The Lin family home.<\/p>\n

Lin\u2019s mother woke up from a nap and checked the time; it was past midnight.<\/p>\n

She got up, left her room, and looked towards her son\u2019s master bedroom. She noticed the door was ajar, meaning her son hadn\u2019t returned yet.<\/p>\n

If he were home, he would close the door at night, not leave it ajar.<\/p>\n

The ajar door meant he wasn\u2019t back.<\/p>\n

Lin\u2019s mother frowned, muttering, \u201cWhere has he gone in the middle of the night? Why isn\u2019t he back yet?\u201d<\/p>\n

She turned back into her room, picked up her phone, and called her son.<\/p>\n

The call connected, but her son didn\u2019t answer.<\/p>\n

After several attempts with the same result, Lin\u2019s mother grew frightened, fearing something had happened to her son. She quickly woke her husband, anxiously saying, \u201cOld Lin, A-Jian hasn\u2019t come home yet, it\u2019s already past midnight.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI called him, the call went through, but he didn\u2019t answer. It\u2019s been like this several times.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCould something have happened to A-Jian?\u201d<\/p>\n

Lin\u2019s father rubbed his eyes, saying, \u201cA-Jian is a grown man, what could have happened to him? He\u2019s probably out drinking with his friends.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCall Yuehua and ask her who A-Jian usually hangs out with.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lin\u2019s mother, disregarding the late hour and the potential disturbance to He Yuehua, immediately called her.<\/p>\n

He Yuehua answered quickly.<\/p>\n

\u201cAuntie, I\u2019m at the bar. Dr. Lin is drinking there, he\u2019s drunk, and the bar staff called me to come pick him up. I just got here. Are you worried about Dr. Lin?\u201dHearing news of her son, Lin\u2019s mother felt relieved, but upon learning he had gone to a bar and drunk heavily, her heart ached again. She said, \u201cHe said he was going out for a walk to clear his head and get some fresh air, why did he go to a bar?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDid he go to the Zeng family again? If he went there, he\u2019d be upset and go to the bar.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYuehua, thank goodness you brought A-Jian back. Otherwise, his father and I would have been worried sick.\u201d<\/p>\n

He Yuehua said, \u201cAuntie, don\u2019t worry, I\u2019ll take Dr. Lin home. Auntie, go to sleep, don\u2019t worry.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis isn\u2019t the first time Dr. Lin has gotten drunk.\u201d Dr.<\/p>\n

Lin had gotten drunk countless times because of Dr. Zeng.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s definitely because of that Zeng woman. She doesn\u2019t even love him, yet he still clings to her. No matter how much we try to persuade him, he won\u2019t listen. She\u2019s already climbed the social ladder, how could she possibly still respect him?\u201d<\/p>\n

Lin\u2019s mother now had a lot of resentment towards Zeng Xiaoya.<\/p>\n

She felt that Zeng Xiaoya\u2019s rejection of her son meant she was materialistic, a gold digger, and looked down on her son.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to see if that Zeng woman can marry into a wealthy family and become a phoenix rising from the ashes. What if she\u2019s rejected and can\u2019t even find a man like me, Ah Jian, and ends up an old spinster? I\u2019d laugh myself to death.\u201d<\/p>\n

He Yuehua didn\u2019t reply.<\/p>\n

No matter what, Dr. Zeng wouldn\u2019t be unable to get married.<\/p>\n

It just depended on whether Dr. Zeng wanted to marry.<\/p>\n

She had such good conditions, such a good family background, and wasn\u2019t bad-looking. If she wanted to marry, plenty of men would line up to marry her.<\/p>\n

\u201cAuntie, I\u2019ll go settle Dr. Lin\u2019s bill first.\u201d<\/p>\n
