housewife!"Xu Manman frowned, her face twisted in unnatural anger.Shen Yian glanced at Xu Manman's phone. The handsome guy in the photo was Song Lin.If Wang Ruqi hadn't been hiding in Song Lin's trun...Shen Yian didn't have time to ask more questions, so he ran downstairs to take the subway and went to the address Aunt Mo had sent.

A high-end restaurant.

The romantic crystal chandelier, the entire wall of fresh flowers, and the gentle instrumental music all exude exquisite elegance.

Outside the entrance hall stood a sign that read, "Golf Social Club".

Isn't this just a disguised matchmaking event

What

Shen Yian was full of question marks. Aunt Mo seemed to have mentioned that she had divorced a long time ago. Could it be that she wanted to have... a twilight romance

Aunt Mo is well-maintained, looking to be in her early forties at over fifty. She always dresses elegantly and finding a partner shouldn't be difficult for her.

What can you ask her to do

Just as she was puzzled, a hand pulled her behind the foliage.

"Yi An, you're finally here."

"Auntie Mo Why are you outside Didn't you come here for a blind date" Shen Yi'an asked.

Aunt Mo took off her sunglasses and let out a giggle.

"At my age, I don't want to find a man to bother me. It was my son who came for a blind date, but this shameless woman showed up. My son ignored her, and she started slandering him. I barely managed to convince my son to go on the date, and now I don't want her to ruin it. Please go in and help me smooth things over."

"Aunt Mo, don't worry. Which one is your son" Shen Yian comforted Aunt Mo, who was gritting her teeth with anxiety.

"The second table by the window, the one with the man in the black shirt, his name is Song Lin, he's thirty years old, 189cm tall, average personality but looks good, and he is..."

"Stop, I see. You don't need to tell me in such detail." It wasn't her blind date anyway.

Shen Yian pulled the leaves in front of her bowl of noodles and saw the man by the window with his back to her.

Although you can't see his face, the tall and straight back gives off a cold and oppressive feeling.

His long fingers rested on the glass, the swaying champagne making his fingertips appear as pure white as jade.

His profile was reflected in the glass, deep and serene.

In contrast, the woman across from him wearing a one-shoulder long dress didn't look as good.

The woman was pretty but had a cynical look in her eyes, and she would often raise an eyebrow, seeming rather cutting.

Seeing this, Aunt Mo nudged Shen Yi'an.

"Yī'ān, just rely on you."

"Well, but..." Shen Yian pointed at the people in the hall. "Could I even get into such a high-end networking event"

"Don't worry, I have prepared something for you." Auntie Mo handed her a card with a printed orchid on it. "If someone stops you, just show him this card, and he will definitely let you in."

"Okay."

Shen Yian hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.

She took her card and walked into the hall, where a waiter politely stopped her.

"Miss, please show your invitation card."

Shen Yian took out the orchid card, the waiter's eyes widened in surprise, he immediately lowered his arms and nodded respectfully.

"Miss, please come in."

Thank you.

Shen Yian looked at the card in his hand, what kind of card was so powerful

Would Aunt Mo join a membership just to set her son up on dates

Parents in the world are worthy of pity.

Shen Yian carefully put the card into his bag, afraid of losing it to Aunt Mo. Then he walked straight to the window and before he could speak, he heard the woman's sharp, sarcastic voice.

“What do you think you are Everyone here today is worth millions. You, a programmer who earns only 20,000 yuan, driving an old Volkswagen. Miss me, I'm giving you face because you look decent enough to buy me a drink, and you don’t appreciate it Let me tell you, if you don’t apologize to me, today I’ll see who dares to talk to you. You wasted all that membership fee.”

The woman finished speaking with a snort, but her gaze greedily lingered on the man's face. Her fingertips danced enticingly around the hairs on her chest.

Shen Yian felt that she was being too aggressive and quickly stepped forward to block her at the table.

"I."

"I'm talking to him, if this lady doesn't like it, then please don't waste our... time."

As Shen Yian spoke, he turned his face towards Song Lin, and the words that were about to leave his lips suddenly choked in his throat.

A stunningly handsome face, shockingly beautiful, crashed into Shen Yian's eyes. If he couldn't even look at this face, who else could he look at

Ink-like pupils, slightly raised phoenix eyes, starlight scattered, seeming affectionate yet not, stirring the heart into a chaotic mess.

He is very beautiful, but not at all feminine. His brows and eyes are cold and reserved, and even a slight furrow in his brow carries an overwhelming aura of power.

Song Rin glanced lightly at Shen Yi'an, his eyes slightly darkened, what a coincidence, Miss Ten Thousand.

Just went on a blind date right after breaking up with your boyfriend

Shen Yian felt a chill run down his spine when he was stared at like that. Did they know each other Why was he looking at him like that

The woman across from her noticed Song Lin staring at Shen Yi'an and got up angrily.

"Look at her, she's dressed so poorly. She's trying to act like she's better than she is. What's so great about her"

At least her face is real, I don't like tech faces.

Song Lin leaned back, an extra cigarette between his fingers. He lit it slowly, his thin lips releasing white mist that veiled his face, adding a touch of lazy danger.

The woman's face turned pale, and she suddenly stood up.

"As expected, he's just a poor loser who doesn't know how to appreciate things."

The woman let out a cold snort, stepping in high heels deliberately bumping into Shen Yian, and glaring at her viciously.

Shen Yian felt a pain in his shoulder and quickly reacted, extending his leg.

"Ouch!" The woman's high heel twisted, and she fell straight to the ground.

Shen Yian feigned nervousness and said, "Miss, your nose seems to be crooked."

A woman covered her nose with one hand and stumbled out.

Shen Yian bit back a smile, noticing Song Lin's gaze. He immediately returned to normal and was about to explain to Song Lin when a familiar voice came from behind him.

"Yi An How are you here You dare betray me"

It's such a coincidence to run into Gu Cheng here.

This is not a matchmaking event, is it

The man who just moments ago promised to marry her, was now appearing at a high-end matchmaking event.

Who has the qualifications to say that about her

Shen Yian turned around, looking at Gu Cheng coldly: "Why are you here Can't I be here Besides, there's no betrayal between us, we've already broken up."

Gu Cheng's eyes flashed with anger as he commanded, "Get back to me immediately. This is not a place for you."

Shen Yi'an didn't bother with him and sat directly across from Song Lin.

"Mr. Song, ignore him, let's continue."

Song Lin didn't say anything, just smoked by himself. He was aloof and ignored Gu Cheng completely.

Gu Cheng felt that being looked down upon by a man was embarrassing, so he glanced at Song Lin's identity card on the table and couldn't help but snort.

"Shen Yian, this is the person you found Just a broken programmer Can he meet your needs"

"Gu Cheng! It has nothing to do with you!" Shen Yian warned, looking at Gu Cheng.

Ke Gucheng had finally seized an opportunity to regain some face, so how could he possibly give it up

He braced his hands on the table, leaning closer to Song Lin with an air of superiority.

"Dude, it's not my fault. I just don't want you to get taken for a ride. She was with me an hour ago, and then she turned around and went looking for you. It's clear she wants you to take the fall. You have no idea how big her appetite is."

Hearing this, Shen Yian's hand under the table clenched tightly. After three years of love, she always felt that even if they broke up, they should at least leave each other some face. She never expected that in his eyes, she was so unbearable.

She took a deep breath, grabbed the glass of wine in front of Song Lin, and splashed it on Gu Cheng's face.

"Are you awake Why don't you take a look at the ID card on your collar Department director When did you get promoted A million dollars a year Happy beans What qualifications do you have to tell others"

"Shen Yian!"

Gu Cheng stared dumbfoundedly at Shen Yian, never expecting the sweet and obedient girl to actually rebel.

Because of Shen Yian's words, the people around him whispered about him, making him feel ashamed and furious. He impulsively waved his hand at Shen Yian, intending to strike him, but Song Lin grabbed his wrist with one hand and pressed it against the table. The pain made his face contort into a ferocious grimace, further humiliating him.

Song Lin, however, remained cool and composed. He even took a moment to light a cigarette between his fingers, the faint aroma of tobacco swirling above the table, not unpleasant at all.

He said impassively: “Fake watch, fake necklace, fake belt, fake identity. This place is expensive. Don't want to be exposed and kicked out in public Please disappear from my sight immediately.”

"You...."

Gu Cheng's eyes widened. He had bought perfect replicas, how could a programmer possibly tell the difference

"Three, two..." Song Lin counted down in a deep voice.

"Just go." Gu Cheng struggled free, shook off his coat, and looked at Shen Yian unhappily as he pointed to his ID card. "Yian, before long, this will be my identity. I know you love me very much, and I'm giving you a chance to regret it."

"Get out of here quickly." Shen Yian felt like every word he said was grating on his nerves.

Gu Cheng left, Shen Yian gratefully looked at Song Lin, just about to open his mouth to thank him, when a figure sat down beside him.

"Yian, congratulations on breaking up with that man. A month ago, he started joining dating sites to pick up women."

The speaker is Aunt Mo.

Originally, Aunt Mo had specifically asked her to come so that she could see through Gu Cheng's true nature.

A month ago, it was when her mother suddenly fell ill.

It turns out that Gu Cheng's so-called deep affection was all an act.

He treated her as a backup option while simultaneously searching for better alternatives.

"Auntie Mo, thank you." Shen Yi'an said with relief.

"No need for formalities, let's get straight to the point. Otherwise, you should just begrudgingly marry my son"

"...."

Whatput together a full set of makeup with all the samples combined.She picked up the only lipstick and frowned. "I wonder if it'll match my outfit"Later, when Aunt Mo gave her the clothes, she forgot to...
