Chapter 4

Wen Qing's silence was met with a faint nod from the aloof and distant Zhao Wanglan, who then turned to Huang Xiaowan and inquired, "Not answering my calls is just to find the next blind date?"

The fist tightened suddenly

Aunt Wang entrusted her nephew's request to Wang Lan at that time

I did not know that Miss Huang's future was actually a groundhog prince

There is a spirit called perseverance, and there is a courage that is unyielding in the face of adversity

Cheers

The delicate timbre is soft, like a few small white flowers scattered among the gentle, flowing clear stream, tender and pleasing to the ear

Many years later, when Wen Qingzhi recalls the scene of today, there remains an undeniable smile in those peach blossom eyes, the suppressed laughter has tinted her snow-white cheeks with a faint blush, radiating a captivating and enchanting allure.

Has Brother Qing figured it out this time? No longer going against the old leader?

Wang Lan spat out a mouthful of coffee

The curiosity and intrigue in the girl's eyes flutter like the scattered blossoms at the end of spring, quietly settling in the depths of her gaze.

The sound of fingertips striking the keyboard echoed in the empty room

As he rolled these three words around in his mouth, the color drained from his face, and a narrowed expression appeared in the old man's eyes: "This term is not appropriate"

Thus, in the one hundred and eight matchmaking sessions, Wang Lan introduced her to individuals who were both talented and good-looking... Those who are exceptionally talented and beautiful have always held themselves in high regard.

A bolt of lightning struck Wen Shao's forehead without warning

Wen Qing turned the car key, and when she turned around, she was startled: "Why is your face so pale?"

In terms of attitude, it is a striking and sharp move, clearly indicating: young lady, you are not well-regarded

Wen Qing happened to return just in time to hear this.

... ...

This girl has a flaw; she cannot control her mouth at any time.

Xiao Wan slowly turned her head, her calm gaze colliding with a pair of exceptionally bright eyes filled with anger

Wen Qing let out a sigh, seemingly lost in thought, and unexpectedly revealed a smile on her beautiful face, a smile that conveyed a sense of satisfaction and ease

Accompany me to the transportation bureau

Luo An'an has experienced a family bereavement; can she hold a banquet this year? What a joke

Wang Lan was very fast, and by the time he arrived at the café, Xiao Wan had just sat down for a short while

You are gentle and silent, consistent in your inner and outer self

In Wen Qingzhi's study, the heating is quite sufficient. In front of the computer desk, there is a pot of asparagus fern. Its branches are lush and its leaves are a pleasing shade of green. Wen Shao, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, has his bangs falling lightly on his smooth forehead, not obstructing his gaze. His tall and slender figure, seated in front of the computer, exudes a refined and delicate beauty.

It soon dawned on me that this leader was Wen Qingzhi's father

Here.

How many times is it

Wen Qing made a brief introduction

"What a mess, this is for the girl to find a companion, where are you letting your imagination run wild!" Without further explanation, Wen Qingzhi handed the fruits he had bought to the guard and walked directly inside with Xiao Wan

Wen Da Shao spent a considerable amount of money to invite her to accompany his younger sister

The old gentleman truly lives up to his reputation for being shrewd and calculating, as he succinctly and decisively countered with a single sentence

The guard who had just been sneaking around to gather some information promptly left to prepare the vehicle

All discussions immediately turn to smoke and dust

Little did I know, the other party was completely uninterested in this approach

Upon seeing the newcomer, Wang Lan's eyes narrowed immediately

At this moment, he suddenly realized that the logical reasoning of any normal person should never be applied to Huang Xiaowan. Her brain structure is vastly different from that of a normal person, which will make you understand what it means to be struck by "a thunderbolt from a clear sky"

Wang Lan's entire body stood up, her fists clenched tightly against the table, "It has only been a few days since that incident with Wen Qingzhi. Even if you dare to ask me to be your introducer now, I no longer have the courage to do so"

It is ! ''

This feels... too strange

Xiao Wan is very restless when drunk

Regarding beauty and skincare, Xiaowan has limited exposure. She spoke for about half an hour, revealing all her insights.

During the mourning period, not only is it inappropriate to hold banquets, but even wearing red and green is considered improper

You too, bringing all sorts of chaotic friends home. What kind of alcohol do girls drink... An'an has never drunk alcohol...

Mother Wen fell silent for a moment, then quickly compromised, waving her hand and shaking her head, saying: "Since she is this drunk, let Xiao Zhao help her to the guest room to rest first"

Tossing and turning in the room, I am unaware of the side effects of that snake wine. Having consumed it, I have not experienced any darkening of the complexion, nor have I suffered from headaches, fever, or abdominal cramps. ... I suppose I will treat it as if nothing has happened.

Similarly, no matter how much Xiaowan talks about beauty and skincare, no matter how she pretends to be noble and ostentatious, deep down, she is still a restless little flea, bouncing around without a care

Who is truly the source of the calamity

Xiao Wan indignantly said: "My mother was a teacher before she ventured into business! She truly is a teacher! Compassionate and tireless in her efforts to help others!"

As one gazes at the vast starry sky, her vision is but three inches shallow

This is ... ...

Seeing the bottle that was more than half empty and looking at the spirited young lady in front of him, he pressed his hand to his forehead, feeling the veins beneath his fingers pulsating and throbbing painfully.

He sent the person to the leader's house, then delivered them to his sister's room, and went about his own business.

Xiao Wan sat for a while but could not stay any longer

The teacher is "tireless in teaching," which is a commendable phrase

The discerning gaze swept up and down, back and forth, taking in every inch of Xiao Wan's figure. The elderly lady raised her eyebrows, gave a slight nod, and passed by her without even bothering to exchange a word.

In summary, I have set my sights on An An, and An An is destined to be my daughter-in-law, Yang Su.

After a long time, it was evident that the little bit of sustenance in her belly was clearly insufficient.

Who is it that is shouting and causing onlookers to point and speculate, making them all think that I am a heartless man

Wang Lan was puzzled when she first laid eyes on it; her eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

Xiao Wan is anxious, to sum it up in two words—eager to marry

When one is thirsty, simply drink water

Snap

Wen Qing took the wine bottle and, upon seeing the small azure snake floating inside, couldn't help but gasp in shock. She looked up and shouted, "Huang Xiaowan, what kind of wine are you daring to drink? Aren't you afraid of drinking yourself to death!"

The snow-white A4 paper made a "whoosh" sound as she pointed at it

Xiao Wan was unconvinced and calmly said: "Taking care of oneself is one thing, but being cared for by others is another... Look, I think this one is good. This one, called Wang Dafu."

The old maid closed her eyes, her face pale, deeply reflecting on the major illegal activities she had committed over the past week. Counting them one by one, the most serious offense was that she had been dragged by a colleague to run a red light.

As you got closer, you could see that this girl was so drunk that she couldn't even open her eyes, treating the teddy bear as if it were a girl, and still had the audacity to mumble complaints there.

... ...

There are no issues to be found in terms of etiquette

Wen Qing's lips twitched violently

Since the last time Xiaowan aggressively informed him that Wen Qingzhi had a girlfriend, Xiaowan had not felt anything, but Wang Lan experienced a strong sense of humiliation from being deceived. It was precisely because of Wen Qingzhi's typical act of deception this time that Wang Lan felt she had lost face tremendously in front of her friend.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps "tap tap tap" came from outside the door. Mother Wen rushed over and, upon seeing Xiao Wan sprawled on the table, completely drunk, her eyes clearly displayed disdain and disgust: "What is this? How could you drink so much? Qingzhi, what is wrong with your friend..."

Everyone is from the same family, so naturally, we must pay extra attention. I initially thought that Aunt Wang's nephew was of average quality, but upon reviewing the materials, even someone as well-informed as Wang Lan couldn't help but whistle loudly: Wow, you can't even find such a gem with a lantern.

Xiao Wan hurriedly put on a smile and called out in a crisp voice

However, Xiaowan was completely absorbed in her own "tragic" student life and did not notice at all that the girl had actually taken the initiative to ask questions.

I think you really know how to take care of yourself Wang Lan pinched her swollen temples and couldn't help but complain

Sitting in Wenqing's car, Xiaowan once lost her temper and reason, disregarding her own safety, upholding the fearless spirit of "If heaven does not act, the master will act on your behalf." In the darkness, she absurdly imagined countless terrifying accidents such as "a tire blowout," "a meteor falling from the sky," "driving against traffic," and "plummeting off a cliff"

The door was opened by a handsome security guard, who, upon seeing Wen Qingzhi returning home with a fair and charming young lady, was momentarily taken aback.

This statement is remarkable

Seeing her composed and unyielding reaction, the old gentleman felt increasingly satisfied, thinking to himself that this girl is solid, has a good foundation, and is neither arrogant nor impatient, which makes her quite pleasing to the eye

The girl's room is arranged in a refreshing manner, with a light green tone that is tidy and pleasant. The girl sits quietly by the window, as soft light, delicate as fragments of thin gold, falls upon her forehead, which is as smooth as snow

Xiao Wan was in a drunken stupor, and when one is drunk, the words become even more nonsensical: "Actually, when I was a young girl, I really couldn't understand why a tender young beauty would choose a middle-aged woman..."

In fact, although Xiaowan is twenty-five years old this year, she does not possess the striking beauty that emanates from within like Luo An'an, who is exquisite to the core. However, her face is round and delicate, and her skin is dewy, making her appear much younger than her actual age, completely devoid of any trace of being "desperate to marry yet unsuccessful".

After letting out a loud belch, Xiao Wan expressed her sorrow and continued, "My mother has long said that when I drink, I become bold and talkative. Is this a military district? ... I have always been most afraid of soldiers since I was young. You just tossed me into the military compound without a second thought. Just thinking about how there are soldiers outside, and they might even be armed with real guns... my legs go weak..."

One's mind is open, casting aside the longings of love for their children; she thinks and thinks...

Wen Qing suddenly fell silent

The old man’s expression turned serious, and his sharp gaze swept over Wen Qingzhi. Although he did not say much, a tremendous sense of pressure arose.

In the slightly puzzled gaze of the girl, Xiao Wan lamented as she pounded the ground: "Destruction, devastation, ruin! A bunch of elites are waiting for your favor, stop dreaming! If you don't seize the opportunity to find a young boy while in school, by the time you graduate, all the elites will be taken. Even if you sharpen your wits, you won't be able to wield a hoe to dig at the corners..."

I must say, I have seen irresponsible drivers, but I have never encountered someone as irresponsible as Wen Qing. I do not know whether he is simply too careless or if he is overly trusting of Xiao Wan—after all, despite Xiao Wan's lively and humorous personality, she is merely an acquaintance of Niu Er, having met only once.

Indeed, the cold wind outside is biting

As her gaze shifted to the photo section, Wang Lan's brows furrowed even more: "This appearance..."

The ominous feeling in Wen Qing's heart grew stronger, and she thought to herself, could it be that something truly happened after drinking the snake wine

Nonsensical ideas

Xiao Wan shrugged indifferently and calmly said: "As one grows older, it is only natural to make more plans for the future of one's later years"

Wen Qing ultimately could not set her mind at ease, so she took a few steps out of the room, poured herself a cup of warm water, and headed towards the guest room

After a long while, I finally took a deep breath, silently gripping the paper cup, and drank all the warm water inside.

If we continue to discuss this, her inherent laziness, boredom, lowbrow tastes, and irresponsible shamelessness will all make a grand entrance in a pompous manner

Dear girl, come and help me settle this... *burp*! Your brother said to find me to keep you company, and he was right about your sister Xiaowan's carefree and humorous talent. But just look at this, what does it mean to be true to one's name and consistent inside and out? Your sister Xiaowan is just a delicate and soft white lotus, how could she possibly resemble a female superhero?

At the age of nearly thirty, I can't even see a single strand of hair from a partner.

Wang Lan is a straightforward person, and her thoughts are quite simple

The young man's beautifully painted ink-black eyebrows raised in a noncommittal manner, and he couldn't help but reveal a hint of amusement at a phrase he occasionally heard

What can be seen

Xiao Wan was quite tipsy and in a daze. With a wave of her large hand, she opened her arms and continued, "Did you see it or not?"

Drink it all in one go

Seeing this, Mother Wen was still going to continue her scolding

Xiao Wan leisurely held her coffee cup, savoring a sip, gazing into the distance with a sense of profound reflection: "The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard..."

Of course, that is a matter for another time; let us set it aside for now

She murmured a phrase.

A stone thrown into the water can still splash out some droplets, but even if you throw a girl into the water...

Comrade Xiaowan prides herself on not being superficial, and she will not refuse to marry someone simply because they do not possess an attractive appearance, nor will she hastily dismiss someone based on an ordinary look. However, you must understand that marriage is a matter between two individuals, and the time spent together is a lifetime commitment.

I do not feel particularly frustrated by being ignored

Are you not finished yet

However, without waiting for him to say much, a woman's voice could be heard from a distance, rising in a strange and peculiar tone: "Stop meddling with the red thread and messing with the mandarin ducks; my son's marriage is not for you to dictate. Our old Wen family cannot hold a wedding banquet this year... Even if we could, it would be for Qing and An'an's wedding..."

The military district commander patted Xiaowan's shoulder in a manner akin to a commendation

Currently, Xiao Wan is still under the cruel exploitation and oppression of Wen Eshao, while the revolution remains in the depths of suffering and turmoil. Wen Eshao's sister is still waiting for the cheerful and humorous Earth Superman to come to her rescue

But you must understand that even if a parrot can speak human language, it is still just a bird

This is my mother

Immediately, a simple appearance became grotesque and difficult to describe

It was merely a matter of handling some project funding issues, not a significant matter at all. However, today, Young Master Wen found it quite difficult to concentrate. The computer screen flickered with various data and information, and as soon as he closed his eyes, a delicate face with a tipsy expression immediately flashed into his mind

Given Wenqing's extravagant style of doing things, Xiaowan believes that Luo An'an's current benefactor should be a wealthy second-generation individual. Just like the depictions found in the plethora of online stories featuring naive CEOs, themes such as deep and painful love, transactional relationships, and contractual lovers should all be somewhat relevant to their situation, infused with a touch of drama.

Wen Qing jokingly said: "My mom is just an ordinary housewife. You see my dad, he doesn't lose his composure at all. But the moment he sees my mom, he stands at attention, as if he should have 'I am not nervous' written on his forehead!"

Huang Xiaowan, I did not say that you are a disaster, yet you have the audacity to accuse me to my face

Mother Wen shot a glare at her son and called on the guard, Xiao Zhao, to help carry the person.

Just watching this charming and pleasing young woman slam her hand on the table, her eyes gleaming with ferocity, she exclaimed: "Now that I am an old woman, I finally understand what they are all thinking!"

Unfortunately, the girl is just a stone

Gently knocked on the guest room door

Xiao Wan held the wine bottle, tilting her head in confusion as she looked at him, her small eyes sparkling brightly as if she had stepped out of a painting

What is there to be afraid of? I, Huang Xiaowan, and he, Wang Dafu, are perfectly matched like a couplet created by heaven and earth. With such a well-matched pair of names, you wouldn't find a second one even if you searched with a lantern!

He remembers... she seems to be about two years younger than him

Halfway down, the old master of the Wen family hurriedly buttoned his stand-up collar and went down, "Xiao Zhang!"

Before she could bite her tongue and change her words, the old man cheerfully remarked: "Wen Qing can only be a villain at most, how could he possibly be a young scoundrel?"

She thought she was already ruthless enough, but little did she expect that the old man's sharp tongue was still as formidable as ever. Even his own son could be subjected to such ridicule; truly, he is worthy of being a leader in the military district

She really has the audacity to treat someone else's delicate and beautiful sister as a trash can for emotional venting, incessantly talking about her own tragic experiences in love and arranged dating.

All dissent shall be nipped in the bud; all discontent shall be reduced to dust.

It is not surprising that she is timid

The guard, Xiao Zhao, who was helping to tidy up the room, happened to witness this scene and could not help but ask, "Didn’t Brother Qing say he would give Miss Huang some water to sober her up? Why is he drinking it himself?"

Earlier, Wen Qing once said a word to Xiao Wan

Wen Qing roughly handed the warm water to her, continuing to support her aching forehead—what kind of muscle had he pulled, to bring this trouble home. This snake wine had never been consumed by anyone; who knew what could happen if one drank it. Huang Xiaowan truly had an audacious spirit, daring to put anything in her mouth regardless of whether it was poisonous or not

Upon hearing these three words, the expression on Old Master Wen's face immediately became remarkable

The force was so great that half of Xiao Wan's shoulder went numb from the sting, yet she dared not show even the slightest expression on her face

However, when Wen Qing drove steadily into the military district compound and parked in a lot filled with vibrant green military vehicles, Xiao Wan rubbed her stiff face vigorously, suddenly feeling a sense of helplessness akin to a bolt from the blue

Thus, after feeling guilty for a long time, the introducer Wang Lan suddenly received a call from Xiao Wan, and his face instantly resembled a dye house that had spilled paint, with a pleasing mix of red and white

Who is it ... ? ... coming home, doing nothing at all, and without any hesitation, first drinks a bottle of snake wine ?

Generally, lacking cultural depth yet pretending to be knowledgeable and making grandiose statements, we can summarize the content of their conversations in two words. That is—"nonsense"

This young master is truly at ease

There is no sound inside

Xiao Wan was taken aback

Who is late and making excuses while wearing a cumbersome teddy bear costume on the street

The girl pressed her soft lips together, her butterfly-like fluttering eyelashes gently blinking

Who referred to their blind date as a "dead rat"

Recalling the little soldier's knife-like gaze at the "Visitor Registration" at the entrance, Xiaowan's steps became increasingly unsteady. After thinking for a long time, she still could not figure out what kind of punishment one would face for running a red light

For our comrade Xiaowan, one hundred and eight failed matchmaking attempts do not signify an end, and not encountering a suitable marriage partner of the right age and social standing is not a descent into a painful abyss. What is truly terrifying is the loss of confidence in life and marriage due to the failures in matchmaking and the absence of love, and this is the truly unforgivable matter

Someone who should have been quietly lying in bed sleeping is now leaning over there, unsteadily holding onto a teddy bear as tall as a person, chattering about something incessantly

Your years of ironclad friendship were almost ruined for the sake of a good brother, and although the introducer did not speak out for the sake of face, they truly felt guilty in their heart

Wen Qing was momentarily stunned

The old man misunderstood

Xiao Wan immediately felt a strange sensation reminiscent of a military parade during university training, her back straightened abruptly. She quickly replied: "Hello, Chief, my name is Huang Xiao Wan, and I am the labor subject exploited by the infamous Wen."

Mom

Why does it seem that Sister Xiaowan's tone implies something that is not as taken for granted as it appears

"What room to send? Just leave it at the door, let a gust of cold wind in, and the wine will wake up." Coldly glancing at Xiao Wan, Wen Shao said with a chilling tone, uttering this malicious remark.

Descending the escalator was a woman with graying hair at her temples, a round face, and features that were almost plain in their correctness. She appeared no different from the aunt next door, who had spent years arguing with others over a few cents in vegetable prices, her face flushed and neck thick.

Are you still the delicate and soft white lotus flower

Silence

Xiao Wan has at least reaped the "lucrative" benefits here with Wen Shao, while Wang Lan is filled with grievances and frustration that she cannot express in front of Wen Shao

However, the idea is wonderful, but the outcome is tragic

He is also anxious himself

Xiao Wan's eyes widened, and she replied calmly: "Whether I am nervous or not is none of your concern. Tonight, you will sleep in the study!"

Miss Huang is accustomed to blind dates on weekends

Wen Qing has never thought that anyone would drink this bottle of wine

Comrade Xiaowan took a sip of liquor and sighed about life

It is evident that Xiaowan has always been ruthless

The gaze swept over that photograph, and the pupils tightened momentarily before quickly returning to normal. Calmly, he said: "This is called safety. In the future, when he is out for dinner or singing karaoke, we won't have to follow along and conduct surveillance; two words: worry-free"

Do not be fooled by the arrogant and domineering young master Wen, who appears to be a big shot all day long; at this moment, he is obediently wagging his tail like a Pekingese.

As soon as he entered, the strong smell of alcohol made him furrow his brows tightly

Wen Qing's ink-black, picturesque eyebrows slightly furrowed

The man in the photograph has well-defined features, a dark and unpretentious appearance, yet he is marred by a peculiar black mole on his upper lip. If it were just a mole, it would be one thing, but there is also a tuft of hair growing from it

Xiao Wan engaged in an interesting discussion about the principles of beauty care for a while

Unable to compete, simply drive people away

to ! ''

One could see Huang Xiaowan earnestly praising the name, appearance, and family background of "Wang Dafu". For some reason, Wen Qing felt a bit unhappy in her heart.

Sometimes, excessive肥水 can lead to the drowning of a large area instead of nurturing the crops

A moment of speechless silence

At first, she could still chat with you about beauty care, weight loss, health, and cosmetics... topics that most girls would be interested in

You said that when I was in school, teachers and parents did not allow...

He clutched a crisp A4 sheet of white paper, a delicate smile gracing his lips, and continued in a harmonious tone: "The amount of salary is often proportional to the level of responsibility; you get what you give. Moreover, one's work attitude often reflects their attitude towards life. Given Miss Huang's negligence towards her work, I seem to understand why you have been on one hundred and eight blind dates, only to face defeat each time. Surely, your blind date partners must have seen your unreliability in everything, which is why they have repeatedly rejected you... Given Miss Huang's negligence towards her work, I seem to understand why you have been on one hundred and eight blind dates, only to face defeat each time. Surely, your blind date partners must have seen your unreliability in everything, which is why they have repeatedly rejected you..."

Do you drink alcohol

After a pause, Wen Qing seemed to feel that this approach could not completely suppress the stubborn element that was causing him both mental and physical distress.

Ah, one cannot speak like that

The hardships and setbacks that Xiaowan experienced during this period are undoubtedly imaginable

Nonsense! What a ridiculous effort!

Wang Lan's voice suddenly turned cold: "What are you doing here?"

Until she stood outside the parking lot, breathing in the military district's green air, she still felt somewhat unsteady on her feet

The old maiden, with a spirit that could swallow mountains and seas, recounted in a grand manner the original words of Mother Huang from years ago

At that moment, the documents in Xiaowan's hand were gently pulled away from behind her. Immediately after, a clear voice forcefully interjected, breaking the ice.

I thought Wen Qing had exhausted the rich second generation, but he has suddenly transformed into a government official's second generation!

Clearing her throat twice, she adjusted her voice and, mimicking Huang Ma's tone, sharply remarked: "Young girls! What are you talking about love for at such a young age, just starting middle school? Even if you were to choose, they would be nothing but wilted yellow flowers! Wait until you go to university, graduate, and step into society; there will be plenty of elites waiting for your favor..."

Friendship has been destroyed by the "bed"

To understand why Xiaowan originally chose her matchmaking partner, one must first look at the name. According to her, the quality of a name can reveal a person's family background. A family of intellectuals would not give their child a crude name like "Damao" or "Ergou"; whereas, a wealthy family would not choose names that lack refinement, such as "Fu" or "Gui".

As this back-and-forth continued, the main character remained single, while the few unintentional green willows began to sway with their delicate leaves and soft branches

I am not afraid of your nonsense, but I fear there is no nonsense to be spoken

After all the rambling, it turns out to be "arranged marriage and raising children, supporting one's husband and educating the children"

Uh, thank you. Taking the water, Xiaowan quietly expressed her gratitude

Wretched young master

Xiao Wan stood up straight, respectfully watching the old lady leave. Once she could no longer see her figure, she let out a small sigh and couldn't help but exclaim: Fortunately, I did not have any further contact or understanding with that wicked person Wen, and it would never develop to the point of discussing marriage. Otherwise, having such a mother-in-law would leave me either dead or severely injured

Although he did not follow the typical path of military families, such as attending a military academy and graduating directly as an officer, Wen Qingzhi's current position and capabilities in a foreign enterprise perfectly demonstrate that he is a talent who does not rely on his family background

It seems that she is now like an old woman

Hello, aunt!

Xiaowan's jaw nearly dropped in shock

Xiao Wan, with great effort, steadied herself and unsteadily got off the bike while holding onto the handlebars

If she, Huang Xiaowan, has become an old woman, then what am I

Upon contemplating this possibility, the young man's face turned pale, and without further ado, he turned the doorknob. The yellow wooden door slid open silently with a "click" sound.

He truly intends to throw people out

But now

What are you doing, girl

In my mind, it feels as if a string has been violently snapped.

Upon hearing his evaluation of Wang Dafu, Xiao Wan's face clearly flashed with displeasure: "The one who is supposed to spend a lifetime with him does not seem to be you, Young Master Wen. Regardless of whether he looks like a groundhog or even a Tyrannosaurus rex, it has nothing to do with your Young Master Wen. Unless..." In response to Wen Qing's puzzled gaze, Xiao Wan said earnestly: "Young Master Wen is in love with a man."

Suddenly, the girl who had been silent raised her head and said softly: "I am curious about the taste of snake wine... Xiao Wan said... help me try it."

Wen Qing's complexion suddenly turned pale.

Thus, when such a delicate and charming little girl, with her porcelain-white face, somehow managed to procure a bottle of white liquor, holding the little girl's hand with a forlorn expression, and maturely lamenting, "Niu'er, why can't your sister Xiaowan get married?" it created a rather incongruous sense of humor.

One is of refined taste, while the other is of popular appeal

Wen Qing handed him the empty cup of water and said lightly: "The white lotus does not need to drink water"

This girl is quite composed, leisurely sipping her coffee while casually taking out some spare materials from her small handbag: "Although the last one was indeed quite terrible, I may have suffered in love, but financially, I am still doing well." After savoring another sip of coffee, Xiaowan said proudly: "That contract worth 12,000 per paper, after a few years of work, will be enough for a wedding house, and who knows, I might even be able to support a young lover. As the saying goes, when one is well-fed and warm, desires arise. All our classmates are either getting married or having children... Even you, just two months ago, were happily enjoying your honeymoon. Can you bear to see your closest buddy still alone and unloved?"

Why is there such a strong smell of alcohol

Huang Xiaowan's complexion seemed... unnaturally red

Xiao Wan said softly: "This person is twenty-eight years old, two years older than me, and our ages are comparable. He works in technology, so one can imagine he won't have too many tricks up his sleeve. He has a rural household registration, owns a house but no car... In fact, it doesn't matter whether one is rich or poor. After getting married, as long as one has the ability, money can still be earned gradually. As long as one does not pursue unrealistic luxurious enjoyment, life can still be lived well."

I sat drowsily the entire way; not to mention any accidents, the ride was so smooth that there wasn't even a bump.

Hmm, are you sunbathing? It's quite good. Girls should spend more time in the sun. Don't listen to what variety shows say about the thirty-six strategies for whitening; sun protection is key. If you stay cooped up and don't see a bit of sunlight, what you end up with is pallor, looking like a vampire, which is not healthy at all

It is said that Wen Qing's involvement within the scope of his introduction is purely at the request of Aunt Wang, the director of the pediatrics department at their hospital

Mother, do not concern yourself with it. This is the way of Wen Qing.

The girl that Wen Eren brought home this time is quite good, standing firmly in military posture. Develop well, the old man is waiting to celebrate your wedding.

Xiao Wan's dark eyes were silent, her thin lips pressed tightly together to the point of appearing slightly pale

"Miss Huang, I called you twelve times, why didn't you answer?" This is clearly an impolite accusation, yet the beautiful tone adds a touch of allure, vividly enchanting, causing a tremor in one's heart

In line with the principle of keeping benefits within one's own circle, Wang Lan introduced Huang Xiaowan without a second thought

Suddenly, Xiao Wan felt a surge in her scalp

Inside the guest room, the quilt has been ravaged into a miserable heap

The young man's thin, soft lips were pressed tightly into a straight line, and even the fists at the sleeves could not help but clench tightly... Anyone could see that a storm was brewing in the depths of those dark, bright eyes

The first meeting with Mother Wen

Xiao Wan greeted, but the girl remained silent, as quiet as before

Who is so foolish as to be unable to distinguish that they have appendicitis

He was taken aback, and the materials clenched in his palm suddenly tightened, the thin A4 paper making a "crackling" sound.

However, he could no longer smile.

The girl's eyes sparkled for a moment, a hint of laughter flickering in the depths of her gaze.

Far in the distance, the old maid's thoughts drifted back ten years, and she lamented: "Do you know what my mother said to me back then?"

It was the first time she had heard an unmarried young woman describe herself in such a manner, and Wen Qing's face turned dark.

In a state of confusion, I burp from drinking alcohol

Although it is quite cruel to shatter an old maid's matchmaking schemes, I must remind Miss Huang that according to the contract we signed last week, your weekends are considered working hours. Unless there are natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, or volcanic eruptions, you have no justification for being absent. Furthermore, your mobile phone must be on standby twenty-four hours a day. By refusing to answer calls as you did today, I have every reason to deduct your salary.

What peace and tranquility are you talking about? You are the only one speaking, whether with your mouth open or closed. If I disagree for even a day, she, Luo An'an, can forget about entering the Wen family's door.

During that time, everyone liked to come over cheerfully and get close to him, saying things like, "Xiao Wang, look at how my daughter is doing," or "Xiao Wang, look at how my son is doing"

What she described as a gentle breeze and light clouds made Wang Lan feel a sense of trepidation and fear

This "auntie" ... ...

Wen Qing entered the room with a sullen expression on her face

You must be mistaken... have you taken the wrong medicine

This girl is dry in the mouth, yet she complains that her tongue is not dry enough, and she continues to chatter on with spirit: "Wen Qingzhi, you are nothing but a disaster."

Xiao Wan greeted her, and the girl silently glanced at her before shifting her gaze away

Thus, I followed Wen Shao in a somewhat muddled manner and entered the house

In fact, Mother Wen also drinks alcohol, but since she has found Xiao Wan's weakness, she will naturally amplify it infinitely and attack relentlessly

He and Xiaowan have been close since high school, fully aware of each other's family backgrounds, and their familiarity is akin to that of two brothers, ensuring that no third type of relationship beyond familial or platonic love could ever arise. He believed that this kind of close friendship could last a lifetime, but who would have thought that disaster would strike, and their friendship would be disrupted by "scum"!

At that time, Wang Lan was constantly looking for a partner for Xiao Wan. Having done this repeatedly, he was naturally holding a pile of profiles of single men, which attracted attention. From the hospital director to the elderly man at the gate, everyone believed that Wang Lan was a heavenly matchmaker, dedicated to helping lovesick individuals bid farewell to their single status, effectively becoming a representative of the human world for an entire month.

Then, after blinking once, I still feel thirsty

It appears that even a single character or two can lead to insights that could fill an entire book on naming conventions

Truly a master of the school debate competition, your thinking perspective is indeed broad and divergent, leaving one in awe

Old women

After looking at the name, observe the appearance

Under normal circumstances, Wen Qing would never be so sharp and rude

The resentment of Wen Qing

Anyone who hears an outsider discussing the length and breadth of their son in front of them, any parent would likely not have a pleasant expression

The reticent little princess of the Wen family has spoken

A string has been tightened

She smiled brightly as she pushed the bottle of wine in front of Wen Qing.

Despite her usually loud and assertive demeanor, this girl has always felt her legs go weak at the sight of a soldier since childhood

I have never heard that one must turn oneself in for running a red light

The amount of salary is often proportional to the degree of responsibility; one receives in accordance with what one contributes. Moreover, one's work attitude often reflects one's attitude towards life

Since the last troublesome incident involving Wen Qing, the introducer has been avoiding Xiao Wan whenever they meet

Are you done yet? Aren't you supposed to go to the traffic bureau? Why aren't you leaving!

This is Xiaowan's first visit to the home of the military district leader

For a moment, the room was eerily quiet, and even the sound of a falling needle could be distinctly heard

If one were to find a partner with a crooked eye and a slanted brow, waking up in fright for thirty seconds every day, who could possibly endure that

At first, making snake wine was simply a matter of having nothing to do

Before she could be overwhelmed with emotions and express her feelings, Old Master Wen raised his eyes and saw his son returning home with a girl

After ordering the coffee, Xiao Wan said nothing more, and two lightweight sheets of white paper were silently pushed under Wang Lan's eyes.

Isn't it just a bottle of wine!

What does it have to do with you?

This snake is not large, shimmering with a crystalline luster, immersed in amber-colored medicinal liquor, exuding an air of profound melancholy

Although his main purpose in saying this was to provoke Xiao Wan, he was not entirely wrong in what he said

Yes. It can splash water and can also cause fatalities

What about Wenqing?

Wang Lan glanced over and frowned, "Wang Dafu? Don't you find that name clichéd?"
