~7 min read 1,322 words

"My goodness, he can find such a beautiful girlfriend? It's really unreasonable!"

Zhang Peng's eyes widened, and he muttered to himself in disbelief.

As soon as these words came out, a sharp gaze immediately glared over.

Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan also looked at him with playful smiles.

"Ahem!"

Zhang Peng coughed twice, very skillfully changing into a fawning, flattering smile, and said: "Jiajia, she is beautiful, but she's definitely not as beautiful as you, right? I meant Brother Hao isn't worthy of her!"

"How is he not worthy? The two of them look so compatible, you talk too much."

Tian Jiajia rolled her eyes in annoyance.

Zhang Peng laughed dryly and didn't speak.

"Brother Hao!"

Seeing the two walk closer, Qin Tian raised his arm and shouted.

Seeing him, Xu Hao brought his girlfriend over quickly with a smile.

"You guys are already here, sorry, sorry, I went to pick up my girlfriend from work, so I'm a bit late."

After apologizing first, Xu Hao introduced his girlfriend, and then introduced Qin Tian and the other four one by one.

His girlfriend's name was Li Hui, and she was a primary school Chinese teacher currently working at a primary school in Yucheng.

After getting to know each other, the two sat down.

The waiter brought the menu, and everyone first handed the menu to Li Hui to order.

"Brother Hao, tell us, how did you two meet?"

Qin Tian nudged his chin and asked on behalf of everyone with a smile.

Zhang Peng didn't even mention it, still wearing a look of disbelief.

Xia Nuannuan and Tian Jiajia were full of curiosity, looking at Xu Hao with shining eyes.

Li Hui looked at Xu Hao with a gentle smile and didn't rush to answer, lowering her head to select dishes on the menu.

"Didn't I tell you guys during the New Year? My family arranged a blind date, and I couldn't hold out anymore, so I went to meet her."

Xu Hao smiled and scratched his head.

Zhang Peng's mouth twitched slightly. He looked at Li Hui, then at Xu Hao, feeling a bit depressed.

Originally, the four of them were two pairs, and they could still bully Xu Hao, this single dog.

Now it was good, Xu Hao had given such a big surprise without a sound.

"Then what, then what?"

Xia Nuannuan took over the conversation and asked like a curious baby.

"Then it was unexpectedly compatible. Don't look at her as a teacher, she also plays League of Legends, and she plays quite well. Later, I occasionally invited her to play games together, and when we had time, we made appointments to eat and chat, and that's how we got together."

When Xu Hao said this, a happy smile appeared on his face.

Xia Nuannuan and Tian Jiajia looked at Li Hui, both wearing similar motherly smiles.

"Sister-in-law, how did you take a fancy to him?"

Zhang Peng interjected out of the blue.

"Zhang Peng!"

Tian Jiajia frowned and scolded.

"It's fine, it's fine."

Li Hui waved her hand with a smile and gently pushed the menu to Tian Jiajia, saying: "It should be the first time we met, I felt he was a very good person. He looks a bit sloppy, but he is very sincere in treating people, and he is also very interesting."

"As teachers, we won't easily judge a student's character through external appearances. I'm used to seeing the essence through the phenomenon. Xu Hao is still a very good person."

"Hehe..."

Hearing this, Xu Hao laughed foolishly.

"Sigh, it makes no sense!"

Zhang Peng couldn't help but mutter again.

"Zhang Peng, what did you say?"

Xu Hao didn't hear clearly and asked with a puzzled expression.

"Nothing."

Zhang Peng straightened his face and acted stupidly.

"Brother Hao, don't listen to his nonsense, you two are very compatible."

Qin Tian smiled and stabbed Zhang Peng.

"Zhang Peng, you kid!!"

Xu Hao glared at him.

Zhang Peng picked up his cup, lowered his head to drink tea, and pretended not to hear.

"Brother Hao, don't listen to him, you two are very compatible."

Tian Jiajia hurriedly said a word to help.

Xu Hao looked at her and curled his lips: "Forget it, for the sake of you, sister-in-law, I'm too lazy to bother with this kid."

Tian Jiajia breathed a sigh of relief, glared at Zhang Peng in annoyance, and warned him with her eyes to shut up and not talk.

At this time, everyone heard Xu Hao change the subject:

"However, Zhang Peng, although what you said was harsh, it wasn't wrong. I actually feel like I'm not worthy of Huihui. After all, I didn't even go to university, and she is a graduate of a 985 university and a teacher..."

"Xu Hao, why are you saying this again."

Li Hui frowned slightly at Xu Hao and interrupted his words.

"Alright, alright, I won't say it, I won't say it. My fault."

Xu Hao immediately smiled and apologized.

Seeing this scene, the four of Qin Tian were even happier for the two of them.

Including Zhang Peng, he was actually just being sharp-tongued, but he was actually blessing the two in his heart.

Soon, everyone finished ordering, ordered two basins of crayfish with different flavors, as well as various skewers, and ordered some beer and drinks.

After the waiter left with the order, everyone continued to chat.

After a portion of crayfish and drinks were just served, unexpectedly, Xu Hao said another shocking piece of news.

That was that he and Li Hui planned to get married by the end

This news gave the four of them quite a shock; they were all dumbfounded on the spot, staring at the two of them in a daze.

"No need to be so surprised, right? I'm already twenty-five, and my family is pushing me hard. Since I've met the right person, getting married is only natural, isn't it?"

Xu Hao said with a smile.

Li Hui, sitting beside him, said nothing, her smile filled with the taste of happiness.

"Nothing more to say, come on, let's all have a toast together! Congratulations to Brother Hao and Sister-in-law!"

Qin Tian picked up a bottle of beer directly, smiling as he looked around at everyone.

"Congratulations, congratulations."

Xia Nuannuan picked up a glass of fruit juice, offering her blessings with a bright smile.

"Congratulations Brother Hao, congratulations Sister-in-law. You must invite us to the wedding when the time comes!"

Tian Jiajia said with a beaming smile as she raised her glass.

"That's for sure. You all have to go when the time comes; I won't take no for an answer."

Xu Hao laughed heartily.

"Good heavens, Brother Hao, your progress is too fast! This surprise came so suddenly, my brain can't even keep up."

Zhang Peng wore a speechless expression.

"Less talk, come on, drink up!"

Xu Hao shouted loudly.

Beer, barbecue, crayfish, air conditioning, bamboo mats, and big watermelons—these are the essential little joys of summer in the south.

Added to the surprise brought by Xu Hao, everyone enjoyed this dinner to the fullest.

They ate from nearly five-thirty until eight o'clock in the evening, by which time the sky had turned completely dark.

Zhang Peng, having drunk a bit too much, fought with Xu Hao over who would pay the bill, while Qin Tian and the others didn't interfere, just sitting there watching them perform like a comedy duo.

In the end, Zhang Peng managed to keep the right to pay the bill today, pulling a few bills of renminbi from his pocket to hand to the boss, and waving his hand generously to say there was no need for change.

As a result, he received a death glare from Tian Jiajia, blaming him for being extravagant and wasting money.

The boss, seeing this, was sharp enough to secretly slip the change back to Tian Jiajia.
