Chapter 321 - Forced Marriage!

Zhou Yu had decided to go to Haizhou, but he didn’t leave immediately.

After all, having been away for nearly half a month, returning to Yancheng, it would be unreasonable not to visit the Lin Family first.

Zhou Yu informed Shui Tianyue and Qin Lan that he would go to the Lin Family first.

Shui Tianyue didn’t mind and expressed understanding.

But Qin Lan clung tightly to Zhou Yu’s hand, clearly not planning to let go.

Zhou Yu wore a bitter smile on his face.

Could it be that he had to take Qin Lan back with him?

Zhou Yu couldn’t imagine, after being away for half a month, coming back and bringing another girl with him, what the old Mr.

Lin and the others would think.

Zhou Yu looked to Shui Tianyue for help.

Shui Tianyue gave Zhou Yu a look that was both amused and mocking.

You got yourself into this mess; deal with it yourself.

Zhou Yu, having no choice, braced himself and returned to the Lin Family with Qin Lan in tow.

It was past nine in the evening at the Lin Family villa.

Old Mr.

Lin, Lu Wuya, Lin Wanhao, and others were drinking tea.

Zhou Yu came back with Qin Lan.

Old Mr.

Lin and the others were surprised at first, then showed delighted expressions.

“Zhou Yu, you’re back?

Why didn’t you tell us in advance, I would have sent a car to pick you up.”

Zhou Yu smiled slightly.

“Grandpa, I came back in the morning; there was some delay due to a matter.”

Lin Wanhao’s gaze immediately fell on Qin Lan next to Zhou Yu.

He saw that Qin Lan was not inferior to his daughter Lin Luoluo in terms of looks, temperament, or figure, and the two of them looked so intimate, which immediately made him tense.

“Zhou Yu, who is this young lady?”

Zhou Yu hurriedly introduced her.

“Grandpa, Uncle Lin, she is Qin Lan.

She suffered some accidents and now has severe psychological issues.

She has been with me recently for treatment.”

Lin Chaodong and Lin Wanhao exchanged a glance, both discerning worry in each other’s eyes.

Lin Chaodong cleared his throat.

“Zhou Yu, was your trip to Wu City smooth?”

Zhou Yu laughed, “Grandpa, rest assured, it went very smoothly.”

“That’s good.”

“By the way, Zhou Yu, if you calculate the time, you have been with the Lin Family for almost half a year now.”

“Do you remember what you promised me when you first came to the Lin Family half a year ago?”

Zhou Yu was startled.

“Grandpa, what are you referring to?”

Lin Chaodong looked helpless.

“When you first came to the Lin Family, I wanted you to marry Luoluo.

You asked for three months to get to know each other.

I did not want to agree, but in the end, I respected your wishes.”

“Now three months have passed, right?

This matter was decided by me and your uncle.

I think, since you are back this time, we should just hold your wedding first.”

Lin Wanhao also chimed in:

“Yes, yes.”

“Both of you are not getting any younger, it’s time to get married.”

Zhou Yu’s eye twitched slightly.

Why did Lin Chaodong and Lin Wanhao bring this up now?

Could it be…

Zhou Yu glanced at Qin Lan beside him.

He had already guessed it.

Zhou Yu said with a bitter smile:

“Grandpa, Uncle Lin, I’m afraid this matter still needs to be discussed with Luoluo.”

“Making a unilateral decision is probably not appropriate.”

“What’s inappropriate about it?

I’m going to tell Luoluo right now.”

Lin Wanhao rushed upstairs in a hurry.

Zhou Yu went over to Lin Chaodong and sat down.

After he settled, he looked at Lin Chaodong.

“Grandpa, when I went to Wucheng this time, I happened to meet someone who brought up something to me…”

Zhou Yu briefly mentioned his encounter with Mr.

Xie, but he did not reveal Mr.

Xie’s identity and power to avoid causing Lin Chaodong any worry.

However, Zhou Yu did hint at the issue of the Lin Family offending a major power in the Capital City.

Zhou Yu wanted to understand the full story behind this matter.

After listening, Lin Chaodong burst out laughing.

“Haha, I never thought that there would be people in Wucheng spreading rumors about our Lin Family.

It’s ridiculous.”

“Our Lin Family is a tiny clan.

How could we possibly offend any power in the Capital City?

That’s all absurd.”

Although Lin Chaodong appeared relaxed, Zhou Yu keenly noticed that Lin Chaodong’s heartbeat and breathing rhythm had changed.

He was hiding something.

Zhou Yu understood this in his heart.

It seemed there really was an issue, but since Lin Chaodong wasn’t talking, there was nothing he could do.

He couldn’t exactly force the answers out of him.

It looked like he would have to investigate this matter from other sources.

Right at this moment, Lin Wanhao came downstairs, followed by Lin Luoluo.

Lin Luoluo’s face was expressionless, but her eyes were filled with anger.

After she came down, her gaze fell on Qin Lan.

Seeing Qin Lan sitting close beside Zhou Yu.

And also, Qin Lan’s every aspect seemed even more outstanding than hers.

Lin Luoluo suddenly found it hard to suppress her anger.

“No wonder there was no word from you for half a month.

It seems you’re so happy you’ve forgotten to return home.”

Pfft!

Zhou Yu had just taken a sip of tea and sprayed it out.

What the heck?

What’s this about being so happy you’ve forgotten to return home?

Lin Chaodong quickly signaled to Lin Wanhao to soothe Lin Luoluo.

Lin Wanhao discreetly pulled at Lin Luoluo, and then everyone took their seats.

Lin Chaodong cleared his throat.

“Ahem, here’s the thing, Luoluo, Zhou Yu, you two have been together for nearly half a year now, and your dad and I think it’s time to settle your marriage.”

“How about this, I’ll find someone to pick a date tomorrow, and you two should get married.”

No sooner had Lin Chaodong finished speaking than Lin Luoluo coldly said,

“I won’t marry him.

Let him marry whoever he wants.”

Obviously, Lin Luoluo was jealous.

Lin Chaodong and Lin Wanhao both wore a look of helplessness, especially Lin Wanhao.

He had just taken the time to explain Qin Lan’s situation to Lin Luoluo upstairs, and yet she still couldn’t control her emotions.

Lin Wanhao discreetly pulled at Lin Luoluo again.

He glared at her.

Did this girl have no sense of crisis at all?

Lin Chaodong was also getting anxious.

Such a good grandson-in-law, he did not want to just hand him over to someone else.

Lin Chaodong signaled to Zhou Yu, suggesting Zhou Yu say something pleasant.

Zhou Yu scratched his head; this was something he was particularly bad at.

To be honest, he really didn’t know what to do.

At this moment, Qin Lan, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up.

“Um, Miss Lin, don’t misunderstand, I…

I’ve been having nightmares often, and I can only feel at ease when I’m with Zhou Yu.”

“I think, I will get better soon.”
