All men named Chen Xiao are scumbags
Along the Qin River, the lights were dazzling, and tourists were like a weaving tapestry, filled with a strong sense of market life.
Chen Xiao was clearly very familiar with all of this.
But Lu Xuanyi was different.
Before this, the people around her would never have recommended her to such a place.
Because there were too many people, and if any danger occurred, no one would be able to explain themselves well.
These people, for the sake of making their own work easier, tried every possible way to prevent Lu Xuanyi from going to crowded or complex environments.
So this was her first time seeing the lively scene on the ancient street, and her expression was somewhat surprised.
Before meeting Lu Xuanyi, Chen Xiao had imagined her appearance.
Generally, rich girls have good genes, so their looks should not be bad.
But he didn't expect her to be so exquisite and beautiful; Lu Xuanyi was like a Barbie doll that didn't eat human food.
Her large eyes were clear and bright, without the slightest impurity.
Her figure was graceful, soft, and delicate.
She was exactly like the carefully nurtured princesses in fairy tales.
Although Yan Bingqin was rich and beautiful, she had participated in family competition since childhood and had acquired a lot of worldly characteristics.
However, Lu Xuanyi, from her appearance, gave the impression of being as pure as a blank sheet of paper.
Chen Xiao finally understood why she could lend out a private jet so casually.
This girl… she must be very easy to fool, right?
It's just… that Uncle Fu, and a group of bodyguards and nannies, why were they staring at me with such vigilant eyes, as if I were a thief?
Are they sick?
“Ahem… Hello, I’m Chen Xiao.”
Lu Xuanyi nodded slightly, “Hello, my name is Lu Xuanyi, are you going to treat me to dinner here?”
Her exquisite small face was full of anticipation.
But Uncle Fu and the others had grim expressions, looking at Chen Xiao with a warning.
Chen Xiao also got annoyed, the more you don't want me to, the more I will do it!
“Yes, this place is a lot of fun, and there’s a lot of good food too.”
Lu Xuanyi's eyes seemed to sparkle with stars; she had no guard against others whatsoever.
“Wow, really? Can you take me there then?”
“My pleasure.”
Uncle Fu sighed and waved his hand helplessly; a dozen bodyguards immediately dispersed to various parts of the ancient street, subtly guarding Lu Xuanyi in the center.
If this little princess even got a scratch, her dad would be heartbroken when she returned.
Chen Xiao walked with Lu Xuanyi, and her beauty attracted countless gazes.
These people might never have seen a girl so exquisitely beautiful.
And Lu Xuanyi, apparently, didn't notice, or perhaps she was already accustomed to others' gazes.
However, though she looked like a fairy, she behaved like a country bumpkin, full of curiosity about everything.
Along the way, she asked Chen Xiao countless common-sense questions.
Chen Xiao was also patient and satisfied all her curiosities.
They had been chatting happily all along, but suddenly Lu Xuanyi stopped.
She sniffed with her cute little nose, and her face turned a little pale.
“Chen, Chen Xiao, it smells so bad…”
Chen Xiao was startled, sniffed, “Oh, that’s the smell of stinky tofu, haven’t you had it?”
Lu Xuanyi shook her head, “I haven't spent much time in the country, and although I haven't eaten it, I've heard of it.”
Chen Xiao smiled, “Then… do you want to try it?”
Lu Xuanyi was curious, but her pretty face was full of refusal.
No other reason, just because of the smell…
“No, maybe not?”
“…” Chen Xiao.
“Xuanyi, think about it, there’s a kind of delicious food in this world that you’ve never tasted. Wouldn’t that be a great regret?”
Lu Xuanyi pinched her nose and thought for a moment, “That sounds very reasonable, but is it really delicious?”
“Of course. But… you can’t smell it, you have to eat it to know.” Chen Xiao patiently coaxed.
For some reason, he particularly wanted to see what this fairy would look like after being pulled into the mortal world.
Lu Xuanyi's small face was still conflicted, so Chen Xiao went directly to buy a portion and brought it back.
Uncle Fu and the others' faces turned green, but they didn't dare to step forward and disturb her, otherwise, if the young lady became unhappy, everyone would have a hard time.
“Just try it.”
Lu Xuanyi hesitated a little.
“Alright then, I’ll eat it first to show you.”
Chen Xiao forked a piece and put it into his mouth, his face full of enjoyment.
Lu Xuanyi was even more tempted, “Is it really that delicious?”
Chen Xiao didn't answer and forked another piece.
There weren't many pieces of stinky tofu to begin with, and he was about to finish it.
Lu Xuanyi finally made up her mind, “How about… give, give me a taste.”
Chen Xiao was delighted in his heart, forked a piece and brought it to her mouth, “Come, open your mouth.”
Lu Xuanyi steeled herself, closed her eyes, and opened her mouth. When Chen Xiao put it in.
She immediately felt something unusual.
Hard on the outside, soft on the inside.
With a slight bite, juice burst out from within.
The fragrance lingered on her lips and teeth.
Lu Xuanyi's tense brows relaxed, and her face was full of enjoyment.
“Ah~~”
“So, so delicious!”
“…” Chen Xiao.
You really haven’t eaten anything good either…
Lu Xuanyi ate another piece, her cute little face puffed up, and her eyes were full of happiness.
Chen Xiao sighed slightly; he was actually quite envious of Lu Xuanyi, born into a wealthy family yet able to maintain her innocence; her happiness was simple yet expensive.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you to try grilled squid, luosifen, and…”
Tonight, Chen Xiao broke through Lu Xuanyi’s bottom lines one after another.
Looking at the cumin and chili powder that the uncle sprinkled on the squid with his bare hands, Lu Xuanyi was extremely resistant in her heart, but in the end, she couldn't resist the tempting smell.
Smelling the luosifen, which had an even stronger odor than stinky tofu, Lu Xuanyi almost threw up.
Finally, she ate it and exclaimed how enjoyable it was, if she hadn’t been so full, she would have wanted to order another bowl like Chen Xiao, banging on the table.
After nearly two hours of strolling, the two finally chartered a cruise ship to enjoy the neon lights along the Qin River.
Only then did Chen Xiao take out his watch, “Xuanyi, thank you for lending me the plane. This is a small token of my appreciation, please accept it.”
Lu Xuanyi was startled, then smiled brightly, “Okay, I’ll accept it. I had a very happy night, and I also want to thank you.”
“You’re welcome. If you come to Jinning again, you can always find me. I know a few other fun places.”
“Really? Thank you.”
...
The two chatted casually while enjoying the dreamlike night view.
Towards the end of their conversation, Chen Xiao noticed a hint of sadness on Lu Xuanyi's originally happy face.
He couldn't help but wonder, do princesses also have worries?
“What’s wrong?” Chen Xiao asked.
Lu Xuanyi sighed, “My mother almost got into danger trying to find me a boyfriend.”
“…” Chen Xiao.
“It can’t be that serious, finding a boyfriend… what kind of danger is there?”
“Sigh, they drove to Tibet and encountered a landslide. It took a lot of effort to escape the danger. They only told me today. I must criticize them severely when I go back tomorrow.”
Self-driving to Tibet?
Landslide?
Lu Xuanyi?
Lu Xingchen?
Chen Xiao was stunned.
Holy crap!
And that elegant Aunt Tian Shuman, who always wanted to introduce her daughter.
Chen Xiao almost instantly confirmed that Lu Xuanyi was their daughter!
“Chen Xiao, what’s wrong?” Seeing his change in expression, Lu Xuanyi asked worriedly.
“Uh…”
“This matter… how should I put it?”
“When the landslide happened, I was with your parents…”
Lu Xuanyi froze, her clear, delicate mouth slightly agape, her face filled with disbelief.
Chen Xiao continued, “Your father is Lu Xingchen and your mother is Tian Shuman, right? If you don’t believe me, you can call them.”
Lu Xuanyi recovered, took out her phone, and dialed.
“Hello? Dad? Do you know Chen Xiao?”
Lu Xingchen, seeing his precious daughter's call, answered with joy in his heart, but then heard his daughter ask about Chen Xiao!
His face immediately darkened, “No, I don’t! Why are you asking about him? Xuanyi, let me tell you, anyone named Chen Xiao is a scumbag, you must not have any dealings with him…”
