Madam Zhou's eyes brightened at the words.
She had been worried. After all, someone from a good family with excellent academic performance like me could easily become arrogant.
Unexpectedly, I was so understanding. Where could she find such a good daughter-in-law?
After the banquet, Zhou Jinhua and I walked home together.
Zhou Jinhua looked puzzled.
"Chen Lan, since you spoke up for me, why did you say you don't mind my relationship with Zeng Jia?"
I smiled gently.
"Because I like you, I feel jealous."
"But I hope you are happy."
"Perhaps this way, I can let go of my feelings for you."
My words moved Zhou Jinhua.
"Chen Lan, I want to be with you."
My expression immediately turned cold.
"Zhou Jinhua, do you pity me?"
"Zhou Jinhua, I don't need your pity!"
After saying that, I got into the car to go home.
Only then did Zhou Jinhua realize what was happening and ran after my car.
"Chen Lan, you misunderstood; that's not what I meant!"
"Zhou Jinhua, think it through before coming to find me."
"Otherwise, we don't need to see each other again."
As I spoke, I rolled up the car window.

Zhou Jinhua no longer comes to find me. Many people think that he and I have fallen out. He has contacted me several times privately, but I did not meet him. When he messaged me, I also refused to see him, citing that I was busy. Occasionally, when I encountered him on the road, I pretended not to see him and directly ignored him. In fact, I know that Zhou Jinhua does not want to be with me out of pity. It feels more like a momentary impulse. So I let him take this time to think clearly about what his feelings for Zeng Jia really are. As for his eagerness to explain, the more I avoid seeing him. People always have to make choices; one cannot be too greedy. As long as I resist meeting him, he will be unable to hold back. Now that things have developed to this point, we just have to wait for time.

Zeng Jia arranged to meet me at the school café. As soon as we met, she directly asked me, "Do you know that Zhou Jinhua confessed to me?" I nodded and took a sip of coffee. Seeing my calm demeanor, she seemed a bit anxious: "And it was twice." I put on an envious expression and said, "Then I should congratulate you." "Yeah, you think so too, right? Originally, I wanted Zhou Jinhua to tell you himself, but he was too shy, so I came instead." I lowered my head, my hands trembling slightly as if trying hard to suppress something.
Zeng Jia thought she had succeeded and continued to boast, "Zhou Jinhua loves me very much, but I don't want to define our relationship right now. I want to become better so that I deserve him, and he respects my decision."
I lowered my head and remained silent, as if I had received a heavy blow.
Seeing my expression, Zeng Jia smiled with satisfaction, offered me a few insincere words of comfort, and then left.
Zhou Jinhua soon learned about this matter. He came to find me but was stopped at the door by my Foster Mother.
"Zhou Young Master, I heard you have a girlfriend now. Since that's the case, you shouldn't come looking for our A Lan anymore to avoid misunderstandings."
Zhou Jinhua was anxious and wanted to enter the house. "Auntie, please let me in first. I need to see A Lan!"
Foster Mother blocked him, refusing to let him in. "Zhou Young Master, A Lan is not feeling well and has already gone to bed."
Zhou Jinhua was stubborn. "Then I need to see her even more!"
Foster Mother was exasperated. "You child, why won't you listen!"
I stood at the top of the stairs, my face pale and wearing pajamas, as if I had just been awakened.
"Zhou Jinhua, please stop doing things that make me misunderstand you."
