Chapter 291: Good Impression
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Ruowan recognized the young man in front of her at a glance. It was Fu Qingxuan.
After that day, she did a background check on him and finally found his picture in a medical journal.
Su Ruowan knew that they were destined to meet again, but she never thought that God would be so kind to her to send him right to her side.
She swept him a glance with a stubborn and cold gaze, then quickly withdrew her gaze. She wanted to use her way to win him over, so she would keep her pride and ignore him, then wait for him to take the initiative to talk to her.
Some men were unappreciative. The more she chased him, the more he would ignore her.
However, if she ignored him, he would cling to her like a lapdog.
Su Ruowan was sure that Fu Qingxuan was this kind of man due to his bad temper.
Su Muxuan also did not expect to see the pretty boy that had been hanging around Shen Xi here. What made Su Muxuan curious was that this pretty boy seemed to be alone. He did not see Shen Xi. Maybe that b*tch Shen Xi was following this boy!
Su Yi looked at Su Muxuan’s expression and could guess a thing or two. He asked, “Is this little punk the man who was with Xixi?”
‘The one from the theater?’
This time, this boy looked completely different from the guy in the theater. His aura had changed drastically.
Su Muxuan answered, “Yeah, Shen Xi must be in the back. Dad, you don’t have to talk to her alone.”
Su Yi showed an aspirational smile and changed his attitude towards the young man in front of him. He even changed the way he addressed that man. “This young man is no ordinary person.”
He did not care how many men Shen Xi was having an affair with. He just wanted her to be able to capture the hearts of all men. Of course, they must not be poor and must be from a prestigious family so that the Su family could get more allies and benefits.
Li Jingran did not recognize him as the arrogant, domineering, and supercilious man from the theater, nor did she hear Su Yi and Su Muxuan’s conversation. She only looked at her daughter beside her. Wanwan seemed to be very interested in that boy.
Su Ruowan had already begun to scheme. If he doesn’t take the initiative to talk to me, which method should I use to get his attention?
Fu Qingxuan just sneered in his heart. How unlucky! Why did I have to meet this shameless family again?
‘Also, meanie’s not even here.’
Last night, Fu Qingxuan purposely asked his second brother to make sure that Shen Xi was on this flight.
He bought a first-class ticket. There were a total of eight seats and only one was empty. Why isn’t meanie here yet? Did she get into an accident on the way?
Fu Qingxuan was worried as he sat in his seat, so he took out his phone to send her a message, which he soon received a reply to.
Meanie: Young Master, you’re awake?
Fu Qingxuan: Where are you?
Meanie: On the plane. I’m arriving in the afternoon. You?
Fu Qingxuan casually typed: Okay.
Since Shen Xi was already on the plane, it meant that she was not in first class.
Another young man boarded the plane.
The last seat was soon occupied.
The young man wore a red down jacket and was handsome, but he had arrogance written all over his face. When he saw the Su family, he even nodded and greeted them, “Hello, Uncle and Auntie.”
Su Yi saw the young man and knew that Shen Xi was not on this flight. He nodded at the boy and smiled. “Xu, you came here for a trip?”
Pei Xu replied, “I came to see a friend.”
After saying that, he threw his duffel bag onto his seat and swept a glance at the person sitting next to him.
The man’s side profile was facing Pei Xu and was playing with his phone. The sunlight coming in from the window shone on the man’s overly delicate and perfect side profile.
‘F*ck!’
‘His skin is amazing! It’s so soft and even more beautiful than a girl’s.’
Pei Xu swept a glance and sat on his seat.
Fu Qingxuan sized Pei Xu up with contempt.
‘Meh.’
‘He’s acquainted with the Su family and greeted them nicely, so he’s probably no one.’
Su Ruowan saw Pei Xu taking his seat and stood up. She walked in front of Fu Qingxuan to Pei Xu and looked at him gently as she asked, “Pei Xu, will you change seats with me? I wanna sit by the window and watch the sunrise.”
Pei Xu smirked devilishly and swept her a cursory glance without any respect for her. “Nope! I wanna see the sunrise.”
“Then enjoy the sunrise!” Su Ruowan’s expression changed and looked embarrassed. Through the corner of her eye, she quietly paid attention to Fu Qingxuan’s reaction, but she found that he was focused on his phone and did not care about her at all. Su Ruowan lost confidence in her plan.
When Su Yi heard Pei Xu’s words, he was unhappy, but he still smiled and said, “Xu, do Uncle a favor and change seats with Wanwan. She wants to see the sunrise. As a brother, you should be nice to her.”
Pei Xu raised his eyebrows and became more arrogant. “Uncle Su, you can’t say that. I can’t afford to have such a sister. Do you think she’s Mary Sue (TN: a fictional character who was seen as unrealistically perfect and boring due to the lack of flaws, often used as a derogatory term in fanfiction)? Why should I give her whatever she wants?”
Su Yi was dissed like this, which made his face red with anger. “How can you talk like this, kid?”
“I always talk like this,” Pei Xu laughed and made a face, then pointed at Su Ruowan. “If you don’t believe me, just ask her or Su Mushi when you get back.”
Pei Xu did not believe that Su Mushi’s family did not know about their son crawling under his crotch.
He only greeted them as a courtesy.
Su Ruowan was annoyed. “Pei Xu, don’t go overboard. If you don’t wanna switch seats with me, just forget it. You don’t have to be so rude.”
Pei Xu laughed out loud, “Yo, is this the first time you find out that I’m rude? If you can’t stand it, scurry back to your seat then.”
He could not stand seeing the Su family’s self-righteous faces and felt like vomiting last night’s dinner. Each one of the Su family looked like everyone owed them and did not have the slightest bit of self-awareness.
Su Muxuan’s face turned red with anger and got up wanting to make a move.
Su Yi pulled him back and called out to Su Ruowan, “Wanwan, come back. Just ignore Pei Xu.”
Pei Xu, this little bastard. He’s just an illegitimate son of the Pei family. Look how arrogant he is! There are so many more affluent families in the capital compared to the Pei family, and the Su family isn’t any less than them, but this punk didn’t even give me face!
Li Jingran pulled Su Ruowan to sit down with her eyebrows knitted. She then swept Pei Xu a sidelong glance coldly.
‘This bastard is just as immoral and lowly as his mother. It serves him right that he never got the recognition of Old Master Pei since he came from such a filthy place.’
Fu Qingxuan, who was sitting next to him, smiled faintly with some interest. He had a good impression of Pei Xu. Anyone who was against the Su family was his friend.
‘This person is sharp-tongued and arrogant enough.’
