Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

After dinner, Lu Jinnan took Su Xue and the three of them returned to the Lu family home.

After dinner, Su Yu went straight back to his room. Su's mother was overjoyed and urged him to hurry up and get to know Dr. Han better so that he could be brought home as soon as possible.

She paced around the room in her pajamas, holding her phone, wanting to make a call but hesitating.

Mr. Su opened the door and came in. Seeing his wife pacing back and forth, she looked very uneasy, her brows furrowed. "Why are you spinning like a top? Don't you get dizzy?"

Seeing her husband come in, Su's mother began to discuss, "Do you think we should help our son? I always feel that he's not very good at this, and I'm afraid he'll seduce Dr. Han. Should we go and find Dr. Han?"

After taking a shower, Su's father went straight to the bedside, lifted the covers and sat down. "You're just worrying unnecessarily. If you keep making trouble, you might actually help your son get back to being single."

"I just wanted to ask Dr. Han about her preferences. I'm worried that my son is weak in this area and doesn't know how to talk. How could that be harmful to my son?"

Su's mother felt a little wronged. She was anxious and hoped her son would succeed. She glared angrily at her husband.

Su's father felt uneasy under the glare and hurriedly explained, "That's not what I meant. What I meant was that you should listen to your son and not go looking for that girl. They've just gotten together, their relationship isn't stable, and they're still getting to know each other. If you're too enthusiastic and try to make your presence felt, it will inevitably affect them. If you have any questions, you can ask Xiaoxue. Isn't Xiaoxue friends with Dr. Han? You can ask Xue'er to put in a good word for them. It's not good for an elder like you to get involved."

"Relationships are a matter of fate. If they don't get along, they will definitely separate. It's unrealistic to force them to be together. So the best way is to let them develop naturally. Honey, you can relax. Don't you trust your son to do things?"

Su's father earnestly advised him.

Su's mother felt that her husband was right, but she couldn't completely agree with him. She had thought that her son and Yao Yao would get together, but she listened to Su's father and didn't interfere. Now she's someone else's wife.

"My son is just too sensible. He knows his limits perfectly. If he were as shameless as my son-in-law when it comes to women and just went straight for Dr. Han, I'm telling you, we'd be grandparents by now. But I'll still have to help out a little. Don't worry, I won't go after Dr. Han."

Su's father: "..............."

He patted his phone in his palm, and finally decided to share it with his mother, saying, "You go to sleep first, I'll make a call to my in-laws."

As she spoke, Su's mother sat down on the edge of the bed. Seeing that he couldn't control or persuade her, Su's father gave up and calmly picked up a book to read, still not intending to get involved.

The call was answered quickly. "Hey, in-law, I have some good news to tell you."

Lu's mother, who always enjoyed gossiping, hurriedly said, "Tell me, tell me, what good news is it?"

Unable to contain her excitement, Su's mother exclaimed, "Our Xiaoyu has found a beautiful girlfriend with a great job. She's beautiful and kind."

Mrs. Lu was surprised, her voice rising several decibels, "Really? That's wonderful! Which family's daughter is she?"

"She's a pediatrician at the Imperial Hospital, the little girl who came to help Yueyue when she was sick last time. But that's not the point. The most troublesome thing now is that this girl is the Han family's daughter."

"Do you think the Han family will agree to this marriage? Our Su Yu is a bit old; Xiaoxue said there's a four-year age gap, which I think is fine. The main issue is whether the Han family will agree. Do you know anything about the Han family?"

Mrs. Lu thought she had misheard. The Han family did have a daughter, but she had gone abroad a long time ago. She had seen her when she was a child, but hadn't seen her since. She couldn't believe that the person she had seen last time was the Han family's daughter. She asked again, "Are you sure it's the Han family's daughter?"

"Xiaoxue is right."

This time, Su's mother gave a very affirmative answer.

The two talked for about an hour, and in the end, the task of finding out the information fell to Lu's mother.

Gossip.

At the Lu family home, Lu's mother had just lain down in bed when she threw back the covers and got out, leaving Lu's father, who was still in bed, looking puzzled. "Where are you going so late at night?"

"I'm going to ask Xiao Nan something, don't worry about it."

Mr. Lu reminded his unreliable wife, "Why are you looking for Xiao Nan so late at night? Xiao Xue is probably resting too, and you'll wake her up."

The whole family doted on Su Xue like a treasure. After glancing at her sleeping granddaughter beside her, Lu's mother finally decided not to knock on the door, but instead sent a text message: Come over here for a moment.

A few minutes later, Lu Jinnan knocked on his mother's door, "Mom."

Lu's mother hurriedly opened the door, pulled Lu Jinnan in, and asked bluntly, "Is your brother-in-law dating the Han family's daughter?"

"Is she Han Yue's younger sister?"

Lu Jinnan was annoyed. They talked about this while having dinner at the Su family's house, and now that they were about to go to sleep, they were talking about it again in the middle of the night. What was going on? "Hmm."

Lu's mother instructed, "When you have free time, go and sound out Han Yue's opinion. Your mother-in-law can't sleep at night until this matter is settled, so I'm leaving this to you."

The ball was finally passed to Lu Jinnan, and Lu's father sat on the bed with a meaningful smile.

Lu Jinnan was definitely unwilling to accept this job. Han Yue's mouth was as sticky as if it were glued shut, making it difficult to ask any questions. "No, Mom, wait a minute. My brother-in-law is dating, not me. Why should I be responsible for this?"

"It's a shame your mother-in-law is so good to you, but she won't even help with something as simple as this. You could have subtly inquired whether Han Yue knows that his sister is dating Su Yu, and then asked what he thinks. This task is so simple, even Yueyue could complete it, you can't possibly not be able to complete it, can you?"

Lu Jinnan: "........."

Mr. Lu shook his head, looked up at Lu Jinnan and said, "Your mother-in-law and your mother have already discussed your brother-in-law's marriage, and they've also decided on the baby's gender. Just write that part down for them. Go back to sleep. It's best to give your mother the answer tomorrow morning."

Lu Jinnan was speechless again, "................. Wasn't that a bit too hasty?"

Back in his room, Lu Jinnan was speechless. He'd been abruptly assigned a task, scratched his head, glanced at Su Xue who was already asleep on the bed, went to the balcony, dialed Han Yue's number, and began speaking in his usual nonchalant, teasing tone, "Aren't you coming back yet?"

At this moment, Han Yue accompanied Lan Yunxi back from the amusement park. He was on the balcony, while Lan Yunxi was taking a shower inside.

Han Yue held the phone to his ear and replied casually, "Get to the point, don't give me any preamble."

This suddenly piqued Lu Jinnan's interest. "This tone is strange. Didn't Ye Guo broadcast your successful proposal live? Could it be that your desires are unsatisfied and your little princess didn't give in to you?"

"Get lost."

Lu Jinnan chuckled slyly, "Hahaha, you really are sexually frustrated."

"It's better than your wooden fish drumming. I'm hanging up now."

The guy who's striking the wooden fish, damn it, isn't that just showing off? Is he implying that he's unhappy?

Seeing that the other party was about to hang up, he quickly stopped them. Lu Jinnan had made this call on a mission; on one side was his mother-in-law, and on the other was his own mother—he couldn't afford to offend either. "Can I ask you something?"

Han Yue said impatiently, glancing at the room. The little girl would be coming out soon, and he needed to dry his hair. "What the hell is your surname, toothpaste or poop? Can you just say it all at once? Save your phone bill for baby formula."

Lu Jinnan automatically ignored Han Yue's nonsense, not wanting to get angry, and asked, "Did you know that Guoguo is dating Su Yu?"

Of course, I found out last night. "Yeah."

Seeing that Han Yue didn't seem to have any temper, Lu Jinnan was quite puzzled. Wasn't she his younger sister? Wasn't he supposed to be a doting brother? "You just agreed like that? Aren't you going to beat up Su Yu?"

Han Yue paused for a few seconds after hearing this, then quickly replied with a smile, "Did Su Yu beat you up?"

Lu Jinnan: "............"

This is something that absolutely cannot be admitted. "How could that be? I just feel that Guoguo shouldn't be so easily fooled. You should at least act like an older brother; that's how you show your status as an older brother, isn't it?"

Han Yue was already quite certain that Lu Jinnan was there to smear Su Yu and get revenge. If he suddenly beat Su Yu up, Han Guoguo would definitely argue with him. "I will never use force if I can solve a problem with words. Xiao Xi doesn't like me fighting."

Lu Jinnan's attempt to sow discord failed: "............."

Unable to stand Han Yue's cheeky attitude, just as she was about to retort, a soft, sweet voice came from the phone, "Brother Yue, I forgot my pajamas, you............"

Before Lu Jinnan could finish listening, Han Yue had already hung up the phone without any mercy. His attempt to sow discord had failed, and he had ended up being fed a dose of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).

Lu Jinnan felt a thousand curses raging in his heart.

However, it wasn't entirely a failure. At least we know Han Yue isn't against it, which is something we can reassure both mothers about.

After hanging up the phone, Han Yue took the girl's pajamas inside. Even though the two had already had a deep conversation, Lan Yunxi was still shy in the bright light. The bathroom door was only slightly ajar, with only a fair hand sticking out.

Han Yue placed the pajamas in her hands, grinned mischievously, and teased, "Need my help?"

The expected refusal came immediately from inside: "No, no, I'll be done in a minute."

My phone chimed, and a message popped up in the group chat. It was from Lu Jinnan: "Congratulations to our CEO Han for eating meat for the first time in 29 years! Celebrate! Hooray!"

Ji Hancheng casually added: Not bad, how does it taste?

Lu Jinnan: Han Yue, you didn't fail to find the door the first time, did you?

Ji Hancheng felt he was being subtly mocked; he was the one who hadn't found the door, but he couldn't answer the question, so he played dead.

Han Yue: If you're going crazy holding it in, go to the toilet and take care of it yourself. Don't let yourself lose your intelligence by holding it in.

Lu Jinnan wasn't angry at all: "If you're angry and you care, it means things aren't going very smoothly. Just practice more and you'll get the hang of it. I'll share my experience for free, no charge. Ask me anytime."

Ji Hancheng: Is it any of your business?

You have to ask him about the twins, Han Yue must be crazy to ask about the singletons.

Han Yue was about to reply to the pointless chatter in the group when he saw the young girl emerge from the bathroom, her bare feet exposed.
