Chapter 278: Chapter 203: How Could It Be You!

Tang Xi has been preparing to send Tangtang to kindergarten these past few days.

Tangtang has reached the age to attend kindergarten.

Among the several kindergartens closest to their home, there are two, but neither is cheap. The tuition per quarter is not low, with most kindergartens on the island leaning towards private, and the only central kindergarten, though moderately priced, is too far away.

This is a private kindergarten that limits the number of spots available at the start of the school year.

It was Nurse Manager Song Qin who helped her.

Tang Xi was very grateful. On her day off, Song Qin called her, saying that a distant relative’s son had returned, a very outstanding man close to Tang Xi’s age, hoping they could meet and get to know each other.

Tang Xi understood; this was matchmaking.

Originally, Tang Xi was going to refuse, but since Song Qin had helped with her daughter’s school admission, she could only nod and agree to go that evening.

Eight o’clock in the evening, at the Lake Heart Pavilion Cafe.

Tang Xi was dressed in a white blouse and light blue jeans. She walked in, glanced around, and immediately saw the man sitting by the window. She took out her phone and checked the location that Song Qin had sent her; it should be him.

She slowly walked over, "Hello, my name is Tang Xi."

Lin Xuyang looked at Tang Xi, seemed stunned for a moment as if dazzled, then stood up, "My name is Lin Xuyang. Aunt Song Qin must have already introduced you to me. I’ve just recently returned, and I’m currently employed at a technology company, 28 years old. It’s a pleasure to meet you, Miss Tang Xi."

Tang Xi nodded, noticing the man’s outstretched hand. She frowned slightly but still chose to shake it politely. Whether it was her imagination or an instinctual aversion to matchmaking, she felt Lin Xuyang touch her hand a bit longer before he let go.

Tang Xi sat opposite the man, "I’ll also introduce myself briefly. I have a daughter, I’m divorced, and currently, I really don’t have any particular thoughts about marriage. Song Qin is a colleague from the same department, and I came because she asked me to, but actually, I...."

"Let’s not talk about that for now. What would you like to eat? Let’s order first," said Lin Xuyang, while passing the menu over.

Tang Xi glanced at it; the cafe was mid-to-high end, nothing inexpensive, with even a simple juice costing 80 yuan a glass. She ordered a pasta and handed the menu back to Lin Xuyang.

Lin Xuyang smiled and said, "Let’s add each other on WeChat and get to know one another, shall we?"

Tang Xi felt somewhat helpless; the phone was in her hand, but she declined, adjusted her emotions, and said, "Mr. Lin, here’s the deal: I’m a divorced mother with a four-year-old daughter, and I’m not ready to get into another relationship. Let’s go Dutch on dinner tonight, and please also convey to Sister Song Qin that we are not suitable for each other."

"Doctor Tang, this is the thing: I don’t mind your past marriage or child. As a programmer and you being a doctor, I think we are quite suitable from a professional standpoint. I inquired about your income with Sister Song Qin and mine is a bit higher. I think we could give it a try and see how it goes," Lin Xuyang said while taking out his phone, "I’ll scan your WeChat; how will we know if we’re compatible without trying?"

At this moment, Song Qin called. Tang Xi glanced at the phone, said sorry to Lin Xuyang, and then answered the call, lowering her head slightly.

"How is it, what do you think of my brother? He’s the son of a distant relative who calls me sister. He’s about your age, good-looking, and has a respectable job. As soon as he arrived back on the northern island, Shangguan Group offered him an opportunity. He has both a car and a house, and also, he just told me on WeChat that he likes you quite a bit and is quite satisfied with you. You two should talk more."

The enthusiasm of Song Qin made it hard for Tang Xi to refuse.

After all, she was indebted to the help Song Qin had provided for her daughter’s kindergarten slot. Tang Xi temporarily agreed and added Lin Xuyang’s WeChat.

After dinner that night, Tang Xi insisted on going Dutch. It pained her to spend money at this restaurant, but since she had no intention of further development with Lin Xuyang, she persisted with splitting the bill, not wanting to owe him any favors.

Time slowly passed, and during the week, Lin Xuyang asked Tang Xi out several times, but she refused each time, citing work commitments.

Tangtang initially didn’t adapt well to kindergarten, but slowly got accustomed to it over the course of the week, with Su Wenhe picking her up and dropping her off every day.

After working a night shift, the emergency department was especially quiet that night. Tang Xi took turns sleeping for a few hours with another colleague; she went home in the morning to catch up on sleep, and around four in the afternoon, she prepared to go to the kindergarten to pick up Tangtang.
