“Miss, although Grey Ivy is really infuriating, there’s no need to be so obsessed with him, right?”
Liang Hai picked up the glass of lemonade, bit the straw and took a small sip. The icy liquid slid down her throat, slightly suppressing the irritation in her heart.
“Ugh, it’s not okay for a guy who can never be caught to keep being disgusting… At the very least, I have to warn him, but that person relies on no one being able to catch him and does whatever he wants on the internet. The victims aren’t just me.”
The Butler looked at his young lady’s side profile, knowing that he wouldn’t get any results by advising on this topic, so he considerately changed the subject:
“Is Young Lady happy today?”
“It’s okay, I guess. After finishing a few small tasks with the sponsorship contracts in the afternoon, I went to the Golf Course to exercise a bit, broke a sweat, and it felt pretty good.”
Butler Grandfather bowed slightly, his tone becoming a bit more solemn
“That’s good. Then, for dinner later, please do not forget that you still have to meet your fiancé.”
“Thud.”
The berserker’s giant axe missed in the screen.
‘How did a long CD damage skill miss.’
Liang Hai’s fingers paused slightly:
“What fiancé… Maybe this matter hasn’t even started yet.”
The Butler somewhat helplessly took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead:
“But you also know Grandfather’s temper. The old master always talks about the life-and-death friendship with his old comrades on the battlefield back then. This childhood engagement is something he is determined to fulfill.”
Liang Hai put her legs down from the chair, the toes of her black pantyhose touching the floor.
“But suddenly having a fiancé… is still hard to accept.”
Actually, Liang Hai had known since she was very young that she had a so-called fiancé.
But over all these years, she didn’t even know what the other party looked like or what their name was. The two were like opposite ends of parallel lines, never having any intersection.
She still knew her family’s circumstances. If one day she had to marry according to the family’s arrangements, it couldn’t be helped. After all, Liang Hai had enjoyed so much from childhood to adulthood, rights and obligations were relative.
But, according to common sense…
Since it was an engagement set from childhood, shouldn’t they have arranged for both sides to meet often when they were still young, slowly cultivating feelings like childhood sweethearts?
But the result? Grandfather kept this matter hidden until she was in her junior year of college, then suddenly airdropped this fiancé in front of her.
This approach of treating her like an object to be casually placed made Liang Hai feel dissatisfaction toward the grandfather she had always respected.
As a burst of light pollution from the chaotic bombardment lit up on the screen, the Dragon crashed to the ground.
Liang Hai took off her headphones, casually picked up her phone, and glanced at the WeChat notification that had just popped up.
She murmured:
“This dinner party tonight is destined not to be too pleasant…”

“What is your current annual income?”
“What specific job do you do?”
“Do you have a house and car under your name? If so, is it fully paid or mortgaged?”
“How are your family interpersonal relationships? Do you have siblings? What are their current jobs and marital statuses?”
“Going back three generations, is there any family genetic disease history?”
“Do you currently live with your family, or do you live alone?”
“What are your career plans and life plans?”
“How many romantic experiences have you had?”
“Is your usual social circle simple? Do you have any close friends of the opposite sex?”
“Is your daily schedule regular? Do you smoke, drink, stay up late, or have you been involved in gambling and high-risk investments?”
“What hobbies do you usually have? How much time and money do you spend on hobbies each week?”
“Do your parents have any debt or guarantee records under their names? Has the family been involved in any legal lawsuits?”
“Do your parents currently have pensions and medical insurance? Roughly what is the amount?”
“What is your biggest consumption item usually? What is the general highest single consumption amount?”
“Whose name are the assets under your name currently registered under? Did your parents contribute funds?”
At this moment, Liang Hai, who appeared to be sitting upright opposite, had her back straight and her eyes as calm as an ancient well.
But in the depths of her heart unknown to anyone, she was almost unable to resist applauding herself.
‘Hehe, having watched so many cliché girl comics and primetime soap operas from childhood to adulthood, those classic lines of wealthy family mothers-in-law or arrogant blind date women, she could recite them backwards fluently.’
She had long wanted to say these lines once.
And she just happened to run into such a fiancé.
The lines that had settled for ten years finally had a chance to be spoken.
At the same time, opposite Liang Hai.
On the third floor of a certain Open-air High-altitude Restaurant, Chang Hansui sat somewhat unnaturally next to the large floor-to-ceiling transparent glass, a bit afraid to look directly at the girl sitting opposite.
This was an Open-air High-altitude Restaurant located in a prosperous area of the city center, with huge floor-to-ceiling panoramic glass right beside. Colorful urban neon lights accompanied the flowing traffic.
This luxurious atmosphere surrounded by extravagance even gave Chang Hansui an illusion that “he seemed like some big shot worth over a hundred million”
Chang Hansui stiffly withdrew his gaze from the window, not quite daring to look directly at the girl opposite, only able to secretly size her up with his peripheral vision.
The girl before him had soft features, a pair of moist and bright large eyes, and crow-feather-like smooth black hair cascading like a waterfall over her shoulders.
When she slightly lowered her brows, it revealed a natural tenderness, looking very much like that kind of gentle sakura-type soft girl.
Compared to Magic Girl Suigetsuka who looked high and mighty… although each had their characteristics, her features and temperament were clearly much softer.
At first glance comparison, Magic Girl Suigetsuka was simply fierce!
‘Hmph, what’s with the aloofness, what’s with the arrogance?’
‘I’ll write your story hard! Hmph, tonight I’ll make you wear a maid outfit.’
Liang Hai was wearing a white lace flared long sleeve, with a gemstone bow tie in the middle. The gemstone looked expensive at a glance.
Her lower half was paired with a white and blue A-line skirt, the pure white fabric sewn with dark blue embroidery that shimmered with a silky luster.
Under the table, that pair of slender long legs wrapped in slightly translucent black stockings were elegantly crossed together.
Plus the limited edition small handbag with a conspicuous double-letter Logo casually placed by her hand… all of it was declaring to Chang Hansui: this was absolutely a genuine super rich woman.
If it weren’t for the childhood engagement that his own old man had dug out from who knows which nook and cranny, Chang Hansui felt that with him being a homebody who spent all day accompanying the keyboard, he probably wouldn’t even have the chance to serve dishes to this kind of young lady in this lifetime.
Although his own family also ran a small factory, usually making some capacitors, power supplies and such, he could barely count as a moderately well-off second-generation rich.
But compared to this rich woman in front of him whose casual accessory could cover half a year’s living expenses for him, it was simply the gap between a roadside stall and a three-star Michelin restaurant.
Facing the girl’s machine-gun-like soul interrogation, Chang Hansui took a deep breath and decided to strike first.
“Education: Bachelor’s! Occupation: Streamer!! Income: Uncertain! Assets: No house no car! Lives alone! No debts no romantic experiences! Brand new unopened! Male college student self-use 99 new!”
After saying that, he secretly sized up Liang Hai’s face, waiting for the expected storm.
Liang Hai’s fair fingers gently tucked the stray hair at her temples behind her ear, the corners of her lips curling into a slight smile.
“…Nice to meet you, please take care of me.”
‘What?’
‘This person is actually unmoved?’
‘She didn’t even start with a battle roar?’
‘Looks like a high-end match.’
‘Interesting…’
“Hello, my name is Chang Hansui.”
Generally speaking, women who open big like this at the start aren’t they the most sharp-tongued and mean?
Anyway, sharp people are mean their whole lives.
For example, the wife of a certain well-known Yellow-green Computer Security Software boss, every time she goes home the first thing is to scold her husband, why are you so poor, not earning as much as that White Dog Shopping Website boss, why aren’t you as diligent as him.
Hehe, this kind of Little Red Book senior user, even if she becomes Bill Gates she would still belittle you.
At this time, as long as Chang Hansui appropriately showed his own shortcomings, the other side coldly mocked and satirized, this blind date should fall apart, right?
But she was actually unmoved?
