"What do you guys want to eat tonight?"
After they finished their manicures, Luofeng, who had been observing for a while, took Duanmu Yunji and Qin Rubing by the hand, one on each side.
Duanmu Yunji was the first to speak up. "Bingbing, what would you like to eat? After all, you had to endure that disastrous blind date today—I feel for you."
"...." Ye Bing indicated it was too much for her.
Luofeng teased, "Ye Bing, you get to decide today."
After thinking it over, Ye Bing said, "Let’s go for barbecue. I’m going to channel this sadness into my appetite."
"No problem at all." Duanmu Yunji nodded.
Qin Rubing naturally had no objections.
Luofeng asked, "Do you have a particular barbecue place in mind, or any recomndations?"
"I’ve been to a good one opposite SKP!" Ye Bing said.
「A mont later.」
Ye Bing led everyone to the barbecue restaurant, explaining, "This Black Bull Barbecue is a celebrity hotspot. The quality of the dishes is up to standard, they offer waiter assistance for grilling throughout, and the prices are relatively favorable."
A celebrity hotspot? Isn’t it Big Green Bull?
Inside Black Bull Barbecue, Ye Bing specifically said, "Yunji, can I borrow your boyfriend for a mont? I need to make a video call to my dad with him to prove that I went on a date today and don’t have a fear of n, so he can finally let up on ."
Duanmu Yunji readily agreed, "No problem."
She stood up and promptly switched places with Ye Bing.
After swapping seats, Ye Bing sat next to Luofeng. She took the initiative, saying, "Luo the Immortal, in a mont, you just need to say hello to my dad, and I’ll handle the rest. I’m afraid you might slip up."
"No problem." Luofeng nodded. He was too lazy to speak anyway.
Ye Bing first checked the front cara, simulating the upcoming call scenario.
Through the cara, Ye Bing noticed a problem and edged a bit closer to Luofeng. "Since we’re going to pretend to be a couple, we need to act closer."
What? Such a request? Fine then. Luofeng conceded that taking a small loss was no big deal. After all, isn’t it said that to be taken advantage of is a blessing? Besides, she’s just a minor beauty, not a great one, right?
Ye Bing asked Duanmu Yunji and Qin Rubing, "Is it okay if I hold your boyfriend’s arm?"
"No problem," Duanmu Yunji nodded.
Qin Rubing also gave her permission.
Ye Bing imdiately grasped Luofeng’s arm.
Luofeng instantly updated his appraisal of Ye Bing in the System.
Approximately what level? A B-class building?
Ye Bing took another look at the two of them through the front cara. After ensuring there were no issues, she finally made the WeChat video call to her father.
Ye Bing preempted, "Dad, this is my boyfriend. We’re having dinner right now and will probably be back late. Oh, Dad, let introduce my boyfriend. My boyfriend..."
Just as Ye Bing was about to introduce Luofeng, Luofeng was also ready to greet Ye Bing’s dad.
However, Ye Long cut in directly, "Hello, Mr. Luo. I’m Ye Bing’s father, Ye Long of Wanlong Construction. It’s a pleasure to et you."
Damn it! Ye Bing and Luofeng were both stunned speechless.
So, Ye Bing’s dad knows Luofeng?
Alright then.
Ye Bing’s situation was truly tragic.
Not only did her blind date know Luofeng, but her dad too? What’s the point of pretending then?
Actually, Ye Bing and the others had made a mistake from the start.
Why pick just anyone to pretend to be a boyfriend? Choosing soone as famous as Luofeng? Maybe you should consider asking Jay Chou to pretend to be your boyfriend too. Then who wouldn’t recognize him?
Duanmu Yunji and Qin Rubing started to grin. If Ye Bing hadn’t still been on the call, they probably would have burst into laughter. Could Ye Bing possibly be any more unfortunate?
"Dad, do you know Luofeng?" Ye Bing said anxiously.
"Did you forget? I’ve told you about Mr. Luo before. In the Capital City, he’s a well-known figure. Why would you think I don’t know him?" Ye Long said.
Luofeng politely responded, "Uncle Ye, I’m so sorry for pretending to be Ye Bing’s boyfriend. We just hoped to reassure you that Ye Bing doesn’t have a fear of n and that she’s heading in the right direction."
Ye Long replied courteously, "That’s good then. I was quite worried about her."
"Dad!" Ye Bing complained.
"Alright, since you’re dining with Mr. Luo, I won’t disturb you. Rember to co ho early. Mr. Luo, thank you for taking care of Ye Bing," Ye Long said.
"It’s no trouble at all, Uncle Ye," Luofeng said.
After exchanging pleasantries, they ended the call.
Duanmu Yunji and Qin Rubing imdiately burst out laughing.
"Hahaha, this is hilarious!" Duanmu Yunji laughed unabashedly.
Qin Rubing, though not as boisterous, was smiling gently and added, "It really is funny. Bingbing, why are things always so tough for you?"
Ye Bing was in despair. What could she do? She was simply beyond complaining.
Actually, Luofeng was quite desperate too. His task had been to pretend to be Ye Bing’s boyfriend.
But now that the pretense wasn’t successful, did that an the task was a failure?
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for successfully pretending to be Ye Bing’s boyfriend and helping her resolve her blind date crisis.]
Duanmu Yunji’s satisfaction: 100%.
Qin Rubing’s satisfaction: 100%.
Ye Bing’s satisfaction: 100%.
Task reward: An advanced version Copper Futures market trend information card for the next thirty days.
Damn it? What does that an?
Right. The focus is on solving the blind date crisis, isn’t it? Who cares if soone recognizes you or not? Is there any need to worry about such things? It’s not as if being recognized prevents solving the blind date crisis, right?
Luofeng had almost fallen into a misconception.
But now Luofeng figured nothing else mattered. In his hands, he had acquired an information card for the Copper Futures market!
「Later that evening.」
Around nine o’clock that evening, Luofeng drove his Rolls-Royce, with Duanmu Yunji in the co-pilot seat, and Qin Rubing and Ye Bing sitting in the back.
First, they dropped Ye Bing off at her ho.
Ye Bing’s family circumstances were quite good.
Her family owned a villa in Wudao, which Luofeng estimated to be worth over 50 million.
After dropping Ye Bing off at her front door, Duanmu Yunji moved to the back seat to keep Qin Rubing company.
She and Qin Rubing whispered to each other in the back, and it was unclear what they were discussing.
Luofeng could vaguely hear that it was related to Ye Bing...
