Chen Xinhui had not expected Han Guoliang to initiate a conversation with him.
He nodded and said, "That's my daughter, Chen Xuan. What's wrong?"
Han Guoliang said with some surprise, "It's truly unexpected. In such a poor and remote place, there would be such a beautiful girl."
After murmuring, he changed his mind and said, "I'm not going back. I'll eat here."
Everyone was deeply surprised by Han Guoliang's sudden change.
On the other side, Wu Tian's brows furrowed slightly.
How could he not see that Han Guoliang clearly had feelings for Chen Xuan, which was why he wanted to stay?
This guy was not a good person. Wu Tian felt he had to stay and keep a close eye on things.
Before long, Chen Xuan and her mother had finished preparing the meal, and everyone sat down at the table to eat.
Han Guoliang deliberately dragged a chair and sat next to Chen Xuan.
But what he didn't expect was that as soon as he dragged the chair over, Chen Xuan immediately moved and sat next to Wu Tian.
The adults were all chatting, while Han Guoliang kept staring at Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan felt a bit embarrassed by his gaze and finally couldn't help but say timidly, "Hey... why do you keep looking at me?"
Han Guoliang smiled slightly at Chen Xuan and then said, "Your name is Chen Xuan, right? I wanted to ask you something. Do you have a boyfriend right now?"
Hearing Han Guoliang say this, Chen Xuan couldn't help but freeze.
She said with some confusion, "I don't have a boyfriend, why?"
A hint of surprise flashed across Han Guoliang's eyes, and he then smiled and said, "You don't have a boyfriend yet?"
"But I heard that girls from rural families get married quite early. You're so beautiful, and you still don't have a boyfriend. How is that possible?"
Chen Xuan subconsciously glanced at Wu Tian, and her pretty face turned slightly red.
Girls of her appearance naturally had many suitors.
Moreover, she was doing business outside and came into contact with many wealthy people, including many second-generation rich who pursued her.
However, Chen Xuan already had someone in her heart. She had made up her mind to follow Wu Tian her entire life, so she absolutely would not look for a boyfriend now.
She shook her head and said, "I don't want to find a boyfriend right now, so I haven't."
Han Guoliang chuckled, "Why not? You look about the same age as me. If you don't find a boyfriend at this age, in a couple more years, no one will want you!"
His words made Chen Xuan a little unhappy.
Chen Xuan said, "This shouldn't concern you. Instead of asking me these things, you should mind your own business."
Chen Xuan had always been a very gentle girl, and she rarely got angry at people.
But Han Guoliang was really tactless, and his overall demeanor also made her somewhat disgusted, which was why she spoke such harsh words.
Chen Xinhui whispered to Chen Xuan, "Daughter, this is a guest. How can you talk to a guest like that? Apologize to him quickly."
Han Sheng smiled and said, "No need. It's my son's fault for being tactless. My son should apologize to Xuanxuan!"
Although Han Guoliang was a bit displeased with Chen Xuan's words, he swallowed his anger and asked, "Alright, I won't say that. What kind of work do you do now?"
Since Chen Xuan was talking to Han Guoliang, she didn't answer. Chen Xinhui said from the side, "My daughter is currently in the aquaculture business. She manages the fish pond behind our house."
"So, you're a fish seller? I thought it was something else," Han Guoliang said dismissively.
He truly looked down on Chen Xuan's work, so at this moment, Chen Xuan's impression of him also weakened a bit.
The atmosphere became a little awkward.
Chen Xinhui quickly asked Han Guoliang again, "So, Guoliang, what kind of work do you do?"
Han Guoliang seemed to have been waiting for Chen Xinhui to ask this question.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smug smile, and he said, "Me? I don't do anything particularly serious."
"Do you know Li's Jewelry? Yes, you're from the countryside, you probably don't know."
"Let me tell you, Li's Jewelry is a well-known jewelry company in the county, with assets of over a billion. I'm just a senior executive there, earning a million or so annually."
Han Guoliang's tone was casual, as if it were not something worth mentioning.
But from his slightly raised eyebrows, everyone knew he was quite pleased with himself.
Wu Tian certainly knew Li's Jewelry, as the heir to Li's Jewelry, Li Chen, had suffered a setback at his hands before.
That's right, at the Gemstone Appraisal Convention, Li Chen lost to him and then performed a striptease in public, losing all face.
Upon hearing Han Guoliang's words, Chen Xinhui immediately exclaimed in admiration.
He said with some envy, "A million annual income! Guoliang, you are truly outstanding. My brother Han is fortunate to have a son like you!"
Han Sheng smiled and said, "Brother Chen, you are too kind."
"My son is just lucky. He doesn't deserve such high praise from you!"
Han Guoliang was quite pleased with Chen Xinhui's admiration.
He continued, "Chen Xuan, I have a lot of influence in the company. Do you like jewelry? I can give you a few pieces to wear then."
Chen Xuan had no interest in jewelry, and her current income was higher than Han Guoliang's.
If she really liked jewelry, she could buy it herself and didn't need Han Guoliang to give it to her.
So she shook her head and said, "No, thank you. We don't know each other, and it's not appropriate for you to give me jewelry. So, please give your jewelry to someone else."
Hearing Chen Xuan say this, Han Guoliang scoffed.
He snorted and said, "Don't pretend. What woman in the world doesn't like jewelry?"
"If you were some rich person and looked down on the jewelry I give, that would be understandable. I could accept that."
"But you're a country girl, a village bumpkin if I'm being blunt. Why would you refuse it!"
These words were particularly harsh and completely disrespectful, making Chen Xuan even more angry.
Her delicate eyebrows furrowed, and she also said unceremoniously, "Hey, is there something wrong with you? How can you look down on people like that?"
"I don't want it, so I don't want it. Is there a problem with that? Why are you saying that to me?"
Han Guoliang sneered, "What I said is not wrong, is it? Aren't you just pretending?"
"Otherwise, why wouldn't you want my jewelry? That's completely unreasonable!"
