Hua Qingyin was Long Zilin's fiancée?
This answer certainly surprised Shu Yimo; he hadn't expected such a connection.
No wonder Hua Qingyin appeared to be very familiar with this man. Presumably, the man was looking out for her out of respect for his brother, so…
"After Zilin died, the engagement came to nothing," he said.
Long Chengyu, of course, didn't mention that, after Long Zilin's death, the Hua Family had considered turning their attention to him. That was a mistake he would never make, not just as a matter of self-respect, but also out of respect for the deceased.
"The dead are gone; don't be too sad. What's important is taking good care of your brother's parents," Shu Yimo didn't know quite how to comfort him, and after thinking for a moment, that was all she could come up with.
