Tangling with the Western Commander

Chapter 203: Chapter 200: Brother Xian Causes Trouble!

The moment the words were spoken, the air suddenly stilled for an instant.

Wen Xian’s eyes squinted slightly as she looked at her deeply with furrowed brows.

Fang Zhi, sensing the tense atmosphere, pulled a light smile at the corner of her lips and chuckled, “Miss Wen, don’t misunderstand, I didn’t mean anything else. I just think you are so beautiful and have a nice figure that probably every girl would feel insecure.”

“What does that have to do with you?”

Wen Xian lightly pressed her tongue against her upper palate and laughed, her eyes harboring a few more layers of meaning when she looked at her again.

She wasn’t foolish. Everyone was an adult and knew what should and shouldn’t be said.

If it made the other person uncomfortable, it was intentional.

Upon hearing this, Fang Zhi’s face froze for a moment, and she eventually responded, “It has nothing to do with me, but I feel somewhat sorry for Captain Lu’s girlfriend…”

She suddenly stopped speaking, but the implication was clear.

Unexpectedly, as she finished speaking—

“No, Miss Fang, what are you talking about? The way you phrase it, it seems like you think my Xianxian could be involved with a bodyguard or something. Isn’t that nonsense? With a handsome, suave man like me around, how could she be interested in a bodyguard?”

Huo Qi was particularly dissatisfied with her statement.

Could it be that he was inferior to a bodyguard? What a joke!

“I…”

Her lips faltered.

“Alright, Miss Fang, I apologize for the misunderstanding earlier. I’m old and made a mistake. Captain Lu has a girlfriend, and they are very much in love. The person I wanted to recommend was someone else.”

Old Li analyzed everything and cut in immediately.

At these words, Fang Zhi: “…”

Her eyelashes fluttered slightly, her face turned somewhat pale, and finally, she took a deep breath, forcing a smile, “Thank you, Uncle Li, I understand, but please, don’t bother about match-making for me anymore.”

Lu Xiao, who had been silent, looked up and spoke, “I won’t let down my girlfriend, and Miss Fang needn’t bother either.”

Fang Zhi: “…”

Listening to his words, her face flushed red and then paled; what more could she say?

She just didn’t expect that these two were such people; calculating behind their girlfriend’s back and then speaking so righteously here.@@novelbin@@

Meanwhile.

Huo Qi exclaimed, “Xianxian, I’m going to stay here to take care of you, hurry up and prepare a room for me.”

As he spoke, he walked toward the compound. Looking around at the surroundings, he complained disdainfully, “Why didn’t you find a comfortable guesthouse for your recuperation? This place, it’s like a hostel.”

Listening to him, Wen Xian kicked him ungraciously, “Why are you so fussy? If you can stay, then stay; if not, get lost. Also, the room costs 3000 RMB a day. Do you pay daily or monthly?”

Huo Qi: “…”

The rich second-generation Huo Qi was sharply ripped off, to the point that even Old Li felt embarrassed. However, the money was just right to subsidize their compound.

Presently.

Huo Qi followed inside, handing over his clothes and phone to Wen Xian, saying he needed to use the restroom first.

“Are you really letting him stay?”

Lu Xiao’s expression grew dark.

Wen Xian shook her head helplessly, “Otherwise, he won’t give up easily. It’s better to keep an eye on him here, and incidentally, have him chip in to precisely support our poverty alleviation efforts.”

That was what she said, but she still wondered, how could she divert this guy’s attention away from herself?

At that moment, Huo Qi’s phone vibrated.

Wen Xian looked down to see a WeChat message on his phone from the contact named: Gentle Breeze.
