CHAPTER 795: CHAPTER 795

"Hmph, and to think you’re my master. When your disciple is in trouble, you don’t even help, truly a heart of stone. If I could rate my master, I’d give you at most one point, no, zero points!"

"Master, my dear good master, please help me out. I’m really troubled by that pesky fly, I just don’t know what to do. Just help me a little bit. In exchange, I’ll listen to you from now on and won’t make you angry."

Zhang Xue definitely didn’t want to give up. You refuse, huh? Then I’ll stick to you until you agree.

You will agree, even if you don’t!

Su Lei’s eyes widened as she stared at the two of them.

These two were clearly about the same age; how did they end up as master and disciple?

What can Xu Qianli teach Zhang Xue?

Putting that aside, to her, Xu Qianli and Zhang Xue appeared to be a well-matched couple.

One tall and strong, the other sweet and charming; they really looked good together.

Suddenly, Su Lei chimed in, "Heehee, Xu Qianli, just agree to it. I think you two are really suitable, you look like a married couple. If you could be her girlfriend and later marry her, you’d surely be happy for a lifetime. Plus, I think your kids would definitely be super cute and absolutely amazing."

Zhang Xue was a bit dazed, stupidly looking at Su Lei. Seriously, who wants to be together with Xu Qianli, who would marry him and have his children?

With someone like him, a playboy full of tricks, even driving a car he has to flirt with beautiful women like you; would I take a liking to him? Could my taste be that bad?

And having a son? He can’t even touch my hand, I would never agree!

While she thought so to herself, Zhang Xue clung to Xu Qianli’s arm and refused to let go, shaking it vigorously without minding that her ample chest, separated only by thin fabric, pressed against his arm, giving him an undue advantage.

Xu Qianli was shaken until he felt like falling apart and couldn’t take it anymore, "Stop, stop it. Isn’t it just about finding a man to pretend to be your boyfriend, to fend off an admirer? Do you really need to ask me to do this? It’s hard to find a frog with three legs, but men with two legs are everywhere. Do you have to set your sights on me? Or are you using the guise of me pretending to be your boyfriend because you have an ulterior motive?"

Su Lei covered her mouth and giggled, "That’s what I guessed. This girl obviously has feelings for you, Xu Qianli. She likes you but is too shy to express it, so she’s looking for an excuse to get close to you. Young girls, after all, are thin-skinned, so don’t expose her; just silently accept it. Anyway, you’re not exactly a good man, full of flirtatious intentions. Why would you push away such a beautiful woman? Just nod and agree."

This...

Zhang Xue was in chaos.

Who secretly likes Xu Qianli, and who wants to find an excuse to get close to him to capture his heart? There’s no such thing, alright.

Really, you shouldn’t guess at others’ thoughts so randomly.

Even if it’s true, I, Zhang Xue, wouldn’t admit it now.

At that moment, Zhang Xue’s phone rang. It was a call, and upon checking, it turned out to be from her mother.

Zhang Xue shook her head helplessly. "It must be my mom urging me to give that fly a chance again. Seriously, it’s as if I’m some leftover woman who can’t get married. Is there really a need to rush it? I’m only twenty-three, in the prime of my youth; I’m not worried about finding someone to marry, really, mom?"

Although annoyed, Zhang Xue still pressed the answer button and immediately a middle-aged woman’s gentle voice came through.

"Xue’er, how are you considering that matter? The man’s side is really sincere, you know. When they heard you went to Longhai Province, they immediately ran over to find you. These past few days, you went to Wangdong Province, and he followed straight there. Look at you, always playing hard-to-get. Listen to me, just give him a chance."

"I know you have some resistance toward him, but relationships between men and women need to be cultivated through spending time together. Meet more often, increase contact, and feelings will grow."

"Not only does he come from a good family that matches ours, but he is also extremely outstanding in his own right. At a young age, he has already made something of himself, building his own business—definitely a rare catch. You, just give him, and yourself, a chance. Try dating a few times, even just once would be good..."

On the phone, Zhang Xue’s mom kept persuading her to interact with the man no matter what, suggesting that they might develop feelings, or even the spark of love.

Xu Qianli and Su Lei were all ears.

They had just suspected her of being a phony, of getting close under false pretenses, and it turned out it was really the case.

So young and pretty, clearly someone who wouldn’t worry about finding a husband, yet she’s being pressured into marriage. It’s unbelievable.

Facing her own mom’s marriage-harassment spell, Zhang Xue was resigned, too lazy to refuse, she simply directed her gaze toward Xu Qianli and glared at him fiercely, saying, "Mom, stop nagging. It’s not like I can’t get married. I already have a boyfriend, and I don’t want to interact with other men."

"What boyfriend? How many times have you fooled me with that excuse before? I won’t fall for it again. If you really have a boyfriend, then bring him to Beijing to let me take a good look at him, see if he’s worthy of my daughter."

"So, you’re out of tricks, aren’t you? I knew it, Xue’er, you don’t have a boyfriend, you can’t fool me. Just do as I say, try dating the young man, even just once is fine. Think of it as doing a favor for your dear mom, be good, and obey."

"Mom, I’ve got to go, I’ll let you see if I really have a boyfriend or not!" Zhang Xue hurriedly cut off her mom’s words, ended the call, and started a video chat, aiming the camera at Xu Qianli.

You won’t agree? Fine, I, Zhang Xue, will force the issue, make you agree even if you don’t want to!

The next moment, Xu Qianli saw a forty-something, fashionable woman appear on Zhang Xue’s cell phone.

The two stared at each other, not knowing what to say.

In the end, Xu Qianli mustered up his courage and said, "Hi Auntie, I am Zhang Xue’s... friend."

Before he could finish saying "friend," he felt a sharp pain in his foot, as Zhang Xue stepped on him fiercely.

Not only did she step on Xu Qianli, but she also looked at him furiously and made a slicing motion across her throat with her hand.

Xu Qianli, Xu Qianli, you rotten master, not helping your disciple in need, are you even human?

I don’t care, you have to help me, you must pretend to be my boyfriend and deal with my mom.

Otherwise, I’m not letting this go!

From the phone came Zhang’s mother’s voice, "Young man, are you my daughter’s boyfriend, or is it just a farce?"

Xu Qianli, with a forced smile, said, "Auntie, you’re joking, a boyfriend fake? I am genuinely Zhang Xue’s boyfriend."
