Chapter 70: Chapter 70: He’s Not Good Enough for You

Chen Yong and Yang Wenyu quickly left.

Yang Qunying laughed awkwardly.

Not far away, Meng Cheng’an, who was pulling cables, paused his work and stole a glance at Tian Xiang a few steps away, a satisfied smile curling on his lips.

At this moment, Tao Huilan and Xia Yue arrived one after the other, along with two other people from the neighborhood committee.

Seeing more and more people arriving, Yang Qunying, realizing she couldn’t help much, exchanged a glance with her sister-in-law and, taking advantage of the dimming sky, they moved to the edge of the square.

As soon as they met, the Yang family’s sister-in-law said, "What’s her deal? Shy?"

The Yang family’s sister-in-law had been paying close attention to the situation over there. Although she couldn’t hear much, she had a general idea of what was going on.

Yang Qunying was trying to create an opportunity for the two to interact.

Yang Qunying sighed, "Sister-in-law, nothing’s been said out loud, it’s not an official meeting, so it’s normal for the girl not to want to go out together."

An unspoken evaluation is quite disrespectful to the girl.

But the sister-in-law insisted on seeing first; if it didn’t work out, there’s no need to bring it up, avoiding future trouble.

Yang Qunying felt it was inappropriate, but this was the condition for the sister-in-law’s family to come and see the person.

Yang family’s sister-in-law: "Did you mention Wenyu’s job?"

"I did."

"Even after mentioning it, she didn’t want to go out, thinking she’s some fairy? With that attitude, forget it. Xiaoying, I’m telling you, Wenyu’s great job isn’t because he can’t find someone; it’s because we want someone of equal status. In the future, don’t mention girls with these conditions, it’s a waste since our family wouldn’t fancy them anyway."

Originally, when she heard that the girl was from Sanli Lane, the Yang family’s sister-in-law disagreed. But Yang Qunying praised her to the sky, saying she was not only beautiful but also had commendations and newspaper coverage, and even got praised by the director of the Mechanical Factory during this event.

The Yang family’s sister-in-law was curious, so she brought her son to take a look.

The person was indeed pretty, deserving of her son.

But the personality...

The Yang family’s sister-in-law shook her head.

They couldn’t handle such an arrogant girl.

With the Yang family’s sister-in-law’s temper, honestly, Yang Qunying didn’t want to meddle in her nephew’s marriage.

But she really liked that girl Tian Xiang, smart, competent, with a good personality.

Such a person would undoubtedly make a name for herself sooner or later.

If her son were of age, Yang Qunying would introduce her to him, not let anyone else have her.

However, while she had a keen eye, others didn’t see it the same way.

Yang Qunying pursed her lips, thinking of just dropping the matter.

But after all, it was her nephew, and as his aunt, she wanted the best for him.

"Sister-in-law, why don’t you ask Wenyu’s opinion later? I think he seems interested."

Yang family’s sister-in-law: "What do young people know? Marriage is a big deal, and the family needs to oversee it."

Just then, Yang Wenyu returned and saw the two talking on the side, walking over.

The Yang family’s sister-in-law asked her son, "What do you think?"

Yang Wenyu scratched his head, "Mom, what do you think?"

Yang family’s sister-in-law: "Looks alright, but too arrogant, family’s quite average, just let it go."

Yang Wenyu fell silent.

He actually wanted to know her better; the girl was just too pretty.

But since his mom said to forget it, he didn’t say anything.

After all, such an important decision like marriage needed family oversight.

Yang Qunying finally realized she was being overly involved, chuckled, and said, "Alright, take care."

The evening’s lecture was as popular as ever.

With the addition of Chen Yong and Tao Huilan, Tian Xiang no longer had to present from start to finish, allowing them to showcase themselves too.

Chen Yong was fine, with exaggerated behavior and expressions like a clown, making people laugh.

Tao Huilan, on the other hand, was just dryly reciting lines, causing the crowd to heckle shortly thereafter.

As the lecture concluded, everyone helped pack things up, loading props onto the truck.

As before, Meng Cheng’an joined in sending Zhou Jian and his team outside.

As they were about to leave, Meng Cheng’an called out to Tian Xiang, "Wait a moment."

Tian Xiang: "What is it?"

"Something."

The two stood under the streetlight.

Zhou Jian waved to his protégé, "Xiangxiang, we’re leaving now."

Tian Xiang waved back.

After the tricycle left, Tian Xiang smilingly asked Meng Cheng’an, "What’s up?"

Meng Cheng’an: "Earlier, that Yang Wenyu was specifically brought by Director Yang to see you."

Tian Xiang: "I figured."

Meng Cheng’an: "How was it?"

"How was what?"

Meng Cheng’an glanced at her and then into the distance, "I’m talking about Yang Wenyu."

Tian Xiang clicked her tongue, "There’s nothing to it, he just disappeared, clearly not interested in me."

Yang Wenyu was interested in her looks but came across as a mama’s boy. He left quietly, indicating his mom wasn’t interested.

If he’s not interested, then that’s it, saves trouble.

Earlier, when he got close to Tian Xiang, Meng Cheng’an perceived it as a threat; it was only after he left that Meng Cheng’an felt relieved.

Now hearing Tian Xiang say he wasn’t interested in her, Meng Cheng’an felt uncomfortable again.

"He’s not good enough for you."

Tian Xiang laughed, "Who cares? It’s not possible anyway."

Today, neither side was interested in the other.

Coming over quietly to evaluate like that, Tian Xiang disliked it as it was disrespectful.

Tian Xiang: "Is that all you wanted to talk about?"

Meng Cheng’an: "Yes."

She thought he had something serious to discuss.

Tian Xiang: "Then I’m leaving."

Now that it’s said and done.

Meng Cheng’an: "Wait a second."

"Huh? Anything else?"

Meng Cheng’an hesitated, "I’ll walk you."

Tian Xiang: "It’s still early; it’s fine."

It’s around 8:30, and there are still plenty of people on the road, no need to be escorted.

Meng Cheng’an: "I’m not tired."

"Ah?"

Tian Xiang was puzzled.

Meng Cheng’an seeing she didn’t understand, added, "I don’t need to rest now."

You’re not tired, you don’t need rest, how does that relate to walking me?

Tian Xiang was puzzled for a moment, then suddenly remembered.

Oh, yesterday he asked her why she didn’t let him walk her back that day.

She’d said she wanted him to rest early.

Actually, she was just being polite, not wanting to bother him.

But he took it seriously.

Tian Xiang looked directly at Meng Cheng’an, seeing his eyes avoid hers, seemingly afraid to meet her gaze, she suddenly understood.

He, he must be interested in her!

Otherwise, why be so insistent on walking her?

Tian Xiang: "Mr. Meng, you, you’re not, well, interested... are you?"

Oh dear, asking directly like this is really embarrassing!

Beside her, Meng Cheng’an also stared at Tian Xiang, his heart bouncing with her expression and words.

She must have sensed it!

So, what was she going to ask him?

If she asked directly, should he respond and admit it?

Both were somewhat conflicted, drumming their own hearts with thoughts.

Just then, Jiang Qin rode up on her bike and greeted them.

"Tian Xiang, Meng Cheng’an, you’re not heading back yet?"

Tian Xiang: "Just about to, Chairman Jiang, where are you off to this late?"

Jiang Qin: "Something happened over at the resettlement area, I’m going to take a look."

Resettlement area!

Tian Xiang: "What happened?"

Chairman Jiang’s appearance must be related to the Mechanical Factory workers.

Jiang Qin: "Lu Feng jumped into the river..."
