"Ranran, no matter which 'Old Wang' you know, 'Old Wang' is outdated now. 'Old Chen' is all the rage now," Xu Ye continued, gently smoothing Xu Moran's wind-blown bangs as he spoke.
"What Old Chen?" Xu Moran asked Xu Ye, completely bewildered. As for his intimate gesture of smoothing his bangs earlier, although it hadn't been for long or happened often, she was already used to it.
"Ranran, when you have free time, go online more often. Just now, the 'Old Wang next door' who went viral all over the internet has been successfully replaced by 'Old Chen next door'." After saying that, he deliberately asked Xu Moran, "Now you should know who Old Wang is, right? He's the one that everyone calls 'Old Wang next door,' but now we're talking about 'Old Chen next door.'"
Xu Moran, "..."
Although she wasn't a netizen, she was still aware of some popular things online, such as the "neighbor Wang" incident. No matter what happened, netizens always liked to mention "neighbor Wang."
"Old Wang next door" is just a synonym.
She bent down and gently patted Xiao Mei's head, pretending that she didn't want to talk to Xu Ye, that idiot.
Xu Ye didn't care at all whether Xu Moran wanted to talk to him or not, and continued talking about him, "In the past, whenever a woman cheated, it was always Old Wang next door who did it, right? Until recently, a celebrity surnamed Wang was cheated on by his wife. Old Wang, who was always hated, was turned into a pitiful victim. Now, as long as a woman cheats on her husband, the person who helps her cheat is Old Chen next door. Moreover, judging from Old Wang's example, no matter how many men he cheats on, his wife is actually cheating on him all along. Ah... a green hat as big as the sky is put on his head, and he is completely unaware of it. Thinking about it, he is a pitiful person. Poor Old Chen next door, his wife is so brave. I'm afraid that not only is he being cheated on, but even his ancestral graves are probably stained green."
If Xu Moran had just met him, she would definitely think he was out of his mind to spout such nonsense. Now that she has known him for a day and a night, she knows that he must have his reasons for saying such things.
Sure enough, just as they finished speaking, a man who looked to be about fifty years old passed by them. Because of what Xu Ye had said, he deliberately slowed down his pace as he passed by, clearly listening.
Xu Moran wasn't the kind of person who wasn't very bright; he already knew the purpose of Xu Ye bringing up Old Wang and Old Chen next door. He was reminding the rich woman's husband that he had been cheated on.
Hitting someone from across the mountain – that's the mark of a master strategist.
As Xu Moran looked at Xu Ye's profile again, she couldn't help but ask him once more, "Who exactly are you?"
Why did she feel he was hiding something, shrouded in a layer of mist, making it impossible for her to see clearly no matter how wide she opened her eyes?
Xu Ye remained calm, his eyes undisturbed. "Ranran, I am your little Ye Ye."
Theoretically speaking, any man, regardless of his appearance, would make people feel disgusted and give them goosebumps if he said such a sentence. However, Xu Ye, a man who looks masculine and upright, said such a sentence without any sense of disgust.
This is probably the charm of Xu Ye; it doesn't need to be consciously noticed, it's there anytime, anywhere.
Just like the innate nobility and temperament that emanates from the depths of his bones, it cannot be faked.
"Xu Ye." Xu Moran withdrew his gaze from his face and looked ahead. "Once we're done with this busy period, I'll take you to find your family."
A cold smile flashed across Xu Ye's eyes, so quickly that Xu Moran, no longer looking at him, didn't notice. His tone remained as relaxed as ever, "Okay, thank you, Ranran. Ranran, you're so good to me." (The following is a separate excerpt from Chapter 31 of "Picking Up an Older Brother as My Husband": This is only a small part of the original text.
