Chapter 165: Chapter 165 I have a girlfriend?
Even if my skin was as thick as a castle wall, I still couldn’t help but blush. With my stepmother’s soft breasts pressed against my body, it felt very awkward, “Mom, let me go!”
“Oops, sorry, sorry. My hair is still wet, hehe.” My stepmother quickly got up, and embarrassedly picked up the towel and wiped my face that had been wet by her hair, but her body was still leaning on my shoulder.
Why did I feel that my dear stepmother had a screw loose in her head like Ms. Shu?
“Come, taste those dishes. It’s all good things,” I opened the thermos box with a smile to get rid of the clingy stepmother, “caviar, foie gras, snails. . . I forgot what the rest are called. Anyway, eat while they’re still hot. If you leave them until tomorrow, they might go bad. Oh, there’s still a bottle of 1982 Lafite, Yuan Yuan, go get two glasses and let mom and dad taste it.”
“1982 Lafite?” My stepmother took the bottle and said in surprise, “Xiao Nan, why did you buy such an expensive thing? And snails? Is this French food?”
My old man’s reaction was very quick. He ate a spoonful of caviar and asked, “Is the business with Xiao Guo done?”
“Not yet, but we should be able to get the result tomorrow,” I used a special fork to pick a piece of meat from the snail shell, hand it to my stepmother, and then chuckled, “It was someone else’s treat tonight, so I ordered two more dishes and packed them back.”
My old man’s lifestyle was frugal and simple, he didn’t care much about what he ate and dressed, and he also didn’t like to splurge. If I said that I bought those dishes myself, it would be fine if he didn’t know about the price; otherwise, he would definitely spit a mouthful of food that cost at least a thousand Chinese Yuan onto my face.
It was not that I didn’t want to brag about myself. I just didn’t dare to do it in front of my old man.
My stepmother was like a puppy, not only did she not take the fork away from my hand, but she actually opened her mouth and directly ate from my hand, “Yummy! Wow, it’s delicious, Xiao Nan, these things are definitely not cheap, right?”
I had tried to stop her, but I still failed. Chu Yuan was still in a great mood, she giggled and said: “Mom, guess how much money my elder brother ate tonight, several hundred thousand! The other guy knew that elder brother was playing with him, but he still paid the bill obediently, haha, the look on his face when he saw the bill was so funny.”
“Several hundred thousand? ! Cough. Cough . .” My stepmother almost spat everything onto my face.
My old man’s wrists quivered in shock, and his complexion suddenly sank. I was in a cold sweat, but Chu Yuan treated it as an interesting story, telling them what happened like a twittering bird.
Although Chu Yuan usually didn’t like talking, I suddenly discovered that she was quite eloquent. Under the expressive talk, even my serious-faced old man was amused, and my stepmother even laughed.
“Mom, elder brother is so bad, right? How could he play with other people like that? That was too much.” Chu Yuan said so, but her gloating expression was obviously not condemning my behavior.
“Xiao Nan, it was indeed a bit too much,” my old man said, and the humourous atmosphere immediately dropped several degrees, “are you not afraid of others’ revenge? None of those rich people are easy to be trifled with. Even if you have the general manager Mo’s backing, you still shouldn’t make it so obvious. . .”
“All you know is to ruin the mood,” my stepmother was displeased, putting her arm on my shoulder, proudly said: “My son is much smarter than that man, does he dare to take revenge?”
Chu Yuan probably realized that she had said too much, and seeing my old man’s face dropped, she hurriedly agreed with my stepmother: “That’s right. If he was smart, he wouldn’t have been tricked by elder brother. We are not afraid of him!” ‘Why does this sound a bit like she is making fun of my intelligence?’
Of course, they would not be afraid. I secretly smiled bitterly, my old man was right, how could those rich people be messed with easily? Today, I was able to take advantage because I was prepared in advance and caught other people by surprise. If they were plotting something against me one day, it would indeed be difficult to deal with.
My old man sighed with a wry smile, “Sigh… Long hair but short wit. . .”
My stepmother was just about to stuff foie gras in her mouth. Hearing this comment, she was extremely offended, “You are such a sexist! And you are still a teacher!”
“Okay, okay. I don’t want to argue with you. . .” My old man really didn’t know how to deal with my stepmother. He shook his head and said to me: “Xiao Nan, just think it more carefully before you act in the future, and don’t be so ostentatious. Knowing how to use little tricks to deceive other people is not equal to great wisdom. Remember to hide your true ability.”
I listened to my old man and responded, “Mhm, I will remember it.”
My old man nodded in satisfaction, took the cup that Chu Yuan had brought, and poured a glass of red wine. Ignoring my stepmother who was still complaining in a low voice on the side, he said with a smile: “But I can understand why you did it this time. After all, it’s for little girl Cheng’s cousin, and she is also Yuan Yuan’s teacher. Hehe, speaking of it, we can be considered as colleagues. . .”
Speaking of Liusu, my stepmother immediately became energetic, “Yes, Xiao Nan, why were you trying so hard to take up the cudgels on behalf of Xiao Cheng? Are you. . . Hehe, you know what mom means right?”
“Mom, your smile is so dirty.”
“Get lost. How can you say this to your mother?” The stepmother pointed my forehead with her finger, and scowled, “Tell me, are you two going out?”
I blushed, “No. . .”
“Yuxuan, don’t talk nonsense if you don’t know,” my old man squinted his eyes and said to my stepmother. “Xiao Nan already has a girlfriend. . .”
“Who? !”
“Who? !”
My stepmother and Chu Yuan almost spoke at the same time. Seeing my stepmother looking at her in surprise, Chu Yuan blushed and said to my old man: “You’re talking nonsense, I live with him, why didn’t I know he has a girlfriend? !”
Earlier on, she was calling me elder brother this and elder brother that, but now it became “he”. It was obvious that this bratty girl didn’t like Liusu.
“It’s a policewoman. She is a good girl. She doesn’t have the squeamishness that young girls have nowadays. She is knowledgeable, but not pretentious, and has a straightforward personality. Moreover, she has a sense of righteousness in her and a pretty look. When she stands next to Xiao Nan, it looks like they are a perfect couple.” Then my old man said with a sign of pity, “Of course, Xiao Cheng is also good, tall, and pretty, but. . . She is a little bit too vivacious, not suitable for Xiao Nan. . .”
I almost wanted to roar out, ‘Dong Xiaoye that tigress is a hundred times more ‘vivacious’ than Liusu, and. . . She is not my girlfriend at all!’
“Policewoman? When did you see her, why didn’t I know?” As if my stepmother was jealous, while she was asking my old man, she pinched my arm fiercely. ‘Alas, Chu Yuan’s habit was indeed inherited from her. . .’
“Last time Xiao Nan went to school to see me, the girl was with him and they had a meal together. . . Besides, that’s their personal business, and I am not like you nosy women who like to gossip about other people’s business. So why should I tell everyone about it?” My old man was clearly lying. The reason why he didn’t mention it to my stepmother was probably that he also wasn’t sure about it. He knew the character of my stepmother. Once he revealed a little bit of information, my stepmother would definitely want to see her.
On the contrary, Chu Yuan’s little hand that had reached out behind me to pinch the tender area of my waist loosened, after knowing that the woman my old man was talking about was Dong Xiaoye.
“Who are you calling nosy woman?” My stepmother retorted my old man, and then glanced at me, “Xiao Nan, do you really have a girlfriend?” Her expression was fierce, but her eyes flashed with joy and expectation.
“No, that policewoman and I are just ordinary friends. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Yuan Yuan, she also met with her before.”
Chu Yuan nodded and said: “Mhm.” Chu Yuan had a habit of checking my phone, so she knew very well that Dong Xiaoye and I had almost never been in contact with each other, so of course, there was no way she would be my girlfriend.
My old man didn’t believe it at all. The way he looked at Chu Yuan was like he was telling her, ‘You are a kid, what do you know?’ But he was scared of my stepmother, so he simply stopped talking and focused on eating.
However, my stepmother didn’t seem to want to stop talking about it. While eating, she smiled at me, “Xiao Nan, you are not young anymore. It’s time to start a family. I think Xiao Cheng is a good girl, and she also gets along with you. . .”
My stepmother’s words really touched a chord with me. I didn’t know why I laughed like a fool, shy like a kid. My stepmother liked Liusu. Such an attitude made me feel inexplicably joyful, but Chu Yuan frowned, “Mom, elder brother is only twenty-three, what do you mean he is not young anymore? Why does he have to get married so early?”
