133: Seventh blind date

Yan Li and Tao Xia were warmly chatting with Chen Qius Parents.

Meanwhile, Yan Baiwei, at the side, keenly noticed the difference in her parents' attitude.

Yan Li treated them as if they were the parents of a leader.

Tao Xia, on the other hand, was more like a relative, casually chatting with in-laws.

As for her, her attention was focused on a girl standing behind Chen Qiu's mother.

She was very beautiful, clearly the type Chen Qiu would like.

As the two girls' eyes met, Yan Baiwei clearly sensed a faint hostility from Xu Jia towards her.

Yan Baiwei shifted her gaze, her eyes flickering slightly.

"She likes Chen Qiu!"

With just a glance, Yan Baiwei was certain in her heart.

At this moment, Chen Qiu walked over.

He greeted Yan Li.

"Uncle Yan."

Then he looked at Tao Xia.

This was his first time meeting Yan Baiwei's mother, and her scrutinizing gaze made Chen Qiu feel a little flustered.

After all, he had just slept with her daughter yesterday.

"Hello, Auntie Tao."

"In the future, I'll have to trouble you to take good care of our Weiwei in all aspects!"

Tao Xia said with a beaming smile.

She was quite satisfied with Chen Qiu.

He was tall, handsome, and refined; standing next to her daughter, they looked like a perfect match!

"Don't worry, Auntie."

Chen Qiu's eyelids twitched slightly.

The way she said that, could it be that his and the Class Monitor's matter had already been discovered?

He arranged for the family to be seated.

Afterward, Xu Jia leaned in.

"Is that beauty just now the designer of your new house?"

"Or your high school classmate?"

Chen Qiu looked at Xu Jia, who had a probing tone, and chuckled softly.

"Isn't she beautiful?"

Xu Jia looked at Chen Qiu in surprise, not expecting him to so openly say that someone was beautiful.

This, in turn, made her seem overly suspicious.

Besides... "I'm no one to Chen Qiu, why am I getting so jealous!"

Xu Jia fumed inwardly, but the expression on her pretty face remained unchanged.

"She is very beautiful. Was she your high school Campus Belle?"

"Absolutely!"

Chen Qiu nodded.

Then, with a hint of deeper meaning, he looked at Xu Jia in front of him and teased.

"After graduation, I kept wondering: I was good buddies with the Campus Belle in junior high, and desk mates with the Campus Belle in high school, but I never once dated. I regret it immensely!"

Xu Jia understood that the junior high Campus Belle Chen Qiu mentioned was herself, and the high school Campus Belle was the one just now... Regret?

Under Chen Qiu's gaze, Xu Jia's heart stirred slightly, and she unnaturally averted her eyes.

Taking a deep breath, she narrowed her eyes and asked again.

"So, do you regret not making a move in junior high, or high school?"

"Both!"

"That's why I understood a truth after growing up!"

"Having it all is the true way!"

Hearing Chen Qiu's joking words, Xu Jia paused, then playfully poked his waist.

"You want it all? Can your small frame handle it?"

With that, she didn't give Chen Qiu a chance to say 'try me,' and directly moved and turned around.

"I'm not talking to you anymore, more people are coming."

Looking at Xu Jia's retreating figure, Chen Qiu's lips curved slightly.

People, they still need to be a bit bolder.

Didn't you see how those blind date girls were all making wishes without a care? No loss if it doesn't work out, a huge profit if it does!

Even 'three-no' products dare to ask for a lifetime guarantee, let alone Chen Qiu, who has everything one could want.

This strong team's playstyle, one still has to learn it!

...After the banquet began.

Xu Jia, Yan Baiwei, and Zhang Mantong were seated at three different tables.

Beside Zhang Mantong, Shao Shushuang was secretly observing Xu Jia and Yan Baiwei.

Among the girls present, these two gave her the strongest sense of threat!

Not just their looks and figures!

What concerned her more was the familiar atmosphere between these two and Chen Qiu when they were together.

That definitely couldn't be formed overnight!

Even more dangerous was that these two seemed to have a close relationship with Chen Qiu's mother!

"It's a good thing I came to this housewarming banquet today..."

Compared to these two, the streamers and internet celebrities from Jijing Media were far inferior!

"Man Tong..."

Shao Shushuang was about to discuss something with Zhang Mantong, but what she heard was the latter's chewing sound.

"Shu Shuang, the chestnut roasted duck at this hotel smells so good, quick, try some!"

Shao Shushuang instantly looked at her best friend helplessly.

"You foodie, others have already pushed to the high ground, and you're still eating here!"

Zhang Mantong blinked her beautiful eyes.

"Isn't that what you're for...?"

Shao Shushuang sighed, holding her forehead.

She felt that ever since Zhang Mantong dragged her into this battlefield, this woman had been looking to cling to her and just lay flat.

Seeing that Shao Shushuang seemed a bit frustrated and deflated, Zhang Mantong quickly leaned in and whispered.

"Shu Shuang, if it really doesn't work out, we'll drag Brother to go cycling!"

Cycling?

Shao Shushuang looked at Zhang Mantong suspiciously.

What's the meaning of that?

Zhang Mantong felt a bit shy under her gaze and quickly changed the subject.

"Oh, I'll explain it to you when we get back, let's eat first!"

...Chen Qiu's housewarming banquet, every table was set according to Grand Cloud Sky's highest standard banquet.

Are you kidding? How could Yu Shen, the General Manager of the store, neglect the banquet of the Group's major shareholder?

All the dishes today, the ingredients were meticulously selected.

During cooking, he personally supervised the head chef.

Fearing any slight mishap!

This directly allowed many relatives and friends to enjoy the highest quality banquet of their lives to date!

They all expressed that when they host banquets, they must also come to this five-star hotel!

It's worth mentioning that Luo Jinglan also invited Huang Hui's family.

After all, they had just attended Huang Hui's family's housewarming banquet.

However, Huang Hui and Chen Zhifeng didn't want to come.

So, only Chen Yujie could come alone.

Listening to the constant praise of Chen Qiu from the surrounding relatives, and eating dishes far superior to his own banquet two days ago, Chen Yujie found it all tasteless.

Now, the relationship between their two families, if not at a freezing point, was close to it!

In this situation, the more powerful Chen Qiu became, the more uncomfortable he felt.

Because he knew very well that his parents had been competitive with Chen Qiu's parents their entire lives and would never back down now.

The unfortunate one would only be him, caught in the middle and powerless.

If he had known, he wouldn't have come!

After the banquet, Chen Qius Parents told the relatives to pack up what they wanted, and then everyone dispersed.

"Brother Chen, let's have a drink alone sometime in the future!"

Yan Li said, his face flushed, holding Chen Zhide's hand.

He had just posted a photo on his Moments congratulating Chen Qiu on his housewarming banquet, and now the engineering bosses who left early were all buzzing, asking about his relationship with Chen Qiu.

In difficult times in the past, they ignored him no matter how much he asked!

Now, one WeChat Moments post had them all jumping.

He was extremely happy now.

"No problem, no problem!"

Chen Zhide was also beaming.

The last time their family hosted a banquet was ten years ago, for Chen Qiu's university celebration!

Today's housewarming banquet, listening to the flattery and praise from relatives he hadn't seen in a long time, he truly had his moment of glory!

In comparison, Chen Qiu was much calmer.

After bidding farewell to Zhang Mantong and the other girls, he checked his phone.

He found that He Ting had sent over the WeChat contacts of the two girls she introduced yesterday.

Chen Qiu instantly perked up!

This was the real business!

His seventh blind date, here he comes!
