Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Uh, this…”
Tan Sangsang took the initiative to speak to ease the tension and give everyone an out. “I’ll top up the extra. Sorry to have troubled you today, Jinyi.”
“Sangsang, you’re wrong to say that. You’re making it sound as if my family is troublesome.” The man next to her couldn’t help but speak up, his face full of displeasure. “My parents, aunt, and cousin just want to meet a celebrity in person. It’s such a wonderful thing that you’re friends with Miss Yan.”
Only then did Yan Jinyi shift her attention to the man beside Tan Sangsang.
The man had a buzz cut, a round face and average-looking features. His head was at the same level as Tan Sangsang’s when they were seated so it’s imaginable how tall he is.
Noticing Yan Jinyi’s gaze, he raised his glass and said to Yan Jinyi with a slight smile, “Hello Miss Yan, you’re even more beautiful in person than you are on TV. I’m very honored to be able to be invited to this place for a meal with you.”
Although he was ugly, he was much more well-mannered than Tan Sangsang’s previous blind date.
Unfortunately, he was too hypocritical.
After thinking about it, Yan Jinyi decided not to put on airs this time, which was quite rare of her. She raised her glass out of courtesy and said, “I just bought a house in this city. Mr. Yang, you should know how expensive property prices are here. So…”
As she said that, she blinked at Yang Ze with an innocent look on her face.
Yang Ze was instantly mesmerized by her looks. He frantically nodded and said, “I understand, I understand. Miss Yan, you’re my very favorite actress and I follow you on Weibo too. Based on the photos you posted previously, your new home should be in the city center where property prices are indeed very high.”
Yan Jinyi smiled and said, “Yes, speculation is driving property prices higher and higher each year. It really isn’t easy living in the city.”
If it was challenging for a celebrity, it would be even more so for ordinary citizens.
Yang Ze’s parents’ were also focusing all their attention on Yan Jinyi. They began to show her concern and even asked about how much she was paid to star in a drama.
‘Why are they making it seem like it’s a blind date for me and him?’
Yan Jinyi frowned slightly and turned to look at Tan Sangsang who seemed just as embarrassed.
When she met Yang Ze’s parents previously, they were indeed rather arrogant.
“Miss Yan, since you’re a famous celebrity, you must have high standards when it comes to choosing a partner, right?” Yang Ze’s mother suddenly asked.
Yan Jinyi smiled and said, “You should have heard of Mr. Tang Qing before, right?”
Mrs. Yang nodded.
“My partner has to at least look like Mr. Tang.”
Mrs. Yang was stunned and she glared at her son again.
It was a good opportunity to matchmake them, she thought. Although Tan Sangsang was nice, she paled in comparison to Yan Jinyi.
“Yang Ze has always been a good kid and he attended college overseas. A rich lady from abroad took a liking to him back then but this rascal prefers Asian women so he refused to agree. Ah…”
‘Isn’t he already divorced?’
Yan Jinyi thought to herself. However, she found it inappropriate to be talking about this when Tang Sangsang was right beside her.
“When it comes to choosing a partner, looks are not as important as IQ. You have to have IQ for your children to be intelligent!”
Yan Jinyi smiled mirthlessly and said, “Sangsang’s IQ is quite high, just look at her son.”
Mrs. Yang smiled perfunctorily and asked, “Miss Yan,since you’re so busy, you must not have much time to travel, right? If you’re ready to go abroad for a vacation, you can ask Yang Ze along. He speaks good English and is familiar with foreign countries. That’ll prevent you from suffering a loss, Miss Yan.”
“Hah, Aunt, did you misunderstand something?”
“Huh?” Mrs. Yang looked puzzled.
“I’m at least a popular artist of TG Entertainment. Even if I go abroad, my company will assign a professional translator to accompany me!”
