Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yan Pianran was startled by the sudden invitation.

She was dumbfounded and it took a moment for her to understand what Yuan Xuan meant. All she saw was the strikingly handsome man in front of her. His entire body radiated a mature and elegant aura, yet it had an intense wounding power.

Years of experience had given him a mature charm that young men in their twenties could not equal.

Yuan Xuan thought that she bothered, so he frowned and said softly, “Miss Yan, if you're busy, let's do it another day?”

Yan Pianran was rather startled, as she had not expected this to happen. Therefore, she said a little excitedly, “Today is fine!”

Yuan Xuan nodded and said with a smile, “Then please wait for me until the afternoon, I need to finish up my work.”

Yan Pianran felt as if she was dreaming the entire time.

She had confessed to a man she had just met and agreed to have lunch with him.

Most importantly, the man was the one who invited her. She had heard rumors that the Third Young Master Yuan was a difficult man to approach, could it be that had finally come to his senses?

This 28-year-old “young girl” felt as though she was experiencing a late-blooming romance.

It was almost 11 o'clock when Yuan Xuan finished his final long-distance meeting. He then turned off his computer, took Mu Chenyan's photo from the table, placed it close to his lips and planted a light kiss, “Little Chenyan, good afternoon!”

The woman in the picture was smiling brightly but she would not know that this infatuated man had waited for many years…

Yan Jun had reserved a table in a hotel beforehand.

They parked their car in the parking area and Yuan Xuan opened the car door for Yan Pianran like a gentleman.

The two of them walked side by side and a few of the restaurant's customers could not resist turning around to look.

The man had an impressive presence and an outstanding aura. Whereas the woman was tall, slim and beautiful. The pair of them formed a beautiful picture when they walked together.

Yuan Xuan passed the menu to Yan Pianran and smiled lightly with the corner of his lips curled up, “Miss Yan, do you like western food?”

“Not too bad, I'm somewhat influenced by my few years studying overseas.”

Yuan Xuan nodded and thought about the few years Mu Chenyan spent in England. She constantly complained about how a piece of steak could not compare to hot pot…

Yan Pianran finished ordering and it was Yuan Xuan's turn. She noticed that Yuan Xuan had ordered two portions and was a little curious, “Are there other guests coming over later?”

Yuan Xuan passed the menu to the waiter and waved his hands towards the entrance, “Yes, he's here”

Yan Pianran turned around and saw Wu Ze walking towards them quickly.

Perhaps the man was thirsty when he arrived, as he smiled at Yan Pianran after he sat down, poured himself a cup of water and downed the entire cup. Then, he puckered his lips and spoke, “Miss Yan, what a coincidence!”

Yuan Xuan saw the surprised look on Yan Pianran's face, and he asked calmly, “You two know each other?”

Wu Ze smiled, revealing his shiny white teeth. He blinked his eye charmingly and said, “Yes!”

Yan Pianran's face suddenly turned bright red. Her previous gentle and elegant image was gone as she mumbled, “We're far more than that!”

“We're very close!” Wu Ze smiled brightly.

Yuan Xuan heard it, sighed in relief and nodded, “That's good then, I don't have to worry anymore!”

“Mr. Yuan, what do you mean?”

Yan Pianran suddenly felt something was wrong. She suppressed her anger and asked with a low voice. Then, she looked at Wu Ze a little vigilantly and asked once more, “Are you thinking about…”

“Yes, this is my brother, Wu Ze, he's also a single older man. If Miss Yan does not mind, I can introduce both of you to each other…”

“I mind!”

“I mind!”

They both spoke with one voice.

Humph!

Yan Pianran gave Wu Ze the cold shoulder.

She was born with cute features, so now that she had abandoned her “older sister” façade, she looked even cuter with an angry expression.

Wu Ze looked at Yuan Xuan and had a rough idea of what was going on. He then thought in his heart, as expected, Yuan Xuan was up to no good. He had invited him to lunch out of the blue so that he would take over for him.

He wasn't sure when Mu Chenyan would return, and the Yuan Family's Old Mistress must have been pressuring him to get married. Yuan Xuan was being driven into a corner and he could not escape this time, so he asked him for help!

Wu Ze could not help but laugh when he thought about Yan Pianran. Indeed, it would be troublesome to get on this woman's bad side.

However, since Yuan Xuan had asked for his help, he would consider it. After all, he had encountered Yan Pianran a few times and she left quite a good impression.

“Being in a relationship is all about spending time together. Since both of you are in the same profession, you'll have many common topics in the future.”

Yuan Xuan was trying his best to play cupid and he looked as though he wanted the best for both of them.

“We're in the same profession, that's why we're enemies!”

Yan Pianran had a disgusted look on her face, “You want me to be together with him? Haha!”

The woman deliberately placed emphasis on the words “haha”.

Yuan Xuan looked at Wu Ze and signaled for him take the initiative.

After all, a man should tolerate a woman even if she openly expressed her disdain. Wu Ze did not seem to be offended, instead, the handsome man smiled at Yan Pianran.

“Since we don't need to be in court today, lunch is not the time for debate. No matter how much Miss Yan hates me, can we at least finish this meal? Let's not waste Mr. Yuan's effort!”

As he spoke, Wu Ze blinked at Yuan Xuan to show that he was trying.

Yuan Xuan had figured something out from their conversation. It seemed like they had faced each other in court once and he had offended her.

Nothing good ever came out of Wu Ze's mouth. He must have offended her greatly, otherwise, she would not have lost her appetite the moment she saw him.

No wonder Wu Ze was still single at the age of 30.

Damn it!

However, Yuan Xuan felt like Yan Pianran was an excellent match for Wu Ze…

The waiter brought the prepared meal over to them on a small trolley.

Wu Ze served Yan Pianran like a gentleman as he placed her cutleries and napkin for her.

Despite how sharp-tongued Wu Ze was in court, he was, in fact, quite a gentleman.

He was not only handsome and aloof but also a gentleman. It was no surprise that he popular with women. Therefore, he had an extremely good reputation among Luo Hai's socialites.

Although Yan Pianran once took a beating from Wu Ze, he was still Yuan Xuan's friend, so she could not ruin his reputation.

Wu Ze was very friendly, and he even told Yan Pianran a few jokes. It looked as though he was the main character of this arranged marriage. However, his enthusiasm made Yan Pianran uncomfortable throughout the entire lunch.

The woman looked at Yuan Xuan from time to time with a whining look in her eyes. If Yan Pianran could electrocute someone with her eyes, she would have electrocuted Yuan Xuan just then…

“In a few days, I'll be taking a trip to Capital City!”

After they finished eating, Yuan Xuan's eyes turned dark for a moment. Then, he said in a low voice, “The both of you should keep in contact during this time!”

Yan Pianran, “…”

Did he just sell me out?

Wu Ze, “Don't worry! I won't disappoint you!”

Yan Pianran, “…”

Shameless!

After they parted ways, Wu Ze sent Yan Pianran home. On the way there, the man was overjoyed. He joked constantly and her spirit was lifted.

When they mentioned about Yuan Xuan, Yan Pianran could not help but sigh, she knew that it was an unrequited love. Even so, she did not feel anything towards Wu Ze. At most, she saw him as a friend instead of an enemy.

Wu Ze parked his car in front of Yan Pianran's house and looked at the design of the huge building. The building was built in a European style and it blended in with the beautiful surrounding country scenery. It looked solemn yet beautiful. He could not help but sigh, this ancient family had great taste.

In addition to Yan Jiangsheng who was a businessman, the majority of the Yan Family were in the education, legal, forensic, and medical professions.

Yan Pianran's parents were university professors.

It was natural for the daughter of such a family to abide by the rules. This was Wu Ze's first visit, so he did not visit her house. Therefore, he waved at Yan Pianran and cheerfully said, “Can I have your number?”

Yan Pianran was stunned and hesitated for a moment. Then, she took her phone out from her bag, unlocked it and passed it to Wu Ze, “Save it by yourself!”

Usually, under such circumstances, the girl would tell you her number and ask you to call her. Then, she would call you back after saving your number. That would happen less than fifty percent of the time.

Yan Pianran's move was a sign of sincerity.

Wu Ze took her phone and they exchanged numbers. He then smiled at Yan Pianran, “The next time we meet in court, I'll have mercy!”

“No need for that!” When Yan Pianran heard that he wanted to go easy on her, she was a little unhappy, “You're doubting my ability!”

Wu Ze laughed, and his impression of this girl grew better.

Yan Pianran had to go inside her house, so Wu Ze waved her goodbye.

He then averted his gaze and his phone suddenly rang. When he saw the number, the smile on his face froze instantly.

Wu Ze pressed the accept button and a woman's voice came from the other end of the phone, “Big Brother Wu, how are you recently?”

Wu Ze's panicking heart shuddered and he cleared his throat, “Not bad! You?”

“Me too! Recently, I've had to go to Capital City to do a few reports. You once told me that you often travel to Capital City for cases, so I'm letting you know beforehand. If you're coming over, do contact me anytime…”

Wu Ze was stunned. He immediately recalled that man saying he was about to travel to Capital City for a business trip just now.

Capital City was such a large city; it would not be easy for them to bump into each other. Words were stuck in Wu Ze's throat and he did not say anything.

It would be fate if they were to meet each other. Perhaps, it was impossible to sever all ties between the two of them…
