“Girl, you should dress up properly. Don’t make yourself look like a nanny.” Ye Xiaomeng suggested as she watched.
Shu Pan smiled and rolled her eyes at her.
“Got it, Beauty Ye. Oh right, have you had any romantic encounters recently? Remember to introduce him to me.” Shu Pan was most concerned about this.
“If I have a boyfriend, I will tell you.” Ye Xiaomeng patted her shoulder.
Immediately, she touched her stomach again, “Girl, let’s grab something to eat.
After all this shopping, I’m both thirsty and hungry.”
“Alright, there’s a café next to the mall, let’s go there; it’s quieter,” Shu Pan also felt a bit tired.
As they passed by the café’s glass window, Ye Xiaomeng casually glanced inside.
In an instant, she froze, unconsciously stopping in her tracks. At the same time, she also grabbed Shu Pan beside her.
“What’s wrong?” Shu Pan, a bit confused, looked at her.
Ye Xiaomeng’s face seemed a bit unnatural, and she quickly said, “I don’t feel like having Western food anymore. How about some spicy fish? I know a place nearby with really good taste.”
‘Why the sudden craving for spicy food?” Shu Pan was quite puzzled by the sudden change of plans.
“Come on, don’t you know women are fickle? Well, I’m one of them.” Ye Xiaomeng pulled Shu Pan and quickly left.
In the cafe, He Ming sighed as he looked at the woman across from him.
This woman was the daughter of his mother’s friend, who had just returned from studying abroad. Originally, he didn’t agree to meet her, but his mother resorted to all kinds of tactics, including crying, throwing tantrums, and even threatening to harm herself.
Constant phone bombardment followed, where he mentioned having someone he liked, but they didn’t believe him. They thought he was just trying to brush them off.
So, under his mother’s pressure, he was forced into this blind date. Although it wasn’t true, he couldn’t be an unfilial son.
He came with the intention to make it clear that he had no intention of pursuing a relationship.
“Miss Hu, I believe you can tell that I’m not interested in this blind date. I already have someone I like,” He Ming stated straightforwardly after sitting down.
“Brother He, just call me Shanshan. Our families are acquainted,” the woman across from him smiled gently. Her voice was soft and soothing.
“Shanshan, I assume you also don’t want to be here for a blind date. After all, it’s the modern era, and everyone prefers free love, right?” He Ming wanted to dispel any thoughts she might have about this arranged meeting.
“I was a bit resistant before coming, but now that I see it’s you, He Brother, I
don’t think blind dates are that bad. After all, we come from reputable families, and we know each other’s backgrounds,” Hu Shanshan’s words surprised He Ming; they weren’t quite in line with his expectations.
“I have many flaws, really. Otherwise, I wouldn’t still be single now,” He Ming continued to talk about his shortcomings, hoping to leave a negative impression and make it easier to reject her.
But Hu Shanshan was thinking more along the lines of a prodigal son turning over a new leaf. She found He Ming to be honest and believed he wouldn’t deceive her emotionally.
“Brother He, you’re being too modest. Although I’ve known you for a short time, I think you’re a good person, honest,” Hu Shanshan said earnestly.
He Ming was stunned by her high praise. If it weren’t for her being his mother’s friend’s daughter, he might have left immediately.
“Shanshan, you don’t really know me yet. I’m older than you, so how about you take me as your real brother? If you ever have any difficulties, you can come to me,” He Ming thought this idea was feasible and wouldn’t offend anyone.
“Brother He, the girl you like must be very beautiful and outstanding,” Hu Shanshan didn’t directly respond to He Ming but instead spoke these words in a slightly mysterious tone..
