Chapter 636: 402 “The matchmaking experience of a young aunt who was set up, tragically becomes a public

spectacle (3 updates)_2

“I want that one,” Huo Qingi suddenly pointed at a duck yellow colored cat bed.

“This one? Is this color suitable?”

“It's suitable.”

Jiang Jinsang had been looking at the cats and dogs inside the pet store and hadn’t been paying attention to the

purchasing process of someone else, until checkout, did he realize that someone had actually bought a bunch of

items in colors like pale and tender pink.

“What are you looking at?” Huo Qingi raised his eyebrows at him.

“Nothing, as long as you like it.”

Jiang Jinsang chuckled. This guy usually wore white clothes sparingly, thinking they were not stain-resistant, so

his clothing was predominantly black and grey. Why would he think to buy a bunch of such brightly colored

things?

Keeping a cat, fond of tender colors?

Getting old, changing tastes, a bit perverted?

Since they were in the Huo Family car, naturally, they had to take Jiang Jinsang back, and Huo Qingi also knew

that tonight Tang Wan’s mentor would be dining at the old mansion. He was never a person who enjoyed lively

gatherings, with little to talk about even among acquaintances, let alone those he had never met before.

Jiang Jinsang understood him as well, so he didn’t plan on asking him to stay for dinner.

The car stopped in the yard, and he still politely asked, “Old Huo, do you want to cin for a cup of tea before

you go?”

By then, there were already several cars parked in the old mansion’s yard. Huo Qingi had planned to leave

directly but from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a familiar car, his gaze growing deep...

She said she had plans tonight, just to cover to the Jiang Family for dinner?

When Tang Wan had an incident, Shen Shuci didn’t seem very anxious. Even when it broke out online that

someone was intercepted at the airport, she went to work on tas if unconcerned by her matter. Looking back

now, she probably knew Xi Fangli and understood that no matter how much more a fuss was made, the one

embarrassed wouldn't be Tang Wan.

“Old Huo? If you don’t go in, then Ill...” Jiang Jinsang was just being casually polite and didn’t expect him to

suddenly speak up.

“Then let’s go in for a cup of tea.”

Huo Qingi was already so familiar with the Jiang Family, having stayed at their house during his school days.

Jiang Jinsang seriously sized him up, finding it odd.

ok

Meanwhile, the atmosphere in the living room was even stranger.

Shen Shuci had no idea Xi Fangli had other plans. Thinking that she hadn’t seen him yesterday and that he must

be upset, old people can be somewhat naggy.

She took Tang Wan'’s advice, after work, went deliberately to the restroom, changed into a long dress, and

touched up her make-up. When she left the office, even the security guard gave her several more glances.

By the tshe arrived at the Jiang Family, Xi Fangli had already arrived; Tang Wan personally cout to

receive her. Shen Shuci seldom dressed herself up. She naturally had a very appealing temperament, and after

putting on the dress, she softened her inherent sharpness, adding a touch of feminine charm that was quite

becoming.

“What's wrong? Do | look strange in this?”

“I've never seen this dress before?”

“I bought it when | cto Beijing, especially with my mother. I just haven't worn it until now.” The Shen

Family's old lady was very fond of her and wished she could sort out her clothing for every season herself.

“It looks very nice. You should have dressed like this a long tago. Don’t always wear those kinds of

professional suits. They're too stiff,” Tang Wan said as she walked her inside.

“I can only wear that to work.”

“I know. Let's go, the mentor has been waiting for you.”

After Tang Wan led Shen Shuci into the house, the old lady saw her and couldn't help but praise her several

times. Although Shen Shuci was not a shy person, besides the old lady and Xi Fangli, there was someone she did

not know suddenly lavishing compliments on her, which made her feel somewhat uncomfortable.

“If it weren't for Wanwan inviting you, | think you wouldn't have planned to seeat all. I've doted on you in

vain,” Xi Fangli looked at her, dressed nicely and with a good complexion, and nodded inwardly, feeling quite

relieved.

At the very least, it seemed like she was living quite well in Beijing on her own.

“It was a prior arrangement with that colleague, so...” Shen Shuci had been tempted at the tand had agreed

before she remembered that Xi Fangli would be coming to Beijing.

“Okay, have a seat,” Xi Fangli said with a smile. “I heard you found a job at a foreign company? How do you feel

about it?”

“It's alright. I'm still in the probation period; it'll get better after | becofficial.”

After ssmall talk, Xi Fangli suddenly changed the subject. He mentioned that a young man on his team was

from Beijing who was also responsible for part of the current exhibition work and had just cback from

overseas. He suggested they could get to know each other...

He said it very casually, just as if he was talking about making a common friend, but everyone nowadays is not

naive.

The old lady was also unaware of the plan in advance, simply seeing that Xi Fangli brought someone over and

considering that Shen Shuci was to come, she probably guessed what was going on.

As for her, she didn’t intervene, just sitting on the side, sipping tea and watching.

“You're both newly back in the country; it's good to go out and wander when you're free.” Xi Fangli’s intention

was already very clear.

Shen Shuci glanced at Tang Wan sitting beside her, who was peeling and eating a sugared tangerine, quietly

moved away, and swiftly sat next to the old lady in a rather sneaky manner...

“Young people, after all, should go out and explore,” Xi Fangli said with a smile, giving the man beside him a

wink.

“Miss Shen, my nis Yu Wei.”

“Shen Shuci.”

Both had never experienced this kind of situation and were inevitably a bit restrained and awkward.

Before Shen Shuci arrived, Tang Wan had actually learned a bit about the situation. Since Xi Fangli was

introducing them, this Yu Wei might not be exceptionally good-looking, but he stood out as excellent among his

peers. However, if they didn’t take a liking to each other, there was nothing to be done.

At this moment, Tang Wan hardly dared to look Shen Shuci in the eyes, her gaze piercing as if she were ready to

eat her alive.

Just when the atmosphere was becoming awkward, the sound of a car cfrom outside.

“Probably Xiaowu returning,” the old lady said with a laugh.

“I'll go and see,” said Tang Wan, and she went out the door. The sound of the car relieved sof the tension in

the living room.

When Tang Wan went out, she saw Huo Qingi also getting out of the car, “Big Brother Huo.”

“Mm,” Huo Qingi nodded slightly toward her, his usual cool detachment.

“Have Master and Auntie already arrived?” Jiang Jinsang naturally noticed the cars parked in the courtyard.

“The ‘matchmaking’ has already started; just cout to give you a heads up.”

“I know.”

It was Huo Qingi who walked by the side, slightly frowning and asking softly, “What matchmaking?”

“Master is introducing a suitor to Auntie; they're meeting in the living room right now.”

People from the Huo Family inwardly cursed:

Shen Shuci, who was already embarrassed, didn’t expect to encounter Huo Qingi. He and Jiang Jinsang were

sitting a bit further away, but she had a feeling...

He seemed to be staring at her the whole time!

Xi Fangli originally thought that with acquaintances present, meeting and chatting would be no different from

normal talk, so it shouldn't be awkward. However, for Shen Shuci...

It was her first t“being matched,” and to be watched by a crowd, Shen Shuci really wished she could find a

crack in the ground to crawl into.

Huo Qingi had just sat down, eyeing her with a concentrated look, and there was another arrangement...

matchmaking?
