Chapter 78 Blind Date
The free clinic went very smoothly, and things had been very peaceful since the previous disturbance.
In the past few days, Lin Yuan took some time to go to the site several times. After finding no problems, he stopped paying attention to it.
This free clinic event will last for a week and will end in two days.
That day, Lin Yuan was working on documents in his office when he glanced at his vibrating phone and frowned.
"Sister Lingxiu, what does she want from me again?"
"Could it be that Fatty Chu has gone out to have some fun again?"
Lin Yuan was puzzled, and this was the only possibility he could think of. After all, if it weren't related to Fatty Chu, Sister Lingxiu wouldn't have come looking for him.
He chose to answer the call; if he pretended not to hear it, he knew he would be in big trouble afterward.
"Hey, Sister Lingxiu, what's up? Has Fatty Chu gone out to have some fun again?"
After Lin Yuan answered the phone, he asked directly.
"No, after he came back last time, I locked him in the house so he wouldn't go out and fool around."
"Oh, I see. So, Sister Lingxiu, why did you call me?"
Lin Yuan asked.
Since it wasn't because of Fatty Chu, Chu Lingxiu shouldn't have any reason to call me.
"Lin Yuan, have you forgotten that you're supposed to be my shield?"
"Forehead……"
Lin Yuan remembered that last time Chu Lingxiu brought him to the Chu family, she directly told Chu Huarong that she was dating him.
The reason is that her family is pressuring her to get married, and she wants to use herself as a shield to block those annoying blind dates.
Lin Yuan did not object to this, after all, Chu Lingxiu was also an older sister he respected, and he would be happy to help if he could.
"So, Sister Lingxiu called because she wants me to step in and stop your blind date?"
Lin Yuan asked.
"Yes, my dad doesn't like you. Even though I told him I'm dating you, he keeps introducing me to blind dates, and now he's forcing me to go on them. So, little brother, I'm begging you."
“Sure, no problem, Sister Lingxiu. Just give me an address and I’ll be there right away.”
"Haiyue Restaurant."
"Okay, by the way, Sister Lingxiu, Xiaobao is with me. I should be able to bring her along, right?"
"Xiao Bao? Oh, your daughter? She's alright."
Upon hearing "Xiao Bao," Chu Lingxiu pondered for a moment before realizing it was the nickname of Lin Yuan's daughter.
Seeing that Chu Lingxiu had agreed, Lin Yuan did not hesitate, hung up the phone, and put down his work.
Then, he looked at Xiaobao, who was playing alone beside him, came to her, and picked her up.
"Xiao Bao, how about coming out with Daddy?"
"it is good!"
Xiao Bao had no doubts; as long as she could stay by her father's side, she was willing to go anywhere.
Afterwards, Yang Gang drove Lin Yuan and Xiao Bao towards Haiyue Restaurant.
Haiyue Restaurant is owned by the Chu family, and Chu Lingxiu is the direct person in charge of the restaurant.
So when she arrived at Haiyue Restaurant, the manager was already standing at the door, personally welcoming her.
"Miss Chu."
The manager of Haiyue Restaurant was a mature woman dressed in a professional manager's suit. When she saw Chu Lingxiu coming over, she hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to greet her.
"No need to be so polite. I have an appointment here today, so I'll go in first."
As Chu Lingxiu walked, she gave instructions to the manager beside her.
"Lin Yuan will be here in a little while. You stay here and keep an eye on things. Once Lin Yuan arrives, take him directly to my private room, understand?"
"Understood, Miss Chu."
The restaurant manager nodded in agreement without asking any questions. She simply did whatever Chu Lingxiu instructed her to do; that was the reason she was able to become the restaurant manager.
After giving her instructions, Chu Lingxiu walked directly into Haiyue Restaurant and headed towards the private room she had arranged in advance.
She quickly entered the private room, where a man was already waiting.
Upon seeing Chu Lingxiu, he immediately stood up and spoke very politely.
"Hello, Miss Chu. My name is Li Feixiang. Please have a seat."
Chu Lingxiu looked at the boy in front of her who was politely introducing himself. He was wearing an expensive custom-made suit, was slightly chubby, and had a fair complexion. He was quite presentable.
If there's any drawback, it might be that the other person's eyes aren't big enough; even though they're open, they look like they're squinting.
"I think you should know what the purpose of our meeting is, so I'll just say it directly: you are not good enough for me."
Chu Lingxiu sat directly opposite Li Feixiang, making no attempt to hide her disdain. She leaned back in her chair and crossed her legs.
Li Feixiang clearly hadn't expected Chu Lingxiu to be so direct and so blunt, saying right off the bat that he wasn't good enough for her. This made him lose face, and Li Feixiang clenched his fist and laughed.
"Of course I know that, but the fact that Uncle Chu arranged for the two of us to meet means that he appreciates some of my strengths."
"Miss Chu, I want to fight for a chance for myself."
Li Feixiang spoke calmly.
Upon hearing this, Chu Lingxiu glanced at Li Feixiang again. After she said those words, her previous blind date partners only had two reactions: either they were angry and embarrassed, feeling that they had been humiliated.
Secondly, they feel ashamed of themselves because they understand the gap between themselves and others.
Li Feixiang, surprisingly, was able to speak these words without becoming angry or ashamed. Instead, he wanted to seize an opportunity.
It's quite interesting.
Why should I give you this opportunity?
Chu Lingxiu retorted dismissively.
“Miss Chu is a daughter of the Chu family, one of the four great families in Beicheng. I understand that this is a great honor for me, but I also understand that the more noble a person is like Miss Chu, the less likely they are to easily get married.”
"Anyone who can go on a blind date with Miss Chu must be aligned with the Chu family in terms of interests. The fact that Uncle Chu chose me at least shows that I have value. Why don't you witness my value before making a decision, Miss Chu?"
Li Feixiang spoke clearly. He looked at Chu Lingxiu, who was truly a beauty. It would be a lie to say that he wasn't moved or didn't want to have her.
Chu Lingxiu frowned. This person in front of her was indeed extraordinary. He didn't pursue her; instead, he talked about interests with her.
Does it mean you believe you would make sacrifices for the family's interests?
If that's what he thinks, then he's completely wrong.
Chu Lingxiu stretched out her finger and gently tapped the table in front of her, speaking in a very regretful tone.
"I'm sorry, I can't give you that chance, because I already have someone I like."
