Wu You temporarily stayed at Xiao Yifei’s place. Although her illness had been cured by Xiao Yifei, her overall health still wasn’t great. She needed to rest and wasn’t suited to running about outside, so Xiao Yifei certainly couldn’t let Wu You follow Buddha around on his random wanderings.
Furthermore, Zhou Meifeng also liked Wu You very much, so she was very reassured with Wu You staying at Xiao Yifei’s place.
After seeing his daughter’s illness cured, Buddha finally felt at ease. He returned to the hotel that Xiao Yifei had booked for them to drink with White Bear. For such a happy occasion, how could there be no alcohol!
Xiao Yifei took a good few days of rest at home after Buddha left. The toll on his body had indeed been tremendous.
That day, Xiao Yifei was staring blankly at the keys to his villa. He had bought the villa quite a while ago but apart from that first visit to check it over, he hadn’t gone back since.
Although he was eager to move into the villa soon, he knew his very first property had to be well decorated. However, after much indecision, Xiao Yifei still hadn’t started the work.
It wasn’t a matter of money–he still had quite a sum in his accounts. He hadn’t started the renovation because it needed a good design first, and Xiao Yifei didn’t trust those decoration companies out there. Moreover, he didn’t want to bother Chief Wang or Zhang Ming with such minor issues.
So, this matter kept being put off, but Xiao Yifei really wanted to move into the villa soon, hence his dilemma.
Xiao Yifei put the keys back in his pocket, sighing helplessly, "Why is it so hard to find a decent designer!"
He changed his clothes and went downstairs, wanting to take a walk and relax. As he reached the bottom of the stairs, he’d only taken a few steps when he saw an old lady suddenly fall. Xiao Yifei was about to help her up, but the old lady got up on her own.
Watching this scene, Xiao Yifei suddenly remembered something.
It seemed he hadn’t been in touch with Wei Can for a while, and if he remembered correctly, Wei Can had once told him that she was a designer.
Although Wei Can had sent him a few messages before, inviting him out, he had declined due to being tied up with lots of minor things lately. Perhaps his cool attitude had led Wei Can to overthink, so she hadn’t been in contact with Xiao Yifei recently.
Thinking of the tender, soft, and alluring young woman, Xiao Yifei smiled lightly. He couldn’t forget how Wei Can had teased him when she was drunk, nor could he forget the little gadget he found at Wei Can’s house.
Xiao Yifei touched his nose, realizing he was no longer the virgin he once was. Now if Wei Can dared to tease him again, Xiao Yifei would definitely show her his mettle.
He took out his phone and dialed Wei Can’s number.
The call connected quickly, but Wei Can’s voice was somewhat cold, lacking the previous excitement she had when talking to Xiao Yifei.
Xiao Yifei scratched his head, puzzled by the sudden change in Wei Can’s tone. But he didn’t dwell on it since he mainly wanted to discuss his house’s design.
Then Xiao Yifei roughly explained his situation over the phone and heard the reply, "Okay, fine. I’m currently at the Century Garden Plaza’s North Island Cafe. We can talk more when you come over."
After saying that, Wei Can hung up the phone. Xiao Yifei scratched his head, hailed a cab, and headed towards North Island Cafe.
Wei Can put the phone aside, lifting her head to look at the man sitting opposite her, and continued, "Go on, what else is there to introduce?"
Wei Can’s strange reaction made Liang Lanfei, who was sitting beside her, frown, feeling somewhat baffled.
"What’s wrong? Who was on the phone?"
Liang Lanfei leaned in and whispered.
Hearing Liang Lanfei’s question, Wei Can took a deep breath, adjusted her state of mind, turned to Liang Lanfei, and said indifferently, "It was Xiao Yifei."
"That kid still dares to call you! What’s he thinking!"
Liang Lanfei’s eyes bulged with sudden fury upon hearing Wei Can’s words. Suppressing the anger in her heart, she said, "Just like that, dangling you along, he doesn’t show up when you ask him to come out, but now that he thinks of you, he just gives you a call. I’ve long said that this kid is unreliable! Just talking about him makes me angry! Cancan, you have to know that you’re not getting any younger! You need to think about yourself!"
Wei Can took a deep breath after hearing Liang Lanfei’s words, then nodded at her, "I know."
"What does that kid want, calling you like that! I need to go warn him! We can’t let this kid delay you any longer!"
Liang Lanfei spoke, brimming with resentment.
"It’s nothing. He said he has a house and wanted me to help with the design."
Wei Can turned her head and responded indifferently to Liang Lanfei.
"What for! He has a house, him? That little rat?"
Liang Lanfei stared incredulously, "It must be some shabby house from his family that he wants to renovate, and he thought of you as cheap labor! But he doesn’t think, with his means, what right does he have to have you design his house? Can he even afford it!" Get full chapters from noᴠelfire.net
"How did you respond to him!"
Liang Lanfei stared intently at Wei Can.
"I told him to come over."
Wei Can, avoiding Liang Lanfei’s gaze, mumbled her response with her head down.
"Big sister! Are you joking? Are you messing with me? Do you realize you’re on a blind date? A quality man like him is hard to find even with a lantern, and you told him to come over? For what!"
Liang Lanfei’s eyes reddened in frustration as she berated Wei Can, "Big sister! Have you got it wrong!"
The handsome man sitting across from them asked with some confusion, "If there’s something pressing, go ahead and take care of it. I don’t mind."
Having said that, the man gave a gentlemanly smile.
"It’s nothing, nothing at all! Please wait a moment!"
Liang Lanfei hastily said to the man with a smile, then she lowered her head and spoke to Wei Can with frustration, "See that? Where else will you find such an outstanding man? And you’re inviting that lousy kid over, what are you thinking!"
Wei Can opened her mouth to respond to Liang Lanfei, but ultimately lowered her head without knowing what to say.
"So he’s coming, what’s the big deal?"
Wei Can muttered under her breath.
Liang Lanfei was exasperated by Wei Can’s demeanor and spoke forcefully, "I don’t care, once that kid arrives, hurry up and tell him to take a hike! Don’t let him disturb your blind date. It took me so long to find you such a quality man, who’s actually interested in you. Don’t waste all my good intentions!"
Upon hearing Liang Lanfei’s words, Wei Can felt a complex mix of emotions, a trace of indecipherable expression flashing through her eyes as she let out a deep sigh.
"You’re sighing! Are you still thinking about that kid? I really don’t get it. What’s so good about him? He’s just a university lecturer, a bit handsome, right?"
Liang Lanfei looked at Wei Can with eyes full of disapproval, "Besides, there’s such an age difference between you two. Let’s not even discuss his attitude towards you, do you think he can make you happy? Look at this man I’ve found for you! Not only is he handsome and wealthy, but he’s also interested in you. In every way, he’s a hundred times better than that scoundrel! If you’re still so deluded this time, then I won’t help you anymore!"
