Gossiping About The Brother-In-Law Who Likes Me [1]


Chen Liguo finally saw the woman come out the door when he finished his last cigarette.

The woman was very beautiful. Her light blue gauze dress swayed in the wind in waves. When Chen Liguo looked at her, she was talking to the man beside her. One could tell that she was very happy just by looking at her demeanor.

Seeing such a scene, Chen Liguo wasn't at ease. His eyebrows furrowed, and his eyes zoned in on the red bar that only he could see above the woman's head.

The red bar was marked with a striking 88. Chen Liguo stared at the bar for a while, hesitated a moment, then extinguished the cigarette in his hand and threw it into the trash can.

"Tongtong." Chen Liguo took a few steps closer and called the woman's name from a distance.

Ran Tongtong was talking to the person beside her, upon hearing Chen Liguo's voice, a look of surprise appeared on her face. She turned to look at Chen Liguo and exclaimed, "Wenyou, you're back!"

Chen Liguo's name in this world is Xu Wenyou, one of Ran Tongtong's pursuers, a perfect spare tire.

"Yeah." Chen Liguo smiled and ruffled his hair, looking a little embarrassed. He said, "I received the invitation you sent me."

"Oh." Ran Tongtong's cheeks reddened and she shyly looked at the man beside her. She asked, "When did you return to the country? Are you planning to leave again?"

Chen Liguo glanced at the man beside Ran Tongtong and knew that Ran Tongtong truly did find her happiness, so why had Ran Tongtong's progress bar not reached one hundred? He had a bad feeling in his heart, but he still put on a smiling expression and said, "I don't know, it depends on the situation."

"Long time no see Wenyou." The man standing beside Ran Tongtong finally spoke. His eyes were filled with vigilance. Evidently, he still cared about how Chen Liguo had pursued Ran Tongtong. He suggested, "If you have time, do you want to have a meal together?"

"No need," said Chen Liguo. "I have something to do, I'll be leaving first."

"Eh, Wenyou?" Ran Tongtong didn't expect Chen Liguo to leave immediately and was caught off guard. She asked, "Are you really not going to go eat with us?"

Chen Liguo was going to refuse but saw a faint gloomy air come from Ran Tongtong. He sighed in his heart and gave a wry smile. "Alright, I won't continue to disturb your conversation."

Ran Tongtong smiled in satisfaction and the three got into the car together and went to the restaurant.

Throughout the car ride, Ran Tongtong asked Chen Liguo if his stay abroad over the past few years had been good. No one had been able to find him when he suddenly left without saying goodbye. It wasn't until a few months later that Chen Liguo told Ran Tongtong that he had left the country and reminded her to not worry herself. Only then was Ran Tongtong able to lay her mind to rest.

The Wenyou that Chen Liguo played in this world should have probably spoken a little more, but he tucked these things away in his heart and stayed silent as Ran Tongtong reminisced about old times. 

When they arrived at the restaurant, three people got off and entered a private room. 

Ran Tongtong ordered Chen Liguo's favorite dish and chatted with him. On the contrary, her fiancé Gao Zheng did not say anything.
