Gong Jue Chen didn’t care about An Jing’s reaction and turned to speak to Wang Youbao again, "Your name is Wang Youbao, right? You’re also quite good-looking, so from now on, we’re friends."
Wang Youbao: "..." Friends? Did I agree to this?
Gong Jue Chen shamelessly continued, "Youbao, if you know any pretty girls who aren’t promised to anyone yet, remember to introduce them to me. The good stuff shouldn’t flow into outsider’s fields, you know what I mean?"
Wang Youbao: "..." This guy seems a bit too familiar.
But Wang Youbao just silently bowed and politely said, "Master Gong, only my betrothed can call me ’Youbao,’ so I hope you won’t address me that way."
Gong Jue Chen immediately responded generously, "No problem, no problem, I don’t mind if someone else calls you that."
Wang Youbao: "..." I mind though! And my Wuyu would definitely mind too!
Hearing this, An Jing couldn’t help but laugh out loud, "Gong Jue Chen, are you planning to be completely shameless?"
Gong Jue Chen asked puzzledly, "Why do I need face? It’s not something I can eat or wear. I don’t even know what I look like if I don’t look in a mirror. All I need is for my future wife to have a pretty face, which will delight my eyes. It will even help me eat two more bowls of rice. Really, looking at a particularly pretty face really makes the meal more enjoyable. I never understood what ’a feast for the eyes’ meant until I realized I could eat two more bowls of rice whenever I saw a pretty girl. Then I understood."
An Jing: "..." Is ’a feast for the eyes’ really supposed to mean that?
Wang Youbao: "..." It’s the first time I’ve learned that’s what ’a feast for the eyes’ means.
"I remember the first time I saw Lanlan... pah, Lan Qing," Gong Jue Chen suddenly recalled the past. His face first lit up with longing, but when he remembered that Meng Lanqing was a man, and also his brother-in-law, his look of longing quickly vanished, replaced by a chill. "Forget it, I’ll still call him Lanlan. I’m used to it. But to prevent him from taking advantage of my sister’s favor and constantly hitting me because of it, I don’t call him that to his face. Now that I’m so smart and wise, it would be bad if he hit me silly."
Even Xiao Changyi, who was silently teaching An Yiyun how to sit, quietly turned around and sat with his back to Gong Jue Chen. Gong Jue Chen’s way of speaking was really too shameless! It made people itch with the urge to punch him!
Gong Jue Chen, oblivious, continued to lament, "Lanlan is really the most beautiful person I’ve seen. When I saw him at Wanhua Building, I was immediately struck by his beauty and ate three more bowls of rice."
An Jing: "..." He really took ’a feast for the eyes’ literally...
"What a pity, ahh..." Gong Jue Chen sighed deeply, full of regret, "he’s a man. But at least he didn’t slip away to someone else’s field; my sister took him in. It’s just that my sister is too cruel. Once she took him, my status as her brother was gone, and even my money became his."
An Jing chuckled, "If you hadn’t given your money to Se Se to manage, how could she have given it to Meng Lanqing to use?"
Gong Jue Chen covered his chest, looking up at the sky with a pained expression, "My master said that my sister and I should love each other dearly, whether I marry or she marries, we’re all family. But now... she’s hurt me too much. I’m like an outsider now. No, worse than an outsider; I’m like a slave... No, that’s not right either; I’m not exactly a slave, because I still have to make money to support the family, to provide for my sister and brother-in-law’s little household."
