Lin Qiu, because of the presence of her older sister's husband Lu Zheng, didn't feel it was appropriate to bring up Wu Zhengyang's matter in person.
It was Song Zhiya who, while Lin Qiu was going to the clothing store to start the stove, mentioned it to Lin Xia,
"That Wu Zhengyang somehow heard about Lin Qiu dating someone; he even had the audacity to come over and ask… and he wanted to have a few words alone with Lin Qiu…" Song Zhiya paused intentionally at this point, playing coy.
Upon hearing this, how could Lin Xia not be anxious? She asked urgently, "Cousin! What happened then? Keep talking!"
Back in the provincial city, she wasn't very worried about the family's business; it was Lin Qiu she was most concerned about.
Originally, when Lin Qiu went to her maternal grandfather's house and was away from the Wu Family, there wasn't too much concern.
