So why did fate arrange for her to see the news from her father only after she had already ended the blind date early, refused the dinner invitation, and completely exposed herself as a fool in front of the blind date?

What Shi Yuanhua said on WeChat wasn't serious. It was just that he was as sharp as Shi Jiajia and had already sensed her father's possible reaction in advance if he knew her true behavior in front of her blind date today.

Deducting pocket money is light.

Shi Jiajia swallowed directly at the phone.

She raised her head and looked around in a panic, knowing that it was best not to go back to this home now.

……

Xu Huaisen saw Shi Jiajia, who was going on a blind date today, coming out of the coffee shop alone.

There was no blind date standing next to her.

He has never been on a blind date, but he can guess what this probably means——

At least this blind date was not successful enough that the two people fell in love at first sight and became inseparable immediately.

After Xu Huaisen guessed the result, he lightly tapped his fingers on the steering wheel, and then his whole body suddenly felt a little unexpected beyond the situation. He was just here to replace the driver for a day, and now he started to guess about Shi Jiajia's blind date. result.

Xu Huaisen got up and got off the car at the right time before Shi Jiajia arrived.

When Shi Jiajia saw Assistant Xu who had been waiting outside during her blind date, she seemed to look at him twice more and sat in the back seat as usual. Then she hurried when Xu Huaisen started the car and started asking if he was going home now. Answer: "No."

When Shi Jiajia answered, she instantly leaned forward. She held the back of the passenger seat with one hand, as if she was afraid that he would send her back to her parents now.

Xu Huaisen noticed that Shi Jiajia's reaction seemed a bit intense.

Shi Jiajia was obviously aware of this. She sat back down slightly embarrassed and repeated to Xu Huaisen: "Don't go back yet."

If you don't go home, where will you go?

As far as she knew, Shiyang had a date with Gu Ci tonight. He couldn't go home and couldn't find a good sister. It was almost dinner time. For the first time in his life, Shi Jiajia felt confused. , as if I don’t know where to go.

Forget it, let’s go eat first.

I can’t go home but I have to eat.

Shi Jiajia made this decision first and searched in her mind for any restaurants that she wanted to visit recently. After thinking of a few, she felt that eating alone was a bit boring.

Shi Jiajia thought about it and gradually turned her attention to the front seat, Assistant Xu who was the driver today.

To be fair, since they were trapped in the elevator together and had some personal relationships outside of work, Shi Jiajia regarded Xu Huaisen as a friend from the bottom of her heart, not a tool driver who was only responsible for driving, or a subordinate who helped her work.

"Assistant Xu," Shi Jiajia asked tentatively, "do you have any plans for the evening?"

Knowing that since the substitute driver was here, the whole day should be free, but Shi Jiajia still thought it would be safer to ask.

When Xu Huaisen heard Shi Jiajia suddenly ask him this, he still answered truthfully: "No."

Shi Jiajia immediately smiled: "That's okay anyway. How about I invite you to dinner."

Xu Huaisen looked in the rearview mirror and saw the girl in the back seat who was inviting her enthusiastically. For a moment, he seemed a little stunned.

……

Xu Huaisen drove to a hot pot restaurant.

The two arrived early, just in time to catch up with the last empty table in the hot pot restaurant. The waiter greeted him warmly. Xu Huaisen pulled out his chair and sat down, looking at Shi Jiajia opposite who had already taken out his mobile phone and started to scan the QR code to order.

The driver today seemed to be a little different from what he expected.

At least in his expectation, the driver's job should not include having dinner with the young lady who didn't want to go home and couldn't make an appointment.

Xu Huaisen looked at Shi Jiajia, who was lowering his head and ordering food seriously, and suddenly became curious about what happened in Shi Jiajia's blind date this afternoon, and what kind of person Shi Yuanfeng introduced to this precious daughter.

After Shi Jiajia ordered her meal, she looked up and saw that Xu Huaisen hadn't touched her phone, so she handed her phone to him directly: "Assistant Xu, do you think there is anything else you want to eat?"

Xu Huaisen came back to his senses and took Shi Jiajia's cell phone and saw that she had already ordered portions for two people, so he returned the cell phone with a smile: "No more, thank you."

The waiter brought the bottom of the pot, and the spicy butter hot pot began to boil gurglingly.

Shi Jiajia enters a state of selflessness as soon as she eats. She doesn't think about anything or listen to anything. The duck intestines and shrimps keep slipping off the pot. Her spicy shasha always puts her head down and takes a sip of coke, and her eyes don't forget to stare at the next meal. Come down and eat the food in your stomach.

Shi Jiajia was already almost full. When she looked up, she realized that Xu Huaisen didn't seem to have used his chopsticks much tonight.

The man's oil dish was almost as refreshing as when he first ate it.

"Assistant Xu," Shi Jiajia swallowed a mouthful of shrimp slippery, "Why don't you eat it?"

She thinks this hot pot restaurant is quite delicious.

Xu Huaisen watched Jiajia eating seriously for nearly an hour. Seeing that she finally paid attention to other things at this moment, he smiled and replied: "I can't eat spicy food very well."

Shi Jiajia looked at the bottom of the all-red pot she ordered.

"..."

Why did she forget to ask the other person if they like spicy food before ordering.

So Xu Huaisen just watched her eating from the opposite side in silence the whole night?

She asked for a meal, but the other party couldn't eat the food she invited. Although to a certain extent, she was the eldest lady and could just ignore her own happiness, but at this moment, Shi Jiajia still felt very embarrassed.

At the same time, Shi Jiajia once again had a deeper and more intuitive understanding of Xu Huaisen's professionalism as a subordinate, as well as the two people's sense of identity boundaries.

She wished she had never seen Xu Huaisen as a driver without being an assistant.

As long as he was in front of her, even if she took the initiative to invite her to dinner tonight, the man would still maintain a meticulous working attitude. He said he was "accompanying" her to eat, but in fact he was still sitting quietly opposite and watching her eat food that he couldn't eat. He wouldn't even ask for a mandarin duck hotpot.

Shi Jiajia suddenly felt that the meal was a bit boring.

But she seemed like she couldn't just say, "Don't treat me like a eldest lady all the time. You don't need to be so clear-cut about public and private when you have a meal in private." Shi Jiajia looked at Xu Huaisen, feeling as if she had been punched in the cotton.

The two came out of the hot pot restaurant.

Shi Jiajia looked at the time and it was still not time to go home.

The streets were a little empty at night, with busy flying insects surrounded by the yellow light of the street lamps. Shi Jiajia was wandering boredly on the streets, and Xu Huaisen followed her silently.

Shi Jiajia began to worry about how she would explain today's blind date to Shi Yuanfeng when she went home tonight.

She said that she and Professor Gao had a pleasant chat and had dinner together in the afternoon, and her father would not blame her even if they felt they were not suitable for each other. However, if Gao Ze’s confession was different from hers, she would provide details. It would be terrible to get to the specific content of the blind date between the two.

Shi Jiajia frowned as she thought about it. When she saw the shadows of her and Xu Huaisen on the ground, she suddenly asked: "Assistant Xu,"

"Do you like Bada Shanren's paintings?"

After Shi Jiajia asked, she began to wait for Xu Huaisen's answer with some anticipation.

Maybe she wasn't the only one who didn't know about Bada Shanren. After all, Assistant Xu was not a literary person, so she felt that Bada Shanren was operated by eight people and it wasn't a big deal. The level of exposure was not a big deal.

Then, she heard a gentle male voice behind her: "I don't know much about ancient ink painting."

"But I really like his "Picture of Plum Blossoms". The pen and ink are very concise, but the outline is rare and expressive."

After Shi Jiajia heard the man's answer: "..."

"........."

"…………"

So Xu Huaisen, who majored in business, also knew that Bada Shanren was not eight people, and could even name one of his masterpieces to comment on?

Shi Jiajia looked up at the sky. There was a feeling of messiness in the wind on the street at night.

Xu Huaisen froze when he saw Shi Jiajia's back.

He didn't know why Shi Jiajia suddenly asked him about Bada Shanren, but when she asked him, she subconsciously felt that the topic of Bada Shanren didn't seem to match Shi Jiajia's character.

Xu Huaisen watched Shi Jiajia's back looking up at the sky.

He knew that Shi Jiajia should already trust him without any hesitation.

Trusting his every move, trusting him to join Yuanfeng Group just to be a business assistant, trusting him enough to even treat him as a personal assistant to a meal when he couldn't find anyone.

Xu Huaisen's eyes were as dark as the endless night. Vehicles were speeding past on the road from time to time. He moved his lips and wanted to say something. When he stepped forward, Shi Jiajia also turned around.

Shi Jiajia was about to say to Assistant Xu, how could you come to be my assistant if you are so talented? Wouldn't it be a humiliation for you to be my assistant? But as soon as she turned around, she saw the man's Adam's apple in front of her eyes and a soft warmth on his forehead.

Xu Huaisen's lips pressed against her forehead.
