Chapter 916: Chapter 918: A Serious Conversation
Qian Huahua had already gone to such lengths, yet she still felt humiliated by Xiao Yifei. However, she maintained a smile, slowly stood up, and said, “Doctor Xiao, why are you so timid? I was just testing you. I heard from my dad that you’re a rare kind of guy, and it seems my dad has good taste after all.”
“You aren’t just pretending to be indifferent to because you’re scared of my dad’s authority, are you? I feel like I have quite the charm, so why aren’t you even willing to look at more than once? Do you think I’m not attractive? No charm?” Qian Huahua persistently asked.
Xiao Yifei thought to himself, what the heck was wrong with Qian Huahua today? They’d barely had any interaction—just once in the mall—and now she’s acting like she’s taken the wrong dicine or sothing, or maybe President Qian sent her to test him. Today’s situation was just too bizarre.
“Miss Qian, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. In my eyes, I think my girlfriend is the most beautiful. In the eyes of those who like you, you are the most attractive. Miss Qian, I have a eting to attend shortly, so I’ll be leaving first. Don’t forget to close the door when you leave.”
With those words, Xiao Yifei left.
It was the first ti Qian Huahua encountered soone who rejected her so outrightly. It seems not all n are bad with won, and her father’s judgnt was indeed astute. It’s just a pity the guy already has a girlfriend, and she didn’t an anything by coming today.
It was just that her father kept going on about how great Xiao Yifei was at ho, and Qian Huahua couldn’t listen to it anymore, so she wanted to test if Xiao Yifei was really as her father said.
In the evening, after Xiao Yifei picked up Tang Rong to go ho, he said, “I really have to apologize for the past few days. I’ve been busy with other matters and haven’t given you much attention. But now the work is finally over, and I can spend ti with you properly.”
“Xiao Yifei, why didn’t you tell when such a big thing happened? What do you take for? You almost ended up in the Police Departnt, and you didn’t even tell ?” Tang Rong said with a serious look on her face.
Seeing Tang Rong’s serious expression, Xiao Yifei knew it was ti for a solemn discussion today.
“I knew for sure I wouldn’t get in, so that’s why I didn’t tell you. Look, I’m standing here with you now! Besides, telling you would have just made you anxious and unable to work peacefully. My existence is to ensure you have a happy day every day,” Xiao Yifei explained earnestly.
“But you can’t use the pretext of ‘it’s for my good’ to keep everything from . Didn’t we agree when we first got together to share everything without reservations, to communicate any issues on ti? But you’re not doing any of that now, and I know nothing about what’s happening in your life,” Tang Rong said, trying to keep her tone calm.
“It’s true that what I did was wrong because I didn’t want you to worry about my affairs. The most important thing is everything is resolved now, and that’s enough,” Xiao Yifei said.
“Alright, since that’s how you feel, let’s just leave the past in the past. I won’t hold onto it anymore, and you don’t have to tell anything in the future,” Tang Rong repeatedly told herself not to get angry or argue, but she couldn’t hold back.
“Rongrong, please don’t be mad. I promise that no matter what happens in the future, I will tell you as soon as possible,” Xiao Yifei said. Finally having so free ti today, he didn’t want to waste it on arguing, so he proactively apologized.
Tang Rong saw he admitted his fault, and she wasn’t mad anymore. Changing her tone, she said, “I’m not really angry. It’s just that when I think about how I argued with you during your busiest ti and even doubted your love for , I feel like such a jerk. I couldn’t help but add trouble at a crucial ti instead of helping you.”
“When the girlfriend is unhappy, it’s certainly because I did sothing wrong. I’m not doing my job as a boyfriend right. Oh well, the past is the past. Let’s not dwell on it. Let’s watch a movie now!” Xiao Yifei swiftly concluded the topic as he was really moved by Tang Rong’s understanding.
And so, the two quickly reconciled. Xiao Yifei was not the type who liked or was good at arguing because he didn’t enjoy the atmosphere that followed. Both of them wanted to make up, but he didn’t know how to break that awkward tension. Apologizing was always a difficult thing. Thus, Xiao Yifei was very skilled at extinguishing any potential argunts before they could flare up.
In the evening, Xiao Yifei received a call from Hu Jingtang: “Xiao Yifei, you truly lived up to my expectations. Do you have ti tomorrow? I’ll treat you to a al. If you want to bring soone along, feel free to!”
Xiao Yifei was overjoyed to receive Hu Jingtang’s dinner invitation. After all, the als at Hu’s place were really delicious.
“I’ll be free all day tomorrow. When would be the best ti for to co over?” Xiao Yifei asked.
“Co over just before noon. Once you arrive, we can start eating,” the other party replied.
After hanging up, Xiao Yifei excitedly told Tang Rong, “Rongrong, rember that old Chinese dicine practitioner I ntioned to you? He just invited us to dinner at his place tomorrow. The food at their place is just so good.”
“Since you’ve praised their food more than once, I definitely have to try it tomorrow.”
She started getting ready early in the morning, first changing into an outfit, and just before they were about to leave, she asked Xiao Yifei, “Is this outfit too casual? Does it give the impression that I don’t take this al seriously?”
“Not at all, I think it’s perfect. You look good in anything. We should get going. If we wait any longer, we’ll hit traffic,” Xiao Yifei replied, feeling that Tang Rong looked great already and it was just a regular al, nothing to make too formal.
But Tang Rong still wasn’t satisfied. She went back to her room to change into another outfit, and as ti ticked by, Xiao Yifei didn’t dare to urge her, worrying he might upset her again.
Tang Rong took it so seriously because it was the first ti Xiao Yifei was introducing her to his circle of friends, and the other party was an elder. Tang Rong felt like she was going to et his parents, worried she might say sothing wrong.
Finally, they managed to arrive at Hu Jingtang’s before alti. After arriving, Xiao Yifei first introduced everyone, “Mr. Hu, this is my girlfriend, Tang Rong. And this is Mr. Hu, whom I’ve often ntioned at ho, he has helped greatly.”
“Hello, Mr. Hu. Xiao Yifei has talked about you many tis to , saying how good the food at your place is. So, I ca especially today to try it,” Tang Rong said politely.
“Xiao Yifei, you’re a lucky guy, finding such a good girlfriend. You must cherish her,” Hu Jingtang said, patting Xiao Yifei’s shoulder.
With that, they all went inside, and the lunch was almost ready. Once Xiao Yifei and Tang Rong arrived, they started eating.
