Chapter 1571: The Boyfriend Has Been Targeted

~7 min read 1,334 words

Xu Zixin could not stand Jiang Chenghao protecting Xu Xiaoxiao.

Jealousy also clouded her mind, making her blurt out, "She has family but doesn't mention them; is she acting as if her family is all dead!"

Hmm...

After Xu Zixin finished speaking, she felt as if she had cursed herself...

Father Xu was also dissatisfied with his daughter's performance and scolded in a low voice, "Zixin, what kind of nonsense are you spouting!"

After reprimanding Xu Zixin, Father Xu apologetically said to Jiang Chenghao, "This child has been spoiled by us; please don't mind it, Mr. Jiang."

"I don't mind; it has nothing to do with me anyway."

Having said that, Jiang Chenghao held Xu Xiaoxiao's hand and prepared to leave.

Xu Zixin did not want to lose contact with Jiang Chenghao and hurriedly asked, "Brother Cheng Hao, what should I do if I want to find you in the future? Could you leave me your contact information, please?"

Jiang Chenghao readily handed over a business card.

Xu Zixin hurriedly took it with both hands, as if she had gained a precious treasure.

Only...

Why was the name on the business card not Jiang Chenghao?

Just as Xu Zixin was suspicious, Jiang Chenghao said unhurriedly, "This is my assistant's number; you can find him if you have anything."

"Then what about you?"

"I am very busy, sorry."

After Jiang Chenghao finished speaking, he took Xu Xiaoxiao and left.

The two of them were chatting as they walked.

Moreover, Jiang Chenghao was especially gentle toward Xu Xiaoxiao, as if he were cherishing a rare treasure.

And when facing Xu Zixin?

Polite yet distant.

This contrast...

Made Xu Zixin want to die of anger!

She stomped her feet in anger: "Why does Xu Xiaoxiao get all the good things!"

In Xu Zixin's impression, Xu Xiaoxiao had been a lucky person since she was a child.

Xu Xiaoxiao didn't even need to study much to get excellent grades.

She had many friends.

Teachers also praised her, and even always compared her to herself, asking why the honor student sister had such a failing student sister!

It was truly hateful!

And now, Xu Xiaoxiao had even found such an excellent boyfriend...

I'm afraid she will be able to walk sideways in the future!

No, Xu Xiaoxiao cannot have all the good things; Jiang Chenghao, is it? She must snatch him over!

Xu Zixin secretly vowed.

Father Xu suddenly spoke up: "Don't plan on things you shouldn't plan on."

Clearly, Father Xu saw through Xu Zixin's intentions, and furthermore, he did not approve of Xu Zixin's idea.

Xu Zixin was unconvinced.

Cheng Xueli stood on her daughter's side, rolled her eyes, and questioned: "Why can't my daughter have what Xu Xiaoxiao can have? Let me tell you, you cannot be biased!"

"I..."

"I think Dad is just biased; now that the older sister has hooked up with a rich boyfriend, he looks down on me in his heart!"

"If that's really the case, then daughter, Mom will take you away tomorrow! Oh, my poor daughter!"

The mother and daughter began to hold each other and cry.

Anyone who didn't know the situation would surely think this pair of mother and daughter had suffered quite a few grievances.

But in reality?

They were more greedy than the other, and they felt no shame in it.

Yet Father Xu could not stand his wife and daughter shedding tears and said anxiously, "Stop crying, oh my, you still don't know how I feel about you!"

Xu Zixin raised her red eyes and said with a firm tone, "If Father truly loves me, then help me get Xu Xiaoxiao's resources, and her boyfriend too!"

"This... resources can be discussed, but the boyfriend... can't you find another one?"

"No, I just like Jiang Chenghao! I am younger than Xu Xiaoxiao and prettier than her; if Jiang Chenghao has more contact with me, he will definitely fall for me!"

"But..."

"Oh, Husband, it's not easy for our daughter to like someone; you have to support her! Our daughter's happiness depends on you!"

Cheng Xueli had her eye on Jiang Chenghao's family background and also hoped he could be her son-in-law.

In order to make Father Xu agree, this mother and daughter took turns feeding him sweet talk.

Father Xu had no choice in the end but to surrender.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Xu Xiaoxiao did not yet know that this family had already set their sights on her boyfriend.

She sat in the car, feeling a bit exhausted, and murmured, "I've let you see something embarrassing."

"Silly, why tell me these things."

Jiang Chenghao sighed lightly, then said with great heartache, "It must be very hard for you to be with these so-called family members."

"It really is."

"But in the future, with me here, I won't let you be bullied."

Jiang Chenghao's promise gave one a great sense of security.

Xu Xiaoxiao turned her head, smiled at him, and then said, "They can no longer bully me; they only manage to disgust me from time to time, so you can rest easy."

"That won't do. Making my girlfriend unhappy is not allowed either. In any case, it's better to have less contact."

Xu Xiaoxiao wanted that too.

But the Xu Family had clearly come for Xu Xiaoxiao this time upon their return.

Want to avoid them? It was very difficult.

Xu Xiaoxiao sighed silently.

Jiang Chenghao then asked a question: "What do they want to do, coming back this time?"

"They saw the promotional video I filmed and assumed I had some resources in the entertainment industry, so they want me to introduce them to Xu Zixin."

"Your younger sister wants to enter the entertainment industry?"

"She is currently a minor model, mainly shooting advertisements."

Jiang Chenghao was silent for a moment, then asked, "Then do you intend to introduce resources to your younger sister?"

Xu Xiaoxiao laughed in spite of herself: "Where would I have resources from?"

"But I do."

Jiang Chenghao did not work in the entertainment industry, but he certainly had friends he knew; letting Xu Zixin shoot a few advertisements was not a problem.

Xu Xiaoxiao, however, stopped him without a second thought: "Don't ever let them know, otherwise they will be like bloodsuckers, clinging to you and impossible to shake off!"

Xu Xiaoxiao was serious.

And her anxious expression made Jiang Chenghao's heart ache.

He thought that the past Xu Xiaoxiao must have been bled dry by the Xu Family, which was why she still had lingering fears.

Jiang Chenghao was powerless to change what had already happened.

But the future...

He would not let the Xu Family take advantage of Xu Xiaoxiao again!

Jiang Chenghao clenched his fists, then adjusted his emotions and responded with a smile: "Alright, I understand."

Xu Xiaoxiao did not know Jiang Chenghao's plans.

But she felt uneasy and gave Jiang Chenghao a few more instructions.

Jiang Chenghao also responded very sincerely.

A small unpleasantness seemed to have passed just like that.

But everything was only "seemed."

In the room, Xu Xiaoxiao had just finished a phone call with her supervisor.

Her vacation was nearing its end, and she planned to gradually resume work after returning to the university.

The supervisor was also very considerate of Xu Xiaoxiao and directly halved her workload.

Once Xu Xiaoxiao returned to the university, she would only need to be responsible for professional courses and the projects that were previously unfinished.

Although the workload was reduced, Xu Xiaoxiao's requirements for her work would not be lowered.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Xiaoxiao began to make a work plan.

But she never expected...

The Xu Family arrived at her door carrying big bags and small bags!

Seeing these people, Xu Xiaoxiao felt a headache.

She suppressed the urge to rub her temples and asked, "How did you know I live here?"

Father Xu explained with a smile: "Me? I found out from the university where you work."
