Hearing Lin Fang’s question, Zhuang’s father nodded with a grim expression.
Today, the Zhuang family brought back so many things from the Shao family. Anyone with a discerning eye could understand what had happened.
By then, the news that the Zhuang family’s daughter was infertile would spread throughout Shangcheng, and the Zhuang family would become the gossip of everyone behind their backs.
Thinking of this, Zhuang’s father felt suffocated.
How could his Jing’er be unable to have children for no reason?
At this moment, Lin Fang suddenly said, “Mr. Zhuang, what do you think of me?”
After saying that, Lin Fang straightened his posture and looked at Zhuang Lin seriously.
Upon hearing this, Zhuang’s father looked at him with some surprise, but he still said objectively, “My dear nephew is a deputy director at such a young age, has a wide circle of friends, is generous and upright, and has a very promising future!”
Although many people mocked Lin Fang as a fool, saying that anyone could take advantage of him.
However, Zhuang’s father was a businessman, so he valued connections highly. What others saw as Lin Fang’s shortcomings, which others might consider foolish, were precisely his valuable qualities in his eyes.
After hearing Zhuang’s father’s words, Lin Fang coughed lightly and said seriously, “Then how about I become your son-in-law?”
Lin Fang earnestly promoted himself.
Hearing Lin Fang’s words, Zhuang’s father’s eyes widened in surprise. He looked at Lin Fang with surprise and said, “Nephew Lin, you’re joking, aren’t you?”
Businessmen value profit, which is why he was determined to marry his daughter into the scholarly Shao family.
But he hadn’t expected that the Shao family, who had been so friendly before the marriage, would turn their backs on Jing’er as soon as her health deteriorated!
Even businessmen like them believe in maintaining good relations even if a deal falls through!
But the Shao family was different. Not only did they want a divorce, but they even dared to humiliate their daughter by calling her a barren hen!
Wasn’t this just trampling his family’s face in the mud?!
But he never expected that Lin Fang would propose to him right after Jing’er’s divorce.
Thinking of Lin Fang’s lack of parents and Zhuang Jing’s inability to have children, Zhuang’s father suddenly sighed and shook his head at Lin Fang.
Seeing this, Lin Fang’s heart sank.
Could it be that Zhuang’s father was dissatisfied with him or also disdained him for being a rough man?
At this moment, Zhuang’s father suddenly said, “Nephew Lin, I know you’re a good person, but it’s precisely because of this that I can’t cheat you.”
Hearing this, Lin Fang immediately asked, “What do you mean, Mr. Zhuang?”
At this moment, Zhuang’s father sighed again with a worried look on his face and then said, “It’s embarrassing to say this. My daughter Jing’er is wonderful in every way, but she is infertile. If I marry her to you, your Lin family line will end!”
The fact that the other party was willing to propose to Jing’er after her divorce, without minding that she was a second-time bride, already proved Lin Fang’s sincerity and kindness. But the more he acted like this, the more he couldn’t cheat him!
Upon hearing Zhuang’s father’s words, Lin Fang felt a sense of relief and said, “I wondered what the reason was. If it’s because of this matter, Mr. Zhuang need not worry.”
Hearing this, Zhuang’s father looked at him with some confusion.
At this moment, Lin Fang smiled innocently and said, “I told you, Mr. Zhuang, please don’t laugh at me.”
Zhuang’s father was even more puzzled, but he nodded and waited for him to continue.
“Actually, I’ve had my eye on Miss Zhuang for a long time, but the Zhuang and Shao families already had a marriage agreement, so I had to give up. Besides, I’m an orphan, so after Miss Zhuang got married, I gave up on the idea of starting a family and focused all my energy on my career. You might not believe it, but I don’t care about having children at all. So when the news of Miss Zhuang’s divorce came out, I immediately proposed marriage to you, didn’t I? Otherwise, what if I was a step too late again?”
After saying that, Lin Fang even showed a look of relief.
