Rebirth of a Village Girl-Chapter 1008 - 241: Eyesight is poor

Shangguan Xi pulled open the car door without any courtesy, "I have to go to work, just on Goldy Road."

"Got it!" Wu Chenjun sat up straight, "Fasten your seatbelt!"

Shangguan Xi quickly buckled up, "Let’s go."

Wu Chenjun turned his head to look at Shangguan Xi, "I heard from my grandma that you’ve got a boyfriend?"

"Yes," Shangguan Xi nodded, "And you’re not getting any younger. Haven’t you thought about finding a girlfriend?"

Wu Chenjun laughed with self-admiration, "Someone as outstanding as me is simply too much for the average girl!"

"Heh," Shangguan Xi said speechlessly, "After all these years, your skin seems to have gotten thicker, comparable to the corner of a city wall."

"I’m serious!" Wu Chenjun added, "Shangguan Xiaosi, I hear your family isn’t too happy with your boyfriend?"

"You know about that?!" Shangguan Xi was surprised.

Wu Chenjun kept his hands on the steering wheel, "You underestimate me. Is there anything in Sijiu City that I don’t know?"

Wu Chenjun was a smooth operator and had a way with his peers.

All he had to do was lift a finger to find out what he wanted to know.

"Starting to boast again," Shangguan Xi continued, "Actually, my boyfriend is really nice, but my family has some misunderstandings about him."

Wu Chenjun kept his eyes straight ahead, "Sometimes you can’t tell by appearances. Shangguan Xiaosi, you’ve always been a little naive. Be careful not to be deceived by people with ulterior motives."

Wu Chenjun knew Shangguan Xi all too well; she was beautiful but unfortunately not quite emotionally savvy... Otherwise, she wouldn’t have stayed single for so many years.

"That’s not going to happen," Shangguan Xi laughed, "Zuo Ling isn’t that kind of person."

"Zuo Ling?" Wu Chenjun said, "That’s your boyfriend’s name?"

"Yeah," Shangguan Xi nodded.

Wu Chenjun continued, "Elders have seen and experienced more than us. Their life experiences are more abundant. If your whole family says Zuo Ling isn’t good enough, then he might really have a problem. Shangguan Xiaosi, this is a serious matter. I hope you’ll take it seriously; it’s about being responsible to yourself, and your family as well."

Shangguan Xi was not only lacking in emotional intelligence but also very naive, easy to be deceived by men.

Shangguan Xi teased, "Tsk tsk, such grand principles. Wu Lao San, spending time abroad has changed you! It seems it’s a great opportunity to develop oneself."

The old Wu Chenjun used to be irresponsible, never this serious.

"Call me Third Brother! Show some respect!" Wu Chenjun tapped Shangguan Xi’s head and said with seriousness, "Shangguan Xiaosi, if Zuo Ling ever dares to bully you, tell me, and I’ll beat him up for you!"

Shangguan Xi looked down, fiddling with the zipper of her down jacket, "Don’t worry, that day will never come."

Zuo Ling was a gentleman; he would never do something like mistreating a woman.

It seemed that Shangguan Xi was truly in love with that Zuo Ling...

Wu Chenjun sighed softly, changing the subject, "How is your stepmother treating you?"

"What stepmother? That sounds so harsh! My mom treats me better than her own daughter!" Shangguan Xi said.

"Really?" Wu Chenjun expressed skepticism.

Shangguan Xi nodded, "Really, my mom is really good to me. Otherwise, do you think I would have come here with my dad? I’m not a three-year-old girl."

"That’s good to hear," Wu Chenjun breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon, the car arrived at Goldy Road.

Wu Chenjun, with gentlemanly grace, went around to the passenger side to open the door for Shangguan Xi.

"Thanks, Wu Lao San."

"Yo, Shangguan Xiaosi, when did you become so polite?" Wu Chenjun habitually fastened her scarf.

"Wu Lao San, haven’t you heard of not getting too close to the opposite gender?" Shangguan Xi took a step back.

Wu Chenjun’s expression stiffened for a few seconds, then returned to normal, smiling, "Shangguan Xiaosi, look at yourself, where do you even look like a woman? Still talking about not getting close to the opposite gender!"

After he finished speaking, he stepped over, hooked his arm around Shangguan Xi’s neck, and patted her head, "Talking about not getting close to the opposite gender, we knew each other back when we were still wearing split-pants. Don’t give me that nonsense!"

Shangguan Xi, being a girl, didn’t have the strength to match Wu Chenjun. Wrapped tightly in his hold, she couldn’t move an inch.
