Chapter 7: My girlfriend is really attractive to me

“Maybe this is the power of love.”

"However, based on my understanding of Xu Zhijian, it's pretty good that you managed to get her after pursuing her ten times. This guy never seems to be interested in dating."

Suddenly, Shen Wan choked.

She seemed to understand, perhaps, why Wen Nian had said that he was not serious and responsible in relationships.

Xu Zhijian may not know how to love at all.

It seems that the only thing he cares about is how to have more fun.

So how did they talk about it in the first place?

Confused, she tentatively asked, "How did you succeed the tenth time?"

The tenth time.

It was the time when Xu Zhijian fell in love with her.

Wen Nian might never forget this moment: "I wanted to formally confess my feelings to him one last time and even bought a bouquet of flowers, but I happened to run into him fighting on the side of the road. Worried for a moment, I stepped in to help him."

I still remember that the sky was very dark and the clouds were thick that day, which was a sign of heavy rain.

Thunder rumbled overhead.

On the roadside, blue baby's breath was scattered all over the ground, and branches of flowers were crushed in the mud.

Suddenly, a clean and slender hand picked up the only intact flower, held it in front of the eyes, and observed it casually.

Under the sycamore tree, Wen Nian was in a dishevel. His once carefully styled hair and clothes were now in disarray, and his arms were pinched with several scars, causing a slight pain.

All was quiet.

She stared blankly at Xu Zhijian, who was even more miserable than her but didn't care at all, and whispered, "Well, this is the last time I'm going to harass you. A forced melon won't be sweet. I still know myself."

Without replying, she pinched the hem of her clothes.

Continued:

"I wish you a bright future, and hope you can find a girlfriend and live a happy life."

Still dead silent.

No matter how much courage you have, it will eventually run out.

She didn't intend to continue talking, so she turned around, suppressed her sadness, and prepared to leave.

Suddenly, a light laugh came from behind.

Wen Nian was stunned and turned back slowly.

Seeing a pair of smiling eyes as bright as stars, which were out of tune with the sky that day, they were deeply engraved in her heart.

The boy said in a clear voice: "It's a pity to have these flowers. I will give you a more beautiful bouquet some other day."

His eyes are beautiful, like the starry sky.

So, she gave him a baby's breath, and at that moment she realized that even the stars in the sky could not compare to it.

Shen Wan nodded: "So that's how it is..."

She had a guess in her mind, and she pondered it for a long time. A wave of sadness passed through her, but she chose not to say it.

Xu Zhijian was careless and most likely thought that Wen Nian was a good friend who saved him.

As for his philandering, she mentioned it: "Xu Zhijian said that you misunderstood him, he——"

"It doesn't matter. The conflicts between him and me were never caused by one or two misunderstandings."

Shen Wan choked.

Wen Nian admitted that she was a superficial person.

At that time, she prided herself on being pretty, having good grades, and having a bright future, and she thought it should be no problem for her to be a match for Xu Zhijian.

Later, she realized that some people are born to be at the top. No matter how outstanding she was, even if she spent her whole life, she would never be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with someone as gifted as him.

She liked the aura on him, but she didn't expect that this aura would eventually turn into a sharp blade and stab her.

Facts have proved that if you can't squeeze into a circle, don't try to force it.

God will always punish the greedy.

She should have realized this earlier. If it weren't for that self-comforting mentality of taking chances, she might not have ended up like that.

Fortunately, the sea breeze that came later healed all her scars and blew away all her love.

"Okay." Shen Wan shook his wine glass: "A person like Xu Zhijian who is born willful and arrogant will probably never learn how to love someone in his lifetime. It's a good thing to stay away from him as soon as possible."

If she thought about it carefully, the misunderstandings Xu Zhijian told her were either subjective conjectures or trivial matters from the past, and they really didn't have much value.

Perhaps, even he himself does not know where he is wrong.

"However, he probably won't give up easily. When it comes to pestering people, this guy is first-rate. What are you going to do?"

After Wen Nian finished speaking, he felt exhausted. He fell onto the bed and said lazily, "I don't know. Whatever. I don't care."

"I'm just drunk. Don't fall asleep! Let's keep chatting."

—

"Why are you going to someone else's company? Huh?"

Inside the villa, Xu Quan, dressed in a suit and tie, had a ferocious expression on his face, pointing at Xu Zhijian across from him and roaring, "Is there some plague god in our family? We just can't tolerate you!"

He really didn't want to admit that this man was his son.

He had never been able to rest easy since he was a child. He had to follow that group of playboys to do some bad things every other day. He finally sent him to college in another city, but he didn't expect that four years would pass in the blink of an eye.

Just come back, I think I have made some progress.

The position had been arranged for him, but when he woke up, hey, hey, he'd gone to the next room.

Over here, Xu Zhijian was lying on the sofa with his legs crossed, holding his forehead and complaining about the noise: "That's not the case."

"No? Then what is it? Is there something more attractive about other companies? I think you are just trying to make things difficult for me!"

The Xu family is not a family of noble origin, but rather started from scratch.

Xu Quan spent decades of hard work to build such a place in the business circle.

Born into a poor family, he didn't have much knowledge, and even after so many years, he still hadn't changed his vulgar way of speaking.

As if it was no big deal, Xu Zhijian's eyes lit up and he smiled in a cheap way: "You guessed it, it's true, my girlfriend is indeed quite attractive to me."

"?" Xu Quan widened his eyes.

After searching for a while but not finding the right weapon, she glared at him: "Xu Zhijian, I'm telling you! If you want to be ruined, you can choose to jump into the river instead of dragging us down with you."

"What did you say?"

As the soft voice sounded, a woman in a green new Chinese cheongsam came over with a teapot.

The steps are steady and the posture is elegant.

There is a natural fragrance of books from top to bottom.

Unlike Xu Zhijian's father, his mother was a real lady from a noble family, well-educated, and gentle in nature.

In fact, Xu Zhijian never understood why her mother fell in love with his father in the first place.

Apart from looking decent and having a little money, he has no other advantages.

How blind.

Arriving at the table, Qing Shuyi put down the teapot, glanced between the two of them, and handed the porcelain cup to Xu Zhijian: "What's going on?"

Xu Quan's hands were shaking with anger, and he spoke first: "He's dating a celebrity! Celebrities, what kind of people are they? With his bad temper, who knows what kind of trouble he'll get into in the future."

"Once public opinion ferments, the company's reputation will be affected more than just a little!"

"Isn't that messy enough? Why did I give birth to a loser like you?"

"Hiss." Xu Zhijian put down his teacup. "Who told you I was dating a celebrity?"

"What's the matter? In your eyes, except for the celebrities, everyone else in Uncle Shen's company is not a human being? Oh, I see. I understand."

Xu Quan almost touched the teapot: "If you say another word of nonsense, I will beat you to death!"

Xu Zhijian didn't take it seriously and said lazily, "He's my college classmate."

Qing Shuyi glanced at him in surprise: "Is it the one called Wen Nian?"

He was stunned: "Yes, how did you know?"

Qing Shuyi and Xu Quan are busy outside all day and rarely pay attention to Xu Zhijian's life. It has become commonplace for them to be dressed formally and about to go out.

He was somewhat surprised that she knew this.

"Your sister told me, but I heard you broke up?"

Xu Xiaoyu...that makes sense.

"We had a little conflict." Xu Zhijian stood up and said as he walked towards the stairs without further explanation, "I'll go back after I get her back."

Suddenly he turned around and smiled at Xu Quan: "Oh yes, my girlfriend is a famous general. I will dig her up and use her as your slave."

"What Wen Nian?" Xu Quan couldn't stand his carefree attitude the most: "You're still being treated like an ox or a horse, it's good enough if you're not the ancestor!"

"How can someone who's in a relationship with him be an honest person? He's always causing me trouble."

"He's not nearsighted, wearing those lousy glasses!"

"Okay, calm down." Qing Shuyi gently stroked his back, a warm smile on his face, and joked, "It's all inherited from you."

His wife is like the best placebo in the world. A smile from her can always calm him down. No matter how angry he is, he can't bear to get angry in front of her.

Xu Quan pursed his lips, his tone tinged with complaint: "What do you mean by inherited? I'm much more honest than him."

At the end of the corridor, Xu Xiaoyu retracted his head.

With a serious face, he sent a voice message to his phone: "Family, I have discovered a great moral corruption. Wait, I will transform into a beam of light and completely crush this darkness."

At night, Xu Zhijian came out of the bathroom and vaguely saw a light on in his room.

He narrowed his eyes and paused in wiping his hair.

What the hell?

In the darkness, Xu Xiaoyu was squatting beside the bed, her entire face illuminated by the cell phone, her nervousness yet also a sense of pride and righteousness.

“Snap—”

The moment the bedroom light was turned on, a deafening roar sounded: "Ah!"

Xu Xiaoyu quickly threw the phone away, holding her little darling and turned back: "Brother..."

"What are you doing?"

Her eyes wandered, feeling extremely guilty: "I... what?"

Xu Zhijian leaned against the door and scoffed, "Nonsense, who else is in this room besides you? Tell me, why are you touching my phone?"

Xu Xiaoyu's mind raced: "I just want to see...what's in my brother's shopping cart."

She walked over to him with small steps, pinched the hem of his clothes and said flatteringly: "You just graduated, and I haven't prepared a gift yet, so I thought of helping you empty your shopping cart, hehe."

"Really?"

Xu Xiaoyu nodded.

"Do I need you? Go play somewhere else." Xu Zhijian grabbed her by the back of her collar and threw her out the door.

Xu Xiaoyu immediately stood at attention and saluted: "Okay!"

Then he disappeared like a flash.

Xu Zhijian was suspicious and picked up the phone on the bed. He flipped through it for a while but found nothing unusual.

but……

I still don't believe she can do anything good.

While he was completely unaware, Wen Nian received several messages from "Xu Zhijian":

[Sister Wen, run! My brother wants revenge on you!]

[Don't be fooled by his sweet words. I heard him say it myself: he's going to fuck you the next time he sees you!]

[You must remember my words! Xu Zhijian is not a good person!!!]

Wen Nian blinked, and a round face flashed in his mind.

Xu Xiaoyu?

"Hello! The dishes are all here. Is there anything else you two could use?"

"No more, thank you." Duan Shuangyue hummed a song while putting the meat into the pot. She looked up and saw Wen Nian's puzzled expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

Wen Nian pursed her lips and held the phone in front of her:

"Your student."

After seeing the words clearly, Duan Shuangyue shook her head and said, "I really didn't expect that Xu Xiaoyu is actually the younger sister of that idiot Xu Zhijian. This is too much of a coincidence. It's really scary when you think about it."

"I should have known I shouldn't have let you go. It's all my fault! He really knows how to pick the right time!"

Wen Nian took back the phone and laughed: "Okay, I don't blame anyone."

"Woo woo woo, Nian Nian, you're so nice." As she spoke, she suddenly rolled up her sleeves and said, "I'll go to the company with you tomorrow and see what this damn scumbag looks like!"

"I promise to make his blush symmetrical."

Wen Nian choked: "Don't."

"Slow down." Duan Shuangyue handed over a tissue: "Why, you're not still feeling sorry for him, are you?"

Feeling sorry for him? How could that be possible?

She wanted to slap him twice with her own hands.

"No, I just don't want to have anything to do with him anymore."

After all, the best way to end a relationship is to stop contacting it.

Moreover, what Xu Zhijian fears most is cold violence.

Compared to hysterical revenge, calm distance would make him more upset.

Wen Nian held the water cup, quietly watching the ripples in the cup, and her usually gentle eyes were tinged with a layer of frost.

Oh, kill her?

Okay, she wanted to see how long he could hold on.
