You remember the blind date in Ch. 2. This is the continuation.
As she walked quickly to the entrance of the restaurant, the urging call came, Shuangyi picked up the phone, and Bai Ya’s extremely irate voice came from there: “Have you arrived? Why are you not answering the phone? I have called you at least 10 times!”
Had the phone rung? Shuangyi started rushing, and said quickly, “I’ll be there soon, I’m at the entrance.”
Hearing this, Bai Ya was relieved: “You haven’t been to the restaurant before, right? I’m in a traffic jam. Tell him that you don’t know when we will reach. Go in first. Don’t talk nonsense when you see the manager later. Just smile and laugh whenever you want. Don’t talk nonsense, if he says something. You just keep smiling if the place is too good for you and don’t speak nonsense, Ok?
“Ban Ya…” Shuangyi had an ominous premonition, “What the hell did you ask me to do? No, you did. What kind of bad things did you call me to push on me?”
“How is it possible! Am I that kind of person? Anyway, I’m introducing a man to you. Although he will most probably despise you, you usually won’t even have the chance to see such a superb man. Let alone eating together, in short, don’t talk nonsense, you can just acquiesce to whatever he says! “
What made her look down on her so much… Shuangyi was speechless, but Bai Ya seemed to be really anxious. She spoke a lot and she was not even able to insert any words in between.
“What do you mean by being silent, do you want to escape?”
“…No.” When she heard this, Bai Ya was relieved. Although things seemed strange, it shouldn’t be a big deal. Besides, there is going to be a super handsome guy. I’m going to see him.
“Then you go in quickly, the manager doesn’t like others being late.”
“I know, but you’d better tell me what’s going on?” Shuangyi couldn’t help wondering if Bai Ya had no traffic jam, and was just planning to trick her into a trap without telling her anything?
“There is no time now. I’ll have a chance to explain it to you later. Anyway, it is a blind date for you.” Bai Ya did not answer as expected, but her tone softened, and she exhorted, “That’s it. You made copies of my notes for four years. Don’t talk nonsense. I’m hanging up.”
As if afraid that she would continue to ask questions, Bai Ya hung up the phone hurriedly, and Shuangyi frowned while holding the phone.
Ban Ya’s voice… Why did it have a guilty undertone! It seemed that this blind date definitely has another mystery. Also, although her class notes were copied by Bai Ya before each exam in the university, the questions Bai Ya could not answer in each exam were copied from her. Good = =
Having no more thoughts, Shuangyi picked up the phone and walked up the steps in front of the restaurant, where a smiling waitress opened the door timely.
“Welcome.”
“Miss, how many people in your party?”
“Well, I’m looking for someone.”
Oops! Shuangyi suddenly thought of a question. Bai Ya never told her what that person was like, she didn’t even know the last name, how can she find him now? Could it be that I have to search for a man with a handsome appearance and attractive temperament?
But… Judging from Bai Ya’s performance just now, the truth of what she said earlier is really open to question…
Shuangyi was planning to call Bai Ya on the phone, but the waitress smiled and said, “May I ask if you are looking for a gentleman?”
“Uh, yes.” The waitress smiled and said, “He is waiting for you on the second floor, please come with me.”
Shuangyi followed the waitress to the second floor and looked at the restaurant on the way. The layout of this restaurant was quite exquisite and elegant. The space was large, but there were not many tables. It looked very open and spacious. Most of the male and female guests were dressed formally, conversing with decent low laughter, with soft lights swaying, and surrounded by a clean piano sound. The ambience was very romantic and peaceful.
Such an environment made Shuangyi feel a little expectant in his heart. Ban Ya said that person was so good, then even a few shortcomings could be tolerated…
However, the current waitress who led the way stopped. When Shuangyi looked down to introduce herself, she was dumbfounded.
……
What, is this called handsome appearance and attractive temperament?
This was the best product that Bai Ya rarely saw?
Although she knew that Bai Ya’s words needed to be discounted, was it too exaggerated for it to be in a negative score? Shuangyi looked at the man sitting not far away, his rich face and unique oily hair, and the huge bunch of blue roses on the table…
Did the waitress recognise the wrong person? Shuangyi glanced around the restaurant, and whispered to the waitress: “Is there anyone else waiting for someone?”
The waitress smiled doubtfully: “Miss, only this gentleman is waiting for someone.”
Indeed, Shuangyi just glanced at the restaurant, the other tables were all occupied by pairs, only this table was sitting alone.
Ok… Okay! Maybe Bai Ya has the Martian aesthetic? Maybe the big blue roses had special meaning? Shuang Yi consoled herself, plucked up the courage to walk over, and nodded very politely before sitting down opposite the man.
The man actually looked at her with suspicion when Shuangyi walked towards him. When she sat down, the skeptical gaze suddenly turned into disappointment and anger. He looked Shuangyi up and down, but his tone was not good. And he said: “You are the one they picked?”
What kind of person was this?
Shuang Yi was about to ask him if he was Ban Ya’s boss, but she couldn’t help but wonder, and hesitantly did not answer immediately. But obviously the man took this hesitation as a default admission, and his expression became even more angry.
He took out his mobile phonem dialed a number and started shouting: “The person you picked for me completely does not meet my requirements! I gave you a list of requirements. You just found me this kind of woman who I can find on the streets by handful…photos? What photos? I didn’t see the photos you sent me. Do you know how much money I can make in a minute? How can I have time to look at the photos? If I had time to see the photos, would I have to entrust you to get me married… I am very dissatisfied with your service. You can’t get any of the remaining money… next time? No next time! I will change to another service.”
The man snapped his cell phone and said bluntly: “I’m not satisfied with you, you can go.”
At this time, Shuangyi held the menu that the waiter handed her, completely stunned.
Where has the plot developed to? Why can’t she keep up at all? It’s too dramatic, none of her novels have such ups and downs. Also, what did he say about millions? What kind of marriage?
As a romance novelist who never lacked imagination, Shuang Yi immediately thought of it-is it the arranged millionaire bride phenomenon of recent years?
Ban Ya called her to come, could it be that this man was a millionaire looking for a marriage partner, and Ban Ya was chosen, but didn’t want to come, so she caught her to replace?
That’s not right, why would Bai Ya do this?
Shuangyi was still in a mess. Big Brother Blue Rose stood up and put on his coat and was about to leave. However, when the coat was halfway through, he suddenly froze, as if he had been punched, standing stiffly in a weird posture. His eyes were looking obliquely behind Shuangyi and the original anger on his face disappeared, replaced by an expression as if struck by lightning.
What happened again?
This elder brother is not from Sichuan, right?
Shuangyi admired his face-changing skills and looked behind herself curiously. She suddenly saw a pair of lovers sitting on the diagonally rear window… well, it should be a pair of lovers, attracting attention.
It was an outstanding pair of young man and woman. From Shuangyi’s angle, in fact, only the front of the woman could be seen. For the man, Shuangyi could only see his upright side back, and the slender fingers elegantly placed on the crystal wine glass.
But that was enough. Shuangyi’s heartbeat started beating two times faster, as she watched the man stretch out his graceful hand with some concentration. At this moment, Shuangyi suddenly understood why those male painters were inspired by seeing beautiful women, because she was also like this now. She actually saw an incomplete silhouette of another and wrote a backstory for him in a few small movements between gestures. She also had the urge to tackle him for sex.
After a long while, Shuangyi looked away from the man with difficulty, and looked at the woman opposite him, and was immediately surprised again.
Definitely a rare beauty! With picturesque eyebrows and a smart smile, wearing a grass-green dress, the whole person was as pure and beautiful as spring, yet elegant and generous. Blue Rose’s thunderstruck expression was because of her.
Thinking of Brother Rose, Shuangyi turned around, and immediately became embarrassed.
The eldest Brother Blue Rose in front of her was still in the same posture as she was just now, staring straight at the beauty. Although it is indeed a rare beauty, isn’t this elder brother being too exaggerated? Shuangyi looked around and there were already several people looking at him.
Shuangyi coughed.
No response.
She coughed again.
The fascinated Big Brother Blue Rose finally glanced at her.
“Hehe, do you want to sit down and drink something?” Shuangyi motioned to him to look around. Brother Rose finally realized that his posture was too conspicuous, and hurriedly sat down.
Shuangyi beckoned and called the waiter, then smiled and said, “Big brother, what is your name?”
The man looked at her vigilantly: “What are you asking about this for? I will not treat you…”
“I know I know; I know you are not satisfied with me. I won’t worry if you don’t think about it.” Shuangyi quickly raised her hand to show her innocence.
After ordering a pot of tea, Shuangyi rolled her eyes, the surface was very calm, but in fact, she was already curious. It seems that it is really a million-dollar marriage. Although this kind of thing is common in the newspapers, it is the first time she had personally experienced it. She would be really sorry if she did not dig up some information.
But this Blue Rose brother seems to be very vigilant…
Well, let’s start with the topics that interest him!
So Shuangyi spoke with admiration: “That lady in the green dress is so beautiful!” Hearing the words lady in the green dress, the man’s expression immediately became besotted. He looked straight at the beauty and muttered. “That’s what the ideal person in my heart is.”
“Yeah, yeah, her eyes are so beautiful.”
“It is the good temperament.” Brother Rose looked at Shuangyi with “you are so superficial”.
Shuangyi got ready and quickly agreed: “Haha, yes, good temperament, good temperament.”
The conversation quickly opened up. Shuangyi’s affinity had always been very strong. The man quickly put down his guard and talked more and more. Shuangyi deliberately or unintentionally cited the topic of marriage and got a lot of information as expected.
For example, this gentleman, whose surname was Cai, was indeed looking for marriage. So he spent a lot of money to entrust a high-end matchmaking service to find the ideal bride for him from society through print media and the Internet. The requirements were very high and required comprehensive development of morality, intelligence, physical education, and art. (During this period, Mr. Cai expressed doubts about Shuangyi’s selection. Shuangyi humbly stated that she looked more ordinary, but she was still very strong in other aspects.)
For example, Mr. Cai was very good at keeping secrets, and until the selected person appeared for the meeting, they won’t get any information. After meeting Mr. Cai, they would have the following text if Mr. Cai was satisfied, and then the secret code of their meeting was the huge blue rose bouquet on the table.
For another example, it was said that this way of marriage was quite popular, but many people did not conduct marriage this way in society publicly, but secretly conducted it through high-end services. This was how a friend of Mr. Cai found a satisfactory wife, and Mr. Cai was also inspired by his friend.
Shuangyi listened with gusto, and got inspired as well, a handsome man, a beautiful lady, misunderstandings, and final reunion, the dog-blooded drama gradually formed in her mind, and she was about to dig deeper. But from the corner of her eyes, she saw Bai Ya suddenly appear in and turned to look towards the top of the stairs. Bai Ya, who hadn’t seen her for a long time, was standing there and looking around.
Shuangyi immediately waved at her warmly, Bai Ya also saw her, walked towards her quickly, halfway through, she suddenly stopped, looked at them suspiciously, and stopped for a while before continuing to walk over, with a strange expression. Glancing at the rich man, she asked Shuangyi, “Who is he? Where is the manager?”
Shuangyi paused.
Sure enough this was the wrong person? But in fact, she was not so surprised.
“I don’t know, he probably didn’t come. When I came, this eldest brother was waiting for someone. The others were in pairs. You didn’t tell me anything about him.”
“Not here? Impossible, the manager is the most trustworthy.” Bai Ya looked around suspiciously, her eyes stopped suddenly, and exclaimed in a low voice: “Why is the manager sitting there, who is that woman?”
Shuangyi followed her gaze and discovered that where Bai Ya’s gaze fell, it turned out to be the pair of outstanding young man and woman by the window.
Could it be that the gentleman who made people entranced with his back alone was Bai Ya’s boss? And she was the one he was supposed to be on a blind date with?
Shuangyi opened her mouth unconsciously, and suddenly realized that Mr. Cai also seemed struck by lightning. It was estimated that she should be struck by lightning as well, right?
Life… As expected, more dramatic than novels!
“I’m going to ask what’s going on.” Saying the sentence, Bai Ya hurriedly walked over there. Shuangyi looked at Mr. Cai who was a little confused on the other side, and the ancient scholar with a smile clasped his fists.
“Congratulations!”
Mr. Cai looked at Shuangui with a neurotic expression.
Oops! He really doesn’t cooperate. Looking at Mr. Cai’s still puzzled appearance, Shuangyi waved her hand very flamboyantly and boldly: “Go! Brother Cai, you pick up the beautiful woman, I’ll see to the handsome guy.”
