Dr. Wang smiled as he looked at Wen Xi, but there was a hint of scrutiny in his eyes. Wen Xi understood what he meant; he just felt that she was not good enough for He Chen'an.
Two years from now, it remains to be seen who is not good enough for whom.
"Chen'an, I didn't expect you actually have a girlfriend. I thought you were just making up an excuse to fob me off! Your aunt said she wanted to introduce you to her niece, and I almost agreed. Luckily I didn't, or I would have broken up their relationship," Dr. Wang said with a smile.
Wen Xi only understood after hearing this. It turned out that He Chen'an had brought her to see his 'master' in such a hurry to assert his dominance and make their relationship public!
"Uncle Wang, my relationship with my girlfriend is very good. She is educated, good-looking, and comes from a good family. She is excellent in every way. Even if Aunt Wang arranges for me to meet someone else, I won't break us up because my heart will not waver." The implication was that even if Aunt Wang brought her niece to him, he wouldn't be interested.
Of course, he revealed Wenxi's good conditions in order to discourage them. No matter how good Wang's niece's conditions were, how could they be better than Wenxi's?
He Chen'an is a truly outstanding junior. Everyone wants to bring him into their family, as he would be a great help to the family.
Dr. Wang doesn't have a daughter, but after listening to his wife, he did consider bringing He Chen'an into his family. However, after seeing Wen Xi today, he no longer had that thought.
Just as He Chen'an said, Wen Xi has a good education, looks, and family background. In addition, she is gentle, refined, and well-mannered. You can tell that she is not someone that can be raised in an ordinary family. She is really not comparable to his wife's niece.
His wife's niece couldn't concentrate on her studies and didn't even finish junior high. She had dark skin and was not particularly good-looking. He had originally thought that He Chen'an would be willing to marry her because of him, since people at that time valued women with big hips for sons. Now it seemed that he was glad he hadn't humiliated himself.
With such an outstanding partner, how could He Chen'an possibly be interested in anyone else?
He's not blind!
Dr. Wang regained his composure and said with a smile, "Chen An, I didn't expect you to be so lucky, finding such a beautiful and outstanding partner on your own."
Then he said to Wen Xi, "Comrade Wen is very outstanding and a perfect match for Chen An. I wish you happiness."
"Thank you, Uncle Wang," He Chen'an and Wen Xi said almost in unison.
Afterwards, He Chen'an ordered a pot of tea and two pastries. At this time, the teahouse was not a private teahouse, but a state-run teahouse, just like a state-run restaurant, and tickets were required.
However, the service is better than that of state-run restaurants. After all, ordinary people don't have the money or leisure to drink tea. It's usually elderly people or cadres from well-off families who are afraid of offending someone and losing their jobs.
After chatting for a while, Dr. Wang was very satisfied with Wenxi. If it were his own son, he would definitely be willing to let his son marry Wenxi.
A virtuous wife brings fewer troubles to her husband; marrying an excellent wife can have an impact on several generations.
After having tea, it was almost time, so the three of them moved on to a state-run restaurant. He Chen'an carried a basket and walked behind Wen Xi. Wen Xi asked in a low voice, "How's the house hunting going? Any progress?"
He Chen'an looked intently at Wen Xi, "Xiao Xi, are you in such a hurry to marry me?"
Wen Xi's cheeks flushed with embarrassment, and shyness crept into her beautiful eyes. "I just wanted to know the layout of the house so I could plan things out, you know. I'm not in a rush to marry you!"
Even if you're anxious, you can't compromise anymore. Next year is next year. Compromising again and again and abandoning your principles will only make you look down on.
He Chen'an said seriously, "I've already asked around for houses, but there's been no progress yet. You're from the city, so you know how tight housing is there. But there's still time, so we don't need to worry too much. We'll definitely find a house."
Wen Xi nodded. "Focus your energy on your work and don't worry about too much."
After arriving at the state-run restaurant and having lunch, Dr. Wang left with the mountain produce that Wenxi had prepared for him, leaving only Wenxi and He Chen'an. It was almost late July, and the midday heat was too intense, so the two of them didn't stroll around anymore. He Chen'an escorted Wenxi to the roadside to catch a ride.
"The double harvest season is about to begin, and I won't have time to come see you then. If you're physically able, save your vacation days and take a couple more days off when I'm free." Wen Xi didn't want him to use up his vacation days before they could see each other, otherwise he wouldn't be available when she was.
“Okay.” He Chen’an had no reason to refuse Wen Xi’s request.
Besides, his vacation was meant to be spent seeing her anyway. If he couldn't see her, he might as well earn more money so they could go on a shopping spree.
When they arrived at the waiting area, Wen Xi noticed that He Chen'an was staring at her intently. Feeling a little embarrassed, she asked, "What's wrong?"
He Chen'an then came to his senses and said with a smile, "That's because you look so beautiful today that I was stunned. I was holding back because Uncle Wang was there!"
Today, Wenxi wore a green dress, the same color as the rice and wheat seedlings, which looked vibrant. The dress was also simple in style, without too many complicated embellishments, making it look even more simple and elegant. It also made Wenxi's already good complexion look crystal clear, like a green fruit hanging on a branch.
Even though it has a slightly sour taste, it makes you want to take a bite.
Wenxi gave him a playful glare. That's ridiculous!
He Chen'an touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed. After the car arrived and Wen Xi got in, He Chen'an waved to her.
When they arrived in town, Wenxi got out of the car. It was the hottest time of day, and Wenxi didn't want to go back. But she had no choice but to wear a straw hat and a sun-protective jacket. Fortunately, the jacket had been in the freezer in the system's kitchen for a while, so it was cool and refreshing on her body and not so hot.
Every now and then, when the sun-protective clothing stopped feeling cool, she would walk to the tree and put it in the freezer for a while, since she had only signed off on one piece of sun-protective clothing.
After a long and arduous journey home, Wen Xi immediately slipped into the system's kitchen to cool off. She stayed inside for an hour, but not much time had passed outside.
After taking a shower and changing her clothes, Wenxi cleaned herself up and then went to Lin Yiwan's house with her mushroom-picking equipment to ask Lin Yiwan to go mushroom picking together.
