Chapter 150: Is It Too Early To Meet The Parents Now
At four in the afternoon, Jiang Yuan received a phone call from Si Heng.
“Li He’an has arranged dinner with his girlfriend. Get ready, Xiao Xu is on her way to pick you up.”
Jiang Yuan’s gaze sharpened, and she said in a serious tone, “Understood.”
After hanging up, she looked at Lan Mei.
The little one looked at her, its round cat pupils sparkling, “Yuan Yuan, can we go out now?”
“Yes.” Jiang Yuan cautioned it, “When you’re on duty later, you must listen carefully to their conversation, understand?”
Lan Mei nodded vigorously, meowing, “Don’t worry, Yuan Yuan, I’m very reliable.”
Ten minutes later, Xiao Xu called.
She was already at the community entrance.
“I’m coming right down.” Jiang Yuan quickly went downstairs, holding Lan Mei.
After getting into the car, Xiao Xu raised her hand and greeted Lan Mei, “Hi, Lan Mei, I’m Xiao Xu.”
Lan Mei sat on Jiang Yuan’s lap and also raised its fluffy little paw, meowing in a chipmunk voice, “Hi, Xiao Xu, I’m Lan Mei.”
It wasn’t rush hour yet at just past four o’clock, so the car drove smoothly to the mall’s underground parking lot.
Xiao Xu said while parking, “Li He’an has a Western dinner date with his girlfriend. The boss wants us to stake out the restaurant.”
At this time, there were few people in the Western restaurant, only a few tables of guests.
After discussing with Xiao Xu, Jiang Yuan decided to sit at the booth seat by the wall.
They chose a central spot, ordered their food, and ate while waiting.
Lan Mei got a bit bored waiting, so it lay down beside Jiang Yuan and fell fast asleep, conserving its energy.
It was almost six in the evening when Li He’an appeared.
He was dressed in a suit and holding flowers, drawing attention as he walked.
Li He’an had reserved a table in advance, a heart-shaped booth in the center of the restaurant.
Seeing this, Xiao Xu couldn’t help but sigh softly, “He’s really good at pleasing girls, with flowers and a heart-shaped booth.”
“I wonder how many girls he’s deceived.” Jiang Yuan glanced at his handsome face, her gaze holding a hint of coldness and disgust.
“Yeah.” Xiao Xu sighed quietly, “Hell is empty, and all the demons are on Earth.”
More than ten minutes later, a meticulously dressed woman in a pink suit arrived with a sweet smile for the date.
Jiang Yuan saw the woman’s face clearly, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Seeing her reaction, Xiao Xu asked doubtfully, “Jiang Yuan, what’s wrong?”
Jiang Yuan frowned slightly, wondering if it was a coincidence or if He Yingying had bad luck.
Last time, she prevented He Yingying from getting involved with that scumbag who had an illness, and now she’d become Li He’an’s girlfriend…
Jiang Yuan recounted He Yingying’s situation to Xiao Xu.
Xiao Xu’s eyes widened, and she subtly glanced at He Yingying, “Actually, I don’t think she has bad luck; she has *too good* luck!”
Could someone with bad luck be saved by Jiang Yuan twice?
Before He Yingying could sit down, Li He’an stood up, holding roses. His eyes, hidden beneath his glasses, which were full of schemes, were now gazing tenderly at her, “Yingying, you look so beautiful tonight.”
“Thank you.” He Yingying smiled shyly, her gaze falling on the red roses in his hand, “Are these… for me?”
“Of course.” Li He’an handed her the roses, “A flower for a beautiful lady.”
“Thank you.” He Yingying held the flowers and smelled them, “I like them very much.”
Earlier, she had been annoyed that Jiang Yuan and Fu Xiaoxiao had ruined her blind date, but now she was very grateful.
If they hadn’t made such a fuss, she wouldn’t have had the opportunity to meet an excellent and wealthy man like Li He’an.
Li He’an pulled out a stool for her, waiting with great chivalry for her to sit down.
He Yingying sat down with the flowers, gently asking, “Why are you suddenly giving me flowers?”
Li He’an sat opposite her and chuckled lightly, “Does a man need a reason to give flowers to the woman he loves? I just wanted to.”
Jiang Yuan and Xiao Xu couldn’t hear their conversation, only seeing He Yingying smiling brilliantly.
“What nonsense is this scumbag saying again? He’s coaxing that girl so happily.” Xiao Xu was so angry she gritted her teeth.
“Lan Mei.” Jiang Yuan called softly.
Lan Mei immediately responded, “Here!”
Jiang Yuan turned her head and saw the blue cat squatting, its round cat pupils filled with vigilance.
“When did you wake up?” she asked.
Lan Mei: “When you were scolding the demon.”
Jiang Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly, “It’s your turn to act.”
“Understood!” Lan Mei almost saluted with its small paw, “I guarantee the mission will be completed.”
“Go, Lan Mei!” Xiao Xu made a cheering gesture.
Lan Mei switched to its chipmunk voice and responded, “Okay!”
“Do you know who your target is?” Jiang Yuan asked in a low voice.
Lan Mei looked in Li He’an’s direction and meowed, “It’s that oily-haired male.”
Oily-haired.
Jiang Yuan glanced over, “That description is indeed accurate.”
She gently patted Lan Mei’s head, “Go.”
Lan Mei, like an agile leopard, swiftly leaped over Jiang Yuan and went out.
Its four fluffy paws landed steadily on the ground.
Lan Mei walked with a languid gait towards the heart-shaped booth, stopped beside He Yingying’s seat, and immediately lay down.
He Yingying looked down and said in surprise, “There’s a cat.”
“A cat?” Li He’an disliked cats and instinctively frowned, “Should I chase it away?”
“It’s okay.” He Yingying shook her head, “It’s just lying here, it’s not bothering me.”
“That’s good then.” Li He’an nodded and handed her the menu, “See what you’d like to eat.”
After ordering, Li He’an stared at He Yingying with a gaze so affectionate it was greasy, praising her as an unparalleled beauty.
He Yingying giggled uncontrollably, “A Cheng, you’re exaggerating!”
Listening to their conversation, Lan Mei found it incredibly boring and started yawning again.
Jiang Yuan noticed it yawning with its mouth wide open, her slender eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a sense of worry arose in her heart.
Could this little guy be about to fall asleep?
Lan Mei shook its head, trying hard to stay awake.
Li He’an reached out and held He Yingying’s hand, “Yingying, my family heard I have such an excellent girlfriend, and they all want to meet you.”
“Ah?” He Yingying’s eyelashes fluttered, and she said in surprise, “Have you told your family about us yet?”
“Yes.” Li He’an’s expression was extremely serious, “I’m pursuing you with the intention of marriage. As soon as we confirmed our relationship, I told my family.”
Hearing this, He Yingying felt deeply touched.
She was a little shy and didn’t know how to respond.
After a moment, she tucked her hair behind her ear and said softly, “I’m serious too.”
“Then are you ready to meet my family?” Li He’an looked at her expectantly.
He Yingying’s expression was hesitant, “I feel… meeting the parents now might be too soon?”
“On the contrary, I think meeting the parents now is just right.” Li He’an said slowly, “We are both serious about marriage. You’re a girl, so you can get a feel for my family situation first. If you’re not satisfied, you can still cut your losses in time.”
