Chapter 196 Stop Slacking Off

"Xizhou, look, Nangong Jin and An Nuan are sitting together, just like those people said, they are so well-matched."

"Look at the way Nangong Jin looks at An Nuan, it's truly doting."

"Xizhou, An Nuan is truly so fortunate to have met someone who cherishes her so much."

Fortunate?

Someone who cherishes her?

Shen Xizhou's expression was extremely grim, and his gaze towards Xu Ruowei was filled with thick displeasure and dissatisfaction.

He was truly unhappy with what Xu Ruowei had said.

He pulled his hand away from Xu Ruowei's.

Xu Ruowei bit her lip tightly, looking at Shen Xizhou with unwillingness. But Shen Xizhou didn't notice Xu Ruowei's change, because at this moment, all his attention was on An Nuan.

At this moment, even if Xu Ruowei held his hand tightly, he probably wouldn't have noticed anything.

Xu Ruowei was unwilling, her eyes filled with bloodshot veins, but she still held back.

She gripped Shen Xizhou's hand tightly, wanting to remind him to pay attention, to pay attention to her presence by his side.

"Xizhou, tell me, is Nangong Jin sincere towards An Nuan? He's so attentive to An Nuan's affairs."

"Nangong Jin is very gentle with An Nuan. Heaven is truly good to An Nuan. Previously, so many people stood up for her, and now there's Nangong Jin. An Nuan is truly lucky."

"However, I am also happy, because I have you."

Lucky?

People kept appearing around An Nuan.

As Shen Xizhou listened to Xu Ruowei's words, a terrifying aura emanated from him. His face was taut.

"Mr. Nangong and Miss An, how did you meet? And when do you plan to get married?"

The surrounding people began to flatter them.

Because they discovered that as long as their conversation revolved around him and An Nuan, Nangong Jin's mood would be exceptionally good. Most importantly, Nangong Jin would even answer. This was very rare. This was a situation they hadn't encountered before.

An Nuan, sitting to the side, was slightly startled.

She wanted to speak up and explain to everyone present that they had misunderstood.

In reality, she and Nangong Jin were currently just friends.

She was truly grateful for Nangong Jin's help.

She had indeed thought about being with Nangong Jin.

But that was just a thought; some things hadn't been clarified yet.

And there were many other things in between.

Just as everyone was discussing this matter, they noticed that Nangong Jin's expression seemed to have turned unpleasant.

Those people were all stunned, with a bad premonition in their hearts. Had they said something wrong?

The words Nangong Jin had spoken earlier were just to defend An Nuan.

At this moment, Huo Yuxuan arrived.

His arrival directly interrupted all the silence.

Huo Yuxuan didn't understand what was wrong with these people, looking at him with such excited eyes. For a moment, he even felt that perhaps he shouldn't have appeared here.

He turned around and wanted to leave.

Then, remembering what he had come here for, he smiled and looked at An Nuan.

He said something to An Nuan, and a smile bloomed on An Nuan's face. She seemed to be in a very good mood.

The others looked at the scene before them and suddenly felt that perhaps they had misunderstood something earlier.

In fact, the reason Nangong Jin stood up to speak for An Nuan was because of Huo Yuxuan?

After all, Huo Yuxuan and Nangong Jin were very good friends.

Standing up for a good friend's girlfriend should be normal, right?

Everyone present seemed to have reached a consensus, directing all their gazes towards Huo Yuxuan.

Then, the things they had said earlier were repeated and directed at Huo Yuxuan.

"You, have you misunderstood..." Huo Yuxuan's head ached. He felt like everyone was setting him up.

He had just finished his business and rushed here immediately. But these people, with their words, would push him into an abyss. If he remembered correctly, he had no connection with these people.

Why were these people trying to trap him?

Did he look like someone so easy to bully?

As Huo Yuxuan was contemplating how to explain this matter, he sensed a scorching gaze fixed on him, almost as if it wanted to tear him apart.

Huo Yuxuan immediately trembled all over.

Were these people blind?

Didn't they see that An Nuan and Nangong Jin were a couple?

He was truly going to be badly harmed by these two people.

"Are you all blind? Miss An and Mr. Nangong are a match made in heaven. What business do I have here?" Huo Yuxuan directly retorted, without any hesitation.

This was a matter of survival, so he naturally wouldn't be careless.

Upon hearing Huo Yuxuan's words, those who had been saying nice things were directly stunned.

If that was the case, everything they had done was wrong.

Thinking about it, they felt incredibly awkward.

They each wanted to say something to explain, but they couldn't utter a word.

Huo Yuxuan looked at the people before him and directly roared, "Say something nice, words of blessing, without repetition, to bless Miss An and Mr. Nangong."

Huo Yuxuan turned to Nangong Jin, his fierce demeanor gone, and said ingratiatingly, "Nangong Jin, what I said, does it sound good?"

"What I said, is it acceptable?"

Seeing that Nangong Jin's expression remained dark, Huo Yuxuan realized.

Alright, at this moment he should be talking to An Nuan, not Nangong Jin.

He immediately put on a smile, beaming, and said, "An Nuan, what do you think of my suggestion?"

"Of course, if you don't think it's enough, I can have them keep saying it until you are satisfied."

"This matter..." An Nuan looked at Huo Yuxuan, completely speechless.

This matter was completely different from what he was talking about.

An Nuan was instantly filled with helplessness.

She wanted to argue, but as she opened her mouth, she immediately closed it again.

"Mm, I think this suggestion is good," Nangong Jin said with a smile, appearing very satisfied with Huo Yuxuan's proposal.

His gaze fell on An Nuan, who looked bewildered, and he said with a light laugh, "An Nuan, what do you think? What do you think of Huo Yuxuan's suggestion?"

"If you have any better suggestions, you can state them."

"I..."

Nangong Jin stared intently at An Nuan, fearing that she would utter a refusal.

"Mm, it's fine. As long as you're happy," An Nuan said calmly.

If this matter could make Nangong Jin happy, then let it proceed.

It wasn't such a bad idea.

At this moment, Huo Yuxuan's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled.

He had been truly afraid that An Nuan would reject his suggestion.

If she had refused, the one who would have suffered would have been him.
