Xu Wantang looked at Li Shao with the same gentlemanly expression.

"Manager Li, I don't like wontons."

"..."

Li Shao was stunned.

Xu Wantang continued, "Manager Li, we're not very familiar with each other, I'll be leaving now."

"Miss Xu, what did I do wrong?"

Li Shao blocked her way.

Before Xu Wantang could speak, Xu Shengze's voice came from behind her.

"Wantang, what are you and Li Shao doing here?"

Xu Wantang glanced at Li Shao, then turned around and saw Xu Shengze pushing Cen Shichuan.

Cen Shichuan looked at the two of them and said coldly, "What a coincidence."

Li Shao hesitated and said, "I just happened to run into you, so I won't disturb your meal."

He dusted himself off and left.

He left behind a thought-provoking statement.

Xu Shengze stepped forward and said, "Wantang, you made this appointment? Even if he saved you in the elevator, you can't disregard the Third Young Master's reputation."

Xu Wantang explained, "I didn't make any appointments."

"Okay, okay, I made the appointment." Xu Shengze tried to smooth things over. "Shi Chuan, just consider me the one who made the appointment. I'll pay for his table later too."

Cen Shichuan stared at Xu Wantang: "No need, I'll pay. After all, it was my wife I saved."

"Alright, but Wan Tang is being too presumptuous."

Xu Shengze nodded at Xu Wantang.

Xu Wantang frowned and raised her voice: "I'll say it one last time, I didn't make any plans..."

That's enough.

Cen Shichuan interrupted angrily: "Xu Wantang, don't think you can be unruly just because you're in the Xu family."

"You really believe what others say?" Xu Wantang asked.

"I only believe what I see. You should reflect on your actions at the Xu family's place recently."

Cen Shichuan turned his wheelchair and left.

"Shi Chuan, Shi Chuan, please don't blame Wan Tang..."

Xu Shengze called out twice, but his feet seemed rooted to the spot.

How could he possibly not catch up with Cen Shichuan in his wheelchair? He just didn't want to.

After Cen Shichuan walked away, Xu Shengze turned around and looked at Xu Wantang.

"Wantang, what exactly happened? You and Li Shaoye..."

"Aren't we supposed to be eating? I'm hungry."

Xu Wantang ignored Cen Shichuan and went straight to the table.

Xu Shengze was stunned for a moment, then quickly caught up: "If you like Li Shao, I'll help you after your divorce..."

"Brother!" Xu Wantang looked at him. "That's enough. I just want to eat now."

"..."

Xu Shengze felt a tightness in his chest.

This was the first time Xu Wantang had stared at him with such a complex look.

Disappointment, alienation.

Xu Shengze nodded: "Let's eat."

After he was seated and the food was served, he received a message from Xu Chuxue.

"Brother, how are you?"

"Yes, it worked. Shi Chuan is gone."

"Thank you, brother. I knew you were the best to me."

Xu Shengze looked at Xu Chuxue's coquettish text message, but Xu Wantang's gaze from just now was still in his mind.

In the past, Xu Wantang would also act coquettishly towards him.

"Brother, this question is so hard, I don't know how to do it, please help me."

"What a silly child! I've explained this problem to you once already, and you still haven't memorized it."

"Fine, I'm stupid, you're the smartest brother."

When did Xu Wantang stop acting cute towards him?

It seemed to be the first time he spoke up for Xu Chuxue, following his parents' advice to her.

After saying bad things about her, the whole family became unusually calm and harmonious.

Only Wan Tang stood there quietly, watching him.

It's as if it's asking, "Brother, why?"

"Brother, you have to help me. Chen Jingjing has already made preparations, otherwise she will definitely expose my relationship with the Third Young Master. I don't want to be called a mistress."

Xu Chuxue sent another message.

After some hesitation, Xu Shengze finally gave his approval.

"Um."

He glanced at Xu Wantang eating across from him and thought to himself: Wantang, just bear with it a little longer. Once Chuxue and Shichuan are together openly, your brother will make it up to you.

Xu Wantang ate a few bites casually, and as she put down her chopsticks, her phone lit up.

It's Cen Yuan.

"Li Shao's Profile"

After she clicked on it, she discovered that Li Shao had only joined the Xu family half a month ago.

In other words, Xu Shengze had no idea about Li Shao at all.

He actually offered to play matchmaker for them, and in order to help Xu Chuxue, he randomly paired them up.

but……

"Second Brother, why are you investigating Li Shao?"

"You seem to have no resistance to this kind of man."

The blunt words from the other person made Xu Wantang choke on her food.

"Cough cough cough!"

She quickly took a sip of water.

"I didn't!"

"No? You've already memorized his name," Cen Yuan replied.

Xu Wantang pursed her lips.

Okay, yes.

She used to like gentlemen and mild-mannered men.

Cen Shichuan used to be that kind of man too.

Li Shao also has at least a 70% chance.

But she doesn't like it now.

"I don't like men like that anymore."

"So you like Cen Shichuan the way he is now?"

"..."

Xu Wantang gasped. How come she had never noticed that Cen Yuan had such a sharp side before?

"Is that so?" Cen Yuan asked again.

"Why is Second Brother so concerned about what kind of man I like?"

After sending the message, Xu Wantang regretted it.

She slammed the screen, but it was too late to undo the attack.

However, Cen Yuan did not reply to the message.

He was the one who asked the question, and he was also the one who didn't answer.

strangeness.

Xu Wantang continued looking at Li Shao's information.

"Wantang, what's wrong? What are you looking at?" Xu Shengze came closer.

Xu Wantang put down her phone: "Online video, I'm full."

Xu Shengze glanced at his phone but didn't ask any further questions.

In the afternoon, the two returned to the Xu family together.

Xu Shengze gave Xu Wantang a few documents to look at.

During this period, Li Shao inexplicably appeared many times.

She didn't deliberately avoid him, after all, Li Shao had other uses.

As evening approached, Xu Shengze came to pick up Xu Wantang and mentioned Li Shao again.

"I heard from your assistant that Li Shao has helped you a lot."

"I guess so, there are some parts of the documents I don't understand," Xu Wantang said truthfully.

"That's great. I didn't expect you two to be so compatible. Actually, I think he's quite suitable for you. He works at Hsu's, so you'll have to join the company to help out in the future."

Xu Shengze became more and more excited as he spoke.

Xu Wantang listened quietly, and finally asked, "Brother, do you know him well? How long has he been with the company? How many people are in his family? What do his parents do for a living? What did he do before?"

"..."

Xu Shengze couldn't answer any of them.

This kind of thing can be done by simply looking at the resume.

But he obviously didn't look at it.

As for whether this person is suitable or not, there's no need to guess; Xu Wantang knows it must be Xu Chuxue who said she's very suitable.

A long silence fell over the car.

Xu Shengze pursed his lips: "Then I'll have someone find out. By the way, Mom said the house hasn't been lively in a long time, so she wants to hold a banquet. The company is also holding a cocktail party, so you can go with us."

"Okay. When?"

"tomorrow."

"..."

Oh.

Oh, it was a notification.

Xu Wantang didn't speak, she just looked out the car window.

Well, it's time for everything to come to an end.

Whether it's family affection or romantic love.

What doesn't belong to you should be cut off completely.
