Chapter 308: Chapter 308: Asking for a Match (Part 1)
In the morning, Long Fei was sleeping soundly.
Suddenly, his phone started ringing. Picking it up, he saw it was a call from Xu Dong.
Long Fei slapped his forehead, nearly forgetting the important matter at hand.
It was Saturday, and Xu Dong had arranged to go to Caicai’s house to propose marriage.
He answered the call and agreed on a place to meet, ready to take a taxi there in a while.
Lin Yingying was showering in the bathroom; she too wanted Long Fei to accompany her to visit her parents today.
Hearing the phone ring, she thought it was Wang Xiaoya calling, quickly popped her head out, and shouted to Long Fei, "You don’t have a date today, do you?"
Long Fei frowned and said, "You have something on?"
Lin Yingying pulled a long face, "Who said I have a date with you today?"
Long Fei laughed dryly, "Didn’t you say you didn’t want to have a date with me?"
Lin Yingying grinded her teeth and said, "Can’t you hear what I mean? I don’t care, you stayed with Wang Xiaoya at a five-star hotel; I want to go too!"
Long Fei broke into a sweat, thinking to himself, could she have put a tracker on him? How did she know all this?
He cleared his throat and tried to decline, "Well, today, I’ve made plans with Xu Dong to go to his mother-in-law’s house for a marriage proposal. We can reschedule our date!"
"A marriage proposal?"
Lin Yingying looked at him skeptically, furrowing her brows, "He’s proposing; what are you going to do there?"
Long Fei explained, "He’s nervous, so he asked me to act as a mediator."
Lin Yingying laughed, "Don’t kid me, with your clumsy tongue, how can you act as a matchmaker? Wait for me; I’ll join you, and I’ll be the matchmaker."
"You’re not joking, are you?"
Long Fei’s eyes widened, wondering when she developed this interest.
Without paying him any attention, Lin Yingying rinsed off in the bathroom, applied light makeup, then went to the bedroom and came out in a different dress.
Her skin was beautiful, and she usually didn’t waste time on makeup.
A knee-length, beige, sleeveless dress cinched at the waist, paired with gold-edged, open-toe high heels, made her look quite stylish.
Casual yet elegant, luxurious without compromising on sexiness.
"How about it? Pretty or not?"
She twirled around to give Long Fei a good look.
Long Fei frowned, wondering if she was going to play matchmaker or just show off her wealth on purpose.
That outfit must’ve cost around a hundred thousand or more, right?
He now had a rough idea of how much women’s clothing cost.
But bringing Lin Yingying wasn’t a bad idea; this way, they could curb Caicai’s family’s arrogance and possibly keep the bride price from skyrocketing.
As they were preparing to leave, Lin Shanshan finally got up from her bedroom.
She was wearing a strappy nightdress, patting her cheeks, and asked them sleepily, "Where are you two off to?"
"A marriage proposal!"
Lin Yingying threw out a reply and commanded, "You stay nicely at home. It’s not safe these days; don’t wander around unnecessarily."
Lin Shanshan’s eyes widened with excitement, "What marriage proposal? Is my brother-in-law going to propose to mom and dad? Then I have to go back, right?"
Lin Yingying pursed her lips, looked at Long Fei with annoyance, and said, "He’s not going to propose to me. It’s for his security brother’s marriage proposal!"
Long Fei touched his head and laughed awkwardly, thinking that if she had fancied him sooner, would he have this extra feeling to deal with?
Of course, that was just something he thought to himself.
Lin Shanshan asked her sister curiously, "If they’re the ones proposing, why are you going?"
Lin Yingying gave her a look and said, "Mind your own business; talkative ghost!"
She grabbed her purse and left. Gold was trendy this year, and even her purse had gold trim.
Lin Yingying wrinkled her nose, feeling left out of what seemed like a fun event.
Her eyes searched the room and just happened to catch the Bald Dog sneaking out of the bedroom with a stolen dried fish.
When the Bald Dog approached, Lin Shanshan kicked him on the body and angrily hugged her arms as she cursed, "Everyone else has a man to accompany them, why do I only have a dog to play with!"
The Bald Dog let out a woeful whine, inwardly lamenting who on earth he had provoked.
You want a man, why don’t you go find one?
Why take it out on me for no reason?
It slipped out the door, thinking to itself that it was not going to enter this room again. Both these female owners were crazier than the other, absolute lunatics.
Downstairs, Long Fei had been preparing to take a cab with Xu Dong.
Now that Lin Yingying had driven up, he didn’t have to bother anymore.
Lin Yingying buckled her seatbelt and curiously asked him, "Didn’t you enroll for a driving license? When will you finish your exam?"
Long Fei stretched out his legs comfortably and said, "I can only take the second subject next Monday, and I reckon I’ll get the license by the end of the month."
"Your sister, ah!"
Lin Yingying cursed silently, thinking to herself that she, a distinguished director, had ended up playing chauffeur for them.
Arriving at Xu Dong’s apartment building, the guy, dressed in a suit, had already been waiting for quite a while.
With his tall and sturdy figure, he looked quite imposing once he tidied himself up.
Long Fei rolled down the window and called out to him.
He got into the car, excitedly saying, "Brother Long, where did you get such a cool car? That’s pretty impressive, huh?"
He glanced forward and noticed Lin Yingying.
Instantly startled, he quickly sat up straight and repeatedly greeted Lin Yingying, "Director Lin, hello, what brings you here?"
In front of her subordinates, Lin Yingying wasn’t as natural as she was in front of Long Fei.
She replied indifferently, "I was afraid you two men wouldn’t know the proprieties, so I came to offer some advice."
Xu Dong, scratching his head, chuckled foolishly and was at a loss for words out of gratitude.
A mere security guard proposing marriage, and even the director had been stirred into action.
If word got out, his face within the company would definitely be doubled.
Lin Yingying asked him, "Have you prepared any gifts?"
"Gifts are needed?"
Xu Dong was somewhat flustered.
Lin Yingying nearly coughed up blood and said, "Please, you’re going to someone’s house to propose, are you planning to go empty-handed?"
Xu Dong slapped his forehead and said, "Really, how could I have forgotten about that. Wait for me, I’ll go buy something."
Long Fei stopped him and said, "What’s there to buy, I’ve already prepared everything for you."
He wasn’t as negligent as Xu Dong and took a gift box out of his bag, handing it to Xu Dong.
Xu Dong frowned and said, "Boss, what are you doing? You’ve helped me enough, I can’t accept this from you."
"When you call me boss, don’t be so formal with me, okay?"
Long Fei scolded him lightly and told Lin Yingying to drive.
Xu Dong sat down, his voice low, and opened the gift box to take a glance.
He thought that if Long Fei and Lin Yingying ever got together, he would buy another one just like it and return it to Long Fei as a dowry.
As the box opened, everyone behind was dazzled.
A lush green Jade Bracelet was revealed, catching Lin Yingying’s eye in the rearview mirror.
She thought to herself that Long Fei was extremely generous, giving away a bracelet of this caliber so casually!
Jade King Liu Jinsuo had said that this bracelet had a quoted price of over a million on Antique Street.
After he finished processing it last time, Long Fei insisted on leaving him one as compensation.
Liu Jinsuo displayed it in his shop, and it had now become the treasure of the store.
