Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
She looked at her watch. It was 6.40 am.
She didn’t return home last night and she was sure her mother would be worried.
Hopping onto the first bus in the morning, she arrived at Jingyuan District at 7.00 am.
Luckily today was a weekend and she did not have to go to work or she would have been late again!
She took the lift to the eleventh floor.
Here, she lived with her mother in a somewhat high-cla.s.s condominium, thanks to her irresponsible father who had bought them a unit.
However, the owners.h.i.+p of this condominium still belonged to her b*stard father!
She took out the house keys when she arrived at the door and upon entering the hall, she saw Jiang Huaiyuan, her father, sitting on the couch!
Zuo Weiyi was dumbfounded for a few seconds before she walked over to the couch.
Zuo Qing, who was seated on the couch, turned around and saw that her daughter was home.
She would usually smile when her daughter was home but today, she seemed dejected.
“Weiyi, you are home!” Jiang Huaiyuan, who was sitting beside Zuo Qing, stood up. He had a smile on his face.
Zuo Weiyi was taken aback.
Normally, her father would not come to their house and every time he saw her, he would not smile, but what was happening today? What brought him here?
“Weiyi, you…” Zuo Qing looked up and wanted to ask her where she had been last night, but she looked at Jiang Huaiyuan and fell into a silence.
Looking at her mother’s expression, Zuo Weiyi knew pretty well that her mother wanted to ask her where she had gone last night but stopped because her father was there.
She turned toward Jiang Huaiyuan and asked, “Why are you here?”
Her tone of voice was blatantly cold.
Jiang Huaiyuan, on the other hand, was all smiles. “Come here, Weiyi. I’d like to discuss something with you.”
He walked over and pulled Zuo Weiyi warmly to the couch.
Zuo Weiyi was confused with her father’s friendliness and warmth.
Was last night’s rain a red rain? Her father, who was usually indifferent towards her and her mother, was so friendly today!
Unusual!
She raised her head and looked at Zuo Qing and saw that her head was lowered, while she appeared dull and gloomy.
“Err…Weiyi, I’d like to introduce a boyfriend to you. Here, take this address and go on a date, alright?” Jiang Huaiyuan said while taking out a piece of paper from his pocket. It was the address of a restaurant.
Zuo Weiyi was taken aback. She lowered her brows and looked at the address in Jiang Huaiyuan’s hand.
So, he was arranging a blind date for her!
She tilted her head and gave Jiang Huaiyuan a suspicious look.
Why the sudden concern on her marriage?
“It’s not necessary, I don’t want to have a boyfriend now!” She expressed herself in a grumpy manner.
Jiang Huaiyuan paused and turned around to look at Zuo Qing, who was sitting beside him.
He nudged her with his shoulders.
Her eyes met his and Zuo Qing had no choice but to look at her daughter.
“Weiyi, it’s just a meal together, or…” She paused. Her daughter was only twenty-one years old and she didn’t want her marriage to be a deal.
However, she could not decline Jiang Huaiyuan’s piteous plead.
“Just show your face. Let’s not put your father in a difficult position.”
Zuo Weiyi knew very well that her mother was soft-hearted, especially towards her father!
“Yes, yes, yes, it’s just a lunch together. If…if you don’t like him, then let it be, alright?” Jiang Huaiyuan quickly chimed in.
