Lu Jingli shut up and didn't dare to say anything more.
In this situation, it's really dangerous to say anything...
On the other side, Ning Xi and Xi Shiqing had already started talking. Although they were some distance apart, the restaurant was still quite quiet and if one listened carefully, one could hear what they were talking about.
Because of his lateness, Xi Shiqing thought that out of basic courtesy, he should explain the reason to the other party, so he said, "I'm really sorry, because I saw an old man fall on the road, and I took him to the hospital, so it took some time."
Ning Xi chuckled, "Hmm... If any other man said this to me, I would definitely think that he has a problem with his IQ. Even his excuses are so insincere. But, Mr. Xi, I believe you. You really are the kind of person who would help an old lady cross the street or send a lost child home!"
Xi Shiqing burst into laughter when he heard this, "Miss Ning, do you mean that I look like a good person?"
Ning Xi nodded, "More than that! Not only is he a good person, he is also on the level of Jin Chanzi. He is Tang Monk, you know?"
Xi Shiqing was so amused by her interesting description that his eyes darkened. "Ms. Ning, you are very interesting."
Ning Xi's heart skipped a beat when she heard that. What the hell, it was the first time she saw such a special person and she couldn't help herself and actually flirted with him.
So he coughed lightly and quickly got down to business. "It's like this, Mr. Xi. I'll get straight to the point. I personally don't have any intention of going on a blind date, but my grandfather has already arranged a time for me to meet you, so I had to come here to explain the situation to you. I hope you can understand."
Xi Shiqing didn't seem angry or dissatisfied when he heard this, but something seemed to have fallen in the depths of his eyes...
Behind him, Lu Jingli pricked up his ears when he heard Ning Xi's words, and finally regained some energy, "Good job, Xiao Xixi, you knocked him out directly!~"
After hearing Ning Xi's words, Xi Shiqing immediately expressed his understanding, "I understand. Although I feel a little regretful, I respect your wishes."
Ning Xi raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this, feeling somewhat regretful? Was he interested in her
That's impossible! There shouldn't be anything about her that meets this man's aesthetic standards today? It should be just a polite remark, right? Well, this type of man, this is possible!
"So, you don't have to feel pressured. Let's just treat today's meal as an ordinary meal between friends, okay?" Xi Shiqing said.
Ning Xi was a little surprised at this moment. Although this man's appearance was not stunning, his voice was so damn nice, simply charming!
The other party had already said so, and was so cooperative without her having to say anything, so Ning Xi naturally couldn't refuse, "Of course!"
Behind him, Lu Jingli bit a piece of salmon angrily, "Oh damn! I was wrong! I thought he was a holy monk who was not interested in women, but he turned out to be a womanizer! In this case, if he was not interested, he should have just paid the bill and left without any unnecessary involvement. He actually wanted to have dinner with us, and even said that he was just a friend. This clearly shows that he has an ulterior motive!"
Lu Jingli continued to complain, and Lu Tingxiao's face was not looking good either. Xiaobao, who was admiring Aunt Xiaoxi's back, finally noticed something was wrong...
Um, why is Auntie Xiaoxi having dinner with another uncle whom she doesn’t know…
Xiaobao pursed his lips, thought for a moment, and then wrote two words on the writing board: [Date?]
