《Return To The Past: I Won't Choose Humility This Time!》Chapter 74: Reject
Advertisement
"Stop crying. What's there to cry about?" Old Master Zhou glared at Yun Lian, who had been crying the entire time. "What my daughter-in-law said isn't wrong either. You have the air of a petty person. You cry whenever something happens, and it really annoys me. If anyone marries someone like you, their family would probably have no peace at all!"
Old Master Zhou was quite old, after all. Logically speaking, some of the words he said had to be forgiven. Nonetheless, he was really annoyed by the noisy cries today, so he could not care less about the friendship between him and Old Master Yun. He immediately criticized Yun Lian, who had always pretended to be weak.
After breaking off the engagement with the Yun family, it was Qian Yun's family's business to find a daughter-in-law for her son. Old Master Zhou did not want to interfere.
Even so, Old Master Zhou also felt that this crying girl was not worthy of his grandson. This time, he chose to stand on the side of his daughter-in-law.
Yun Lian thought that she had done everything flawlessly, but she was suddenly scolded by the most authoritative elder in the family. She was very unwilling to accept this.
Even Zhou Mo could not say anything in front of Old Master Zhou. Yun Lian was not stupid enough to go against the most authoritative old master in the family. She could only shut her mouth embarrassedly.
Zhou Lin, who had been dealing with official business in the study, was also annoyed by the chattering voices of these women. He wanted to go out and see if his sweetheart had been affected by the women's bickering.
Qian Yun, who was sitting on the outermost side, was the first person to see Zhou Lin walk out of the study. She was the first to go up and greet him. "Zhou Lin, you're at home! Pingping, this is Momo's little uncle. You can call him that as well."

"Hello, Little Uncle."
Jiang Ping followed Qian Yun's instructions and obediently greeted Zhou Lin.
Qian Yun also attached great importance to her relationship with Zhou Lin. Zhou Lin was young and promising. He would definitely be able to hold a higher position in the military region in the future. This way, Zhou Lin's influence would be able to help her husband manage some places in the business world. The Zhou family would then have both money and power. Qian Yun would be able to enjoy her life at home without any worries. Therefore, ever since Zhou Mo mentioned it yesterday, Qian Yun had always taken it to heart to introduce a high-quality young lady to her brother-in-law. Taking advantage of the time she brought Jiang Ping to her hometown, she wanted to settle Zhou Lin's marriage as well. She completely did not notice Yun Xi, who was quietly eating on the other end. "Sister-in-law."
This was considered a simple greeting. Zhou Lin was not a talkative person in front of outsiders, to begin with. Even in front of his big sister-in-law, he was the same.
Zhou Lin walked a few steps and sat next to Yun Xi. Seeing his girlfriend eating heartily, he suddenly had a desire to caress her little head.
Yun Xi saw this man sitting next to her and used a toothpick to prick a piece of melon and handed it to him. For some reason, when the man sat next to her, she felt extremely safe.
It was as if something was protecting her from behind.
Zhou Lin took the melon and took a bite.
The melon melted as soon as it entered his mouth. It was so sweet. Zhou Lin sighed internally and thought, 'The melon won my heart indeed.'
"Pingping, I remember that you said that the daughter of the Lu family came back with you this time. Is she still in our city now? When you have the chance, bring her out to play. I'll bring you guys to eat something delicious." Before coming, Qian Yun had heard from Jiang Ping that there were many young daughters of various groups in the city. In the end, the young lady from the Lu family was lucky enough to stand out and get Qian Yun's favor. Qian Yun was ready to introduce her to Zhou Lin.

When that time came, would the Lu Group not be able to help the Zhou Group to a greater height?!
"Okay, Auntie. Next time I have the chance, I'll bring her out to play."
"Oh, don't you think it's such a coincidence? Zhou Lin has reached the time for him to get to know a few more young ladies. In a few days, I'll host a dinner and invite Miss Lu over to connect with Zhou Lin."
Qian Yun thought about her little plan and planned everything beautifully according to her intention.
"There's no need."
Zhou Lin spoke straightforwardly and rejected Qian Yun's "good intention.".

The Vow
Ever since Aster’s mother died, home no longer feels like home. Now, she’s little more than a prisoner behind gilded bars; her father growing more distant by the day, her best friend missing and possibly left for dead. So when a letter from the royal family arrives, inviting her to stay in the palace, Aster agrees. She’s only been to the palace once, a memory she’s replayed countless times in her head, during her first fateful encounter with her fiancé. But when she comes face to face with Florian once more, he’s cold and apathetic; a far cry from the boy she used to dream of. As Aster struggles to come to terms with Florian’s new demeanour, life in the palace reveals more than it’s rose covered façade. The maze within its gardens hides thorns that cut deep, and the spirits who call it home want nothing more than to see her go.
