CHAPTER 468

After standing in front of the restaurant for a while, Jiang Meilin did not notice that she had reached the ride that was waiting for her. It was when the chauffeur called her out that she regained her senses.

"Madam, where are you going?" The man asked politely.

Jiang Meilin paused in her steps and turned to him. She blinked as she noticed that she was a few steps away from the car.

"Ahem! I was too lost in my thoughts," she chuckled.

The chauffeur smiled and nodded. "Please, get in, madam. You might catch a cold if you stay out too long," he said.

"Alright."

Just as Jiang Meilin was about to step into the back passenger seat of the car, someone called her name. The voice was deep and one that she was familiar with.

Tilting her body to her left, she sighed and rolled her eyes. "Hello, Zhao Fu."

"Hi," Zhao Fu waved at her with a wide grin before taking not too hurried steps toward her. "It is nice seeing you here. I was just passing by and saw you."

"Oh, stop it, Zhao Fu. I know you have been following me," Jiang Meilin glared at him.

"Ahem! Was I that obvious?" Zhao Fu awkwardly scratched the back of his head.

"I saw you standing outside the hotel. I just pretend that I did not know. So, what do you want?" She asked.

"Well... Are you free now? Like do you have time to spare for me?" Zhao Fu asked with a little hint of expectation in his brown eyes.

Jiang Meilin lifted her left hand a bit. She gazed calculatingly at the black wristwatch on her wrist before returning her gaze to him.

"I have time but what fit?" She eyed suspiciously.

"That is great. I want us to have lunch together," Zhao Fu quickly said.

"..."

Seeing the awkward look Jiang Meilin was shooting at him, he cleared his throat and rephrased his words.

"Ahem! Mei, would you like to have lunch with me?"

"Zhao Fu, it is still an hour before the afternoon and you are already talking about lunch. I never knew you were a foodie," Jiang Meilin said before letting out a short chuckle.

"Well, if you go out with me, you can get to know more about me," Zhao Fu shamelessly blurted out.

Jiang Meilin immediately stops laughing. She averted her eyes from his to hide the faint blush that crept us her cheek.

"So?" Zhao Fu dragged the words hinting to her that he was waiting for her reply.

He prayed deep down that she would say yes. Zhao Fu had decided to ask her out today. But on getting to the hotel, he saw that she was already going out.

So he settled for just following her to where ever she was going. Now that she was done, he quickly grabbed the chance.

"Alright then. I suppose I can eat lunch with you. I need to clear my negative thoughts." With good ones anyway.

She said the last part in her mind. She did not want to say it out loud or else Zhao Fu's head would swell and he might even go as far as using it to his advantage.

"Thank God," Zhao Fu muttered under his breath.

"Send me the address of the place. I will meet you there," Jiang Meilin suddenly said.

"Uhm about that... I think– No. I want you to come with me."

"Hit? But why?" Jiang Meilin asked.

"Because I planned to pick you up from the hotel and then drop you wherever you want when we are done with the outing," he explained. "I already planned it," he quickly added.

Jiang Meilin sighed when she heard his last sentence. She already knew that once this man standing before opened something, he must follow it. If he did anything other than his open, he might flop.

"Alright, fine. Xue, you can go without me," she told the chauffeur.

"But elder master Jiang said I should take you to wherever you want to go," the chauffeur, Xue said.

"Tsk. Tell that old man that his daughter is with me. Hurry on, now," Zhao Fu shooed the chauffeur away like a mother chasing her son to the market.

The driver and Jiang Meilin we're stuck speechless by his attitude. Jiang Meilin could only shake her head.

"Just tell my father that I went out with a friend. If he asks who it is, just tell him not to worry," Jiang Meilin instructed the chauffeur.

"Alright, madam. Please take care," Xue said before he left in the car.

"Now, shall we?" Zhao Fu held out his hand for her to find.

"Stop being so dramatic and let's go. Your actions are already making me hungry," Jiang Meilin said before walking ahead of him.

Zhao Fu chuckled as walked in large strides to reach her. Before she could utter a word, he held her hand and swung it lightly.

Niang Meilin could only sigh a bit she enjoyed his warm palm against hers. It brought back a good nostalgic feeling in her.

~In a shopping mall~

After they visited the hospital, on their way, Bai Renxiang suddenly remembered that she wanted to buy a new set of warmer clothes for Li Xiaojin.

So, she asked the driver to take them to a shopping mall instead.

"Jin, what colour do you think would suit Xiaojin best? This red or this black?" Bai Renxiang held two different sweaters in both hands.

"I think both would be fine," Li Fengjin answered.

"You keep saying both for everything," Bai Renxiang sighed. "I prefer black because of the fur. I will be cute on Xiaojin."

"Why ask me if you already prefer one?"

"Well, because I am not the only parent that he has," Bai Renxiang replied.

Li Fengjin chuckled as he shook his head. "Fine. I choose black. The red looks too tacky anyway. We should buy beanies too."
