The people at the side immediately and politely replied, “Yes, Second Young master. We have already stopped her blind date. You can go over now.”
The other party looked up and took off his sunglasses from his tall nose bridge.
He pushed open the car door and his slender legs took a step forward. “Leave my car here and you guys can leave. By the way, help me tell my older brother that I will complete the mission he gave me.”
“Second young master, do you want to leave a bodyguard behind…”
The young man impatiently waved his hand. “Go, go, go. Don’t disrupt me. I am not like my brother or my dad. I don’t have political enemies so why do I need a bodyguard?”
“Alright then.”
Since he insisted, the other party cannot say anything further.
…
Second Young master Yu entered the cafeteria and sized Xia Xingchen up.
From his point of view, he could only see her side-profile. Just solely looking at her side-profile, he could see that her features were very pretty. She was holding a book and seemed to be very attentive to what she was reading. She did not seem like she came on a blind date and instead, looked more like an obedient student who took her studies seriously.
Somebody knocked on her table.
It was not until then that Xia Xingchen raised her head from the book. When she saw him, she froze slightly. She hadn’t opened her mouth to speak when the other party smugly sat opposite her. His attractive and alluring eyes took a glance at her and then he waved his hand to call the waiter.
“Sir, would you like to drink anything?”
“Water please and add one and a half cubes of ice.” The man had a brilliant smile, and when he raised his eyebrows to face the waitress, his eyes seemed to shine as though spring had arrived. This made the waitress’s cheeks flushed red immediately.
This man… was really very handsome.
He had a slender figure. Although he did not seem as tall as 188cm, he was at least 185 cm or taller.
Bai Yeqing was considered to be one of the top few handsome guys Xia Xingchen had ever seen but the man before her was not any worse than Bai Yeqing. It was just that Bai Yeqing seemed to be more reserved and dependable, while the other guy… seemed more frivolous and even a little dandy.
But wait a minute! Why did she mention Bai Yeqing all of a sudden? It did not even concern him.
Xia Xingchen was a little annoyed at herself before coming out of her trance to focus on the man before her. She was suspicious as to whether he was really the divorcee that Grandma mentioned.
“You’ve looked at me for so long. Am I that handsome?”
The man suddenly asked her with a huge smile on his face.
Since they were very close to each other and his handsome face was in the way, Xia Xingchen felt a little dizzy. She closed the book and adjusted her posture. “Mister, did you walk into the wrong place?”
“Xia Xingchen. Blind date. Am I right?”
“…Yes.”
“Yu Zenan, your blind date.” He initiated to shake her hand by reaching his hand out.
Xia Xingchen still was in slight disbelief that this person was really her blind date. She carefully reached her hand out and shook his hand.
…..
Before they met each other, Xia Xingchen thought that he would be a boring and old-fashioned man. However, once she got to know him, she realized that he was very young, interesting, and even humorous. He was totally different from how Grandma described him to her. Either way, she was still happy that it was different.
Otherwise, even sitting with him for another minute would be very torturous.
She sat with Yu Zenan at the cafeteria for the whole afternoon. Both of them chatted about anything under the sun and Xia Xingchen realized that be it work or life, he could catch on the topic very fast and well.
The atmosphere between them was very light-hearted and lively. After chatting for an afternoon, they also ate dinner together.
………….
At the same time.
At the President Manor.
Mr. President suddenly came back and the people in the house immediately got busy. The kitchen staff also prepared many dishes.
Bai Yeqing stayed in his study room for a while before coming out. However, by then, it was already evening. Finely made dishes were laid on the dining table at the cafeteria and the butler was already waiting there. On the other side of the hall, the maid was bringing Little master out.
“Dad,” greeted Xia Dabai.
Bai Yeqing carried him onto his toddler seat and asked, “Are you hungry?”
“I’m still okay.”
He sat on the master seat and took his chopsticks. He scanned his surroundings and asked the butler, “Where’s Miss Xia?”
“Miss Xia went out this afternoon and had just called to say that she would eat dinner with her friends before coming back.”
He gave a ‘hmm,’ signifying that he understood.
Xia Dabai took a sip of his soup and added, “Big baby Xia went for a blind date.”
“What?” He turned to the side and glanced at his son.
“Yup, I encouraged Big baby Xia to go for the blind date. She liked my Little aunt’s husband but he did not like her and even wanted to marry Little aunt. How tragic! Hence, she is going to find a good man to marry her! Uncle Butler, tell me, my Big baby Xia will definitely find a good man to marry her, am I right?” Xia Dabai turned around to face the butler behind him.
The butler chuckled. “Miss Xia is a reasonable person and is so considerate and nice. She definitely would find a good man to marry her. Besides, she ate lunch with someone today and even ate dinner together. It seems that they got along well. Who knows? Perhaps, she has met her destined one.”
“Uncle butler is right. In the future, when Big baby Xia gets married, she will definitely invite you to her wedding.”
Bai Yeqing glanced and saw the bright smile on his son’s face and remembered the woman who had a happy time with her blind date. His facial expression immediately turned sour while his thin lips faintly opened to say, “Alright, let’s eat.”
Xia Dabai replied with an ‘Oh’ before he obediently ate his dinner. The butler silently observed the slight change of expression in the President’s face and thought of something, but he did not dare to speak about Miss Xia’s blind date anymore.
Bai Yeqing initially had a good appetite however, the food in front of him suddenly tasted bland.
He only ate a few bites and placed his chopsticks down.
………….
They had eaten dinner and when it was time to pay the bill, Yu Zenan realized that his wallet was missing.
Damn it!
When that rascal—Ah Xian—left, he gave him the car but he forgot to give him his gold card.
Xia Xingchen noticed his odd behavior and smiled before paying the bill. Yu Zenan quickly caught up with her. “I owe you a meal so next time, I must pay for it.”
“What do you mean by owing me a meal? You are not the only one who ate.”
“No way, I feel ashamed to make a girl pay.” Yu Zenan was driving an Aston Martin sports car. It noisily stopped at the side of the road and looked very striking. He opened the front passenger door. “Come on, I will send you home.”
Xia Xingchen could already feel the envious gazes of the people around her.
That was right. This man was tall, handsome, and rich. He even blatantly boasted about his riches, it would be weird if nobody envied her!
But…
The place where she lived was not a place people could easily enter.
“It’s fine.” Xia Xingchen pushed him into his driver seat side and opened the car door to stuff him in. “Quickly leave. You will attract enemies for me since you drive such a nice car.”
Yu Zenan thought that she was very funny. “It’s fine if you don’t want me to send you home. Pass me your phone.”
“For what?” Xia Xingchen looked at him with caution.
“Give it to me.”
Yu Zenan had long arms and legs. He reached his body out through the window and easily took the phone in her hands.
He pressed a few buttons on the screen and his phone rang.
“Alright, I will bring you out to eat a few days later. I know a place that serves good food.” After Yu Zenan said his piece, he threw the phone back to Xia Xingchen.
Xia Xingchen took a look and realized that this Young master was very self-aware and directly saved his number in her phone.
Zenan.
What an easy-going guy.
‘Hong—’ His Aston Martin drove away, however it suddenly stopped and reversed back. The car window lowered down to reveal his handsome face coupled with his attractive smile that was aimed at her.
“You must answer my call, alright?”
