After a blind date, a wealthy heir asked me to marry him.

Before Lu Shiyi could respond, Tang Yiran walked calmly toward the booth.

She first went to get a glass of red wine, then, sucking in her stomach, gracefully walked towards the man.

At that moment, He Ze, who was enjoying the food, noticed a figure in his peripheral vision, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

"Hello."

Tang Yiran was the first to greet them.

He Ze turned his head and met a pretty and sweet face. He looked the girl in front of him up and down and smiled politely in response, "Hello."

Those who strike up a conversation with him here are either because of his relationship with the Fu Group or because of his identity as the second young master of the He family.

He thought, surely they couldn't be after his sunny and handsome appearance?

Seeing the man smiling, Tang Yiran continued, "Would you like to have a drink?"

As an unknown person, she was likely to be ignored if she tried to greet someone at such a high-class banquet, so she was always prepared to be rejected.

"my pleasure."

He Ze raised his glass, a humble smile always on his face.

He was very curious about the woman's purpose in striking up a conversation with him.

Seeing this, Tang Yiran happily raised her glass, while also turning slightly to the side so that her friend behind her could take the best photo.

The man before me, though I don't know what he's really like, at least appears kind on the surface.

As Tang Yiran got into position, her mind raced, "What else should I say?"

She thought for a moment, then said, "The Australian lobsters here are especially delicious. I've tried it myself, and I'm not kidding. You should try them."

Since I can't think of anything else to say, I can only share my experience of this banquet.

He Ze: "..."

This approach to striking up a conversation was rather clumsy.

As Tang Yiran spoke, she glanced behind her out of the corner of her eye and was overjoyed to see her friend give her an OK sign.

She took a small sip of red wine, trying to maintain her final elegance: "Thank you for the honor, I hope we'll meet again someday~"

After saying that, Tang Yiran immediately turned around and took a deep breath.

If she had held on for just one more second, she would have given in.

At this moment, He Ze, who still had a gentlemanly smile on his face and was about to respond, was left with a blank expression: "???"

"what's the situation?"

"This... goodbye???"

After Tang Yiran turned around, she walked straight towards Lu Shiyi, leaving He Ze, who had been approached, standing there stunned.

When he came to his senses, he only saw the girl's slender figure gradually disappearing into the distance.

He Ze gazed into the distance, his eyes narrowing slightly. "This girl is interesting."

He just didn't know what her purpose was in striking up a conversation with him.

And another thing, when striking up a conversation, they didn't even introduce themselves...

After Tang Yiran returned to Lu Shiyi's side, the two of them got up and walked towards the banquet entrance.

Since they had almost finished eating, there was no point in staying any longer, so after taking the photos, they prepared to leave.

Perhaps both of them felt a little guilty, especially Lu Shiyi.

Fortunately, she only took a picture of the other person's side profile, and her best friend only used the photo to appease the aunt and wouldn't use it for anything else, otherwise she would have felt really bad.

After all, it was taken without the other party's knowledge.

As Lu Shiyi and her best friend walked out the door, they were still admiring the photos.

"Eleven, your photography skills are impressive! The angle is perfect, and my attitude looks quite professional, like I'm having a serious conversation with the other person. Let's see what my mom can say this time!"

"The key is that the other party only has one side of the picture, so even if my mom wanted to go and find them, she wouldn't know where to start, hehehe..."

She knows her mother too well. Once her mother sees the other person's full appearance, even if there's only a one in a million chance that she and that person are a couple, her mother will dig three feet into the ground to find that person.

After Tang Yiran finished commenting, she casually sent the photo to her mother.

With this ambiguous photo, she can at least have some peace and quiet for a while.

As the two approached the banquet entrance, Fu Cheng, still surrounded by a large group, glanced at his watch. He knew it was time to leave. He had only come to meet his clients briefly and exchange a few words; he hadn't planned to stay any longer.

At this moment, He Ze also arrived. Upon learning that Fu Cheng was about to leave, he exchanged a few pleasantries with the other executives and then left with Fu Cheng.

Instantly, the banquet hall surged with people again. Those who hadn't managed to speak with Fu Cheng before hoped to say a few words before he left. So, at this moment, Fu Cheng was like a tornado, drawing people wherever he went.

As the crowd moved toward the banquet entrance, Lu Shiyi and his companion, who had just arrived at the entrance, felt a surge of people rushing toward them from behind, and they could hear words like "obey" or "vice president" from time to time.

"Hey, watch where you're going, don't, don't... push... Hey, it's Eleven, it's Eleven, quickly pull me up."

Wearing high heels and a fitted dress, Tang Yiran felt like she was about to be pushed over, so she quickly called out to her friend next to her.

Lu Shiyi was alright; she was wearing casual clothes, so her movements weren't too restricted, but she was still jostled and pushed around by the crowd.

Hearing her friend shout, she quickly reached out and grabbed the other person's arm tightly to prevent her from falling.

Just then, someone suddenly appeared out of nowhere and rushed straight towards the two of them, probably trying to catch up with the large group that was about to leave through the door.

Lu Shiyi reacted quickly, pulling her friend aside to dodge.

Finally, the two found a moment of peace by taking refuge behind a luxurious and heavy door.

Fortunately, the two of them didn't fall, otherwise, things might have been a different story.

At the same time, Fu Cheng, who was surrounded, heard a familiar name faintly in his ear.

A hint of tenderness suddenly appeared in his cold, dark eyes, perhaps without him even realizing it.

"is her?"

Then, he glanced around the crowd but didn't see any trace of them.

That's true, how could she possibly be here?

Thinking about his reaction just now, Fu Cheng thought it was just a normal reaction to hearing the name of someone he knew, nothing to worry about.

Then, surrounded by the crowd, he strode confidently and steadily out of the banquet hall.

Lu Shiyi looked at the crowd surging out and felt a sense of emotion.

It turns out that even the most polite and well-mannered upper-class people have such a wild side. It seems that one's image depends on the time and the person.

The person who just went out was probably the same important figure from before. Neither she nor Tang Yiran ever saw the true face of that so-called important figure.

After that, the two of them left the banquet.

Lu Shiyi was driven back to the study hall by her friend. She stayed there for a while before locking the door and riding her electric scooter home.

Before entering the residential compound, she thought of her drunken husband from the previous night.

He was so drunk yesterday that he probably wouldn't have much of an appetite today, but he still managed to have a delicious and satisfying meal.

I felt a little guilty because I had pinched him so hard that his skin turned so purple.

So she turned around and bought some appetizers nearby before heading home.

Lu Shiyi wasn't sure if her husband would eat it.

But that's okay, if he doesn't eat it, then consider it a purchase for myself...
