“Oh, Rui Rui ah, this is Lin Yi Xiao. Do you remember the old friend, Uncle Lin^[1] whom your father often goes fishing with, Yi Xiao is Uncle Lin’s son. “

When Liu Yue noticed that Su Rui was looking at the person behind, she quickly explained with a smile.

As if she was afraid that her daughter would ‘misunderstand’, she immediately explained, “Yi Xiao is also a student of University B’s economic and management department. He is in his fourth year this year. Speaking of which, he can also be considered as your senior.”

“Also, coincidentally your father was talking to Uncle Lin that he was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to figure your way when you arrive at the university so he wanted to trouble Yi Xiao to go there together and let you be familiar with the school.”

When Su Rui heard her mother’s words, she sneered in her heart.

Madam Liu Yue, it would be better if you* didn’t explain instead.

Don’t tell me that Mother Su’s idea was to have a blind date in disguise.

Su Rui’s head hurts a little.

Even though she didn’t repel the idea of a blind date, she has to consider the situation.

It would be so busy at the beginning of the university that Su Rui really doesn’t have the time to think about it.

Although she grumbled about it in her heart, Su Rui still followed according to what Liu Yue had said and raised her head to look up at the young man who was in his early twenties.

“Hello.” Su Rui nodded towards him and greeted him with an expression that was not fervent but appropriate.

“Hello, Junior Su^[2].” Lin Yi Xiao also smiled politely and greeted Su Rui.

Lin Yi Xiao was somewhat conflicted as he understood his family’s intention. However, he was astonished when he saw Su Rui.

If he could date such a girlfriend, it seemed to be not bad.

“Just calling me Su Rui would be fine.” said Su Rui.

No matter how you hear this address of “Junior Su”, it just made her indisposed.

If she was a cute young girl in her first year that would be fine, but she was a senior in her third year.

Also, if you include the three years she laid on the hospital bed in her last life, she was a few years older than the man in front of her.

“Yes ah, both our families have deep friendship. You can call each other by names.” Liu Yue pulled Su Rui into the car, she smiled and said.

Initially, Liu Yue was having second thoughts about this. When she saw that her daughter didn’t make a fuss about it, she was slightly relieved.

“Mum, let’s head to school first.” Without waiting for Liu Yue to say anything more, Su Rui held Liu Yue’s hand and said.

“Well, let’s talk on the way there.”

“My car is over there. Is Su Rui going to take my car?” Lin Xiao asked.

Su Rui obviously turned down politely.

This was the first day they had met. It’s riding in his car and not taking a taxi.

Once she agrees to it, Lao Su wouldn’t agree to it.

Once she was sitting in their family’s car, Liu Yue immediately looked at Su Rui and asked, “What do you think?”

“What do you mean by what do you think?” Su Rui acted dumb.

“It’s Lin Yi Xiao ah. What do you think of him?”

“You are saying the senior? I just saw him. How can I know how he is.” Su Rui continued to act dumb.

“Don’t pretend to be dumb.” Mother Su frowned as she saw through Su Rui. She looked at Su Rui and added, “When you saw the person from the Gu family, I asked how is he like and you even said he is not bad.”

How’s that the same?

Su Rui didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Previously, she was prepared to attend a blind date. Today, she was going to attend a blind date all of a sudden, ok? The state of mind was totally different.

Moreover, she also said at that time she will get to know Gu Yu Cheng more.

“I just greeted him. I still can’t remember the Uncle Lin that you have mentioned. How would I be able to assess him.”

“What’s more,” Su Rui paused and looked faintly at Mother Su. She continued, “Didn’t we agree that we won’t rush things? How can you arrange it for me again.”

When her daughter asked this question, Liu Yue was stumped for words.

“How’s this arranging a blind date? Mum just wants to find someone who is around your age. So that when something happens in school, there will be someone you can look for.” Liu Yue explained.

In fact, Liu Yue’s real intention was that Rui Rui can get along with him.

Firstly, Liu Yue was really afraid that Su Rui would be like the other young girls who would be crazy about chasing stars, to be obsessed with little fresh meat^[3] and old bacon^[4]. Secondly, Su Rui can have a boy who knew the ropes to look after her, and she could rest assured.

“Besides, this boy, Lin Yi Xiao, is not bad. His appearance is also attractive, he is polite and modest…” Mother Su would love to use all the good descriptive phrases on him.

“He is indeed good.” Comrade Su who was sitting in the front row also agreed, “I still understand the situation of Lao Lin’s family, and his son is a reliable person.”

“See, your father won’t lie to you.”

Su Rui: …

From the statements of Father Su and Mother Su, Lin Yi Xiao is not bad.

Just that…

“Mum, don’t you think he’s too young?” Su Rui asked.

Although Su Rui was now 20 years old, her psychological age was three years older than him.

The saying that a wife three years older than the husband ensures a richer life^[5], was just a saying after the relationship was stable. If it’s about dating, Su Rui felt uncomfortable.

Moreover, the young man in his early twenties was not mature enough. He was still a big boy. Su Rui thought that she was at best a theoretical emperor and she couldn’t fall in love with him.

When Liu Yue heard it, she gave up.

“How is he young? Lin Yi Xiao is only two years older than you.”

One of them was 20 years old while the other was 22 years old. From Mother Su’s perspective, they are suitable and they are of marriageable age already.

When she suddenly thought of something, Liu Yue glanced towards Su Rui. She said in dissatisfaction, “What about it, you say that 22 years old is young. Then, you think that people like Gu Yu Cheng who is almost 30 years old is good?”

Previously she admired Gu Yu Cheng, while now Mother Su just disdained him.

When Su Rui heard this phrase, the corner of her mouth couldn’t help but twitch.

Gu Yu Cheng should be 26 years old or 27 years old right? How can he be someone who was almost 30 years old?

Also, maturity has nothing to do with age.

However, those who have experience were more mature and cautious about things. This was the marriage and family life that Su Rui was looking forward to with her partner.

Besides, why did she suddenly mention Gu Yu Cheng again ah.

Su Rui really didn’t want to remember the situation about Gu Yu Cheng. Before she left the house, she also ignored the friend request sent by Gu Yu Cheng.

This time, Gu Yu Cheng’s request only said one thing: add me.

However, Su Rui remembers his profile picture.

Gu Yu Cheng’s profile picture was similar to his office. It’s dark and leaves a deep impression on others.

“Mum, let’s not talk about unimportant people.” Su Rui said as she linked arms with Liu Yue. Then she said before Liu Yue said something, “There are so many things that need to be done in the beginning of school. I have to sit for several make-up examinations of the fundamental subjects.”

“I know you are busy, but you can’t just study only right.”

“Yes, yes, yes. You* have a point. Don’t worry. It’s to do with my marriage, I won’t blindly go through the motions.”

“And, to be able to find a good person, I should be good enough myself, right?”

After convincing her, she finally managed to fool her mother and the car reached the university.

Mother Su thought to herself: To study is part of an excuse. It’s mostly that our daughter didn’t fancy this boy, Lin Yi Xiao.

^[1] Similar to Auntie Yu, Uncle Lin isn’t a family member of Su Rui but it’s a respectful way of calling an elder that’s the same age as your parents.

^[2] 学妹(xué mèi)- refers to a female junior or a younger female schoolmate

^[3] 小鲜肉 (xiǎo xiān ròu)- Little fresh meat. It refers to young and handsome males. Normally, it would refer to ages 12-20 years old, good looking man.

^[4] 老腊肉([lǎo là ròu) – It refers to an ‘Uncle’, ‘mature man’ and it’s the opposite of little fresh meat. When little fresh meat and little loli became the main stream on screens, there are still some ‘Uncles’ who dont fight for beauty and talent. They either have superb acting skills, mature and stable; or have deep eyes and have inner qualities, so they have also won a large number of fans.

^[5] 女大三抱金砖(nǚ dà sān bào jīnzhuān)-A wife three years older than the husband ensures a richer life.
