Chen Xiaoyin managed to avoid this calamity.
She was very grateful for her grandfather's ability to assess the situation clearly.
Of course, she was even more grateful to her mentor.
While studying, Chun Nuan would also chat about daily life with a few girls, and Chen Xiaoyin would tell her mentor about the troubles at home.
"The person you should be most grateful to is yourself, because only you had the courage and the foundation to make demands of your grandfather. Moreover, it was because you had the ability that your grandfather saw a value in you far beyond marrying into the Tang family, which is why he chose the option most beneficial to the Chen family."
Although saying this might sound a bit disingenuous, it seems like it questions Doctor Chen's genuine protection and love for his granddaughter.
But the truth is, reality is always harsh.
Without having any value to offer, who would care about your feelings, and who would help you get what you want?
