”Blind date?” Ji Ziming's voice pitched a little higher. His eyes blazed with anger as he looked at Pei Ge.

White vest, long floral dress, and hair hanging loosely on her shoulders – such an appearance made her look like a gentle lady.

This woman only came to this coffee house for a blind date! It was no wonder her outfit tonight was different from the one in the day.

”Yes. Otherwise, why would I be here? I don't even like drinking coffee,” she replied matter-of-factly.

”You…” He looked at her with a frown, as though he wanted to say something.

”Oh, I am such a person with no taste.” Pei Ge shrugged and said with a smile.

”No. There are many who don't like drinking coffee.” Her self-deprecation made his forehead crease. He felt that her attitude toward him seemed different from before.

His words confused Pei Ge slightly and then she spit inside her, When did this Ji Ziming learn to speak human words?

”CEO Ji, I'm serious. I'm really here for a blind date tonight, and he will be arriving shortly. If you continue to sit here, my date might misunderstand.” She blinked her eyes and then said this sincerely when the man remained in his seat opposite her.

”… Alright. I'll leave after asking a question.” He acquiesced after pondering on it for a while.

”What question?” She nodded and suspiciously asked.

”Are you coming to work tomorrow?” His eyes bore deep into hers when he asked this.

”Rest assured, CEO Ji; I will report to work on time tomorrow.” Pei Ge showed a very professional smile.

That smile made Ji Ziming uncomfortable, however.

He looked deeply at her once more before standing and leaving his seat without another word.

Once he left, she no longer minded him. Instead, she lifted her wrist with a watch to look at the time.

It was 8:30 P.M.

Pei Ge lifted her head and looked around. Her forehead began to fold together slightly.

It was already past the appointed time, but her blind-date partner had yet to arrive! Being late for the first meeting was never a good sign.

This made her think of her blind date as someone unreliable.

”Hai!” She sighed and began to rant inwardly, My mouth and I. I only wanted mom to show off in front of her friends by mentioning the raise and promotion, but it led to an arranged blind date, instead.

Pei Ge felt depressed when she recalled how her mother returned with not just many bags of vegetables but also the details for tonight's blind date.

The date – a doctor who had a bright future – was recommended by a neighbor. He apparently only had pockets of time at night as he needed to work in the day and could rarely take leave.

”Sorry, are you Miss Pei Ge?” Just as she was ruminating on the matter, a man in white shirt approached her.

”Yes, I am.” She returned to her senses and looked at the man before her.

His short haircut made him appear very neat. His facial features were not that handsome, but his calm demeanor gave others the feeling comfort and security.

She gave this man high marks with this one look.

However, one could not simply judge a person's character with one look.

”Hi, I am Chen Zhengchu.” The man smiled and proffered his hand.

Pei Ge also extended hers and shook his hand. ”Hello.”
