Chapter 1818: Chapter 1819: Which Prestigious Family Is This Girl From?
Cui Jiangjing furrowed his eyebrows, suddenly squeezed her face mischievously, then turned his head away, muttering, “Your beauty is something the average man can’t appreciate. Only men with taste like me can. You don’t need to streak, just walk down the street in a tank top, and surely men will hit on you. But you, being such a tough straight woman, just don’t realize your own charm.”
“Tough straight woman? What’s that? I’ve only heard of straight men.” He wasn’t speaking quietly, and Gu Linxi heard him.
He immediately denied saying anything, “It’s nothing, just think of it as me talking to myself.”
“By the way, weren’t you sleeping inside just now? How come you’re up?” Cui Jiangjing decisively changed the topic.
Gu Linxi’s attention was indeed drawn to the two people in front, and she sneered, “Some people are too noisy!”
Mrs. Shen and Shen Yu saw a sign of compromise in Cui Jiangjing, but it was extinguished when she suddenly interjected. Mrs. Shen’s expression wasn’t good, her eyes were red, and she wiped them, “Jiangjing, who is this girl?”
She seemed to speak warmly as if she was easy to get along with.
But Gu Linxi didn’t miss the disdain in her eyes.
Of course, Cui Jiangjing also noticed her disdain for Gu Linxi, his peach blossom eyes darkened, and he felt a bit uncomfortable inside. Given that Mrs. Shen regarded him as her elder, he restrained his temper and didn’t explode, “My girlfriend.”
“Your girlfriend?” Mrs. Shen showed a look of surprise, as if it were incredible that Gu Linxi could be his girlfriend, “…No wonder you two seem so close. What family is this girl a daughter of?”
She actually wanted to ask how Gu Linxi appeared in the auto repair shop.
Cui Jiangjing, with his clever mind, knew what she meant the moment she spoke, his eyes darkened again, and he answered frankly, without any hint of embarrassment, “Xixi isn’t a daughter of any family, she’s just my girlfriend. If you’re asking about her job, she’s probably the owner-manager of the auto repair shop. This is her shop.”
What does it matter if his girlfriend is a mechanic?
He knows just how accomplished she is!
“Mechanic?” Mrs. Shen apparently hadn’t expected Gu Linxi’s identity to be so… ordinary and down-to-earth. She couldn’t control her expression and forced a dry smile, “Your girlfriend is really…”
For a moment, she couldn’t think of a compliment, and after struggling for a while, she managed to say two words, “hard-working.”
Perhaps realizing that her compliment was as good as no compliment at all, she quickly said to Cui Jiangjing, “Many young people nowadays rely on their family and rarely want to strive by themselves. Like Siyuan, that girl is spoiled by me. Even though she got into a good university and did well in school, she refuses to focus on the family business. She just loves shopping, eating, and having afternoon tea with friends all day. I’ve told her so many times, but she just won’t listen. Sometimes I want to teach her a lesson, but seeing her acting spoiled, remembering how she grew from a little Tuan into a big girl, I can’t bear to scold her.”
As she spoke, she seemed about to start crying again, “It’s all my fault for spoiling her too much usually. It’s all my fault, I know my own problems now. Jiangjing, help Auntie, give Auntie another chance, I’ll definitely discipline her well, and won’t be reluctant anymore!”
So after saying so much, she still couldn’t get around Shen Siyuan.
It was all just to make excuses for Shen Siyuan.
