"Chu Chu, mom had a good friend when she was in college, but she went abroad very early. But now her son is back from abroad and said he wanted to come back to develop his career. The flight will arrive at 6:30 tomorrow afternoon. I will be busy at work tomorrow and cannot leave. Your company is close to the airport. Can you help mom pick up Aunt Su's son?" Shu's mother asked Shu Shichu.
"Six thirty?" Shu Shichu thought for a while and agreed, "Sure, I'll be off work at that time."
"That's good. I'll send you Aunt Su's son's WeChat account and you can contact him directly." Shu's mother said as she sent a QR code to Shu Shichu.
After scanning the code, Shu Shichu added her on WeChat and continued to ask her mother, "How old is Aunt Su's son? What does he look like?"
"He's 23 now, and he's very handsome, tall and long-legged. Your aunt Su sent me his photo, I'll send it to you." Shu's mother said excitedly, "I think he's much better looking than those idols on TV, you'll definitely like him."
Shu Shichu clicked on the photo sent by Shu's mother, and his eyes immediately lit up. The man in the photo was wearing a slim-fit suit that showed off his perfect body. He was tall and had long legs, and his face was handsome. He had sharp almond-shaped eyes, a high nose bridge, and thin lips. He looked like a model cut out of a fashion magazine!
Shu Shichu covered his mouth, fearing that his saliva would accidentally flow out.
When Shu's mother saw her daughter's stunning look, her eyes suddenly turned, and she pretended to ask Shu Shichu casually: "Chchu, how is it? I said your Aunt Su's son is handsome, right? Is he your type? I heard that he is still single..."
"Handsome! He's my type." Shu Shichu nodded rapidly and then said excitedly, "Single? Great!"
When Mother Shu heard this, she immediately felt that the time had come for her daughter to end her singleness and completely forget Feng Rui. She quickly encouraged him, "You think he's great, too? So you like him? That's great. Take this opportunity and take the initiative to grab such a good man. Your Aunt Su said that her son doesn't smoke, drink, or touch pornography, gambling, or drugs. He is very self-disciplined, likes to cook for himself, and is capable at work. You can imagine how rare it is to find such a good man. Good things should be kept within the family. You must hurry up and grab him. If you don't hurry up and someone else takes him away, it will be such a pity!"
When Shu Shichu saw how eagerly her mother urged her to take action, she immediately looked at her with an "I see through you" look and said, "Mom, so you are trying to trick me? You have been wanting to get me and Aunt Su's son together for a long time, right?"
Seeing that she was exposed, Mother Shu simply stopped pretending and nodded directly, "Yes, Mom and your Aunt Su talked about our respective children before, and found out that you and her son are both single, of similar age, and will return to China to develop. Isn't this just right? Your Aunt Su's son is really good. Mom won't hurt you. You should be friends with him first, and then slowly consider whether he is suitable to be a boyfriend. Let things develop naturally..."
Shu Shichu resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and because Aunt Su's son was indeed very handsome, he asked, "What's his name?"
"Call him Lu Heng." said Shu's mother.
"Lu Heng..." Shu Shichu read the name and sighed, "The handsome guy even has a nice name."
Since he was going to pick up a handsome guy, Shu Shichu was very active. His efficiency increased greatly when he worked in the afternoon and he was in high spirits. Sure enough, scientific research was right. Looking at beautiful women more often can not only make people happy, but also effectively improve work efficiency.
After get off work, Shu Shichu couldn't wait to take a taxi to the airport. Fortunately, the route to the airport was not during the rush hour, otherwise she would have to be stuck in traffic for most of the day and would definitely miss the airport pick-up time.
Shu Shichu arrived at the airport before Lu Heng's flight arrived. While hurriedly walking towards the pick-up area, he contacted Lu Heng on the phone.
"Hello? Shu Shichu?" A male voice as deep and magnetic as a cello suddenly broke into Shu Shichu's ears, making Shu Shichu tremble all over, as if an electric current was running through her body, making her heart tremble!
This man is so attractive! Shu Shichu immediately replied in his most gentle voice: "I am Shu Shichu, you are Lu Heng, right? Have you got off the plane now?"
"I'm already down, right at the exit." Lu Heng stunned Shu Shichu's ears with his sexy voice again.
"I'll be there soon, just wait for me." Shu Shichu ran towards the exit.
"Okay." Lu Heng responded.
Soon, Shu Shichu saw Lu Heng. The moment she saw him, an idiom "a crane standing out among a flock of chickens" popped up in her mind. Lu Heng's height was too advantageous. He was almost 1.9 meters tall, a head taller than the people around him, which made him stand out at once. Shu Shichu didn't need to look for him, she could see him at a glance.
"Lu Heng?" Shu Shichu smiled brightly at Lu Heng. "I'm Shu Shichu, my mother is Wang Ying, your mother's good friend. My mother is not free today, so she asked me to pick you up. I hope you don't mind."
"No." Lu Heng nodded to her, "If Auntie is really busy, I don't need anyone to pick me up."
"That won't work. You just returned to China and you are unfamiliar with the place. How can you not have someone to pick you up?" Shu Shichu said with a smile, "Where is your luggage? Let me help you get it."
"No, I only have this one suitcase." Lu Heng shook his head.
Finally getting on the car to go home, Shu Shichu said to Lu Heng: "You just sat on the plane for more than ten hours, you must be very tired. My mother said that she will not go to the hotel to welcome you today. She bought some vegetables and cooked them at home. After dinner, you can rest early."
"Auntie, you are too polite. Actually, there is no need to welcome the guests, let alone cook for myself. It will be too much trouble for you." Lu Heng said politely.
"It's not a trouble, it's not a trouble. My mother cooks home-cooked meals. Besides, this is your first time back in China. Given the relationship between my mother and Aunt Su, isn't it my duty to treat you well?" Shu Shichu said quickly.
The two chatted and soon returned to Shu's house. Shu's mother happened to come back from buying vegetables. When she saw Lu Heng sitting in the living room, she said happily: "You are Xiao Heng, right? You are so handsome and talented. You inherited your mother's good looks."
Lu Heng quickly stood up and greeted Shu's mother, saying, "Auntie, you are too kind. You are naturally beautiful and look young. Standing together with your daughter, you look like a pair of sisters."
“Hahaha… you are such a good talker…” When Shu’s mother heard what he said, she laughed out loud.
Shu Shichu couldn't help but look at him with admiration; it turned out that he was quite good at coaxing people.
