The date is on Friday evening at a Western restaurant.
The woman had lived abroad for several years, and after returning to China, she found it difficult to get used to the taste of her hometown.
The reason for meeting at a Western restaurant was twofold: firstly, to reminisce about the flavors of food I had abroad, and secondly, to observe the dining etiquette of the Emirates.
Yi Mu arrived on time, carrying a bouquet of roses with great poise.
He was tall with long legs, had a naturally smiling face, and was handsome. When he first saw his blind date, he greeted her politely and did not do anything out of line.
This behavior, which was neither frivolous nor overly dull, left a very good impression on Miss Li.
"Thank you for the flowers, Mr. Yi. Please have a seat."
Miss Li has a delicate and pretty appearance. Unlike the current trend of wealthy young ladies who perm their hair into braids, she retains her natural beauty.
She spoke elegantly and didn't chat with Yi Mu about those boring high-society topics. Instead, she discussed the current domestic situation with him.
If Yi Mu were truly a spoiled brat, he might not have been able to keep up with her conversation, but he wasn't.
He seems to be like a butterfly every day, wherever there are fragrant beauties and dazzling venues, he is there.
In fact, Yi Mu had been paying close attention to the domestic situation behind the scenes.
It started five years ago when the Japanese army opened a breach in the three northeastern provinces and occupied the land there.
China was engulfed in war, and its people were suffering terribly.
Ms. Li discovered that Yi Mu, like herself, was very concerned about the current situation.
She became somewhat interested in Yi Mu and brought up a new topic.
"Given how arrogant the Japanese are these days, do you think it's possible for the Kuomintang and the Communist Party to set aside their differences and unite against Japan in the future?"
Yi Mu forked a piece of beef with his fork and put it in his mouth, raising an eyebrow and saying, "Why not? The enemy of my enemy is my friend, and besides, we're all Chinese."
Before the date, Ms. Li had someone investigate Yi Mu.
The outside world describes Yi Mu as having a beautiful exterior and a dashing demeanor.
The phrase "golden exterior, jade interior" is usually followed by the four characters "rotten cotton inside."
This describes someone who appears beautiful on the surface but is actually as coarse and vulgar as tattered cotton inside.
But Yi Mu was only outwardly impressive; people generally held him in high regard.
As for the phrase "charming and dashing," it means that the fifth young master of the Yi family had many female confidantes.
However, Yi Mu rarely has any scandals involving starting relationships and then abandoning women. It seems that he has good relationships with women, but not the kind of sordid ones.
Before Ms. Li arrived, she guessed that this man must be very charming.
After spending the entire date together, she realized she was wrong; this person wasn't just charming, he was far too charming.
She smoked, expecting Yi Mu to frown.
He said it was alright, and then took out his lighter and lit her cigarette.
As Ms. Li left the restaurant, she felt that if she spent more time with Yi Mu, she would definitely fall in love with him.
It's raining outside, a light, continuous drizzle.
Ms. Li didn't have an umbrella, so Yi Mu opened his own umbrella, handed it to her, and hailed a taxi for her.
Ms. Li took his umbrella and felt very embarrassed.
"Then what will you do?"
Imur put the top hat on his head and smiled slightly at her.
"I have a hat. It's late, hurry home and call me when you get home to let me know you're safe."
Ms. Li was pursued by many men while studying abroad.
But no one had ever stirred her heart like Yi Mu.
She opened the taxi door, got in, rolled down the window, and waved to Yi Mu.
The legendary playboy smiled and waved to her, his smile warm.
Ms. Li only turned around and touched the exquisitely crafted umbrella when he could no longer be seen in the rearview mirror.
Yi Mu waited in front of the restaurant for a while, and then the Yi family's car stopped in front of him.
Yi Mu walked to the car and opened the door.
At the same time, a row of cars stopped behind.
A tall man in military uniform got out of one of the cars.
Seven or eight people surrounded him, smiling obsequiously as they ushered him into the restaurant.
Yi Mu got into the car and started the engine.
A group of people walked into the restaurant. The city's senior combat commander smiled and said to the man next to him, "Commander Zeng, this restaurant has the most authentic Western food. You must try it."
