Chapter 2
air and beautiful skin.Dressed in a silk embroidered qipao, her figure was graceful and alluring. With a gentle curve of her red lips, she exuded elegance and sophistication. Besides the faint smile l...Shen Yian didn't have time to ask more questions, he ran downstairs, took the subway and drove to the address Aunt Mo sent.
A high-end restaurant.
A romantic crystal chandelier, a wall of fresh flowers, and gentle instrumental music create an atmosphere of sophistication everywhere.
Outside the entrance hall stood a sign that read, "Golf Singles Club."
Isn't this just a disguised matchmaking event
Shen Yian was full of question marks. Aunt Mo seemed to have said that she had divorced a long time ago. Could it be that she wanted to have...a twilight romance
Aunt Mo takes good care of herself. In her fifties, she looks like she's in her early forties. She always dresses elegantly and finding a partner shouldn't be difficult for her.
What can you ask her to do
Just as she was puzzled, a hand pulled her behind the greenery.
"Yian, you're finally here."
"Auntie Mo What are you doing outside Didn't you come here for a blind date" Shen Yian asked.
Aunt Mo took off her sunglasses and giggled.
“At my age, I don't want to find a man to bother me. It's my son who is getting set up on dates, but this woman came along and was so shameless! My son ignored her, and she started badmouthing him. I finally persuaded my son to go on a date, and now I don't want her to ruin everything. Can you please go in there and smooth things over”
"Auntie Mo, don't worry. Which one is your son" Shen Yian comforted Auntie Mo, who was gritting her teeth angrily.
The man sitting at the second table by the window, wearing a black shirt, is called Song Lin. He is thirty years old, 189 centimeters tall, average personality but handsome, and he is...
"Stop, I see. You don't need to tell me the details." It wasn't her blind date anyway.
Shen Yian brushed the leaves away from the noodle stall and saw the man by the window, with his back to her.
Although you can't see his face, his upright figure gives off a kind of cold and oppressive feeling.
His elongated hand rested on the glass, the swirling champagne making his fingers appear as pure white as jade.
His profile was reflected in the glass, deep and still.
In contrast, the woman across from him wearing a one-shoulder maxi dress didn't look as pleased.
The woman was pretty but had a mocking look in her eyes, often raising her eyebrows as if to show disdain.
Seeing this, Aunt Mo pushed Shen Yian.
"I'll leave it to you, An."
"Well, but..." Shen Yian pointed to the people in the hall. "Can I go into such a high-end networking event"
"Don't worry, I've prepared this for you," Aunt Mo handed her a card with a picture of orchids printed on it. "If someone stops you, just show him this card, and he will definitely let you in."
"Okay."
Shen Yian hesitated for a moment, but ultimately agreed.
She took the card and walked into the hall, where a waiter politely stopped her.
"Miss, please show me your invitation card."
Shen Yian took out the orchid card, and the waiter's eyes widened in surprise. He immediately dropped his arms and nodded respectfully.
"Miss, please come in."
Thank you.
Shen Yian looked at the card in his hand, what kind of card was so powerful
Would Aunt Mo not join as a member just to set up her son on a date
There's no greater love than a parent's love.
Shen Yian carefully put the card into his bag for fear of losing it to Aunt Mo, then walked straight to the window. Before he could speak, he heard a sharp, sarcastic voice from the woman.
"Who do you think you are Everyone here today is worth millions. You're just a programmer making 20,000 yuan a month, driving a beat-up Volkswagen. Miss me, I only let you buy me a drink because you look good. You don't even appreciate it Let me tell you, if you don't apologize to me, no one here will talk to you today. It's a waste of all that membership fee you paid!"
The woman finished speaking with a snort, but her eyes greedily fixated on the man's face. Her fingertips enticingly danced around the strands of hair on her chest.
Shen Yian felt that she was being too aggressive. He quickly stepped forward and stood in front of the table.
"I."
"I'm communicating with him, if this lady doesn't like it, then please don't waste our time."
Shen Yian spoke, turning his face towards Song Lin. The words he was about to say got stuck in his throat all of a sudden.
A strikingly handsome face crashed into Shen Yian's eyes, a face so captivating that he couldn't help but wonder, if this was even impressive, who else could possibly be
Ink-like pupils, slightly raised phoenix eyes, starlight scattered like feelings, neither loving nor hating, making one's heart beat wildly.
He is very beautiful, but not at all feminine. His eyebrows and eyes are cold and reserved, and even a slight frown carries an overwhelming aura of pressure.
Song Lin glanced at Shen Yian, his eyes slightly darkened. What a coincidence, Miss Ten Thousand."
Just went on a blind date right after breaking up with your boyfriend
Shen Yian felt a chill run down his spine. Did they know each other Why was he looking at him like that
The woman across from her noticed Song Lin staring at Shen Yian and got up angrily.
"Look at her, she's dressed so poorly. She pretends to be someone important here, but what does she really have"
At least her face is real, I don't like tech faces.
Song Lin leaned back, a cigarette appearing between his fingers. He lit it slowly, puffing out white mist that veiled his face, adding a touch of languid danger to his features.
Her face turned pale, and she stood up abruptly.
"As expected, he's just a poor loser who doesn't know how to appreciate things."
The woman let out a cold snort, stomped on her high heels deliberately bumping into Shen Yian, and glared at her menacingly.
Shen Yian's shoulder throbbed, and his foot reacted quickly to kick out.
"Ouch!" The woman's high heel twisted, and she landed flat on the ground.
Shen Yian feigned nervousness and said, "Miss, your nose seems to be crooked."
A woman covered her nose with one hand and stumbled out.
Shen Yian bit back a smile, noticing Song Lin's gaze, and immediately returned to normal. Just as he was about to explain to Song Lin, a familiar voice came from behind him.
"Yīān How are you here You dare betray me"
It's such a small world, running into Gu Cheng here.
That's not a dating event, is it
The man who just promised to marry her appeared at a high-end dating event the next second.
Who has the right to say that about her
Shen Yian turned around and looked at Gu Cheng with a cold expression: "Why are you allowed to be here Can't I Besides, there's no betrayal between us, we've already broken up."
Gu Cheng's eyes flashed with anger as he commanded, "Get back here immediately! This is not a place for you."
Shen Yian ignored him and sat directly across from Song Lin.
"Mr. Song, ignore him, let's continue."
Song Lin didn't say anything, smoking by himself. He was imposing and ignored Gu Cheng completely.
Gu Cheng felt very embarrassed to be looked down upon by the man, so he glanced at Song Lin's identity card on the table and couldn't help but let out a snort of laughter.
"Shen Yian, this is the person you found Just a broken programmer Can he meet your needs"
"Gu Cheng! This has nothing to do with you!" Shen Yian warned, looking at Gu Cheng.
Since Ke Gucheng had finally gotten a chance to redeem himself, how could he possibly give it up
He leaned over the table, his hands propping him up, and looked down at Song Lin with an air of superiority.
"Dude, it's not my fault. I'm just worried you're getting played. She was with me just an hour ago, and then turned around and went straight to you. It's obvious she's looking for someone to take the fall. You have no idea how big her appetite is."
Hearing this, Shen Yian's hand under the table clenched tightly. After three years of dating, she had always thought that even if they broke up, they should at least show each other some respect. She never expected that in his eyes, she was so worthless.
She took a deep breath, grabbed the wine glass in front of Song Lin, and splashed it on Gu Cheng's face.
"Are you awake You should take a look at the ID card on your collar. Department Director When did you get promoted A million dollars a year Are you happy beans What qualifications do you have to talk to others like that"
"Shen Yian!"
Gu Cheng stared dumbfoundedly at Shen Yian, never having imagined that the well-behaved and sensible girl would actually rebel.
Because of Shen Yian's words, the people around him pointed at him and whispered about him, making him feel ashamed. He didn't think twice and waved his hand to hit Shen Yian, but Song Lin caught his wrist with one hand and pressed it against the table. The pain made his face contort in agony, and he looked even more embarrassed.
Song Lin remained as cool and aloof as ever, even taking the time to light a cigarette between his fingers. The faint scent of tobacco lingered in the air above the table, not unpleasant.
He said impassively, “Fake watch, fake necklace, fake belt, fake ID. Things here come at a price. Don't want to get exposed and kicked out Then disappear from my sight immediately.”
"You..."
Gu Cheng's eyes widened in shock. He had bought perfect replicas, how could a programmer possibly tell the difference
"Three, two..." Song Lin's voice was deep as he counted down.
"Just go." Gu Cheng shook off his jacket after breaking free, looking unpleasantly at Shen Yi'an pointing at his ID card. "Yi An, in a short while, this will be my identity. I know you love me very much, I'm giving you a chance to regret it."
"Get out of here right now." Shen Yian felt like every word he said was grating on his nerves.
Gu Cheng left, Shen Yian gratefully looked at Song Lin, just about to open his mouth to thank him, when a figure sat down beside him.
"Yi An, congratulations on breaking up with that man. A month ago, he started going to dating events to meet women."
The speaker is Aunt Mo.
It turned out that Auntie Mo had specially asked her over to make her see through Gu Cheng's true nature.
One month ago, it was when her mother suddenly fell seriously ill.
>It turns out that Gu Cheng's so-called unwavering love was all an act.
He only saw her as a fallback option while still searching for better alternatives.
"Auntie Mo, thank you." Shen Yian said with relief.
"You're welcome. Let's cut to the chase, or you could just marry my son out of pity"
“......”
Huhh space.After a while, Shen Yian lifted the curtain and gratefully looked at the caregiver aunt who was drying towels in the sun."Auntie, thank you.""That's right, Ms. Shen, please rest assured, the d...
