Chapter 518

Su Li's blind date was a Yi Renjie . No matter how you looked at it, his credentials were rather substantial . After all, not just anyone could gain the acknowledgment of Su Li's parents . They were dead serious about potential suitors for their outstanding daughter .

Unfortunately, Su Li had no interest in marriage . Also, what common ground did she share with an elite investor . She would be the eccentric one out of the pair . Fending him off would be the best option…

On the contrary, Zhao Youyue was a friendly young girl . She could befriend just about anyone she wanted . There was nothing she could not talk about, and she was never shy to strangers .

Even eccentric individuals like Han Leng yearned to talk to Lady Zhao . Regular girls bored Han Leng . His att.i.tude was an accurate representation of his name, cold and lonely for all eternity .

Perhaps this was why Han Leng treated Lady Zhao differently . He could not find anyone else who sat on the same page .

Lady Zhao was born with this extraordinary talent of public relations.h.i.+p .

Su Li excused herself to the ladies, leaving Zhao Youyue to deal with the awkward situation . Well, who asked her to be such a busybody in the first place?

Yi Renjie was a decent man . At least, that was how he appeared . Nevertheless, he treated this date seriously . He wanted to leave a strong first impression in the heart of a beautiful girl like Su Li .

Su Li did not want to hurt this man's feelings . He seemed to be a nice guy . Their parents knew each other as they were from the same town . Going overboard might involve her parents .

Zhao Youyue sat before Yi Renjie, making no attempt to hide her annoyance and contempt . He might be an elite in his career, but he was a n.o.body to her .

Indeed, n.o.body could touch the hem of the Zhao Family's robes, even with whole life's hard work . Plus, he was not remarkably talented, nor had he been born with a silver spoon in his mouth .

China was rapidly growing, albeit in a structured and well-planned manner . Under such conditions, the wealthy only grew wealthier . Plebians could only dream of sharing the skyline with them .

Yi Renjie quickly averted his eyes . He fought to retain his elegant demeanor, not wanting to appear unhinged by Zhao Youyue's expression .

"Yi Renjie, isn't it? Name a price . How much to give up on her . " Zhao Youyue tried to put up her best impression of an overprotective guardian .

She never had the will or guts to be a mean person . Arrogance was a close subst.i.tute .

"From the way you worded it, it seems like this date had been an automatic fail . Thank goodness!" Yi Renjie spoke as if the weight on his chest had been lifted .

"Huh? What's that supposed to mean, our Lady Su Li is not good enough for you?" His words triggered Zhao Youyue .

"Of course not, I'm just not interested in women…" Unexpectedly, Yi Renjie confessed .

Zhao Youyue blinked in surprise, "So, you like men?"

"Well… that's not entirely true . "

"Well, what's your preference?"

"Actually, none whatsoever . "

"Then what was with that gentlemanly goody act, sister Su did not have the heart to reject you . "

"I had to present myself perfectly to imply my lack of interests in her well-being . I satisfy everybody, my parents, and Su Li . A token of respect and courtesy, if you must say . If I cared about her, I would have been nervous and jumpy, you don't see such composed men on first dates . "

"You are so weird . I never thought that guys like you existed . "

"Maybe, but I think it's completely normal . I just wanted to pa.s.s my time . If it actually ended up with something, I would just go with the flow . Who would my bride be? It doesn't really matter to me . "

"Even if you wife cheated on you, it wouldn't matter?"

"Of course not . It depends . Maybe not enough for me to throw a fit, but I won't just leave it be . "

"That sounds awfully like you not giving a d.a.m.n . You're letting others take your life out of your hands . "

"If everyone is happy, why not?"

"That's boring . How could that life carry any meaning?"

"I think the quintessence of human inheritance is to get a wife and create a new line down the family tree . This world needs people to strive for perfection in everything, creating wonders along their way . It needs people like me, keeping the foundations stable . "

Yi Renjie finished off his sentence by leaving the table for the bill . He apologized to Su Li, saying that they were not meant for each other .

Yi Renjie knew plenty of girls who did not know how to reject a man .

Smart ladies left hints . All he had to do was pick up the memo and make his exit . Everyone would leave the place all the merrier .

Zhao Youyue was right about him being weird . He might be amicable and pleasing to the ladies, but it was all just a facade . His true nature was that of a s.a.d.i.s.t . Marriage was just a ceremony set upon him by his parents to lengthen the existence of their genealogy . Any healthy female who was capable of bearing offsprings would suffice .

Pretty ladies came to him all the time . He came from a rather decent family, and had a stable career to boot . Ladies often got deceived by such frauds . Beneath his premediated gestures of chivalry, he was a cold machine . Everything he did was for family inheritance .

Thrusting himself into a woman's body gave him no pleasure . Only two words would ring in his head - "mission accomplished . " The smile on his face was not for himself, but to meet the expectations of others .

Fortunately, such men were truly uncommon . It was a sad, sad existence . He shared more resemblances with a machine than a living being .

Nevertheless, if he keeps these thoughts to himself, he would be the ideal gentleman . He had the mannerisms and demeanor of the ideal husband .
