Mingdai refused.
"Sorry, I'm a little tired today, I'd like to head home now."
Si Xi knew what Ming Dai was thinking.
"Then I'll take you."
Mingdai smiled and shook her head, "No need, I drove here myself."
Si Xi understood. "Okay, then we'll meet again sometime."
"Um."
Mingdai turned and left.
A few minutes after the car drove off, Fang Li called.
Why did you leave?
Mingdai spoke coldly and sternly.
I'm tired.
Fang Li said with great regret, "Why don't you spend more time with Si Xi? Let me tell you, he's outstanding in our circle."
Mingdai said impatiently, "I don't need you to worry about these things for me."
"I told you I would introduce you to a high-quality partner."
Fang Li didn't think at all that it was immoral and selfish of her to push her blind date to Ming Dai.
Moreover, Fang Li just wanted to get rid of Si Xi as soon as possible and report back to her father.
"Really, it's not necessary."
Mingdai wanted to hang up the phone.
Fang Li realized what was happening.
Are you angry?
Mingdai frowned. "It's your own blind date, can't you please handle it yourself?"
"But you know perfectly well that I like Brother Yao Nian, so I don't need any blind date."
"Then let's just be straightforward and explain it to them."
“I told him, but my dad insisted on introducing me to someone.”
Fang Li felt wronged.
“You have no idea how stubborn my dad is. He set his sights on Si Xi and was convinced that Si Xi would be his good son-in-law.”
Mingdai remained silent.
Fang Li acted coquettishly.
"Oh, don't be angry anymore. Si Xi is really a good person. His family doesn't have that kind of class mentality, and his parents are very open-minded. They won't care if you're divorced or not..."
Mingdai interrupted Fang Li's endless chatter.
"No need, thank you."
He hung up the phone after saying that.
Mingdai didn't really care about her status as a second-time bride.
But hearing it from Fang Li's mouth made her feel uncomfortable.
My mood plummeted to its lowest point.
Back at the villa, the atmosphere at home remained heavy.
Mingdai cautiously asked the housekeeper.
"How is my second uncle? Any news?"
The butler looked worried, his brow furrowed as he shook his head. "Not yet."
Mingdai could only pray that Second Master He could pull through this ordeal.
After going upstairs, she had nothing to do, so she just went to sleep.
The next morning, after breakfast before going to work.
Mingdai stared at her phone, hesitating whether or not to call He Yaonian.
But then she wondered if He Yaonian might not even want to answer her calls.
What if I call and bother them...
never mind.
Mingdai went to the company.
I spent the morning negotiating with the manufacturer, and then stayed in the R&D department until the end of the workday.
The assistant general went out today and couldn't come back. His girlfriend was in a car accident; it wasn't serious, but she was traumatized.
Since the assistant couldn't get to the scene to comfort her, Mingdai rushed over.
When Mingdai finally emerged from the hospital, starving, she looked up and realized it was already dark outside.
There were many restaurants in the nearby square. Mingdai randomly picked one and went in to order when she heard someone calling her from the side.
"Miss Ming."
Mingdai turned her head and saw that it was Si Xi.
Si Xi was holding a bouquet of flowers, wearing a floral shirt, and dressed like a playboy.
He walked over with a smile, looking nonchalant but not greasy.
That's what it's like to be handsome; everything you do is pleasing to the eye.
"Why are you eating so late?"
Si Xi was naturally familiar with people.
Mingdai looked away, checked the menu with the waiter, and then replied, "I have something to do."
She thought Si Xi would just chat with her since they bumped into each other, but instead, he asked, "May I sit here?"
The seat opposite Mingdai was empty; it was clear that someone was eating alone.
Mingdai wanted to refuse, but Sixi said, "I haven't eaten either, shall we eat together?"
Mingdai could only swallow her refusal.
"good."
Si Xi received permission and then sat down gracefully.
He handed the bouquet of flowers to Mingdai.
"This is for you."
He also admitted honestly, "This was something I planned to give to the person I was on a blind date with, but they didn't show up."
He asked Mingdai, "Do you mind?"
Mingdai didn't care whether she minded or not, because she didn't want to accept the flowers at all.
"Since she's a blind date, let's save it for her."
Si Xi smiled and said, "I'm sorry."
Mingdai smiled but didn't say anything.
Si Xi called the waiter and ordered two more dishes.
While waiting for their food to be served, the two inevitably chatted for a bit.
Mingdai was somewhat irritated.
She just wants to eat alone and be alone right now.
Why is Miss Ming all alone?
Si Xi tried to find a topic to talk about.
Mingdai wasn't keen on engaging with her, so she was very perfunctory.
"Aren't you alone too?"
Si Xi paused for a moment, then chuckled softly.
He has a beautiful smile, full of life, and his eyes even slant upwards.
"Miss Ming doesn't seem to really want to see me."
Mingdai nodded honestly, "Yes, I want to be alone."
Si Xi looked apologetic. "I'm really sorry, but I've already ordered. How about we just sit here without talking?"
Mingdai was amused by him.
It's quite frustrating.
Why didn't your blind date come?
Si Xi rested her chin on her hand, "Maybe they think I'm not very reliable."
Mingdai didn't understand Sixi and couldn't offer any correct advice.
"oh."
She simply said "oh".
