Chapter 425: 424 was very absurd before

Bai Xiaoxiao looked at Mother Bai with surprise, “Mom, you were just talking about not being feudalistic, but isn’t what you’re doing now exactly that?”

“I’m just afraid you would be taken advantage of, Xiaoxiao. Call Ranran and tell her not to go out for dinner today. Just now, your Auntie Wang called, saying she already arranged a meeting with that young lawyer. We have to rush to the restaurant now. You should meet him.”

Mother Bai explained with a gentle smile.

“Mom, I said I’m against blind dates. Why did you arrange this without my consent?”

Bai Xiaoxiao frowned, clearly upset.

“Isn’t this all for your benefit? You’re unemployed anyways, let me tell you, Xiaoxiao, the man who is really good to you in your current state is the one who is truly good.”

Implicit in her words was the idea of identifying a suitable man for Bai Xiaoxiao before she fully recovers.

Bai Xiaoxiao looked at Mother Bai in disbelief, “Mom, I’m not going. Please clarify this with Auntie Wang, and don’t just go ahead and find boyfriends for me. I… I have someone I like.”

“You like someone?”

Mother Bai’s gaze suddenly sharpened, she stared fixedly at Bai Xiaoxiao, as if trying to see if she was lying.

Bai Xiaoxiao met Mother Bai’s gaze squarely, showing a hint of defiance sparkling through her pursed lips.

There was a long silence before Mother Bai finally asked, “Xiaoxiao, have you fallen for Luo Haofeng?”

Bai Xiaoxiao frowned, “Mom, don’t push yourself into my life about who I like. I do have someone I like, and when the time is right, I’ll let you and dad know.”

A strange emotion and struggle flashed through Mother Bai’s eyes, she said in a low voice, “Xiaoxiao, if the man you like is Luo Haofeng, you should put a stop to it now while your feelings for him haven’t run too deep yet. I don’t want him to be with you.”

Shen Yuting and Jiang Liu spent the Spring Festival together, only to find out today that he is unemployed.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was a bit tense.

Jiang Liu looked at Shen Yuting’s displeased face, remained silent for a long while and then gently explained, “Yuting, don’t get angry yet. I just haven’t found the right job yet.”

“Be honest with me, what did you do before?” ƒreewebɳovel.com

Shen Yuting sat at the dining table, her gaze serious as she eyed Jiang Liu across the table. Over these days, she thought that he was a man of good taste and should come from a well-off family, otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to afford this luxury apartment and lead such a lavish lifestyle.

“I held many jobs before, Yuting. Don’t worry, I won’t let you support me,” Jiang Liu answered with a smile, the gentleness in his eyes dissipated Shen Yuting’s anger. She lowered her gaze, bit her lip, and said stiffly: “I don’t like men who live off women, nor men who live off their parents. No matter what work you find or how much money you earn, as long as you work hard, that’s enough.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Liu’s expression slightly changed, some emotions welled up in his dark eyes, but he quickly suppressed them.

Someone had said these words to him many years ago.

However, he couldn’t endure hardships and relied on his good looks. Over the years, he hadn’t taken on many serious jobs…

Unable to hear his response, Shen Yuting lifted her head and locked eyes with him, she sententiously said, “Jiang Liu, I’ve been genuine in wanting to give us a chance these past couple of days. If you have any sincerity towards me, start looking for a job this afternoon. I don’t care about your past, but from now on and into the future, I hope you are not just handsomely superficial, but truly be a man.”

Shen Yuting was not a fool. Over the time when she was with Jiang Liu, she noticed that he often took calls out of her earshot. Moreover, on her first visit to his house, she found women’s clothing.

They were all designer brands. His skills in romance were extraordinary, knowing exactly how to keep a woman satisfied and joyous.

She subtly inquired about his family, but he avoided the topic.

If his family wasn’t rich, then his good living standards without a job must mean he’s relying on a woman!

Jiang Liu remained silent as his handsome face displayed a myriad of expressions. Shen Yuting’s words seemed to have touched him. Ever since he started living off women, those women saw him for his good looks and kept him as a pet, or they had a special agenda like Cheng Jia.

Their relationship with him involved trading bodies, without any sincerity.

At first, he merely saw Shen Yuting as a plaything. She was beautiful and just so happened to be the type of woman who would fall for his looks. It would be wasteful not to pursue her.

However, as they spent the Spring Festival together, he realized Shen Yuting was not just beautiful, but she had many other qualities. Her words just now took him by surprise.

The tense atmosphere didn’t ease as a result of Shen Yuting’s statement.

On the contrary, Jiang Liu’s silence only made things more awkward. A hint of disappointment appeared in Shen Yuting’s eyes. She took a deep breath and got up, leaving him with an indifferent remark, “If you’re unwilling to change, then we should stop seeing each other.”

As she finished, she pulled out the chair and walked toward the door.

Jiang Liu’s facial expression shifted continuously as he watched Shen Yuting make her way to the door. Suddenly, he stood up. His movements were so swift that the chair behind him made a noise. He rushed over and hugged Shen Yuting from behind.

“Yuting, don’t leave.”

Her body fell against his familiar chest, and his familiar voice echoed in her ear. Shen Yuting stiffened momentarily, her heart pounding.

Jiang Liu was still torn. He held onto her tightly, as if afraid that she would leave. His lips brushed against her earlobe as he said, “Yuting, I didn’t tell you the truth before because I was afraid you would look down on me.”

Shen Yuting bit her lip, her body remaining rigid in his arms. She didn’t move or say anything.

“I was reckless in the past and didn’t hold down a serious job. But for you, I’m willing to try to change. Yuting, are you willing to give me another chance?”

Jiang Liu turned her body towards him. His eager eyes met hers. Her eyes were calm as a pond, which didn’t waver at his words and showed no sign of disgust.

An indescribable emotion surged in his heart, mixed with a hint of poignant joy. His eyes flickered as he continued to say, “I don’t have a high degree of education, but I’m willing to work for you, even if it’s dirty and tiring.”

“Really?”

Shen Yuting asked calmly.

“Mm, really.”

Jiang Liu answered seriously. Seeing her turning to leave in disappointment, an invisible hand seemed to have painfully clenched his heart, driving him instinctively to rise from his chair, chase after her, and pull her into his arms.

He didn’t want her to leave. These past couple of days spent with her had been very fulfilling, both physically and emotionally.

Shen Yuting scrutinized his sincere face while Mo Xiuchen’s cold and indifferent handsome face involuntarily flashed across her mind. She bit her lip hard and said lightly, “I hope you, keep your word.”
