Chapter 820: Chapter 808: Blind Date

Le Zhengsheng stayed home for a few days to take care of Little Mantou and didn’t go out.

Once Little Mantou’s health recovered, he let the little guy return to school.

With Little Mantou back in school, Le Zhengsheng was alone again. Wondering what Gu Xiaoning was up to? What shift was she working today?

That girl works hard enough for her family.

Driving aimlessly, he unintentionally stopped in front of the hospital.

Initially, he didn’t plan anything, as he had already decided to give up... Ending an ambiguous feeling that hasn’t even started won’t hurt too much.

The hospital entrance was bustling with people coming and going.

Le Zhengsheng didn’t expect to see Gu Xiaoning... and paused for a moment.

Gu Xiaoning, wearing casual clothes and carrying a shoulder bag, came out from inside, turned a corner, and walked toward the bus stop. Le Zhengsheng checked his watch—off work at this hour? Then she worked the night shift last night. Seeing her in such a hurry, likely for her family again!

Le Zhengsheng silently started the car, slowly following her.

Yet, Gu Xiaoning didn’t board the bus.

Instead, she passed the bus stop and continued walking forward.

Hmm? Le Zhengsheng frowned, where is this girl going? Not going home to rest after a night shift?

The path ahead led to the pedestrian street, where cars couldn’t proceed. Le Zhengsheng hurriedly parked his car on the roadside and got out to follow Gu Xiaoning quickly.

Gu Xiaoning stopped in front of a coffee shop on the pedestrian street, looked up at the sign, and muttered it twice... then pushed the door open and went inside.

"Tsk." Seeing her silly act made Le Zhengsheng laugh, really, does she have to read the sign?

Wait... Le Zhengsheng realized something was off, why did Gu Xiaoning go into a coffee shop?

The Gu Family is dirt poor, would she go to a coffee shop, a place where money is wasted? And especially after a night shift?

Very wrong... extremely wrong...

Le Zhengsheng frowned and quickened his pace, following her into the coffee shop as well.

...

In the hall’s booth, Gu Xiaoning found a place to sit.

There was already someone seated... a man.

Gu Xiaoning stood before the man with her bag, forcing out a smile...

Why force? Because this man was... really unattractive.

Though he was sitting, Gu Xiaoning glanced at the length of his legs, wondering if he’d be taller than her when standing? At 167 centimeters, she was considered tall among girls, but for a man... is this even considered a height?

And this man’s facial features were too scattered, it seemed as if he had no eyebrows.

And furthermore, what kind of hairstyle is this? How much gel did he use before stepping out?

Gu Xiaoning’s expression stiffened, reminding herself inwardly not to judge by appearances, as it’s shallow—perhaps he has a good personality?

"Hello." Gu Xiaoning tugged at her lip, nodding towards the man.

"Ah!" The man was startled and quickly stood up.

Gu Xiaoning’s heart sank, this man is actually shorter than her even with high-heeled shoes!

In contrast to Gu Xiaoning’s reaction, the man’s eyes brightened upon seeing her...

Undoubtedly, Gu Xiaoning was pretty.

Even a man like Le Zhengsheng, who was no less attractive than women, thought she was beautiful, showing that... Gu Xiaoning truly was as beautiful as a flower.

"Hello." The man’s amazement was completely unhidden, extending his hand, "Miss Gu."

"Yes." Gu Xiaoning smiled and pulled out a chair to sit down.

The man was excited, gesturing animatedly, his expression lively.

"Miss Gu, what would you like to eat? The cakes here are good, feel free to order!"

Gu Xiaoning awkwardly smiled, "Okay."

Although she had an urge to leave, she had to hold back.

... because she was here for a blind date.

Before coming, she didn’t know much about the man’s situation. The clearest thing was the man’s family financial condition, which was fairly well-off in this city... owning chain supermarkets, as well as many shops and rental properties.

Honestly, Gu Xiaoning was here for the money.

She wasn’t a vain woman, but in life, one inevitably has to bow to reality sometimes.

With Le Zhengsheng, there’s no future.

The romance she never started had already been declared ’dead’ by Le Zhengsheng...

Therefore, she had no reason to continue accepting his money, even though he wasn’t short on money. But Gu Xiaoning didn’t want to owe him.

This blind date was arranged by a neighbor.

At first, Gu Xiaoning didn’t want to participate until the man offered... to accept her brother and live with Little Zheng.

Because of this, Gu Xiaoning agreed.

Her brother Little Zheng would rely on her for the rest of his life...

"Sir, Miss, please enjoy."

The waiter delivered the food, and Gu Xiaoning smiled, "Thank you."

"Phew! Whoosh..."

Suddenly, a sound came from across the table.

Gu Xiaoning, shocked, looked over abruptly.

The man was actually blowing on his coffee! And while drinking, made such a slurping noise!

"..." Gu Xiaoning sighed silently and closed her eyes in embarrassment.

Though the Gu Family was down and out, she had received a good education since childhood; her mother hadn’t missed teaching her any table etiquette.

This man seemed like a nouveau riche in every way!

The man was entirely oblivious, raising his head, "Miss Gu, aren’t you eating? Isn’t it good?"

"Uh..." Gu Xiaoning remained silent.

The man’s fork suddenly reached over, "Is it too big a piece? Let me cut it for you!"

"No..." Gu Xiaoning didn’t have time to speak.

The man’s fork had already dropped, and his hand brilliantly carved up her cake.

Afterward, he even licked the fork, "Ha ha, it’s ready, go ahead and eat!"

Gu Xiaoning was stunned, looking at the cake in pieces before her... How was she supposed to eat it? All covered with his saliva, wasn’t it?

Gu Xiaoning was nearly driven mad, Sir, we’re really not that close!

She was already on the brink of losing it when the man began speaking.

"About the marriage, I have no opinions... I’ll follow your lead, I own two new houses in the city. Pick one, or rather, you can have both—renovate however you want. Later on, Auntie won’t need to work outside, and Little Zheng can go to school while receiving treatment."

Upon hearing these words, Gu Xiaoning forcefully swallowed her dissatisfaction.

Whether she liked him or not, what did it matter? As long as her family was okay, she’d put up with anything.

But truly, the cake was something she couldn’t eat.

"Miss Gu, aren’t you going to eat?"

Gu Xiaoning smiled and pushed the cake plate in front of him, "I don’t like sweets; I fear gaining weight. You can have it for me!"

"Oh." The man nodded and laughed, "Of course, being this pretty requires maintenance. Then I’ll help you eat!"

"Mm!"

In the booth compartment, Le Zhengsheng’s expression fluctuated with uncertainty, a hint of a smile.

Tsk, Gu Xiaoning, not bad! Just a few days ago kissing him, now she’s here for a blind date with another? Marriage? You’re definitely out of your mind!
