“The Zhan family is a true prestigious family with deep foundations.”
Second Uncle said.
“It’s still early. Hurry upstairs for your lunch break. Even half an hour’s sleep is good.”
Work was busy, so being able to rest a little at midday was already nice.
If she did not rest, she would need coffee to get through the afternoon. Second Uncle thought it was better to drink less coffee and rest more.
“Second Uncle, I’m going upstairs to rest. Later, Zhan Yue will come to pick me up. My car is parked at the hospital. He’ll take me to work.”
Second Uncle smiled. “Don’t worry. Since he said he’d take you to work, he won’t leave without you.”
That young man was much more attentive than Doctor Lin.
Second Uncle compared them in his mind and felt that Zhan Yue had a greater chance of success.
Xiaoya had rejected Doctor Lin several times. Second Uncle sensed that Doctor Lin was starting to back off.
Moreover, after Xiaoya’s rejections, apart from waiting at the clinic, Doctor Lin did not pick her up from the hospital after work or invite her to dinner.
Although Xiaoya would refuse, when a man first pursues a woman, she usually rejects him at the beginning. One cannot give up just because of rejection. Persistence is needed for a while.
Some people take two or three years of pursuit before the woman agrees.
Doctor Lin had only confessed less than two months ago, yet he was already retreating.
Second Uncle sighed inwardly.
Zeng Xiaoya went upstairs to rest.
Second Uncle continued to close his eyes and relax.
Meanwhile, Doctor Lin, on whom he had placed high hopes, was sitting in his living room chatting with his parents.
Originally, he had planned to take his mother for a check-up at the hospital today, but since his parents arrived too late, he had not booked a slot in advance for her. It was changed to tomorrow.
He had also booked Zeng Xiaoya’s slot for his mother, hoping to let her interact with Xiaoya again. Even if brief, it would allow his mother to see the difference between Zeng Xiaoya and He Yuehua.
This morning, the Lin family clinic was closed. He took his parents around Guancheng for half the day and bought them many things to take back home.
Besides gifts for his parents, he also bought presents for his siblings and some particularly close relatives to take back.
His parents said he was spending too much money, but their faces were full of gratification.
They felt he was filial and knew how to conduct himself. Even though his life was better now, he had not forgotten the relatives back home.
After all, when paying for his education years ago, they had borrowed money from those relatives to cover his tuition.
Since the clinic was closed, He Yuehua naturally did not need to work. She joined the Lin family trio for shopping. Lin’s mother actually quite liked He Yuehua, finding the girl capable and caring.
Although Zeng Xiaoya came from a good family background and her son liked her, Zeng Xiaoya would not treat the Lin family the way He Yuehua did.
Lin’s mother thought far ahead, considering future matters. If her son successfully won the beauty.
In the future, when they came to the city for medical treatment or wanted to stay with him for a while, they would probably have to watch Zeng Xiaoya’s mood. Xiaoya was busy with work and could not care for them like He Yuehua.
She certainly would not buy groceries and cook for them. When it came to living daily life, she preferred He Yuehua.
For family background, of course Zeng Xiaoya was better.
But every time they came to the city, Zeng Xiaoya had never proactively visited them, let alone bought them gifts or treated them to a meal.
