The Random Pa.s.serby I Married Is The Richest Man! Chapter 7 Part 3: The drama in his blood This meal cost them over 200 yuan. Bai Zhen Zhen forked out the money from her pocket. In order to appear magnanimous, she directly gave 300 yuan: "You can keep the change!"
Although the show was acted well enough, in the end, when the boss and the secretary went out to have a meal, he still let his boss personally pay for the meal. This was inexcusable. Therefore, Bai Zhen Zhen and Huo Xiang stepped out of the store under Jiang Muyu"s scornful eyes.
On the way back, Huo Xiang apologized to Bai Zhen Zhen: "Zhen Zhen, I"m so sorry ah! I didn"t have any money in my pocket, if I had any, I would have definitely not allowed you to pay the bill personally…"
"It"s okay, you really were already very awesome." Bai Zhen Zhen chuckled, "I wasn"t expecting it, did you graduate from an acting school?"
Huo Xiang replied seriously: "It"s all self-taught, you can call it a natural talent." After a pause, he asked tentatively: "However, looking at you, that young girl was mocking you sarcastically, but you didn"t get even a bit angry?"
"It"s not that I wasn"t angry, it"s just that I was too lazy." Bai Zhen Zhen sighed, "If I were to get angry just with this, I would end up dying of anger…. Ay, forget it, even if I don"t offend her, I still can"t avoid it!"
Huo Xiang frowned: "Why? What"s the issue between you two?"
"If it isn"t because of her older brother!" Bai Zhen Zhen roasted without thinking, "that Jiang Muyu is an orphan adopted by the Jiang family. She doesn"t have a blood relationship with her brother, and she actually has been secretly in love with her older brother since childhood. Her life"s wish is to marry her older brother! Unfortunately, during senior high school, I had an ambiguous relationship with her older brother. Her brother is also stupid, he shared everything with this younger sister and as a result, Jiang Muyu started to hate and be jealous of me…"
"But didn"t you meet for the first time?" Huo Xiang was very curious, "These things, that Mr. Jiang doesn"t know, so how did you know?"
Bai Zhen Zhen pursed her lips. Darn, her mind was unfocused due to the book"s dog blood plot, and she unexpectedly let slip such a big secret!
"I have superpowers." Bai Zhen Zhen smashed an already broken jar1, pretending to be mysterious, "I can clearly understand what everyone thinks in their heart."
Huo Xiang stared blankly: "Really?!"
After asking, he subconsciously distanced himself a bit from Bai Zhen Zhen.
Bai Zhen Zhen looked at him suspiciously: "What"s with your reaction? Could it be that you"re hiding something from me?!"
Huo Xiang did not deny: "Who doesn"t carry a little secret in their heart ah…"
Bai Zhen Zhen laughed involuntarily. He really believed it?! In the end, did he have a problem in his brains or not ah?!
"Anyway, a moment ago I could see that you have the gift of gab. Presumably, your mind should work pretty fast. I happen to have a problem, can you give me some ideas?"
Huo Xiang agreed enthusiastically: "Okay ah, you say."
Bai Zhen Zhen said: "I have a friend who has several pursuers, but she doesn"t like them. However, no matter what she does, those people are not willing to give up, even more, they always think of every possible way to appear in front of her. You say, what should she do?"
—System: "The typical "It"s not me, but I have a friend that…""
—Bai Zhen Zhen: "Where did you come from???"
"Very simple, get married ah!" Huo Xiang said.
"Get married?" Bai Zhen Zhen"s eyes widened.
Huo Xiang"s expression was genuine: "Yes ah, get married. As long as your friend is married to someone, no matter how those people pursue her, it will all be futile. Moreover, if they dare to wreck her marriage, she can directly call the police. After all, marriage is protected by law." (T/N: is it?)
"But she doesn"t have anyone she likes ah! Get married to whom?"
"It"s not so simple to marry just anyone, nowadays many people divorce to obtain the house! Isn"t it just to find a friend that can do her a favor or sign an agreement!"
Bai Zhen Zhen suddenly felt everything became clear at once. She looked up at the sky and said: "It"s not early anymore, let"s hurry back."
"Ok." Huo Xiang"s voice was crisp.
Yet the corner of his mouth rose with a meaningful smile.
—Huo Xiang: "System, report the mission"s progress."
—System: "The main mission is 9% completed, the countdown for the side quest is 6 days."
The net has been laid, just need for the fish to swim right into it then pull!
… the other day I randomly found a 4-koma ‘This croc will die in 100 days", a slice of life of, as the t.i.tle says, a croc that will die in 100 days (without him knowing). Although it"s nothing special, you kinda grow fond of him… there"s only 2 days left for him to die, I"m kinda nervous about it now >.

1: Smashing an already broken jar – meaning that since the jar is already broken, even if it"s smashed again, it"s still a broken jar, so there"s no need to cherish it. It"s used to describe a situation where after suffering setbacks, instead of amending the situation, just let it be.
