Han Sheng saw Chen Xinhui arrive and immediately said in a low voice, "Don't you dare say anything out of line. What's so bad about this place? You're a guest in someone's home, can't you be a little polite?"
However, Han Guoliang, despite clearly seeing Chen Xinhui and Wu Tian enter, continued to mutter unhappily, "Just country folk, and you expect me to be polite to them? Do they deserve it?"
Chen Xinhui and Wu Tian both heard his words. Chen Xinhui immediately showed an embarrassed expression.
Wu Tian's brow, however, creased slightly.
It seemed this fellow wasn't a good person at all!
Han Sheng quickly stood up and said, "Brother Chen, you're here. I'm truly sorry. My son, he's been spoiled in the city and speaks rather impolitely. I hope you can forgive him."
Chen Xinhui, being an honest and upright person, smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing. Young people, they speak without thinking, it's very normal. I understand."
Han Sheng smiled sheepishly, then saw Wu Tian and couldn't help but ask, "Brother Chen, who is this?"
Wu Tian immediately smiled and said, "Uncle Han, hello, hello. I'm the village doctor here."
Chen Xinhui added, "Wu Tian is visiting us, so I invited him to come eat with us."
"So that's how it is," Han Sheng nodded at Wu Tian. "To be a village doctor at such a young age, it seems you're quite capable, young man!"
Wu Tian was just about to respond politely.
But unexpectedly, Han Guoliang said disdainfully, "Capable? He's only a village doctor because he's incompetent."
"In my opinion, village doctors are those who have been weeded out."
"After all, truly capable people are already working in hospitals. Who would want to be some lousy village doctor!"
Wu Tian's brows furrowed at Han Guoliang's words. He thought this kid was truly arrogant, how could he speak so nastily?
In the end, it was Han Sheng who said, "Wu Tian, I'm truly sorry. My son speaks like this, please don't take it to heart!"
For Han Sheng's sake, Wu Tian didn't say anything more. He smiled and sat down.
Then, Chen Xinhui immediately brought over several bowls of candy.
He smiled and said to everyone, "Come, come, everyone, have some candy. Don't be shy!"
Han Sheng took a few candies for Han Guoliang and said, "Son, don't you like sweets? Now your Uncle Chen has brought so much candy, why don't you try some?"
Han Guoliang glanced at the candies and then said disdainfully, "Dad, are you kidding me?"
"I may like candy, but that doesn't mean I have no standards!"
"You know, I only eat imported candy, the kind that costs hundreds of yuan a box."
"Look at these candies, what kind of unknown brand are they? You can buy a big handful for a few bucks. Forget eating them, I'm afraid even the dogs would reject them!"
"Son!" Seeing Han Guoliang getting more and more out of line, Han Sheng's face turned cold, and he reprimanded him.
"If you keep talking like this, then you can go back by yourself. I won't bother with you anymore!"
But even though Han Sheng was angry, Han Guoliang still showed no sign of admitting fault.
Instead, he snorted and said, "I didn't want to come in the first place. I'd be glad to leave this dump."
"You!" Han Sheng was about to scold him when Chen Xinhui quickly said, "Alright, alright. This is the countryside, it's naturally not comparable to the city. Guoliang isn't wrong. You should calm down."
Han Sheng swallowed his anger and stopped scolding Han Guoliang.
Wu Tian looked at Han Guoliang's insufferable demeanor and felt a surge of disgust.
This guy, just being from a county town, was already so arrogant. If he were from the city, he'd probably want to slaughter all the country folk!
He really didn't know where this sense of superiority came from!
Such a person was truly detestable!
If it weren't for the sake of Chen Xinhui and Chen Xuan's feelings, Wu Tian would have left right then and there.
Chen Xinhui and Han Sheng continued to chat. Wu Tian, bored, just ate candy and looked at his phone, not participating in their conversation.
Han Guoliang still had an impatient look, as if even sitting on the sofa made him restless, as if there was something unclean on the sofa.
He suddenly said, "Is there Wi-Fi here? I want to watch a movie."
Chen Xinhui had no idea what Wi-Fi was.
He said blankly, "What's 'wai ai'? I've never heard of it."
Han Guoliang said with great disdain, "How can you not even know what Wi-Fi is? Are you even a modern person? Country folk are just uncultured, it's annoying just looking at them."
Han Sheng no longer wanted to scold Han Guoliang.
He smiled apologetically at Chen Xinhui and said, "Brother Chen, please ignore him. Wi-Fi means wireless network. If there isn't one, then there isn't one. He can just use his data."
Han Guoliang still said disdainfully, "I'd like to use data, but look at this lousy place. The signal is weak as anything, it's so annoying!"
"Dad, what's so fun about this place? Why don't we just go back."
"Let's not eat this meal either. I'm afraid if I eat their food later, I'll get diarrhea!"
Han Sheng finally couldn't take it anymore. His face flushed red as he angrily reprimanded, "That's enough! I'm not leaving. If you want to leave, then you go back by yourself!"
Han Guoliang didn't spare Han Sheng's feelings either. He put his phone in his pocket and then whistled, "Fine, I'll go back then. I didn't want to stay here anyway!"
Han Guoliang was just about to leave.
But at that moment, Chen Xuan walked in, smiling and saying, "Dad, I've prepared the dishes. When are we eating?"
Han Guoliang's footsteps suddenly stopped. His gaze towards Chen Xuan became stiff.
Then, he began to size up Chen Xuan's body.
Today, Chen Xuan was wearing a simple, plain colored long dress. Her figure was slender and graceful, and her appearance was youthful and moving, like a beautiful lotus.
She noticed Han Guoliang's gaze, and her heart trembled slightly. She then shyly averted his eyes.
Chen Xinhui smiled and said, "Start cooking now. It's getting late, let's eat early!"
Chen Xuan nodded and then went out to cook.
After Chen Xuan had been gone for a full five seconds, Han Guoliang was still looking in the direction she had left.
Suddenly, he turned back and sat down on the sofa.
Han Sheng was somewhat surprised by this. He said coldly, "Why did you come back? Weren't you going back alone?"
Han Guoliang didn't answer him. Instead, he looked at Chen Xinhui and said, "That girl just now, is she your daughter?"
