Tangling with the Western Commander

Chapter 340: Chapter 337 Chapter 340: Chapter 337 “We’ll talk tonight; it’s time for dinner. Get up and clean up first.”

Wen Xian heard the man’s voice and slightly raised an eyebrow, “Your friend? How many people came?”

“He’s my friend, just him today. We were classmates in college and served in the same unit for a while.”

Actually, hanging out with Shen Lin was partly because Shen Lin was quite skilled himself, a promising talent back in the day, and partly because he was a man of loyalty and principle.

Despite seeming carefree and irresponsible all day, he actually valued relationships deeply.

However, when it came to girlfriends, he wasn’t so perceptive.

I had seen his girlfriends before, uh, except each time I met them, they looked different.

Wen Xian got up first to tidy up in the washroom, while Lu Xiao straightened out his collar before leaving.

As soon as he stepped out, there was Shen Lin in the yard lighting up and smoking, leaning against the painted red pillars of the porch, a cigarette lazily held between his fingers, leisurely puffing and exhaling smoke.

Seeing him come out, Shen Lin’s lips curved in a half-smile as he approached.

His gaze swept briefly towards the doorway:
“Wow, you run here as soon as you’re back, seems like you’re pretty hooked. Now I’m genuinely curious what kind of woman your sister-in-law is to have you so head over heels.”

After all, it wasn’t like girls hadn’t chased after Lu Xiao before.

During our college days, there was this incredibly beautiful girl in our year, calling her a Goddess wouldn’t be an exaggeration, and he quite liked her, but the girl was hopelessly smitten with Lu Xiao.

But Lu Xiao was not just an iceberg on the outside; even his heart was an iceberg.

He was not someone who could be easily moved by anyone.

So seeing this level of concern now made it all the more puzzling.

Lu Xiao gave him a glance, not intending to keep it from him, especially since Wen Xian would be seen when she came out.

So he said casually, “You know Wen Xian, right?”

He had heard of her, of course, a well-known figure, but he didn’t pay much attention to those matters.

When Shen Lin heard this, he was momentarily stunned, then moved the cigarette away from his lips with a surprised chuckle:
“No way, the girlfriend you got is someone like Wen Xian? Seriously? Well, that’s quite impressive. Wen Xian’s the dream girl of so many men, the red rose in their hearts…!”

He couldn’t help but think of the old times when he heard Lu Xiao mention Wen Xian.

After all, Lu Xiao talking about Wen Xian could only mean that his girlfriend was Wen Xian herself.

And upon hearing this, Lu Xiao’s cool eyes narrowed slightly, and a chilly aura suddenly emanated from him.

His lips parted slightly, “So you mean, she’s also your dream girl, the wild rose in your heart…?”

He spoke with a focused gaze fixed on him.

But Shen Lin, oblivious to the undertones, simply laughed and said, “Of course, I really liked her back in college, even had her posters all over my wall.”

As he spoke, Shen Lin couldn’t help but chuckle again:
“Of course, I always talked about her to you, and you never paid any attention. So, how does it feel now, finding a girlfriend like her after all that? Got a bit of a slap in the face, didn’t you?”

But he was curious, Wen Xian was one of a kind, who could be like her?

However.

After these words fell, he saw Lu Xiao’s face turn ominously dark, and those eyes staring at him grew colder.

“What the hell? Why are you suddenly looking at me like that?”

Shen Lin was bewildered.

But the next second, words slowly came out of Lu Xiao’s mouth, one by one:
“Sorry, my girlfriend isn’t someone like Wen Xian, she’s Wen Xian herself.”
