Xu Xiaoxiao, drying his hair, paused, sparing Wu Lili a glance. “Who are you?”
“I’m an educated youth from the village. I’ll lend you the towel. You can return it to me later.” Wu Lili smiled sweetly.
“I don’t need it.” Xu Xiaoxiao waved her off, a cold rejection if anything.
Since he was young, women of all ages and backgrounds had tried to curry favor with him by offering towels, water, and food. He was used to it. However, he knew not to take any of them seriously and had even grown to hate it at some point. None of them were sincere. They only ever turned to him after failing to garner Zhou Hengyang’s attention; he always came second best.
Humph!
Was he the kind of man to pick up another’s leftovers?
It just showed how none of them understood him.
Xu Xiaoxiao continued to dry himself with his shirt. He could not be bothered to entertain Wu Lili.
“You…!” Wu Lili flushed an angry shade of red. She could not tell whether it was anger or humiliation that had caused this reaction in her.
Su Wen watched the scene unfold with great interest. Given her knowledge of Wu Lili and her fling with Su Pingfan in the past, her present actions were not unexpected. Wu Lili was not like Su Pingping or Sun Xiaocao.
She was probably seething.
“What’s put you in such a good mood?” Zhou Hengyang sensed Su Wen’s buoyant mood, unsure what to think, so he settled on a cold, neutral glance in her direction.
“Oh, it’s nothing. I just thought of something funny.”
“What’s so funny?” Zhou Hengyang could not tell at all.
Su Wen pointed at Sun Yunyun, who approached Xu Xiaoxiao and whispered, “Something funny is about to happen.” Su Wen dearly wished she had packed some melon seeds and peanuts to enjoy the show.
Zhou Hengyang had just been about to leave when Su Wen told him something amusing would soon occur. It was a treat seeing her so happy.
‘Forget it!’ Since Su Wen was gearing up for a show – one she thought would be highly entertaining – he would stay and accompany her. Besides, he was used to seeing his younger cousin acting silly. It had been a while since he had enjoyed seeing his younger cousin making a fool of himself, and he missed it.
“Big Brother Xu.” Sun Yunyun gritted her teeth in anger at Wu Lili’s sudden appearance. She felt quite a bit of disdain for Wu Lili. While they shared a decent relationship, one forged at the expense of Su Wen, Sun Yunyun had always looked down on Wu Lili as a person.
Wu Lili had no self-respect despite her education and life in the city, which showed when she hooked up with Su Pingfan.
Wu Lili and Su Pingfan deserved each other because they were equally shameless.
Wu Lili had no right to stand beside Xu Xiaoxiao; she was a blight against his unblemished person.
“Big Brother Xu, you’re here.” Sun Yunyun pushed aside Wu Lili, that eyesore, going so far as to snatch the towel out of her hands and offer it to Xu Xiaoxiao. Perhaps a little more forward than acceptable, she used the opportunity to touch Xu Xiaoxiao’s ripped figure.
Wu Lili’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. She did not even have the chance to react before the towel was out of her hands and in Sun Yunyun’s.
Little Sister Su and Sixth Sister were short and did not have as great of a presence as those older than them. Su Wen and Su Qing had told them not to play by the river before, so they stood some distance away, calling Xu Xiaoxiao to get his attention.
Both sisters rolled their eyes when they saw the annoying Sun Yunyun running over to talk to Xu Xiaoxiao.
They mirrored each other so perfectly that it was almost uncanny.
It was one of those traits that showed how close they were as sisters. Su Wen winked at Zhou Hengyang. “What do you think will happen? Will your cousin hook up with Sun Yunyun?” Speaking of which, Sun Yunyun was the female lead in the novel she had read. In many romance novels, other than the cool male lead, the female would often be surrounded by affectionate second,
third, and even fourth male leads, and so on….
