Wife, please behave yourself.

Chapter 40 Blind Date

Chapter 40 Blind Date
He stood up straight, looking into the store.

Holding a fly swatter, he swung it down with a whoosh, killing a buzzing fly on the table.

He lowered his head and blew hard.

Liu Songyan watched the fly slide off the table and then sat up straight again.

Continue to stare at the bookstores that no one visits.

"It's so boring... there's no one in the store."

Liu Wanqiu lay listlessly on the table, like a sloth that couldn't move, staring longingly at the lemon tea at her feet.

Although it wasn't refrigerated, it should be at room temperature after this long time.

Even at room temperature, this delicious lemon tea can help cool you down.

"If only we could have something to drink, we wouldn't be so bored..."

"Give."

"what? What!"

The head that was lying down suddenly lifted up.

Liu Wanqiu's eyes shone as she glanced, seemingly unintentionally, at the lemon tea at her feet.

However, when she saw her brother pull the schoolbag out from under the cashier...

Like a balloon that was just starting to swell, it suddenly deflated.

"No~ I don't want to do my homework today."

"Come to the store tomorrow too."

The girl felt all her strength drain away as her brother's calm words reached her ears, and she collapsed onto the table like a rag doll.

Raise your lower leg and use your toes to push against the stool your older brother is sitting on.

The pitch rose, making a final struggle.

"Just a little bit..."

"No."

"Humph!"

Liu Wanqiu turned her head away, angry.

She decided to ignore her own brother for the rest of the day.

The bookstore was quiet.

Apart from the buzzing of the fan that was shaking its head, there was no other sound.

"Don't be shy, it's just a meeting."

The voice coming from the doorway made the brother and sister inside the bookstore turn to look.

Hearing the sounds of pulling coming from outside the shop, a figure soon appeared in front of the two.

"Hello~"

A cheerful greeting came from Cheng Zhiyan's mouth, her left hand holding the person outside the store, while her right hand was raised high and waved vigorously towards Liu Wanqiu inside the store.

"Zhiyan!"

"Late autumn!"

The two classmates shouted at the same time, and Liu Wanqiu, who was at the cashier, immediately beamed with joy.

He jumped off the stool in a flash, walked around the cashier, and excitedly went to his friend's side.

Upon seeing this, Cheng Zhiyan immediately let go of the hand she was holding.

Arms crossed.

They hugged each other tightly.

"puff……"

"Late Autumn... I... I can't breathe..."

"Sorry, I got too excited again."

Liu Wanqiu quickly let go, realizing she had done something wrong, and stood obediently to the side.

Cheng Zhiyan, who had been given a new lease on life, hurriedly took deep breaths.

It felt like her ribs would break if she waited another second longer.

He took a few seconds to catch his breath.

Cheng Zhiyan swallowed hard and quietly moved away from her best friend.

As if introducing an important person, he raised his hands, gesturing for the other person to look outside the store.

"Ta-da! I've brought her! She happens to be on her day off today!"

"..."

Peering forward, Liu Wanqiu looked at the empty doorway.

Liu Songyan remained seated, silently watching the two making a ruckus in front of him.

"What about people?"

Coming to her senses, Cheng Zhiyan realized that the people she had brought with her had disappeared.

Stretching its head out, it rummaged aimlessly through the store.

Seeing this silly look, Liu Songyan, sitting on the stage, was speechless.

"The people you brought have just escaped."

"what?!"

It wasn't until Liu Songyan's notification sounded that Cheng Zhiyan, who was about to go around to the back of the bookshelf to look for it, realized what was happening.

Looking at the boy sitting in front of the stage, whose eyes were not visible.

He quietly moved closer to Liu Wanqiu.

She covered her mouth with her hand and asked in a low voice.

"Who is he? Isn't Uncle here?"

“He is my brother. Dad went out not long ago.”

"You've gone out?!"

Exclaiming in surprise, Cheng Zhiyan looked regretful.

After much pleading and persistence at the hospital, they finally found someone who met all the requirements.

I just wanted to bring him to meet Liu Wanqiu's father.

That's bad, the person in question isn't in the store.

"How could I be so unlucky... It just so happens that my uncle isn't in the shop..."

"It looks like she's about to get on the bus."

"what!"

The notification sound came again, and Cheng Zhiyan, who had been talking to herself, suddenly panicked.

Looking up, I saw figures already hailing taxis on the street outside the shop.

He rushed out of the store in a hurry.

"..."

In the store.

The brother and sister looked at each other.

"Your friend is really reliable."

Liu Wanqiu seemed ashamed of her friend's unreliable behavior, and lowered her head to pick at her fingers again.

"But Zhiyan didn't break her promise, she really brought the person..."

"I think it was dragged here."

Seeing his younger sister fidgeting with her hands, Liu Songyan sighed.

What on earth is going on?

Not a single one of them is smart.

"Why are you running? It's not like it's going to eat you!"

Cheng Zhiyan's voice came from outside the store again, it seemed that the poor little nurse had not been able to escape in the end.

This time, Cheng Zhiyan did not let go, and the two eventually entered the bookstore.

Liu Songyan looked at the woman who was standing there awkwardly. She was not very tall, just over 1.6 meters, and her hair was very long, reaching her waist even when tied up.

She has above-average looks, with soft eyebrows and eyes. Judging from her appearance alone, she seems like a gentle and kind person of the opposite sex.

He doesn't look very old; he seems to have just graduated from school.

He still has a strong student vibe.

Liu Songyan lowered his gaze, and something occurred to him.

Looking at the other person's body, which moved as if walking on flat ground.

Silence.

"I already told you it's not that scary, it's just a meeting."

Cheng Zhiyan only let go of her hand after making sure the other person wouldn't run away again.

He stood with his hands on his hips, speaking breathlessly.

"Her name is Liu Wanqiu, and she is my best friend in class."

"Hello, sister."

"Hello……"

Seeing that the other person had greeted her friend, Cheng Zhiyan turned her gaze to Liu Songyan, who was sitting on the stage.

"This is my good friend's older brother, his name is..."

The words were on the tip of Cheng Zhiyan's tongue, but she couldn't remember the other person's name.

She remembered her friend mentioning it before, but she hadn't really taken it to heart at the time.

"Liu Songyan, my brother's name is Liu Songyan..."

"Yes, his name is Liu Songyan."

With a reminder from her friend, Cheng Zhiyan, who had been stuck, was finally able to give her presentation.

"Hello……"

Upon seeing this, the nurse standing next to him greeted the other person.

However, her greeting went unanswered; she only saw Liu Songyan inside the station nod silently.

counts as a response.

Upon seeing this, his previously normal expression immediately fell.

Song Huaishi's already limited confidence vanished instantly, and she looked away from the man in front of her whose eyes she couldn't see.

Silently, I took my first steps to prepare to leave.

"Don't go! He's not the one we're supposed to meet!"

Seeing this, Cheng Zhiyan quickly grabbed the other person again.

Turning back to ignore Liu Songyan, the instigator, they hurriedly tried to appease him.

"The person she's meeting is her father, an uncle who's tall and extremely handsome!"

"Zhiyan, please have mercy on me... Your mother forbids us from even speaking to you..."

Song Huaishi finally couldn't hold back any longer and told the girl next to him the truth.

These past few days, the director's daughter has been acting like she's possessed.

As soon as school was over, she would run to the hospital and, as if drawing lots, grab any of the younger nurses and ask if they wanted a husband.

My colleagues have all been harassed.

Song Huaishi, who was still in her internship, was too young to be considered by the other party.

But after asking around the entire hospital, it was her turn by now.

Thinking that I could take Saturday off by making up for it, I figured I could avoid it.

Who would have thought that when he went to the hospital to pick up something he had forgotten to bring home, he was caught by Cheng Zhiyan, who was waiting at the hospital.

She tried to run away several times, but the 11-year-old Cheng Zhiyan in front of her was not as easy to fool as she had imagined.

Hearing Song Huaishi's truth, the girl named Cheng Zhiyan was not affected at all.

"I know, but what's wrong with meeting up?"

"I don't want to... I don't want to be in a relationship right now..."

"Don't be like that, Uncle is very capable!"

"Even excellence is not acceptable..."

Muttering to herself, Song Huaishi struggled to break free from the small hand that was holding her.

Hearing that the person he was to meet was the little girl's father, and judging from his brother's age, who knew how old the man really was?

You need to be at least forty years old to even get started.

Song Huaishi, who is 19 years old this year, has just reached the age to do her internship at the hospital.

She hadn't been working long before she was about to meet a man who was almost older than her father.

She would rather die than accept it.

The other person struggled more and more, to the point that Cheng Zhiyan, who was inside the store, could barely hold them back.

Clearly, the 11-year-old girl was aware of this as well.

He called out anxiously to those behind him.

"Wanqiu, grab her other hand!"

"Oh……"

One on each side, firmly holding onto Song Huaishi who was about to leave.

The steps that were originally moving suddenly became as if welded to the ground after Liu Wanqiu joined them.

Unable to move.

Song Huaishi turned around in surprise and looked at Liu Wanqiu, who had a cute appearance.

This child...how can he have so much strength...?

As an observer, Liu Songyan witnessed this farce firsthand.

Looking at the three people in front of me, it seemed like they were having a tug-of-war.

I'm glad my father didn't get involved.

"Drip."

The sound of car horns could be heard from the street outside the store.

Inside the bustling store, no one noticed this.

Song Huaishi, who was already an adult, tried her best to escape, but with Liu Wanqiu's help, she was pulled back after finally taking a step outside the store.

She felt like a pitiful woman in a TV drama at that moment.

Trapped in the mountains by bad guys.

She faces the tragic prospect of spending the rest of her life with an old and ugly man.

No, she doesn't want that.

How could I possibly go on a blind date with a man who's almost two decades older than me...?

As long as I step out of this door, as long as I shake off the two of them behind me...

Just a little bit more, just a tiny bit more...

"What...are you doing?"

A figure blocked Song Huaishi's path.

As she struggled to break free, she slowly raised her lowered face.

Looking at the scene that appeared before his eyes.

The man was wearing a white shirt with his coat draped over his right arm.
