章 125: Can't Be Kind

Sheng Nian was not sure if he believed his friend. Cao Jun often appeared carefree and enjoyed messing around, but his rough exterior belied an inner subtlety few witnessed. Even his jokes, while funny and endearing, concealed a deeper meaning behind them.

"Who are you calling sister-in-law, and what do you mean by saying you want to gain approval to be a live-in son-in-law?" Sheng Nian changed topics.

Cao Jun gained a bashful look, and he twiddled his thumbs. "This... I took a fancy to Su Xue and asked her out, but she rejected me."

"Haha..." Sheng Nian laughed coldly.
