Chapter 1 - A Blind Date? (1/2)
Li Qin Yao didn't mean to eavesdrop to others' conversation.
In her defense, she could not avoid herself from eavesdropping as the man was seated just beside her. Besides, that man had a charming voice.
Anyway, she was probably too bored.
Li Qin Yao was having his dinner in a local sushi restaurant all by herself after her best friend, Han Yue Xiu, texted her that she had an emergency at work and that she was probably going to show up late to their date.
At that time, Li Qin Yao was eyeing her favorite sushi on the conveyor belt when she sensed that someone had sat down on her left side.
She turned to catch a glimpse at the man, but because his back was facing her, Li Qin Yao could not get a clear look of his face. All she could see was the back of his head, his sort, dark, black hair and his broad shoulder.
She did, however, caught a glimpse of the man's company— a pretty young lady with long, dark hair and a pair of bright eyes. She was looking at him as if he was the only person who exists in this world.
From her observation, it seemed like the person who sat next to her was on a date?
Li Qin Yao turned around from the couple before the two caught her staring and embarrassed herself. She decided to mind her own business until she heard his voice. He had the kind of voice that she liked. Deep, rich, vibrating. The voice that can make her ears ticklish and her heart runs as if she had completed a marathon.
”No, I'm usually too busy with things that I don't have time to see anyone,” she heard the man beside her spoke. He tried to speak in a lower voice, but that only makes his voice sound richer.
Li Qin Yao grabbed the cup in front of her and drank.
Her ears could pick up to the couple's conversations since she had nothing else to do. However, Li Qin Yao's drinks almost spilled out as she heard the girl's self-introduction.
Judging from how they began the conversation with an introduction like this, could it be that they had a blind date? But, who on earth would start an introduction with how much they earn yearly? It was a big no-no as this will only give the wrong impression that the girl is materialistic. Unless of course, if the man was looking for a rich lady to support his life.
Li Qin Yao glanced at the girl with sympathy.
”I heard that you are in sales.” The girl's smile widened, and she blinked her eyes prettily.
