Chapter 1761: Chapter 1847: You’re Not Going to Crash the Wedding, Are You?
Sure, here’s the translation:
But Su Xuan really didn’t know what to say. He had been missing for two years, and that girl would stupidly wait for you when she couldn’t contact anyone. Beauty fades, and he’s already thirty years old after the New Year.
"Do you know the groom?"
Su Xuan asked softly.
"I don’t know him. Guess he doesn’t want you to know. Actually, you two were a match made in heaven, but alas..."
Su Xuan smiled helplessly and said.
"It’s an old classmate’s engagement party. No matter what, I have to go and bless him!"
"You’re not going to crash the wedding, are you?"
Monkey said with a suspicious look.
"Damn, I’m not crazy. Honestly, a woman marrying me might not necessarily be very happy. You know Ruobing, right? It’s been almost two years, and I only met her once. Let me tell you about someone else; her name is Feng Shanshan. This time she can’t come because of work, and I haven’t seen her in almost three years."
Su Xuan actually felt quite helpless inside. He often felt guilty toward many wives, but he genuinely appreciated those who were willing to be with him.
So, knowing that Pan Chenyu was getting engaged, Su Xuan felt a bit uncomfortable but still hoped for his well-being. As long as he’s happy, Su Xuan would be happier than him.
"What you said makes some sense. If I remember correctly, Pan Chenyu went to the Imperial Capital half a year ago. If you want to attend his wedding, you can visit the Imperial Capital!"
"Aren’t you coming with me? He’s your classmate too!"
"You make it sound so easy. You dumped an entire company on me, and now you’re asking me to go. Who’s going to manage the company?"
"Uh..."
Su Xuan felt awkward at that moment, while Monkey checked the time. Su Xuan curiously commented.
"Is that watch really worth four hundred thousand?"
Su Xuan felt like a storm of curses was raging in his mind, thinking about how the most expensive watch he’d ever worn was one that Chu Wanjun bought for him, worth ten thousand yuan, while Monkey’s watch cost him four hundred thousand.
"Of course it’s real, isn’t it cool?"
Monkey boasted proudly.
"You don’t know, last time the Boss came here for a meeting, I treated him to a meal. When he found out the price of my watch, he fell silent!"
"Damn, I don’t even want to talk to you anymore!"
Su Xuan rolled his eyes, wondering if it was made of diamonds.
"No wonder you can’t win over a sincere girl. You’re so flashy, sincere girls wouldn’t pay attention to you!"
"Really?"
Monkey asked excitedly, as if he had discovered some profound truth.
"Of course, that’s how they portray it on TV. Forget it, today I’ll show you what it’s like to live a humble life. Let’s go play basketball, take off that fancy watch, and we’ll take the bus!"
"Alright, I’ll go and experience it!"
Monkey removed his watch and switched his expensive suit for some of Su Xuan’s affordable clothes.
"Bro, is this the secret to chasing girls? It’s impressive."
"Get lost!"
Su Xuan rolled his eyes. He thought to himself that he always dressed like this. He wasn’t someone who cared much about clothing. As long as it was comfortable, he didn’t mind about brands.
After boarding the bus, Su Xuan and Lei sat separately and discussed how they should overpower each other at the basketball court later.
At this moment, an elderly woman in her sixties boarded the bus with groceries. Out of courtesy, Su Xuan prepared to stand up and offer her his seat, but this elderly lady waved her hand, saying.
"No need."
Su Xuan, being the courteous young man, insisted on offering his seat, especially since he rarely took the bus, so he stood up courteously, saying.
"Auntie, please sit down, I’m getting off soon!"
At this moment, the elderly woman stood up, and as Su Xuan stood, she smiled and said.
"Young man, how old are you?"
Sitting next to Su Xuan, Monkey couldn’t help but roll his eyes, thinking to himself if the lady was planning to introduce her daughter just because he offered his seat.
"I’m almost thirty!"
Su Xuan said casually, realizing how quickly time flew by, never to return.
"You’re three years older than my daughter. My daughter drives a BMW, and yesterday she picked up a Mercedes. Why are you riding the bus to work?"
"Cough, cough..." Su Xuan was almost choked by this sentence, initially thinking the elderly lady was just trying to have a casual chat, but it turned out to be quite a shock, a boasting spree.
Let her brag if she wants to, but why be so ostentatious? What’s the point? It seemed like she was implying that he’s almost thirty, still squeezing onto buses, while her daughter, at twenty-seven, already bought a BMW and switched to a Mercedes.
"Haha..."
In that moment, Monkey almost burst out laughing, truly surprised by the boasting.
Su Xuan smiled awkwardly, preferring not to say much since he didn’t know her. Nowadays, some elderly people really like to show off.
"Young man, have you bought a car?"
The elderly lady seemed to enjoy showing off, now glancing at Monkey, who looked like a pauper.
"Uh..."
"You clearly haven’t, otherwise why squeeze onto the bus? I’m telling you, young people should work hard, otherwise they won’t be able to marry. Look at my daughter, only twenty-seven, drove a BMW for a year and said it’s no good, immediately switched to a Mercedes, costing over eight hundred thousand!"
"Uh..."
Su Xuan rolled his eyes, thinking it was endless.
"Young man, have you bought a house?"
Then the elderly lady looked at Su Xuan again, curiously asking.
"Cough, cough...not yet."
Su Xuan wanted to curse, thinking that offering her a seat didn’t deserve such ingratitude. What was going on?
"Young man, you can’t go on like this. My daughter laughed at you. She’s already bought a house in the city center, costing over a million!"
Monkey was already rolling his eyes, ready to take out his forty-thousand watch to show this old lady. Su Xuan smiled and said.
"Well, Auntie, I really haven’t bought a car, but I bought my parents each a Maserati. It wasn’t very expensive, about seven million per car, and my mom doesn’t have to squeeze onto buses to buy groceries anymore. Young people take the bus for environmental reasons, but at your age, it’s really not safe to squeeze in, so I got them each a car. That car drives really well.
