Not many people in Shanghai know her, and even fewer have seen her and know who she is.
This person wanted to get to know her right away, yet he knew her surname was Bai. If you didn't think there was something fishy going on, no one would believe it!
Thinking about this, she became interested.
Rather than passively being schemed against, she prefers to seize the initiative and retaliate fiercely.
"You said your name is Liu Ming? The son of the cotton mill manager? How do you know me?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Ming's face stiffened. He realized he'd messed up in his excitement and blurted it out...
However, given her dislike for the Qin family and Bai Lao Er's family, could he perhaps start from that angle?
"Uh... it's like this, I heard about what happened the other day when you stood up for your grandfather, and my elders really admire you."
Me too! I really like girls who are filial and well-mannered...
Women are all susceptible to this. Even the most feisty woman likes to be praised, and this trick has worked for him time and time again!
After he finished speaking, a shy look appeared on his face, making him look like an innocent young boy facing a girl he liked.
Tsk, Bai Yajing was amazed. This man's appearance was indeed quite good. If she didn't know medicine and what kind of person he was, she probably would have been fooled by him.
It seems the person behind this has really gone all out! Most girls would probably find it hard to resist someone from a good family, who is beautiful and knows how to charm.
But she's not an ordinary person.
"Heh, since you know me, then tell me what you want. Don't tell me you fell in love with me at first sight, I don't believe in that stuff!"
Liu Ming looked at her with interest. "What if I said it really is? Could you give me a chance? A chance to prove myself?"
Bai Yajing stared at him for a moment before nodding.
"Okay! Let's eat first, and we can talk later."
You need to be well-fed to have the energy to play with people, right?
Upon hearing this, Liu Ming's face broke into a wide smile, but a closer look revealed the contempt beneath the smile.
Bai Yajing saw this and became even more interested. It would be even more fun to play with such a cunning and treacherous person!
The meal went well thanks to Liu Ming's deliberate attempts to strike up conversation and Bai Yajing's subtle attempts to elicit information. The guests and hosts seemed to enjoy themselves immensely.
The two left the state-run restaurant, with Liu Ming pushing his bicycle alongside her. He kept talking, something Bai Yajing admired; when he wanted to please someone, he could talk a lot, and he did it well without being annoying. No wonder the people behind him chose him.
Actually, she already had a rough idea of who it was. That meal wasn't for nothing; she had managed to get the information she wanted out of him through various roundabout means.
This person knows Qin Xuanyi; they're classmates. Bai Yazhu also knows him. What a coincidence!
This is why Liu Ming dared not lie, since it would be obvious if an investigation were conducted.
"Ya Jing, you treated me to dinner, how about I treat you to a movie? Psycho is pretty good."
Bai Yajing raised her hand, glanced at her watch, and shook her head. "It's already late. Watching a movie will make it so late. My grandfather will worry. Maybe next time."
