916 A Million Times for You 278 (2/2)
Bu Xianxian did not answer him. She thought about it carefully. He was either remarried or lying right now. But no matter which was the case, she was still rather unwilling to meet him.
Seeing that she did not reply, Mr. Baiyu sent her another message: ”Honey, are you still there?”
”I just went to the toilet.”
”Where do you live? I'll go and pick you up, okay? I'll give you a surprise, so you can see what I genuinely feel.”
”I still think we shouldn't meet. Isn't it good to just be husband and wife in the virtual world?”
He sent her another reply very soon: ”Are you afraid that I'm a crook? I've never shown you a photo of me before. How about this, I'll send you a photo of myself now. If you think I look like a crook, then don't meet me. Will that do? Give me your social media account, I'll send you a photo now.”
Bu Xianxian felt that it was a fine idea, so she registered a new account and gave it to him. Very soon, they added each other as friends.
As soon as she accepted him as a friend, a picture of a man popped up in a chat box. Looking at the photo, Bu Xianxian saw a man in his thirties who looked rather handsome. However, she felt that he looked somewhat familiar, as if she had seen him in the news before.
She asked, ”Can you tell me your real name?”
”If you don't meet me, I don't feel like revealing it.”
”Alright, then, I'll meet you. Where are you?”
…
After arranging a time and a venue to meet, Bu Xianxian changed into a dress and touched up her makeup before going to meet him.
It was the first time she was meeting an online friend.
She was very worried that he had sent her a fake photo that he'd found online and that he was a crazy and hideous-looking man in reality. As a result, she was exceptionally cautious when she went to their meeting venue.
They had arranged to meet in a park that was surrounded by people.
Wearing a pair of sunglasses and clutching her bag, Bu Xianxian was intentionally late for ten minutes. When she saw the same man she had seen in the picture standing ahead, her feelings of anxiety were instantly released.
He looked even more handsome in real life.
Seeing him dressed in a designer suit, Bu Xianxian headed toward him gracefully.
”Are you Mr. Baiyu?”
Shi Shaochuan looked at the woman in a pair of sunglasses. ”I am. Are you Xiaobubu?”
”Yes.” Bu Xianxian flashed a demure smile. ”I can't believe you actually came.”
”I said I would come, of course I would.” He looked at the huge pair of sunglasses on her face. ”Can you take off your sunglasses?”
Bu Xianxian raised her hand to remove her sunglasses, and the grin on Shi Shaochuan's face immediately turned into a stiff smile. ”You… why do you look so much like An Xiaoning?”
Her height, voice, and other aspects were different from An Xiaoning's.
”You know An Xiaoning, too? Everyone says that I look like her, but I can't choose my looks. My parents gave birth to me like this.”
With this face before him, Shi Shaochuan was genuinely unable to be happy.
”It's not that alike, actually. Your expressions are different from hers.”
”You know her personally?” Bu Xianxian asked.
”I do.” That was his ex-wife she was talking about, how could he not know her?
”I know her too. It's just that, our relationship is bad. It's mainly because she…” She stopped mid-way in her sentence and did not go on. After all, she did not know what relationship the man before her had with An Xiaoning. If they were close, any inappropriate thing she said might end up reaching An Xiaoning's ears.
”She's quite a disgusting person, right?”
