Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Because Xu Ke needed to pick up Xiao Keyi, he left first. They agreed to meet at that western restaurant in the city center.

On the way there, Bai Lan was constantly on edge.

He never imagined he’d be having dinner with the CEO; it was unimaginable for him before.

Especially since Murong Hai didn’t inform him in advance, Bai Lan had already removed his makeup after work.

"It’s all your fault, now how am I supposed to meet President Xu? I’ve heard he’s a very demanding person. What if he dislikes me?"

Bai Lan’s expression was on the verge of tears; at this moment, he was evidently very frightened.

Murong Hai clearly didn’t expect Bai Lan’s reaction to be so intense; to him, having a meal with Xu Ke was actually quite simple.

Everyone is friends, there’s no need to view him so heavily as the CEO.

"Lanlan, it’s okay. Xu Ke is a good person; he won’t be as serious as you say. Besides, today we’re meeting as friends, not under the company pretense."

Murong Hai tried his best to comfort Bai Lan, hoping he wouldn’t be so nervous.

"How could I not be nervous? This is my first time meeting President Xu. You should have told me earlier; I’ve already removed all my makeup. My cosmetics are all at the office right now; am I supposed to meet him bare-faced?"

Bai Lan had seen Xiao Keyi before; he knew the gap between the two was immense.

And now, without any makeup on, he instantly lost all confidence.

"Moreover, President Xu’s girlfriend is so beautiful; wouldn’t I be embarrassing you in front of her?"

Indeed, when with Murong Hai, Bai Lan sometimes feels very inferior.

Previously, not knowing Murong Hai’s status was fine, but since learning that he and Xu Ke are like brothers, Bai Lan couldn’t stay calm.

Their identities already have a gap, plus Murong Hai is so excellent and handsome.

"Lanlan, don’t think that way. To me, you’re the most beautiful, there’s no woman in the world who can compare to you."

Murong Hai really wasn’t experienced at sweet-talking women.

Bai Lan obviously wasn’t swayed by his words, and he now had no confidence in himself.

"No, no, find me a place quickly. I haven’t even done any makeup; I can’t go to dinner like this."

Bai Lan felt that his biggest baseline was at least putting on makeup, which is a significant thing for a woman.

Murong Hai thought Bai Lan looked better without makeup; he didn’t know why he felt that way.

However, since his girlfriend said so, Murong Hai could only comply.

But the appointment with Xu Ke was approaching, and he had to notify him in advance.

Murong Hai took out his phone to call Xu Ke.

Once the call connected, Murong explained that he was temporarily occupied and might be a bit late.

Xu Ke agreed very promptly, telling Murong Hai to finish his business before coming.

After sorting things out with Xu Ke, Murong Hai began looking for a place for Bai Lan to do makeup.

For an outsider like him, makeup was something he’d never dealt with; he had no clue where to find these things.

Driving around the city center for quite some time, Murong Hai couldn’t find anything.

Murong Hai gradually lost patience; he didn’t know how long it would take if things kept going like this.

"Lanlan, maybe we should just find a random place to do it. I really can’t find a place; if you know where, let me know."

Makeup is usually something girls buy their own cosmetics for and do themselves.

Unless there’s a dedicated makeup shop, it’s hard to find one on the street.

Although Bai Lan liked shopping, he wasn’t very familiar with this.

"I’m not sure either; I usually buy things at the mall in the city center. Why don’t we go there, buy a little something, and let me patch up a bit?"

There wasn’t much choice now, so Murong Hai drove to the city center mall.

Once they arrived at the mall, Murong Hai immediately noticed the Xu Group logo on the storefront.

This surprised him greatly; he didn’t expect this place was actually Xu Group’s property.

"This place is run by our company? When did this happen?"

Murong Hai clearly wasn’t aware of this and felt a bit giddy now.

Bai Lan was quite familiar here, having worked at Xu Group for several years.

"This has always been our company’s, plus we employees get a 40% discount here."

Upon hearing Bai Lan’s words, Murong Hai found it quite novel.

He didn’t expect Xu Group’s capabilities to be this vast; could any random store on the roadside be theirs?

But since they were already here, Murong Hai wondered if he wouldn’t need to spend money.

After all, it’s all Xu Ke’s property; wouldn’t it be better to say a few words to him?

Thinking this, he called Xu Ke again.

"Xu Ke, is the city center mall yours?"

Upon hearing Murong mention the mall, Xu Ke remembered.

A few days ago, he experienced some unfriendly events there, which he still recalled.

"Yes, that mall is ours. Is there a problem?"

It turned out to be Xu Ke’s; Murong Hai lit up instantly.

"No, no, there’s no problem. My girlfriend and I want to buy something here, and I’m wondering if it could be a bit cheaper."

Xu Ke thought it wasn’t a big deal; he wasn’t concerned about such little money, so why fuss between friends?

"Okay then, I’ll let the staff know. Take whatever you see, don’t worry about paying. After you finish shopping, hurry over; we’re almost there too." After saying this, Xu Ke directly hung up the phone.

Bai Lan was bewildered beside him; he didn’t know what Murong Hai had said to Xu Ke.

Murong Hai excitedly did an OK gesture to Bai Lan and pulled him inside.

"What on earth happened? Why are you so excited?" Bai Lan still didn’t know what was happening.

"Oh, don’t ask so much. Whatever you want, I’ll buy it for you today. Even the most expensive thing you fancy, I’ll make sure to get it for you."

Although Bai Lan knew Murong Hai was indeed well-off now, he was still somewhat unused to his sudden lavishness.

"No need for such expensive things; I usually use very cheap ones."

Bai Lan’s always been the frugal type, never spending frivolously.
