Talking with her about these things wasn't to scare her, but because he remembered what she had said.
She once said she didn't like the feeling of being kept in the dark...
She also said she would rather know the whole truth and then try to come up with solutions, rather than being hidden from it.
So, even though he knew telling the truth might make her worry, this time, Lu Zhanbei really didn't plan on hiding anything from her. He even seriously put down his chopsticks and solemnly said to her, "Qianqian, I've cast my net for three years for this day, isn't it time to reel it in?"
Could she say she didn't understand?
Yes, she didn't understand, didn't understand the timing or plan he mentioned, but there was one thing she at least understood, so she had to ask clearly: "But if Lu Yebai marries Ling Weixue, what about the second daughter of Bai Family?"
At this point, she added, "She really seems to like Yebai, and Yebai seems to like her too."
