Chapter 235 Don't Talk Logic to Little Peach Blossom
Li Zhen's expression was really not good. He glanced at Sister Qin and the others, then looked at Peng Li. If Xiao Taohua hadn't promised Qin Yunzhi that she wouldn't leave, he would have turned around and left with his people right now.
Especially since a crowd had already gathered around, it felt like this incident was going to be a topic of discussion again.
"If you look so upset, don't look at me. It's not like I caused this. I'm just an onlooker."
"Didn't I tell you to shut up!" Li Zhen really didn't like this person. What did he mean by saying 'the person who marries into their family might suffer'? He even said that to Xiao Taohua. Xiao Taohua would never marry someone like that. People speak without thinking!
"Ah, sorry, I closed it just now, but I can't close it anymore," Peng Li said nonchalantly, completely unconcerned about Li Zhen's threat. Frankly, he didn't take Li Zhen and his group seriously at all.
After all, no matter what, they are from the capital, and their families are far superior to those from the countryside.
As for Cheng Zhen's crush, Peng Li did put in some effort, but to be honest, he wasn't really that invested. Just like with his previous relationships, if he didn't like someone, he could change. And things that could be changed weren't particularly valuable; he could just throw them away if he wanted. He was invested now simply because he hadn't gotten her yet.
Peng Li was 100% confident that his brother would be able to win her over.
What you can't have is always the best.
But that doesn't mean Lin Xiaotao is someone Peng Li truly respects.
If two people are not well-matched, being together now doesn't guarantee being together in the future.
Of course, Peng Li didn't really say this to Cheng Zhen. No matter how much the guy cared about Lin Xiaotao now, his indifference still showed in his tone from time to time.
For example, right now.
Even if you're joking, you can't involve Lin Xiaotao.
"Shut up!" Cheng Zhen glared at him. What kind of time is this to be so unreliable?
"Fine, that's what his buddy said," Peng Li could only reluctantly shut his mouth, but his eyes kept darting around among the people around him, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
"You, your name is Lin Xiaotao, right?" Qin's mother walked up to Lin Xiaotao somewhat awkwardly: "I've heard my son mention you before, and now that I see you, you really are a good girl."
“The girl my brother likes must be a good girl,” Sister Qin chimed in from the side.
Even the little girl next to her was looking at the little peach blossom with curiosity.
Li Zhen and Song Yi's faces were no longer just unpleasant, they were practically dripping with ink. Even Cheng Zhen had his brows furrowed as he stared at the three people.
Before they could react, Little Peach Blossom spoke first: "You've mistaken me for someone else. I'm not the person Qin likes."
Qin's mother was taken aback: "Isn't that right? I just heard Yunzhi call you 'Lin Xiaotao'."
"My name is Lin Xiaotao." Little Peach Blossom nodded.
"Then you haven't made a mistake." Qin's mother smiled.
“But I have nothing to do with Qin. You must have made a mistake. Maybe Qin likes someone else named Lin Xiaotao.” Xiaotaohua said very seriously.
It's normal for people to have the same name; even classmates can have several people with the same name.
Therefore, Little Peach Blossom didn't think about herself at all.
Li Zhen and the others understood what he was saying, but Di Chengmo's expression inevitably carried a strange look.
Li Zhen almost forgot that you shouldn't talk to Xiao Taohua about logic, because a lot of logic doesn't work with her.
"No, I'm sure I wouldn't mistake someone for someone else," Qin's mother shook her head.
“You must have mistaken me for someone else. I’m really not familiar with Qin. She’s not the girl he likes. I’m still young, and Qin is so much older than me. We’re not a good match. You must have mistaken me for someone else,” Little Peach Blossom insisted.
Qin's mother was a little embarrassed, but still said, "My son just asked you to look after us." The implication was that her son wouldn't ask her to look after a girl he didn't like.
"We're all classmates, it's only right that we look after each other. Besides, we just happened to run into each other, there are so many people here." Little Peach Blossom was very straightforward. This was just normal polite behavior, no problem.
The people present: ...
Wow, that makes a lot of sense.
Peng Li didn't know why he felt like laughing so much, and he even laughed out loud.
"What are you laughing at!" Li Zhen glared at him.
"There's no way around it, it's too funny. We can't just hold it in, what if it causes us problems? Haha, that's right, we're not familiar with each other, none of us are familiar with that Qin guy either."
The scene became extremely awkward for a moment.
The Qin family of three didn't know what to say, so they just watched Peng Li laugh so hard he could barely breathe.
After a long while, Peng Li finally stopped smiling: "Why are you all looking at me?"
"Idiot!" Li Zhen spat.
"Hey, are you trying to start a fight? Let me tell you, I've had my eye on you for a long time."
"If you want to get fired, then hit me."
"I got fired? Even if you got fired, I wouldn't stand for it!"
"Alright, shut up, all of you!" Cheng Zhen finally couldn't help but shout.
"It wasn't me who started it," Peng Li muttered.
"Who do you think you are? It's none of your business whether I shut up or not. Little Peach Blossom, let's go. There are so many people here, what are you looking at?"
"But I promised..."
"I agreed..."
"It wasn't you who agreed to this. Let's go."
"Alright then." The choice between Qin Yunzhi and Li Zhen was obvious. Little Peach Blossom nodded obediently and was about to follow Li Zhen and the other man.
Is it possible to leave?
This was all part of the plan.
"No, my son said he wanted you to take care of us for a while," Qin's mother quickly stopped him.
"Can't you see how many people are here!" Li Zhen said impatiently.
"Who are you? How rude of you! I'm talking to that young lady."
"I'm the little girl's brother, so who do you think I am!"
"Well, my son said..."
"Your son said everything. We don't know your son well, we don't even know his name!"
"No, it's my son..."
"Good dogs don't block the way. There are so many people at the school gate, so just wait here. Don't worry, no one will kidnap you. Your safety is not a problem."
"How can you talk like that? You're a college student, and you speak so rudely."
“I’ve always said this. If you don’t like it, just tell us to leave. The fact that you’re blocking our way makes me think you have ulterior motives. Also, my sister has absolutely no relation to your son. Don’t ruin her reputation!”
"You can't leave!" Seeing that Xiao Taohua and the others were really about to leave, Qin's mother became anxious and couldn't help but try to stop them, but Li Zhen and Xiao Taohua avoided them.
“What are you doing!”
“Hey classmate, we’re all classmates. My son asked Lin Xiaotao to look after him for a bit, and she agreed. You can’t go back on your word.”
"What the hell? You can't understand what I'm saying, can you?!"
"All I know is that a person should keep their word," said Qin's mother.
"Okay, you keep your word, right? Alright then, we'll wait here." Li Zhen originally didn't want to pay attention to this group of people, but since they wanted to scheme against them, then so be it. He wanted to see what else was waiting for Little Peach Blossom.
