Ch.267 Time was magical. (2)

Through the glass window, Chen Junxing glanced at her petite figure. In the end, he decisively drove the car away.

The noises by her ear became further and further away. After Yin Liuyue confirmed that he left, only then did she dare to turn around, lost in thought as she stared at the place where he just stopped his car.

After Chinese New Year, Yin Liyue’s parents started finding blind date candidates for her, eager to get her married.

Before the Lantern Festival, Yin Liuyue saw her first blind date candidate. He was part of the senior management in a company. He was thirty-one years old with a roundish figure. After he saw Yin Liuyue, he bragged about his brilliant accomplishment for dozens of minutes. Then, he started talking to her about buying a house. He talked about the prices of the houses and how if she wanted to marry him, he could immediately buy a house with xx square meters…

Yin Liuyue smiled the entire time. All she was thinking about was how to get out of this situation. She tolerated his speech for an hour before her phone rang. She picked it up and her expression changed completely. “How did this happen? I’m coming over right away!”

That man wanted to say something when Yin Liuyue grabbed her bag and said, “Sorry, I have an urgent matter. I’m leaving now!” Before he could say anything, she immediately left.

“Hey, what are you looking at?” Liu Ying watched as Chen Junxing glanced downstairs a couple of times while they were eating. Therefore, he inquired.

“Nothing. I just thought I saw someone familiar.”

“Guy or girl?”

“You don’t know them.”

“Oh?” Liu Ying asked meaningfully, “A girl?”

Chen Junxing ignored him. At the same time that he withdrew his gaze, he made a curious guess inside his heart. Yin Liuyue was on a blind date?

Chen Junxing encountered Yin Liuyue in this restaurant again, three weeks later.

The moment he entered, he noticed her existence. She was still at the seat by the window, but her date changed.

The man was slightly better than the one from last time. Of course, just a bit. The one today was a bit taller and skinnier, and he had an ordinary and proper appearance.

Chen Junxing sat behind her. When they were ordering food, he unintentionally heard the tall and skinny man say, “I earn at least 10,000 a month. How about you? How much do you earn a month?”

Yin Liuyue actually responded, “Not much. Just a few thousand.”

“Really? Then that is a bit pitiful. Miss Yin, right? I don’t have that many requirements for my partner. I just want them to be good-looking, tall, and skinny. You fit my requirements. However, it’s best if my partner has properties and cars. You know that it’s very difficult to buy cars and houses in the city for people with poor economic conditions. I don’t require that much. You must know, right? Therefore, Miss Ye, do you have any properties and cars?”

Yin Liuyue slightly smiled. “That’s regretful. I don’t have any cars or properties. Oh right, I got a loan of a few hundred thousands from the bank last week. I still owe the bank a lot of money now!”

That man asked in alarm, “Why did you borrow so much money?”

“To buy bags! There’s a global limited edition that I want. Whenever I’m in a bad mood, I want to buy bags. To women, shopping fixes everything!”

That man looked at her as if he had eaten a fly. He picked up his jacket and hurriedly said, “Miss Ye, I still have some matters to attend, so I’ll have to get going now.”

“Why don’t you wait for the waiter to serve food and leave after eating?”

“It’s fine, it’s fine!”

Yin Liuyue watched him run off quickly and she couldn’t help but laugh. While waiting for food, she called her best friend, Ou Yang. Half-jokingly, “Didn’t you say there are a lot of men in the world? How come I’ve only met strange people since I’ve gone on blind dates?”

Ou Yang lazily responded, “I think you just have high requirements.”

“I don’t have any requirements.” Yin Liuyue argued, “As long as I find them pleasing to the eye.”

“The highest requirement is not having any.” Ou Yang responded, “Stop comparing them to your lover in your dream.”

“I didn’t compare them to him.”

“You know whether or not you did. Also, stop thinking about the impossible. Maybe he already got married and has a family. Stop thinking about him…”

Yin Liuyue slightly sighed. “I really wasn’t thinking of Chen Junxing. I just met him that day and dreamed of him twice. I haven’t thought of him since.”

“Cough, cough!” Chen Junxing who was behind them accidentally choked when he heard that. As he grabbed a napkin to wipe the corner of his lips, he silently said to himself: I’m actually the

lover in her dream?

Yin Liuyue was still talking to Ou Yang about the blind dates. Ou Yang advised her to not be so impatient. After all, she had been single for so many years. It wasn’t that easy to find a suitable partner that quickly.

Yin Liuyue also felt the same. “I think I may as well find a random person on the street and get married to him.”
