Chapter 152: It Can’t Be Xiaoru, Can It?
"A car just for getting around... You’re not saying you lack ambition, are you?"
"Right, right, I think when buying a car, it doesn’t have to be like Zhang Na’s boyfriend’s—about a million for a luxury vehicle—at least get a mid-range car for around two hundred thousand. That way, when you drive it out, you won’t lose face. If you’re talking about cars that cost just over a hundred thousand or even just tens of thousands, even if someone offered to let me drive one for free, I wouldn’t want it."
Song Xiaoru cleared her throat, saying, "Well then, I’ll just go ahead and buy a car around two hundred thousand later."
"Sigh, it’s a nice thought, but with our salaries, who knows which year of the monkey or the month of the horse we’ll be able to afford a car. We can only hope to marry into a good family, and among us, Xiaoru has the best chance—she’s pretty, has a good figure, and her personality is beyond reproach."
By this time, Song Xiaodong had finished his cigarette and walked straight up to them. Song Xiaoru smiled and greeted him, asking in a low voice, "What brings you here?"
Song Xiaodong said, "I’m thinking about going to see our new house, then figure out what kind of furniture to buy."
Song Xiaoru quickly said, "Don’t broadcast it."
Song Xiaodong laughed and said, "Sis, we’re not stealing or robbing; there’s nothing to hide."
Song Xiaoru hastily said, "I just don’t want them to feel bad about it, and on top of that, if I flaunt my wealth, it won’t be easy to get along with them afterward."
At this point, the colleagues followed over and scrutinized Song Xiaodong, asking, "Xiaoru, who is this?"
Song Xiaodong immediately wrapped his arm around Song Xiaoru’s waist, lifted his chin, and said, "I’m Xiaoru’s boyfriend."
They all gasped, "Xiaoru, you have a boyfriend?" They looked even more curiously at Song Xiaodong, first at his face—which wasn’t exactly handsome but still pleasant to look at—and most importantly, there was a kind of manly assertiveness about him.
