46: It's no use kneeling down to lick me

In the barbecue restaurant, Ye Xi felt her stomach rumbling with hunger as she smelled the aroma of Mu Qingge's barbecue.

She glanced at the time; it was already half an hour past the agreed time.

Every time she messaged the other party asking when they would arrive, the reply was always about traffic jams and to wait a little longer.

Mu Qingge, sitting at the next table, also couldn't stand it.

"Is this even a person? Why don't we just eat and go back?"

Mu Qingge walked over and patted Ye Xi's shoulder.

"Alright, then we won't wait. I'm really starving to death."

Ye Xi nodded, also extremely speechless.

Sure enough, blind dates were unreliable.

Just then, her phone suddenly rang again.

As the call connected, a woman's sweet voice came from the phone.

"Hello, I'm here. Where are you? Can you come pick me up?"

"I'm on the second floor. I'll be right down."

Ye Xi stood up, adjusted her clothes, and hurried down to the first floor.

As soon as she reached the entrance, she saw a rather pretty girl waving at her.

The other party wore a white dress, a butterfly hair clip, had big eyes, a high nose bridge, and especially when she smiled sweetly, she was indeed one or two parts charming.

However, her nose bridge and double eyelids seemed a bit unnatural, giving the impression that they had been surgically altered.

"Here, here."

Liu Xiaoqian waved, attracting Ye Xi's attention.

She looked at the dining place and was very satisfied.

She had heard of this popular online celebrity restaurant; it had excellent reviews online and often attracted many influencers to check in. The only downside was that the prices weren't cheap.

"Seeing you, I feel very comfortable."

Ye Xi smiled shyly. Although the compliment was a bit insincere, it was basic politeness.

Before falling out, you're a celestial fairy; after falling out, you're a pig. This was considered common knowledge for blind dates.

"You're also very handsome."

Ye Xi sized up the other party, and Liu Xiaoqian was also sizing her up.

Although this blind date wasn't very tall, upon closer inspection, he had red lips, white teeth, and delicate, fair skin—a complete pretty boy.

Especially his smooth, tender skin, which even with her regular skincare, she seemed unable to match.

"It's not appropriate to chat too much here, let's go to the second floor."

As she spoke, Ye Xi had already noticed a fleeting desire in this woman for him.

Although this woman put on a nonchalant act, her 'tea art' wasn't good enough; a hint of longing in her eyes couldn't be completely concealed.

"I'll listen to you. I'm very sorry for making you wait so long today," Liu Xiaoqian said with a sweet smile.

The two walked up the stairs to the second floor, one after the other.

Half a minute later, a man with a beer belly and a lewd appearance also walked towards the second floor.

He smirked lewdly and said, "I hope you two succeed in your blind date. Cuckolding such a handsome pretty boy gives me even more satisfaction."

...

Arriving on the second floor, Ye Xi pulled out a chair for the other party and made a gesture to invite her to sit.

"Thank you."

Liu Xiaoqian smiled and nodded. She was even more satisfied; besides being a little short at just over 1.7 meters, he seemed to have no other flaws.

They ordered a couple's set meal, which wasn't expensive, only 398.

After sitting down, Ye Xi didn't bother with her and began to eat the barbecue heartily.

What was his attitude towards her? He simply didn't care.

Based on years of intuition, he felt there was something very wrong with this girl. Better to eat early and part ways early.

"Handsome, I heard you're still a student?"

Liu Xiaoqian still had a good impression of Ye Xi.

Since he wasn't very responsive, she decided to take the initiative.

"Yes."

Ye Xi's mouth was full of meat, making his speech a bit unclear.

Liu Xiaoqian was a bit speechless. Before, on blind dates, people would fawn over her. What was going on this time?

"I work at a dog factory."

Of course, she wouldn't tell Ye Xi that she was being kept by her boss.

"That's good. A dog factory is also considered a large shopping enterprise. The benefits are very good, and it has a lot of prospects."

Ye Xi finished his sentence, and the atmosphere suddenly became quiet again.

This made Liu Xiaoqian anxious. Why was blind dating so difficult?

"I heard from the introduction that you're 20, right?" Liu Xiaoqian tried to find another topic.

"That's right."

Ye Xi nodded, glanced at her, and then continued eating.

Seeing this situation, Liu Xiaoqian gritted her teeth in frustration. She wanted to leave immediately, but thinking of his flawless face, she felt she had to endure it.

She had been in the workplace for two years; could she really not win over a college student who was still green?

"Do you like playing games?"

Liu Xiaoqian pondered that she couldn't let the awkwardness continue and decided to find topics that boys liked to discuss.

"Yes, yes."

Upon hearing the word "games," Ye Xi's eyes lit up.

"Perfect, I also like playing games. Do you want to play together tonight?"

Ye Xi looked up at her, then continued, "Sorry, I don't like playing with girls."

Ye Xi sighed inwardly.

Was this woman out of her mind?

Even the dumbest person should be able to tell that he wasn't interested in her. What was the point?

Even if you fawn over me, it's no use.

Seeing Ye Xi about to vomit, Liu Xiaoqian elegantly extended her hand and offered Ye Xi a tissue.

"Is there something wrong with the meat? Why don't we reorder?"

"Big Sister has money. This meal is on me."

Liu Xiaoqian said, about to touch Ye Xi, but Ye Xi nimbly dodged her.

"I just thought of something funny while eating. It's nothing."

Ye Xi waved his hand and quickly spat the meat into a nearby trash can.

"Alright then, as long as you're okay."

Liu Xiaoqian smiled elegantly, her two dimples giving her an extremely sweet feeling.

Just then, Liu Xiaoqian felt her phone vibrate.

She looked down; it was a message from that fat pig boss.

【Ask him out.】

Liu Xiaoqian felt a bit confused. Was this fat pig sick?

【You bring him out, take him to a secluded place for a date, and I'll arrange for people to rob you two.】

Not far from them, the pot-bellied Tao Boss stared at them lewdly.

He kept feeling that Liu Xiaoqian's blind date was a woman, and an exquisite one at that.

Even if he was a man, with such delicate, fair skin, there were people in his circle who liked that kind.

Liu Xiaoqian secretly replied, 【What are you trying to do?】

【Qianqian, I'm just helping you check your date's character. What if you get robbed and he doesn't react at all, or even kneels down? Are you really willing to marry such a man?】

Liu Xiaoqian: 【But this is someone introduced by relatives and friends. How can he endure such a scare from you?】

Tao Boss replied, 【Both of you will be robbed. What does it matter if relatives know? You're also a victim, it's very safe.】

【Do you still want a promotion and a raise? If you do, then be obedient. If this works out, you'll be well rewarded. Besides, he's just a man, and we're not doing anything to him.】
