The man in the rain looked at the entrance of the company very carefully.
It was Fu Minglang.
Jiang Yansheng frowned. She felt the gaze pass through her and fall somewhere behind her.
Fu Minglang stood there stiffly. He didn't move at all, as if he was waiting for something.
The cold rain fell from his hair, and his clothes were all wet. They clung tightly to him, but he didn't seem to feel anything.
"I borrowed an umbrella." Yu Zhouzhou's voice came from behind. She patted Jiang Yansheng's shoulder.
"There's only one umbrella at the security guard's place. Let's use one. I think it's a shower. Maybe it won't rain again when we get to the hotel …" Yu Zhouzhou muttered as she walked over with a long black triangular umbrella in her hand.
Jiang Yansheng was startled. She subconsciously followed the figure in the rain not far away. However, the other party seemed to have seen something scary. He turned around and started running.
Not long after, he disappeared without a trace.
She frowned and said, "I didn't have time to stop a taxi just now. Wait a minute."
Yu Zhouzhou reached out and waved her hand in front of Jiang Yansheng curiously. "What's wrong with you? You look absent-minded. "
"It's nothing. I'm just a little annoyed because it's raining." Jiang Yansheng waved her hand. "I've always been like this. It's fine."
She laughed dryly. After Fu Minglang left, she actually breathed a sigh of relief.
If Yu Zhouzhou saw Fu Minglang in such a sorry state, she might not be in a good mood for the rest of the day.
There were quite a number of taxis at the entrance of the company. She randomly stopped one and got in.
It was quiet in the car, and Yu Zhouzhou didn't look like she was looking forward to it.
Although Yu Zhouzhou had put in a lot of effort to dress up for the blind date, it was as if he was completing a mission.
Jiang Yansheng leaned back in the soft seat and looked at the glass being washed by the raindrops. Fu Minglang's figure seemed to flash in the dark corner of the street outside.
He narrowed his eyes.
In the past, Yu Zhouzhou had told her that if she wanted to see the person she liked, she could not wait for even a moment. She wanted to run.
But now, he was running away from her.
When they arrived at the hotel, the rain was indeed a little lighter. Fortunately, Yu Zhouzhou's new clothes were spotless. Jiang Yansheng followed her into the hotel.
"We've made a reservation," Yu Zhouzhou said to the waiter with a smile.
The waiter suddenly understood. "Miss Yu, right? Come with me."
"Mr. Xiao has already made a reservation."
Jiang Yansheng paused, and her eyes darkened.
His surname was Xiao?
She must have thought too much. In Jingcheng, there were many rich people with the surname Xiao, right?
It was impossible for her to meet Xiao Chuyun's family again.
However, when they arrived at the reserved table, the man with his back to them turned around. The moment he saw Jiang Yansheng, he stood up straight as if he had been electrocuted.
"Why are you here?" His sharp and noisy voice almost pierced people's eardrums.
Jiang Yansheng looked up lazily. She had been excited to come to the blind date with Yu Zhouzhou, but now she became bored.
"Why can't I be here?"
Even if Xiao Chuyi was wearing a clean and well-tailored suit today, and his hair was also styled, she still couldn't forget that when Xiao Chuyi first saw her, he had a warm and fragrant body in his arms, and his mouth was full of disgusting mockery.
"What's wrong? Do you know each other? "
Yu Zhouzhou hadn't taken his seat yet, and he asked worriedly.
Jiang Yansheng patted the back of her hand gently, "Fortunately, you brought me here today."
She turned to Xiao Chuyi and became teasing, "Otherwise, I might not have recognized the scumbag in a suit."
"Hey! Jiang Yansheng, don't be so shameless in front of everyone, okay? " Xiao Chuyi's expression didn't look too good. He fidgeted with the tie that was tied around his neck and stood up. "Didn't we just have an unpleasant blind date? You don't have to slander me all the time, do you? "
When he turned to look at Yu Zhouzhou, his expression changed a little. He suppressed his anger and forced a smile to Yu Zhouzhou.
Yu Zhouzhou looked at Jiang Yansheng curiously and then at Xiao Chuyi, and he smiled back politely.
She pulled Jiang Yansheng to sit down.
Jiang Yansheng shrugged and said, "I don't have the patience to follow you around. I'm busy enough with my own things every day. It's just that my friend happened to have a blind date with you today, so I really just followed you around …"
"By the way, have you changed your mind this time?" Jiang Yansheng looked around. "Where's the woman you brought with you?"
"What woman? No!" Xiao Chuyi gritted his teeth. He had given his brother a warning this time, so he was ready to turn over a new leaf and get married. He hadn't expected to run into this woman again. "I haven't touched any women recently."
Jiang Yansheng raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiao Chuyi from head to toe. She pursed her lips and found that he did look more decent than before.
In the past, Xiao Chuyi could almost dominate the entire entertainment industry by himself. How could he suddenly change his mind?
Xiao Chuyi asked Yu Zhouzhou about his food and drink taboos. Then, he ignored Jiang Yansheng and gave the menu to the waiter.
He put his hands on the table and said reluctantly, "After I went on the blind date with you, my brother froze my card for about a week. Then, my parents told me about the need to get married, so I've been going on blind dates recently."
Under Yu Zhouzhou's excited gaze, Xiao Chuyi bit the bullet and said, "If it feels good, we can have a meal together next time so that we can get to know each other better …"
Jiang Yansheng couldn't help but sneer. "Mr. Xiao, according to what you said, you've probably been going on blind dates for more than a week, haven't you?"
Xiao Chuyi nodded with a displeased look on his face.
Jiang Yansheng said casually, "Then why haven't you dated any of them yet?"
The man's face turned red. "It's none of your business."
Jiang Yansheng spread out his hands helplessly. "Fine. Anyway, I'm here today to freeload."
The dishes were luxurious western cuisine. There was only a little food on the plate that was as big as a person's face. Even the broccoli on the side was bigger than the food, which made people lose their appetite.
Although Yu Zhouzhou had been smiling and dealing with the awkward topic that Xiao Chuyi started, he was not in high spirits.
When she was almost done, she stood up and said, "Excuse me. I need to go to the bathroom."
Jiang Yansheng put down the knife and fork that he was happily using to cut the steak. He chewed the slightly hard meat in his mouth with great effort and stood up with Yu Zhouzhou. Under Xiao Chuyi's widened eyes, he smiled incomparably warmly.
"I'll go too."
Xiao Chuyi slammed the knife onto the plate with a 'pa' sound. Under Jiang Yansheng's pitiful and curious gaze, he muttered, "En."
Today's blind date was ruined again.
Xiao Chuyi grabbed his hair in annoyance. The moment he thought about how he would have to face his big brother's smiling eyes when he got home, he couldn't bring himself to do so. He raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Yansheng. Even though Jiang Yansheng didn't have much makeup on, he still couldn't take his eyes off him.
He tightened his grip on the knife and fork.
His pupils contracted slightly, as if he had thought of something, and he loosened his grip.
…
The bathroom was running. Yu Zhouzhou went in and touched up her lipstick in front of the mirror under the warm light.
Jiang Yansheng pushed the door open and came in. Her hand paused for a moment before she continued to apply lipstick.
"The one we met today is not suitable." Jiang Yansheng leaned against the side and tried to persuade her.
Yu Zhouzhou smiled faintly. "I know. I knew who he was when you mentioned it just now. He is the young master of Yun Entertainment. A man living in a world of sensual pleasures will inevitably like to flirt with women. But after all, today is a blind date arranged by my mother."
Jiang Yansheng breathed a sigh of relief. His gaze loosened a little and he whispered, "He is obviously not a good person. Why did your mother introduce you to this blind date? It was the same last time. Sure enough, blind dates are not very reliable. "
Especially in the upper-class circle, there were only so many people. If they were not from the same school, they were often on the news, or they had met at a cocktail party. There was nothing new about them at all.
Yu Zhouzhou thought for a moment and said sincerely, "Yansheng, you can't say that about others. After all, in their eyes, I might not be a good person, right?"
She smiled bitterly. "Back then, my parents and I had a falling out and almost drew a line. Isn't it known to everyone? Now that they are willing to recognize me again, they have no right to complain. "
It was her own choice, and she felt that she had made the wrong choice.
Jiang Yansheng raised an eyebrow. "Who doesn't think you are good?"
"At least, I don't think the one outside is good enough for you." She added confidently, "Blind dates can't have a good ending in a short period of time. When I have time, I will introduce you to a few good ones."
Yu Zhouzhou did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Sorry to trouble you."
She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at herself in the mirror with red lips and shoulder-length hair. She laughed self-deprecatingly. "I've never put on such red lips before. I almost can't recognize myself."
"Tell me, how long has it been? How can a person change so much?"
Jiang Yansheng crossed his arms and looked at her pale face. His voice was hesitant. "Did you not have enough Western food just now? You don't look very good."
Yu Zhouzhou smiled. "No, it's indirect. In the beginning, my heart would hurt as long as I was conscious. Now, I feel uncomfortable as long as I see him."
Her eyes were penetrating. "Did you see him at the entrance of the company just now?"
Jiang Yansheng clicked her tongue and her eyes flickered quickly. She messed up Yu Zhouzhou's smooth hair and said with a smile, "What are you talking about? You must have seen wrongly. Who did you see?"
Fu Minglang hid so quickly, but did Yu Zhouzhou still see him?
