Looking at the marbled pork belly, Shen Banxia's eyes crinkled with laughter. Haha, thanks to Su Wenze, Xu Wenzhu, and Zhou Mingjiao, they've significantly enriched her life.
After thinking about it, Shen Banxia felt that she should find a suitable opportunity to bring it up.
Hmm? I'll be going to the post office in a couple of days, then I'll have a chance.
Thinking of this, Shen Banxia couldn't help but think of her grandparents. They had really arranged everything for her. Even when she went to the countryside, they specially asked someone to help her. They were even worried that she would be bullied in the countryside, so they specially asked her friends to write letters and send her things on time.
But now she doesn't even know where they are.
Initially, Shen Banxia planned to go with them, but the two old people threatened to kill themselves, forcing her to give up the idea.
If given the chance, Shen Banxia would still like to inquire about it.
While Shen Banxia was thinking about these things, she noticed that Xu Wenzhu had actually returned, looking listless and not at all like her usual arrogant self.
"Tell me, am I really that bad? Why doesn't he even look at me no matter what I do? I even went to the countryside for him, but he still won't look at me. What should I do to make him look at me?" Xu Wenzhu actually asked Shen Banxia for an answer.
Shen Banxia pointed to herself, "Are you asking me?"
Xu Wenzhu rolled her eyes inelegantly. "Is there anyone else here? If I'm not asking you, who else could I be asking?"
Seeing her pathetic state, Shen Banxia felt there was no need to pity her at all. Indeed, there's always a reason why someone is pitiful. "Just because you ask me doesn't mean I have to answer. Besides, you really are terrible. You ask others for help, and you're so arrogant. Did someone see you?"
Xu Wenzhu's face darkened. "What's so great about you? Humph, I don't think I'm bad at all. Look around you, who is prettier than me besides you?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, I really didn't expect to hear a word of praise from you in my lifetime. It seems you are quite self-aware, which is commendable."
Xu Wenzhu said irritably, "Who cares about your praise? I'm a pretty good person to begin with."
Shen Banxia rolled her eyes in return. If you could suppress that upturned corner of your mouth, then that statement would be quite believable.
"Alright, I see you're fine now. You'd be better off going to find your Wenze brother. What's the point of talking to me about this? Do you think I look very experienced? Like you said, I'm prettier than you. This kind of thing shouldn't be my problem," Shen Banxia found it quite amusing to tease Xu Wenzhu.
Xu Wenzhu pouted and complained, "I think you're too narcissistic. How can you praise yourself like that? But I have to say, after talking to you for a few minutes, I feel like I'm good again. Actually, I just think Zhou Mingjiao is pretty pretentious. If you like Wenze, just say it directly. If you're so capable, compete with me openly and honestly. I don't mind. Doing those sneaky things is really annoying."
Shen Banxia shared the same sentiment, and the word "white lotus" popped into her mind at just the right moment.
I couldn't help but pause for a moment, huh? Isn't the lotus symbolizing purity and nobility?
Zhou Mingjiao is not worthy of the praise of "rising from the mud unsullied".
She shook her head. Oh well, she'd gotten used to weird words coming up all the time.
"In that case, why don't you just let go of your Wenze brother and find someone else to like? There are thousands of men in the world, so one more won't make a difference." Of course, for Shen Banxia herself, a wise person doesn't fall in love.
"Hmph, no way! I've been determined to marry Brother Wenze since I was little. I don't think anyone likes him more than me," Xu Wenzhu refused to give up.
"Just because you like someone doesn't mean they like you back," Shen Banxia retorted.
She felt that although Xu Wenzhu was sharp-tongued and unlikable, she was straightforward and said what she thought, unlike Jian Sufeng, who seemed nice on the surface but was actually... Shen Banxia thought, better to forget about her.
Although she didn't overtly show anything, Shen Banxia's intuition told her that she was not a simple person.
Therefore, Shen Banxia preferred to deal with Xu Wenzhu rather than have too much involvement with Jian Sufeng.
But sometimes, it's like she doesn't understand human language. Even though she's already made it very clear, she still likes to stick close to him.
I have no idea what they're after.
Shen Banxia didn't make things difficult for herself with questions she couldn't understand. After all, no matter what the matter was, the truth would eventually come out.
Getting off topic, Xu Wenzhu paused for a moment, then said uncertainly, "I think he must like me. If he didn't like me, why would he clean up my messes?"
Shen Banxia discovered that you can never wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep.
"If you think you like it, then you like it. Anyway, I don't have much experience with this kind of thing."
Xu Wenzhu wanted to talk to Shen Banxia again. Although Shen Banxia had never been polite to her, her intuition told her that Shen Banxia was a good person.
That's why she always likes to come closer.
"Why don't you put in a good word for me with Brother Wenze? I think you're quite good at talking, and I'll definitely thank you properly then." Thinking of the things she had asked for when she wrote home last time, she was willing to give them up if Shen Banxia could help her.
Shen Banxia waved her hand, "Please, even if you praise me for being good at talking, I won't do it. I've already told you, no experience is no experience. Besides, who cares about your thanks?"
Xu Wenzhu rolled her eyes in exasperation. How could she possibly think Shen Banxia was a good person?
What kind of good person would act like this? They almost drove people half to their deaths with anger.
"I'm not the kind of person who just says thank you verbally. I already went back to ask for the bicycle ticket last time. If you help me win over Brother Wenze, I'll give you a bicycle right away."
Upon hearing this, Shen Banxia shamefully felt tempted. What should she do? The temptation was too strong. How could she refuse?
“Hey, Xu Wenzhu, your family must be really rich,” Shen Banxia couldn’t help but exclaim.
Xu Wenzhu didn't want to hear that. "My family doesn't have any money. It's just that my parents feel sorry for me. Just tell me if you're willing to do it or not."
Shen Banxia wanted to agree immediately, but the crucial point was that she simply couldn't do it; she couldn't expect Su Wenze to agree to something like that.
Otherwise, could she have beaten Su Wenze up just like she did Zhao Zhigao, making him change his mind and say he liked Xu Wenzhu?
Sometimes I think about it, and it seems like this is actually quite feasible, right?
