CHAPTER 694: CHAPTER 694: GO ASK MY FIVE GIRLFRIENDS

Lu Xiao had been sitting on the bench for nearly half an hour.

Ultimately, he still couldn’t figure out what he had said wrong.

Isn’t a relationship all about expressing one’s thoughts and feelings to each other clearly?

Always hiding something definitely won’t work.

My logic and argument don’t have any problems either.

"Ah..."

Just as Lu Xiao’s sigh emerged, two figures suddenly burst out from the side.

"Brother Xiao, why are you here? Where’s Vice Department Chief Chen Fu? No, I mean, where’s your wife?" Wu Muli sat to the left of Lu Xiao, his face full of admiration.

That is Chen Fei, after all. Brother Xiao is really fierce, having caught her attentions so quietly.

But thinking about it, it seems reasonable. A woman like Vice Department Director Chen Fei seems like only someone as impressive as Lu Xiao could match her.

"Looking at Brother Xiao’s expression, you’ve most likely had a bit of a quarrel," Mai Ji remarked from the right, with an expression that seemed to see right through him.

Lu Xiao glanced at Wu Muli, then at Mai Ji.

These two clowns, can I really rely on them for advice?

"Indeed, there was a bit of unpleasantness," Lu Xiao nodded, "mainly some issues regarding perspectives."

Upon hearing Lu Xiao’s words, Wu Muli and Mai Ji both looked excited.

Yet another juicy story to savor.

"Brother Xiao, spill the details," Wu Muli raised an eyebrow.

Lu Xiao pondered for a second, then began to narrate.

The narration process was simple, just repeating what he had previously said to Chen Fei.

"After I said all that, she suddenly got angry."

"I don’t understand why. Is there a problem with what I said? There’s no issue at all."

"Shouldn’t two people communicate properly? Shouldn’t they speak their minds?"

"How can we have a relationship if everything has to be guessed?"

Lu Xiao’s emotion gradually became agitated.

Wu Muli and Mai Ji were also frowning by this time.

According to Lu Xiao’s recount, his words indeed didn’t seem problematic. If Vice Department Director Chen Fei got angry simply because Brother Xiao said that, then it was certainly Vice Department Director Chen Fei’s issue.

"Bro, just to clarify, did you only say this? Nothing else?" Mai Ji asked for confirmation.

"No, that’s all I said. Then I told her not to make a fuss without reason," Lu Xiao spread his hands, looking like the wronged victim.

"Hiss~~~" The next moment, Mai Ji and Wu Muli took a sharp breath in unison.

Lu Xiao: ???

What does that mean?

"Bro, how could you say ’making a fuss without reason’!"

"Exactly, which girl can stand those words?"

Lu Xiao opened his mouth, so it wasn’t my perspective that was problematic, but saying ’making a fuss without reason’ had hurt Chen Fei.

"I... I just blurted it out."

"I really didn’t mean to say she was being unreasonable."

"Ah..."

Lu Xiao looked helpless. He meant to smooth things over, but now it seemed their relationship was only getting worse.

"Brother Xiao, how about we give you some advice?" Seeing Lu Xiao’s helpless face, Mai Ji immediately spoke up.

It was evident that Lu Xiao was a bit straightforward in the love department.

But that’s also normal. Brother Xiao was so fierce in his twenties that he probably spent most of his time enhancing his skills, so it’s quite reasonable that he knows less about relationships.

"You two, are you sure you’re reliable?" Lu Xiao was a bit skeptical.

They better not be offering cunning plans that would just make things with Chen Fei go from bad to worse.

"Bang!" The next second, Wu Muli slammed his palm on the bench, then stood up angrily, "Brother Xiao, you may doubt my strength, but don’t doubt my expertise in love! Go ask my five girlfriends if I am capable or not!"

Lu Xiao: o(*￣▽￣*)o

Five girlfriends, not five ex-girlfriends; boy, you’re really skilled at managing your time.

"Alright then, let’s hear your ideas," Lu Xiao nodded, since he was somewhat at a loss anyhow. A drowning man will clutch at a straw, after all.

Wu Muli and Mai Ji looked at each other, then almost simultaneously said: "Ignore her."

Lu Xiao: ???

Ignore Chen Fei?

Are you kidding me?

With Chen Fei already treating me so poorly, if I don’t reciprocate, there’s definitely no chance of rekindling anything.

"Bro, don’t be in a hurry to reject it, let us explain in detail."

Twenty minutes later, Lu Xiao returned to the courtyard by Central Lake.

After Mai Ji and Wu Muli’s thorough explanations, persuasion, and brainwashing, Lu Xiao finally decided to adopt their strategy.

Starting tomorrow, he would maintain distance from Chen Fei, stay aloof, and appear indifferent.
