Chapter 22 Blind Date

Qin Jian's resignation came very late. When Qin Zhou graduated and was successfully admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts, and Bai Zhiwang worked smoothly in the Academy, this long journey of coming out of the closet came to an end.

Qin Zhou graduated late. At that time, all major research institutes were basically cutting their salaries, but the Academy of Fine Arts offered a price that was quite sincere. Although the resettlement subsidy was not as high as that of Bai Zhiwang, it could also help the young couple reduce a lot of burden.

Qin Zhou specially opened another card, calculated the house money and returned it to Bai Zhiwang.At that time, Bai Zhiwang was still a little strange. He felt that there was no need to distinguish between dating, but since Qin Zhou gave it to him, he would continue and treat it as a joint financial management.

The young lovers finally survived the tight life, and the Qin family finally stopped being so stiff.But Qin Zhou no longer had unreasonable expectations, and would remit some insignificant money to his family every month.

On a perfectly normal afternoon, Lin Nianying suddenly came uninvited, tapped the door with her handbag, and looked at the doorbell that was in disrepair and the neighbor next door who just came home drunk.

Before that, Qin Zhou was still fooling around with Bai Zhiwang, so it was very embarrassing for the young couple to face the uninvited guest.

Lin Nianying has also seen strong winds and waves, and after Qin Zhou's coming out, nothing can make her angry.So when she saw Qin Zhou with blushing face and Bai Zhiwang with shirt buttons scattered, she just frowned slightly and reminded: "Even if you are in your own home, you should be careful."

Qin Zhou rolled his eyes in his heart, slandering, do we still have to choose auspicious days for sex?

Bai Zhiwang took over the conversation gracefully, said "yes", and then took out the tea that Ding Gu had brought but they had been reluctant to drink to make tea for the mother-in-law.

Bai Zhiwang's hospitality was very thoughtful. In addition to preparing the tea that Lin Nianying wanted, he also cleaned up half a bucket of garbage and the pants that were left on the sofa before she found out, and then consciously locked himself in the bedroom.

The space is very small, and the sound insulation of the old house is not good. Bai Zhiwang can still hear the movement outside after locking the door.

Lin Nianying said: "If you need anything, you can speak up. There are still many empty houses at home."

The meaning in the words is distressed, after all, Qin Zhou has never been so wronged in his life.

"Thank you mom, I'm fine now." Qin Zhou smiled and pushed the teacup towards her.

Lin Nianying didn't drink at all, "Let's take him home for a meal during the Chinese New Year."

Qin Zhou raised his eyebrows.

Lin Nianying added: "Your father wants to see him."

This was the first time Qin Jian proposed to see Bo Zhiwang.Qin Zhou can't make decisions for others: "I have to ask him what he means."

Lin Nianying knew that she was not welcome, so she didn't stay any longer. After drinking the water in the cup, she praised the tea maker's skill as a routine, and got up to leave.

Qin Zhou suddenly stopped her and asked, "Are you sure you won't divorce my dad?"

Under Lin Nianying's exquisite bracelet, a section of skin with a very different color difference was exposed. She had done a full set of medical and aesthetic treatments to resist aging, but she never tried to get rid of that scar.That was the hole that Qin Jian cut her at the beginning, and Qin Jian also had many wounds on his arm.

At the end of the family dog-blood ethics drama, no one was alarmed except the hospital. They still performed brilliantly as a beautiful couple for 20 years after wrapping up the gauze.

Qin Zhou added: "Now I have graduated for a long time. I don't need the high school entrance examination or the college entrance examination. I am completely independent and economically free. I am no longer a burden to you. You should not continue to torture each other because of me, right?"

Lin Nianying shrugged her shoulders and said, forget it, marriage is not like this anyway.

On the day of the Chinese New Year, Bai Zhiwang was as nervous as if he was going to an interview—no, it was more than an interview.No examiner would hate talents, but no one can tell what Qin Jian's preferences are.

Qin Zhou tried to comfort him, Qin Jian and Lin Nianying had always been well-mannered when they were outsiders, and it was impossible for them to lose courtesy to Bo Zhiwang.

Facts have proved that Qin Jian really has a way of dealing with people, prepared a sumptuous dinner for the guests, and spoke kindly, not as scary as imagined.While chatting with Qin Jian about the recent stock market, Bai Zhiwang secretly hooked Qin Zhou's little finger under the table.

"Zhiwang, are you interested in coming to our company?" Halfway through the meal, Qin Jian suddenly called out cordially, making the young couple uncomfortable, "I think your research ability and conduct are very good, even if you work in the scientific research institute until the end How much is a year? Don't you feel wronged?"

Bai Zhiwang understood the useless meaning in the words, exchanged glances with Qin Zhou, and declined.

Qin Jian also offered attractive technology investment and R&D executive positions to persuade: "The main reason is that you and Qin Zhou have had such a hard time. Of course, parents will feel distressed. Besides, you are so smart and top-notch in all aspects. Why don't you come to our company, so that the benefits don't flow to outsiders?"

Bai Zhiwang still gently refused.

Qin Jian was puzzled: "You don't think that you can make some earth-shattering achievements just by doing academics?"

Bai Zhiwang said humbly: "I didn't think too far, but I really like the subjects at hand. I feel very happy to be able to live a life with the things I like and the people I like."

Qin Jian frowned: "Useless people will use security as a shield. You have read so many books and have such high qualifications. You should think about how to transform it into something more useful."

Qin Jian's high demands on Qin Zhou's other half meant that the big one would simply open up a small one to use it—since the child's "problems" can't be corrected, he and his partner's value should be maximized also can.

Everyone here understands the implication. Qin Jian looks down on Bai Zhiwang and wants to make him angry.

Qin Zhou shook his head as he listened to it, half-relieved and half-jokingly said: "Dad, you are quite competent as the chairman of the board. Didn't you forget to recruit when you had dinner with your daughter-in-law?"

Lin Nianying didn't speak all the time, and only laughed when Qin Zhou spoke. This kid didn't know how to talk like this before. It seems that Bai Zhiwang's appearance really changed him a lot.

"Okay, why do you start working overtime at home after eating well?" Lin Nianying intervened in time, "Qin Zhou, do you and Xiaobai have any plans for the evening?"

Qin Zhou moved out all day without any arrangements.So Lin Nianying asked them to go to the Bund at night to meet old friends.

The "friends" in Lin Nianying's mouth were all met by Qin Zhou in elementary school or the attached middle school, and most of them lost contact because of different life paths. I don't know what Lin Nianying's plan is, and today he suddenly asked him to meet these people, and even brought him along with him. Shangbai Zhiwang.

Doubts are doubts, it’s not easy to refuse elders after Chinese New Year, so Qin Zhou reluctantly went.

The meeting place was at a newly opened French restaurant, and it was said that the former Michelin-star chef owner was a friend of someone in the banquet, so they were able to sit in the best viewing area.

Qin Zhou and Bai Zhiwang were led through the gradient glass and classical window lattices in the hall to a spacious and secluded semi-open room.It is indeed the place with the best view, you can see the skyline as far as you can see, and the grotesque Huangpu River scene shrouded in night.

Qin Zhou introduced Bai Zhiwang, and after that, he had to introduce his friends one by one. So-and-so is studying Ph.D. in Sociology at Hopkins. So-and-so just received the transfer order from the bank headquarters. International Lawyer...

When introducing this lawyer, Bai Zhiwang always felt that other people seemed to be smiling with unknown meaning.

Everyone at the table is well-dressed and well-dressed. Being in the CBD itself is a particularly eye-catching scenery. Bai Zhiwang has never experienced such a high-intensity beauty crit.

Chatting with peers was not as restrained as it was at home just now. In order not to embarrass Bai Zhiwang, everyone deliberately made him the center of the topic.

Bai Zhiwang always answered fluently, and he was able to pick up a sentence or two when talking about anecdotes in non-professional fields.Qin Zhou was afraid that he would not be able to blend in, but now it seems that his teacher Bai really has no shortcomings, including how to behave in the world.After all, not everyone can be promoted to a sub-high school at a young age, and win so many key research and development funds as a master's degree, which is rare in a scientific research institute.

In fact, Bai Zhiwang has a quiet temperament, just like jade always wraps the inner color, so it makes people feel comfortable and warm.But today I don't know what's going on. He has a childish desire to win, as if deliberately showing happiness to everyone.

The act of opening the peacock's tail was so cute in Qin Zhou's eyes. He held Bai Zhiwang's arm and flirted with these old friends.

After a few glasses of red wine, the atmosphere is basically open to chatting. Apart from compliments, everyone knows that the couple has a good relationship, so they are all talking about the embarrassing things about Qin Zhou when he was a child.Bai Zhiwang is very unfamiliar with these things, but he loves to hear how Qin Zhou was beaten on the back of his hand by the music teacher because he didn't take piano lessons seriously.

There were all kinds of exquisite dinner plates on the table. After reaping a lot of goodwill, Bai Zhiwang was finally able to eat quietly.

When he was about to move the knife and fork, Qin Zhou suddenly took his hand and asked in a very soft voice, "Aren't you allergic to seafood?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Then don't touch this yet," Qin Zhou stretched out his hand to cover the two dishes, but they were not the seafood in Bai Zhiwang's impression, "I'm afraid you'll get a rash."

Bai Zhiwang took back the knife and fork calmly.

He later learned that there were garden snails and unremarkable caviar that he had never seen before.They are all common dishes in French cuisine, but they belong to a world he has never touched.He also belatedly discovered how careful Qin Zhou was in taking care of his self-esteem.

These emotions are like a thorn with an indescribable origin, which is actually very insignificant, but I just don't know where it hits.

After the small episode, Bai Zhiwang continued to maintain a decent and generous smile, pretending nothing happened.

However, he knew that no matter how hard he tried to show his calmness and excellence, he was still like a clown, and he couldn't fit in with the people at this table.

They'll try to compliment him and make him feel good, not even out of appreciation, but just upbringing and social refinement.

In the middle of the meal, Qin Zhou was suddenly pulled away by some girls, who said they were going to take a photo together.

After most of the people left the table, it suddenly became deserted, only Bai Zhiwang and the lawyer friend just now were still facing each other from a distance.

The man was wearing a high-end drapey shirt, walked up to Bai Zhiwang, and asked, "Did Qin Zhou never mention me to you?"

Bai Zhiwang was stunned for a second, facing that handsome face, he could only deal with the hard-to-take Bar and the millions of GlobalPay in his mind for the time being.

He lied: "I should have mentioned, a very good lawyer friend."

"Don't, I don't believe this, so he won't introduce me seriously." The lawyer friend is sincere and generous, he smiled and said seriously, "Actually, apart from being a friend, I have another identity today."

Bai Zhiwang waited for him to continue.

He smiled: "I'm the blind date Mr. Lin arranged for him."

Bai Zhiwang frowned, his genuine boyfriend is still here, where is the blind date that appeared so arrogant.

The other side hurriedly waved his hands: "Don't get me wrong, Qin Zhou didn't know, but Mr. Lin asked me to come to see him. It's ridiculous, isn't it?"

He put the knife and fork away, turned his head to look at the bustling crowd on the Bund, and said, "I also find it ridiculous. I can't tell whether their family is enlightened or conservative. Why do they still care about the same family in what age? But I came to talk to Qin Zhou opened up his words, and also wanted to see what kind of person his partner was."

Bai Zhi looked silently, wondering if there should be some declaration of war next, but he didn't expect that the other party just smiled kindly: "I really didn't expect him to have such a good eye. If I hadn't known him since childhood, maybe it would have started by now." Love is taken by sword."

Bai Zhiwang could hear a joke of this scale, so it wasn't easy to show how much he cared, so he nodded and accepted it.

Qin Zhou was still kept in the dark. When he came back, he only saw his boyfriend and his good friend chatting happily, but he couldn't get in the way: "Lawyer Xing, can you bring my boyfriend back? My house is far away. Gotta go now."

The barrister joked along with his words: "It's useless if you don't return it. I'm quite concerned about the model."

Qin Zhou laughed and cursed and kicked him.
