Chapter 2: The Perfect Blind Date (2)
I am waiting for Sister Yangyang to arrive, it hasn't started yet
Meiyang smiled, and her fondness for Wang You increased a few more points. She waved her hand and was about to call the waiter to order something.
Meiyang was taken aback, struggling to keep up with the train of thought. After all this time spent going in circles, is it really just to go eat wontons
Sister Yangyang, it's almost noon, let's go eat. The tea house is expensive and we won't be full! Wang You was busy pulling Meiyang's hand, naturally stopping her.
Why? The corners of Ye Ran's mouth curled into a sly smile
I will take you there!" Wang Youxian glanced at Meiyang, then looked at Yeran to seek his opinion
Upon hearing this, Ye Ran felt as if a crow had flown over her head. She exchanged a glance with Mei Yang. It was evident that Mei Yang was also deeply affected by Wang Youlei; she nodded at Ye Ran with a face full of indignation and sorrow
"Ranran, are you in a hurry?" Meiyang asked immediately.
Wang You walked over with a plate of fried rice, an empty bowl, and a bowl of wontons, casually placing them on the table. "Sister Yangyang, you should eat the wontons!" Wang You said as he pushed the bowl of wontons in front of Meiyang.
Meiyang and Yeran have completely lost the desire to say anything to Wang You, utterly stunned by the situation
After hearing this, Meiyang quickly took out her phone from her bag and dialed a number, her expression completely indicating that she was ready to confront someone... Yiran subtly took a step back, silently repeating to herself: I do not know this woman, I do not know...
Sister Yangyang, look, I have filled your bowl with soup and even added some noodles in it! Wang Youzhan proudly presented his offering to Meiyang
Ye Ran looked at Mei Yang's startled expression and said with a sly smile: "Yang Yang, wasting food is shameful. Eat the wontons on the table for me! Otherwise, I will look down on you!"
Do you think I want to? Knowing that he is such a person, I wouldn't care about him at all! Your phone is ringing!" Meiyang said with a face full of grievance
Oh God, such an extraordinary man, he is simply unparalleled in history, with no predecessors or successors. Ye Ran touched his nose and finally couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Jiang Hao once again watched as Ye Ran's figure receded from his sight, the smile at the corner of his mouth becoming increasingly bright.
I will take you to the bus station," Wang You said in a flattering manner
Before Mei Yang had a chance to say "good", she saw Wang You holding her bowl, and in one go, he drank more than half a bowl of the soup from the wontons, not minding the heat.
Ye Ran did not speak, but merely gestured with his lips towards the direction in which Wang You was walking.
"No eggs, what nonsense!" Mei Yang pushed Ye Ran away with irritation, scolding angrily, "You idiot, aren't you usually quite clever? You don't even realize when you're being bullied. If I don't stand up for you, are you just going to wait for that **** man to speak ill of you first?"
Two strokes? Why?
Please wait, I will pack these up
Ye Ran widened her eyes in disbelief as she looked at Ling Shan, thinking to herself: this extraordinary nouveau riche must have come from another planet, otherwise, how could I not understand what he is saying
The pair of eyes behind Wang You's glasses clearly flashed with a glimmer of light, and he hurriedly took the money, "That's enough, enough, I will go place the order"
Meiyang gently pulled Yeran to sit down, quietly pinching her, the implication being for her to be quiet. Then she glanced at the table, which only had a cup of plain water, and couldn't help but look towards Wang You, "Haven't you ordered anything yet?" How can a blind date succeed with just a glance? Naturally, one must eat and chat to cultivate feelings.
Ling Shan looked at Ye Ran, who remained unmoved, and his face showed even more anger. He slammed the table in frustration and said, "Miss Ye, your behavior is completely mocking me! I demand that you compensate me for my mental distress!"
Meiyang was quite startled, incredulously staring at Yaran, "Tell you? Why?"
Ye Ran's plate of fried rice was once again promptly served in front of Wang You. As Wang You scooped up the rice, he mumbled indistinctly to Ye Ran and Mei Yang, "You girls waste food; you should know that every grain is hard-earned!"
I am very busy and do not have that much time to spend together" Ling Shan said with a look of regret
Miss Ye, you will receive a letter from my lawyer! Goodbye. " Ling Shan abruptly opened the door to the private room, dropped this remark, and strode out.
Jiang Hao had not yet had the chance to ask Ye Ran for her name when Mei Yang, in a state of surprise, pulled Ye Ran over and scrutinized her from head to toe. She exclaimed, "That was close, thankfully she didn't fall. Ran Ran, let's go!"
At this moment, Meiyang and Wang You have started a conversation and are exchanging pleasantries. Nightran's mind recalls what Meiyang had told her earlier: "Wang You, a local, twenty-eight years old, a CNC engineer, under single conditions, has a high compatibility index with you."
"Alright, let's go eat!" Meiyang said with a smile, pulling Yeran along.
Yeran's heels were sore from the friction, but due to Meiyang's imposing presence, she dared not voice her grievances, trailing behind them like a dutiful wife. After walking such a long distance, Wang Youcai finally asked what they wanted to eat, which seemed rather slow on the uptake!
It is best that you do not know him; if you do, keep your distance from that person!" Meiyang said to Yeran with a serious expression.
Ye Ran lowered her head, pretending to be shy, "Well, then I will take my leave."
You can ask Ranran! At this moment, Meiyang still does not forget to create an opportunity for Yiran to chat with Wangyou
No need, it is very convenient to take a taxi here! Ye Ran shook his head, declining his kind offer
I am not hungry right now and do not want to eat. Ye Ran has also lost her appetite due to Wang You.
Meiyang suppressed his anger and said awkwardly: "Well, this man seems quite down-to-earth and capable of living a good life"
Ye Ran honestly recounted every word that Ling Shan had said to Mei Yang, and after finishing, he did not forget to blink his innocent big eyes pitifully, lamenting: "Today, this matter cannot be blamed on me. I have tried very hard, very hard to communicate with him, but he is truly too extraordinary, I cannot bear it."
"Yaran, if you don't want to die, you better behave well later, otherwise, the consequences..." Meiyang wore a chilling smile on her face, but the moment she pushed open the door to the tea room, it suddenly transformed into an extraordinarily radiant smile. This woman, her ability to change her expression is truly remarkable!
"Ranran, do you know that man from earlier?" Meiyang asked as soon as she left the café
As they exited the store, Meiyang and Yiran quickly turned into another street. Once they were certain that Wang You would not come looking for them, Meiyang comforted Yiran, saying: "Yiran, don't be sad, it's alright. There are plenty of men out there, the next one will definitely be better!"
Meiyang was so astonished that her mouth formed an O shape, and the half wonton she had just put in her mouth fell onto the table.
Ye Ran glanced at the few strands of noodles floating in the bowl filled with clear soup, unable to suppress a smile as she covered her mouth and urged Mei Yang, "Sister Yang Yang, please eat quickly"
Meiyang was in an agitated state, completely ignoring everything around him, continuing to shout at a high volume: "If he really has a mental issue, then he should go see a doctor, what the hell is he doing trying to get close to me!" After finishing his outburst, he hung up the phone, entirely disregarding the curious glances of others in the café.
Meiyang held a spoon and scooped up a wonton. Just as she bit into half of it, the entire bowl of wontons was snatched away by Wang You. Wang You was eating too hastily and choked. After finally catching his breath, he looked at Meiyang with a serious expression and said: "Sister Yangyang, I choked, may I borrow some soup to drink..."
Unexpectedly, there was no pain; Ye Ran fell solidly into a broad chest, and a cool scent of soap wafted into her lungs through her nostrils. Turning her head, Ye Ran was met with a gentle smile.
Because that man is clearly unreliable, your main goal now is to successfully find a match during the blind date later, and to get married before the New Year, to avoid becoming an advanced maternal age mother in the future, Mei Yang said with a serious expression
Sister, please do not introduce me to such extraordinary men next time! My fragile heart cannot withstand multiple blows in a single day
Wang Youlian reluctantly set down the spoon and reached out her hand towards Ye Ran. Ye Ran hurriedly crouched down, pretending to adjust her high heels, thus avoiding a handshake with Wang You.
Meiyang curled her lips and summarized, "In fact, when it comes to living life, one should look for such a man. Just think about it, a man who is so stingy and unwilling to spend money will not be the type to splurge on extravagant outings after marriage."
Upon hearing the reflections of Ye Ran and Mei Yang, Wang You said with satisfaction: "However, Ran Ran, you can rest assured that once you start associating with me, I will definitely keep an eye on you and ensure that you do not have the opportunity to waste."
Ah, are you going to the company on Sunday?" Wang You raised his head from the bowl of wontons, chewing the wontons and asking indistinctly.
Ye Ran pretended to check the time by raising his hand to look at his watch
He... he..." Mei Yang looked at Wang You's back as he joyfully rushed to place an order, and the good impression she had of him instantly vanished, leaving her so angry that she could not even finish her words while pointing at Wang You's back
"How was Mr. Ling just now?" Meiyang nudged Yeran's arm with her elbow
Ling Shan felt his face flush with embarrassment upon hearing Ye Ran's gentle rejection. He angrily shot Ye Ran a disdainful glance and said, "It would have been better if you had said earlier that you are not interested in me. Why waste my time? Waiting for you for so long, how many meetings could I have held, how many contracts could I have signed, and how much money could I have made?"
Indeed, waste is shameful, and we have brought shame upon ourselves. Ye Ran and Mei Yang nodded in agreement simultaneously
Meiyang made a vomiting gesture and quietly asked, "Mina?"
Over there, someone replied something, and Mei Yang's anger surged up, her emotions becoming even more agitated. She shouted mercilessly: "With such a short stature, a round face, a big belly, and a bald head, how can you still have the audacity to introduce him? I won't even mention how ugly he is; his character is even worse. Not only did he fail at blind dating, but he also had the nerve to send a lawyer's letter to accuse my friend of making fun of him, wasting his time. There must be something wrong with his mentality!" I won't even mention how ugly he is; his character is even worse. Not only did he fail at blind dating, but he also had the nerve to send a lawyer's letter to accuse my friend of making fun of him, wasting his time. There must be something wrong with his mentality!
Ye Ran let out an "oh" and picked up the bowl of rice, just as she was about to eat, her hand was firmly pressed down by Wang You. He said earnestly, "Ran Ran, I know that girls generally have a small appetite, and you definitely won't be able to finish such a large plate of rice, so I will help you take care of it!"
I also eat fried rice with eggs
Yes, I need to hurry back to the company to handle some matters
Ye Ran and Mei Yang exchanged glances, once again caught off guard by Wang Youlei
"Ranran, how can you take a taxi? It's such a waste of money. Don't you know that taking the bus here is very convenient? Ranran, you can't live your life like this." Wang You's words successfully froze Yiran's action of picking up her bag in a dramatic manner
"Forget it, I can't afford to accept it either," Mei Yang muttered, then let out a long sigh
Then let's go eat wontons! Wang You decisively concluded.
Ye Ran was momentarily stunned by Ling Shan's righteous shout, unsure of how to respond.
Meiyang's mouth twitched slightly as he glared at Yeran, "Don't give me that smirk. If you mess up the blind date again later, I will hold you accountable for both matters!"
Then, you can go back to work first. When you have time, we can have a good chat.
Ye Ran forced a smile at Wang You, quietly pinching Mei Yang, and using a secret language that only Mei Yang could understand, said: "I don't like this type, although he is of decent height, has quite a proper appearance, and looks quite refined in glasses, his taste in clothing is really quite shocking, isn't it?"
Meiyang glared at Yaran with annoyance and said, "You silly girl, how can you still be laughing at a time like this! Is it a joke? Can jokes fill your stomach? Can they help you succeed in blind dates? This is not a circus for you to watch clowns."
Ye Ran left with the support of Mei Yang, and as she passed by Jiang Hao, she smiled and nodded at him
"Ranran, what do you want to eat?" Wang You, on the other hand, was quite receptive and casually responded.
Nightran felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, overwhelmed by a fainting impulse. Meiyang could no longer maintain her insincere smile, disregarding Wang You, who was waving for the waiter to prepare a takeout, and directly took the bag, pulling Nightran out of the wonton shop.
Ye Ran smiled wryly and shook his head at Mei Yang; at this moment, silence spoke louder than words
As Ling Shan opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to say something more, Ye Ran quickly interjected, gently ushering him out: "Mr. Ling, your time is so precious, you should go and attend to your matters first. It would not be good to delay important affairs! Let us discuss our matters later."
As Ye Ran entered, he was taken aback by his blind date, who was dressed in a floral shirt, yellow pants, and wearing a bright green tie. His attention was immediately drawn to the red sneakers on his feet, which certainly exuded personality. Wait a minute, what’s with the hole? Half of his toes were actually sticking out. Although shoes that expose the toes are quite trendy this year, do sneakers really come in such a style?
"This is our first meeting, and you are asking if it can be settled directly? That seems a bit frivolous, doesn't it?" Ye Ran said with an awkward smile. If it weren't for the fear that Mei Yang would split her in half, Ye Ran wouldn't have the patience to indulge Ling Shan's hesitations. What kind of marriage fanatic is this, asking if it can be settled on the first meeting? Is this called a blind date? It is clearly someone who, relying on their wealth, wants to casually take a woman home to serve as a baby-making machine.
Sister Yangyang, what do you like to eat
If you like it, I will give it to you for free" Nightran joked with a smile
Ye Ran politely nodded and smiled slightly, "Yes, what a coincidence! Thank you!"
Meiyang silently curled her lips in disdain
"Eat, why aren't you eating?" After Wang Youlang wolfed down a couple of bites of rice, he did not forget to invite Ye Ran and Mei Yang.
After Jiang Hao steadied Ye Ran, he looked at Ye Ran, lightly tugged at the corner of his mouth, raised his eyebrows slightly, and then greeted him amicably: "I didn't expect to run into you again!"
As Mei Yang has become the center of attention in the café, Ye Ran had no choice but to quietly tug at Mei Yang and softly remind her: "Yang Yang, this is a public place, be mindful of your image. Stay calm..."
Meiyang cast a disdainful glance at Yeran
"Dear, what happened?" Ye Ran answered the phone with a gentle and sweet voice
Ye Ran stared in astonishment as Wang You divided two-thirds of the fried rice from the plate into another empty bowl, then pushed the plate in front of Ye Ran and said solemnly: "Wasting is shameful! We must not waste!"
Ye Ran nodded and chuckled, "Actually, he is quite amusing."
Ye Ran shrugged nonchalantly, "I never had any hopes to begin with, so of course I won't be disappointed. Unlike someone who was chatting so passionately, I almost thought a red apricot was about to climb over the wall!"
"Wang You, what are we actually going to eat?" After crossing the zebra crossing twice, walking down three streets, and passing four traffic lights, Mei Yang nonchalantly flicked her high heels beneath her feet, feeling frustrated and muttering to herself: It's such a long way to go for a meal, it would be better to take a taxi.
Wang You naturally sat beside Ye Ran and softly said to Mei Yang, "Sister Yang, I have only credit cards on me and not enough cash. What should I do? It seems that the wonton shop doesn't accept card payments!"
Ye Ran pretended to be pitiful and asked: "Sister Yang Yang, do you still think that he and I have a high compatibility index?"
Ye Ran nodded and casually pressed the speakerphone button, and Mina's voice came through clearly, "Ran Ran, let's go to the bar tonight. I want to introduce you to a handsome guy! You must go, it starts at 10 o'clock sharp!"
As soon as the call was connected, Mei Yang bellowed like a lion from the east, "Cheng Cui, what kind of strange person are you introducing to me as a sister?"
Ye Ran let out a laugh and said, "Yang Yang, have you already seen through this unreliable person?"
Ye Ran suppressed a smile and said seriously to Mei Yang: "He is preparing to sue me!"
Ye Ran watched as Wang You pulled out two credit cards from his colorful clothing. After a moment of surprise, he quickly regained his composure, took out his wallet, and handed Wang You a one-hundred-yuan note, asking, "Is one hundred yuan enough?"
Ye Ran nodded and said "Oh," then casually asked, "What are you eating?"
Ye Ran nodded and then shook his head, scratching the back of his head before saying: "Acquainted? Not really, just happened to run into them twice today"
There is no way, the matter is not yet resolved. Ye Ran offered a helpless smile and said, "How about we stop here for today and talk another day"
Ye Ran only felt goosebumps all over, took a breath and said: "Whatever!"
Thank you! Mei Yang forced a smile.
Ranran, you should eat! This fried rice is very nutritious
What should we do then? Nightran retorted
Sister Yangyang, if you don't like to eat it, I will take care of it for you. Wasting food is shameful; we cannot waste it!" Wang Youbang cheerfully brought Meiyang's bowl of wontons in front of himself
Meiyang's expression was completely petrified, and he was so astonished that his jaw nearly dropped to the ground
As soon as Ye Ran entered the wonton shop, he could no longer hold himself up and sat down in an empty spot by the door. Mei Yang also sat down opposite Ye Ran, lamenting in pain as he continuously rubbed his feet that had been tormented by high heels.
I don't really like eating wontons, so I won't have any more. Meiyang held the spoon but just couldn't bring herself to take a bite, and finally set the spoon down.
Sister Yangyang, I will go and serve you another bowl of soup! After finishing, Wang You casually wiped his mouth.
Ye Ran was wearing high heels that were 8 centimeters tall. Without any mental preparation, she was pushed by Mei Yang and was about to have an intimate encounter with the ground, and it was going to be headfirst. If she fell and suffered a concussion, it would truly be a "tragedy"
If you have no time to spend together, why would you still marry a wife? Just because the girl looks good, to bring her home as a decorative vase? That's truly a sign of a troubled mind! Yet, Ye Ran muttered discontentedly in her heart, while still wearing a gentle smile on her face, nodding in feigned ignorance, "Yes, I understand that Mr. Ling is very busy, so I won't disturb you."
