Even without him, Dr. Lin wouldn\u2019t have been able to win Xiaoya\u2019s heart. Xiaoya was a clear-headed person.<\/p>\n<p>She came from a good family and was capable herself, unlike Miss He.<\/p>\n<p>He Yuehua chose Dr. Lin because she genuinely liked him and because of his abilities. If Dr. Lin didn\u2019t have earning power, Miss He might not have chosen him.<\/p>\n<p>Miss He\u2019s family background was somewhat similar to Dr. Lin\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>After drinking half a cup of coffee, Dr. Lin said softly, \u201cI know where I lost. Before, I really thought I wasn\u2019t as handsome or as rich as you, so I lost to you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUntil my parents came, I slowly realized it. My dad didn\u2019t say anything bad about Xiaoya, but he said that in terms of daily life, Yuehua is more suitable for me than Xiaoya.\u201d \u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said Xiaoya is too busy with work and comes from a good family; she won\u2019t be able to do my laundry, cook for me, or take care of me as meticulously as Yuehua. He said if I were with Xiaoya, I would need to give more.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Lin sighed. \u201cI admit my parents are selfish, only thinking of me, but what parent doesn\u2019t think of their own child?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy mom said a lot\u2026 Mr. Zhan, I didn\u2019t come to see you tonight to talk about these things. I know I have no hope. Even if you haven\u2019t confessed to Xiaoya, you might not be able to marry her.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I know that once you confess, your chances of winning Xiaoya\u2019s heart are much higher than mine, and you might end up winning her heart.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to ask you, are you truly sincere towards Xiaoya? Have you considered the real gap between you two? Do your family members approve of your relationship with Xiaoya?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Lin said, \u201cXiaoya and I have known each other for so many years. Even if we can\u2019t be husband and wife, we\u2019ll still be senior and junior classmates. I hope her future is truly happy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI hope she marries a man who truly loves her and accepts everything about her.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cXiaoya is very busy with work, as you and I both know. She might not have much time to devote to her family in the future, so she needs to find a man willing to make sacrifices for the family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOr a man who doesn\u2019t require her to manage household affairs. You\u2019re rich, with a whole bunch of servants at home. If she marries you, she\u2019ll be a pampered housewife, free from the responsibilities of a wealthy young lady, and can focus on her work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYour conditions are very suitable for her. You\u2019re also very handsome. Actually, regardless of gender, looks matter. Handsome men and beautiful women are pleasing to the eye.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf Mr. Zhan truly loves Xiaoya and promises to only treat her well in the future, then I\u2019ll withdraw from the competition and wish you and Xiaoya well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf Mr. Zhan is just looking for something new, playing around, and doesn\u2019t want to take responsibility, or if he won her over and then discards her carelessly, then I will still fight Mr. Zhan to the end.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Lin\u2019s words were sincere.<\/p>\n<p>Giving up the girl he had loved for several years was more painful than death.<\/p>\n<p>But he also understood the situation clearly, knowing he had no advantage and that Xiaoya\u2019s heart wasn\u2019t with him.<\/p>\n<p>Even if he pursued her for several more years, Xiaoya still wouldn\u2019t love him.<\/p>\n<p>His parents were pressuring him, and his age was indeed too young to wait any longer. He also lacked the resolve to remain unmarried for Xiaoya\u2019s sake, so he had no choice but to withdraw. He would allow<\/p>\n<p>Zhan Yue and Xiaoya to be together, as long as Zhan Yue\u2019s feelings for Xiaoya were genuine.<\/p>\n<p>Zhan Yue said, \u201cMy feelings for Xiaoya are absolutely genuine. I\u2019m a very loyal person when it comes to relationships. Dr. Lin should have heard that men in the Zhan family are faithful to their partners in love and marriage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnce a man in the Zhan family falls in love, it\u2019s for life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy elders are very open-minded; they won\u2019t interfere. As long as we like someone, they will accept the person we like and respect our decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>His parents had met Zeng Xiaoya today, and it was clear that they were very satisfied with her.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The coffee and juice they ordered arrived.
