Chapter 193 Dad No. 5 Pei Yan
As he spoke, Zhang Jincai pulled Xiao Taozhi a little further away from the car.
But his eyes were shining, and his eyeballs were still glued to the car:
"My dear, you can't just touch that car! If you scratch off a piece of paint, I can't even sell you to pay for it."
Xiao Taozhi saw from Zhang Jincai's passionate gaze how much he liked the car, "Uncle, if you like that car so much, why don't you buy one for yourself?"
"Let alone a car, my uncle might only be able to afford one tire in his entire life."
And the most eye-catching thing is not the car itself, but the 24k pure gold license plate with 8888 engraved on it, which is shining with golden light!
In this world, even cars are covered with gold, but he doesn't even have a drop of gold!
Sure enough, he didn't understand the world of rich people.
After a few reluctant glances, Zhang Jincai took Xiao Taozhi into the restaurant.
It is very large inside, with pure European style decoration. On the gorgeous stage in the center, a pianist is playing piano music.
In Zhang Jincai's words, the smell of money is everywhere here.
Little Taozhi found a place anywhere, sat down on the leather sofa cushion with her little butt sticking out, and her two short legs dangling.
"My two guests, here is the menu, please take a look."
Taking the electronic menu, Zhang Jincai glanced at it casually. Every dish looked very tempting.
But when he looked at the price again, his eyes almost popped out of his head in shock!
This is money grabbing?!
"Sir, you've ordered a deluxe steak set for two, an Australian lobster, a serving of cherry foie gras, and a glass of iced lemon juice. Is there anything else you need?"
Zhang Jincai:!!!
“When did I order?!”
Little Taozhi stretched out her little paw from behind the menu: "Uncle Zhang, it's Zhizhi's order! Zhizhi will eat this much, is there anything else, uncle?"
Zhang Jincai: ...
Forget it, he won’t bother with that little brat.
When he gets back, he will definitely ask Lu Ting for reimbursement!
Zhang Jincai handed the menu to the waiter: "I'd like a glass of...free boiled water, thank you."
"Okay, please wait."
As he said that, he poured a glass of water for Zhang Jincai.
It’s still free and fragrant! Even boiled water is sweet!
After the two finished their meal, Zhang Jincai went to pay the bill.
Only Xiao Taozhi was left sitting alone in her seat. She looked boredly at the bustling world outside the transparent glass window.
Where is her fifth father?
suddenly.
The woman at the table behind him suddenly raised her voice, "We haven't even tried it yet, how do you know we're not suitable?"
She saw the man opposite her with his legs crossed, leaning lazily on the sofa, with a nonchalant smile in his peach blossom eyes with slightly raised corners.
He said nonchalantly, "Ms. Zheng, I think the purpose of your blind date is nothing more than to find a suitable home for you and have a stable marriage and family."
"To be honest, I came here just to deal with my mom. Marriage is such a heavy burden, it's so tiring. I want to have fun for a few more years."
"I have another appointment, so I'm sorry I can't keep you company."
"etc!"
The woman bit her red lips unwillingly, her nails digging into her flesh. She said with a desperate look, "I can wait for you, no matter how long it takes! Pei Yan, actually... I like you! I've liked you for many years!"
The man paused, a faint chuckle escaping his thin, crimson lips. "Wait for me? Wait for ten or eight years, and then turn such a pretty face of yours into a yellow-faced old woman?"
He lifted the woman's pointed chin directly with his slender and clean hands. He caught a hint of mischief and shyness on her face: "For me, it's not worth it."
"But...but I really like..."
"Shh-"
His joints were cold, and he lightly touched her lips, while his quiet and warm breath sprayed on the woman's ears.
He spoke slowly, "Don't say you like me. I, Pei Yan, never date a woman who falls in love with me."
The woman's expression turned from red to pale in an instant.
Pei Yan saw her reaction and withdrew his hand with satisfaction, twisting off the foundation stuck on his fingertips. "Miss Zheng, I wish you happiness."
But the woman was only stunned for a moment, then rushed forward regardless and hugged the man's slender waist:
"Ayan, how can I be happy without you? Do you think I can do it? Just to see you, I secretly applied to the same university as you without telling my parents. I also secretly raised investment for you time and time again, and persuaded my father to agree to cooperate with you... I have done so much for you, can't you just give me a chance?"
Pei Yan listened to her with his body stiff, and then without a moment's hesitation, he forcefully pried open the hands tied around his waist.
He turned around, his eyes less serious: "Miss Zheng, I think you did those things not for me, but for yourself."
The woman was shocked. "What are you talking about? How could I possibly be doing this for myself? I simply like you as a person. How can you view my feelings for you like this?"
"I don't deny your love for me, but don't you think that what you did was just self-indulgent? Don't make your selfish desires sound so righteous."
He paused and continued, "Ms. Zheng, we're all adults now. Don't you think it's a bit naive to talk about love without considering material things?"
"In other words, if I, Pei Yan, was just a ragpicker on the street, would you still be willing to date me? I'm afraid you wouldn't even give me a glance."
"You chose me simply because everything about me: my financial resources and status, met your expectations, and my appearance just happened to make your heart flutter, so you were willing to invest your love."
"But I'm sorry, your affection for me will probably become a sunk cost. Miss Zheng, I'm truly unworthy of your pure and unparalleled feelings for me."
The man was calm and composed, but the woman's face turned pale and she even bit her lips.
Her body was shaking, and her voice was sharp and threatening: "Pei Yan, if you dare to leave today, I will withdraw all my previous investments! You'd better think it over carefully!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a sticky little ball ran to Pei Yan and stretched out its two short hands to block the man.
The deer's piercing eyes stared warily at the woman in front of him, and he said in a voice that showed no sign of weakness: "Don't bully my father!"
The woman was stunned. Her pupils shrank in shock, and her face, covered in thick foundation, became distorted. "Say it again! Who did you say is your father?!"
Little Taozhi pointed at the man behind her and said proudly in a milky voice, "My father is him, Pei Yan."
She clenched her fist towards the woman fiercely and said, "Bad guy, you'd better run away! Otherwise, I'll beat you up every time I see you, and I won't show any mercy!"
This harsh remark was learned from Xiao Taozhi and Xiao Yucheng.
