Chapter 104: Lin Haofan, the Piano Player
Just as Cheng Yu walked out of the restaurant with Yang Ruoxue, his phone rang. Cheng Yu took out his phone and saw it was Lan Ya who was calling him. Cheng Yu glimpsed at Yang Ruoxue beside him before picking up the phone.
“Hello. Xiao Ya, what’s the matter?” Cheng Yu laughed. Yang Ruoxue frowned next to him.
“What? I can only give you a call when there is a problem, huh? Or perhaps, did I interrupt you chasing after other girls?”
“Hehe. How is that possible? For you to call me, you have no idea how delighted I am.”
“Alright. Let’s get to business. Young Master Meng came over to my company wishing to cooperate with you.”
“Young Master Meng? Who is that?”
“Do you remember the guy we met when I was buying clothes for you? That’s him, Young Master Meng Wen.”
“Oh! It’s him! He wants to cooperate with me? However, I don’t have time right now. Ask him to come back to your office tomorrow. I will be there to talk to him.”
“Alright then. That’s all!” Lan Ya hung up.
If it was in the past, Meng Wen might still feel what his Third Uncle had said might be quite reasonable. Lan Family might have been compelled by Lan Ya’s boyfriend. But after he saw how Lan Ya talked with Cheng Yu, it was evident that it was not the same as his Third Uncle had thought. They were more likely to be lovers.
Meng Wen gave it a thought and felt that working together with Cheng Yu might not necessarily make them suppressed. On the other hand, it also showed that the Lan Family’s relationship with their backer is very good. It seemed like Meng Wen might have to fawn on Lan Ya.
“Miss Lan, how is it?”
“He isn’t free right now. He asked you to come here tomorrow. He will be here to discuss with you then.”
“Alright. Since it’s like that, I will leave first. I will be here again tomorrow to bother Miss Lan,” After replying, Meng Wen stood up and bid goodbye. He was prepared to return home and consult his dad about it.

“If you have something that you need to attend to, you can return first,” At the start, when Yang Ruoxue heard that it was a call from Cheng Yu’s girlfriend, Yang Ruoxue thought that she was looking for Cheng Yu for a date, causing her to be in a bad mood. However, when she heard that it was discussing proper business, she wished to continue shopping with Cheng Yu, but she knew that it wasn’t a good time right now.
“It’s fine. I already promised you that I would accompany you for the day. Today, I will just listen to you. Whatever you wish to do, we will do it together,” Even though Cheng Yu was quite surprised by the way the Meng Family delivered themselves to his doorstep, Cheng Yu still felt that it was not something very urgent that needed his attention right away.
When Yang Ruoxue heard Cheng Yu’s words, her mood livened up, ”This is what you said. Today, you must not go anywhere else!”
“Of course. I already said before that I would give you the most romantic date, didn’t I?” Cheng Yu laughed. He had never once expected the cold and conscientious Yang Ruoxue would actually possess such a cute side to her. It seemed that his charisma wasn’t something that could be compared to a mortal’s charisma.
“Is that so? However, your most romantic date is actually shopping on the street?”
“Shopping is a must when it comes to dating. Not only can it ease the pressure that was accumulated from work, it can also help to increase the intimacy between a couple. We have not met for such a long time, so naturally we must shop for a while to foster our feelings for each other.”
“Who wants to foster their feelings with you?! However, if we were to shop today, you must be the one paying.”
“Naturally.”
They went past every corner of the shopping mall. By the time they walked out of the shopping mall, Cheng Yu felt that he had actually been enlightened. Finally, he knew that once a woman let go of their mind, their vigor would actually be better than his, an immortal.
At the start, Yang Ruoxue was conforming with the norms of society. She would just window shop and not do anything else. However, after window shopping for a while, she start to let loose, and would try every single thing she liked, but she would not buy it. It caused all the shop assistants to be extremely dissatisfied with them. Even the thick-skinned Cheng Yu also felt embarrassed.
“Where are we going now?” Yang Ruoxue asked excitedly while seated in the car.
“Big sister, can’t you see that the sky already turned dark? Are you not hungry?” Cheng Yu was speechless. It seemed like Yang Ruoxue had constrained herself too much. This time, she had gotten addicted to it to loosening up.
“Haha! If you didn’t tell me, I really would not have noticed it! I know a French restaurant. The environment there isn’t bad. Let’s go there.”
Cheng Yu was not interested in French, Italian, or Russian restaurants at all. However, he knew that this was a way to show off for those elegant people, as it made them feel very noble.
Inside the French restaurant, the environment was very serene and elegant. There was a foreign pianist playing some music that was very relaxing. Cheng Yu and Yang Ruoxue found a window seat and sat down. They ordered a few French specialties. Just as they were about to talk, a surprised voice came from beside them, ”Miss Yang, I never expected to come across you here. Here to have a meal with a friend?”
Yang Ruoxue and Cheng Yu looked over. It was a 30-year-old man. He had a small forehead and was wearing golden glasses. He wore a short sleeve white shirt, and on his left hand, there was a sparkling golden watch. It was the standard appearance of a successful figure.
“So it’s Manager Lin. Are you here to have a meal with your girlfriend?” Yang Ruoxue was startled at first. Soon after, she wrinkled her eyebrows. Then, she returned to a business smile and replied.
Manager Lin turned around and looked towards the lady sitting at his table. After that, he turned his head and said, ”Nope. Just having a meal with a friend. Since it is rare to actually meet Miss Yang, how about sharing a table together?”
“No need. I still have things that I want to talk to my friend about. It’s inconvenient,” Yang Ruoxue rejected him with a smile.
It was at this moment, Lin Fan realized that there was someone sitting opposite of Yang Ruoxue. He smiled and asked, ”This mister is?”
Cheng Yu was too lazy to pay any attention to him as he stirred the coffee in his hand. When Yang Ruoxue saw Manager Lin’s awkward expression, she glared at Cheng Yu coldly. “You should at least give him some face right?!” Hence, she used her leg and bumped Cheng Yu gently.

Cheng Yu glimpsed at Yang Ruoxue. When he saw her expression, he knew what she was trying to say. Cheng Yu lifted up his head slightly and straightened himself up before smiling at Manager Lin, ”I’m sorry, please step aside for a moment, don’t block the waiter who is going to serve the dishes behind you.”
Manager Lin was dumbfounded. Originally, he thought that the opposite party was about to greet him. But he did not expect him to be asking him to make way for the waiter instead. For a moment, his face turned red. However, Yang Ruoxue was in front of him, and it was not nice of him to flare up. He could only give Yang Ruoxue a smile. After that, he stepped aside to allow the waiter behind him to serve the dishes.
At first, Manager Lin thought of chatting with Yang Ruoxue again after the dishes were served. However, they both lowered their heads and started fiddling with their steak and did not show any signs of them wanting to continue the conversation. Manager Lin was truly unable to open his mouth, so he could only take his leave awkwardly. However, in his heart, he was feeling extremely indignant.
“You are really too much. In any case, he is still a general manager, so you should at least give him some face,” After being left alone, Yang Ruoxue lifted up her head and told Cheng Yu angrily.
“I am not his personnel, so why should I give him face?” Cheng Yu asked disapprovingly. He used his fork and pierced a slice of steak before placing it into his mouth.
Yang Ruoxue kept her silence. Even though Cheng Yu may look young, he possessed his own kind of haughtiness. Other than his friends, Cheng Yu would be very apathetic. It could also be seen as a kind of disdain for everyone else.
If in this world, there was something that could cause Cheng Yu to suffer losses, it would only be a beautiful woman. Compared to how he treated men so apathetically, the way Cheng Yu treated women was totally the opposite. Even if you weren’t willing to talk to him, he would annoy you into talking!
Manager Lin went back to his seat filled with anger as he drank a mouthful of red wine ferociously.
“Darling, what’s wrong? Isn’t that your friend?” The enchanting woman sitting opposite Lin Haofan was extremely puzzled by his expression.
“Hmph! A couple engaged in an illicit love affair! They actually dared to not put me, Lin Haofan, in their eyes at all!” When Lin Haofan saw Yang Ruoxue and Cheng Yu were chatting so happily after he left, he got even angrier.
“Darling, should I play a piano piece for you?” Lin Haofan tidied up his state of mind. He looked at the pianist who was playing a melody, and his eyes shined.
“Sure. I love the appearance of you playing the piano the most. So manly!” When she heard Lin Haofan, the lady replied excitedly.
Lin Haofan stood up and walked towards the stage. He spoke a few sentences to the pianist. After that, the pianist stood up and left. Lin Haofan sat down in front of the piano gracefully. He looked in Yang Ruoxue’s direction with a smile before starting to play the piano.
An elegant melody resounded. Immediately, it attracted a lot of customers’ attention, especially the foreign men and women. They always admired this kind of man.
However, the way Lin Haofan played the piano made him seem very gifted and talented. Those slender hands, which were jumping around the piano keys, and those natural and unforced movements with elegant melody led to a lot of people giving him applause.
When Lin Haofan saw Yang Ruoxue had also immersed herself in his melody, he was extremely proud of himself. He started to showcase all his skills in piano, building the immersion to the pinnacle!
