"You... you..." Elder Mr. Zhou's lips quivered as he looked at his grandson.
His fine grandson, who had smoothly progressed from primary scholar to advanced scholar, had always been so good, but how had he ended up like this? From what point did he start to change?
He took a deep breath and then he remembered.
It started after he went to the Lin family to call off the marriage engagement. Since then, his grandson had become a completely different person, failing at whatever he tried.
He made up his mind that he would, after calling off the engagement with the Prefect's family, find a way to make Lin Laogeng marry Lin Caisang off to their Zhou family, to become a Zhou daughter-in-law!
Even if it meant using force or theft, he was prepared to go to any lengths.
The key was that as long as it benefitted the future of the Zhou family, he was willing to pay any price.
...
Two days later, at the Lin family.
