When he woke up the next day, Zhong Lingyu found that he was sleeping on the bed.
Shen Huaizhou has disappeared.
He put her into bed while she was asleep and left.
Zhong Lingyu's thoughts were a little confused. She lay on the bed in a daze.
Turning over in annoyance, she noticed that there seemed to be a foreign object under the pillow.
Reaching below, Zhong Lingyu quickly touched a velvet box.
Is this... the ring Shen Huaizhou gave her?
He gave the ring back to her again.
Sighing deeply, the scene of Wen Qingyu crying in Shen Huaizhou's arms flashed across Zhong Lingyu's mind.
When she looked at the velvet box again, she felt inexplicably irritable.
Simply stuff the box at the bottom of the cabinet, out of sight but out of mind.
In the afternoon, Zhong Lingyu went to Chen's house.
Chen Tinglan called her and asked her to see something new.
Zhong Lingyu thought it was something, but it turned out to be just a music box.
Chen Tinglan said: "This is brought back from abroad by my father's friend. When you open it, you can still listen to music."
She turned the switch, and a spring-like tinkling sound sounded, which was indeed pleasant to hear.
Zhong Lingyu was not interested.
She held her chin and asked, "Tinglan, do you know Wen Qingyu?"
"I know her." Chen Tinglan's eyes lit up, "She is a big star. She has made many movies and studied abroad. She is a typical fashionable British lady."
Zhong Lingyu couldn't help but ask: "Do you like her very much?"
"I can't say I like her. After all, I'm not familiar with her." Chen Tinglan said, "I just heard from others that Wen Qingyu is a very kind and gentle girl."
After a pause, she added: "Shen Huaizhou is still her cousin. Her background is not simple."
Zhong Lingyu forced a smile, "That's it."
Chen Tinglan couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Wen Qingyu is probably the most perfect woman I have ever seen. She has a good family background, is beautiful, talented, and has studied abroad... Tsk, I don't know what will happen in the future. Such a man can capture her heart."
As she said that, she suddenly asked: "Lingyu, why did you suddenly ask about Wen Qingyu? It's rare that you are interested in anyone."
Zhong Lingyu's expression remained unchanged as he pointed at the newspaper spread out on the table.
Chen Tinglan stretched his neck and looked over.
In the most conspicuous place of the newspaper, Wen Qingyu's black and white photo was published.
Although it is blurry, it cannot conceal the charm of beauty.
She suddenly realized: "I asked you why you suddenly mentioned Wen Qingyu."
Zhong Lingyu smiled and said: "I'm just curious, just chatting for a few words."
"Stop talking about her, let's go to my eldest brother's study to play."
Chen Tinglan will not miss any opportunity for Zhong Lingyu and Chen Tingze to cultivate their relationship.
She is a very competent matchmaker.
It just happened that Chen Tingze was not there.
Chen Tinglan asked Yunyi where Chen Tingze had gone.
Yun Yi said: "Young master went to visit a friend, it seems he went to the hospital."
*
Chen Tingze did go to the hospital.
He unexpectedly learned that Shen Huaizhou was injured and hospitalized.
As a friend, he naturally wanted to take a look.
Adjutant Li respectfully invited him in.
When he opened the ward door, Shen Huaizhou was leaning on the bed and approving official documents.
Seeing Chen Tingze coming, he put down what he was doing and asked Adjutant Li to make tea.
Then, Shen Huaizhou said: "You came at the right time."
Chen Tingze chuckled, "How do you say this?"
"I haven't had time to tell you yet. A few days ago, my grandmother sent someone to bring me a message, asking me to ask you if you have any plans to get married recently."
"Old lady, do you want to help me connect the dots?"
Shen Huaizhou chuckled, "My grandmother has a distant niece who is eighteen years old and hasn't told her yet. What the old lady means is that she wants to bring you together."
Chen Tingze touched his leg, "The old lady is willing to marry my disabled niece to me?"
"You just can't stand up, but it's not that you are inhumane." Shen Huaizhou's face was not red and his heart was not beating.
Chen Tingze's lips twitched slightly.
Shen Huaizhou said casually: "My grandmother's niece also appreciates your talent. Your legs are not a problem."
"Young Marshal, express my gratitude to the old lady for me. I have no intention of doing so." Chen Tingze declined.
"What, you want to be a bachelor?" Shen Huaizhou raised his eyebrows.
Chen Tingze laughed, "That's not true."
"Have you a sweetheart?" Shen Huaizhou asked again.
Chen Tingze's ears turned red and he drank tea to cover up his shyness.
Shen Huaizhou was very interested, "Which girl is it from?"
"You don't recognize girls from ordinary families." Chen Tingze coughed.
Shen Huaizhou laughed, "When will the wedding be held?"
Chen Tingze's ears turned even redder.
He hadn't expressed his feelings yet, so why did he get involved in happy events.
Putting down the tea cup, he said sheepishly: "I haven't even written my horoscope yet, not to this point. Young Marshal, please be kind and stop teasing me."
"My grandmother was worried about your marriage, but she didn't expect you to have a sweetheart. All her work was in vain. You will have to send some pictures of winter plum blossoms to apologize someday."
Shen Huaizhou behaved like a bandit.
He always wants to search for some good things from Chen Tingze.
Chen Tingze took it for granted. He clasped his fists and said, "When I finish the painting, I will deliver it to my house in person. Thank you to the old lady for your concern."
After hesitating, Shen Huaizhou said: "That's pretty much it!"
