Xin Chen worked in politics, Xin Bei worked in the army, and Cao Wenjun worked in the police force. Among the three of them, Xin Bei was the most successful one, but he was only a lieutenant colonel in a military region. No one knew that he was a member of the Red Flame.
Cao Wenjun had heard about Xin Bei from Xin Chen, and he admired Xin Bei for being a lieutenant colonel at such a young age. However, because of various reasons, it was the first time that they met each other.
"Xin Bei, you're not young anymore, and it's time for you to find a girlfriend. What do you think of my cousin, Wenxin?" Xin Chen asked all of a sudden. In fact, he invited the Cao family to celebrate the Lantern Festival today because he wanted to set Xin Bei up with Cao Wenxin.
He thought that Xin Bei was young and promising, and Cao Wenxin wasn't bad either, so he decided to take Xin Bei as a member of his own family.
Of course, he was just trying to set them up, and it was up to them whether they liked each other or not.
Xin Bei was struck dumb for a second, then had mixed feelings. He didn't know how to describe his feelings towards Cao Wenxin, because they had had several unpleasant experiences before, and he didn't know what to feel about her.
"Don't worry about me. You can't stop fate from coming," Xin Bei said. He didn't give a direct answer, but it could also be regarded as an indirect rejection.
Since Xin Bei said that, Xin Chen didn't say anything further. Cao Wenjun was a little disappointed. If it was possible, he really hoped that Xin Bei and Cao Wenxin could have a future together.
However, it didn't mean that it was impossible. After all, they had just met once, and it was hard to say.
Cao Wenjun thought that he would invite them to hang out together after lunch to create more chances for Cao Wenxin and Xin Bei to meet each other.
Given the current relationship between Cao Wenxin and Xin Bei, it wasn't a bad thing for Cao Wenjun to do that.
Cao Wenxin wanted to find her cousin-in-law to avoid Xin Bei, but soon after she went upstairs, her cousin-in-law wanted to go downstairs with the baby, so Cao Wenxin had to go downstairs too.
Besides, her cousin-in-law also walked towards them. She couldn't stand there alone.
"Wenxin, come and sit here!" Qiao Wei shouted.
In order not to be discovered by others, Cao Wenxin could only bite the bullet and walk over. She sat down and played with her two-year-old nephew to avoid any awkward situations.
Xin Bei also wanted to avoid any awkwardness, so he kept talking with Cao Wenjun and Xing Chen as if nothing had happened.
In the eyes of others, these two people had no chance at all.
Even so, he couldn't stop Cao Wenjun's plan tonight.
After finishing the meal, Cao Wenxin thought that she was free, but to her surprise, Cao Wenjun proposed that they go to see the lanterns together, and Xing Chen agreed.
"Can I not go?" Cao Wenxin asked. She really didn't want to argue with Xin Bei.
For some reason, Xin Bei was a little displeased when Cao Wenxin refused to go out with him. Did she hate him that much? However, after a while, he realized that he didn't want to see her either. Wouldn't it be better if she didn't go?
"Don't you like lively places? Why don't you go with us? "Cao Wenjun frowned with confusion.
"Right, Wenxin! Why don't you go with us? Why don't you go home alone? " Tang Yunrong said. She didn't know what her sister-in-law was thinking, but she thought that since they were going to hang out together, they should go out together.
"Wenxin, I'll go with you. You're not the only girl, "Qiao Wei said. She thought that Cao Wenxin felt shy because she was a girl.
"…" Cao Wenxin opened her mouth, but didn't know how to reject. She also knew that if she made it too obvious, it would arouse their suspicion.
"Fine, I'll go with you." Fine, I'll go. "She had no choice but to compromise.
Seeing Cao Wenxin's reluctance, Xin Bei was displeased again, but he couldn't say anything.
Xin Chen drove the car, and Qiao Wei sat in the front passenger's seat. Xin Bei sat on the right side of the back seat, while Cao Wenxin sat on the left side.
On the way, Cao Wenxin didn't talk of her own initiative, which was completely different from her usual style, so they felt that something was wrong. However, they didn't think that it had something to do with Xin Bei.
"Wenxin, what's wrong? Why didn't you talk of your own initiative today? It's not your usual style, "Xin Chen asked.
"I don't know what to say," Cao Wenxin said. "You can talk about your own things. Don't mind me."
Xin Chen wanted Cao Wenxin to talk to him, so he couldn't leave her alone. "I heard that you went to the capital a few days ago," he said.
"Yeah," Cao Wenxin said.
"Did you have a good time?" Xin Chen asked.
Cao Wenxin paused for a second, then said, "I'm sad when I'm happy."
Cao Wenxin deliberately emphasized the word "sad", which was obvious. Other people didn't know it, but Xin Bei clearly understood that Cao Wenxin was unhappy when she met him.
Xin Bei was annoyed. Does she think that I'm the only one who's unhappy? I'm the one who's really unhappy!
The first time they met, Cao Wenxin poured coffee on him and called him a scumbag. The second time, Cao Wenxin hit him with a baseball bat. The third time, Cao Wenxin poured coffee on him again and almost broke his d * ck. He was the unlucky one, so he should be the one who's unhappy.
"What happened to you?" Qiao Wei asked. She wasn't gossiping, but simply cared about Cao Wenxin.
"I met a bad man," Cao Wenxin said without hesitation. She regretted it the moment she said it, but it was too late to take it back.
"A bad man?" Xin Bei couldn't stay calm any longer. He stared at Cao Wenxin with a sense of danger.
Hearing Xin Bei's aggressive tone, they immediately realized that there was something fishy going on between them.
"Isn't he a bad man? Cao Wenxin hit him by accident, so he hit me on purpose to get back at me. How can he be a bad man? " Cao Wenxin clearly knew that she had misunderstood Xin Bei, but for some reason, she disliked him, so she decided to play the blame game.
Xin Bei was amused and asked, "Who poured coffee on me the first time they saw me? The second time, you hit me with a baseball bat, and the third time, you poured coffee on me. And … "Xin Bei stopped abruptly, because he was too embarrassed to say it aloud." Fine, you misunderstood me the first time, and you were careless the second and the third time, but have you ever apologized to me? I think you're the bad man! "
"You …" Cao Wenxin didn't know what to say.
