Xiao Chen took a few steps forward and squeezed past the people around him, then he saw a burly figure squatting beside the stall.
The stall owner was a thin, gentle young man. He felt a little embarrassed when he heard Miss Zhou's bodyguard ask such a personal question.
"Bodyguard Lu, I'm still single! Please take this comb back to Miss Zhou..."
Before the stall owner could finish his words, the things in his hands were pulled away and thrown on the stall.
After throwing away his things, Xiao Chen grabbed the squatting big guy and said, "Let's go!"
Seeing Xiao Chen's angry face, Lu Ying felt puzzled, but also a little scared, so she obediently let Xiao Chen pull her back to Zhou's house.
Only after they entered Zhou's house did Xiao Chen let go of the wrist he was holding.
Zhou Xiang looked up at the dining table and looked at Xiao Chen in surprise, who was still angry. This guy was not only invisible but also rarely got angry. What happened today?
If she saw correctly, Xiao Chen had just let go of Lu Ying's wrist.
Putting down his nephew in his arms, he said, "Yan'er, this painting is good, it has a certain artistic conception. You can go back and practice with your father."
"Okay, Dad, let's go back to the house."
Zhou Niao stood up, took his son's hand, and left the restaurant.
Zhou Xiang then looked at Xiao Chen, "What's wrong? Is there something going on at school?"
Xiao Chen took a breath and calmed down the anger in his heart. "I, I'm fine at school. I came out for a walk."
"So you were just now?"
Xiao Chen looked at Lu Ying and said nothing.
Lu Ying still looked puzzled. Seeing her sister-in-law looking at her, she shook her head and said, "I don't know either! It's just..."
Before Lu Ying could finish her words, she was interrupted by Xiao Chen, "Ms. Zhou, tell her to get out of the way. I'm telling you something."
Zhou Xiang looked back and forth between the two of them for a few times, then nodded, "Lü Ying, you go back to the house first."
"Sister-in-law~"
"You two are obviously not on the same wavelength. I'll listen to them one by one. Go back to the house and be obedient."
Zhou Xiang soothed her in a gentle tone. Lu Ying's girlish heart was revealed early on. Zhou Xiang was worried that she would feel wronged, so he soothed her in a gentle voice.
Lu Ying stomped her feet, snorted at Xiao Chen, and turned back to her room.
The sturdy body and delicate movements were eye-catching to Zhou Xiang, but she squinted her eyes and looked at Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen's face still had the same expression as before, but the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were slightly raised.
"Speak!"
Zhou Xiang interrupted him by speaking up and looking towards Lu Ying's back.
Xiao Chen retracted his gaze. "You should take better care of this. Not only did your bodyguard brazenly ask people personal questions on the street, she even nearly accepted a comb that someone had given her as a gift. She was told to bring it back to you. If word gets out, it'll affect your reputation."
Ling Ran sat up straight, "Who is it?"
Zhou Xiang slapped the person next to him and said, "Don't interrupt, Xiao Chen. You looked very angry just now."
"Of course, she doesn't care about her image at all, and she can't just accept gifts for you outside, especially if they're from other men."
"What question did she ask anyone?"
"...So, is this something a girl can just casually ask?"
Girls? I guess the whole town didn't consider these two sisters as girls, except for Xie Chen and the person in front of him.
Zhou Xiang rolled his eyes and asked again, "Are you speaking up for me?"
"certainly!"
"Do you like me?"
Ling Ran stood up immediately, as if he would beat anyone up if Xiao Chen dared to nod.
Xiao Chen was frightened by Miss Zhou's words and waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, absolutely not."
Zhou Xiang sighed, "I'm so unpopular!"
"Wife!"
Ling Ran was dissatisfied that his wife flirted with other men in front of him.
"boss!"
Xiao Chen didn't know how to explain it.
Zhou Xiang nodded, "I see. You hate me, so you deliberately threw the comb someone gave you as a gift to prevent others from liking me."
Xiao Chen raised his head and sighed helplessly, "Boss! Just tell me straight up, don't try to get Mr. Ling to beat me up."
"If you don't like me, why do you care about gifts from others? According to ancient etiquette, you can't just accept a comb. Not to mention in this day and age, as long as the person who accepts it is not me, what does it have to do with me?
Besides, you said, that stall only sold combs. Could he have given away anything else? Perhaps he was just grateful that the town had given them a livelihood. Are you overthinking this?
Since you are overthinking it and it’s not because you like me, then why are you so angry?
Also, Lu Ying plans to go to the street every weekend to try her luck and see if there is someone with unique vision like Xie Chen. She is a 21-year-old girl with dreams.
I support her going. They are all kind-hearted girls who deserve their happiness. I want to act as a matchmaker, but the other party won't take it. So isn't it the only way to find a needle in a haystack?
Maybe there will be someone who doesn't mind her figure but is attracted by her heart? At worst, if someone is attracted by her status as my personal bodyguard, I can force him to give her a home.
"Miss Zhou, you are harming her and others."
There was some anxiety in Xiao Chen's tone.
Zhou Xiang waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about it. Go back to work. I don't believe it. If my elder sister can find it, then there's no way my younger sister can't find it."
Xiao Chen was pushed into the elevator by Ling Ran and returned to the street in a daze.
Ling Ran returned to sit next to his wife and asked, "Is this the person you were planning to introduce to Lu Ying?"
Zhou Xiang nodded, "He declined."
"Then you just..."
"I just looked at him and he didn't seem like... He doesn't like me, why is he so angry? This isn't ancient times, what's wrong with giving me a comb? Others just sell this.
