Chapter 582: Chapter 581, The Beautiful Cousin Got Dumped
Hearing the familiar voice,
along with the scent of perfume emanating from the other person, Xu Wendong instantly had an answer. He smiled and said, "It must be my sister Lu."
Xu Lu,
Xu Wendong’s cousin,
was two years older than Xu Wendong.
They often played together when they were young.
Before Xu Lu turned twelve, the two even frequently slept together.
It was not an exaggeration to say they were childhood sweethearts.
Xu Lu let go of the hands covering Xu Wendong’s eyes, but with one hand, she twisted Xu Wendong’s ear and, with furrowed brows and an angry look, she said, "Oh Xu Wendong, you’ve been away for so long, and you never thought to send me a message or make a call?"
"Tell me, do you still consider me your sister?"
"Ow, ow, ow!" Xu Wendong promptly yielded, "Sis, let go, or my ear will fall off!"
Xu Lu gave a faint humph and then released Xu Wendong’s ear, looking him up and down, "Not bad, you look more handsome than before."
"Well, look at whose brother I am!" Xu Wendong quickly flattered her, then sized up the cousin in front of him.
After not seeing each other for several months, Xu Lu also appeared more graceful than before, especially the delicate rosy nose from the cold, looking cute and exquisite.
"What are you looking at?" Xu Lu felt uneasy under Xu Wendong’s gaze and glared at him with a flushed face.
Xu Wendong chuckled, "You look so pretty, can’t others look a bit more?"
"Sweet talker!" Xu Lu said teasingly with a blushing face and then said, "Haven’t had dinner yet, have you? My mom prepared dinner, come eat at my place!"
"That’s too embarrassing!" Xu Wendong showed a shy smile and then cautiously asked, "Is there chicken stewed with mushrooms?"
Xu Lu said angrily, "Eat, eat, eat, all you know is to eat. After such a long time without seeing me, you can’t be a bit concerned about your sister?"
However, she still affectionately linked arms with Xu Wendong as they left the house, just like when they were children.
But before leaving, Xu Wendong went to the car and got two bottles of Wuliangye.
After all, with the New Year, how can you go to someone’s house for a meal empty-handed?
"Wendong, sister broke up."
Under the setting sun,
Xu Lu suddenly said.
"What happened?" Xu Wendong displayed a surprised expression, knowing his cousin had a stable relationship with a boyfriend, engaged to be married.
Her boyfriend was the only son of the town’s wealthiest man with assets worth tens of millions.
Xu Lu calmly said, "I thought Zhou Yi was a good man, but I didn’t expect him to be a scumbag."
"He was dating me while flirting with other women, so I broke up with him."
She said, then kicked a stone on the roadside away.
Though her tone was calm, that kick revealed the displeasure in her heart.
"Life is short, cut your losses in time," Xu Wendong added, "Besides, my sister is so beautiful, she will definitely meet someone more suitable for her."
This wasn’t mere flattery.
Xu Lu genuinely was very beautiful, standing around five foot seven, with stunning features, a striking figure, and especially those bright eyes that seemed to speak.
During the conversation, the two arrived in front of a two-story house.
This was Xu Lu’s home.
The first two-story villa in the village.
Entering the home, a sumptuous dinner was already spread on the table.
Xu Wendong also met Xu Lu’s parents and without a word knelt down with a thump, "Uncle, Aunt, your nephew wishes you a happy New Year!"
The customs differed locally. In Xu Family Village, visiting elders during the New Year required kneeling.
"Hurry and wash your hands to eat," Xu Qingtao said with a kindly smile.
"Alright!"
Xu Wendong obediently agreed, washed his hands, and sat at the dining table, happily opening a bottle of Wuliangye, "Today we will drink this, just us guys!"
Auntie, on the side, said, "Wendong, earning money isn’t easy, remember not to spend extravagantly, saving money to buy a house and get married is what’s important."
Though she was a housewife, she knew Wuliangye was not cheap; a bottle equaled a year’s harvest of an acre of land.
"Auntie, I’m still young, no rush to marry," Xu Wendong said while pouring a drink for Xu Qingtao.
The four of them sat together, eating and chatting.
Suddenly,
Xu Qingtao’s voice resonated, "Wendong, have you noticed any change in Wenjian’s character while you were together?"
He was Xu Wenjian’s uncle, having watched Xu Wenjian grow up, thus knowing his character well.
This time Xu Wenjian came back, he had felt something was off.
Xu Lu also said, "I too feel that Brother Wenjian seems like a different person this time, giving off a gloomy vibe."
As her kin, Xu Lu had a good relationship with Xu Wenjian.
Xu Wendong stated, "My brother is just under a lot of work stress, nothing major. As people say, when the work stress is high, come back home for a few days, and he has been back home for quite a few days. I believe he will adjust in a few days."
Xu Wendong felt fortunate to have concocted the elixir, intending to take his cousin for a check-up once back in the county.
Once discovering his oligospermia had healed, Xu Wenjian’s depression could be alleviated, even healed.
While the four were eating,
the sound of car doors closing resonated from outside.
And then, the dog feeding at Xu Qingtao’s house barked rapidly.
Meanwhile,
a young man entered fiercely with a dozen or so people.
Seeing the person leading,
Xu Lu’s face suddenly changed, she stood up angrily, "Zhou Yi, what are you doing at my house?"
Xu Qingtao and his wife’s faces also looked unpleasant, they didn’t expect Zhou Yi would barge in with so many people.
Though Zhou Yi was once their prospective son-in-law,
after discovering his actions,
the couple only had disgust for him.
"Lu Lu, though we broke up, it doesn’t mean I can’t come to your house, right?" Zhou Yi’s face wore a sly smile, "If you want me to leave, fine, but you must return the engagement gift of 128,800!"
"After all, now that we have broken up, retrieving that money is merely justified, isn’t it?"
Xu Lu was enraged, "You’ve wasted two years of my life and still want me to return the engagement gift? Aren’t you dreaming too far-fetched?"
Typically, after an engagement, if the relationship was unsuitable and Xu Lu proposed to break up, she should have returned the gift money received during the engagement.
Likewise, if the man proposed to break up, he was not obliged to ask for the engagement gift back.
But this situation was different; the reason Xu Lu proposed breaking up was fundamentally because Zhou Yi first betrayed their relationship.
She was already hurt in this relationship and didn’t need to return the bride price.
Zhou Yi sneered, "Whether dreaming or daydreaming, that money, you must return!"
Xu Wendong drank a sip of wine, calmly asked, "What if we don’t return it?"
