Chapter 563 - 441: Second Update

World Trade Center, 13th Floor, Chu Yi Omakase.

"Miss Zhu, I’ve ordered. What would you like to eat?" The handsome young man in a trench coat, named Zhao Ying, was looking down at the menu.

"Anything is fine." The lady referred to as Miss Zhu was the woman Ning Youguang helped retrieve a purse for earlier.

Her surname is Zhu, now Mrs. Zhao.

At this moment, Mrs. Zhao’s expression was very complex, filled with regret and more regret.

"Sigh..." She picked up the teacup, then put it down again. "I’m not feeling hungry, darling, you order a little less."

Zhao Ying smiled good-naturedly, "Then I’ll get you a single serving."

"Anything is fine." Mrs. Zhao’s mind was entirely not on eating, nor on drinking. "Darling, your junior is really extremely beautiful. Why haven’t you ever mentioned to me that there’s such a pretty girl at your school before?"

"I did mention it to you." Zhao Ying chuckled.

"When did you say it? Why don’t I remember?" Mrs. Zhao’s eyes widened slightly.

"Back in junior year when school had just started, I told you a few times that there’s a particularly beautiful and academically excellent junior in our school’s psychology department."

"..." Mrs. Zhao was stuck.

Her son definitely did mention things like this.

But the speaker was intentional, while the listener was unintentional.

Few years have passed, and now she vaguely remembers that during that time, her son often mentioned near her ear that a very outstanding junior had joined the school club. As for the rest, she doesn’t remember at all.

After being stunned for a while, she looked at her son and sighed, "Hmph, you just mentioned it in passing. How could I remember so much?"

"Besides, is your junior just particularly beautiful? She’s a Heavenly Immortal that no one can compare to, isn’t she? You should have told me back then that your school had a Little Fairy; I would’ve remembered clearly!"

"Mom." Zhao Ying felt a headache from his mother’s unreasonable argument, "Can we talk reasonably? I think ’particularly beautiful’ is a very precise term."

Mrs. Zhao couldn’t refute this, but she was still a bit upset, "Before, you have mentioned that an excellent junior joined your club, but every time you talked about her, it was always about club matters, so I never took it seriously."

"My interactions with her were all in the club, if not talking about club matters, what else could I say about her?" Zhao Ying felt helpless at his mother’s resentful gaze, wanting to laugh.

Mrs. Zhao looked at her son even more reproachfully, "Your temperament is exactly like your dad’s! Beyond work and study, you have no brains at all, sigh..."

Zhao Ying lightly laughed, shaking his head, "Work and study, just doing well at these already feels like my brain isn’t functioning properly."

"Hmph!" Mrs. Zhao turned away, not bothering to look at her son who wasn’t on the same channel as her, "Have some tea, have some tea, feeling so stuffy."

Zhao Ying was very tolerant of his mom’s occasional little tantrums.

He gently touched the outer wall of the tea cup that the waiter had poured, "It’s a bit hot, drink slowly."

His son was still a sensible, obedient good son, except...

Mrs. Zhao turned her head again, her plump, graceful face showing no anger, but sighing again, "My darling is so good, it would be even better if he could find a nice girlfriend."

"Mom..." Zhao Ying looked helpless, "Didn’t you promise to be an open-minded parent? Why bring this up all of a sudden?"

"I’m upset." Mrs. Zhao touched the bag beside her, her face puffed up, "I’ve had a nerve-wracking day, my emotions have been up and down, and now I’m really upset～"

"Should I call your husband and have him come and keep you company?" Zhao Ying’s eyes shifted slightly as he picked up his phone.

Mrs. Zhao immediately pressed down her son’s hand that was about to make the call, "Who wants that old man to keep them company?!

"Then what do you need to feel better?" Zhao Ying looked troubled, "The police just called to say the robber has been caught. Later, we’ll have someone check his criminal record to make sure he spends his life behind bars, right?"

"Who cares about him?" Mrs. Zhao glared.

"And your bag wasn’t damaged or lost, isn’t that something to be happy about?" Zhao Ying asked slowly.

"I was very happy at first..." Mrs. Zhao looked at her son’s handsome face, her eyes complex, "But now I’m unhappy."

"Why are you unhappy, tell me." Zhao Ying comforted with a good temper.

"The daughter-in-law I just set my sights on was gone in less than half an hour." Mrs. Zhao beat around the bush numerous times, but she couldn’t hide her little scheme in mind.

She was completely dejected.

Zhao Ying actually felt his mom’s little thoughts when she kept calling him frantically earlier. The reason he patiently teased her for so long was that he wanted to coax out her true thoughts.

"Set your sights on a daughter-in-law?" He asked slowly, "You mean Ning, the classmate?"

"Who else?" Mrs. Zhao thought of the girl who looked like a fairy and was skilled with her hands, then remembered she had a boyfriend, feeling as though she had lost hundreds of millions.

It felt awful.

"The top scorer in Jin City, a professor at the National Academy of Sciences at 26, and she has such a beautiful appearance, such an elite girl, what else to think of besides making her a daughter-in-law?"

"Mom, you’re right." Zhao Ying smiled and nodded, "I also think she’s suitable for both family and home."

"You?" Mrs. Zhao’s eyes instantly brightened.

"But you saw it..." Zhao Ying took off his glasses, leaned back in the chair, and sighed regretfully, "Such an excellent, suitable girl is now in someone else’s home."

"I did see it." Mrs. Zhao moved closer to her son, "That’s why I’m upset."

"What would make you feel better?" Zhao Ying slowly put his glasses back on.

"Yes, what would make me feel better?" Mrs. Zhao tilted her head to think, "Her boyfriend is also good-looking."

At this, she turned to look at her son, "Honestly, I think that young man is even more handsome than you. Your junior is smart and has good taste..."

"A bunch of standing grass, he is like a jade, indeed a good appearance." Zhao Ying propped his nose with his hand, chuckling lightly.

At the same time, recalling the young man he saw downstairs holding Ning Youguang, a face that was hard to portray yet unforgettable.

The most intriguing part was the way the other person’s gaze fell on him.

A very good-looking pair of eyes clearly full of smiles yet filled with hidden waves, akin to a sharp blade, akin to rain, made his carved-like features more appealing.

"I just remembered, seems like I’ve seen him before." Zhao Ying said playfully.

"You know Youguang’s boyfriend?" Mrs. Zhao was surprised.

"I don’t know him." Zhao Ying slowly shook his head, "I once accidentally saw her video chatting with him."
