Chapter 1786: A Tacit Understanding?
An Lan looked at Chen Ke’s oily face and lost her appetite.
Xu Baohan, who had just walked in, heard Chen Ke’s voice and his face turned cold.
Wasn’t this guy the red wine seller he had met at the auditorium entrance? action

He walked toward An Lan with a cold face. She didn’t stand up, just lounging lazily on the chair. Her white sweater outlined her exquisite curves, and her slender white fingers turned the red wine glass in her hand.
She curled her red lips into a smile. “I’m sorry, but I’m good at nothing but making money. Money really can’t move me.”
She said those words to Chen Ke because she didn’t want to insult him in the presence of so many classmates. Moreover, she felt that it was not wise to offend a despicable person like Chen Ke.
Chen Ke did not understand. He laughed shamelessly and said, “Isn’t that just right? We’re both good at making money. We’re a perfect match.”
Although the people at the table were smiling, some of them thought that Chen Ke was going too far.
An Lan’s eyes turned cold, but the smile on her face deepened. “Unfortunately, I just want to find someone who is good-looking and at least 1.85 meters tall. When I go home, he will bring me tea and massage my shoulders. If I want him to go east, he won’t dare to go west...
“If I want him to go west, he won’t dare to go east. After we marry, I can play outside as late as possible and he won’t dare to say a word even if I have a one-night stand or something. I decide when to have a child. Even if I decide not to have a child, he can’t object. Oh right, our children will take my surname. And he can’t cheat on me and loves only me. Besides, he must give me all his income...”
Hearing her words, a smile appeared in everyone’s eyes. An Lan’s tongue was as sharp as ever.
Xu Baohan stopped his steps. He looked at An Lan’s profile with admiration in his eyes, surprised that she’d use such harsh conditions to scare her suitors away, just as he had done. Could this be a tacit understanding between them?
However, there were always some people who didn’t know what was good for them. Chen Ke’s expression darkened and his tone became unfriendly. “An Lan, don’t joke around. No man would dare to accept you with such conditions...”
An Lan continued with a smile on her lips, “You don’t even meet the first requirement. I’m talking about good looks.”

“Everyone has their own criteria for choosing a spouse. Just because you’re good at selling wine, do you think you’re can force others to choose you?” Xu Baohan’s cold voice came from behind them.
The people who had been watching the show finally noticed Xu Baohan’s presence.
“Senior Xu?” Cao Meng immediately stood up, feeling flattered.
“They sent me over to have a drink with you guys.” Xu Baohan raised his glass and said, “Everyone, work hard and strive to become outstanding judges, prosecutors and lawyers.”
“Thank you, senior Xu, for your encouragement.” Everyone stood up in pleasant surprise.
An Lan had no choice but to stand up as well. Xu Baohan was standing right between her and Li Shuang. His body leaned slightly towards her, and she felt hot in the air-conditioned room due to the warmth from his body.
An Lan raised her head to look at him, just in time to see him swallow the content from his cup. His Adam’s apple moved sexily.
