C78 Matchmaking

It wasn't that she didn't agree with Father Qiao's thoughts.

"Mm, when she comes back next time, you guys can try."

"Well, we wouldn't be so worried if it was a proper job."

Mother Qiao then talked about the matter of her youngest daughter with her eldest daughter before recalling the issue of her eldest daughter's relationship.

"You and Xu Yicheng have been apart for a while. Have you made any further progress?"

Qiao Xi leaned back on the sofa and suddenly thought of Shen Ye An. He immediately shook his head. "No."

"Xi Xi, you're not young either, you can consider the matter of love. Girl, age is very important."

Seeing the hidden meaning in her mother's words, Qiao Xi smiled and leaned on her shoulder: "Are you going to let me go on a blind date?"

Mrs Qiao gently smiled and patted her hands: "Mm, upstairs, Aunt Wang, that day I came to my house to introduce you to a young man. As a financial man, he has a good education, do you want to meet him?"

"You seem very satisfied?"

"Mhm, your family is not bad, and you won't suffer even if you marry into them. However, this will still depend on your fate. If you don't like it, Mom won't force you. You can go meet her."

However, what Qiao Xi was thinking was Shen Yeyan's words. If she had a new boyfriend, he probably wouldn't pester her.

"Alright, I'll go and see him then."

"Okay, let me tell your Aunt Wang."

Mother Qiao went in to make a phone call and came out later saying that the other party had booked a place to have dinner together.

Qiao Xi nodded in agreement. "You're going with us tonight?"

"I won't be going. You youngsters will meet and chat, and watch movies. It's too much of a hindrance for me to go."

"Yes."

Due to their blind date tonight, Qiao Xi didn't go back to the Chen family villa in the afternoon. She didn't go out to make an appointment until the evening when she put on her makeup.

The other party was in the city center, so after she left the subway station, she walked all the way there. The night wind carried a dry, hot feeling as it brushed against her slightly cold body.

Qiao Xi arrived early and purposely ordered a drink to wait for him. When Shen Yeyan's message came in, she directly ignored it and purposely placed her phone inside her bag.

As long as she thought of Shen Yeyan, her mind would be in a mess and she would want to escape from the tyrannical him. Qiao Xi held her chin as she looked outside.

Just as she finished her drink, someone suddenly stood in front of the table. Qiao Xi raised his head and looked at the young man with a natural gaze.

Her calm gaze swept past the man's protruding stomach, his thick neck, and his golden necklace. Even though her heart was churning, she still greeted him politely, "Hello, I'm Qiao Xi."

"I, Jiang Kai, have seen your photo before. I never thought that someone would look even better than your photo."

The flesh on his body was swaying. He was not tall, and because of his obesity he appeared shorter, the hair on his head had long left his body, leaving only two sides. If it were not for the fact that he was introduced to Aunt Wang, those who did not know would have thought he was forty.

Qiao Xi maintained a faint smile on his face. "Thank you for your praise."

"Take a look at what you want to eat. Just order as you please, there is no need to save money for me."

Jiang Kai casually threw the menu in front of her and the car keys on the table. With the BMW license plate, his every word and action was like a nouveau riche. Qiao Xi no longer had any interest in eating; the man opposite her was not suitable for him.

"Take a look, I'm going to the bathroom."

Jiang Kai's astute eyes swept over her body. He was sitting up now, but his figure was too slim and his curves were too convex. Along with her pure and beautiful face, she was simply a beauty.

"You go ahead, I'll order first."

Qiao Xi nodded and left. She stood in the washroom and called Mrs Qiao, purposely informing her of the situation.

Mama Qiao had also heard the introductions and did not expect it to be like this.

"Since you don't like it, just finish the meal and don't contact me again in the future. I'll go talk to your Aunt Wang."

"Alright, I understand."

Qiao Xi hung up and waited in the bathroom for a while before coming out again.

In the period of time before she left, Jiang Kai had already ordered dishes and also lit a cigarette for himself. He smoked as if no one was around him.

When she sat down again, he leaned a little closer to her, and the smoke he exhaled almost reached her face. Qiao Xi felt nauseous a few times, and deliberately leaned back away from him.

Fortunately, the waiter came over and reminded him, "Sorry, cigarettes are not allowed in the store, could you please extinguish it?"

Jiang Kai's face darkened, "What? "No cigarettes, what kind of store is this? Even if a customer smokes, they won't be able to."

"Apologies, sir. Smoking is prohibited in the shop. I'll trouble you to put it out. You'll affect other customers if you do that."

"Who did I affect?"

A few tables of people looked over as well. Qiao Xi had never felt so humiliated before, so he had to say, "Don't make things difficult for her. Extinguish your cigarette, the shop clearly wrote it down."

Jiang Kai gave Qiao Xi face by extinguishing the cigarette reluctantly. He threw the cigarette on the ground and ground it with his toes. The smile on Qiao Xi's face disappeared.

Jiang Kai, however, did not feel anything was amiss. He continued his didactic speech, "You don't like men to smoke?"

"It depends on the occasion."

"Let me tell you, if a man doesn't smoke, then a man is a woman."

His mouth was filled with the taste of cigarettes. Qiao Xi frowned in disgust and also smoked. She remembered that Shen Yeyan had a deep look in her eyes, but didn't seem to resent it. She even looked at him a little more.

"Don't believe me, the men around me all smoke, drink, tattoo, this is the real man."

He intentionally rolled up his sleeves, revealing the tattoo on his arm. A fierce tiger came down the mountain. After reading, Qiao Xi praised him sarcastically.

"This tiger is so fat."

Jiang Kai said complacently, "Watch carefully. This is what you call a true man."

As he spoke, he poured himself a glass of white wine. Qiao Xi reminded him, "You drive here."

"Don't worry, as long as you don't get checked out, everything will be fine. Besides, you are driving on the main road, so no one will come investigate you."

"You are just lucky. You are not responsible for your own life, and you are not responsible for the lives of others."

"I'm a good driver. I used to race cars before, so I usually drive on the road. It's too easy to drive. I can even drive if I close my eyes."

The corner of Qiao Xi's mouth curled into a cold smile. She had met such a wondrous person on her blind date. Such a person deserved to be single.

She wasn't in the mood to eat at all. All she wanted was to finish her meal and leave. After the dishes were served, she hastily ate a few mouthfuls.

Jiang Kai had ordered all kinds of meatloaf and other kinds of meat. One mouthful of wine and one mouthful of meat filled with oil.

Qiao Xi's gaze fell onto his stomach which was resting against the table. With a slightly larger movement, she moved the table to her side. She pursed her lips helplessly and took out the phone that was shaking in her bag.

"Sorry, I'm on the phone."
