The sky gradually darkened.
It was drizzling outside. Pedestrians on the road were walking quickly with umbrellas in their hands. The sounds of cars coming and going seemed to be amplified in the rain.
Xinghai Garden Hotel.
Ying Kexin sat in the hotel lobby, watching the rain hitting the window outside.
"Do you like rainy days?"
The man opposite suddenly asked.
Ying Kexin's gaze slowly fell from the window on the man opposite.
Without waiting for her to answer, the man continued.
"I like rainy days. I can give you a ride home. I heard mothers love their daughters very much."
Ying Kexin still didn't reply.
The man smiled and said, "Do you want to get married soon? 27 is just right, Ying Kexin, I like you."
Ying Kexin is the daughter of the new leader of Nanhu. She can’t be considered new, after all, she has been in office for five years, and she has also been in Nanhu for five years.
After Mr. Song died in a car accident, a new leader came to Nanhu, and Ying Kexin was his daughter.
Perhaps because of this background, she was considered a picky and troublesome woman, and there were even rumors that she was an illegitimate child.
Although the man opposite had come out out of necessity, he was unknowingly bewitched by Ying Kexin's appearance.
"I heard you studied art? Painting, sculpture, or something else?"
"I'm an artist and now I'm the curator at an art center."
Ying Kexin said in a calm voice.
From the time she appeared until now, there has been no change in her expression, and she has spoken very few words.
"I know a lot about that place, but unfortunately I'm a complete novice in art. I'd love to ask you some advice sometime. By the way, where is the art museum you said you work in? Can I meet you next Wednesday?"
Ying Kexin looked at the man in front of her and asked, "Does this mean we're on a date?"
"I'm sorry if I offended you. I'm not usually like this. I really like you, so is that not okay?"
"It probably doesn't work."
She replied directly.
"Why?"
The man's expression changed noticeably.
"I just don't have that kind of feeling for you. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to beat around the bush. It seems like we're not meant to be."
"Then why did you come out? You knew it would end up being a waste of time."
"Because this is a family agreement."
Ying Kexin nodded, picked up the bag next to her, and turned to leave.
The man stood up excitedly and shouted angrily, "It feels even worse than I thought."
Ying Kexin paused and heard a man's sarcastic voice behind her.
"Why are you putting on this arrogant attitude to get out of your situation as a doormat? I don't know what you're so arrogant about. Why are you so ashamed now that I've exposed your true intentions?"
Listening to his words, Ying Kexin slowly turned around, still with that expressionless face and speaking in a calm tone.
"Now I know what you mean. Thankfully."
"What?"
"So let's just cut this off and not meet again. I don't mind any excuse you give for ending this blind date."
After saying this, Ying Kexin walked out of the hotel, leaving the man standing there in a daze.
She walked out of the Xinghai Garden Hotel. Because it was raining outside and there was a cold wind, her skirt fluttered in the wind. She shivered with cold and hugged her arms, with the man's words in her mind.
[Get rid of the situation of being a punching bag].
[Why are you being so arrogant?].
This blind date has failed again. How should I tell my mother about it when I get home?
Suddenly, a car stopped at the gate of the hotel and a man got out of the car. He was wearing a black suit. His hair flew in the wind and he grabbed his hair back randomly.
"What a cool day!"
After saying this, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and put it to his lips.
Ying Kexin couldn't help but stop and look at the man walking past her.
"You should know that smoking is not allowed indoors."
The man next to him said.
"Know."
As he answered this, he walked past Ying Kexin, holding a cigarette in his mouth, and glanced at Ying Kexin.
The two people's eyes met, but they just passed each other like strangers.
"The owner has stipulated that smoking is not allowed in the hotel."
"You're so annoying!"
"Master Shi Yan!"
Shi Yan sighed helplessly, put away the unlit cigarette in his mouth, and asked through gritted teeth, "Is this okay?"
"Master, I'm just following the rules."
"This girl Shi Ran is even worse than grandpa."
As he spoke, he walked into the hotel.
I got into the elevator and pressed the top floor button.
Walk out of the elevator and talk as you go.
"The master of the house is waiting inside. He will return to the Shi family mansion for dinner. The old man has prepared the meal in the Shi family compound. You can stay in this hotel. A room has been booked for you."
"Okay, I know everything."
Shi Yan replied in a toneless and mechanical voice.
"The Patriarch also issued a special order..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Shi Yan.
"Okay, enough is enough. I'm not a child."
The next second after he finished saying this, he pushed open the door of the room.
"I'm here." Shi Ran was sitting in the middle, holding a document in his hand. The moment he pushed open the door, he looked up. "Thank you for your hard work on the way here."
Shi Yan didn't say anything, but walked to the table skillfully, picked up a bottle of wine casually and poured a glass.
