Chapter 402: Lu Han: It’s quite urgent, but not in a hurry to rest (1 update)_1

As soon as the food was served, Lu Han began taking care of Tang Su, serving her soup, dishing out her rice, and picking out vegetables for her.

His movements were quick and nimble.

With Lu Han’s flurry of actions, Tang Su felt a bit overwhelmed. "Doctor Lu, are you tired and in a hurry to finish eating so you can go home and rest?"

Tang Su asked innocently.

She had a great time playing at the film set all day, and now, gathering with so many congenial friends, she was actually quite enjoying the lively eating and drinking together.

But for some reason, Lu Han beside her was eating as if he was pressed for time, which put a lot of invisible pressure on her.

After dinner, she would definitely be leaving with him.

Not wanting to disturb others, Tang Su asked this question very quietly so that no one else could hear.

Lu Han lowered his eyes to glance at his girl and said seriously in a volume only they could hear, "Mmm, I am quite in a hurry, but not to rest."

Tang Su: ???

Not in a hurry to rest?

Then why eat so fast?

As a doctor, doesn’t he know that one should chew slowly and savor their food during meals?

Their behavior of whispering together and bumping heads elicited dissatisfaction.

"Seriously, are there even that many singles here today? You two don’t have to show off your love like that, believe it or not, we could start pairing up people right here," Sun Qing pouted.

So close to each other, and after disappearing for a good ten minutes earlier, they were still being so mushy?

These two weren’t newly in love; after a month, modern-day couples’ passion usually simmers down, right?

"Sun Qing, don’t you have a blind date this weekend?" How could Tang Su not see through Sun Qing’s intentions? She was always keen on setting her up with Bai Dingxian.

Then why was she so enthusiastic taking photos with that movie star at the film set today?

Tang Su saw Bai Dingxian as a rather traditional man, especially after meeting Patriarch Bai. If Sun Qing wanted to marry into the Bai family, she couldn’t be overly enthusiastic with other men in the future.

She would have to rein in her behavior.

After all, as her best friend, Tang Su found her behavior acceptable, but others might not.

If she wasn’t entering the Bai family, it would be fine, but if she decided on Bai Dingxian, she would still need to change for the choices she made.

"Ah? Qingqing, you’re going on a blind date? With whom?" Lin Jiaojiao was very curious.

With Sun Qing being such a cute and lively girl, why would she need a blind date?

"Well, my grandfather set it up, and I..." Sun Qing glanced at Bai Dingxian and hesitated to speak, noticing his unhappy expression.

If she was already this timid before they were together, what would the future hold?

Sun Qing felt a bit disappointed in herself, but it was the path she chose, and she would have to follow it, even if it meant kneeling.

"Oh come on, can you be sure about the person your grandfather introduced? Didn’t you just say we could do matching right here? Bai Dingxian is single too, and his family is also pressing him. I think, why don’t you two give it a try, right? Old Tan."

Old Tan was sitting beside his wife and went along with whatever she said. He nodded in agreement, "Yes, Bai Dingxian, you’re not getting any younger. Lu Han and Tang Su are on the verge of making it official, you should find a girlfriend and be in love too."

"I came here to eat, not to be pressured into marriage, okay?" Once Bai Dingxian finished speaking, he, like Lu Han, began to wolf down his meal, his speed matching Lu Han’s.

Lin Jiaojiao glanced at Old Tan, who shrugged his shoulders, having done his best. The men of the Bai family were stubborn, like stones in a toilet — stinky and hard.

Who would listen to persuasion?

If they did, they would all be cozily married with wives and children by now.

Lin Jiaojiao knew this was just how the Bai family’s men were.

"People who care about you will nudge you towards marriage. If nobody cares, even as an old bachelor, no one will ask about you, so don’t be ungrateful," Lin Jiaojiao poured Sun Qing a drink. "Qingqing, go on your blind date with an open mind. If it’s a success, come to me, and I’ll treat you both to drinks."

"...um, thanks, sis." Sun Qing couldn’t help but glance at Bai Dingxian again.

Afterward, Sun Qing quieted down considerably.

Lu Han quickly finished his meal, and not long after Lu Han was full, Tang Su was also satisfied.

"It’s getting late, we’ll be leaving first," Lu Han said, pulling Tang Su’s hand as they stood up.

"What, leaving so soon?"

"Tang Su, Doctor Lu, I’ve been drinking, let me drive you back," Sun Qing offered as she took out her car keys from her bag.

"No need, Tang Su will ride with me on my motorcycle," Lu Han declined.

"Oh, okay then."

"Take your time eating, we’ll be off."

The next moment, Lu Han took Tang Su’s hand and turned to leave.

"Why is Lu Han in such a hurry today?"

"What else? He’s in a hurry to ease his urges," said Veteran Tan, with a meaningful utterance.

Everyone: "..."

Seeing everyone so shocked, Veteran Tan continued, "Come on, we’re all adults here, do you really need to get so worked up?"

"..."

Were they really that emotional?

Not really—

"They’ve been dating for two months now, right? Has the big bad wolf still not caught the little white rabbit? That doesn’t sound like Lu Han’s style at all. Or is little Lu Han underperforming?"

"..."

This topic was too explosive.

Besides, there was a little white rabbit among them. Although Sun Qing often pretended to be the big bad wolf, at this moment, hearing the big brother Veteran Tan so casually bring up matters of men and women, she was a bit out of her element.

The atmosphere was slightly awkward.

Only Lin Jiaojiao could retort to Veteran Tan.

Lin Jiaojiao slapped him on the face, not very hard, but the sound was particularly loud.

"Have you had too much cat piss to drink? Blabbering anything that comes to mind. Lu Han is being respectful to Tang Su. You think every man is like you, wanting to snatch everything away on the day they hold hands?"

Lin Jiaojiao was a tigress. With her own people around, she dared to say such wild words.

"That’s how a man passionately expresses his love for a woman."

"Just look at those who pursue platonic relationships. Unless both are incapable, it can work. But if one of the two is healthy and the other isn’t, it’s impossible."

"Not to mention those who find out halfway through that it won’t work, then..."

"Alright, alright, since when did you become a love and marriage expert? What do you think we are? We don’t like to hear this, so shut it," Lin Jiaojiao said with disdain.

"Fine, fine, I’ll shut up, but tonight I’ll use my mouth differently."

"..."

And so, right in front of Bai Dingkai, the two of them flirted and teased each other. Bai Simen couldn’t help but turn her head to look at Bai Dingkai, and sure enough, he was looking at her too.

In that moment of eye contact, Bai Simen suddenly thought of the scene from the second floor of Tangsu Bookstore earlier that day.

Her heart suddenly began to pound.

The sweet fermented rice wine she had just drunk felt as if it were ignited by Bai Dingxian’s clear yet burning gaze, instantly boiling over...
