Chapter 1917: Chapter 2003: Long Time No See
After all, desire isn’t something you can just control at will!
Su Xuan hung up the phone and drove his sports car to check on his family’s hotel, where they were making final preparations.
When he arrived at the hotel, sure enough, renovations were still underway. Su Xuan saw that kid Lan Cunxu, and since the last incident, he seemed like a changed person. At the moment, he was diligently rehearsing the doorman’s lines!
"Hey, looks like the kid’s got some sense!"
Su Xuan said with a mischievous grin. Lan Cunxu was very excited to see him.
"Brother, you’re back. Long time no see!"
"You’ve improved, really impressive. I never expected you to change so much!"
"Haha, really, thank you, brother. Honestly, if it weren’t for you, my life might have been ruined. Sometimes I think about what kind of foolish life I used to live, so now I really cherish it!"
Lan Cunxu said gratefully, looking at Su Xuan.
"Not bad. If your dad saw you like this, he’d probably die happy..."
"Ahem..."
Lan Cunxu coughed awkwardly and then patted his head, saying.
; "Speaking of my dad, I almost forgot. He arranged a blind date for me today. Can you cover for me? I really don’t have the time! The opening is coming soon, and I really have a lot to do. If I can’t even play the role of a doorman effectively, I’ll be really embarrassed!"
"Damn, you want me to go on a blind date for you? If your dad finds out, he’ll kill me!"
Su Xuan was speechless.
"You already have like ten or twenty girlfriends, do you still need this kind of date?"
Su Xuan asked curiously!
"Uh... those are just for fun. My dad’s not stupid. I don’t know what got into the old man recently, setting me up with a blind date. Maybe he just wants a grandchild, and he’s probably really disappointed in me. But the old man has one requirement: that I go to the date as an ordinary person. You have no idea; I just realized that apart from being President Lan, I have nothing!"
Lan Cunxu said awkwardly, looking at Su Xuan. Over this period, Lan Cunxu went on several blind dates, but they all ended poorly. Without a sports car and a notable Beijing background, he realized how much of a failure he was—even girls from assembly lines wouldn’t look at him!
"Seems like you’ve faced quite a few setbacks!"
Su Xuan said with a mischievous grin.
"More than that, I think the old man just wants me to see how much of a failure I am without the title of President Lan. Alright, stop making fun of me. Just help me out today. It’s just a few words!"
Lan Cunxu no longer wanted to attend any blind dates, thinking they were a bit ridiculous.
"Fine, I’ll go handle it for you later!"
"Oh, and remember to take a video. The old man will check!"
"Damn!"
Su Xuan rolled his eyes, then drove off in his sports car. The meeting place was a small restaurant, likely arranged by Lan Cunxu’s father. Su Xuan found Lan Cunxu’s father quite interesting; he probably set everything up to show Luo Cunxu the harshness of the world. Without effort, he wouldn’t even be able to find a wife.
When Su Xuan arrived at the small restaurant, he parked his car a bit farther away, hid the keys, and then went inside. The woman hadn’t arrived yet, so Su Xuan ordered a coffee. Soon, a fashionably dressed woman walked in. She looked decent, and Su Xuan nodded at her. Before coming in, she glanced around at the surrounding cars. She appeared mysterious, but Su Xuan could sense her intentions. He couldn’t help but admire her. These days, women on blind dates are quite impressive; the man might lose at the starting line without even realizing it!
"Waiter, a cup of coffee!"
Su Xuan ordered a coffee for her. The woman crossed her legs and looked at Su Xuan, pouting. She thought he looked okay, but it was a pity that he was too poor.
"Should we get straight to the point? Do you have a car?"
"No!"
Su Xuan shook his head, thinking to himself how realistic blind dates have become these days.
"Do you have a house?"
The woman took a sip of coffee, asking nonchalantly!
"No!"
Su Xuan continued, thinking to himself that losers shouldn’t go on blind dates; how could they survive? Su Xuan, with his keen eyes, could tell that this woman wasn’t a rich girl. Based on his assessment, she was probably just a working-class girl from a foot spa. But her demands seemed too high.
Su Xuan had never been on a blind date before; this was his first time, and he didn’t expect the counterpart to be so straightforward. It was indeed unimaginable!
"And your savings?"
"I’ve just started working, so only a few thousand bucks!"
Su Xuan was referring to Lan Cunxu, and he wasn’t lying. Lan Cunxu indeed had no car or house; what he had belonged to his father. Plus, this guy was just at the beginning of his career, and the few thousand in savings was actually an overstatement!
"Tch. What bad luck!"
The woman muttered softly, then stealthily took out her phone and snapped a picture of Su Xuan, posting it on her social media with the caption!
"What bad luck, ran into an old-fashioned man. Imagine coming to a place like this for a blind date!"
"What do you do for a living?"
The woman asked provocatively.
"Doorman! I will work very hard. My boss said that if I do well, I’ll become a Deputy Manager in the future!"
Su Xuan said earnestly, then added another sentence!
"I will work hard. I believe I will have a car, a house, and savings in the future!"
"Wishful thinking, wake up, such childish dreams! Can’t believe anyone would believe that. So naive!"
The woman was now looking down on Su Xuan to the extreme, then got up to leave!
"Five hundred!"
Su Xuan suddenly said!
"What do you mean!"
The woman was clearly angry and was about to explode when Su Xuan raised a finger.
"A thousand!"
"Are you nuts!"
"Two thousand!"
Su Xuan held up two fingers, speaking with a pained expression!
"I’m not that kind of person!"
When the woman said this, she was clearly not as angry as before, and her tone had softened considerably.
"Three thousand, one night!"
Su Xuan added a finger. The woman had already turned to leave. Although she was tempted, she felt a bit embarrassed; if it weren’t a blind date, she definitely would have agreed.
Her profession was precisely what Su Xuan had guessed—a massage therapist at a foot spa. Having relationships with clients was actually quite normal, and after doing so, they typically only received five hundred, as that was the going rate!
