Chapter 12 The Coachman's Dark Moonlight Green Plum 11
Chen Qingpeng seemed to be organizing his words in his mind. After a long while, he finally spoke, "Xiao Zhao thinks you are very good and wants to marry you. What do you think?"
Shen Xinran glanced at the half-open door of Chen Qingpeng's room. She knew that Zhao Huaxing was inside.
She thought about the line in the plot and said firmly, "Is he joking? My future husband, although not rich, will not be a rickshaw driver either."
After Shen Xinran finished speaking, he added: "If possible, I hope my fiancé is a peerless hero."
After the Chen family went bankrupt, Chen Wanrong fantasized that one day a hero would appear and save her from this danger.
But Zhao Huaxing was clearly not that hero. Although he did save Chen Wanrong, he was just a rickshaw driver. No hero rescues people by pulling a rickshaw.
Chen Qingpeng nodded with satisfaction. He dared to call his daughter over because he knew that his daughter would definitely not agree.
In this way, not only would Zhao Huaxing not be offended, but Chen Wanrong's reputation would also be preserved. After all, Chen Wanrong had no idea that Zhao Huaxing was hiding in the room.
Chen Qingpeng waved at Shen Xinran, "Okay, Dad got it, you go back to your room first."
When Shen Xinran left, he deliberately glanced at the door of Chen Qingpeng's room, but unexpectedly, he met Zhao Huaxing's eyes.
It's over, I've been discovered.
Shen Xinran turned his head firmly and pretended that he saw nothing.
A peerless hero? Zhao Huaxing in the room raised one corner of his lips and sneered.
After Shen Xinran left completely, Chen Qingpeng opened the door and sighed, "Xiao Zhao, you heard it too. Wanrong is just a little girl who hasn't grown up yet. She even said she wanted to marry a hero. If this gets out, won't people laugh at her!"
Zhao Huaxing understood Chen Qingpeng's implication, and his eyes flashed. "It's okay, I was drunk and reckless just now."
Chen Qingpeng was very satisfied with Zhao Huaxing's understanding. He patted Zhao Huaxing on the shoulder and sighed, "Uncle Chen can only say that you and Wanrong are not destined to be together."
"Uncle Chen, I understand. I won't disturb you and aunt's rest. I'll go back first." After Zhao Huaxing said this, he turned around and left.
The moment he turned around, Zhao Huaxing's eyes turned disdainful. He never believed in God, only in himself. Fate and the like were all created by oneself.
Chen Qingpeng looked at Zhao Huaxing's back as he left and shook his head. Zhao Huaxing had a good height and good looks, but his only shortcoming was his family background.
Although his family has fallen on hard times, Wanrong is the girl he raised with his arms around her.
How could he possibly leave his daughter to a rickshaw driver and let her live a life of having no food to eat?
…
At night, Shen Xinran suddenly realized that she had eaten all her food. How could this be possible? How could a young girl who was still growing go hungry?
Suddenly remembering the bowl of wontons that Zhao Huaxing ate in front of her, Shen Xinran felt craving for it.
She has money now, it’s just wontons, she can buy them herself!
Shen Xinran left as soon as he said he would, put on his clothes and went out.
The wonton stall was at an intersection one kilometer away from Wutong Alley, and Shen Xinran walked there for about fifteen minutes.
The steam from the wonton soup warmed Shen Xinran's eyes. She smiled at the boss and said, "Boss, I want a bowl of wontons with more chili and less salt."
The boss nodded as he made the wontons. "Okay, sit over there first. I'll bring it to you in a minute."
Shen Xinran only felt a chill on his back, as if he was being stared at by some unknown creature.
Then, she turned around and saw the man sitting at the table against the wall in the corner.
Well, women's sixth sense is still very accurate.
If you stick your head out, you get a knife; if you shrink your neck, you get another knife.
Shen Xinran walked directly in front of Zhao Huaxing and smiled at him, "What a coincidence, you're here to eat wontons too."
Zhao Huaxing curled his lips and smiled, "Why? You don't want to eat wontons with your peerless hero!"
He found it, he must have found it!
Shen Xinran's face flushed red. After looking around, she asked in confusion, "What are you talking about? I don't understand!"
Isn't it just that her marriage proposal was rejected? As long as she insists she doesn't know, even the male lead can't do anything to her!
Zhao Huaxing curled his lips and smiled meaningfully, "I hope you really didn't understand."
After Shen Xinran snorted coldly, he ran to the table farthest from Zhao Huaxing as fast as he could and sat down.
The wontons were ready, and Shen Xinran devoured them almost immediately. The hot wontons were truly delicious on this cold night.
Shen Xinran narrowed his eyes happily.
Zhao Huaxing watched the girl run away like a rabbit, and his thin lips slowly stretched into a playful arc.
Then he saw Shen Xinran finish a bowl of wontons by himself and drink most of the soup.
The boss was afraid that Shen Xinran was not full, so he asked her, "Are you full? If not, I'll give you some more."
Shen Xinran waved his hand and smiled faintly: "No, I can't eat too much at night."
Zhao Huaxing couldn't help laughing. "That's not a lot." He wondered how she could fit so many wontons in such a small stomach.
When Shen Xinran turned around, she saw Zhao Huaxing still staring at her intently. She immediately took out a handkerchief from her bosom, wiped her mouth, and smiled shyly, "Actually, I'm not like this on weekdays!"
Zhao Huaxing suppressed his laughter and nodded.
Shen Xinran tried desperately to make amends: "The book says that as long as you're under 18, you'll grow. I still have two months until I'm 18!"
So, she eats more because she is still growing.
The smile in Zhao Huaxing's eyes grew more intense. What should he do? She seemed to make this terrible world not so bad anymore.
This was the first time Shen Xinran saw Zhao Huaxing smile so happily. She couldn't help but mutter under her breath: "This male lead is quite good-looking."
Just when Shen Xinran was distracted, a woman's scream suddenly came from the alley next to him.
Following the sound, I saw a female student in school uniform being stopped by a burly man. "Hand over all the money you have!"
"But I don't have any money." The female student was so scared that she shrank her body and kept backing away, her face pale.
Shen Xinran frowned and subconsciously wanted to walk over there. But as soon as he took a step, Zhao Huaxing grabbed his arm. "Didn't your parents tell you not to meddle in other people's business when you're out?"
Shen Xinran thought Zhao Huaxing didn't hear her, so she explained to him, "That female student is in danger, let's go help her!"
Zhao Huaxing sneered, "Do you think you're the only one who heard it? Look, do they move?"
Shen Xinran then realized that many people were looking towards the alley, but no one took any action. In this day and age, if you can't even protect yourself, how can you protect others?
Zhao Huaxing didn't care about that. He grabbed Shen Xinran's hand and walked towards home. The eldest lady was just full of sympathy. After seeing so many things, it was nothing.
