Chapter 437 is a bit abnormal

Xu Xinran said to them with a flattering look, "Then I'll try my best to learn. But before I do, I'll probably have to trouble Brother Shen and his wife a lot. Especially Brother Shen. We have a lot of intersections in work and life, so I'm sure I'll have to trouble him a lot."

Lin Xiaoxia said, "You should come to me more often for things in life. It's easier for women to talk to each other." This also made Xu Xinran understand that there should be an appropriate distance between men and women.

However, Xu Xinran didn't seem to understand Lin Xiaoxia's deeper meaning: "Sister-in-law, you're welcome. It's very convenient for me to talk to Brother Shen about anything at work. Besides, Brother Shen and I are like real siblings. Brother Shen even picked me up from school before. We have a deep relationship."

Lu Jingshen said tactfully, "I went to pick you up from school before because Professor Xu had something to do at school and the weather was bad, so I had to pick you up for him. But you were still young then. Now you've grown up and you're a girl, so if you have some private matters, as your sister-in-law said, it's more convenient for you to go to her."

Lin Xiaoxia was very satisfied with Lu Jingshen's attitude. This man would not do anything unclear.

Hearing this, Xu Xinran looked at Lu Jingshen and said, "Brother Shen, I'm grown up and I'm no longer your sister. My sister-in-law won't be so stingy." After that, she asked jokingly, "Brother Shen, are you afraid of your wife or your sister-in-law?"

Although this was said in a joking tone, it still made people feel uncomfortable.

Lu Jingshen said, "Xiaoxia is very generous. We trust each other as husband and wife, so there's nothing to be afraid of. It's just that I don't like getting too close to girls, whether in the past or now. And I avoid suspicion with married men, which is also for your own good."

Xu Xinran's expression was a little complicated. "Brother Shen, you look serious. I was just joking. You're still as serious as before. Don't worry, I won't let sister-in-law misunderstand or anything. I'm not your type. Besides, if I really had any feelings for you, would I have waited until today? I'll just be a little sister who is spoiled by you. In the future, I'll trouble Brother Shen and sister-in-law to worry about me more."

Lin Xiaoxia was even more displeased with what she heard. She found that this girl looked carefree and indeed was not the type that Lu Jingshen liked. However, her words and actions did not seem that simple. The more she spoke, the more she seemed to be a bit of a red tea bitch.

She looked at Xu Xinran and said with a smile, "You want us to pamper you, but you've probably found the wrong person. My husband can only pamper me, and I also like being pampered. I'm not used to pampering others, so don't ask too much of us. We can't meet your expectations."

This made Xu Xinran feel a little embarrassed, but she quickly adjusted her expression and said, "Sister-in-law, you are really not polite at all. But I like your personality. Just say whatever you want to say. I was just joking. Sister-in-law, don't take my words too seriously. I have a carefree personality. I don't like those little girls' shy things. Sister-in-law, if you have any opinions about me in the future, please tell me directly."

Lin Xiaoxia became even more alert to Xu Xinran. This person was so capable of both advance and retreat. He was no ordinary person. She said, "I feel relieved with your words. I will definitely tell you directly if there is anything in the future."

Lu Jingshen could tell that there was something fishy about what Xu Xinran had just said. He looked at Xu Xinran with some confusion and asked, "You've changed so much in the past few years. You're completely different from what I remembered."

This was indeed a surprise to Lu Jingshen. Xu Xinran used to be a somewhat introverted good girl, but why did she seem to have a bit of a worldly air now?

When Xu Xinran heard Lu Jingshen ask this, her face became a little unnatural: "I, because the man I like doesn't like my previous personality, so I changed for him."

Lu Jingshen asked again: "After you changed, does he like you now?"

Xu Xinran smiled bitterly and shook her head: "No, maybe I still haven't become the type he likes. I was thinking wrongly before. Now I roughly know what he likes. I believe that I can make him like me."

Lin Xiaoxia always felt uncomfortable with Xu Xinran's words. She said to Xu Xinran, "Love is not about changing yourself to please others, but about mutual love and being together for a lifetime."

Xu Xinran said confidently, "Not necessarily. If they're not in love with each other, then one person has to make more sacrifices."

Lin Xiaoxia said: "Even if you get it, the relationship will be very fragile. Why do you insist on it? Maybe there is someone more suitable for you waiting for you."

Xu Xinran said, "I'm such a stubborn person. There's nothing I can do about it. My dad said that I won't turn back even if I hit my head against the wall. I won't give up until my head is broken and bloody."

Lu Jingshen asked Xu Xinran: "Does your father know about these things about you?"

Xu Xinran said: "Of course my father doesn't know. He was so angry about my change that he beat me several times."

Lu Jingshen sighed: "Professor Xu only has you as his daughter, and he has high hopes for you. Don't let him down too much."

Xu Xinran said: "I know, don't worry, Brother Shen, I know everything I have done. I will learn more from my sister-in-law in the future and be a girl that both you and my father will be satisfied with."

Lu Jingshen said, "I just hope Professor Xu won't be sad."

Lin Xiaoxia said: “We are not your elders, so it is difficult for us to say much, but Professor Xu has done a favor for Jing Shen, and we still hope that you can develop well.”

After all, she was the tutor's child, and he had taken care of Lu Jingshen, so she had to repay the favor.

Xu Xinran said, "I will. I will develop well. I have to let the person I like see my excellence, otherwise my efforts will be in vain. So I have to study hard with Brother Shen in the future."

Lu Jingshen said, "I will guide you more in your work. I hope you will be Professor Xu's pride in the future."

Xu Xinran said, "Of course I will. Anyway, I'm sorry to bother you this time."

After exchanging some pleasantries, Xu Xinran also asked them about some shopping and dining places in Lingyuan City.

Lin Xiaoxia always felt something was not right about Xu Xinran. Her words always seemed to carry some hidden meaning, but she didn't quite understand it yet. She decided to wait and see. Anyway, she was on guard in her heart, and she trusted her husband very much. If anything happened, the couple could just face it together.

After dinner, they returned to the compound gate together. Lu Jingshen and Xu Xinran went to work, while Lin Xiaoxia bought some daily necessities at a nearby daily necessities store. She went home and found a new summer quilt because the dormitory had a matching sponge mattress for the bed, so there was no need to bring a mattress. They packed everything and waited for the dormitory to be cleaned up and delivered.

In the afternoon, Lin Xiaoxia received a call from Xu Xinran's father, Professor Xu.
