Ah Jun genuinely felt free and comfortable with the teachers carefree attitude and the girls straightforwardness... He nodded and earnestly agreed to the teachers request -- As for joining the reunion dinner, Ah Jun naturally welcomed it. It should be said that his family warmly welcomed the sweet girl, as they were already part of their own family.
" come on !"
"You... wait!"
Just as Xiao Tiantian was pulling Ah Jun to go shopping, the uncle suddenly came over and grabbed the girl. Then he turned around and whispered, "You child, how can you pull and tug in public -- Dont affect the reputation of your senior brother!"
"What does it matter? Ah Jun is my future boyfriend!"
"You think its a game of house... You really believe that when you were a kid!"
"I dont care. Anyway, I told Ah Jun that I want to be his girlfriend when I grow up -- right?"
The father and daughter were quarreling with each other, and the voices were getting louder and louder. -- Ah Jun had heard a general idea long ago. When the girl turned her head to ask, he suddenly understood, but he was a little at a loss, so he just stood there smiling at his teacher.
"Ouch, girl... Well, you are still young, you cant fall in love too early, you should focus on study, okay -- You... if you dont behave, I wont give you pocket money!"
Seeing that the sweet girl was unmoved, the uncle looked at the embarrassed student across the street and pretended to scold his daughter.
"Ouch, Dad -- Hmph, you always use this trick to scare me. Ill ask my mother for... Mom, your daughter is being bullied and your husband has lost all the money..."
"Shh!"
However, the girl did not care about any threat, she just opened her eyes, responded, and then the boss gave in.
"Vivie, there are a lot of new products in the restaurant recently. There are shrimp sliding pan-fried buns with bottom caramel, soft outside and full of fresh meat juice inside. Let me take you to try them!"
"Um, yes, right. Wheres Sister Laner..."?
Seeing this, in order to ease the situation, Ah Jun stood by and gave a good suggestion -- So, Xiao Tianmei turned around, immediately smiled on her face, ran to Ah Juns side, and took a date with her future boyfriend.
Ah Jun merely smiled at the teacher before indulging his sweet girl. He couldnt resist such a wonderful young woman, though he maintained the gentlemanly demeanor expected of family members... Not only that, but Ah Jun politely bid farewell to his teacher before turning away, subtly reminding the girl about proper etiquette. The girls attentive compliance even made the father standing nearby feel a twinge of jealousy.
--Oh, this girl! What a splash of water shes thrown out-she hasnt even married yet! Silly child, Xiao Jun is a good kid, but you two just arent meant to be together. You have no idea what hes carrying on his shoulders. Why get involved in such nonsense? All I want is for you to live a normal life, happy and peaceful... Besides, he treats you like his own sister. Are you still in your senses? Xiao Juns not just saying it-his heart aches for your happiness...
"Hey! Alright, I really like it. Keep up the good work -- Xiao Jun, being my son-in-law sounds pretty cool, right? -- Hey, kids mom, oh, your daughter ran off with a guy... Yeah, I know, it must be to find a son-in-law. That way, well finally get the Zhuge familys mechanical arts, ha..."."
So at noon that day, Ah Jun did not go home for lunch, but walked and chatted with Xiao Tianmei, the two of them had endless topics to talk about.
Of course, Ah Jun was still a bit worried. After all, he used to play mostly around the yard or near his home. But today, it seemed a bit too conspicuous-would this affect her? -- However, he was overthinking. The children passed by without anyone daring to call her "Little Sweet Girl," not even one who dared to act up with Ah Jun. Thus, there remained only harmony.
After all, everyone knows how powerful this girls family is-its almost on par with the Dongfangs. Of course, occasionally Ah Jun would catch a whiff of others suspicions about him, like comparing flowers to cow dung, or toads to swans...
"Ajun, I want this!"
"Um!"
"This is really nice..."
" buy !"
"Brother Jun, do you remember this -- When I was a child, whenever I was unhappy, you would buy this for me to eat..."
"Of course I remember -- our special traditional snacks, your favorite!"
"Ha ha! It smells so good, its the same old taste, soft and sweet, with delicious red beans inside. Its best when its hot -- Hmm? Why dont you eat one?"
"I... I have too much. If I eat it, its a waste. You can eat it."
"Well, the old way -- Well... let me give you a taste."
"Um... Im not fit for this?"
"Whats not suitable? I wouldnt be happy if it were someone else -- Oh, take a bite... Come on!"
"Ah!"
"Ah, the little restaurant, still the same as before -- How come we got here so soon? Hmm, why didnt Sister Lan come today? Shes on holiday!"
"Hmm? Maybe its busy studying, maybe its an invitation from a good friend at the new school. I think pudding asked me to go last time... Lets go!"
"Well! Why dont you go-- But isnt she your best friend..."
Xiao Xiumeis question made Ah Jun touch his head and smile awkwardly, trying to conceal his thoughts. -- In fact, he wanted to see Laner now, but for some reason, he felt that the two of them were getting strange to each other in the past two years.
"Hi! Thats good. I can play with you now -- Like me, Id better not. Besides, if the symptoms occur later, it will be a laughing matter for them and theyll lose face!"
"How could that be? Who would dare laugh at you, a man so good..."
"-- groan !"
Suddenly, Ah Jun heard a noise in front of them. Then he saw two boys standing in front of them. One of them snorted angrily, while the other went straight to Ah Jun with a smile.
-- Oh! It was them. The one who made the noise was Young Master Orange, who was quite depressed. As for the one running to Ah Jun, it was none other than his regular subordinate, nicknamed Bao Gu.
The child approached with a beaming smile, naturally initiating conversation with the enemy. To Ah Jun, this seemed perfectly normal-they were now friends. Yet Young Master Cheng remained unchanged: his face twisted with hatred whenever he saw Ah Jun, and his displeasure grew even more pronounced upon noticing the subordinates demeanor. But todays level of resentment seemed rather excessive.
"Hey! What are you humming? Trying to bully our handsome brother again!"
"Hum! You little brat, to find a girl to support you, what a coward!"
"What are you saying, you!"
However, Xiao Tangmei naturally couldnt stand Cheng Shaos unreasonable attitude. As always, she stood firmly before Ah Jun, head held high and eyes glaring, determined to uphold justice for her friend. This time, Bao Gu was torn between sides but remained rooted to the spot. After seeing this, Cheng Shao grew increasingly frustrated, yet he couldnt help stuttering when facing the girl before him.
"I -- you..."
"What am I, I!"
"You -- us!"
Gradually, Orange became less and less able to speak, and his fighting ability was instantly destroyed. He did not want to continue to entangle himself -- After all, he and the little sweet girl had known each other since childhood. Although the two families were not on good terms, they were still friends in public.
In the past, whenever Xiao Tianmei appeared, Cheng Shao would instantly turn from tiger to cat - even he couldnt explain why, though their relationship remained functional. But after Ah Juns rampage incident, when Xiao Tianmei discovered Cheng Shao was the real mastermind behind it all, she became furious. She went to great lengths to confront him and gave this spoiled heir a stern lecture. Following this, Cheng Shao grew even more resentful towards Ah Jun, proving that when girls appeared, he instantly turned into a mouse meeting a cat.
Chen Shao waved his hand and called for a brother. Thirty-six strategies, away! But Bao Guan was in a bit of a dilemma. He really wanted to join Ah Jun and his team to experience the new product, but now the relationship was complicated.
"Boss, Im hungry!"
"You -- Ill take you to a big meal!"
"Um... can I follow them?"
"Still stubborn, you!"
"Boss, why dont you join us? Theyre treating us!"
I... Go!"
Bao Guanzhou looked left and right, unwilling to let go of his grievance -- The young mans face turned blue. He had no choice but to glare and clench his fists to show his sovereignty, then he left angrily with his unambitious brother.
"Hmph -- Lets go, Ah Jun, hehe!"
"Um!"
