Chapter 78 I Know Who the Girl He Likes Is
Liang Liangwei returned to her room, drank some honey water, and then took a shower.
After showering and putting on her pajamas, she heard a knock on the door while drying her hair, so she turned off the hairdryer.
"Who is it?"
"Weiwei, it's me." It was Xiao Ling's voice from outside the door.
Liang Liangwei quickly put down the hairdryer and went to open the door.
"Auntie," she said with a smile, letting Xiao Ling in, "is there something you need?"
Xiao Ling smiled and said, "I forgot to ask you last time, are you comfortable in this room?"
Liang Liangwei: "It's a comfortable room with everything you need."
"That's good," Xiao Ling said, sitting down on the sofa with her. She patted her face, turning it to show her her cheeks, and said, "I used the face mask you gave me, and it really is as moisturizing and comfortable as you said. My face is so soft and smooth, I can hardly believe it's still my own!"
Liang Liangwei was amused; Yan Beian's mother was really cute.
"Auntie's skin is already in very good condition, the face mask is just the icing on the cake."
After the joke ended, Xiao Ling became serious and said, "Actually, there's something I want to ask you about, and I'd like to ask you for a favor."
Liang Liangwei was somewhat flattered: "Auntie, please speak."
Xiao Ling: "It's related to my uncle in Bei'an..."
Liang Liangwei's smile faded slightly, and she immediately put on a serious listening expression.
Xiao Ling: "You heard it at the dinner table just now. Don't laugh at me, but Uncle Bei'an is quite a bit older than his father, though he's not young anymore. He just refuses to have a girlfriend, always saying he's too busy with work. Grandpa Bei'an is very concerned about his marriage. He lives abroad most of the year, and this time, the old man used your and Bei'an's situation to call him back. His purpose is to urge him to find a girlfriend quickly, so he won't always be alone. What's the point of making a lot of money if there's no one to help him spend it?"
Liang Liangwei nodded in agreement; that made perfect sense.
Xiao Ling: "The old man gave him a one-month deadline. If he doesn't find a girlfriend within a month, he'll arrange blind dates for him."
Liang Liangwei couldn't help but smile as she thought of Yan Zhixu's cold expression when he went on a blind date with the woman.
Xiao Ling: "But unexpectedly, when he came back last weekend, he suddenly told us that he had a girl he liked and was pursuing her. We were very surprised. Our first reaction was disbelief. How could such a coincidence happen? Oh, he didn't want to look for someone for the first 30 years of his life, but now that he's back, he's found someone after only a few days?"
Liang Liangwei bit her lower lip: "He said it himself, that he has someone he likes?"
Xiao Ling: "Yes."
Liang Liangwei thought about it for a moment, and the timing did match up. She met him in Shacheng last week, and they had met several more times since then...
So, in his mind, those ambiguous actions of his were considered pursuing her?
Are you just going to keep chasing me like this, with our relationship and identities unclear?
How come I'm the same as her?
She felt a sweet, warm, and cloying feeling wrapped around her heart.
Xiao Ling sighed softly, then changed the subject: "But we were all happy for him, and look, he just said that the girl is ignoring him. I don't know how he was chatting with her, but the old man is so angry that he doesn't want to talk to him anymore."
Liang Liangwei hurriedly asked, "Is Grandpa Bei'an alright?"
Xiao Ling: "It's okay, it's okay. I just went to check, she's already asleep."
Liang Liangwei was relieved.
Xiao Ling: "However, the fact that the girl wasn't greedy for his money shows that she's from a good family, and I like her quite a bit for that reason alone."
Liang Liangwei suddenly thought of He Yaxiu and asked, "Did Miss He go on a blind date with my uncle that day? Did it not work out?"
Xiao Ling: "No, my uncle didn't like her. Later, Mrs. He asked me to tell him to exchange contact information with Miss He. I agreed verbally, but I didn't actually tell him. He made his attitude clear. If I said anything more, he would complain that I was meddling."
Yan Beian's mother is a reasonable and intelligent woman; she would never do something thankless twice.
"Auntie, you're telling me all this because..."
Xiao Ling looked at her meaningfully and said, "Actually, I know who his uncle likes—"
Liang Liangwei's heart skipped a beat: "You...you knew?"
Xiao Ling: "Yes, that's why I came to ask you for help."
Liang Liangwei was momentarily confused again: "Huh? You want my help?"
Isn't it what she thought?
Xiao Ling: "It was about that party the other day. My uncle wanted to pick out some desserts for that girl. I told you about it, remember?"
Liang Liangwei nodded.
Xiao Ling: "But he couldn't decide what the girl liked to eat, so he asked me for help, and I picked out some for him."
Liang Liangwei recalled that he had indeed sent her photos of the cocktail party buffet that night and asked her what she wanted to eat.
Xiao Ling: "I hadn't finished choosing yet when he suddenly said he would also pick one for his girlfriend in Bei'an, and he would deliver it to you as well. I thought about it and realized that I couldn't forget you, so I picked one for you too."
Liang Liangwei quickly figured out why he said that. If he didn't mention it was for his "Beian girlfriend," how could he explain the reason the snacks were in her hands? So he simply sent two.
Xiao Ling laughed and said, "Luckily, Uncle is very observant, otherwise I really wouldn't have noticed. Guess what? When I went to find you later, I found that one of the pastries was in your hands, and the other was actually in your assistant's hands!"
Liang Liangwei was completely confused after hearing the rest: "?"
Xiao Ling: "So your assistant is the girl he likes!"
Liang Liangwei completely lost her smile: "..."
Xiao Ling: "So when he said he was going to bring you some snacks, it was just an excuse to bring snacks to that girl."
Liang Liangwei: "..."
If she hadn't remembered clearly that Lan Yin's reaction that night was that she didn't recognize Yan Zhixu at all, and if Yan Zhixu hadn't only spoken to her the whole time she brought over the snacks and only given them to her, she would have really thought that she and Bei An's mother were in two parallel universes, talking to themselves.
He casually gave one of the two boxes of pastries to Lan Yin, which led Bei An's mother to mistakenly believe that Lan Yin was the girl Yan Zhixu liked...
She was truly at a loss for words, both laughing and crying.
But she couldn't very well clarify that she had given Lan Yin the pastries, as that would make it even more difficult to explain why the pastries meant for "that girl" ended up in her possession.
She cleared her throat: "Um..."
Xiao Ling patted her hand and said, "I won't make things difficult for you. Just ask your assistant what my uncle said that upset her. And say a few nice words for him. He's never coaxed a girl before. Maybe he used the wrong words, maybe his attitude was too harsh, maybe he lost his temper... As long as she can forgive him, he will definitely change!"
Liang Liangwei: "..."
She suddenly had a feeling that Yan Zhixu might need to mobilize the entire Yan family to help him fall in love...
