"Mr. Li, forgive my harsh words, but Grandpa Li knows you have a girlfriend and still asked you to go on a blind date with me. He must not like your girlfriend, right? Why don't you be with me? Grandpa will be happy all the time!"
Lu Xinyi is extremely meticulous, never letting go of any possibility or opportunity.
"Hahaha~ Miss Lu, no offense, but I suggest you get your brain working! What kind of bizarre thought process do you have?"
An Xinyue was genuinely amused by her, and she responded to her with the most polite tone while subtly mocking her.
"you……"
Lu Xinyi was so angry at An Xinyue that she couldn't speak, and glared fiercely at An Xinyue.
"It's not that Grandpa doesn't like Yueyue, it's just that I haven't had a chance to bring her home yet. I hope Miss Lu will have some self-respect."
Even if he didn't want to talk to Lu Xinyi, he wouldn't allow her to make wild guesses and say anything bad about An Xinyue.
"Yueyue, shall we go?"
Li Shaochuan naturally took An Xinyue's hand and left the spot.
An Xinyue jogged back to her original spot to grab her bag, then continued walking arm-in-arm with Li Shaochuan toward the front desk.
Li Shaochuan settled the bills for both tables.
On the bus
"Brother Shaochuan, don't misunderstand, I only did that because I saw you were being pestered by her..."
Wouldn't he think she was being too forward? What if he didn't like her? Wouldn't she be in a very awkward situation?
Perhaps Li Shaochuan was just putting on an act!
An Xinyue hurriedly explained... Although her expression betrayed her, she felt guilty and didn't know that she had been so bold in her moment of panic!
"Yueyue, I like you. I don't even know when I started liking you, probably many years ago..."
He hadn't quite understood his feelings for An Xinyue before, and it wasn't until later that he realized he had always liked her.
Li Shaochuan's gaze was sincere, making An Xinyue feel uneasy...
She was overjoyed to be confessed to by the person she loved, but she didn't know how to get along with Li Shaochuan for a while.
"Actually... Brother Shaochuan, I've liked you for eight years, and I've always known how I feel. It's just that I was worried you didn't like me, so I secretly kept my feelings hidden. I was afraid that if I told you, we wouldn't be able to be friends anymore..."
An Xinyue also confessed her feelings for Li Shaochuan, but as she spoke, she lowered her head. She didn't dare to look Li Shaochuan in the eye, and she hid her face, which was already flushed with embarrassment.
"Yueyue, will you be my girlfriend? Give me a chance to protect you, and I promise to be devoted to you for the rest of my life! I'll only be good to you!"
Li Shaochuan's eyes were sincere and expectant...
An Xinyue felt her heart flutter; it was about to jump out of her chest...
"Okay, sure! I promise!"
Even if Li Shaochuan asked her a thousand or ten thousand times, she would still agree to him without hesitation, just like she does now.
He had just been provoked by this girl at the restaurant. He couldn't just pounce on her as soon as they met... but he had to get something from her, in a symbolic way.
Li Shaochuan lowered the passenger seat, his entire body looming over An Xinyue...
As soon as Lu Xinyi came out, she saw the two of them kissing passionately in the car, and she was extremely jealous. Her eyes were red, her whole body was trembling, and her face was contorted with anger.
After a long while, Li Shaochuan finally got up, satisfied, and looked down at An Xinyue, whose face was full of shyness.
An Xinyue shyly covered her face. Happiness came too suddenly, and she hadn't had time to adjust to this relationship.
"Yueyue, did you not eat anything just now? What would you like to eat? Let's go eat together."
Having tasted the sweetness, Li Shaochuan was in a great mood. However, this taste made his fire burn even brighter, and his voice became even hoarseer, almost to the lowest possible volume.
"I really wanted to try the kakamisu cake they had at the restaurant just now..."
An Xinyue slowly moved her hand away; she admitted that Li Shaochuan's voice was incredibly alluring right now...
But then I thought about how I missed out on ordering cake because I was waiting at the store, and that was a bit of a shame...
"Okay, she should be gone now. Shall we go upstairs to eat?"
The second floor of the Moli restaurant is a VIP area, with individual tables set up separately, unlike the open layout downstairs.
Li Shaochuan gently touched her face; the more he looked at her shy expression, the more he loved her!
"Uh-huh!"
Li Shaochuan arrived at An Xinyue's car door, opened it for her, and took her hand as they returned to the restaurant they had just been in, going straight up to the second floor.
Lu Family Villa
"Hey, Xinyi, how did your blind date go? Why are you looking so downcast? Did it not go well?"
Liu Yuqing was eating fruit in the living room, admiring her manicured nails, when she saw Lu Xinyi, who had just returned home, and seemed to be in a bad mood.
And she only went on a blind date for a short time, and she's already back. Could it be...?
Upon hearing the sound, Lu Jianming put down his newspaper and looked towards the villa gate. Lu Xinyi's makeup was ruined, as if she had been crying, and she seemed to be in a bad mood.
"Dad! Mom! Waaaaaahh ...
Lu Xinyi burst into tears, feeling wronged. She was feeling suffocated in the car... But because there was a driver present, she forced herself to swallow her grievances so as not to lose face or ruin her image.
"Xinyi, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing her daughter crying so heartbreakingly, Liu Yuqing lost all interest in admiring her newly done manicure and quickly got up to come to her.
"Mom! Waaah... Li Shaochuan is so cruel... He rejected me as soon as he arrived! And he even said he has a girlfriend, and that woman has been watching us at the restaurant the whole time, and she even gave me a hard time!"
Lu Xinyi finished speaking haltingly through tears. She was filled with hatred! She had never been humiliated like this before!
"What? How could he possibly have a girlfriend? Your Grandpa Li called personally to tell him! Could it be that he doesn't want to get married, so he hired an actress to play along?"
Liu Yuqing had found out everything clearly. There had never been any trouble around Li Shaochuan, so how could he suddenly have a girlfriend?
"So you're saying he was putting on an act for me? Just to avoid Grandpa Li's pressure to get married?"
Upon hearing these words, Lu Xinyi immediately stopped crying, and a glimmer of hope appeared in her eyes!
"I'm sure it is! Look, how could he suddenly have a girlfriend out of nowhere?"
No matter what, she would never believe that Li Shaochuan suddenly had a girlfriend in the last couple of days. It's too unbelievable! Only her daughter is so naive and easily fooled!
"But...I saw them kissing in the car..."
Was the kiss with that woman in the car just an act by Li Shaochuan for her to see? Was it all to disobey Grandpa Li's arrangements?
"Could you be mistaken? Maybe it's just a trick of perspective, are you sure you saw it clearly?"
As if she had heard the biggest joke in the world, Liu Yuqing asked Lu Xinyi again to confirm the matter!
"It seems I saw it wrong. I only saw the back view, not the front..."
