"..."
It was comically impressive how that reckless girl managed to co up with such a shaless move.
Xu Fan, now wearing a defeated expression, handed over an invitation card.
"No money, but will this invitation serve as paynt for the debt?" he asked.
"Yeah, barely acceptable," ca the reluctant reply.
Although Xia Xiaodie sounded hesitant, her actions were anything but, as she swiftly snatched the invitation from him.
Clutching the invitation tightly, she dreamt about the upcoming social gathering where, with a bit of effort, she would surely obtain so design sketches from Gelangqiao.
By then, she would definitely be able to survive on her own rits!
"What are you doing!" she exclaid.
While she was indulging in her grand plans, suddenly, Xu Fan crouched beside her and scooped her up in a princess carry.
Once again held tightly in his embrace, Xia Xiaodie's cheeks turned a deep red, and she dared not move.
Watching her blush, Xu Fan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Your waist was broken by , your legs were broken by ; you surely can't walk on your own, can you?"
"..."
If you're going to play a role, you must play it thoroughly—even a spontaneous sche must honor the profession.
"You do have a point," she admitted grudgingly.
With a pout, Xia Xiaodie had no choice but to give up resisting.
After placing Xia Xiaodie in the passenger seat, Xu Fan got into the car himself.
Not sure if she hadn't had lunch, but now she started munching on so snacks in the car.
Noticing his gaze, Xia Xiaodie blushed slightly and said sowhat awkwardly, "Next ti I set up a sche for you, I'll make sure to deduct it from the inside."
You plan to do it again?
Xu Fan was speechless.
"I'm like the little match girl, utterly pitiful. What's wrong with scheming? Is it not allowed?" she asked.
Feeling a bit too shaless, Xia Xiaodie pitifully tried to look more miserable.
It wasn't completely an act; indeed, tis were hard, and she really was struggling.
Even now, she hadn't yet figured out how to fund the start of her shop with the drawings...
"If you were the little match girl, I might actually have a get-rich strategy to offer you," Xu Fan suddenly said.
While it might not have mattered to anyone else, Xia Xiaodie was genuinely interested at the mont!
After all, she was really in need of money!
"Go on, tell ! If it's really reliable, I'll even pay you back for the snacks..." she said.
Xu Fan gave her a look and replied, "Well, first find a little dark room, walk in, and strip naked."
"Then invite in, light a match for a hundred bucks a pop. By the ti I'm done lighting one after another, zizz, little sister Xiaodie, you're going to strike it rich."
This guy, always so quick to start his engine. At that mont, Xia Xiaodie, holding a snack pack, gave Xu Fan a dry chuckle.
Can't be bothered with you.
Any more delays might an missing the social gathering. Xu Fan then activated the navigation and drove towards the destination.
Sure enough, it wasn't long before Xu Fan drove to the venue of the social function.
Shangri-La Hotel.
The main goal for today was to accompany Xia Xiaodie to the wine party and then help her seize the design drawings brought by Gelangqiao if possible.
As the car ca to a stop, Xu Fan got out and professionally started doing what a driver should do.
He opened the car door for Xia Xiaodie and promptly shielded her from bumping her head with one hand, then held her delicate, boneless hand to assist her out of the car.
It must be said that Xu Fan acted very gentlemanly. Xia Xiaodie glanced at him, just as she was about to speak, she heard footsteps approaching from nearby.
"Xiaodie?"
Not far away, a handso guy with dyed blond hair and a chiseled face jogged over.
"Zhou Zidong?"
Apparently not having a good impression of the newcor, Xia Xiaodie's face turned sour as she saw him jogging over.
"To think, Xiaodie, you actually ca."
The other party was totally unaffected by her displeasure, forcing Xia Xiaodie to squeeze out a reluctant smile.
Zhou Zidong—it was evident that he was from the Zhou Family.
The wine party was hosted by his family.
Previously due to matters concerning the wine party, she had asked for his help, but he had made the unreasonable demand that she beco his girlfriend.
Xia Xiaodie couldn't possibly compromise over such an issue and naturally refused his request.
Attending the wine party ant she would inevitably encounter him, but Xia Xiaodie had not expected it to be so soon.
Having not yet seen Gelangqiao, Xia Xiaodie did not want her relationship with Zhou Zidong to beco too strained.
Now smiling, she turned to Xu Fan to introduce him, "Xu Fan, this is Zhou Zidong, he was my senior at Fudan."
After briefly introducing Zhou Zidong to Xu Fan, Xia Xiaodie was ready to introduce Xu Fan to Zhou Zidong.
"Senior Zhou, this is…"
But before Xia Xiaodie could finish speaking, Zhou Zidong cut her off with a laugh.
Zhou Zidong seed a bit embarrassed as he said with a bitter smile, "Xiaodie, why are you introducing to a driver… you know, with my status, there's no possibility of ever associating with him in my lifeti."
"…"
Xia Xiaodie was stunned, perhaps he had seen Xu Fan helping her out of the car just now.
Zhou Zidong made it clear, saying between the lines, Xu Fan and he were worlds apart.
That statent was rather hurtful…
"Xiaodie, you know? You're just too kind-hearted."
"What… what do you an?"
Xia Xiaodie looked dazedly at Zhou Zidong.
Zhou Zidong smiled subtly, "I know you see him as your driver and therefore want him to et so prominent people to help him get ahead, but you must understand, servants, they can't really jump out of their coop just by eting a few celebrities, ha ha, a servant will always be a servant."
Zhou Zidong smiled very courteously, not sensing anything wrong in his words, as he went on to say, "You might not believe it, but just a while ago, I spoke a few extra words with one of my servants and this guy actually started believing we were good friends! Can you believe what he did next?"
"He actually stole two gold utensils from my villa! All because he wanted to pay for his child's dical bills. Can you believe that? That's theft, such a shaful act! This is why you shouldn't be too nice to servants."
As Zhou Zidong spoke, his gaze never strayed from Xu Fan.
Clearly, all his words were ant for Xu Fan to hear.
A poor driver wanting to marry a princess, wouldn't it be ridiculous if I didn't give him a proper lesson?
