Chapter 21
Good Evening, Mr President!
Blind Date (2)
Chi Yi could distinctly feel the penetrating stare directly cast toward her, causing her brain to subconsciously shrink. She buried her face even deeper without saying a word.
âMr. Chi, can I call you Brother Zuxu? Calling you Mr. Chi all the time makes us seem so distant,â Su Yunhua bravely suggested.
âHelp yourself.â
So that meant⦠he agreed to it?
âThank you, Brother Zuxu!â Su Yunhua was elated.
But Chi Yi⦠was utterly depressed!! Her small mouth incessantly and grudgingly nibbled on the straw.
Why were others allowed to call him brother while she had to call him uncle?! Was this clear evidence that she was being taken advantage of? Yet Chi Zuxu agreed to other peopleâs requests!
This meal was insipid to Chi Yi. Being caught in the middle between the two, she felt like an unnecessary person.
After almost two hours, the meal finally ended.
On the way home, Chi Yi kept her head facing towards the window without making a sound. Chi Zuxuâs expression was not any better either, his grave and stern silhouette was extremely taut.
Half an hour later, the car finally stopped in front of the villa.
Before getting off the car, Chi Yi could no longer hold it in as she spoke first and asked, âWhat do you think about my friend?â
âIn what way?â
Chi Zuxu answered indifferently.
âAs a girlfriendâ¦â
ââ¦â
Chi Zuxu did not respond to Chi Yi.
Seeing his lack of response, Chi Yi became a little anxious. âExactly what are you thinking about!â
âSo was tonightâs meal a match-making feast meticulously planned by you?â Chi Zuxu turned his head and stared coldly at Chi Yi. âIf you truly wanted me to find a girlfriend, I can find one myself. I think, compared to your friend, Su Jieyu will be more compatible with me!â
Su Jieyu?!
Sh*t!!
â⦠Are you purposely trying to make me die from anger? You know how much I hate Su Jieyu!â Chi Yi pouted unhappily.
âThen did you think I will be interested in girls like you that havenât even grown your hair to the fullest?!â Chi Zuxu roared angrily and icily.
His sudden fury left Chi Yi stunned. Realizing that his words included her as well, she instantly felt extremely indignant. Vexed, she yelled back at him, âHow do you know our hair hasnât grown? Am I always going to be a kid that will never grow up in your eyes? Chi Zuxu, I am already 18! I am an adult. Not a kid who hasnât finished growing her hair as you said!â
When she was done shouting, Chi Yi pushed open the car door and ran into the house, fuming.
âWhat happened? Didnât you both go out for seafood? Why are you all like this after returning?â Aunty Lin asked Chi Zuxu worriedly as she looked at Chi Yi heading upstairs angrily.
âIgnore her! Let her be!â Chi Zuxu answered back stoically and went up with heavy steps.
