Chapter 66 - Failed by him. (1/2)

When Jing Lihua opened the door, for a moment she forgot everything. In front of her stood an incredibly handsome man. His eyes shone like dark gems. His features were clear and chiselled. He was tall, almost a head over Jing Lihua's head. In the fitting custom made tuxedo, he looked unreasonably hot.

He was already ridiculously hot, to begin with, but within that dress, his allure went to an entirely different level. Jing Lihua was so lost staring at him that she didn't even see him placing fresh roses in her hands.

”Um...” Jing Lihua didn't know what to say. She had planned to make him feel inferior with her looks but it seemed like the situation was inverted. She was the one feeling inferior in front of him.

”You look beautiful,” Li Zhiqiang said smoothly.

And uncontrollably Jing Lihua blushed. It was not her fault, alright? Who wouldn't blush being called beautiful by such a hot piece of meat?

”Come in. Let me place the roses in a vase.” Jing Lihua said the first thing that came to her mind. Because, for reason, her mind went blank in front of him. And she was no longer the calm, collected woman.

Facing away from him while putting the roses in a vase, she gritted her teeth and took a few deep breaths to bring herself under control. Finally, when her heart slowed down, with a calm smile she faced him.

”I agreed to dinner with you. I think it should make up for you saving me. After today, we would be even.”

Li Zhiqiang kept standing at the door. He didn't come in. ”Say that after tonight.”

Jing Lihua followed him to the elevator. If Jing Lihua was infatuated by his looks, the same was also true for Li Zhiqiang. He had noticed how prettily she was prepared. When he said she looked 'beautiful' he meant it. And to think that she prepare so eagerly for the dinner with him, his heart felt strange happiness. Was she trying to impress him?

Did that mean she was attracted by him?

While Li Zhiqiang's head was filled with thoughts full of hearts, Jing Lihua was making evil schemes in her mind. When Li Zhiqiang guided her to a private garage, Jing Lihua paused for a moment.

She had already failed him in one place. ”Don't tell me he's got a better car than me. How am I supposed to act like I'm looking down upon him and bring my new custom made car to show off and make him feel inferior? All of Mei Xiu's efforts would go to waste.” Jing Lihua had planned to laugh at his car and tell him she wasn't going to ride in that lowly vehicle. Then she had wanted to bring in her car to show off.

Feeling a little lost Jing Lihua walked with him and what awaited her made her head numb.

This model...

”Is that the logo from that... from that Japnese company?” She had been browsing through the famous brands before ordering a car from a famous Chinese company. So it was only natural she recognized the car company.

”My date is knowledgeable.” Li Zhiqiang praised her. It seemed like his brother's method was working. His JingJing looked impressed. If the date goes successful, he would give a huge gift to his brother.

Unbeknownst to Li Zhiqiang, Jing Lihua was not impressed, she just felt like crying. Wah! She failed in second place too! No worries, there will be more chances in the future. Yes!
