Chapter 120: Excellence Does Not Mean Suitable
“A-choo!”
"Chen Can, are you okay? Did you catch a cold?" Xu Wan looked at Chen Can with concern.
Chen Can waved his hands, puffed out his chest, and said proudly: "It's okay, maybe the leaders are discussing the candidate for that position and mentioned me."
"Chen Can, my eldest brother told me that the competition for that position is fierce, and you are not the best among them."
Xu Wan's words made Chen Can very dissatisfied, but he did not show it on his face. He knew what she said, otherwise why would he have been finding excuses to ask her out during this period of time.
"Excellent doesn't mean suitable." Chen Can made no secret of his determination to get that position.
"Xiao Wan, do you want some shaved ice?"
Without waiting for Xu Wan to answer, Chen Can pulled Xu Wan to sit on the shaved ice stall.
After ordering two bowls of shaved ice and two bottles of soda, Chen Can pushed one of them in front of Xu Wan and smiled gently: "You've been walking for so long, you must be thirsty, right?"
"I..." Xu Wan bit her lip, wanting to say that she was having that and couldn't eat ice.
But she couldn't bear to reject Chen Can's kindness, so she could only smile and nod: "I am thirsty, Chen Can, thank you."
"Xiao Wan, I told you, don't be so polite to me. This is the last time, do you hear me? If there is a next time, I will be really angry with you."
"I've been in a bad mood recently, and you've been with me all the time. If anyone wants to say thank you, I should be the one to thank you."
"Xiao Wan, a friend in need is a friend indeed. I was ignorant before, but now I know who is truly kind to me."
Chen Can tentatively placed his hand on the back of Xu Wan's hand.
During the time they were together, he had always been well behaved towards her and never did anything physical to her.
Because her appearance and figure really left him with no idea.
But if you want to go further, you have to sacrifice yourself and just treat it as touching a piece of pork.
Xu Wan was stunned, her heartbeat getting faster and faster out of control.
She stared at Chen Can with her eyes wide open, her face showing undisguised flattery.
"Chen Can, you...you...what do you mean by this?" Xu Wan was worried that she might have misunderstood.
"Xiao Wan, isn't my performance obvious these days?"
Chen Can held Xu Wan's hand and stared into her eyes, imagining that he was facing Ye Zhiqiu: "Can't you feel my feelings for you?"
"Xiao Wan, actually, I have liked you since we were classmates. I wanted to confess my feelings to you, but my father left."
"Old Xu was a general, and Uncle Xu and his brothers were also very powerful. I was nothing at that time, and I didn't dare to face you."
“When I had achievements, I wanted to find you, but I didn’t expect to be tricked by Shen Liya again.
I don't like her and I have no feelings for her, but I did that and I have to be responsible for her. ”
"Xiao Wan, I have always treasured your presence in my heart all these years. When I dream about you in the middle of the night, I feel extremely sad."
Chen Can placed Xu Wan's hand on his forehead, he closed his eyes and looked painful.
"Chen Can."
Xu Wan was so moved by Chen Can that tears welled up in her eyes. She choked up and said, "I have liked you since school, and I have never been able to forget you all these years."
"My family introduced me to several blind dates, but I don't think they are as good as you."
"I know I will wait for you one day."
Xu Wan smiled and nodded continuously: "God will not let down those who work hard. I have waited for it, I have waited for it!"
"Xiao Wan, give me some time, I will take care of my side."
Chen Can used a handkerchief to wipe away Xu Wan's tears. Under the table, where no one could see, he wiped his hands vigorously with the handkerchief and threw it away.
After sending Xu Wan to the gate of the Air Force compound, Xu Wan held Chen Can's arm and was reluctant to let go: "Chen Can, the compound is too dark, I'm scared."
Chen Can naturally knew that Xu Wan couldn't wait to take him home to meet her family. He coaxed her softly, "Xiao Wan, if your father and your eldest brother saw me, I'm afraid they would peel off my skin."
"No." Xu Wan raised her thick double chin: "If they dare to do that to you, I will cut off all ties with them!"
Chen Can quickly stopped Xu Wan from thinking this: "Xiao Wan, this won't do. You have to promise me that you can't do this. Do you hear me? No matter what your family says about me, you can't do this!"
What a joke. He approached Xu Wan just to get the help of the Xu family. If Xu Wan broke off relations with them, what use would it be to him?
"Xiao Wan, I can't go home with you right now. First, I'm not divorced yet. It's not appropriate. It's not good for your reputation."
"I don't care." Xu Wan hugged Chen Can's neck with both hands: "Chen Can, as long as I can be with you, I don't care about anything. I don't care what others think of me or what they say about me."
"Silly girl, I care."
Chen Can suppressed his nausea and tapped Xu Wan's bulbous nose: "Xiao Wan, I am with you and I don't want you to suffer any grievances."
"Wait for me. I will definitely marry you into my Chen family and make you my legitimate wife."
"I will complete the divorce procedures in the next few days. Once my promotion is finalized, I will be able to go to your house and meet your father and brother with my head held high, proving that I am qualified to marry you."
"Xiao Wan, I don't want to be looked down upon by your family. I want to be worthy of you."
Chen Can grabbed Xu Wan's hand and kissed it: "Just be patient for a while, okay? Be obedient, huh?"
"Achan, I will listen to you in everything."
Xu Wan threw herself into Chen Can's arms and hugged him tightly, so she didn't notice that there was no warmth at all on Chen Can's face, only endless disgust.
The two of them stayed in the car for a while. Unable to persuade Xu Wan, Chen Can sent Xu Wan to the vicinity of Xu's house.
Xu Wan walked into the house humming a song like a butterfly, and was stopped by her eldest brother Xu Xun: "Xiao Wan, was the person who just sent you back Chen Can?"
Xu Wan avoided Xu Xun's gaze: "Brother, what are you talking about? I came back by myself."
Xu Xun was very angry: "I saw it all."
"I see, why are you asking me?"
Xu Wan glared at Xu Xun: "Brother, I am your sister, not your soldier. Don't talk to me in this way."
"Xiao Wan, what on earth are you going to do? Chen Can is a married man. Now not only our compound, but other compounds know about you two, and you don't take your reputation seriously!"
"Brother, since it has come to this, I will say it clearly. Chen Can and I are together. I want to marry him. I like him and he is the only one I want in my life!"
Xu Xun was so angry that he slapped Xu Wan. Kang Zhimiao quickly stepped forward and pulled Xu Xun aside: "Old Xu, if you have anything to say, just talk it over and don't use force."
"Can you please talk to her nicely? Listen to what bullshit she's saying!"
Xu Xun pointed at Xu Wan angrily: "I don't know what kind of magic potion Chen Can gave her!"
