Chapter 7: Caught on a Blind Date

The blind date was scheduled to take place at Xiangmi Cafe.

Lu Mingyue went in and waited for a few minutes before she saw her blind date. Although he was a returnee from overseas, he was a middle-aged man wearing a neat suit and had no temperament.

The middle-aged overseas returnee who came for the blind date said arrogantly: "Sorry I'm late."

Lu Mingyue responded politely: "It's okay, I arrived early."

The returnee first looked at Lu Mingyue, and then introduced himself: "My name is Zhou Jiayou, I believe your cousin has already told you about my situation."

"Jiayuan mentioned to me that you are a bit of a money-worshiper. But I want to make it clear to you in advance that my salary will not be given to you for safekeeping. After we get married, you quit your job and stay at home to take care of your husband and children and my parents' daily life. I will give you 8,000 yuan in pocket money every month."

The overseas returnee was in his early thirties, half of his head was bald. In fact, Lu Mingyue didn't have high requirements for appearance, but the other party was so ordinary and greasy that Mingyue felt a little nauseous.

I knew Lu Jiayuan had no good intentions.

But her uncle just called and repeatedly reminded her to get along well with others, so she could only try her best to swallow the classic Chinese quintessence.

The returnee continued, "I heard from Jiayuan that you are an orphan and that her family adopted you. Your uncle's family means well, but you should be independent and move out when you grow up. If you really can't find a place to live, you can move to my house, which will be a good opportunity for you to adapt to the post-marriage environment. This will count as a pre-marriage observation period. Of course, if I feel that you are not suitable during the observation period, I can ask you to leave at any time."

Lu Mingyue really wanted to pour a cup of cold coffee on this "Mr. Turtle" on the spot to sober him up.

She repeatedly told herself that her uncle had a bad heart and she could bear it!

After enduring for ten minutes, Mingyue couldn't bear it anymore and used the excuse of going to the bathroom to ask Zhao Xiaohe to come to the rescue.

After returning, Mr. Turtle looked at her with a little dissatisfaction and said reluctantly: "Although you have many shortcomings, you are still decent looking. My parents should be satisfied. After we get married, I will slowly teach you the rules. By the way, you can wash clothes and cook, right? These are the basic requirements for being my wife..."

After listening to Mr. Turtle chattering for dozens of seconds, Lu Mingyue finally received a call from Zhao Xiaohe.

Mingyue answered the phone a few seconds later and asked in a pretended angry tone, "What? Overtime? There's a problem with the project, and I have to go back and revise it right away?"

Mingyue's tone was exaggerated. After the call, she apologized to "Mr. Turtle" and said, "Something urgent happened on a project, and I have to go back to the company." "Mr. Turtle" frowned and said, "You went on a blind date with me, and you actually have to go back to work overtime?"

Lu Mingyue pretended to be helpless and spread her hands: "There is nothing I can do. Capitalists are all blood suckers."

Mr. Turtle's sense of superiority would not allow him to be stood up, and he sneered, "If you dare to go back now, there will be no blind date to discuss."

Mingyue pretended to be innocent and asked, "Mr. Haigui, this project is worth hundreds of millions of dollars. I can buy a big villa with the profits. But if I mess it up, I might even lose my job. Will you compensate me with a big villa?"

Such obvious irony made Mr. Turtle feel embarrassed and he walked away angrily.

"Jiayuan is absolutely right, you are a girl who only loves money!"

Mingyue was not angry at all, she drank her coffee happily, and waited until Mr. Turtle was far away before she stood up and walked out. However, she spotted her boss sitting near the door.

Yan Chengzhi was wearing that neat, high-end suit, and he was still dazzling as he sat in a small corner.

She was a little surprised, "Boss Yan?"

Yan Chengzhi said "hmm" with a unhappy expression.

Seeing Yan Chengzhi's face full of reluctance and the beautiful woman opposite him with a shy face, Mingyue's mind suddenly lit up and she asked in a low voice: "Mr. Yan, are you here for a blind date too?" Or were you forced to do this?

But why would a family like the president choose such a simple place?

Yan Chengzhi nodded calmly, then stood up, "You want to go back to the company?"

Lu Mingyue guessed that the president had heard what she had just said, and nodded obediently, "Yes, President Yan."

"It just so happens that I also received a call from Xiao Jin. I'll go back with you to deal with it." Mingyue: ...

Boss, I was pretending when I told you to work overtime. Are you pretending too?

But if you don’t want to go on a blind date, who dares to force you?

But she didn't dare ask anything and just followed her boss obediently.
