Chapter 1237: 304: Go back to where you came from!_4

Wu Chenjun slightly furrowed his brows. He was going on a date with Shangguan Xi; what was the meaning of bringing an outsider along?

“Grandma, this might be a bit inconvenient, why don’t we let Sister Lin accompany her?”

Mrs. Wu said, “Sister Lin is still an outsider after all, and I don’t feel comfortable entrusting Xiaomei to her! Xiaomei is just like your sister, what’s wrong with her following her brother and sister-in-law to watch a movie?” Actually, Mrs. Wu did this on purpose because she knew Wu Chenjun’s character all too well. If Wu Chenjun knew about the surrogate child arrangement, he would definitely disagree, and he might even make a big fuss.

Therefore, the best approach now was to let Cao Xiaomei get close to Wu Chenjun on her own.

Cao Xiaomei was quite attractive and several years younger than Shangguan Xi. Just a few more encounters, and Wu Chenjun was bound to take an interest in her.

Because all men have their weaknesses.

Wu Chenjun’s brows were tightly knit, feeling that Mrs. Wu was being somewhat unreasonable.

Cao Xiaomei said, “I also feel it’s quite inconvenient to go out with Brother Chen Jun and his wife. Don’t worry, Grandma, I can go out by myself, and I definitely won’t get lost.”

She was advancing by retreating.

Only by continually showing weakness in front of Shangguan Xi and Wu Chenjun would they let down their guard against her.

Shangguan Xi said with a smile, “Why don’t you come along with us then? One more person is just one more movie ticket.”

Cao Xiaomei hesitated, looking towards Wu Chenjun, “This… might not be a good idea?”

“Let’s go, it’s not a big deal,” Shangguan Xi said, linking arms with Cao Xiaomei.

Shangguan Xi had always been a kind girl, considering Cao Xiaomei like her own sister.

The duo date turned into a trio, making Wu Chenjun somewhat displeased, and he didn’t speak the entire way.

Cao Xiaomei sat in the back seat, hunching her shoulders, and said uneasily, “I’m sorry Brother Chen Jun, sister-in-law, did I, did I disturb you?”

Wu Chenjun remained silent, his emotions clearly displayed on his face.

Shangguan Xi said with a laugh, “It’s fine, it’s fine. That’s just how your Brother Chen Jun is, you don’t need to mind him.”

Cao Xiaomei nodded her head.

Before long, they arrived at the cinema.

Wu Chenjun lined up to buy movie tickets, while Cao Xiaomei and Shangguan Xi waited for him in place.

Cao Xiaomei initiated a conversation with Shangguan Xi, “Sister-in-law, I’m really envious of you.”

Shangguan Xi smiled, “What about me do you envy?”

Cao Xiaomei said, “You’re beautiful and highly educated, and with Brother Chen Jun, you are truly a perfect match!”

Shangguan Xi seemed to remember something, then asked, “Xiaomei, how old are you this year?”

“I’m twenty in nominal age,” Cao Xiaomei answered.

Shangguan Xi said, “Twenty is still an age for school, have you stopped attending?”

Cao Xiaomei shook her head, “Our family has many younger brothers and sisters, I didn’t even finish junior high.”

So what if she didn’t graduate junior high?

Even without a junior high diploma, she could still trample the highly educated Shangguan Xi underfoot in the future.

To her, Shangguan Xi was nothing more than a stepping stone to marry into a wealthy family.

Shangguan Xi continued, “Actually, education is quite important for girls, but society nowadays yields the best from every field, so you shouldn’t think too much about it.”

“Mhm,” Cao Xiaomei nodded.

After about five minutes or so, Wu Chenjun came over with the movie tickets.

Two hours later, the movie was over.

Wu Chenjun and Shangguan Xi drove back.

Cao Xiaomei sat in the back seat, still timid in appearance, but her heart was filled with extreme discontent.

Two hours out.

She didn’t get even a small chance to get close to Wu Chenjun!

When buying the movie tickets, Wu Chenjun actually got her a seat in the third row, while he and Shangguan Xi got the front row seats!

It was clear that he didn’t take her seriously at all!

Cao Xiaomei was furious, but she had no recourse and had to suppress all her discontent.

Half an hour later, the car stopped at the Wu Family villa’s entrance.

Cao Xiaomei opened the car door and got out, but Shangguan Xi showed no intention of getting out.

Curiously, Cao Xiaomei said, “Sister-in-law, why aren’t you and Brother Chen Jun getting out?”

Shangguan Xi said with a smile, “Chen Jun and I still have some things to take care of! You go ahead and go back!”

No sooner had she finished speaking than Wu Chenjun stepped on the gas, dust billowing, leaving Cao Xiaomei with only the rear view of a luxury car.

This is too much!

Cao Xiaomei felt like stomping her feet in anger, but she had to hold it in.
