289: After Modification: Chapter 289 – A Strong Sense of Jealousy 289: After Modification: Chapter 289 – A Strong Sense of Jealousy Wu Youliang, who was working, glanced at Wu Xiaoyu, took out the key, handed it to Wu Xiaoyu, and said, “Here’s the key.

You go home first.

I’ll help Dashou and the others for a while longer!”

Before Wu Xiaoyu could speak, Wu Dashou next to him said with a smile, “Uncle, you’d better go home!

Xiaoyu might want to report about the matchmaking to you!”

Sister-in-law Cuihua also raised her head upon hearing this, and looked at Wu Xiaoyu with a playful expression, saying with a smile, “Xiaoyu, quickly tell Sister-in-law, what does that girl look like?”

Liu Cuihua accidentally discovered the relationship between Wu Xiaoyu and Li Yujia last time, so she felt awkward to join in the jokes about Wu Xiaoyu’s matchmaking.

She gave Wu Xiaoyu a strange look, then glanced at Li Yujia secretly, and went back to her work.

Wu Youliang saw everyone teasing his son and pretended to be serious, “Get back to work!

Stop with the nonsense, or I’ll dock your pay!”

Sister-in-law grinned as she worked, “If Xiaoyu’s matchmaking succeeds, I’d be more than happy, even if I don’t get paid!”

Liu Cuihua, hearing the jokes about salaries, chipped in, “As if you’d ever give up your salary, you miser!

Who are you trying to fool?”

Amidst the laughter, Li Yujia remained silent and gloomy, busy with her tasks.

Wu Xiaoyu knew she was probably jealous.

Though he felt a bit guilty, he was more joyful, as it’s kind of sweet to have someone be jealous because of you.

Seeing Li Yujia like this, Wu Xiaoyu couldn’t help but tease, “The girl I met today has decent conditions, but…”

He deliberately elongated his speech, hoping to see Li Yujia’s reaction.

Sure enough, when Li Yujia heard him say that the girl’s conditions were good, she was stunned.

In the workshop, everyone stopped working, wanting to hear more about the girl.

Wu Youliang was even more impatient, “But what?

What’s the issue?

Is there something wrong with the girl?

Is she short?”

Everyone in the workshop became anxious, eagerly waiting for Wu Xiaoyu’s continuation.

Wu Xiaoyu looked at Li Yujia and smiled, “Even though the girl’s conditions are good, she’s quite ugly compared to Jiajia!”

Li Yujia was astonished, looking at Wu Xiaoyu in disbelief, upon hearing him say this in front of everyone.

Standing beside Li Yujia, Liu Cuihua, although aware of their relationship, was curious about Wu Xiaoyu openly praising Li Yujia’s beauty.

Weren’t they supposed to keep their relationship a secret?

Weren’t they afraid of gossip?

How come they seem to be ready to go public now?

And isn’t he worried about Wu Youliang’s disapproval, doing this in front of him?

Wu Xiaoyu is pretty gutsy!

However, apart from Li Yujia and Liu Cuihua, everyone else didn’t seem to find anything unusual, instead, they laughed and joked, “Xiaoyu, you’re something!

Of all people to compare with, why Jiajia?

Who can be more beautiful than Jiajia?”

Li Yujia sighed in relief seeing that everyone didn’t catch the deeper meaning behind his words.

Feigning calmness, she said humbly, “Stop teasing me!

There are plenty of people more beautiful than me!”

Sister-in-law Cuihua turned to look at Li Yujia up and down, then with a serious expression said, “There are indeed people better looking!

Like our sister-in-law Cuihua standing next to you, she looks good!

How about sister-in-law Cuihua becoming Xiaoyu’s wife?”

Liu Cuihua, feeling teased, replied quickly, “Seems like Dashan isn’t feeding you well?

What’s with your foul mouth?”

With the conversation straying further off-topic, Wu Xiaoyu, feeling awkward as an elder, handed over his work to Wu Dashou and went home to unlock the door.

After his father left, Wu Xiaoyu pretended to be serious and said, “Alright, stop messing around.

Get back to work.

There are a lot of orders now, plenty to keep you busy!”

Seeing that the factory director and the person involved had spoken, everyone stopped making jokes about his matchmaking and got back to work.

Wu Xiaoyu watched for a while and saw that Li Yujia still avoided his gaze, he then said to her, “Jiajia, come over.

Let’s discuss the production plan!”

Seeing it was work-related, Li Yujia couldn’t refuse, so she took off her gloves, mask, and hat, and followed him out.

After they left the workshop, Liu Cuihua couldn’t help but laugh.

Are they going to…

act so urgently?

Today Wu Xiaoyu went for a blind date, Jiajia might be upset about it.

Can he pacify her?

Sister-in-law Cuihua, seeing Liu Cuihua laughing foolishly, asked curiously, “Sister-in-law Cuihua, what’s so funny?”

Liu Cuihua quickly restrained her laughter and said with a hint of nervousness, “Nothing, nothing!”

Wu Xiaoyu took Li Yujia to the meeting room, locked the door, and walked towards her with a sly smile.

Li Yujia thought he was going to do something outrageous, and retreated a few steps, leaning against the table, nervously asking, “What…

what are you doing?”

Her nervous and slightly fearful look made Wu Xiaoyu laugh uncontrollably.

Did she really think of him as a pervert?

Although he had watched some Japanese OL series, having grown up under Chinese civilization for over twenty years, how could he act like those beasts?

“I’m not doing anything!

What could I do in a meeting room?” Wu Xiaoyu restrained his smile and asked, pretending to be ignorant.

Realizing he was teasing her, Li Yujia frowned slightly and said in a complaining tone, “Who knows what you did with your blind date?”

Wu Xiaoyu knew she was still jealous and blaming him, as she brought up the blind date again.

He sighed helplessly, took a few steps forward, and earnestly said, “I had no idea about the matchmaking!

I went to the county to promote mushroom sauce the other day, only to find out my mom arranged a matchmaking with Aunt Qi!”

Li Yujia knew about his trip to promote mushroom sauce before.

Seeing Wu Xiaoyu explaining so seriously, her doubts were eased.

But still, he went on a matchmaking, and everyone in the village knew about it.

In the future…

more people might try to introduce girls to him, right?

“I don’t care!

Do whatever you want!” Li Yujia pretended to be angry.

Wu Xiaoyu knew she was not unreasonable, her anger was most likely a joke or a warning to him.

“Rest assured!

I won’t fall for my mom’s tricks again!” Wu Xiaoyu swore earnestly.

Touched by how much he cared about her feelings, Li Yujia didn’t want to press him further and quickly changed the topic, “Didn’t you say we need to discuss the production plan?”

Amused by her awkward change of topic, Wu Xiaoyu smiled and said, “Alright, let’s talk business!

How many boxes of mushroom sauce can we produce daily now?”

Regaining her composure, Li Yujia seriously said, “About one hundred and twenty boxes.

Mainly because there’s not much demand, to reduce inventory, we’re not at full production!”
