"Mm."
"Shaoze has always kept you on his mind, even if he doesn't say it."
"Mom, don't tell me you've been bought over just because he sent something!" She looked incredulous.

"Even if I were bought over, wouldn't that be normal? Your dad and I never insisted on finding you a perfect match in terms of family status. As long as his family background is acceptable and he treats you well enough, that's the ideal son-in-law for us. Clearly, Leng Shaoze has already met that standard, and his conditions are much better than what we expected."
"But it's impossible for us now."
"Yes, that's what you think, but I can see that you're not as indifferent towards him as you were before. Everyone's heart is made of flesh. Can you really say you have no feelings for him at all?"
