Chapter 61: Lele's Secret Date

  This chapter contains 1,000 more words about Niu Dasheng and Shi Bi Jia.

  Lele couldn't believe it was true. Could Jingyang really go on a trip with her without any ulterior motives? Did he really not have anything for her to do?

  Jing Yang took a glance at her, and she immediately grabbed the hem of her clothes. What was she going to do? This was downtown, don't be reckless, she could shout for help.

  Jing Yang walked into a store with a smile on his face, and the owner came up to him with surprise, "Boss Jing!"

  "Hmm!"

  "Remember, pick up your skirt."

  "I don't wear skirts!"

  "Why?"

  "It's really inconvenient sometimes." Lele said in a low voice, she always walked quickly, racing against time, and wearing a skirt would be inconvenient.

  Jingyang suppressed a smile, studying was not difficult for her, it seemed that this skirt-wearing person was indeed her arch-nemesis.

  "But I think you look really good in a skirt." Jingyang said with a smile, he knew Lele was like that, if she was forced to wear a skirt, he didn't know how she would react, but when he said this, he saw Lele's face turn red and nod slightly.

  But in his eyes, this girl was unique no matter what she wore. He leaned down to her blushing face and whispered: "Don't wear pants for all four seasons."

  Lele's face suddenly had two more clouds of fire, what kind of occasion is this, and there are other people watching, how can he be so shameless, how can he say such dirty words?!

  Jing Yang looked at her awkward expression and knew what she was thinking, clearing his throat he said: "I mean you can't wear pants, only skirts."

  "Cough, cough..." An Lele spat out a mouthful of saliva that had accumulated in her throat, glared at him for a moment, and then turned to the female store clerk standing beside her and said: "Trouble bringing over two of your store's most expensive dresses." Then she looked at Jingyang with satisfaction, Jingyang enjoying what he called revenge, smiled and told the clerk: "Bring S-numbered ones."

  Lele's face turned red, how did he even know her size? It seems that he really has seen many people and must have brought many girls here before. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so familiar with the place. It seems that she had indeed become one of his countless women.

  Le Le felt more and more depressed as she thought about it, but she didn't know this was jealousy.

  Jingyang looked at Lele, who was standing in front of her wearing a fluffy skirt, and really thought she was lovely. If only she could turn her into Thumbelina and put her in her pocket, so she could carry her around with her all the time. Jingyang also ridiculed her own selfish thoughts.

  Just tried on the clothes, Lele's phone rang, Jingyang took it over and looked at who was calling first, Lele pouted in protest. But the protest was ineffective. Jingyang thought it was her Qihang senior at first. But then she relaxed, because the screen of her mobile phone showed "Mom", Jingyang handed it over to her with a peace of mind.

  Lele's heart skipped a beat. Her mom would never call her during class or work hours unless it was an emergency. She quickly picked up the phone.

  "Mom, what's wrong?"

  "It's okay."

  "It's nothing, you scared me with your phone call?"

  "Hehe...... I have something to discuss with you!" Mom was kind and gentle.

  Lele felt vaguely that something big was going to happen, Mom usually followed the old Buddha's orders, but today she actually used the word "negotiate", what is mom up to?

  "Mom, speak directly! Don't use psychological tactics!"

  "It's what I told you, your auntie told you about that blind date... they want to meet in person..." Her mom continued talking, but LeLe felt like she had been struck by thunder. She never thought her lifelong matter would be solved through a blind date.

  As soon as she saw JingYang staring at her, she smiled awkwardly and quickly listened to the phone call outside the store. If he heard this, she'd be done for. He wouldn't let her off easy, not even giving her a comfortable life.

  "Mom, I'm telling you, I don't want to go on a blind date. Let Auntie handle it herself, I'm busy."

  "Cough, you kid, your aunt has introduced you to the best resources at her disposal, and you're really going to hurt your aunt's feelings like this."

  "I'd rather not see him anyway."

  "No way, you have to go. And your aunt said so too. They've been asking to meet in person all along. If you don't go, they'll think your aunt is a scammer!" Mom wouldn't let up.

  "Oh no, who let Little Auntie casually agree with others." Lele said angrily.

  "It's all for your own good. One girl marries into a family and brings honor to a hundred families, it's a good thing. Don't waste your youth and end up unable to get married!" Mother said.

  Heavens are thundering and blood is boiling in a basin, is this really her mother? How can she utter such vicious words.

  "I'm not going anyway!"

  "Alright, come to the nursing home and we'll talk." Mom said before hanging up the phone.

  Lele sighed heavily as she stared at her phone, oh heavens, oh earth, what was she supposed to do?

  Jingyang walked over and startled her, "What's wrong?"

  "It's nothing." Lele nervously didn't dare to look into his eyes.

  Jingyang asked her if she could believe that "nothing was wrong?" Although it was a question for her, she was timid and thought of confessing the truth. "My mom told me to go to a sanatorium."

  "What's going on? Speak!"

  "Long... miss me."

  Lè Lè's scolding of Jǐng Yáng had never been effective, and she almost fell for it this time, scared to the point where her forehead was covered in a layer of dense sweat.

  "Alright, get in, I'll take you there!" Jingyang said with a smile.

  Lè Lè had just stepped onto the bus when Jing Yang said: "Wait a minute, come in!"

  Le Le didn't understand what was going on and followed him into the store.

  Jingyang handed her the skirt and said: "Go up and change into this skirt."

  "Huh?"

  "Hurry up!"

  Lele looked at the skirt in her hand, suddenly feeling a little guilty towards Jingyang. She shouldn't have lied to him, but thinking of his angry face, she chose to tell lies instead.

  Jing Yang watched her walk down the stairs, that white dress was really tailored for her, but Le Le walked with a nervous heart, because the pair of white high-heeled sandals on her feet made her feel very high, very thin and very dizzy.

  Looking at his uneasy appearance, Jingyang snapped her fingers and said: "Really beautiful, what if she was kidnapped?"

  An Le is even more embarrassed.

  The more she saw Jingyang being good to her, the more guilty she felt, and the guiltier she felt, the more she wanted to quickly escape from his side.

  Jing Yang saw that she didn't say a word, started the car and drove forward. However, he didn't take her directly to the sanatorium, but instead went for afternoon tea. He took a look at the time, thinking she must be starving by now. He certainly didn't want her to starve.

  Savoring the delicious pastries and sipping the rich coffee, An Le felt extremely comfortable. The feeling of being full was great. Looking at Jing Yang's smile, she felt surrounded by a sense of happiness. But the more real this happiness was, the more guilty she felt. How could she bear to deceive him?

  "What's wrong, isn't it delicious?" Jingyang saw that she didn't have the same look of satisfaction as before when she was full. He looked at her anxiously.

  "No! No! I was thinking of going to a sanatorium!" Lele didn't dare look him straight in the eye.

  Arriving at the sanatorium, Lele got off the car and wanted to run, but her high heels were not suitable for running. She stumbled once, but still managed to steady herself, awkwardly turning her head to look at Jingyang, who said "I'll send you up!"

  "No!"

  Jing Yang nodded, released her arm, and watched as she carefully walked upstairs. Le Le waited until Jing Yang's car drove away before feeling at ease going up the stairs. As soon as she entered the room, she saw her stylish aunt sitting there chatting with her mom. Upon seeing Le Le come in, she excitedly got up, circled around Le Le once, and said with a smile: "It's only been a few days since I last saw you, but Le Le, you look even more beautiful!"

  Lele awkwardly walked over and put down her bag, then turned around and said: "Auntie, I don't want to meet the person you mentioned."

  "That's not possible. Little ancestor, I've already promised someone that we'll meet tonight."

  "What's up tonight?"

  "No way, Little Aunt!"

  "No need to be shy, Lele. Just consider it as helping your aunt out. Go and meet her, if you don't like her then just be friends." Aunt said with a smile.

  Lele was taken aback. Right, she could just say she didn't like him and not be moved by that person at all. "Alright, Auntie, I'll go see him, just this once, don't make it a habit."

  "Alright, alright!" Little Aunt said as she exchanged a glance with Mom.

  Lele thought that as long as she rushed back to Jingyang's house tonight, it would be fine. She'd better make a quick decision!

  "Auntie, let's go now!"

  Xiao Yi burst out laughing, "I didn't expect Lele to be so insincere, in such a hurry."

  Mom also smiled. If she could marry her off, it would be a big worry off her mind. Mom had thought she would have to worry about her job, but unexpectedly, finding a job was so smooth for her.

  "Mom, I'm leaving first, call me if there's anything, but it can't be about blind dates."

  Lele and Xiao Yi took a taxi to leave, she always felt that lying to Jingyang made her feel uneasy in her heart, always feeling like there was a pair of eyes secretly watching her. From now on, she must never lie to Jingyang again, this psychological pressure is too great.

  When Lele stood steadily at the door of Shangjia, she was 120% unwilling to go in. Although Shangjia is one of the best places to dine in this city, it didn't leave a good impression on her except when she came with Jingyang.

  "Go on, go in, don't keep them waiting."

  "It's still early!"

  "This kid of yours, he's been on the phone saying he's in trouble, hurry up and come with me." Lele was dragged upstairs by her aunt.

  When the little aunt finally let go of her arm in front of a tall, slender man with fair skin and gold-rimmed glasses whose eyes were smiling behind them, she tried to calm herself down and smiled awkwardly.

  "Le Le, this is Dr. Liu from the ENT department of our Asia No. 1 Hospital, and Dr. Liu, this is my niece, An Le Le, who is currently working as an assistant manager at Far Yang Group. You young people chat, I've made a spa appointment with friends."

  Xiao Yi left, and Le Le felt even more embarrassed. She looked around nervously, not seeing Jing Yang's figure anywhere. She was relieved, thinking that she wasn't always so unlucky as to be caught by Jing Yang. Suddenly, she could understand the feelings of those women who secretly met other men behind their husbands' backs.

  "Miss An, who are you looking for?"

  "Ah, no, no... I was just looking at the surroundings, the environment here is quite good." Lele hurriedly lied, now she felt that she had really become a master of lies. Today, she had lied to her mother, her aunt, and Jing, and now she still had to lie to this Dr. Liu, it was exhausting!

  "Oh!"

  "Just call me An Le Le."

  "Oh, I'll just call you Lele then!"

  "Fine!" Lele thought it didn't matter what she said, anyway they would all go their separate ways after this meal was over. "Actually, I don't like blind dates, my mom and aunt forced me to come, I'm not looking for a boyfriend right now, I just graduated from college a few days ago, I want to focus on work first."

  "You said it so well, I think the same way too. It's all because of family pressure that we're here for a blind date. Among the girls I've met, to be honest with you, there are many who can line up from here to the first floor, but girls like you with such a strong sense of career ambition are really rare!" Dr. Liu said with a smile as he looked at her.

  Lè Lè continued: "Actually I don't want to work, my working is temporary too. I still want to take the postgraduate entrance exam and continue my studies."

  "Hmm, a girl with such ambition is really rare." Dr. Liu's words made Lele uncomfortable, wasn't she clear enough? Why was he being like this?

  "Le Le, before I saw you, I had already imagined what you would look like in my mind. I thought a girl who loves reading should be a certain way. When I first saw you, I was taken aback. You looked just like the image I had in mind - wearing a white dress with long hair down to your shoulders... it's really you." Dr. Liu said happily.

  As soon as Lele heard the words "white chiffon dress", she was no longer calm. This dress was bought by Jingyang for her, but she was 200% sure that Jingyang did not buy this white dress for her to wear on a blind date. A sense of guilt towards Jingyang arose in her heart.

  "Lelai, I like watching girls wear white dresses..."

  Lè Lè was secretly lamenting in her heart, it turned out that this doctor was a "white skirt control", Jing's evil demon also liked her wearing white skirts. Is it that there are more "white skirt controls" this year? She was sweating profusely and regretted wearing the white skirt.

  "Don't you have anything to say to me?" Dr. Liu asked her.

  Liu Le quickly took the opportunity and said: "Doctor Liu, I think we can just be friends, I don't want to talk about romance."

  "Good, I think so too. The girls I've met before are always curious about my career and ask me this and that, or they talk to me about marriage, which is so common and I don't like it. You're really different from the others, I think we'll become good friends."

  Lele let out a sigh of relief, things were developing just as she had hoped, and she could finally hand over to her aunt.

  Lele looked around again, everything was normal, and she felt relieved.

  Suddenly her shoulder was lightly patted, she jumped in fright, hastily got up, turned her head to look, it wasn't someone else but Qihang, "Senior, what are you doing here?"

  "I was having dinner with some friends and saw someone who looked like you, so I came over to take a look."

  "Oh, I'm Liu Zhun, nice to meet you."

  "Dr. Liu, this is my senior fellow student."

  After shaking hands with Liu Zhun, he looked at Lele and asked in a low voice: "Are you on a blind date?"

  Lele took a deep breath in reverse, as if the words "blind date" were written on her face, and it suddenly turned red.
