The Tempting Educated Youth Married to a Rough Man-Chapter 200 - 196: Wen Ran: The Two of Us Can Collude Together
Xiao Chenye’s face looked awful, as if he’d eaten shit. "Don’t tell me, Xiao Chendong plans to use my sister for the trade?"
"More or less," the man shrugged. "Bao Zhu is at the age to get married, and his dad is anxious. If someone can bring Bao Zhu a wife, you think..."
"I think it’s bullshit!"
Xiao Chenye cursed, angry like a donkey spinning in circles.
"Alright, don’t worry," Feng Hua sniffed, "Even if he’s scheming something bad later on, as long as I know, I won’t let him succeed."
Speaking of which, Feng Hua paused, "But, how did you all..."
Xiao Chenye’s face turned green, "Chenxing came home today, she said Xiao Chendong went to see her and wants her to go to the family dinner when she’s off."
After more than a year of school, he should’ve invited his sister to dinner long ago.
But this sudden invite, almost screamed there’s something fishy going on.
"Damn!" Feng Hua cursed too, "I’m really curious, is Xiao Chendong really your biological brother?
Among your siblings, he’s the only one who isn’t decent."
"He’s certainly biological," growing up together, if Xiao Chendong had been switched, he’d definitely know.
Finally, feeling frustrated, "Bad bamboo shoots produce good bamboo shoots, good bamboo can also produce bad shoots."
"Forget it," Xiao Chenye said frankly, "Thanks for the favor today, I’ll treat you to a meal when I get the chance."
"Between us brothers, talking like this feels too formal.
Besides, I didn’t really help much, your brother’s matters, anyone you ask knows about."
"Alright," Xiao Chenye got on his bike, "I’ll find you later, it’s not early, and I have to make a trip to school. I’ll talk to you later."
"Go ahead!"
Wen Ran hopped on the bike, following Xiao Chenye and moving away.
Watching their backs, Feng Hua sighed and muttered, "No wonder you turned down all those girls I introduced to you, rejecting them left and right.
You’ve avoided meeting any of them, turns out this is your type."
Truthfully, she is indeed beautiful.
The little chubby kid watched Xiao Chenye and Wen Ran leave and was dumbfounded.
After a while, he blurted out, "Mom?"
Feng Hua: "?"
Huh?
The little chubby kid instantly collapsed, couldn’t even focus on his candy, sat on the ground and started wailing, "Mom’s gone, mom doesn’t want Xiao Zhi anymore."
Feng Hua: "...?"
What mom?
Who’s mom?
Watching the tantrum, Feng Hua shrunk his neck, feeling he shouldn’t get involved in these matters, just planning to walk away.
However, after two steps, the little chubby kid grabbed his ankle.
"Wah wah wah, I want mom~ give me mom~~"
Feng Hua: "..."
Ahhhh, what on earth is going on here?
Already acting insane?
...
Xiao Chenye didn’t know, after they left, the little chubby kid latched onto Feng Hua.
Riding his bike to the school all at once, he used the excuse of Xiao Chenxing being sick to apply for half a month’s leave for her.
Wen Ran: "...Uh, is it really necessary for that long?"
Xiao Chenye waved nonchalantly, "Ha, it looks like you don’t really know my sister.
For her, taking leave for two days and half a month makes no difference. Sitting in the classroom is just wasting time, might as well be at home wasting time, at least it puts me at ease."
Wen Ran: "If Star heard you say that, she’d definitely pounce and scratch you."
"I guess she’s welcome to, better than her getting into some trouble at school without us even knowing.
Thinking about it, really..."
Xiao Chenye paused, gritting his teeth, "Damn! Xiao Chendong the bastard, doesn’t even spare his own sister. Someday, I’ll make him pay."
Looking at Xiao Chenye like this, Wen Ran felt a little emotional.
Xiao Chenxing’s fate, in some way, seemed to have a tendency to overlap with the fate originally intended for the main character.
But...
The difference was, the original character was betrayed by their entire family.
Xiao Chenxing still had family members who truly cared about her.
"That’s nice," Wen Ran wrapped her arms around Xiao Chenye’s waist, tilting her head to offer a suggestion, "But don’t you think that if we just go back like this, it’d be a bit cowardly?"
Xiao Chenye braked abruptly, turned his head, looked at Wen Ran, and asked tentatively, "What do you mean?"
"Heh heh," Wen Ran smiled slyly, "Since Xiao Chendong started something, then he can’t blame us for retaliating in kind.
If we don’t fight back, won’t he keep thinking of us as easy targets?
Coming to hassle us whenever he feels like, isn’t that annoying."
If you ask me, return the favor in kind.
Xiao Chenye stared at Wen Ran, stunned. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Wen Ran frowned, "Hey hey hey, what’s with that look? Do I seem too malicious?"
"Not malicious," Xiao Chenye hesitated, "Just feels inappropriate."
Wen Ran: "...Are you soft-hearted? He’s nearly slapping you in the face, and you’re telling me it’s inappropriate?
I’ll tell you, you’re in trouble! When I get home, I’ll tell Star all about what you’re doing now.
I’ll let Star deal with you, see if she won’t scratch your face off."
Xiao Chenye’s face turned green, "Each thing to its own, Xiao Chendong manages because he knows where to find fools.
But I don’t know where to find fools, and if it’s a male fool, wouldn’t it ruin our family’s reputation?"
Wen Ran: "..."
She was completely speechless.
"Wait, when did I say that?"
"Didn’t you just say, fight fire with fire."
Wen Ran: "..."
She sighed, plainly stating, "What I meant was we could sneak in at night to scare them, or perhaps smash their windows, or dump something mysterious in the house, anything really."
With that in mind, Xiao Chenye felt less burdened.
The two exchanged glances, quickly reaching a consensus.
A sly smile, partners in mischief.
They biked back to the brigade, and before Wen Ran could catch her breath, Zhang Weihong and Zhang Shihua dragged her home.
The Zhang Family spared no expense this time, and prepared all the best meat and dishes.
Wen Ran ate till she was full, Zhang Chongxin was also delighted, opening a bottle of wine, and pulled Zhang Shihua to drink with him.
Wine is a delightful thing at this moment, Zhang Shihua had never drank before.
Smelling it, it was aromatic.
He picked up the wine glass, sipped and his facial features twisted from the spiciness, "My God!"
Zhang Shihua blurted his thoughts, "Drinking is all about paying to punish oneself, isn’t it? Ah?"
