At 8 o'clock in the evening, the centuries-old restaurant in Chengnan is overcrowded.

In the lobby, several waiters secretly looked at the figure sitting in the corner and whispered: "She only had a drink for so long, would she order the food?"

"I went to ask half an hour ago, but the person she was waiting for hadn't arrived yet."

"It's been too long. Is she really here to have a meal? Or is it a fake celebrity who comes to pose for a photo?"

As he said that, the few people looked at the corner again.

In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, the girl with long hair was wearing a new seasonal dress from the L family, facing the window sideways, looking at her dressing in her twenties. From their perspective, she could only vaguely see her side face, but the diamond table on her wrist on her side was particularly eye-catching, making people unable to take their eyes off.

At the corner, Lin Xi looked down at the time again, frowned slightly.

She just returned to China last night and was temporarily called for a blind date.

A full hour has passed since the agreed time with the blind date partner.

No matter how patient she is, she can't sit still at this time.

Just as she was about to get up, a commotion suddenly came from the door of the store. Lin Xi didn't care too much and lowered her head to take out her wallet. She had just ordered a drink and had not paid the bill yet.

Looking up, he glanced up inadvertently and happened to find that the woman who came in was wearing a skirt that was the same style as her. The next second the woman turned her head slightly. After seeing the other person's facial features, Lin Xi's breathing stopped.

Qin Yu’s fiancée!

If she is here, then Qin Yu...

Moving his stiff neck, Lin Xi's gaze fell at the door, and he could surely see the familiar figure surrounded by everyone.

The man is wearing a high-end suit and shows his noble character. It is estimated that he should be over 185 years old, with wide shoulders, narrow waist and even figure. It is in sharp contrast to the bloated boss beside him. From her perspective, he can only see his side face with clear lines on his jaw.

She subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but her eyes couldn't help but follow the other person until he disappeared at the corner of the stairs on the second floor.

"That's Qin Yu?"

"who?"

"Qin Yu, the investment banker, was founded by him. There are at least three commonly used APPs on your mobile phone that are all projects invested by their company. This is the first time I have seen him live in Beijing for so many years!"

"So young? He looks only twenty-five, right?"

"How is that possible? It will take at least thirty years. The company has been around for many years."

The guests on the table next to them were discussing Qin Yu's age fiercely.

Lin Xi was still a little dazed and replied without passing through his brain: "He is less than twenty-nine."

"No way?" The guest next to him looked up and looked at her in surprise: "What's your relationship with him? I know him?"

Lin Xi was stunned by the question.

She and Qin Yu grew up in the same courtyard. Her brother is the eldest brother among these juniors, and she is the youngest. According to her age, she has to call Qin Yu the third brother.

She was seventeen years old when she went abroad, and Qin Yu was twenty-one. His birthday was November, and he is indeed twenty-eight years old now.

It's all about relationship...that's all.

"I don't know." She shrugged and smiled: "I heard what others said."

After paying the order, she walked out quickly as if she ran away and ran into a young man. The other party's eyes lit up when he saw her.

"Is Lin Xi so? I've seen your photos, I'm Lu Bei!"

The boy in front of him was wearing black-framed glasses, his face looked a little green, and he was also wearing a black Armani suit, but it was much worse than the Qin Yu suit just now. When he was wearing it, he felt like he was pretending to be mature.

Withdrew his gaze, Lin Xi nodded without expression, "It's me."

Lu Bei smiled shyly, reacted and quickly apologized:

"That's right. I was about to arrive, but I suddenly received a call from my leader on the way and went back to deal with work."

Lin Xi didn't like his trick, "Then you should call me first to explain the situation. We can make an appointment another day. Instead of leaving me alone here, wasting time in vain like today."

Aunt said that Lu Bei is now working in the Space Administration, and his mother is the former leader of his aunt. Originally, the aunt wanted to introduce her little colleague to him, but she didn't expect that the girl broke the appointment temporarily and found her.

Now it seems that he and that girl are really born together.

One broke the appointment and the other was late. As for her... it was a true kind of injustice.

Lu Bei scratched his head awkwardly: "You haven't eaten yet, are you? Why don't we sit down and eat something first?"

Lin Xi's patience had long been exhausted, and the person upstairs was still there, so she didn't want to stay here.

He waved his hand and refused, "I just returned to China for a little while, let's go somewhere else."

Lu Bei couldn't hide his loss, but he was late first, so it was hard to force him. "Then are you going back to the courtyard? I'll take you back."

"No need to bother, I won't go back there tonight." For some reason, Lin Xi felt uneasy and inadvertently raised her head and glanced at the second floor.

——

The second floor private room of Chengnan Restaurant.

The man in the main position has not moved for a long time, and the rest of the people present dare not act rashly.

The nearest boss poured him wine attentively, "I heard that Mr. Qin has been busy with his branch recently and hasn't returned to Beijing for a while, so today I specially ordered local dishes from Beijing. The dishes in this restaurant are the craftsmanship left by the imperial chef in the palace before. Mr. Qin tasted them?"

After saying that, Qin Yu raised his narrow eyes slightly and glanced at the table casually, "I have been in poor health recently and have no appetite, so I won't eat it."

Finally, he added lightly: "Sorry."

I can't hear any apology at all.

All the old foxes present, how could they not hear the perfunctory in his words? But even so, they dare not expose it.

I finally waited until Qin Yu returned to Beijing and could not eat food, so the business had to be negotiated.

Several bosses looked at each other and just started to start their heads, their voices were interrupted by a sudden ringtone.

Behind him, the accompanying special assistant handed over the phone. After hesitating for a moment, Qin Yu got up and took the phone.

As soon as he left, the few people present looked at each other in a tentative manner, and had to look at the young woman with a delicate face on the other side of the main position.

The woman smiled and said, "The third brother will come back after answering the phone, let's eat first."

She said this and the others felt relieved. After a while, someone couldn't help asking: "Ms. Song and Qin are always around the corner. You have to remember to send us a wedding invitation!"

The woman raised her red lips, "Of course, you must be there at that time."

——

Outside the box, Qin Yu stopped by the window. He turned his head and lit a cigarette, and then he pressed down to answer the call slowly.

"Mr. Qin, Miss Lin Xi returned to China last night."

Hearing the familiar name, Qin Yu's calm face was stunned for a moment. After coming to his senses, he twisted the smoke from his fingertips and said calmly: "In the courtyard?"

The other side of the phone was silent for a few seconds, "Now, Miss Lin should be having dinner with the young man from Mayor Lu's house..."

"Have a meal?"

"Uh, blind date." The other side corrected.

Qin Yu frowned, "Where is it?"

"The Chengnan Restaurant is the one that Miss Lin always said when she was a child that the food was unpalatable and she even vomited."

It seemed as if there was something in the dark, Qin Yu subconsciously lowered his eyes and looked downstairs.

There was a "little couple" in the restaurant lobby. The girl looked a little impatient, and the boy seemed to have been apologizing.

Then, as if he was guilty, the girl secretly glanced at his place and met his gaze without any bias. She was stunned for a second, and the indifference in her eyes was quickly replaced by surprise.

Qin Yu's breathing sank, and the ink color in his eyes, as deep as a cold pool, surging. He suppressed his emotions, and the Adam's apple rolled up and down a few times. After many years, he finally called out her name again, "Lin Xi, come up."
