"It's good to let Lele play fishing."
Xiaozhouzi quickly and respectfully replied, "Of course, of course."
Bai Le tugged at Xi Yan's sleeve, signaling him to stop talking, or Xiaozhouzi would tremble like a leaf.
"Who is he?" The woman next to her couldn't hold back any longer and, taking advantage of a moment when no one was looking, asked Xiaozhouzi, who seemed to have a very good temper.
Unexpectedly, Xiaozhouzi glared at him and said, "That's not something you should be asking."
Feeling awkward, the woman pursed her lips and was about to shut up when Wu Hua, standing beside her, suddenly frowned and asked in confusion, "Don't you know him?"
The woman was taken aback, then shook her head and denied it, saying, "Of course I don't know her."
Wu Hua's face suddenly turned extremely pale, and he repeatedly muttered, "It's over."
Xiaozhouzi quickly asked him what was wrong. After listening to Wu Hua's explanation of the whole story, he couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder with a look of sympathy.
Take care.
Wu Hua glared at him, then slapped his hand away. "I don't believe Lele would be so disloyal as to betray me."
Xiaozhouzi hissed, "You can only call me 'Lele' behind my back, never call me that in front of my fourth uncle."
"Father, Dad just caught a really big fish!" Mu Mu excitedly pointed to the fish in the bucket.
Xi Yan glanced at the small fish, about the length of a finger, in the bucket, then smiled slightly, "They're quite big."
Bai Le ground his back teeth. Did he think Bai Le couldn't tell that he was being mocked?
Xi Yan smiled slightly, "Should we take it back and raise it?"
Bai Le:?"
Xi Yan patiently explained, "The aquarium just happened to be a little empty."
Bai Le: "..."
"I plan to take it back, but I'm going to cook it and eat it."
And isn't it a waste and a pity to use such an expensive aquarium to keep goldfish and grass carp?
Hearing this, Mu Mu's eyes widened slightly, clearly shocked.
"Are you going to eat the small fish?"
Bai Le quickly denied it. "It's not for eating, it's for taking back and raising. Look how small the little fish is, how could Daddy eat it?" Of course, he'd wait until it grew bigger before eating it.
Mu Mu nodded, still somewhat doubtful.
The woman standing to the side, having witnessed this scene, immediately understood what was going on. She felt even more envious. She had thought Wu Hua was already a high-performing prospect, but unexpectedly, a "puls" version of him suddenly appeared. Moreover, judging from their conversation just now, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was spoiling and indulging her.
He must have used the child to tie someone down. That must be it. Otherwise, she couldn't imagine why such a man would get married. At least among the wealthy couples she had seen, there was no one like him. How could someone be so grown up and still be pampered like a child?
She knew her own thoughts were ridiculous, but only by constantly hypnotizing herself like this could she feel less unbalanced.
And to be honest, seeing her peers doing so well, she really wanted to ask them how to master the art of dealing with men so that they would listen to her every word and pamper her like royalty.
Thinking of this, she took out her phone again and texted her girlfriends.
"Damn, the guy I was talking about earlier isn't that colleague's sugar daddy."
A question mark immediately followed.
The woman replied through gritted teeth, "Another man a million times better than him has arrived. He's handsome, and judging from how others treat him, he's not someone to be trifled with."
"So what?"
"So he's the husband of that colleague of ours. She already has two kids, and is pregnant with another one, and they seem to have a great relationship! This shouldn't be the case. I've seen so many wealthy couples who get married and have children, but the novelty wears off quickly, and they start doing their own thing."
The other person reacted the same way. "Damn, I'm jealous too."
"I really want to ask him how he hooks up with men."
"Let me see! I want to see what they look like. I want to see both of them, I'm so curious!"
"No, I dare not."
After some pushing and shoving, the woman reluctantly and secretly pulled out the camera, then pretended to take a selfie, pointing the lens at Xi Yan and Bai Le.
Just as she was about to press the button, Xi Yan suddenly turned his head slowly, his dark eyes fixed on her, as if he had discovered her little thoughts.
However, he quickly looked away, as if he didn't care about her actions or didn't care about her at all.
The woman was so startled by that look that her hand trembled, almost causing her to miss taking the picture, but fortunately she succeeded in the end.
Even though Xi Yan didn't pursue the matter, she was still so scared that her typing was trembling. Now she understood why these people were so afraid of him.
My friend replied to the message almost immediately after receiving the photos.
"Holy crap! Isn't this the Bai family and Xi Families?!"
"Who?"
"The person you're talking about isn't in the same industry! He's the eldest son of the Bai family, and the other woman married the Fourth Master of the Xi Family. He's the man looking at you in the photo. Oh my god, that scared me to death! I made eye contact with him!"
Woman. "..."
At this moment, Bai Le was of course unaware of the complex thoughts in the mind of the woman who had just spoken to him. He only felt extremely conflicted, and this conflict persisted until after they finished fishing. When Xi Yan led him to say goodbye to the others and was about to drive home, he pretended to be nonchalant and asked the question that had been bothering him.
Someone just said they knew you.
Who is it?
Bai Le scratched his head. "It's just a woman." He couldn't explain the rest, so he could only say that for now.
Xi Yan shook his head and said calmly, "I don't know him."
Bai Le didn't press the matter further. As long as Xi Yan denied it, he would definitely believe him unconditionally. There must be some misunderstanding.
The two walked for a few more minutes, until they reached the corner. Xi Yan frowned slightly, turned to look at Bai Le, and said in a deep voice, "You don't think I have any relationship with anyone else, do you?"
