“The Gu family is powerful and influential. You won’t suffer if you marry into it. I went to so much trouble to arrange this marriage for you…”
Lin Nian had lost count of how many times her mother had urged her to marry. In the past, she always found one excuse or another to put it off.
But this time, before her mother could finish, Lin Nian agreed. “All right. I’ll come home and get married.”
Her mother seemed surprised that Lin Nian had agreed so readily.
After a long pause, she spoke in a warning tone. “Qingyu and Tingxuan are engaged now, and things are going well between them. You’d better stop entertaining any thoughts you shouldn’t have.”
Lin Nian could only offer a helpless smile. “Don’t worry, Mom. As soon as the graduation ceremony is over, I’ll come straight home to get married.”
Once she fulfilled this marriage arrangement, she would have repaid everything she owed the Lin family.
