“Am I really that good? Why are you still calling me Mr. Chen? I thought we could call each other by name,” Haijun laughed lightly, finding the woman in front of him easy to talk to.
To prove her point, Xia Bing nodded, sincerely saying, “I’m telling the truth. Nowadays, very few men would serve women, especially for an unremarkable woman.” Of course, if she were a celestial beauty, there might be a crowd of men willing to serve her.
“So, you say I’m good. Why don’t you think I might be deceiving you?” Chen Haijun looked at Xia Bing sideways, noting how petite she was, with a bright smile that showed she was quite outgoing.
“Intuition! From the details, I just know you’re a good person.” Her unintentional movements revealed inherent good breeding that couldn’t be faked, and Xia Bing turned to face Chen Haijun.
“So that means I’ve met your requirements, and you’re somewhat satisfied… then I can become your pursuer…”
Xia Bing’s foot slipped, and she tilted to one side. Chen Haijun grabbed her hand, steadying her. “Are you okay?”
Xia Bing glanced at Chen Haijun, “Why did you say something so terrifying…”
Chen Haijun was puzzled, “Terrifying words?”
Xia Bing nodded, explaining that she was walking fine until his words made her lose her balance.
“I’m very serious,” he said. This blind date was something he had to attend due to social obligations, but he hadn’t expected to enjoy their conversation so much. He always followed his feelings, so he naturally proposed dating.
The problem was she didn’t want to get married. Although marriage was far off, if they started dating, and given Chen Haijun’s excellent qualities and demeanor, she might eventually develop feelings…
“You…” Xia Bing looked into his serious eyes, struggling to speak.
“Let’s go eat first. Do you have any restaurant recommendations?” Chen Haijun, noticing her hesitation, skillfully changed the subject, remembering Wen Ayi’s words about Xia Bing’s reluctance towards romance.
Xia Bing’s good impression of Chen Haijun increased, recognizing her own evasiveness.
“Sorry, my friend is drunk, and I need to help her home,” Xia Bing received a call from Xiao Yu, apologetically smiling at Chen Haijun.
