I just want to be a salted fish quietly Chapter 034

“The watch and bracelet were both bought by me personally accompanying him, what do you think?”

Yan Xiaoman continued, “Lin Xian is richer than you, right? When has he ever shown off? And all his money is earned through his own hard work, it has nothing to do with his parents.”

“Putting money aside, even if Lin Xian had no money, I would still like him. I think character and talent are more important than money. Wang Hong, as a classmate, let me tell you something: don’t value money too much!”

Previously, everyone’s perception of Wang Hong wasn’t that bad, but when compared to Lin Xian, the gap immediately became apparent.

He drove his dad’s BMW every day, and would constantly slap his car keys on the table, as if afraid others wouldn’t know.

And Lin Xian?

He bought a watch worth over two hundred thousand, and when asked about it, he humbly said it was a knockoff. As for his talent and character, let’s not even talk about it; just this low-key personality alone could put him dozens of streets ahead of Wang Hong.

In Yan Xiaoman’s eyes, comparing Wang Hong to Lin Xian was simply asking for humiliation.

“Sister Miaomiao, we still have some things to do, so we’ll be leaving first!”

With that, Yan Xiaoman pulled Lin Xian to his feet and quickly walked out of the private room.

Seeing this, Zhang Manyao also stretched lazily and said, “It’s getting late, I should go back too.”

“I’m going home too.”

“Wait for me, let’s go together!”

Soon, as Yan Xiaoman and Lin Xian left, other girls followed suit.

Their good mood for the sisters’ gathering was completely ruined, and there was no point in staying any longer.

In an instant, the vast private room became empty, leaving only the displeased Wang Hong alone.

…

As everyone walked out of the KTV, Yan Xiaoman said apologetically, “Sister Miaomiao, I’m so sorry. It’s all because of me that the gathering ended early.”

“How could I blame you!”

Miao Shanshan comforted her, then said, “I’ll head back first, you two be careful on the way.”

“Goodbye Sister Miaomiao, goodbye Xiaoman.”

“Bye-bye!”

“I’m going back too.”

Yan Xiaoman smiled and waved goodbye to them one by one. When it was Zhang Manyao’s turn, the two girls glared at each other and snorted.

Lin Xian found it very interesting. Earlier in the KTV private room, Zhang Manyao had proactively stood up to speak for Yan Xiaoman.

And when Yan Xiaoman saw her being rebuked by Wang Hong, she also appeared very angry.

These two girls are really interesting, a love-hate relationship.

After everyone else had left, Lin Xian put his arm around Yan Xiaoman’s shoulder and chuckled, “Darling, you were absolutely perfect just now!”

However, Yan Xiaoman glanced at him and said faintly, “Don’t be so quick to praise me. What was the situation with you asking Zhang Manyao for her QQ number?”

Damn it!

Earlier at the hotpot restaurant, Yan Xiaoman had seemed indifferent, but he didn’t expect her to have held onto it!

“Wasn’t I just preparing to find a mistress in advance!”

No sooner had he spoken than Yan Xiaoman reached out her small hand and pinched him hard on his waist, “Speak properly!”

“That was a long time ago. Didn’t Wang Zixuan always like Zhang Manyao? But you know this guy, he’s usually very introverted, but when he actually has to face a girl, he can’t even fart with three sticks. So he begged me to help him get Zhang Manyao’s QQ number.”

After hearing Lin Xian’s explanation, Yan Xiaoman smiled brightly, “Alright, you pass!”

“Let’s go, I’ll take you home!”

Lin Xian started the electric scooter and skillfully rode Yan Xiaoman towards Green Stream Garden residential area.

On the way, Lin Xian suddenly asked, “By the way, what exactly is the situation between you and Zhang Manyao?”

“It’s just as you saw, although we don’t get along, we’re not enemies!” Yan Xiaoman brushed back the hair that had been blown by the wind and smiled.

…

Green Stream Garden residential area.

Chen Lei sat in the living room, checked the time, and said worriedly, “It’s almost ten o’clock, why isn’t Xiaoman back yet? She’s not answering her phone either.”

“It’s a classmate’s birthday, she might have played a bit longer.”

Yan Jianhua had just gotten off work not long ago and was starving. He ate his dinner while answering.

If it were in the past, Chen Lei wouldn’t have been like this.

But ever since she found out her daughter was dating last night, she couldn’t help but overthink.

“Do you think Xiaoman and Lin Xian…?”

Chen Lei didn’t say it explicitly, but as an adult, Yan Jianhua immediately understood his wife’s meaning.

His hand holding the chopsticks paused slightly, and he frowned, “I don’t think so, Xiaoman has a sense of propriety!”

Chen Lei retorted, “What sense of propriety?! How old is Xiaoman? If a boy is smooth-talking and uses sweet words to deceive her, they might just sleep together.”

Seeing Yan Jianhua still eating, Chen Lei said angrily, “Eat, eat, eat, all you know is to eat, your daughter is about to be deceived by someone else.”

“Alright, I’ll go out and see, alright?”

Yan Jianhua sighed, picked up his phone, and left.

Arriving at the community entrance, he didn’t wait long before he saw an electric bicycle approaching.

After Yan Xiaoman got off the bike, she didn’t give Lin Xian a chance to speak, waving her hand and saying, “I’m going back first, be careful on your way!”

With that, she ran into the community like a startled little rabbit.

After her dad had seen what happened last night, Yan Xiaoman always felt that the community entrance was unsafe.

Lin Xian was about to leave when a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him, “Yo, young man, what a coincidence!”

He turned his head and saw it was none other than Yan Jianhua!

Lin Xian said with a wry smile, “Uncle, you’re still not off work this late!”

“Maintaining public order in the area is my job!”

Yan Jianhua chuckled, “You’re Lin Xian, right? Is your electric bike registered? Do you have your ID and driver’s license?”

“Uncle, you don’t need to be like this, do you!” Lin Xian said speechlessly.

“So you don’t have them?”

Yan Jianhua’s tone shifted, and he sternly said, “Get off, get down, one hundred push-ups!”

“Again?”

Lin Xian pulled a long face and struggled, “Uncle, please let me go! I promise, I’ll go register the electric bike tomorrow!”

“Hurry up, one hundred, you’re not allowed to leave until you finish today!”

Yan Jianhua thought to himself, you little brat made my wife worried all night and made me unable to eat my dinner properly, so punishing you with a hundred push-ups isn’t too much, is it?

Helpless, Lin Xian could only obediently get off the bike and do push-ups.

He had eaten quite a lot tonight, plus a lot of fruit at the KTV, so his stomach was bloated.

After doing thirty in a row, he had to stop and rest.

Yan Jianhua wasn’t in a hurry. He leisurely pulled out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one, and chuckled, “Don’t rush, take your time, there are still 70 to go!”

Under Yan Jianhua’s supervision, Lin Xian stubbornly completed a full hundred push-ups before he was allowed to leave.
