Zhang Lin's words, which were unexpected twice in a row, silenced the room.
Qin Jiayan looked at Mother Qin and Qin Zhi 'ai. After a while, he nodded at Zhang Lin and said in a gentle voice, "Okay." Then he stood up from the sofa.
Zhang Lin pointed at the door and led Qin Jiayan into the east room.
The east room was the dining room. After Zhang Lin invited Qin Jiayan to sit down, she poured a pot of water and placed it on the dining table. She poured a cup for Qin Jiayan and herself, then casually found a place to sit at the table.
Zhang Lin held the cup of water and looked at Qin Jiayan for a while. Suddenly, she sighed and said, "This is probably fate. If only you had come to find me two days earlier …"
Zhang Lin's words were a little strange. Qin Jiayan didn't understand, but his heart skipped a beat. "Miss Zhang, what do you mean by that?"
"Mr. Qin, don't be in such a hurry to ask about this. Let me tell you from the beginning."
Qin Jiayan didn't say anything else. He just waited with rapt attention for Zhang Lin to continue.
He didn't know if she was deliberately keeping him in suspense or if he was too impatient, but the few seconds she paused made Qin Jiayan feel like an eternity had passed.
"Su Qing and I are from the same village. We both came from the same village, and our families were the same. We were so poor that we didn't know what to eat next."
Qin Jiayan knew all this. Even though he wanted to know what happened next, he patiently listened to Zhang Lin's foreshadowing.
"I'm different from Su Qing. Su Qing was good at her studies and was sent to school in the city as a top student. I, on the other hand, was penniless and begged for food. I moved from the village to the big city to make a living. Now, this courtyard is my man's home.
"I've found happiness in my current life. Su Qing has been prettier than me since she was young, and I always thought that her final destination would be much better than mine. Who knew that she wasn't a child blessed by the heavens, or rather, she was too stupid."
"When Su Qing first came to Beijing, she often came to look for me. Even though I've never met you, I've heard about you from her many times. She said that you bought her a bowl of beef noodles and that you're the warmest light in her life. After you guys went to Hangzhou to attend university and confirmed your relationship, she called me on a public phone that night to tell me the good news. Even her voice couldn't hide her joy. I was really happy for her. You guys are both from prestigious universities. If you guys really end up together after graduation, your days will definitely be …"
"But good times don't last. One night, in the middle of the night, she suddenly ran to Beijing from Hangzhou to see me. When she saw me, she hugged me and cried. My first instinct was that something had happened between the two of you. Later, I found out that it wasn't a relationship, but both your family and hers were in trouble."
Qin Jiayan looked at Zhang Lin in astonishment.
He knew that something had happened to his family, but he had never heard Su Qing mention that something had happened to her family.
Zhang Lin ignored Qin Jiayan's suspicion and continued to speak. "Su Qing didn't tell you, right? If I hadn't told you today, perhaps you would never have known that when you were at your most tormented, she was also at a loss. Her father rolled down the mountain and broke his leg, so he needed money for medical treatment. "
"Every day, she saw you running around for your mother's medical fees. When she secretly followed you to the hospital, she heard people wanting to kick your mother out of the hospital."
