Chapter 51 – “… Perfect, my son is thirteen too.” (3)

Lin Ping stiffly sat at home all afternoon without doing anything else as she waited to hear the results of her daughter’s first battle.

She looked more nervous than the involved party.

***

The blind date was scheduled at a private club.

Compared to restaurants, cafes, and whatnot, this private, membership-only club was a more stylish meeting place. They would be less likely to be bothered here. In terms of overall conditions and privacy, this was a pretty good place that was popular with wealthy people.

Lin Yiyi only had limited information on the other party. His last name was Lu. He was 35 years old, had a master’s degrees, studied abroad, and had a good family background. He was the archetype of Mr. Perfect.

Before coming here, they had both been given each other’s phone numbers. It was only that they hadn’t seen each other’s faces yet. It was always a bit awkward to call a stranger on the phone, so Lin Yiyi decided to go there at the appointed time and take it from there.

When she arrived at the club, she saw there were only two occupied tables. This was under the precondition of limited number of tables. One table was occupied by two people that seemed to be a couple. They were quietly talking. In addition, there was a man sitting at a table near the window. He was looking at his laptop, and there was a cup of coffee by his hand.

The man looked to be in his thirties. His rolled up sleeves looked like an elaborate packaging for his arms. There was also a blue suit jacket hanging on the chair beside him.

At the moment, he was facing his laptop screen and seemed to be working.

Seeing that this CEO of a multinational company was still working even when he went out, Lin Yiyi understood why his family members would be worried about him getting married.

Lin Yiyi lowered her head to check her watch.

She had arrived eight minutes early.

This Mr. Lu had arrived earlier than her!

Very good, she had confirmed he was her blind date. She approached the man.

At this time, the man had just finished sending an email. At the moment when he picked up the cup of coffee and looked up, he paused.

Without him noticing, a woman was standing in front of him.

“Mr. Lu?”

Lin Yiyi was feeling a bit nervous.

She had walked up to him from the side, so she didn’t have a clear look of his face until now. Now that this man had raised his head, she could see that the silhouette of his face was very beautiful in a refined way.

The top two buttons of his shirt were unbuttoned, and she could clearly see his tanned skin. His skin color help transform his refined appearance into a healthier and tougher one.

Hearing Lin Yiyi’s voice, he raised an eyebrow and aloofly raised his chin.

If Lin Yiyi hadn’t been staring at him the entire time, she wouldn’t have noticed his slight motion of acknowledgement.

After confirming he was her blind date, Lin Yiyi sat down across from him.

“Hi, I’m Lin Yiyi.”

She looked at him expectantly.

Since this was a blind date, he should at least know her name, right?

She had included her last name in her greeting, so he shouldn’t mistake her for someone else.

Unfortunately, this man still hadn’t said anything.

By now, Lin Yiyi was already more or less sure that the other party had been forced to come here by his relatives too. This was the reason why he was looking so indifferent.

It wasn’t surprising. This man had good qualifications. He was outstanding in all aspects…

He looked good too.

Since the other party was uninterested and she had no intention of marrying him, she no longer had any psychological burden in telling him about the information that Lin Ping had concealed.

“It’s like this. You might not be aware, but I’ve already been married once.”

Lin Yiyi straightforwardly said, “I also have two children. My daughter is only six, and my older son is thirteen.”

So…

Did he understand what she meant?

She expectantly looked at him.

However, she only saw the man curving his thin lips into a slight smile. Instantly, his face looked softer.

“… Perfect, my son is thirteen too.”

Lin Yiyi: ???
