Chapter 786 feels strange

Seeing that he didn't suspect anything, He Fen felt relieved and said, "It's still early before evening, no rush. I'll go home first to change my clothes and get ready. You go ahead with your work, I'll call you when it's time."

"Okay, then I'll go and bring Linlin back first."

Wang Ye stood up and picked up the electric scooter keys from the table.

In fact, Wang Ye did not expect He Fen to keep her word. No one knows a son better than his mother. If He Fen were really so easy to talk to, she wouldn't have been so opposed to him and Bai Yi.

Wang Ye agreed because regardless of whether He Fen would keep her word, since she had made this request, he would go along with her wishes and do it to make her happy.

After Wang Ye brought Linlin back, he received a phone call from He Fen.

"Son, go find a spot and wait for Mom. I'm almost done getting ready." He Fen reminded her, "Don't forget to dress smartly. I don't want people to laugh at me."

"It's just a meal, not a blind date. Besides, I'm here with you. You're my mom, who would laugh at me?"

He Fen ignored her and insisted, "Anyway, change into something decent, or Mom won't go."

"Okay, okay, I'll change it. I really don't know what to say to you."

He Fen hung up the phone with satisfaction, her face full of confidence.

Wang Ye rode his electric bike to the restaurant He Fen had told him about. He parked the bike, took off his helmet, and looked up.

The restaurant is quite beautiful; it's not only upscale but also elegant.

He Fen was right; the store was indeed running a promotion. However, after taking a closer look, Wang Ye discovered that the promotion was actually for couples.

Most of the people eating in the restaurant were couples.

Wang Ye didn't understand why He Fen wanted to eat here; it felt strange.

However, He Fen had already chosen a place, so Wang Ye didn't ask any more questions and went in to find a seat.

Then he took out his phone and called He Fen.

"Mom, I've arrived. Have you left yet?"

He Fen said on the phone, "Almost there, Mom will be here in ten minutes, don't worry."

"Okay, then hurry up."

As soon as Wang Ye hung up the phone, a waiter came over with a menu.

"Hello sir, are there two of you? What would you like to eat? I'd like to recommend our newly launched couple's set meal, it's a great deal, would you like to take a look?"

Wang Ye waved his hand, "No need, my mom and I will just grab something to eat. She hasn't arrived yet, I'll call you when she gets here."

The waiter gave Wang Ye a meaningful look.

Wang Ye asked疑惑地问道, "Is there a problem?"

The waiter gave Wang Ye a perfectly timed smile and said, "No problem, just call me when everyone's here."

After the waiter left, Wang Ye thought about it more and more and felt that the way she looked at him was very strange.

But something was strange, though Wang Ye couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Wang Ye thought it was probably just his imagination, so he didn't take it to heart. He opened his phone and started watching videos while waiting for He Fen.

However, nearly twenty minutes passed, and He Fen still hadn't arrived.

Wang Ye was losing patience. Just as he was wondering if He Fen wasn't coming, a familiar voice rang out above him.

"Hello, I am..."

Wang Ye looked up and, sure enough, saw Zhou Hui.

Why is she here?

Zhou Hui was shocked to find that the person sitting here on her blind date was Wang Ye. She was so shocked that she couldn't even finish her self-introduction.

The two of them just stared at each other for a full minute.

Finally, Wang Ye came to his senses first and asked Zhou Hui, "What are you doing here?"

"The aunt said she introduced me to a friend and asked me to come here to meet him."

"My mom?" Wang Ye asked suspiciously, "She asked you to come see me?"

Zhou Hui shook her head blankly, "I don't know if it was you. She said that person was wearing a white hoodie."

She stared at the clothes Wang Ye was wearing. "I think she was talking about you..."

Wang Ye looked down and realized that he was indeed wearing a white sweatshirt. But why would He Fen send Zhou Hui to see him for no reason?

Wang Ye thought Zhou Hui had made a mistake. "You must have mistaken me for someone else. Why don't you look again? There are so many people in this restaurant."

Zhou Hui nodded, "I also think I must have made a mistake. The person Auntie introduced was for me to go on a blind date with, why would she let you go on a blind date with me..."

Wang Ye stared at her intently. "What did you say?"

Zhou Hui was a little startled by his gaze. He said softly, "Auntie came to see me today, saying she wanted to introduce me to a boyfriend and asked me to come and see if he was suitable. Don't overthink it. I think Auntie must have made a mistake, or maybe I've mistaken her for someone else. I'll call Auntie and ask her."

"No need." Wang Ye, as if remembering something, stood up abruptly and said to Zhou Hui with a dark expression, "I'll go ask her myself!"

"Wang Ye!"

Zhou Hui couldn't stop him. Watching Wang Ye walk away without looking back, she unconsciously clenched her bag tighter.

Wang Ye rode his electric bike home in a huff.

Before entering the room, he received a call from Bai Yi.

She had finished what she was doing and went to the store to pick up Linlin to go home, only to find out that Wang Ye had gone out when she got there.

"Where are you? Linlin said you left after you picked him up."

Wang Ye was seething with anger, but he spoke to Bai Yi in a relatively normal manner, saying, "I have some things to take care of, I'll be back soon, you take Linlin back first."

Bai Yi seemed to sense that something was wrong with him. "Are you alright? Did something happen?"

"No, I'm busy right now, I'll hang up now."

Wang Ye hung up the phone and stormed into his house in a rage.

Wang Yue and He Fen were both at home, sitting on the sofa watching TV.

He Fen was somewhat surprised to see Wang Ye return. She quickly stood up, her tone tinged with guilt as she spoke.

"Xiao Ye, why did you suddenly come back?"

Wang Ye didn't bother arguing with her and asked directly, "You're arranging a blind date for me with Zhou Hui?"

He Fen's guilty gaze darted around, but she stubbornly denied it, saying, "What blind date? What nonsense are you talking about, child?"

Hearing Wang Ye's words, Wang Yue was also puzzled. "Xiao Ye, what are you talking about? What blind date? And who is this Zhou Hui?"

He Fen invited Zhou Hui to her house last time, deliberately sending Wang Yue away, so Wang Yue never knew who Zhou Hui was, nor did he know that He Fen and Zhou Hui were close.

Wang Ye took a deep breath. "Mom, I'm asking you one more time. You lied to me about going to the restaurant to have dinner with you, but you actually wanted me to meet Zhou Hui. You want us to be together, don't you?"

He Fen stammered and couldn't say anything.

Seeing her like this, Wang Ye already understood pretty much everything.

He couldn't help but close his eyes; he simply couldn't understand how He Fen had become like this.

Does she even know what she's doing?

Wang Yue became increasingly confused as he listened. He glanced at He Fen, then looked at Wang Ye.
