Noticing Song Yuanxi's nervous expression caused Qiao Lian to clench her fists nervously as well .
A strange feeling of anticipation on behalf of Song Yuanxi began to blossom within Qiao Lian .
She fervently hoped that the man that was about to show up was a decent person .
She hoped that Song Yuanxi would not walk away disappointed, like she did so many years ago .
She believed that Song Yuanxi, like her, would not care about the looks of the man that was going to show up .
She quietly kept staring forward as time passed slowly by .
Only after a long while did she notice that someone beside her had fixed his gaze on her .
She turned her head . When her eyes met Shen Liangchuan's cool gaze, she froze momentarily .
He had a complicated look in his eyes, and had an unfathomable expression on his face as he scrutinized her . His scrutiny made her feel as though this man was trying to understand her thoroughly .
There was an awkward silence in the car .
Finally, she could not stop herself from breaking the silence by saying, “Tell me . What do you think about Yuanxi's decision to meet this person?”
Shen Liangchuan looked at her, processed her words and lowered his head, saying, “How should I know . ”
Qiao Lian: …
How could she continue the topic?
She looked forward again and said, “I hope that whoever arrives is a dapper and handsome teenager . After all, every woman has always dreamed of a Prince Charming!”
When she finished speaking, Shen Liangchuan looked at her and said, “Hopeless idiot . ”
His sharp tongue and look of disdain reminded her of Zi Chuan .
She did not know why, but recently she had been linking the two men together .
That was because these two men were extremely similar in some ways .
As she stared blankly into space, she saw Shen Liangchuan turn his head around irritatedly . Suddenly, his gaze darkened and he said, “He's arrived . ”
Qiao Lian followed the direction of his gaze and her eyes immediately brightened . “He's really here!”
The man who arrived seemed rather normal and was wearing a pair of glasses . Due to the distance, they could not see the man's looks clearly . However, his clothes looked tidy and he looked reliable .
Song Yuanxi blushed a lot and cautiously shook the man's hand . Then, the couple sat down next to each other .
They chatted with each other in the cafe, as Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan sat in the car and watched them from afar .
The man seemed quite proactive . Each time he spoke, Song Yuanxi would immediately start laughing .
Then, she would shyly lower her head and touch her hair .
The man leaned forward . His expression clearly indicated that he was extremely interested in Song Yuanxi, and she got even more shy . Her timid expression would make any man want to protect her if they saw it, right?
Qiao Lian saw the man waving his hand to summon a waiter .
They ordered several cakes and pastries, and chatted with each other as they ate .
The man seemed to really care for Song Yuanxi . He was passionate and animated . Even from afar, she could tell that their conversation was probably interesting indeed .
Except…
Looking at the man's height, it seems that his height was just about the same as Yuanxi's . Wasn't he just a tad too short?
However, she should not judge a person based on their appearance .
At least this guy looked polite, reliable and not too sketchy .
Qiao Lian lowered her eyes . She felt that Song Yuanxi's luck was much better than hers .
That fateful day so many years ago, her past self had also stupidly waited there .
When there were only five minutes left until Zi Chuan's promised arrival time, her phone started ringing . She picked up the call .
The person on the other line was just her friend, asking about her well-being . After chatting for a while, she remembered that Zi Chuan was about to arrive and thus found a convenient excuse to hang up the phone . She looked at the time again . He must be almost here, right?
