Eyes Don't Lie

Once it's time to leave work...

Xie Jiujiu then happily took a lollipop and walked over to Tang Yu, Tang Yu it to her.

Jiang Caixia rummaged through her bag and pulled out a piece of chocolate, handing it to Tang Yu.

After the two women delivered the food, they both looked at Tang Yu with smiles.

"You want me to take you home, right?"

Tang Yu was both amused and exasperated. Ever since she had given them a ride a few times...

The two of them are now addicted to hitchhiking.

"Xiao Tang, my grandma always says that colleagues should help each other, and a car is prone to breaking down if it's not driven often."

Xie Jiujiu chuckled.

"Yes, yes, I'm grateful to my boss for giving me the opportunity to drive."

Tang Yu smiled helplessly, turned off the computer, and then realized that she had forgotten her car keys again.

"Wait for me a moment, I'll go get the car keys."

After greeting the two women, Tang Yu ran back to the apartment complex's parking garage.

He had already sent a message to Tang Keke on the way.

When they arrived at the garage, Tang Keke was already waiting with the keys in her hand.

When Tang Yu reached for the car keys.

Tang Keke was staring at him with a blank expression.

What would you like to eat?

"I don't want to eat anything; I want to save Dad some money."

"So good?"

Tang Yu felt that something was off.

Damn it, I'm not short of money.

"Yes, yes, mainly because school is expensive..."

Tang Keke said with an understanding expression.

"Dream on. Go to school next week and I'll take you out to eat when I get back."

Tang Yu flicked her forehead and then drove to find Jiang Caixia and the others.

Tang Keke sighed deeply on the spot.

Is this the suffering that every human being must endure?

After picking up Jiang Caixia and the other woman, Tang Yu was about to drive Xie Jiujiu, who wasn't far away, back home first.

Xie Jiujiu said, "Xiao Tang, you take Xiao Jiang home first. I want to see Xiao Jiang home."

Why?

Tang Yu asked, puzzled.

Jiang Caixia looked at her Keke but brainless team leader with a puzzled expression.

"I'm afraid that after Xiao Jiang's blind date today, she'll fall in love, get married, get pregnant, and leave the company. Today will be the turning point for our separation."

Xie Jiujiu sighed.

Jiang Caixia widened her eyes and shook her head vigorously, indicating that she would not do such a thing.

Tang Yu smiled but didn't reply. After driving Jiang Caixia home, Jiang's father was already waiting at the door.

He was just about to drive to the company to pick up his daughter.

I saw that Tang Yu had helped bring her daughter back again.

He nodded to Tang Yu in thanks.

Jiang's mother had just changed into a beautiful dress and came out of the house.

Upon seeing Tang Yu, she greeted him warmly.

"Oh my, my dear nephew is here! Look at all this! I was just about to go to our elders' house with your uncle and the others, so I won't be able to entertain you today. You absolutely have to come to my house for dinner this week during your holiday, and so does Jiu Jiu."

"Okay, Auntie."

Tang Yu smiled, already used to Jiang's mother's enthusiasm.

"Auntie, I want to eat sweet and sour pork and chicken stew with mushrooms."

Xie Jiujiu swallowed hard.

"Okay, okay, Auntie will make some for you later."

Jiang's mother walked over and pinched Xie Jiujiu's cheek, quite pleased with her daughter's two colleagues.

"Xiao Jiang, remember to report your blind date situation in the group chat."

Xie Jiujiu waved to Jiang Caixia with a grin; the three of them had a small work group chat.

However, we never discussed work in the group chat.

They mostly talked about what to eat today and some news.

Xie Jiujiu was the main one talking non-stop, Tang Yu was saying yes and yes, and Jiang Caixia was just quietly watching the drama unfold.

Jiang Caixia nodded vigorously, her eyes wide as she watched Tang Yu and the other person leave.

After Tang Yu and her companion left, Jiang's father drove his wife and daughter to Dean Gu's house.

Dean Gu lives in the staff quarters of the Huaxia Academy of Sciences.

After the family arrived.

Ye Qingshan had arrived before them and was in the kitchen helping Dean Gu's wife wash vegetables.

"Oh, Xiao Jiang, you're here! I thought you wouldn't arrive until mealtime."

After seeing that Jiang Caixia and her family had arrived.

Dean Gu went to open the door, shook hands with Mr. Jiang with a smile.

Jiang's father and daughter, Jiang Caixia, nodded together, which was considered as a way of greeting Dean Gu.

"It's been almost half a year since I last saw you, teacher. You still look so energetic! By the way, teacher, weren't you going to introduce a young man to my daughter? Where is he? Let me take a look."

Jiang's mother looked around the room.

Dean Gu was somewhat amused and exasperated, and looked at Jiang's father to ask.

"Xiao Jiang, how did you, a quiet and reserved person, manage to marry such a lively and beautiful wife?"

Father Jiang blushed and his gaze darted away.

Mother Jiang chuckled and said, "He writes me letters. Although he's not good with words, he's not bad with his hands."

"Writing letters is fine too. Young people these days don't write letters anymore; they just send WeChat messages."

Dean Gu laughed heartily and then called out to the kitchen.

"Xiao Ye, stop helping in the kitchen and come out."

Ye Qingshan, who was helping in the kitchen, had already heard the commotion outside.

Hearing Dean Gu call him, he came out of the kitchen and looked at Jiang Caixia with feigned surprise.

"Jiang?"

Jiang Caixia looked at Ye Qingshan with a blank expression.

"What, you two know each other?"

Jiang's mother, however, asked with a look of schadenfreude, as if she were watching a spectacle unfold.

Jiang Caixia nodded awkwardly.

She truly hadn't expected that the person Grandpa Gu was going to introduce would be Ye Qingshan.

Mr. Jiang was also a little embarrassed, suddenly remembering that he had forgotten to send Ye Qingshan's photo to his daughter last time. It turned out he was an acquaintance?

"Hello, uncles and aunts. We met when Jiang came to our school as an exchange student."

Ye Qingshan stepped forward to explain.

"Wow, that young man is quite well-educated."

Mother Jiang praised with a smile.

However, unlike the parents of women on blind dates, she didn't bombard the other party with questions.

Instead, he sent his own daughter to talk to Ye Qingshan directly.

She then pulled Mr. Jiang and Dean Gu into the study to sit and chat.

After gaining some space to be alone with Jiang Caixia.

Ye Qingshan quickly put on his most standard, gentle smile and asked.

"Jiang, would you like some tea? Or something else? I'll pour you some."

Jiang Caixia saw Ye Qingshan's smile.

I suddenly remembered what my senior colleague Tang Yu had told me when I was at work.

Then I remembered the woman who came to the bar looking for Ye Qingshan that day.

She swallowed hard, shook her head, and looked at Ye Qingshan with a slightly evasive gaze.

"Is she shy because of that evasive look in her eyes?"

After seeing Jiang Caixia's eyes.

Ye Qingshan secretly rejoiced.

You can't be wrong, your eyes don't lie!

Back in the Ugly Country, countless women gave him that look.

I like you, but I'm afraid you'll notice, so my eyes dart away!

After thinking about it this way, all the pressure he had been feeling for a while vanished completely.

As long as she's interested in me!

Then winning her over would be a piece of cake.

"Alright then, here's some washed fruit. Help yourself if you like."

Ye Qingshan pointed to the fruit on the table and invited it over.

Jiang Caixia nodded and remained silent.
