Chapter 1602: Chapter 1599 Xiao Lin, Chun Xiang
“There was this guy, you know, who was getting handsy, and I ran into him and helped Guihua out once. After seeing each other a few times, hehe, Guihua said she’d be willing to marry me.”
Lu Chuan listened intently, almost ready to take notes: “So what you mean is, you need to play the hero and solve her problems, and then she’ll be willing to marry you, right?”
“Something like that.” The tall guy scratched his head. He couldn’t really explain why Guihua wanted to marry him either. Anyway, Guihua seemed happy to see him, and he was willing to protect her, give her a good life, and didn’t want to see her bullied by others.
The only one who could bully her was him.
“What about you, Xiao Lin?” Lu Chuan nodded and turned to the refined young man.
The refined young man was a bit puzzled: “Chuan, why are you asking this?”
Lu Chuan patted his head, coughed lightly, hiding the nervousness in his eyes, “Just tell me, it’s to learn, you know, to help the brothers get some insights.”
The refined young man wasn’t sure if he was being serious, but he didn’t bother to analyze it. Just thinking of Chun Xiang made him uncontrollably happy, warming his heart.
“Chun Xiang is quite outgoing. Although she seems a bit fierce, I know she likes me. Otherwise, she wouldn’t take care of everything for me. She even washes my shoes and socks. Though she complains about me not being able to wash them myself, she still manages everything for me.”
“But Chun Xiang is too strong-willed, handling business by herself. I worry she’ll be bullied, and whenever I have time, I can’t help but check on her. Even though she’s tough, she’s still a woman. Even if I’m just standing beside her, those who want to bully her have to think twice.”
The more Lu Chuan listened, the faster his heart raced, especially since he felt Chun Xiang’s personality was quite similar to Su Mei’s.
It seems Su Mei is also strong-willed and capable. I heard that the maidservants at the residence don’t dare offend her, saying she works rigorously, and anyone who falls into her hands will surely be noted.
But Lu Chuan didn’t think Su Mei was strict. That’s just the lady’s requirements. As long as one does their job well, Su Mei won’t interfere. It’s only those who want to slack off and aren’t upright who find her difficult.
He knew Su Mei was meticulous and independent, but he still wanted to protect her.
“When Chun Xiang gets fierce with you, don’t you worry she might get mad if you stick around?” Lu Chuan asked the soul-searching question.
The refined young man chuckled and waved his hand, “Brother Lu, obviously you don’t have a sweetheart. If Chun Xiang really disliked me, she would’ve shut me out ages ago, treating me like a flirt. Why would she say so much? You see, there are other men who want to approach her, but she decisively refuses them, and then they never come around again. I’m the only one who persisted, so Chun Xiang does fancy me; that’s why I get to stay.”
“Yes, if a woman truly dislikes someone, after several instances, she’d definitely report to the authorities.” The tall guy chimed in, showing agreement.
Lu Chuan’s eyes brightened, stammering, “Really? I won’t be hated?”
“Brother Lu, what’s there to worry about? Relax, even if you shamelessly stick around, it depends on whether she gives you a chance. If she doesn’t, no matter how thick-skinned you are, it’s useless.”
“If she really doesn’t like you, getting on her nerves still leads to the same outcome.” The tall guy didn’t quite understand what was contradictory about these two points, clearly lacking emotional intelligence.
