Domination of the Aristocratic Dynasty After a Body Swap with the CEO

Chapter 72

Although Zhong Ruanxing was supposedly set up on a blind date, she didn't even have the other person's contact information.

Zhong Ruanxing had no choice but to call Song Grandpa again to get Bai Yinyue's phone number. When the call went through, the voice on the other end sounded very cheerful: "Hello?"

Zhong Ruanxing spoke up: "Miss Bai, this is Song JinXing."

"Mr. Song." Her voice lifted up eagerly: "I'm so glad you called."

Zhong Ruanxing glanced at her watch, it was almost time to get off work: "Miss Bai, may I take you out for dinner tonight?"

Bai Yinyue laughed gently: "Of course."

Zhong Ruanxing said: "You choose the place."

"Okay, see you tonight then, Mr. Song."

"See you tonight."

Shortly after hanging up, Zhong Ruanxing received a friend request on WeChat from Bai Yinyue. After accepting it, Bai Yinyue sent her the address of a restaurant.

This was the first blind date Zhong Ruanxing had ever been on in her life!

Although the blind date was with another girl...Ever since they had switched bodies, her life had become more and more fantastical. But this kind of magical life experience wasn't something just anyone could have, she should cherish it while it lasted.

Zhong Ruanxing had been busy at work up until it was almost time to get off. The work she had to do everyday now was no different than a real CEO's. Ever since Song JinXing discovered her talent(?) for business, he had been intentionally training her abilities, often leaving relatively unimportant tasks for her to handle herself.

Zhong Ruanxing was scared to death that if she wasn't careful, she could bankrupt the Song Corporation. She worked under intense pressure and apprehension everyday.

It could be said that high pressure forces growth. Her growth had been astounding. Even if she was thrown into a small company to manage right now, she could probably get the hang of it very quickly.

She was meeting Bai Yinyue at 7pm. Worried about traffic jams, she set out an hour early. But the meeting place was in the city center, not far from the Song Corporation building. Zhong Ruanxing arrived at the designated spot half an hour early.

The secluded garden restaurant amidst the hustle and bustle. As soon as she stepped inside, there were green bamboos and foliage everywhere. Seated amongst the shadows of bamboo was a woman in a moon-white cheongsam playing the guzheng. The ushers were dressed in embroidered Tang dynasty robes, every word and action elegant and dignified.

As expected of the capital, there were all kinds of places like this. Where there was demand, there would be supply. The demand came from Bai Yinyue and other wealthy second generation socialites looking for amusement.

Zhong Ruanxing had just sat down for less than 5 minutes when Bai Yinyue was led over by an usher.

Seeing her sitting there, Bai Yinyue's smile deepened: "I came pretty early too, didn't expect Mr. Song to arrive even earlier than me."

Zhong Ruanxing thought to herself, fortunately she had left early, otherwise making a lady wait would be so impolite.

She had completely forgotten that she herself was also a lady.

Bai Yinyue was a regular customer here. When the waiter handed her the tablet to order dishes, she leaned her chin on her hand and smiled: "Mr. Song, why don't you order. If I order, it will just be the same few dishes I always get. Today I want to experience opening a blind box."

Zhong Ruanxing took the menu and asked in a low voice: "Any dietary restrictions?"

Bai Yinyue said: "No cilantro."

Zhong Ruanxing understood. She chose a few dishes that looked appetizing in the photos. After the order was placed, the waiter left. The elegant bamboo enclosure became quiet, with only the melodious guzheng music remaining.

Bai Yinyue poured her a cup of tea: "Mr. Song, try the tea here, I really like it."

Zhong Ruanxing uttered her thanks. She held the cup in one hand, sipping the tea while contemplating how to make things clear to Bai Yinyue without hurting her pride. In all honesty, Bai Yinyue was a truly outstanding girl. Her family background, personality, and looks were the best Zhong Ruanxing had ever seen in a girl.

Compared to Song Jiawei, who was also an heiress raised by a wealthy family, Bai Yinyue surpassed her in every aspect.

If she was the real Song JinXing, facing such a perfect blind date, she probably wouldn't refuse with a high probability.

But who knew what the real Mr. Song was thinking?

While Zhong Ruanxing was lost in thought, Bai Yinyue suddenly spoke: "Mr. Song is pondering how to reject me without hurting me, right?"

Zhong Ruanxing was startled. She raised her head to meet Bai Yinyue's smiling eyes.

Bai Yinyue laughed: "I guessed right after all. Mr. Song really is the most gentle and chivalrous person I've met. Even thinking for so long about how to reject me. But it's exactly because of this that I don't want to let you go."

Zhong Ruanxing didn't even know how to respond to such a straightforward pass.

She had a whole set of ways to reject men, but she really had no experience rejecting women!

After two seconds of contemplation, Zhong Ruanxing said in a deep voice: "I'm very sorry, but I currently have no thoughts about relationships or marriage. Miss Bai is so outstanding, you should meet someone even better."

Bai Yinyue blinked: "But of all the people I've met, you are the best."

Why couldn't she have been a man!!!

Zhong Ruanxing firmly rejected: "Outward appearances do not represent the truth. I like being alone in private. I don't need a partner. The world is big, Miss Bai should broaden her horizons. Don't waste your time and energy on me."

"Oh." Bai Yinyue sighed. "Let's eat first."

Zhong Ruanxing: "............"

The waiter quickly began serving the dishes. Seeing the plates being carried out one by one, Bai Yinyue let out a strange "huh". After all the dishes were served, the way she looked at Zhong Ruanxing contained deeper implications.

Zhong Ruanxing was confused: "Not to your taste?"

Bai Yinyue said: "No." She heaved a long sigh: "Mr. Song, we really are a match made in heaven."

Zhong Ruanxing: "?"

Don't speak so cryptically!

Bai Yinyue went on: "Even our tastes are exactly the same. These are the same dishes I always order when I come. Mr. Song, isn't this fate?"

No way, what a coincidence?

But Zhong Ruanxing did order based on her own preferences. It turned out Bai Yinyue's tastes were the same as hers, it really was somewhat fated. An ill-fated connection.

Once again cursing that she wasn't born a man, Zhong Ruanxing said in a deep voice: "I'm glad it's to your taste."

The ambiance and food at this restaurant were great. As Zhong Ruanxing ate, she thought she should bring Song JinXing here to try it sometime after he returned.

Bai Yinyue had excellent table manners, watching her eat was a feast for the eyes. Beautiful women and delicious food, even Zhong Ruanxing unconsciously ate a bit more.

Only when Bai Yinyue elegantly dabbed her mouth with a napkin did Zhong Ruanxing slowly set down her chopsticks.

Bai Yinyue took a sip of tea to rinse her mouth. Her smile was warm and gentle: "If I could have dinner companions like Mr. Song everyday, I would look forward to every meal."

Zhong Ruanxing felt that she had accomplished her mission and decided to wrap things up: "Miss Bai, I came today because of my elders' request. It was a pleasure dining with you, but I hope Miss Bai understands what I mean and can convey it to your parents. Let's end this matter here. I wish you the best in finding someone even better."

Bai Yinyue blinked and looked up slightly at her.

Zhong Ruanxing was terrified she would start crying the next second.

Ah, did she go too far?

But then Zhong Ruanxing heard Bai Yinyue say: "I understand Mr. Song's meaning. In that case, can we start off as friends?"

Not sisters! How persistent can you be!
