Watching Shiyao naturally lying to her mother that he was an honest business manager, You Ze felt it was really interesting, intense smile on his lips.
As it was getting late, Shiyao’s mother invited him to stay for supper.
“Mom, he is too busy to stay here!” Shiyao answered quickly before You Ze did, taking him out. It was not until they went downstairs that Shiyao was relieved.
“Just go,” Shiyao waved at him, urging him to leave. “Mr. You, thank you for all you did for me today, but I hope you can pretend not to know me when we meet in company.”
You Ze couldn’t help teasing her, “Eh? You don’t want to latch onto me?”
This backer was too powerful for her to rely on; what’s more, she wasn’t brave enough….
After a long while, Shiyao chuckled, “You don’t need to feel you owe me something and say something like riding your coattails. We both clear that it’s a consensual s.e.x.”
Then she turned upstairs. You Ze watched her back and got in the car with a smile hanging at the corner of his lips.
What a pretty monster.
You’s House-
Jiang Fengyi looked eagerly out of the window, muttering every few seconds, “He promised to come back for dinner, why not showing up yet? Is he overjoyed at the dating?”
There was a long time until two beams of light shot into the garden, and a Bentley quietly drove in.
The butler saw him first and reminded the old lady, “Madam, young master comes back.”
“Oh, yes!” So did Jiang Fengyi. She hurried to the door to receive him.
The door opened and only You Ze came in. Jiang Fengyi waited so long but didn’t see anyone, so she went out to check, none outside. Eventually she asked, “Where’s the girl?
“I’ve sent her home.”
“Why don’t you bring her back to dinner and send her back after that?” Jiang Fengyi said, suspecting her grandson’s EQ.
He seemed in a good mood, so she thought the date went well, and followed him into the drawing-room, where she asked him a series of questions.
“Did you take a walk after having coffee?”
“Did you visit her parents when you dropped her off?”
“Have you fixed a time for next meeting with the girl? Huh?”
You Ze was dumfounded, tore his tie and sat on the sofa, “Nana, the date didn’t show up. The girl I drove back is only a friend of mine.”
Stunned, Jiang Fengyi said, “Well. Friends can progress to lovers. Come on, what do you think of her?”
You Ze recalled scenes he met Shiyao today, smile creeping up his lips.
“She’s interesting.”
Grandma was delighted to hear there was hope, “As you said, Nana also likes her very much! How about bringing her back to meet me and then choosing wedding dresses for your wedding?”
“Nana, it’s too early to talk about getting married.”
“Why not? Look how old you are!” Jiang Fengyi angrily stared at him, “Zhao Xuehan is married. Are you going to miss her all your life?”
It wasn’t until grandmother finished her words that she noticed You Ze’s face was falling.
“A’ze, I mean….”
“Nana, we’ll talk about it later. I’m gonna take a shower upstairs.” With this You Ze turned to go upstairs, provoking Jiang Fengyi into stamping her foot.
“Old Sun, look at him!” Grandmother complaint to the butler, worried. “He keeps the girl in mind, but she might have forgotten him long ago. He’s been like this for years!”
“Madam, don’t be angry. It’s normal that young master remembers Miss Xuehan, after all, they grew up together.” The butler comforted granny. “Why don’t we think about how to set up young master with that girl?”
“What’s your idea?”
Butler Sun whispered into Jiang Fengyi’s ear, “I sent someone to follow young master this morning, and knew where he had sent the girl to. How about….”
Soon Jiang Fengyi beamed and admired the butler, “Old Sun, You’re awesome. You go get it, leave young master to me!”
