Chapter 48 Do you like my sister?
Lin Luoxi felt embarrassed for troubling people every time.
Seeing that Lin Luoxi was rejecting him and being so polite to him, Xie Hanchuan didn't say anything more, lowered his head, and walked in sync with Lin Luoxi.
"Can I ask you for help when I can't carry it anymore?" Lin Luoxi felt sorry for Xie Hanchuan, who looked dejected after she refused, and asked again.
"Really?" Xie Hanchuan, who was originally thinking about how to make Lin Luoxi not be so polite to him, perked up instantly when he heard Lin Luoxi's words.
Good heavens, looking at her with those big, wet eyes, Lin Luoxi's heart was completely melted. What was the difference between him and a modern-day puppy? He was simply too good to pass up.
"Yes, really." Lin Luoxi roared at Xie Hanchuan in her heart, but nodded seriously on the surface.
"Can you let me help you now?" Xie Hanchuan suddenly grabbed something and continued to speak to Lin Luoxi with that same expression.
"Okay!" Xie Hanchuan's expression pleased Lin Luoxi greatly, and she nodded uncontrollably.
"Heh..." Xie Hanchuan couldn't help but laugh when he saw that his charm had worked. He reached out and took the basket from Lin Luoxi's back and carried it himself.
To prevent Lin Luoxi from taking the basket back and carrying it herself, Xie Hanchuan walked quickly forward.
Lin Luoxi watched Xie Hanchuan carrying the basket on his back without any difficulty and sighed in her heart, "Men are still stronger. No wonder the old people like to favor sons over daughters."
Seeing that Xie Hanchuan could walk so fast even with a basket on his back, Lin Wenqian also sped up and caught up with him.
"Brother Hanchuan, do you like my sister?" Lin Wenqian caught up and immediately asked the shocking question.
Upon hearing Lin Wenqian's words, Xie Hanchuan stumbled and almost tripped over his own feet.
"Was what I did really that obvious?" Xie Hanchuan asked somewhat nervously.
"It's very obvious. Anyone with eyes can see it." Lin Wenqian was quite surprised that Xie Hanchuan admitted it so honestly.
"So, would you like me to be your brother-in-law?" Xie Hanchuan not only wasn't embarrassed, but he also shamelessly asked the next question.
"It's not a matter of whether I like you or not. As long as my sister likes you, it doesn't matter who my sister's husband is." Lin Wenqian replied with a hidden meaning when he saw Xie Hanchuan's shameless question.
"What? Anyone can be your brother-in-law?" Xie Hanchuan felt a sense of crisis upon hearing Lin Wenqian's words.
"Yes, it's mainly because of my sister. As for me, I can only say I love her because of her." Lin Wenqian saw the tension in Xie Hanchuan's eyes and gave a sly smile.
But fearing Xie Hanchuan would see it, that smile quickly disappeared.
"No, you can only like me." Xie Hanchuan started to get anxious because he didn't know if Lin Luoxi had any feelings for him. He planned to infiltrate Lin Luoxi's inner circle first.
Once he wins over Lin Luoxi's family, they will definitely agree to let her marry him.
Xie Hanchuan had no parents to teach him, so he didn't know how to pursue a girl he liked. He only knew that if he could win over the girl's family, she would definitely like him too.
"Then we'll have to see how you perform." Lin Wenqian actually thought highly of Xie Hanchuan. After all, if someone could still like his sister and want to marry her even after his sister was proposed to, then their character couldn't be too bad.
In addition, he had a lot of interaction with Xie Hanchuan and knew Xie Hanchuan quite well.
If his sister were to marry Xie Hanchuan, she would be a good marriage prospect, without the difficulties caused by her in-laws or the complicated interpersonal relationships to deal with.
"Okay, I'll do my best." After saying that, he fell silent, lost in thought about how to behave in a way that would win Lin Luoxi's favor and make his future brother-in-law like him...
Lin Luoxi, who was walking behind, naturally overheard the conversation between the two people in front of her.
Lin Luoxi was delighted to hear this. If Xie Hanchuan was a good choice, she wouldn't mind considering it while she was still making money.
But if this man slows down her earning speed, even if he's a handsome young man, she can choose not to have him.
As long as she has money, she won't find a younger man like him.
The atmosphere was a bit somber along the way because Lin Wenqian had brought up the topic.
But who is Lin Luoxi? She can pretend she didn't hear the conversation between the two young people.
Having no knowledge of the prices in this world, they could only ask Han Chuan for clarification.
Throughout the journey, Lin Luoxi asked questions, and Xie Hanchuan answered.
Xie Hanchuan is an orphan who has supported himself since childhood, so he is quite familiar with the prices and market conditions outside.
He was able to answer most of the questions Lin Luoxi asked.
By the time Lin Luo and the other two had traveled along the mainland and then by small boat to the county town gate, Lin Luoxi had already grasped the local market prices and trends.
Standing atop the city gate, where the three magnificent characters of "Qingshui City" were inscribed, Lin Luoxi vowed to work hard and earn money so she could buy a carriage someday. Her legs were still trembling from walking.
However, she and Lin Wenqian had never been to the county before, so they could only follow closely behind Xie Hanchuan, not daring to fall behind.
Lin Wenqian was even worse, just like a grandmother visiting the city, looking around with an air of naiveté, which in fact meant he had never seen the world before.
"This is the best restaurant in the world. I used to bring all my large game here to sell. The manager here is the most honest and fair-minded person in the whole county, and the prices he offers are just..."
Xie Hanchuan pointed to the three-story restaurant that read "The Number One Restaurant in the World" on the plaque and introduced it to Lin Luoxi and Lin Wenqian.
"Brother Xie, you flatter me too much." A hearty voice came from ahead.
As soon as Lin Luoxi and Lin Wenqian looked up, they saw the number one restaurant in the world right in front of them.
The two siblings craned their necks to look inside; the main hall was packed, showing that the restaurant was very busy.
"Manager Xu, I'm not exaggerating. If I hadn't met such a good manager like you, I probably would have starved to death." Xie Hanchuan never hesitated to praise his benefactors.
"Hehe, Brother Xie, what good stuff do you have today? The wild boar you sent yesterday was great, the customers all said so."
Shopkeeper Xu didn't stand on ceremony with Xie Hanchuan. When he saw Xie Hanchuan coming over with his basket on his back again, his eyes lit up instantly. Without waiting for Xie Hanchuan to speak, he excitedly walked over.
"Manager Xu, we brought a tiger with us today." Xie Hanchuan didn't hide anything. Seeing Manager Xu's excited expression, he knew that the wild boar meat he brought yesterday was in high demand.
"Really?" Xu Zhangui looked at Xie Hanchuan with surprise in his eyes, his fingers trembling with excitement.
"Brother Xie, you know what? You've been a huge help to me. Come on, let's talk inside." Xu Zhangui looked at the bustling street and knew it wasn't a good place to talk, so he quickly invited Xie Hanchuan, Lin Luoxi, and Lin Wenqian to the back room.
