Chapter 442

"Xueru, this is your favorite phoenix-patterned mandarin duck bracelet!"

Xu Huirong was shocked.

"Are you really willing to part with it?"

Wan Ping'an smiled.

"What other choice do I have if I'm not willing?"

Chen Xueru looked at Wan Ping'an pitifully.

"Alright! I'll help you deal with the One-Eyed Dragon!"

Wan Ping'an put the bracelets away.

Chen Xueru was very beautiful, and her pitiful expression easily aroused pity, but he said again, he was absolutely not a sycophant!

He would definitely collect the reward he was owed!

"Before your deadline with the One-Eyed Dragon, notify me; I'm not in the Sihe Academy, I'm at the six-mu plot, you'll definitely be able to find me!"

After Wan Ping'an finished speaking, he turned and left the small tavern.

"Sigh, Wan Ping'an is too unromantic!"

Xu Huirong sighed.

"He's not unromantic; he's just too smart, his willpower is too strong, and he's different from other men."

Chen Xueru sighed.

She saw the desire in Wan Ping'an's eyes.

Wan Ping'an had thoughts about her, very strong thoughts.

But Wan Ping'an's self-control was too strong; he knew what could be done and what couldn't, and he had his own principles and bottom line.

"He really is a terrifying man!"

Xu Huirong sighed.

What kind of man is the most terrifying?

One who cannot be seen through and is difficult to control!

"Xueru, you gave him the bracelets; do you think he can solve the problem?"

Xu Huirong was still a bit worried about her good friend.

If the problem couldn't be solved, Chen Xueru would be miserable; not only would the silk shop be lost, but the bracelets would be gone too.

What the One-Eyed Dragon had his eyes on wasn't just the silk shop, but Chen Xueru herself!

"He can!"

"The golden rice he developed was promoted together with Director Wang of the Nongke Academy, and Director Wang thinks very highly of him."

"Even if he couldn't solve the problem, as long as he said a word to Director Wang, and Director Wang made a call, would the One-Eyed Dragon have any way out?"

"Like the One-Eyed Dragon, these small thugs can only make things difficult for us ordinary people."

Chen Xueru sighed.

Xu Huirong nodded; it made sense; as long as there was a little background, people like the One-Eyed Dragon wouldn't dare to come and cause trouble.

"Xueru, I actually have a suggestion; if you become a family with Wan Ping'an, would anyone dare to find trouble with you?"

The two were silent for a moment.

Xu Huirong blurted out.

"Huirong, did you take a fancy to Wan Ping'an and are afraid I'll compete with you?"

Chen Xueru glared at Xu Huirong.

She didn't notice that when she said Xu Huirong took a fancy to Wan Ping'an, Xu Huirong's face turned slightly red, and she deliberately changed the subject to talk about something else.

Sihe Academy.

Jia Zhangshi returned from the toilet and heard a group of older women in the front courtyard chatting, some from the Sihe Academy and some from the neighboring courtyard.
