Capítulo 163: Você é que é feia!

Puff!

Wang Ze, who was eating, instantly spat out his food the moment he heard Jiang Xiaohan’s words.

What the hell kind of "supporting you"?

Did I offend you guys?

Must you guys show affection right in front of me? Can't you let a guy eat in peace?

Wang Ze had already kept a very low profile, but these two insisted on making even his meal taste like dog food. He couldn't take it anymore.

Single guys have human rights too!

Will this ever end?

Believe it or not, I'll beat you guys to death!

Even a cornered dog will jump over the wall... Bah...

He was getting way too into the single guy role.

For a moment, Wang Ze was filled with resentment toward Jiang Xiaohan and Zhao Wanxi.

Can we still happily play together like this?

However, hearing Jiang Xiaohan's words, Zhao Wanxi calmly stated, "That was my money to begin with!"

When Jiang Xiaohan heard this, he was stunned too.

It seemed that really was the case.

Although Zhao Wanxi had transferred the money to him yesterday, he had no reason to accept it. At most, that money was just being kept with him temporarily.

Jiang Xiaohan felt awkward.

He seemed to have gotten a bit carried away.

However, Jiang Xiaohan put on a straight face and solemnly declared, "One you is something I can still afford to support!"

When Jiang Xiaohan said this, he wasn't just putting on a brave face to impress.

His novel *The Sentimental Swordsman, Ruthless Sword* had been published on the Nanfeng Chinese Network for a while now, and the accumulated royalties over this period were quite substantial. Jiang Xiaohan wouldn't dare claim he'd get super rich from it, but supporting Zhao Wanxi alone was more than enough, even if she could eat a lot.

"Oh! Then go ahead and support me!"

Zhao Wanxi replied indifferently, then lowered her head to eat again.

The corner of Jiang Xiaohan's mouth twitched.

Just like that?

Shouldn't she be slightly moved and offer some kind of reward to show her appreciation?

Faced with Zhao Wanxi's such calm reaction, Jiang Xiaohan felt a toothache coming on.

Such a big deal, and you just agreed to it so casually?

Could you at least have some sense of ceremony?

I have to admit, this is so Zhao Wanxi.

Her thought process was truly unique.

Jiang Xiaohan just accepted his fate.

Who told him to find this kind of girlfriend?

Wang Ze, having been showered with another wave of dog food by Jiang Xiaohan, couldn't take it anymore. He hastily shoveled down a couple of mouthfuls of rice and slipped away directly.

Here...

He couldn't stay for even another second.

Damn it!

Someone's going to die!

Watching Wang Ze flee in a panic, Jiang Xiaohan couldn't help but laugh.

Next.

From Zhao Wanxi's own words, Jiang Xiaohan finally understood why Zhao Wanxi had told him she had no money as soon as she walked over earlier. It turned out that after transferring all her money to him yesterday, she didn't even have money left to buy lunch today.

Regarding this, Jiang Xiaohan was speechless.

For some reason, Zhao Wanxi, who usually exuded an aura of aloofness, currently appeared, in Jiang Xiaohan's eyes, inexplicably foolish yet adorable.

After lunch, Jiang Xiaohan took Zhao Wanxi for a couple of strolls nearby, and then, after the peak dining hour of noon had passed, they headed back.

Jiang Xiaohan hadn't forgotten how the cafeteria aunties had helped his girlfriend out at noon, so he deliberately brought Zhao Wanxi back to thank them.

There weren't many people eating in the cafeteria anymore, and the aunties weren't as busy. Seeing Jiang Xiaohan specially bringing his little girlfriend over, they were thrilled beyond measure and showered Zhao Wanxi with endless praises.

Clearly, they were extremely satisfied with the girlfriend Jiang Xiaohan had found.

Zhao Wanxi, who was being frantically complimented, stood quietly to the side, lowering her head in embarrassment. Watching Jiang Xiaohan chatting naturally and effortlessly with the aunties, Zhao Wanxi suddenly realized she was discovering a different side of him that she had never seen before.

A bit special.

After thanking the aunties and chatting with them for a while, Jiang Xiaohan left with Zhao Wanxi.

This time, aside from expressing gratitude for how they had looked after Zhao Wanxi during this period, Jiang Xiaohan also had the intention of formally introducing Zhao Wanxi as his girlfriend to them.

Previously, Zhao Wanxi wasn't his girlfriend yet, so Jiang Xiaohan hadn't had a good reason to introduce her, but now he didn't have that concern anymore.

Zhao Wanxi couldn't help feeling a bit curious about the relationship between Jiang Xiaohan and the cafeteria aunties. Such a situation wasn't just something she had never witnessed; she hadn't even heard of it before.

However, Zhao Wanxi didn't ask, because Jiang Xiaohan brought it up himself.

Yet Jiang Xiaohan himself couldn't really explain much either. It was just that back during the military training when he first entered high school, whenever he got bored, he would run over to chat with these aunties. As time passed, they gradually grew familiar with each other, and their relationship naturally became good.

From Jiang Xiaohan's perspective, these aunties were also very easy to get along with, chatting with them was very relaxing, and he often heard a lot of school secrets from them that nobody else knew.

Back then, Jiang Xiaohan had been more than happy to chat idly with these aunties.

Listening to Jiang Xiaohan's account, it didn't seem like anything special, but Zhao Wanxi knew that not everyone could pull this off.

Some people were perhaps just naturally liked by others.

What puzzled Zhao Wanxi, however, was that she didn't even think Jiang Xiaohan was all that great, so why did even she fall for him?

Perhaps...

She had just been tricked!

Zhao Wanxi remained speechless, then followed a certain big swindler back to the classroom together.

As the afternoon passed, it was time for school to end.

Wang Ze, who usually always waited to leave with Jiang Xiaohan, slipped away ahead of time.

He couldn't take any more blows!

The trauma from noon was so severe that he hadn't fully recovered yet; he needed some peace and quiet alone and couldn't endure any more heavy hits.

The sweet critical strikes from Jiang Xiaohan and Zhao Wanxi were simply too much to bear.

Soon, the people in the classroom left one after another.

"Aren't you leaving yet?"

Jiang Xiaohan asked, looking at Zhao Wanxi, who was still working on a worksheet.

"I haven't finished yet, you go on ahead!"

Zhao Wanxi replied in a low voice, without even raising her head.

However, hearing Zhao Wanxi's words, Jiang Xiaohan couldn't help but feel suspicious.

Usually after school in the afternoon, Zhao Wanxi would occasionally stay behind for a little while to do her homework, and today was no exception.

Initially, Jiang Xiaohan hadn't paid much attention, but when he looked closer, he was left speechless.

From start to finish, Zhao Wanxi kept circling around a single question on the worksheet, working on it for a long time without getting an answer, and her working steps were an absolute mess.

What was even more crucial was that Zhao Wanxi clearly knew the knowledge point required for this question, yet she had managed to answer it like this.

Thus, it was impossible for Jiang Xiaohan not to be suspicious.

Seeing her casual and unconcerned demeanor, it was obvious she was deliberately stalling for time, and she was even rushing him to leave first. Even if Jiang Xiaohan were slow-witted, he would still be able to sense that something was wrong.

The biggest issue lay in the fact that Zhao Wanxi was telling him to leave first.

If she hadn't urged him, Jiang Xiaohan might not have thought so much into it.

Yet during this period, they had always walked home together. Even if Zhao Wanxi left a bit later, Jiang Xiaohan would wait for her; there had never been a time when he left first. This had almost become an unspoken tacit understanding between the two of them.

"Are you scared, by any chance?"

Looking at Zhao Wanxi, Jiang Xiaohan couldn't help guessing.

"Scared of what?"

Zhao Wanxi stopped her pen, looking up with an expression that seemed somewhat puzzled.

Yet the moment he saw her feigned expression of confusion, Jiang Xiaohan smiled.

He had basically figured out why Zhao Wanxi was acting so out of character.

She had been completely normal the entire day, but as soon as afternoon dismissal arrived, Zhao Wanxi became strange.

Why was she pretending to work on the worksheet, stalling for time and refusing to walk back with him?

Even.

Jiang Xiaohan guessed that Zhao Wanxi, who had already joined his household, probably didn't want to go to his house for dinner for the first time tonight.

There was only one reason, and Jiang Xiaohan voiced it aloud.

"An ugly daughter-in-law is afraid of meeting her parents-in-law, huh!"

Upon hearing this, and seeing the playful smile on Jiang Xiaohan's face, Zhao Wanxi instantly fumed and retorted: "You're the ugly one!"
