Dad is already old now. Who would be willing to leave his hometown at this time?

The two continued talking, thinking they were arguing in low voices, but they didn't expect to be overheard by the four people next door.

Gu Lin also reacted at this time and asked in a low voice: "A Yan, are they talking about..."

Gu Yan raised his right index finger to his lips, hushed, and said in a low voice: "Brother, don't rush to talk, just listen."

Gu Lin quickly shut up and listened attentively.

From the argument between the two, Gu Yan and the other three learned something.

The owner of the pastry shop, the Zheng family, is moving their entire family to Hongzhou for development and is going to sell all their properties here.

This old man is the master chef of that pastry shop, and his daughter also helps out in the shop.

But for various reasons, the old man was unwilling to leave Jiangzhou with his master, which meant he would lose his job.

He was worried that if he lost his job, his daughter would be looked down upon and would not be able to find a good job.

It just so happened that another admirer of his daughter was pursuing her relentlessly. As men should get married when they are old enough and women should get married when they are old enough, the old man wanted his daughter to marry this man for some security.

But it was obvious that the girl didn't want to get married and seemed to want to work harder in her career. The two had been arguing since just now.

After Gu Yan and the others understood, they also held a small meeting.

"Brother, if we take over this pastry shop, can we bring this chef back to continue making pastries?"

Gu Yan nodded slightly, "However, we still need to get to know this person first."

Ji Wenzheng said: "This dim sum shop is indeed famous. I have heard that their head chef seems to be surnamed Lin. I wonder if it is this old man."

"However, I should know the Mr. Li they are talking about." Ji Wen Zheng suddenly said.

Oh? The other three looked at him intently.

Ji Wenzheng spoke again, "If it's Mr. Li Yang, the Third Young Master of Xianshui Lane, then it should be the one."

Gu Lin looked at Ji Wenzhen like this and it was obvious that something was wrong. "How about that person?" he asked curiously.

Ji Wen Zheng shook his head and said with a look of regret: "Ah! He is a playboy. Any good girl will be in trouble if she marries him!

That person is good at eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, and has a very bad reputation among the people. He is definitely not a good person!"

Gu Qingzhi couldn't bear to hear a good girl suffer any misfortune, so now that she knew about it, she had to take care of this trivial matter.

However, the main reason was that she wanted to recruit the talent of Mr. Lin.

So she told Gu Yan and Gu Lin her idea.

After hearing Gu Qingzhi's idea, Gu Yan couldn't help but chuckle, "Sister, you are really smart. This is a great idea."

Gu Lin said helplessly: "Just pamper her."

Gu Yan curled his lips and retorted: "Brother, you are the same, let's not say anything about each other."

After the discussion, Ji Wenzheng walked to the door of the compartment, looked at the father and daughter inside, and asked gently, "What were you talking about just now?"

Uncle Lin was startled and stood up quickly, looking at Ji Wenzheng warily: "Sir, who are you? Why did you break into our private room?"

"I was passing by here and heard that you were going to marry your daughter to a playboy, so I came in to ask about the situation." Ji Wenzheng smiled and spoke in a calm tone.

"What does it have to do with you?" The old man glared at Ji Wen Zheng. "This is our family's private matter. We don't need outsiders to interfere."

"But I can't just watch an innocent woman jump into the fire."

Ji Wen was looking at the woman behind the old man. She was pretty and charming, but her eyes were red and her face was full of grievance.

"Are you talking about Mr. Li Yang from Xianshui Lane?" Ji Wen Zheng suddenly asked.

"My dear, please stop interfering." The woman also spoke, but avoided answering Ji Wenzhen's question.

“I know you mean well, but this is my fate.” The woman’s voice was low, her expression full of helplessness and sadness.

"Fate? What fate?" Ji Wenzheng sneered, his tone full of sarcasm: "Do you think marrying this man is a good fate? Do you know who that Li Langjun is?"

"Of course I know." The woman bit her lip, lowered her head, and a trace of despair flashed in her eyes.

"But do I have any other choice?" the woman murmured to herself. She just found out that her father's favorite disciple had replaced her father and followed the master to Hongzhou. She couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.

As Uncle Lin listened, he felt something was wrong. He suppressed his anger and asked, "Sir, who was that Mr. Li you just mentioned?"

Ji Wenzhen looked at him carefully, and after making sure that his expression was not fake, he felt slightly relieved.

He said, even a tiger does not eat its own cubs, so how could anyone push his own good daughter into a fire pit?

"Old man, if you are talking about Mr. Li Yang from Xianshui County, then I advise you not to marry your daughter to him."

Ji Wenzheng said earnestly, "He has quite a few female confidantes in the building."

When Lin Ruoyu heard these words, her heart sank.

She couldn't help but think that this man seemed gentle and polite on the surface, but was actually so terrible on the inside. It was really disappointing.

She sighed to herself, her heart filled with worry about the future.

At this moment, Ji Wenzheng suddenly stopped, looked at Lin Ruoyu deeply, and then said: "Actually, I don't want you to marry such a person."

Lin Ruoyu looked up in surprise and looked at Ji Wenzhen. She didn't understand why he would say such a thing.

Ji Wenzheng shook his head slowly and continued, "I just feel that if a woman marries a man who is not worthy of her lifelong trust, then her life will become very miserable.

And I don’t want to see that happen to you.”

After hearing these words, Lin Ruoyu was suddenly moved.

She looked at Ji Wenzheng gratefully and said softly, "Thank you, but what can I do?

My fate is determined and cannot be changed."

Ji Wenzheng smiled slightly, and then told Lin Ruoyu: "Actually, you still have room for choice.

If you don't want to marry that man, then stand up bravely and resist this marriage!"

Lin Ruoyu widened her eyes and asked in disbelief: "But, what should I do?"

Ji Wenzheng smiled mysteriously, and then told Lin Ruoyu: "You can try to understand the true face of that man.

If he is really as bad as the legend says, then you can completely refuse this marriage.

After all, marriage is a lifelong event and should not be taken lightly.”

After listening to Ji Wen Zheng's advice, Lin Ruoyu gradually had some ideas in her mind.
