Hearing her shout like that, and seeing her nonchalant smile, Yan Bo finally felt completely relieved.
Even though his shoulder was a little numb from her punch, he didn't care at all.
"Hey, is your girlfriend pretty?" Tao Jia looked at him with a gossipy and inquisitive expression.
Yan Bo smiled slightly and started joking in a very good mood.
"Not pretty at all, it's hideous."
Tao Jia clicked her tongue again, "I'm not a lesbian. Even if your girlfriend is prettier, I won't steal her from you. What's the point of telling such lies?"
Yan Bo laughed heartily, "When are you coming to L City? I'll introduce you two. To be honest, I don't think anyone is prettier than her!"
Tao Jia was caught off guard and forced to eat a mouthful of dog food. She covered her chest for a while before glaring at him fiercely.
"Yanbo, can you leave a way out for this single dog? Not only will you not be my free driver, but you're also indirectly calling me ugly. Aren't you afraid I'll sell information to your girlfriend?"
Yan Bo glanced at her. "I'm not afraid! How could a perfect man like me possibly betray me? Besides, my girlfriend trusts me. Who are you? Just an outsider!"
Yan Boren appears to be quite gentle, but in reality, he is quite narcissistic.
However, he certainly has the right to be narcissistic.
Tao Jia has never won against Yan Bo in verbal sparring since she was a child.
No, it should be said that she never had anything that could beat Yan Bo.
"Tsk, you're so narcissistic, does your girlfriend know?"
"I call this confidence, and she appreciates it very much!" Yan Bo praised himself without blushing at all.
Tao Jia glanced at him sideways, shook her head, and indicated that she had nothing to say.
The two hadn't seen each other for several months. They first talked about Tong Xiaohuai, and then gradually the conversation turned to gossip about the young masters and ladies in the capital.
"Hey, I overheard my parents talking once, and it seemed like your dad wanted to bring your older brother and the Yang family's daughter together. Is that true?"
Tao Jia is twenty years old, but in her heart, there is probably nothing but gossip.
In contrast, Tong Xiaohuai's heart is as vast as the sea.
"I'm not in the capital, so I don't know the specifics. Besides overhearing this, have you heard anything else?"
Yan Bo knew that his older brother had a good relationship with his assistant, and there was absolutely no truth to the rumors about his brother and the Yang family's daughter.
"No, your older brother is just like you. He's only in the capital a few days a month. Even if he really has something going on with the Yang family's daughter, we probably wouldn't be able to see it."
These scions of prominent families are actually used to being arranged marriages by their parents as soon as they come of age. They say it's to find a suitable partner for their children, but in reality, many of these marriages are based on the interests of both families.
Even someone as easygoing as Tao Jia, whose mind had long been subtly influenced by her parents, didn't have much objection to such arrangements.
Yanbo was very fortunate that she didn't have any designs on him; otherwise, judging from the current behavior of both families, she would have had a very difficult time getting rid of this trouble.
"Only my older brother and the Yang family's daughter have the right to decide this kind of thing. For example, if our parents insisted on bringing us together, would you be willing?"
Yan Bo was 100% certain that his parents and Commander Tao and his wife had reached a private agreement, so he made it clear so that she could give up on him as soon as possible.
Tao Jia was stunned for a moment. Clearly, she had never thought that there was such a possibility between her and Yan Bo.
She tilted her head and scrutinized Yan Bo for a long time, until Yan Bo's palms were sweating and his hands were slightly slipping on the steering wheel.
Just as Yan Bo was feeling uneasy and wanted to use a strong drug to provoke Tao Jia, he finally heard Tao Jia reply to him.
"To be honest, if I didn't have a man I liked, and I knew I had to marry a man from a similar family background, you would definitely be my first choice!"
As Tao Jia spoke, she playfully winked at him.
Yan Bo felt a chill run down his spine and gave her a resentful look. "Miss Tao Jiajia, thank you very much!"
Yan Bo's embarrassed expression made Tao Jia giggle.
"However, now that you have a girlfriend, of course I won't interfere! Don't worry, if my parents or your parents say anything to me, I'll stand up for you. You and your girlfriend can enjoy your wonderful relationship!"
Yan Bo glanced at her again and let out a long sigh.
"Jiajia, thank you!"
Tao Jia smiled at him, and then a glint flashed in her eyes.
"Oh dear, could it be that your coming to pick me up was actually a scheme orchestrated by my parents and your parents?"
Yan Bo pursed his lips and glanced at her sideways. "Otherwise what? You really think your driver went up the green belt with you?"
Tao Jia, after being teased, angrily pinched Yan Bo's arm again and glared at him threateningly.
"Yanbo, if you keep making fun of me about driving, I'll give in to my parents and see how you'll have your fun with your girlfriend then!"
Yan Bo smiled and flattered her, "Someone as virtuous as Miss Tao Jiajia would never be a mistress, right?"
Tao Jia was speechless and could only stare at him blankly.
The two laughed and joked, and the conversation never faltered. When they arrived at the sanatorium and parked the car, they continued chatting and laughing as they walked into the banquet hall.
In the center of the venue, Yan Zhong and his mother were greeting the guests when they heard a commotion at the entrance. The hosts and the guests surrounding them all turned their heads to look at the source of the noise.
Then, the youngest son of the host, also known as Young Master Yan, walked in with a tall, beautiful woman in a red evening dress.
"Hey, Elder Yan, isn't that your third young master?"
In recent years, Yan Bo has rarely appeared at such gatherings in Beijing due to his studies abroad and his business in L City. If it weren't for his mother's birthday banquet today, he wouldn't have been here either.
"Yes, it is my son." Yan Zhong felt very comforted as he watched the two young people chatting and laughing.
The other person, with a different perspective, finally recognized the beautiful woman in red.
"Isn't that the young master's daughter, Commander Tao's daughter, right?"
Yan Zhong nodded. "Yes, he is the Tao family's child. He is the same age as my Xiao Bo. They went to school together since they were little, and can be described as childhood sweethearts."
Who is Yan Zhong?
By saying such things in public, he was essentially saying that the Tao family's youngest daughter was practically the future daughter-in-law of the Yan family.
The guests were all discerning people, and upon hearing Yan Zhong's words, they all began to praise the young couple not far away.
"They are truly a perfect couple. Whether in terms of family background, appearance, or talent, the Third Young Master and the Tao family's daughter are a match made in heaven."
"That's right, the Third Young Master and the Tao family's daughter are a match made in heaven, the envy of all!"
