Chapter 52: Did Zhang Xiaoli Actually Get Recognized by the System?

Near noon, Lin Dazhi drove the Cullinan, bringing his parents and Bai Weiwei, and finally arrived at the entrance of the restaurant.

From far away, Lin Dazhi saw Zhou Xiaojun standing at the entrance, head down and playing with his phone; beside him was a young girl wearing a camisole and hot pants, presumably Zhang Xiaoli, whom he had heard Zhou Yue mention but had never met.

Lin Dazhi found a parking space and parked the car; before he even got out, he saw the young girl pull Zhou Xiaojun and walk over quickly, and through the car window, he saw Zhang Xiaoli waving at him.

"Yo, this must be Zhou Xiaojun's partner. I heard Zhou Yue mention her once, I think her name is something like Lili. The young girl is quite pretty," Bai Weiwei said with a smile from the passenger seat.

"Zhang Xiaoli, alright, let's get out of the car," Lin Dazhi said, opening the car door and stepping out.

"Is this our brother-in-law?" After Lin Dazhi got out of the car, he saw Zhang Xiaoli turn back and ask Zhou Xiaojun with an excited expression.

Zhou Xiaojun nodded; his attitude toward Lin Dazhi could not be called enthusiastic, but when his gaze swept over the Cullinan behind Lin Dazhi, a look of envy and greed emerged.

"My sister and the others are waiting upstairs. Is this the new car you bought?" Zhou Xiaojun walked over and patted the car's hood.

"Mm, let's go upstairs," Lin Dazhi could see that Zhou Xiaojun liked the car; if it were in the past, he might have borrowed the keys to go out and show off, but now that he and Zhou Yue were divorced, he assumed this kid would be too embarrassed to ask.

Lin Dazhi did not expect that he had underestimated the thickness of Zhou Xiaojun's skin.

"Give me the keys, lend it to me for a spin," Zhou Xiaojun turned back and said to Lin Dazhi in a cavalier manner.

"It's noon, let's eat first," Lin Dazhi said with a smile.

Zhou Xiaojun hit a soft wall and was somewhat unwilling; in the gaze he cast at Lin Dazhi, besides envy, there was a bit more resentment.

"Hello brother-in-law, I'm Xiaojun's friend, my name is Zhang Xiaoli. Brother-in-law, you're really handsome. How tall are you? I think you're almost 1.9 meters, right?" Zhang Xiaoli came before Lin Dazhi and stood on her tiptoes to compare heights with him, but no matter how hard she tried, she only reached the height of Lin Dazhi's pectoral muscles.

Being this close, a scent unique to men wafted over, instantly making Zhang Xiaoli's expression somewhat intoxicated.

"This man is so tall and strong, so masculine," Zhang Xiaoli tilted her face up, sizing Lin Dazhi up, and just happened to meet his downward gaze, instantly feeling her little heart jump wildly!

"Not quite, but close enough. Hello Lili, I heard Zhou Yue mention you before, but I'm not your brother-in-law anymore, so you can't just call me that," Lin Dazhi said with a chuckle.

He could feel the affection and closeness Zhang Xiaoli was showing him, because the system had another notification at this moment: Zhang Xiaoli also met the criteria for hygiene products.

However, he certainly wouldn't provoke Zhang Xiaoli now; she was Zhou Xiaojun's girlfriend, and if he hit on her, the whole Zhou family would probably go crazy.

It wasn't that he was afraid of the Zhou family; to be honest, he and the Zhou family were no longer people of the same world. Although he had only just stepped into the world of the wealthy, Lin Dazhi could already faintly feel some changes, and this world was beginning to present a different side to him.

To put it bluntly, if he wanted to deal with the Zhou family, he wouldn't even need to do it himself; by spending a little money and finding someone to set a trap, he could easily make this family fall into the abyss.

But Lin Dazhi didn't want to do that. After all, besides the adulterous couple Zhou Yue and Liu Haibo, whom Lin Dazhi did not intend to let off, the others in the Zhou family were just a bit greedy and had a few crooked thoughts; they hadn't done anything unforgivable, so there was no need to drive them to their deaths.

But if they were blind and insisted on not recognizing the situation, opposing him and disgusting him, Lin Dazhi wouldn't mind letting them feel the power of money!

"Hee hee, then what should I call you? Brother Lin? Brother Dazhi?" Zhang Xiaoli was still chatting with Lin Dazhi there, but Zhou Xiaojun on the side couldn't watch anymore.

Damn it, his girlfriend hadn't been this active and enthusiastic with him in all the time they had been together, and now, having just met Lin Dazhi, she was being so proactive; where did that leave his face?

He wasn't stupid; he knew this woman Zhang Xiaoli was greedy for comfort, and seeing her so enthusiastic toward Lin Dazhi now, there was no need to ask—she was clearly after Lin Dazhi's money!

"Damn it! Once you remarry my sister, your house, car, and savings will all be mine! Let's see how arrogant you can be then!" Zhangxiaojun thought hatefully to himself.

The next moment, he strode forward and deliberately put his arm around Zhang Xiaoli's shoulder with force, wanting to pull her into his embrace.

"Hurry up, don't dawdle, everyone is waiting to eat!" Zhou Xiaojun deliberately raised his voice, wanting to show off a man's dominance in front of Lin Dazhi and assert his claim.

Unexpectedly, the moment his hand touched Zhang Xiaoli's shoulder, the latter immediately twisted her body violently and then glared at Zhou Xiaojun.

"What are you doing! Zhou Xiaojun, how many times have I told you? Talk if you want to talk, don't get handsy, I don't like it! Also, I'm not a casual woman; if you don't respect me again, we're done!" Zhang Xiaoli said sharply.

Her outburst left Zhou Xiaojun hitting a wall, and he had no way to do anything to Zhang Xiaoli in front of so many people, because Zhang Xiaoli was right—from the time they met until now, Zhang Xiaoli had never admitted to being his girlfriend, always emphasizing that the two were just friends.

"Alright, Xiaoli, it's a holiday, let it go. Xiaojun definitely didn't mean it. Let's go upstairs, the uncle and aunt are all waiting," just at this moment, Bai Weiwei took the initiative to walk over, linking arms with Zhang Xiaoli, and said with a smile.

Zhang Xiaoli had actually seen Bai Weiwei from the start and had been wanting to go over and talk to her, but Zhou Xiaojun had started trouble as soon as he came up, ruining all her plans.

Seeing Bai Weiwei take the initiative to greet her, she hurriedly seized the opportunity and said, "Mm, Sister Weiwei, I heard Xiaojun mention you, saying you're a great beauty. I've wanted to get to know you for a long time. Your skin is so good, what cosmetics do you usually use?"

"Don't listen to Xiaojun's nonsense, what kind of beauty am I? Lili, you're the pretty one. I just saw your eye makeup, it's especially beautiful. I heard you run a beauty salon, no wonder! Hey, where is your shop? Take me to see it sometime."

"Sure, no problem! I'll give you a free facial treatment then. Your skin base is too good; if you maintain it a bit more, you'll definitely be able to charm a whole crowd of men!"

"Giggle, Lili, you really know how to talk. Alright, just for that, I'll definitely have to top up a VIP membership at your shop!"

"Deal, then it's a promise!"

The two women walked hand in hand, and after some mutual commercial flattery, Zhang Xiaoli greeted Lin Dazhi's parents, and the group walked toward the restaurant, laughing and talking.

Zhou Xiaojun followed behind the group, unable to get a word in. He suddenly felt like an outsider at this moment, feeling very stifled, and followed them into the restaurant without saying a word.
