Chapter 25

Su Mingyan closed his eyes slightly, his face became ugly, his eyes kept scanning the sentence in the center of the screen back and forth, as if he was not sure what he had seen.

He didn't give up, his fingertips clicked, and he added it again. This time, he specially noted his name in the greeting content.

【I am Su Mingyan.】

Half a second later, the phone screen jumped out with the repeated sentence again—the other party refused your friend request.

Su Ruoyun caught a glimpse of Su Mingyan's ugly face from the corner of her eyes, and subconsciously tilted her head to look at his phone: "What's wrong?"

Su Mingyan cleared his throat, his tone was calm: "Nothing." Then, before Su Ruoyun could see the screen, he calmly pressed the phone to a black screen and put it back in his pocket. A series of actions were smooth and flowing.

Such a shameful thing cannot be known by a second person.

Twenty minutes later, the Maybach stopped in front of the courtyard, and Peng Ran got out of the car to open the door for the two.

Su Ruoyun stuffed the crossbody bag into Su Mingyan's arms, picked up 'Panda' herself, and took the first step.

Su Mingyan fell two steps behind Su Ruoyun. Seeing her walk away, he slowed down unhurriedly, took his phone out of his pants pocket again, and the screen remained on the original screen.

He stared at the other party's avatar and WeChat name for a few times, his eyebrows frowned, and the expression on his face was as if he had been stumped by some major event.

On the dining table, the matter of blind dating was discussed as usual.

Old Lady Su personally scooped a bowl of yam and pork rib soup for her grandson. While the white porcelain bowl was placed by Su Mingyan's hand, she also opened her mouth: "How did the chat go last time?"

Su Mingyan was deep in his ways, his face didn't turn red and his heart didn't beat when he lied. He looked at Old Lady Su calmly, and his thin lips spat out two words: "Average."

Hearing this answer, Old Lady Su sighed.

Just when Su Mingyan and Su Ruoyun thought in unison that the old lady had already noticed, she said: "In front of your biological grandmother, we don't need to be so face-conscious."

Su Mingyan and Su Ruoyun looked at each other, their eyes met in mid-air for a second, and then they looked back at the old lady sitting opposite in unison.

"People said they didn't see eye to eye with you, so you don't need to say it's average here. If this one doesn't work, look at the next one."

Su Ruoyun bit the spoon and popped out a sentence out of thin air: "What is called not seeing eye to eye?"

"It's that the Jiang family girl didn't like your brother, saying that during the chat, the feeling wasn't very good." The old lady's tone was hating iron for not becoming steel, "Maybe... your brother was a piece of wood in his last life."

Su Ruoyun knew everything that had just happened. They didn't add WeChat, so where did the chat come from? Brain waves, stream of consciousness?

Just when her thoughts were wandering, the protagonist on the table suddenly spoke, his tone light: "I think she is quite good, I still want to chat with her again."

"However, she has already entrusted a middleman to refuse." Old Lady Su said.

Old Man Su, who was sitting in the main seat, opened his mouth: "If he likes it, let him go, put down his posture and chase the girl, try it to let him know the final result."

Old Man Su had already spoken, so Old Lady Su naturally wouldn't refute.

"Then chat with people properly, don't just know how to talk about your reports and data all day long..."

Old Lady Su passed on some 'secrets' on how to chat with girls, obviously feeling that her grandson was a stupid piece of wood.

Su Ruoyun was gloating on the side.

Su Mingyan caught a glimpse of the corners of her mouth curling up inadvertently, and said slowly: "Don't laugh, you have it too."

"Ah?"

Su Ruoyun stuck her chopsticks in the bowl. When she turned her head, what she saw was Old Lady Su's kind and amiable smile. She felt inexplicably cold on her back.

Regarding this blind date, Su Ruoyun's resistance extended from the meal to after the meal.

"Architect, I don't want it."

Old Lady Su wore reading glasses, flipped through the ancient books in her hands, and asked unhurriedly: "Why?"

"Often drawing blueprints, running to construction sites, must be a fool." Su Ruoyun bit the lychee in her mouth, making a sound, to express her dissatisfaction.

"That kid from the Chen family is famous for being good at chatting in the circle." Su Mingyan was watching the fun on the side, also flipping through a newspaper, interjecting from time to time, his voice lazy.

Old Lady Su also nodded affirmatively, "Not only is he good at chatting, but his temper is also good, humorous, didn't you say you like this type?"

"You still remember what I said when I was three years old?"

"Okay, your matter next Wednesday is set. I have also asked others. It is said that this kid from the Chen family is twenty-seven or eight, and he hasn't talked about a girlfriend, let alone anyone kept outside."

"At the beginning of the year, when he came to pay a New Year's greeting, I also saw him. He is also a talent, but it's a pity that you had a fever at that time and didn't see him."

Old Lady Su almost made the final decision, "That's it."

Su Ruoyun threw herself into the sofa and let out a heavy "Sigh!"

"Sigh, so annoying!"

Chen Zheyan was also extremely dissatisfied with this blind date arranged by the elders. He was only twenty-seven and a half, where did he need to reach this point.

But the old lady gave a death order. If he didn't go, he wouldn't have to go home in the future, just pack up and leave.

So he dragged a group of friends to the bar to drink, and directly picked up a bottle of whiskey and drank it: "My grandma didn't even ask for my opinion, so she arranged it for me directly. I'm still a child, how could she arrange a blind date for me? Could it be that I'm just a seed for passing on the family line."

The environment in the private room was quiet, the dim yellow light was soft and layered, not like a usual place for fun. Sitting with three or five friends, all of whom were people in the same circle, their feelings about this kind of encounter were only more, not less.

Qi Zhiwen had a cigarette in his mouth, his voice was vague when he spoke, with a teasing meaning: "Aren't you a Beijing master, why did you change to a Beijing child today?"

As soon as this remark came out, it caused a burst of laughter.

Huo Jingcheng's well-defined hand held a glass of brandy, amber color with ice, the cup wall exuded drops of water, leaning lazily against the leather seat back, long legs crossed, listening to this, the corners of his mouth slowly hooked.

"Get out of here!" Chen Zheyan raised his hand and gulped down a mouthful of whiskey, furious.

Qi Zhiwen held the cigarette between his left fingers, flicked the ash to the side casually, with a shallow smile on his face, his voice was indifferent: "Eh, what are you angry about."

"I just can't accept it, why is it so forced..." He complained.

"..."

During the conversation, someone asked the point: "Who is the woman?"

Chen Zheyan stopped drinking, the liquid in the wine bottle swayed back and forth, narrowed his eyes, looked at the lamp on the top at forty-five degrees, the light flashed across his eyes, closed his eyes and thought for a moment, "Seems to be, the daughter of the Su family."

"Su Mingyan's sister."
