After hanging up the phone, Dr Lin’s face looked very grim.
He sat down weakly in his chair and stared blankly at the night scene outside the window.
It turned out that Zhan Yue was the young master of the Zhan family, the wealthiest family in the country. No matter his ranking among the brothers, he was still a young master of the Zhan family, a height that Dr Lin could never hope to reach in his entire life.
Zhan Yue certainly knew how to be born into the right family, reincarnated into the richest Zhan household.
No wonder Zhan Yue wanted to buy a house in Wansheng Gardens and could pay for one in full immediately. No wonder he exuded an air of nobility all over him. Even though he did not want to praise his rival in love, Dr Lin had to admit it.
Zhan Yue’s external conditions were simply far superior to his own. Precisely because Zhan Yue was so much better, he felt worried. That was why, whenever he saw Zhan Yue, he would mock him and regard him as one of those who lived off their elder brother and sister-in-law.
Little did he know that he himself was the joke.
The luxury car Zhan Yue drove was, needless to say, bought with his own money. Why would he need to live off his brother and sister-in-law? He had plenty of money himself.
It was a long while before Dr Lin came back to his senses. He immediately rang Zeng Xiaoya.
Zeng Xiaoya had just finished work. She rode her electric scooter out of the hospital and, hearing her phone ring, stopped at the roadside. She took out her phone and saw that the caller was Senior Lin. She sighed inwardly.
Why was it Senior Lin again? She had already made things very clear to him.
Hadn’t Senior Lin spent the afternoon with Miss He, taking his parents to the seaside for fun?
How did he still have time to call her?
After hesitating for a moment, Zeng Xiaoya still answered Dr Lin’s call.
“Senior Lin, what’s the matter?”
“Xiaoya, Zhan Yue has lied to you. He is a big liar!”
The reason Dr Lin called Zeng Xiaoya in such a hurry was to tell tales on Zhan Yue.
Zhan Yue could tell tales, and so could he.
Compared to having a chat with Zhan Yue himself, Zhan Yue’s deception would anger Zeng Xiaoya more.
As long as Xiaoya knew that Zhan Yue had lied to her, she would no longer like him.
Xiaoya hated being deceived by others more than anything.
Zeng Xiaoya was stunned for a moment, then asked, “What did Zhan Yue lie to me about?”
What did she have that was worth Zhan Yue deceiving her for?
“He has lied to you. Do you know who he really is?”
Zeng Xiaoya replied, “What did he lie to me about? Of course I know who he is. He is Zhan Yue.”
Dr Lin let out a sarcastic laugh over the phone. “Xiaoya, yes, his name is Zhan Yue, that’s correct. But has he ever told you that he is not an ordinary person? In fact, he is the young master of the richest Zhan family.”
“You didn’t expect that, did you? He is actually the young master of the Zhan family, the richest family with thousands of billions in assets. The gap between a young master like him and people like us is enormous. He cannot possibly be sincere towards you.”
“He is just seeking a bit of novelty, toying with you. Rich people like them love playing with girls the most. They change women as easily as changing clothes. Relying on their money, when they want to change girlfriends, they simply pay off the old one with cash.”
“Xiaoya, you must not be deceived by his sweet words. He is just playing around.”
Zeng Xiaoya said, “I know he is from the Zhan family. Among his brothers, he ranks eighth overall and third among the full brothers. From the moment I met him, I knew he was the eighth young master of the Zhan family.”
“He has never lied to me. Besides, Zhan Yue and I are just friends. Whatever his background, I do not care. As long as we get along well when we talk, that is enough.”
“Let alone the fact that he is not pursuing me. Even if he were, I would believe in his sincerity. The good family values of the Zhan family are famous in Guancheng, aren’t they?”
Zeng Xiaoya believed the saying that the men of the Zhan family were very devoted.
After spending time with the old lady and others, she felt the rumours were true.
Dr Lin snorted coldly twice. “Xiaoya, don’t be naive. A man would not treat a woman so well without reason. There must be some ulterior motive. Moreover, Zhan Yue has personally admitted that he likes you and wants to compete fairly with me.”
“He did not say it casually. I could see his affection for you in his eyes. Every time he looks at you, his eyes sparkle.”
