Chapter 513: A Woman Who Couldn ‘t Get Things Done
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Sister Xia, what are you thinking about?” Chen Shui patted Xia Wan’s hand.
“My dad is talking to you.”
Only then did Xia Wan realize that she had been so lost in thought that she hadn’t heard Chen Shan calling her name. “Uncle Chen, what did you just say?”
“Wanwan, today’s meal is partly because it’s been a while since I’ve seen you and that rascal, so I arranged this family banquet,” Chen Shan said with a loving expression, not minding Xia Wan’s earlier distraction.
“Also, I have a friend coming to the county town in the next few days, and I thought it would be good for you to meet him.”
“Do you have time?”
“Dad, why didn’t I hear you mention this? Who is it?” Chen MO asked first.
“You, always disappearing, how can I tell you?” Chen Shan huffed in dissatisfaction.
“This friend of mine has some influence here, and I think he might be able to help you,” Chen Shan said, looking at Xia Wan. “Especially since Wanwan is so skilled in medicine. With his introduction, she might find better opportunities.”
“Alright! Thank you, Uncle Chen!” Xia Wan replied with a sweet smile.
Chen MO had thought Xia Wan would refuse, but she agreed without hesitation.
Since Xia Wan had agreed, he naturally had no reason to refuse.
Throughout the meal, Chen Shan and Chen Shui were very warm to Xia Wan, leaving Chen MO with no chance to talk to her.
Fortunately, after they had eaten and drunk their fill, Chen Shan and his daughter asked the driver to take them back to the residence arranged by Chen Mo.
Chen MO, holding Xia Wan’s hand, complained unwillingly, “That old man, he kept me from talking to you all night!”
“Chen MO, do you know who the person who argued with Shuishui today was?” Xia Wan asked, ignoring Chen MO’s grumbling.
“I don’t care who she is! Anyone who bullies my sister needs to be taught a lesson!” Chen MO growled coldly, unconcerned about the other party’s ident.i.ty.
“That’s not what I meant!” Xia Wan felt that things were more complicated.
“I’ve seen that woman before.”
“All three of them know Jiang Lu!”
“Jiang Lu?” Chen Mo’s anger flared again. “Is that the brat who keeps chasing after you?”
Xia Wan, unable to stand it anymore, slapped Chen Mo. “Did you forget? I told you Jiang Lu is after you!”
“So what? Do you think I’m afraid of him?” Chen MO still didn’t seem to care.
“That woman said her brother is in the military. If they really team up against you…” Xia Wan couldn’t help but worry.
“Don’t worry!” Chen MO pulled Xia Wan into his arms. “People in the military can’t just do whatever they want! ”
“You better be careful. I always feel that Jiang Lu is up to something strange,” Xia Wan still felt uneasy.
Chen MO patted Xia Wan’s hand. “Don’t worry! I’m here! Even if he’s Sun
Wukong, I’ll press him under the Five Fingers Mountain!”
Xia Wan chuckled lightly, her nervous mood somewhat alleviated.
Elsewhere, Jiang Lu stood under the streetlights, smoking a cigarette.
Buzzcut stood in front of him. “What? Didn’t things go well with Old Liang today?”
Jiang Lu took a deep puff of his cigarette, then threw the remaining half on the ground and stamped on it forcefully.
“That Old Man Liang just doesn’t know what’s good for him!” Jiang Lu said fiercely.
“I’ve tried several times to get him to agree to the military supplies purchase, but he always declines!”
“Those women are also useless!”
“I thought I could use Xu Jia and Wu Shut s connections, but that only gave the old man more chances to beat around the bus.h.!.+”
“You don’t need to be so anxious. Your family’s business isn’t dependent on this…” Buzzcut stopped mid-sentence when he saw Jiang Lu’s expression and shut his mouth again.
“Alright, no use talking about this now,” Buzzcut quickly changed the subject.
“Old Liang will be here for a few more days. We’ll find another way!”
Jiang Lu mumbled something, seemingly unwilling, but still got into the car parked nearby and disappeared into the night.
The next morning, Xia Chen and Xia Wan had just arrived at the school gate when they ran into Zhuang Peng and others waiting at the door.
“Xia Chen, don’t forget our bet!” Zhuang Peng said with a determined look.
“When the time comes, don’t be reluctant to hand over your little woman!”
Xia Chen didn’t respond, watching Zhuang Peng and his friends leave with a laugh, feeling somewhat helpless..
