Made His Intentions Clear

Yun Jin became even angrier when she saw Zheng Han staring at her without saying a word.

She pushed him back and ran to the cafeteria.

When they reached the cafeteria, Yun Jin was in no mood to order. She found a table to sit at and remained silent.

The students in the third year of high school were having their monthly exams. The students in the first and second year of high school were still in class so she was the only student in the cafeteria.

What did Zheng Han mean by "picking"?

Yun Jin rubbed her forehead and kept recalling every word that Old Master Zheng had said to her, looking for clues.

After learning of her identity and background, Old Master Zheng had been persuading her to stay in the capital. The reason he gave was very reasonable, and he even helped her send the letter back to her grandfather.

He had been very good to her these days..

She had thought that Old Master Zheng had been taking care of her because she and her grandfather were on good terms. Now, it seemed that it wasn't just that?

'Damn it, I still can't figure out what is wrong with Zheng Han's words!'

Yun Jin's heart was full of depression. Just as she was about to stand up to eat, she heard the rapid footsteps of someone running into the cafeteria.

It was Zheng Han.

He was pleasantly surprised when he saw Yun Jin. He quickly sat down at the same table and preemptively said, "I was about to say something, but you ran away!"

"I didn't expect you to run so fast... with your speed, you'll definitely get first place in the 100m race."

As he said this, Zheng Han touched his chin with a look of certainty, as if he was imagining Yun Jin's appearance in the 100m race.

Yun Jin was fed up with his nonsense. She lowered her voice and said, "Stop talking nonsense. Tell me clearly what you meant when you talked about the selection."

Although there were no students in the cafeteria, there were cooks in charge of cooking.

The table they were sitting at was close to the window. Yun Jin vaguely felt that "selection" was not a good word. The meaning it represented was not what she wanted, so she did not ask loudly.

Zheng Han also reacted and surrendered in a low voice. "Alright, I'll say it. Don't run anymore. If you run again, I won't be able to catch up."

"It's like this... Grandpa said that he and your grandfather had agreed to let you be engaged to our family when you were still a child. The jade pendant is a momento."

Yun Jin's pupils were constricted. She was at a loss for words about this matter which was completely out of her expectations.

Zheng Han did not notice her emotions and continued, "But we didn't specify which boy it was, so Grandpa told us to perform well during this period of time. Then, you can decide which one of us to get engaged to."

"When you went to talk to Lin Yuan in the ward, Grandpa told us about it."

"I didn't expect that Grandpa wouldn't tell you. I guess he's planning to tell you about it during your birthday..."

"I see. No wonder you guys were hostile to me at that time..."

Yun Jin was speechless at that moment. She really wanted to ask if she could just not choose any of them.

She was only here to deliver something. How did it end up like this? How did that jade pendant become a marriage token?!

No one told her about it, whether it was her grandfather or Grandpa Zheng. They let her interact with three people who didn't like her, and she had to choose one of them to marry in the future!

Thinking of this, Yun Jin looked at Zheng Han and said solemnly, "Don't worry, I won't choose anyone."

"Don't worry about getting engaged to me... your two brothers don't have to worry either."

"I don't have the intention to date or marry. I only want to stay. I just want to go to university, promote Chinese medicine, and save more people."

Zheng Han thought that he would be happy after hearing this. In the end, he only found that his heart was filled with bitterness, and a very uncomfortable feeling lingered in his heart.

"I see. Alright... I understand."

Zheng Han suppressed his sobs, and his eyes reddened as he forced himself to remain calm.

"When the time comes, I will also tell Grandpa not to let you choose me. That way, grandfather will realize that an arranged marriage will not bring happiness to people. Nowadays, everyone pursues the freedom to love."

"As you wish. This is even better."

Yun Jin nodded and revealed a smile. Seeing that there were new dishes served at the canteen, one of which was to her liking, she stood up and ordered the dishes.

Looking at her dashing back, Zheng Han realized two things very clearly --

... Yun Jin did not like him.

... but he liked her.

Boom! These two things were like a bolt from the blue, crashing fiercely into Zheng Han's mind.

After ordering the dishes, Yun Jin came back. Before she sat down, she saw Zheng Han, who was sitting stiffly, dumbstruck, and not saying a word. He looked like a fool.

She thought for a moment, then turned around and went to another table.

The engagement was too awkward..

The two of them had good personalities, so they should still be friends. However, they had to wait until the engagement was completely annulled.

Otherwise, they would not be able to get along naturally. Grandpa Zheng and the others would misunderstand, and they would not be able to be friends normally.

When Zheng Han saw Yun Jin's actions, he felt even more uncomfortable. He even complained a little about why he had said this out loud?

If Yun Jin found out about this for the first time on her birthday, she would not be prepared..

'Since Yun Jin and I share the best relationship, will she choose me?

... probably.'

In this way, the two of them would be engaged, and he would marry the girl he liked.

Zheng Han looked down and stopped fantasizing.

He was not a fragile person. It did not matter if the engagement was annulled. It was a rebellion against his grandfather's tyranny.

He would make Yun Jin fall in love with him in a fair and aboveboard way, so they could get married because they really had feelings for each other!
