Love Comes After Marriage novel Chapter 873

"I feel like you have the wrong impression of me. I'm not the kind of woman that enjoys ambiguity," Lin Qian cut in.

Li Jin calmed down. As he drove, he peered out the car window. After Lin Qian regained her composure, Li Jin finally said, "I haven't had much time to pursue women."

Hearing this, Lin Qian was a little surprised as a look of helplessness appeared between her furrowed brows, "You are a hero in most people's eyes. But, all women are petty. It's not easy to be forgiving."

"I will try my best to find time to understand you."

Li Jin's words were obviously cold, but for some reason, Lin Qian actually felt a sense of warmth.

"I'm the type of person that accepts reason, not force. Don't do things that I hate," Lin Qian warned.

"So, are you saying that you don't hate me at the moment?"

Lin Qian lowered her head without a word. She was going to go with the flow. After all, Li Jin was busy and probably wouldn't have time to appear in front of her anyway, so this wasn't such a bad thing.

"My heart is hard to get through. If you are in a rush to get married or if you expect me to be all over you like other women, I won't be able to do that."

Lin Qian did not look at Li Jin and Li Jin did not reply. The car remained silent until the two of them pulled up at the restaurant, "You are indeed what I expected. I hate women that are annoying, and you are not annoying at all!"

This man was so straightforward. He even treated the relationship between a man and a woman like it was some kind of national mission. Was he really that patriotic?

"So, give me an answer. Do you want to continue moving forward?"

Lin Qian did not give an immediate response as she opened the car door, stepped out and walked ahead. The two entered the restaurant one after the other. Only after sitting down did she finally reply, "Give me some time. After all, we only met a few days ago."

"OK. But don't take too long."

Lin Qian didn't like men like Quan Ziye, who gave off an evil vibe and were filled with instability, but...she probably didn't like someone like Li Jin either, who wasn't flexible with his decisions and was strict with everything he did, right?

He was too cold and domineering.

The two ended up having a very quiet meal. Lin Qian was originally a little awkward around Li Jin, but Li Jin said to her in an extremely natural manner, "Just be yourself. Nothing is taboo around me."

With these words, Lin Qian immediately relaxed.

But, a moment later, she received a phone call from Xing Lan, "Lin Qian, hurry home. There's a lawyer here for you..."

"Lawyer?" Lin Qian furrowed her brows. "I don't know any lawyers."

"It appears to be related to the Quan Family."

Lin Qian was a little surprised, but she ended up nodding her head, "I'll be back very soon."

"Let's go, I'll take you home," Li Jin heard what Lin Qian said and immediately stood up.

It didn't take long before Li Jin delivered Lin Qian back to Xing Lan's home. Originally, he wanted to say he'd see her later, but Lin Qian rushed into the apartment without looking back before he could even say a word.

This girl was quite cool.

...

"Miss Lin, how are you? I am Mrs. Quan's lawyer, Yang Bi."

Lin Qian stepped into the living room and politely shook the lawyers hands, "Speak, what does Mrs. Quan want?"

"These are your expenses over the years that you spent in the Quan Family. Mrs. Quan wants you to pay it all back. After all, you are in the entertainment industry now and this amount isn't much to you..."

"Interesting," Xing Lan was disgusted by what she heard. "This is the first time I've heard of adoptive parents forcing their children to pay them back."
