As the situation with Qin Ji Ran has been resolved, Yun Shu began to busy herself with the final preparation before the event began.
Soon, the participant of the blind date event showed up.
They were the sons and daughters of rich and influential families in Y City. Each one of them was dressed to impress, as they treat this event as the other social events.
Yun Shu came out of the kitchen area after reminding the chef of a few participants who were allergic to seafood. Looking at how the participants were mingling on the floor made her think if they came to join the event to find their other half.
The girls were comparing themselves, who was the better dresser.
As she walked across the hall, Yun Shu overheard the men discussing a few business projects.
A sigh escaped her.
Yun Shu began to wonder if these people came to this event to join the blind date or to compete with each other.
No wonder their parents were so worried that they might not get married.
Fortunately, there were a few parents who showed up at this event as well. It seemed that they were worried that their children might not be making any progress. With them around, they started to introduce their single children to another.
Yun Shu stayed and watched the situation for a while before deciding to come up with a plan. She walked over to Madam Gao and suggested the speed dating game.
Madame Gao's eyes lit up when she heard the idea.
Soon, Yun Shu turned to her assistant to give them a few instructions.
As the games finally started, the event finally looked more like a blind date event.
Seeing that this situation had changed, Yun Shu let her assistant and others continue to monitor the event while she went to her car to retrieve a few things.
While picking up her bag in the trunk, Yun Shu noticed that a shadow was looming over her. She stood up quickly and turned around, only to find that her scumbag ex standing in front of her.
Her eyes dimmed as he stared at the man unhappily. "What do you want?"
Qin Ji Ran looked at her unhappily, but realizing he needed her help, he could only suppress his dissatisfaction. "Help me to get inside."
"Impossible. Unless if you are a registered participant, you can't go in." With her bag in hand, Yun Shu slammed the trunk shut, wanting to get away from this scumbag.
However, Qin Ji Ran was blocking her path again.
"I don't need to enter as a participant. You can sneak me in as your staff. I won't mind," Qin Ji Ran said.
Yun Shu chuckled. She was instantly reminded of the news that she heard from her former classmate. "Qin Ji Ran, I heard that you were going to marry your fiance in a few months." She gave him a look over and continued, "Why would someone like you want to join a blind date? Won't your fiance mind this?"
"Who said I'm here to join the blind date? I only want to meet a few people, alright?" Qin Ji Ran spoke impatiently. "For old time's sake, why don't you help me?"
Of course, Yun Shu was aware of the reason Qin Ji Ran wanted to get in. He was the same Qin Ji Ran who only know to think of himself.
However, she could not allow him to go in and make trouble. The participants came from families that they could not afford to offend.
If something happened, the one to face the consequences would be her.
Her expression turned uglier. "I will call the security and have you banned from this club if you continue to disturb me."
Turning around, Yun Shu began to head over to the building again. Seeing that the man wanted to grab her hand, Yun Shu quickly screamed for security to come.
The man's expression turned dark before he finally escaped.
Qin Ji Ran knew that he could not get banned from this club. Otherwise, his father would be furious.
...
Meanwhile, Qi Zheng had a massive headache.
The organizer of this event had suddenly arranged for something called speed dating where he have to sit down and talk to the other gender for five minutes before the person in front of him would change into someone else.
After meeting several women, Qi Zheng was wondering if he could survive the rest of the event.
Although the ladies who came to this event were pretty and talented, none of them seem to suit his preferences.
Qi Zheng wanted to escape. However, when he recalled the look on his grandfather's face, he could only choose to endure for a few more minutes.
Feeling slightly tired after meeting a few women, Qi Zheng made an excuse to head over to the bathroom. He washed his face and stood in front of the mirror, wondering if it was time to call Feng An Yu to come over and save him.
But, this won't be solving his problem.
Qi Zheng knew that if he did not meet anyone on this day, his grandfather would arrange for him to attend another blind date.
Just the thought of meeting more ladies and having this meaningless conversation gave him an urge to cry.
Taking a deep breath, Qi Zheng finally came out of the restroom to return to the hall.
Just as he was approaching closer, his eyes caught the sight of someone familiar. He stood on the spot to watch this woman for a while and finally recalled how he had met her at the market earlier that month.
He had approached her grandmother to ask for her help in choosing herbs. However, her grandmother had tried to set them up. The situation was too awkward and he could still remember the horror on her face.
Qi Zheng did not expect that this woman would be attending this blind date event as well.
The corner of his lips tilted up. He guessed that the woman's grandmother had made her attend this event as well.
Qi Zheng did not know what was going through his mind at that moment. He only knew that it was too tiring to go out and meet other people.
Since his grandfather wanted him to settle down and get a wife, perhaps he could come up with a plan to fulfill his request.
Qi Zheng watched as the woman spoke to the man in front of her. As the male leave her side, Qi Zheng walked over and stood in front of her with an amiable smile on his face.
