Chapter 2097 - 2193: Awkwardness

Chapter 2097: Chapter 2193: Awkwardness

Well, since that’s the case, Su Xuan doesn’t know if he can persuade them. Anyway, he’ll just watch the situation first!

When Su Xuan followed Chen Chuyu to the private room of One Sword Water Village on the third floor, Chen Chuyu gently knocked on the door and then pushed it open!

As the door opened, colorful flowers bloomed, followed by a chorus of "Happy Birthday" ringing out!

At that moment, Chen Chuyu was a bit confused, but soon felt touched. This strong woman herself had forgotten today was her birthday, no wonder her boyfriend had repeatedly invited her!

"Thank you, dear!"

In that instant, Chen Chuyu was very happy, while Su Xuan felt a bit awkward, thinking to himself about coming empty-handed to eat and drink without preparing a birthday gift, would this be bad!

At this time, the lights in the room lit up, and Su Xuan saw a birthday cake on the table and rose petals arranged in a heart shape, with soft, melodious music playing!

"Darling, first I want to thank you for coming into this world twenty-five years ago, which allowed me to meet you. Knowing you has truly been the greatest blessing of my life. Please marry me..."

This man said a lot of cheesy and emotional words, at least for someone like Su Xuan, who listened and felt admiration; he truly was a master at making his words sound so beautiful!

"I will!"

Chen Chuyu agreed tearfully, and only then did Su Xuan notice there were quite a few people here. It seemed they were mutual friends, and now that the proposal was successful, they started cheering loudly!

"Oh, let me introduce you, this is my friend Su Haoran. Mr. Su, please come in!"

Chen Chuyu said a little sheepishly. She could sense Su Xuan’s discomfort, since he initially thought there would only be three people but now found so many. Naturally, this made him feel a bit out of place and awkward, and she felt apologetic for not considering him earlier, so was somewhat embarrassed!

When Su Xuan was pulled into the room by Chen Chuyu, everyone looked at him, and they were all a bit intrigued! More than that, they were surprised by Su Xuan’s appearance!

At this moment, these people first looked at Su Xuan and then at Chen Chuyu’s boyfriend. Su Xuan felt awkward, but he naturally knew what they were looking at. Chen Chuyu’s boyfriend was named Nan Huaijin, who was indeed handsome, but compared to Su Xuan, he fell a bit short!

It’s hard to say exactly where the difference lies. Su Xuan’s handsomeness might be more about his masculinity, the kind that exudes confidence in a suit and tie, while Nan Huaijin had more of a scholarly aura!

"Chuyu, introduce this handsome guy!"

One of the women teased with a mischievous wink!

"Ahem, well hello everyone, my name is Su Haoran, I’m a student of Teacher Chen. We just happened to meet, so I came up here for a free meal, my sincere apologies!"

Su Xuan quickly moved past his initial awkwardness and was soon oblivious to it. This guy had never been shy; his self-assured nature was his trademark.

Once everyone sat down, several women proactively greeted Su Xuan!

"Mr. Su, where do you work?"

One of the women asked softly. Actually, some were Chen Chuyu’s friends, and some were Nan Huaijin’s friends. The woman who asked Su Xuan was Chen Lu, Chen Chuyu’s good sister, who was very smart. She knew Su Xuan was not simple once she saw him, since any man invited for a meal by Chen Chuyu was never simple!

"He’s the Vice President at Changting?"

Chen Chuyu added in introduction.

"Changting, is it Chanting World?"

Chen Lu asked excitedly, and everyone’s attitude towards Su Xuan changed instantly. People can be peculiar like this, especially in this materialistic society, which tends to be a social hierarchy!

Previously, their greetings to Su Xuan were out of courtesy, and at most, they thought he looked handsome. But when Chen Chuyu mentioned Su Xuan was Changting’s Vice President, their impression of him changed!

Chanting World was a renowned company in Chengdu, with manager salaries reaching millions a month, and the Vice President’s salary was beyond imagination!

"Chanting World is so famous. Mr. Su is so young; it’s truly unexpected!"

"Haha, you flatter me!"

Su Xuan felt a little embarrassed. He knew Chen Chuyu introduced him as being from Changting to help her boyfriend build a connection with him and would introduce the topic she wanted to discuss later!

Following this, the women at the table frequently toasted Su Xuan. Initially, he didn’t notice anything amiss, but suddenly he felt a hint of hostility and curiously looked around, only to meet Nan Huaijin’s gaze, frowning slightly to himself, thinking wasn’t this man supposed to be broad-minded? Why be so petty over these trivial things!

Although Nan Huaijin outwardly maintained a composed demeanor without seeming uncomfortable, Su Xuan was not ordinary; he was an expert who had reached the Ancestor Returning Stage and could clearly sense others’ thoughts.

Nan Huaijin’s earlier hostility towards him was undoubtedly genuine.

Honestly, Su Xuan found it puzzling, initially having a good impression of Nan Huaijin, who appeared refined and composed, but with the unintentional hostility, Su Xuan realized Nan Huaijin wasn’t as flawless as Chen Chuyu claimed.

According to Chen Chuyu, her boyfriend was very magnanimous, but Su Xuan truly didn’t see that. He knew why Nan Huaijin harbored hostility towards him; most present were women, and the few men weren’t particularly attractive!

Su Xuan figured out that Nan Huaijin might be someone who truly enjoyed and loved others adoring him, in other words, he had desires without the courage to act. Most of these women were good-looking, and Su Xuan initially judged that Nan Huaijin had developed good relations with them, often surrounded by these women. However, once Su Xuan arrived, the women’s attention shifted, leaving Nan Huaijin feeling extremely disappointed!

Su Xuan felt speechless, thinking now in front of these people, they didn’t know whether he had a family.
