This is Xu Zhiyi's first blind date.
She was not happy to go.
Her father's old colleague insisted on the matchmaking, saying that the man was attracted to her and asked him to talk about the match.
Her father asked her to go, but she didn't dare say no.
The blind date is at the coffee shop on the first floor of Xiaohonglou, and we will meet at 4 p.m.
The man decides.
The Little Red Building is very famous in the Acropolis and is located at the southwest corner of the Drum Tower.
The Drum Tower is the iconic ancient building of the Acropolis. With it as the center, it radiates out to the four streets in the southeast and northwest, forming the most prosperous commercial area in the old city.
The Little Red Mansion is a quiet place amidst the bustle and has an elegant environment. It is a favorite place for blind dates among wealthy people.
Xu Zhiyi was born and raised in Aicheng, but he had never been to such a high-end place.
As soon as she entered the coffee shop, the abundant air-conditioning hit her, and the hair on her arms stood up instantly.
The high-end and luxurious environment made her uneasy, fearing that she would be laughed at if she was not careful.
The matchmaker introduced the man's general situation and showed her photos. He was fairly decent.
His name is Wen Xuezhi. He is 27 years old, one and a half years older than Xu Zhiyi. He works at Aicheng Electric Power Company. His parents are also middle-level leaders in the electric power system.
The family's income is high and their conditions are quite good.
It's just that she really has no feelings.
Wen Xuezhi had been waiting for her at the door early in the morning. When he saw her, his eyes seemed to be glued to her, and the corners of his mouth never closed.
This kind of blind date is simple to say the least.
She would sit down later, say a few polite words to him, find an opportunity to slip away, and when she got home, she would tell her father that she was not interested and that the matchmaker would help spread the word.
To her surprise, Wen Xuezhi's mother also came.
In a blind date with parents, is the man a mama's boy?
In short, things cannot be simple once the elders take action.
You have to be careful, success or failure is secondary. If you are said to have lost your upbringing, you will lose the face of your parents.
Her father is a very face-conscious person.
Xu Zhiyi said hello cautiously, sat down, and looked at his phone. It was just 4 o'clock.
Wen Xuezhi's mother was lean, well-dressed, with a smile on her face, but her eyes were cold, shining, and a little mean.
She was examining Xu Zhiyi.
The feeling is exactly the same as the mother-in-law who is picky about her daughter-in-law in the TV series.
Xu Zhiyi forced a smile and remained silent, as if he was sitting on pins and needles.
The waiter handed the menu to the three of them. Xu Zhiyi opened it and was surprised.
Ridiculously expensive.
The names of drinks and food on the menu were fancy and were written in Chinese. She couldn't figure out what they were. When she saw a picture of peach juice, she ordered it directly.
Hearing the drink she ordered, Wen Xuezhi's mother chuckled and showed an "as expected" expression, with a look of arrogance on her face.
Wen Xuezhi was very attentive, "Teacher Xu, why don't you go to Xiaohonglou to drink some peach juice? The elephant shit coffee here is very famous. I'll order you a cup and you can try it later."
Xu Zhiyi's eyebrows jumped.
What the hell?
Elephant shit? coffee?
yUe!
The waiter took the order and left.
Wen Xuezhi's mother gave a high-profile smile and said, "Is this your first time at Xiaohonglou?"
Xu Zhiyi nodded obediently, "Yes, Auntie."
"It's no wonder. With your salary as a teacher and your family's financial conditions, you really can't afford such expensive things. Xiao Xu has never seen this kind of world, so it's normal."
Xu Zhiyi's smile was a bit unbearable.
Before she could think of a reply, Wen Xuezhi glared at his mother and quickly answered:
"It doesn't matter, Teacher Xu, my salary is high. After one year, I can earn more than 200,000 yuan from miscellaneous things. It will increase in the future, and my parents will get even more. If we become successful, I will give you my salary. If you want to buy Anything is possible. As long as you like it, you can drink as much coffee as you like in the Little Red Mansion."
Xu Zhiyi's pupils dilated slightly, and the unhappiness in his heart was suddenly transferred.
It is said that the income from the power system is high, but it is not a rumor.
In a city like Acropolis, the annual income is more than 200,000, which is indeed high.
Her father has been a teacher for nearly 30 years. He has a full professional title and is still a special teacher. His monthly salary is less than 10,000 yuan.
Wen Xuezhicai has been working for five years and her income is more than double that of her father.
He was refuted by his son at the beginning. His mother slapped him hard on the arm and scolded:
"Shut up, what did I tell you when I came here? Do you want a wife?"
Wen Xuezhi stared at Xu Zhiyi, grinned and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes."
"If you want, just listen to me later and don't interrupt!"
He nodded reluctantly under the fucking glare.
When looking at Xu Zhiyi, Wen Xuezhi's mother raised a fake smile on her face and asked: "Xiao Xu, how tall are you?"
Xu Zhiyi: "1.66 meters."
His mother lowered her eyelids, scanned her from feet to head, and pretended to have an unsatisfactory look on her face, "The size is okay, barely enough for my son."
Xu Zhiyi resisted curling his lips and glanced at Wen Xuezhi.
Wen Xuezhi curled his lips and muttered to his mother:
"Mom, are you talking nonsense? You don't know how tall I am? I'm only 5 centimeters taller than others. If she wears high heels..."
"Shut up!"
His mother gouged him out, looking like she hated iron.
Huh?
This Wen Xuezhi is a bit unexpected.
Xu Zhiyi hasn't said a few words since entering the coffee shop. She is a slow-moving person and talks less in front of strangers.
Seeing the mother and son in front of her like this, she didn't want to say anything more.
When she looked at Xu Zhiyi again, the fake smile on Wen Xuezhi's mother's face became even faker.
Xu Zhiyi tilted his head slightly to the left, looked at her, and listened quietly.
"Xiao Xu, the university you went to is really bad. It's the worst normal college in the province. You repeated it for a year, and your college entrance examination score is just above the second line. My son is a recent graduate of the 211 Electric Power School. The academic qualifications of the two of you are The gap is a bit big.”
"mom!"
Xu Zhiyi looked sideways at Wen Xuezhi.
"I don't like overachieving girls because they are too strong. I like pretty and gentle girls like Teacher Xu who make people feel at ease."
"Xiao Xu."
Xu Zhiyi's head moved to the left.
"Xiao Xu, you are a teacher, but you are a rural teacher. If you become my son, my family will have to work hard to transfer you to the city."
"mom."
Xu Zhiyi's head moved to the right.
"Teacher Xu is different from ordinary rural teachers. She belongs to the rural master's program and has been working in the countryside for three years. This year she will go to Hangzhou to study for one year. She will graduate with a master's degree in education. There is no problem in moving to the city. , there is no need for our family at all.”
The mother and son were quarreling back and forth.
Xu Zhiyi's head swings back and forth like an old-fashioned pendulum.
The blind date evolved into a cross talk show between mother and son.
Xu Zhiyi seemed to be an outsider, a little confused by the situation in front of him.
"Everyone, excuse me, your drinks are ready."
The waiter is serving drinks.
The mother and son stopped, glared at each other, then turned their heads to each other and ignored each other.
The scene in front of Xu Zhiyi was incredible.
She and her brother would never dare to contradict her mother like this, because her father would break their legs.
"Your drinks are here, please use them slowly."
Before leaving, the waiter carefully added:
"Sorry, please remind everyone, please speak softly, it may affect the customers next to you, thank you."
Xu Zhiyi looked around and saw that there were indeed many people looking at them.
She laughed dryly and nodded apologetically to the waiter.
The mother and son turned back angrily and each picked up their coffee cups.
Xu Zhiyi looked at the steaming shit coffee, which was dark, and resolutely picked up the peach juice next to it.
"Hey, hey, Mom, Mom, look, look, is the person sitting diagonally opposite Octavia?"
Wen Xuezhi's mother immediately put down her coffee cup and looked over. Her eyes suddenly widened, "Yes, it's him."
Mother and son immediately stuck together, stretched out their goose necks, and started gossiping.
"He seems to be on a blind date too."
"Yes, I didn't expect that a big shot like him would go on a blind date."
"Why can't he go on a blind date? The domineering president can't easily find the wife he likes."
"Look at how handsome they are and how successful they are in their careers. They are easier to find than you."
"That's not necessarily the case. If you look at the person he's dating, he's not as good-looking as mine."
"My partner has such an aura. She looks like a strong woman at first glance. Can it be the same?"
Xu Zhiyi: "..."
Are you polite?
She was shocked again by the mother and son.
Driven by curiosity, she slowly poked her head out and looked diagonally across, meeting a pair of eyes unexpectedly.
Those eyes were clear and deep.
For a moment, Xu Zhiyi lost his mind.
