After staying in place for a long time, Babos finally started to move forward. Jiang Rong listened to the soothing and smooth music in his ears, and thought that Shang Shaoheng was quite nostalgic. This song was from many years ago.
"Where are you going?" Shang Shaoheng asked calmly.
Jiang Rong: "Blind date."
"......?" Shang Shaoheng turned his head and looked at her: "What?"
"I just said that my dad doesn't like me very much. He must be unhappy that I've been living off him all this time, so he wants to marry me off quickly. So he arranged a blind date for me this afternoon and said he'd break my legs if I didn't go." Jiang Rong sighed helplessly, looking melancholy. "So, in order to save my legs, I have to go on the blind date."
She leaned over to set up the navigation and said sweetly, "I've already set my destination. Can you please take me there, brother-in-law? I'll definitely praise you in front of Panyu when I get back!"
Shang Shaoheng: "The car is going 60 now. If I throw you out of here, you'll be dead within ten seconds."
Jiang Rong immediately made a zipper-like motion to his mouth, indicating that he would shut up.
[022.] Jiang Rong called out to his useless little system in his mind, "What do you think the hero is trying to do? Is he arresting me just to avenge the last time I licked him?"
022: [This would be strange if it happened to anyone else, but not to the hero. He is a vindictive person. Apart from the heroine, he will never let anyone else off if they dare to offend him. And...]
【And what? 】
And I was already shocked that he just bit you instead of cutting your throat to bleed, okay!
However, it was afraid that saying this would make the host dislike the male protagonist even more, so it coughed and quickly changed the subject: [How are you going to reject your blind date?]
Jiang Rong: [Why should I refuse? If I refuse, that old man Jiang Peihong will definitely curse me to death. I want them to give up when they see the difficulty.]
022 quickly alerted: [You are not going to cause trouble again! ]
Jiang Rong: [What are you talking about? When have I ever taken the initiative to cause trouble? Don't worry, my methods this time are relatively gentle, and I'll make them give up on their own.]
After hearing her say this, 022 was completely worried. Although it had not spent a long time with Jiang Rong, it had already roughly understood the temperament of its new host. She was definitely the type of person who would hand over the knife when others killed people and applaud when others set fires, and she would watch the fun and not mind making trouble.
022 kept muttering, which gave Jiang Rong a headache and made her look unhappy. She happened to be waiting for the traffic light, and Shang Shaoheng glanced at her inadvertently and paused.
When Chi Er analyzed Jiang Rong's motives with him before, he also said that Chi Er was suitable to be a screenwriter of melodramatic eight o'clock dramas, but now it seems that life is far more exciting than drama, and Chi Er's scripts appear so beautiful and ethereal in Jiang Rong's stories.
Suddenly, his phone dinged. Shang Shaoheng glanced down and saw a message from Chi Er: "I've checked. Qian Weixin and the Jiang family do have a good relationship. It's very likely that Qian Weixin held Miss Jiang in his arms when she was a child."
Shang Shaoheng: “.”
He looked at Jiang Rong again.
Jiang Rong seemed to be getting more and more irritable as he got closer to the destination. Was he resisting the blind date?
Yes, she has been infatuated with Qian Weixin for many years. Her lover got married and had children early and is now about to have grandchildren. She also has to marry under the pressure of her family. This must be a very painful thing for her.
Shang Shaoheng switched off the song "Dear, That's Not Love" which had been playing in a loop and replaced it with "Every Word and Every Sentence".
"He never said a word about you."
"Did he love you briefly?"
…
"A friend couldn't help but bring it up, saying he wasn't moved. You smiled and said it didn't matter, you were fine."
"He never mentioned that he liked you, but every word you said was "I do."
This was the song Chi Er had just recommended. Amidst the gentle music, Shang Shaoheng's voice was cold: "Have you heard of it?"
Jiang Rong couldn't stand 022's nagging any more, so she decided to block it out with her mind. When she heard Shang Shaoheng's question, she was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: "I haven't heard of it."
"Hmm." Shang Shaoheng said, "Now that I've heard it, what do you think?"
The song just happened to play: "His response when he was lonely made you excited."
"He avoided the topic this time, and you foolishly approached enthusiastically."
"I crossed so many cities for him, and got myself wet just because of him."
Jiang Rong didn't know if this was another fatal question, so he hesitated and said, "It's...it sounds nice?"
Shang Shaoheng tapped his fingers on the steering wheel: "No more?"
Jiang Rong racked his brains: "Hmm... remember to bring an umbrella when you go out to visit someone?"
I don’t know if it was Jiang Rong’s illusion, but Shang Shaoheng’s face became even colder. Before the song was finished, he had already switched to the next one——
Too Soft Heart
"You are always too soft-hearted, too soft-hearted, crying alone until dawn."
"You love that person without regrets, but I know you're not that strong."
"You are always too soft-hearted, too soft-hearted, and you take all the problems on yourself."
"Loving each other is always easy, but living together is so hard."
"If it's not yours, don't force it."
Jiang Rong: “?”
Shang Shaoheng's taste is quite emo. Why does he always listen to these kind of life-and-death love songs?
After finally arriving at their destination, Jiang Rong took a look at the grandly decorated store and said to Shang Shaoheng, "Brother-in-law, thank you. I'll go in first, then."
Shang Shaoheng didn't say anything. Jiang Rong was used to his indifferent personality. She opened the car door and was about to walk in when she heard another bang and the driver's door opened.
Shang Shaoheng was tall and slender, leaning against the car with his eyes lowered and wearing a pair of pure black sunglasses. He looked like he could be shooting a car show commercial right away.
Jiang Rong asked doubtfully: "Brother-in-law?"
"Aren't you going on a blind date?"
He walked into the coffee shop first: "Let's go."
Jiang Rong: “?”
As Jiang Rong followed the waiter to the seat he had reserved long ago, he still couldn't figure out why things had developed to this point.
——Why on earth would Shang Shaoheng accompany her to a blind date? ! !
[022.] Jiang Rong urgently knocked on his system: [I allow you to speak, please tell me what's going on!]
022 hesitated and said, "Could it be that he still doesn't believe what you said about liking Mr. Qian, so he wants to observe your performance on the blind date to see if you are truly devoted to Mr. Qian?"
Jiang Rong: [...Shang Shaoheng, how vicious! Aren't you disgusted enough yet?]
022: [The male protagonist is very suspicious. ]
Jiang Rong took a deep breath and thought to himself, okay, I will let you know later what shocking things a love-brained person can do for his sweetheart!
From today on, if Shang Shaoheng has any doubt about her love for that bald old man, it will be Jiang Xiaorong's fault!
