A Date, I Want to Be Ancestor Man!

Seeing how quickly she replied, Li Yang was a little surprised. But on second thought, his eyes lit up. His fingers tapped rapidly across the nine-key keyboard as he replied, "Have you had dinner? I know a private kitchen place. Not sure how the food tastes, but want to try it together and chat while we eat?"

Chen Qian: Mm, where is it? Is it convenient?

Seeing the reply, the arm holding Li Yang's phone trembled slightly. He quickly found the contact information for the private kitchen he had noticed on his commute and called them.

"Hello, do you still have any tables available? Two people? Great, I'd like to make a reservation. Yes, a private room. My number is..."

The call went through, and fortunately, they still had an opening. Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief and immediately reserved a private room over the phone. Then he swiftly switched back to his chat with Chen Qian, tapped Location, and sent his location.

Location information

"I just called and reserved a private room. Convenient? 😁"

Chen Qian: Then I'll freshen up a little and get there before six-thirty.

Li Yang's eyes brightened, and he rapidly tapped out a reply: "Okay, I'll wait for you at the entrance."

Chen Qian: Mm-hm.

After receiving the last message, Li Yang checked the time. It was exactly 5:40. He quickly turned off his screen, went to the bathroom, and used a towel to wipe the sweat from his face and neck. Looking at himself in the mirror, he felt dazed.

It had only been one day since he obtained the World Gate and gained twenty million, yet the person in the mirror seemed like an entirely different man.

His spirits were high, and a natural air of confidence and composure showed between his brows. He wore an expensive suit... even if it was rented.

But in any case, everything was about to change.

Walking out of the bathroom, Li Yang looked around his cramped rented room. Thinking about the blind date target who was about to meet him in a private dining room—and who happened to be his blind date target's younger brother's blind date target—a brilliant smile spread across his face.

Those who upheld moral principles were good people.

Those with corrupt morals were bad people.

But those who stood in between, casting worldly conventions aside, were called Ancestor Men!

Getting involved with his blind date target's younger brother's blind date target seemed to violate certain moral standards, but... the thrill was worth it!

It was really thrilling!

Looking at the twenty million in cash on his phone, Li Yang strode out the door.

"Now, the world has suddenly opened up before me."

He looked at the city outside the window. Oh, the world really was wonderful!

"..."

After leaving the residential complex, he only had to walk a short distance before the classically decorated private kitchen appeared before him. As he considered buying a car, Li Yang gave his phone number to the front desk and was led to his reserved room. What surprised him was that there were very few diners at this hour. No wonder the staff had been so polite despite him never having visited before, and why he had been able to get a reservation...

Grumbling inwardly, Li Yang did not care much. He took the menu and looked it over. Every dish was light in flavor, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face. He directly ordered five dishes that looked good and were rather expensive, plus a soup. After thinking it over, he did not order any more. He asked for staples and drinks, then handed the menu back to the server.

"Sir, would you like the dishes served now?"

After taking the menu, the server asked respectfully. Li Yang checked his phone. It was already six o'clock. After some thought, he told the server to begin serving at 6:15. The server nodded, turned and left, closing the private room door behind him and leaving Li Yang alone inside.

"The privacy is really well done."

Looking around the wooden private room, Li Yang muttered inwardly, quite satisfied.

He just did not know how the food would taste.

The girl had not arrived yet, so he could not help thinking about more things—such as what kind of life he would begin after getting to know her.

If things worked out between them, did he really want to marry her?

Li Yang frowned, feeling that he was not prepared for that. But after thinking again, he felt he was worrying too much. Even if they were compatible, they would still have at least a year or half a year of dating ahead of them. They could talk about it after that.

But no matter what, returning to Heyang was always a good choice.

Leave this place directly?

Li Yang took a sip of the tea prepared in the private room, somewhat hesitant. Linhai was known as a paradise for the rich, a city of magic. He now seemed qualified to survive here.

For nothing else, buying a house would not be a problem, although it would shrink his funds considerably.

But what remained would already be enough to live on, wouldn't it?

Besides, with a world in his hands, he had made twenty million on the very first day. Would he lack money in the future?

Even if he did not live here, having some assets here would not interfere with anything. It would even let him enjoy life better.

He could leisurely explore the world in Heyang on ordinary days, and whenever he got tired, run off to Magic City to relax. Setting aside everything else, he was very interested in the respectable private clubs Manager Wang, who worked in the gold trade, had mentioned!

Chen Qian: Brother Yang, I'm at the location.

As he was lost in thought, his phone vibrated. Picking it up, he saw the message from Chen Qian. He raised his brows, immediately stood, and called her through WeChat.

"Hello?"

A soft, syrupy voice came from the other end of the call. Just hearing it made Li Yang feel pleased all over. He walked out of the private room and asked as he went down the stairs, "Did you get to the location I sent you? Can you see Yunxiang Private Kitchen?"

"I see it. I'm right across the street."

Chen Qian's voice came through the phone. Li Yang hurried down the stairs and walked out of the first floor. Looking ahead, he saw Chen Qian still wearing a red shirt, blue socks, and little white sneakers. Brimming with youthful energy, she held her phone to her ear as she spoke with him. A smile immediately appeared on his face. He raised a hand to greet her, and she promptly hung up and walked over.

"Brother Yang."

Chen Qian walked up to Li Yang with both hands behind her back, flashing a sweet, toothy smile. Her legs came lightly together.

"Right on time. Come on, let's eat first."

Li Yang gave the girl a brilliant smile, then turned and led her toward the private room. Chen Qian nodded with a smile and followed him inside. They arrived just as it was time for the dishes to be served. The server brought out five dishes and a soup, along with staples and drinks, setting them on the table one after another.

"Sir, all your dishes have been served. If you need anything, press the bell and we will come right away. Enjoy your meal."

After serving the food, the server bowed and withdrew. In an instant, only Li Yang, Chen Qian, and a table full of dishes remained in the private room.

"Why did you order so much? The two of us can't finish all this."

Chen Qian watched the server leave, placed her small handbag on the seat, and set her phone at the edge of the table. Looking at the spread of dishes, she could not help asking Li Yang.

"I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I ordered more. When it comes to food, eating well is what matters most. Go ahead and eat. If there's nothing you like, we can order more from the menu."

A smile appeared on Li Yang's face as he pointed to the menu beside them. Chen Qian nodded with a smile. Since they had eaten lunch together and spent the entire afternoon having fun, she did not stand on ceremony. Only after picking up a bite of food with her chopsticks did she look at him and softly ask, "Brother Yang, what did you ask me here to talk about?"

"Eat first. We'll talk after we're done."

Li Yang glanced at Chen Qian's slender bosom and fair neck, his gaze flickering as he spoke softly.
