Zhou Weiming fell into deep thought.
Outside, Liu Qing, who had dragged Gu Lingling out, was also pouring out her grievances.
"He's the hot commodity in our family now," Liu Qing said mockingly. "I don't even know what my cousin told Grandfather, but the family's attitude now is: let him choose, whoever he likes, he'll marry into that branch."
"Isn't that ridiculous? So I've become Chinese cabbage now, just waiting for him to pick?"
Gu Lingling had heard Yang Yunhai mention the childhood engagement between the Zhou Family and the Liu Family, and she'd even heard Liu Qing complain a bit about some of the shady stuff in the Liu Family.
She just hadn't expected it to be this… complicated.
"Of all the people he won't smile at, he has to smile at my cousin. Great, now she's taken a fancy to him," Liu Qing said with a faint smile. "Usually he pretends to be a walking iceberg."
At first she'd been strongly against the arranged marriage, but later she'd gradually accepted it.
