I Became the Male Lead's Stepmother After Transmigrating Novel - Chapter 87

Chapter 87: Want to Exercise

Yang Liu had just returned from abroad. She did not have many friends here, so she did not know where to go shopping. Her other colleagues took advantage of the summer vacation to either go on a trip or spend time with their boyfriends. There were also those who had a family at home. She did not have many friends to begin with, so she could not find anyone to go out with.

Xiang Xiaoyuan had a lot of time. When she heard that Yang Liu said that she was alone and had no one to accompany her, she volunteered to go shopping with her.

In fact, to a certain extent, Xiang Xiaoyuan was similar to Yang Liu.

Xiang Xiaoyuan had just transmigrated into the book, so she was not very familiar with her surroundings and the people around her. Moreover, she found that the original owner had a very small social circle and had almost no friends. As a result, Xiang Xiaoyuan was unable to take over the original owner’s social circle.

In other words, she also had no friends.

In addition to doing business to make money, Xiang Xiaoyuan also hoped to form her own social circle as soon as possible. Only with her own friends and her own business would she be considered to have a firm foothold in this world.

Otherwise, it would be very lonely. Therefore, she unreservedly showed her goodwill and made friends the moment she could.

As it turned out, Yang Liu was a very good person and would be a very good friend in the future.

Xiang Xiaoyuan did not notice Lu Wanggui’s surprise. Perhaps, in her knowledge, making friends quickly was not a surprising thing. She raised her head and asked Lu Wanggui, “I will definitely be there on time tomorrow afternoon. But, can I bring Yang Liu with me?”

Lu Wanggui sorted out the emotions in his eyes and nodded calmly. “Sure.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan smiled, her eyes sparkled. “Yang Liu told me before that she is interested in the stock market. She is also a top student. She will definitely absorb more things from this seminar than me. She will be able to understand things that I don’t understand. Perhaps the two of us newbies will be able to discuss it together.”

Lu Wanggui: “You’re very smart too.”

“I can’t. I’m just a street-smart. I can’t put myself out there.” Xiang Xiaoyuan waved her hand and thought of Yang Liu’s resume. I don’t know how her brain developed. Why is she so amazing?”

When it came to topics that interested her, Xiang Xiaoyuan had a lot to say. She talked more than usual, and her cherry lips kept chattering non-stop.

“Maybe it’s because I’m too bad in my studies, so I idolized straight-A students since I was young. I always feel that people who could be straight-A students have a much more developed brain than normal people. Otherwise, how would they be able to solve problems that I couldn’t figure out after studying for days?”

Lu Wanggui listened, and his gaze fell on Xiang Xiaoyuan’s headband for some reason.

Ever since he came back from a business trip abroad, he found that there were many things in his house. Most of them were headbands or hair ties. They were on the bedside table in the bedroom, beside the sink, and on the shelves beside the bathtub. There was even a time when he was woken up by something while sleeping. When he got up, he saw that it was a headband with all kinds of small patterns on it. The culprit who threw things everywhere was sleeping soundly on top of the quilt.

At that moment, Xiang Xiaoyuan was wearing a headband that he had never seen before. It was a cute white cat’s ears with a ball of pink fur in the middle. It swayed as she spoke. It was very cute.

After Xiang Xiaoyuan finished nagging, she yawned and sat on the dressing table in a daze. She put something on her face and massaged it. As she was massaging, she suddenly rubbed her stuffed stomach and sighed, “I think I’ve eaten too much. I should do some exercise…”

As soon as she said that, she snapped back to her senses.

Xiang Xiaoyuan rarely felt awkward, but at this moment, she really wanted to turn back time and make her swallow the words that she had just said!

Exercise? What exercise? ! There was too much innuendo in those words!

Just as she was scratching her head and trying to salvage the situation, she heard Lu Wanggui suddenly say, “Although it’s summer, the temperature difference between day and night is quite big. If you want to swim, you can do it during the day tomorrow.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan: “…”

She heaved a sigh of relief.

Lu Wanggui was too magnanimous, so much so that she could not help but wonder if her thoughts were too dirty. It was just exercise, what else could it be?

“Okay, you’re right. I’ll swim tomorrow.” Xiang Xiaoyuan fanned her face with her hand. It had only been a short while, but her face had turned red from anxiety.

Now that the crisis was over, she yawned and climbed into the bed to switch off the bedside lamp. “I’m so sleepy. I’m going to sleep first. Good night.”

After saying that, she rolled over and wrapped herself tightly in the blanket, ready to fall asleep.

It was dark all around her. She could not see Lu Wanggui’s expression, she could only hear his steady voice. “Okay, good night.”

After a long while, Lu Wanggui slowly closed his eyes after hearing the sound of steady breathing.
