Chapter 26

Ren Kuan didn't show up in the morning, and naturally he won't show up at noon either. As Duan Jiakang said, today's date is not just for a meal.

After waking up, he not only made a reservation for the restaurant, but also bought two movie tickets by the way. For Ren Kuan, such things as dating are within his grasp. It's only a few months' window, so it's not unfamiliar.

After packing everything at home, it was just after ten o'clock, and he looked at the numbers on his phone in a daze. Usually, at this time, the store just got busy.

The scene of passing through the stairs flashed through his mind. Earlier, when he walked up the stairs step by step, Maoer jumped into his eyes little by little, and Maoer would sit at the door of the massage shop and wait for him.

He would look up at his innocent little face and say courteously, "Brother Kuan, you are here!"

Ren Kuan stood there blankly holding his phone, he didn't show up today, will Jiuer wait and how long will he wait?If I had known this earlier, I should have made it clear to him last night.

It's just a blind date, and it's not something shameful, why does he have to cover up in front of Jiu'er, what is he avoiding?

A burst of rapid cell phone ringing interrupted Ren Kuan's thoughts. The name of Pei Qin was on the caller ID. The two had only contacted a few times in a hurry. Ren Kuan found that Pei Qin was a capable and neat woman.

Many times can be willing to call rather than text.

"Ren Kuan, I'm ready to go out now, see you later."

It's already at this point, Ren Kuan is not hesitant, let's put aside the matter of Jiu'er for now, "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Ren Kuan picked up the key on the shoe cabinet. He had a motorcycle helmet in his hand. He held the key and deliberated for a while, but finally he didn't go out by bike.

Hiding the truth from Jiu'er is enough to make Ren Kuan feel guilty, but if he can't keep the previous promise, he is afraid that he will be ashamed to see Jiu'er again.

Pei Qin was very punctual, and Ren Kuan and her arrived at the agreed place one after the other.

The photo that Pei Qin sent to Ren Kuan earlier was a photo of her work certificate. After seeing Pei Qin in person, Ren Kuan found that she was much gentler than he imagined, very cheerful and not procrastinating.

If Ren Kuan had to make an evaluation of the blind date, it would be very good. This kind of good is good in all aspects.

Regardless of their identities and backgrounds, working ages, personalities and hobbies, they seem to be a good match, except that Ren Kuan lives a more romantic life, while Pei Qin is more pragmatic.

After hearing that Ren Kuan bought two movie tickets, Pei Qin was silent for a while, and then agreed, "Okay, I thought I was just eating today."

Both of them are talkative. Pei Qin's speech is clear and logical. After chatting about the situation at home, what she and Ren Kuan talk about most is the interesting things at work.

Ren Kuanhui would say a few words about his feelings after Pei Qin paused, until Pei Qin suddenly said, "I'm the one talking, what about you?"

The location of my small restaurant is awkward, and those things about Yingying Yanyan are very inappropriate for this kind of occasion.

The days on the street are very peaceful, even the guests who come and go are boring and mediocre day after day.

But Ren Kuan always felt very light and fulfilled. What on earth was he busy with?

With a heartbeat, Ren Kuan said meaningfully, "Have you ever come into contact with a blind person?"

Blind people belong to the disadvantaged group in society. They are like ants, living in places that ordinary people cannot often touch. You may hear it mentioned by others, but when you think back, there are not many blind people in your memory.

Apparently Pei Qin didn't expect Ren Kuan to ask such a question. Even though she was engaged in the service industry, she rarely came into contact with blind people.

Pei Qin shook her head uncertainly, "Rarely...why would you ask such a question?"

"I didn't have it before." Ren Kuan's expression softened as he spoke, "I used to think that life for the blind would be a lot of inconvenience..."

This statement is wrong, Ren Kuan paused for a while, as if he was looking for an appropriate word, "I never thought that some blind people could... live like a healthy person..."

"There is a kid near my store. If you don't tell me that he can't see, sometimes I think he is a healthy person. He is very independent. He remembers every road nearby and the location of everything in their store..." Ren Kuan spoke up on his own.

Pei Qin nodded from time to time, unable to see whether she was interested in this topic, "I have lived there for a long time, and it has become a habit."

To someone who has little experience with the blind, this sounds like practice makes perfect.

But Ren Kuan didn't think so, he simply thought that Jiu'er was very powerful, beyond his understanding of blind people, he wanted to gain Pei Qin's approval in the tone of a parent showing off his children.

Not getting the surprise Ren Kuan expected, he pursed his lips and thought about whether his topic was too boring, "You don't know him, so it seems inappropriate to talk about him with you."

Pei Qin was noncommittal and shrugged.

In the following conversation, Ren Kuan seemed a little timid, and his nerves were still tense until watching the movie.

The movie ended at nine o'clock in the evening, Ren Kuan thought that no matter what the outcome of the date was, he had to have a beginning and an end, at least he had to send the person home.

"I'll take you back." Before Pei Qin could reply, Ren Kuan's cell phone rang out as if urging him to die. He looked at the number and frowned, "I'll answer the call."

The moment the connection was made, the woman on the other end of the phone seemed to be grabbing a life-saving straw in surprise, "Boss Ren!"

It's Wang Rui.

Ren Kuan could feel the tense atmosphere from her tone, he couldn't think of anything other than the matter of Jiu'er, "What's wrong?"

The next moment, what Ren Kuan heard was not Wang Rui's voice, but Jiu'er's piercing screams. The screams were so penetrating that even Pei Qin was startled.

Wang Rui didn't let Ren Kuan listen for too long. After she took the phone, she was very calm, "Boss Ren, it's past nine o'clock, and the neighbors are asleep any later. Jiu'er has been barking for almost an hour. I don't care about you guys." What kind of agreement did the two have, you asked him to calm down, he has been waiting for you for a day."

Ren Kuan's heart twitched violently. He had no agreement with Jiu'er, it was just a habit, but this trivial change was enough to make him feel guilty.

Last night, he had many opportunities to confess to Jiu'er. It was obviously very simple to say "I have something to do tomorrow, so I won't come to the store", but he just couldn't say it.

Jiu'er's scream was still very clear, but because of the distance, it became much smaller. Ren Kuan looked at Pei Qin in embarrassment, and Pei Qin was signaling him to get busy if he had something to do.

Ren Kuan lowered his eyes, "Then I'll come over right away."

He understood what Wang Rui meant by "waiting for a day". Jiu'er was very stubborn. He could imagine Jiu'er sitting at the door in a daze. Just thinking about it made Ren Kuan feel guilty and flustered.
