After the divorce, I became a mountain god

At this moment, Zhao Yuntao spoke up, saying to Panpan, "Little Panpan, you're just a child and don't understand. The reason why your beautiful sister doesn't have a boyfriend yet is that she doesn't find ordinary guys attractive!"

After hearing Zhao Yuntao's words, Panpan nodded and said, "What this handsome brother said makes so much sense. It's true that ordinary people wouldn't be interested in such a beautiful fairy sister!"

Zhao Yuntao looked at Panpan and said, "Little Panpan, what kind of person do you think is worthy of someone as beautiful as your Sister Bai?"

Panpan blinked her big eyes at Zhao Yuntao and said, "Handsome uncle, Panpan doesn't know many people and can't think of a suitable person for a while!"

Zhao Yuntao was very interested in the topic Panpan was talking about, so he kept discussing it, trying to steer the conversation toward Xu Bo'an and Bai Susu.

So Zhao Yuntao said to Panpan, "Little Panpan, let's take an example. If you had to choose among the people here, who do you think is worthy of such a beautiful sister like you, Bai Jie?"

Xu Bo'an looked at Zhao Yuntao and said irritably, "You better not corrupt my goddaughter!"

Zhao Yuntao looked at Xu Bo'an with a sly smile and said, "Hehe, I was just using an analogy, wasn't I?"

Xu Bo'an glanced at Zhao Yuntao but didn't say anything more.

After hearing Zhao Yuntao's question, Panpan glanced around at everyone present, then looked thoughtful. After a while, she said, "This is a difficult question. My dad already has a wife, so I can only choose between you and my godfather! Oh, I see. You've been discussing this with me for so long, could it be that you want to pursue Sister Bai?"

Zhao Yuntao had originally intended to shift the blame to Xu Bo'an and Bai Susu, but unexpectedly, the little guy had brought the issue to him. It wasn't that Zhao Yuntao disliked or disliked Bai Susu; on the contrary, he thought she was very beautiful. If Bai Susu liked him, Zhao Yuntao would definitely agree without hesitation. However, Zhao Yuntao knew perfectly well that Bai Susu loved Xu Bo'an! He had no chance!

They're both adults. Since she already has someone she loves, Zhao Yuntao definitely won't challenge Bai Susu.

Moreover, he had a bet with Xu Bo'an. Since he and Bai Susu were not destined to be together, he should at least win the bet, right? You can't have it both ways, so he should at least get one of the benefits!
Upon hearing Panpan's words, Bai Susu and Zhao Yuntao waved their hands simultaneously. Panpan, after all, was still a kindergarten student and couldn't resist Zhao Yuntao's persuasion. Bai Susu then fixed her gaze on Xu Bo'an and excitedly said, "I know, I know! Only someone as beautiful as Sister Bai is worthy of my godfather!"

The little girl was so excited, as if she had discovered a new continent; she was very happy.

Panpan's words struck a chord with Bai Susu and Zhao Yuntao. This time, Bai Susu didn't argue at all. Instead, she lowered her head and didn't even realize that she was looking shy. After hearing Panpan's words, Zhao Yuntao smiled and said to her, "Little Panpan, although you are young, how come you have such good taste?"

Panpan was even happier after receiving Zhao Yuntao's praise, and said to Zhao Yuntao, "That's for sure, my godfather is very handsome! And Sister Bai is like a fairy descended from heaven. If the two of them were together, they would be a match made in heaven!"

Upon hearing Panpan's words, Ma Lu quickly said to Bai Susu, "Dr. Bai, the child is just being silly, please don't take offense!"

Bai Susu shook her head and said to Ma Lu, "It's alright, children say the darndest things, I don't mind!"

Just now, when Panpan mentioned to Zhao Yuntao whether he wanted to pursue Bai Susu, Bai Susu immediately waved her hand in refusal, her expression showing resistance. However, now that Panpan said Bai Susu and Xu Bo'an were a good match, Bai Susu showed no resistance at all. Ma Lu also noticed the shy look on Bai Susu's face when Xu Bo'an was mentioned earlier. This means that Bai Susu probably likes Xu Bo'an.

The reason Ma Lu told Bai Susu that Panpan was just a child and didn't know any better was because he saw Bai Susu's somewhat shy face and was afraid that Bai Susu would be embarrassed in front of so many people. After all, when his mother-in-law was hospitalized at Dongjiang Second Hospital, Dr. Bai Susu took good care of them!

Moreover, Ma Lu wasn't exactly a seasoned player in the dating scene, and he was worried that if he guessed wrong, it wouldn't be appropriate to say such things in front of so many people. That's why he apologized to Bai Susu. Unexpectedly, Bai Susu didn't mind at all!

When Panpan heard her father Ma Lu say that, she quickly covered her mouth and said to her father, "Dad, I'm not saying this because you're not handsome or outstanding. On the contrary, in Panpan's heart you are the most handsome and outstanding dad. It's just that you already have a wife, so you're not in the running!"

Ma Lu gently pinched Panpan's little nose, looking at her with eyes full of affection, and said, "You little girl, your little mouth is as sweet as honey every day!"

When Ma Lu and Shi Xinyi first brought Panpan home, Panpan wasn't very talkative. But now, after spending so much time together, the family is all very happy and harmonious. Panpan is no longer as cautious in front of them as before. If no one told her, outsiders would never guess that Panpan was adopted by Ma Lu.

Ma Lu was quite happy to see Panpan speaking so confidently and openly with others. He hoped that his daughter would be the kind of cheerful, outgoing, and talkative person she was.

Seeing that Sister Bai Susu did not refute her words, the innocent Panpan looked at Xu Bo'an and said, "Godfather, you see, Sister Bai didn't object to what I said. If she doesn't object, then she agrees. What about you?"

Zhao Yuntao was overjoyed to hear Panpan ask Xu Bo'an this question. When Xu Bo'an first brought Ma Lu and his family over to have dinner together, Zhao Yuntao was quite happy, worried that with so many people, he wouldn't be able to matchmake Bai Susu and Xu Bo'an. But now, with the clever little Panpan around, he didn't even have to say a word. This was exactly what he wanted, as this was the question he cared about most.

As soon as Panpan said this, everyone looked at Xu Bo'an with gossipy eyes. However, apart from Bai Susu, it wasn't that she didn't want to know. On the contrary, she actually wanted to know the impression she left on Xu Bo'an. It was just that she felt a little embarrassed to look at Xu Bo'an when faced with this question because of the inexplicable feeling she had for him that she herself didn't understand.

When Xu Bo'an heard Panpan's question, he didn't avoid the issue but instead said to Panpan very frankly, "Your sister Bai is very outstanding and very beautiful!"

Bai Susu felt inexplicably happy after hearing Xu Bo'an's praise. She didn't know why, but one compliment from Xu Bo'an made her happier than ten compliments from others. Her cheeks even flushed slightly. Panpan, upon hearing Xu Bo'an's words, clapped her hands excitedly and exclaimed, "Great! Great! I'll have a godmother soon!"

It has to be said that having a child present makes the atmosphere more lively. After Panpan finished speaking, she happily ate the delicious food on the table.

Zhao Yuntao chimed in, "Mr. Xu, look, even a child can see that you and Dr. Bai are a match made in heaven!"

Xu Bo'an glanced at Zhao Yuntao and said, "Isn't this all thanks to you?"

Zhao Yuntao looked at Xu Bo'an with a sly smile and said, "I didn't do anything. It's all because our little Panpan has such a discerning eye!"

Xu Bo'an looked at Zhao Yuntao and said irritably, "Even eating can't shut you up! Eat your food properly!"

Zhao Yuntao chuckled at Xu Bo'an and then buried his head in his food.

After finishing their meal, the group left the restaurant together.
Although Ma Lu has been in Dongjiang for some time now, he was initially focused on expanding the market in Weizhou. After returning, he and Shi Xinyi were busy taking care of his sick mother-in-law. Xu Bo'an had just arranged for Ma Lu and Shi Xinyi to work at his Kangtai Pharmaceutical Factory, and Ma Lu had finally gained a foothold in Dongjiang. However, because he wanted to buy a house first, he hadn't been willing to buy a car yet!

Xu Bo'an knew about the Ma Lu family's situation, so he arranged for Zhao Yuntao to send Bai Susu back, while he himself would send the Ma Lu family back.

After saying goodbye, the two groups drove off separately.

Zhao Yuntao was quite satisfied with this arrangement. He knew that Bai Susu was currently single, and in the car, Zhao Yuntao couldn't wait to tentatively ask Bai Susu, "Dr. Bai, Panpan just said that you and Xu Bo'an are a good match. What do you think?"

After hearing Zhao Yuntao's words, Bai Susu said embarrassedly, "That was just something a child would say casually, you actually took it seriously!"

Zhao Yuntao said, "Don't underestimate children. They can be very accurate. But speaking of which, I think you and Bo'an are a very good match!"

Bai Susu said, "Do you really think so?"

As soon as she spoke, Bai Susu felt that she seemed to be too eager, as if she cared too much about this matter!
Realizing what she had said, she quickly changed her tune and said to Zhao Yuntao, "Xu Bo'an is so outstanding, you... how do you think we're a good match?"

Zhao Yuntao chuckled and said, "Xu Bo'an is very outstanding, but your conditions are also quite good! I wonder what that Xu Bo'an guy is thinking. You know, now that he's so outstanding, he should be finding a suitable person to marry by now, so why hasn't he made a move yet?"

Bai Susu said to Zhao Yuntao, "Maybe he just doesn't want to get married at all!"

Zhao Yuntao nodded and said, "That's possible. I heard from others that Xu Bo'an's vicious ex-wife hurt him a lot. Maybe that's why Xu Bo'an is reluctant to face marriage now!"

Bai Susu said, "I've heard about this too. How could such an outstanding man's ex-wife do such a thing? Honestly, I feel sorry for her losing such a good man as Xu Bo'an!"

Zhao Yuntao could clearly sense Bai Susu's affection for Xu Bo'an from her words. He said to Bai Susu, "That's all in the past. People should look forward. I think he should start a new life! If there's a woman like you who likes him, cares for him, is considerate of him, and gives him warmth, I think Xu Bo'an would definitely accept her! Don't you think so?"

Bai Susu said, "Maybe!"

Zhao Yuntao then added fuel to the fire, saying to Bai Susu, "A man like Xu Bo'an, who has been hurt so deeply before, would never take the initiative to express his love to any woman. He needs someone else to express it to him first. They say it's easy for a man to pursue a woman, but easy for a woman to pursue a man. Anyway, I, Zhao Yuntao, have already decided that you are my sister-in-law. Don't let other women get the upper hand. If you muster up the courage to confess to Bo'an, I think Bo'an will definitely agree!"

Every word Zhao Yuntao said was blatant manipulation of Bai Susu, urging her to hurry up and confess her feelings to Xu Bo'an.

Bai Susu was a gentle and quiet girl who had never actively pursued any boy. She wasn't very good at this kind of thing. After hearing Zhao Yuntao's words, Bai Susu just coughed lightly a few times and did not respond to Zhao Yuntao directly.

Zhao Yuntao kept stirring things up for Bai Susu, eager for her to take the initiative to express her love for Xu Bo'an!
Meanwhile, Xu Bo'an and the others were concerned about Panpan's situation. Xu Bo'an, who was driving, said to Ma Lu, "What time does Panpan go to school tomorrow? I'll pick you up and we can go together to find out about Panpan's situation at school!"

Ma Lu said, "You're so busy, you don't need to worry about this. I can handle it myself!"

Xu Bo'an said, "No matter how busy I am, I have to go to my goddaughter's place. Besides, judging from the aggressive attitude of that family, it would be safer for me to go with you. After all, I have some connections in Dongjiang. If the school doesn't handle this properly, I can still use my network. I can't let our Panpan be wronged at school, can I?"

After listening to Xu Bo'an's words, Ma Lu realized that the family was indeed not a good family. A wealthy family like theirs must have connections and influence in Dongjiang, while he himself was just a rootless duckweed in Dongjiang, except for Xu Bo'an. If he went alone, he might not only end up empty-handed but also cause Panpan to suffer again. (End of Chapter)
