Shen Mingyue hadn't seen Zhou Shen before, but she could imagine what a man in his 40s looked like, nothing more than a big belly, a copper smell, no matter how bad it was, he might have been bald, so Shen Mingyue didn't pay much attention to Zhou Shen, but because of Shen Yuelin's coercion, and the Zhou family's fame was too great, Shen Mingyue didn't want to offend easily, so she came to this appointment.

However, Shen Mingyue has a good impression of Zhou Shending's restaurant, Xiuzhong Pavilion, authentic Jiangsu and Zhejiang cuisine, the store is not big, but the dishes and decoration are extremely exquisite and thoughtful, belonging to Yecheng's high-end but not high-profile low-luxury Chinese restaurant.

Shen Mingyue arrived a little earlier than the scheduled time, and sat in her position and took out a small mirror to touch up her makeup a little bit.

Although the person she was going to see later was just an old man who was a little older in her eyes, she would definitely not like it, but in terms of her competitive character, if this "blind date" couldn't be avoided, at least she should reject this man, not that this man looked down on her, so Shen Mingyue still wanted to greet her in her most perfect state.

Besides, if you think about it, a young and beautiful woman and an elderly uncle go on a blind date, even if she doesn't have hope for the other party, even if she only receives the other party's stunning and satisfied eyes, this is also a very cool thing.

Shen Mingyue slowly touched up her makeup with this mentality, and took out her favorite lipstick and applied it seriously.

The light in the private room is orange and bright, and Shen Mingyue's complexion is particularly good after touching up her makeup, which is also the reason why Shen Mingyue likes this restaurant.

It seems that this Zhou Shen's taste is not too vulgar, at least not like the average rich boy who can't wait to stick all his money on his face when they meet for the first time.

The waiter in the restaurant brought exquisite snacks, and Shen Mingyue asked for another pot of Pu'er, and slowly tasted it and waited for Zhou Shen.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the corridor next to the private room sounded a conversation.

"Mr. Zhou, Miss Shen has arrived, you go in from here." The waiter's courteous voice.

"Okay, thank you!" Shen Mingyue's heart was hot in a calm male voice with a little magnetism, although she hadn't seen his face yet, she had already given him a score of 60 for this humble and polite voice.

Then there was a sound of footsteps in the corridor, Shen Mingyue pinched the teacup and looked to the side, next to it was the oak hollow carved wall, through the hollow place, you could vaguely see the people walking towards the private room.

The most ordinary light gray suit, although the facial features cannot be seen clearly, it can be seen that the man is very tall, at least 183CM or more, and his posture can also be seen from the walking posture is extremely upright.

Shen Mingyue's favor for him instantly rose to 70 points.

"Mr. Zhou, please come here." The waiter who led him over gently pushed open the door of the private room.

He nodded slightly: "Thank you." ”

The door was completely opened, and Zhou Shen walked in.

Shen Mingyue saw the person coming clearly, and stood up with a "whoosh", all the blood seemed to rush to the position of the heart, and stopped suddenly in a second.

Why has no one ever told her that the only son of the Zhou family is like this?

"Miss Shen, I'm sorry to keep you waiting." Zhou Shen walked to Shen Mingyue's face as usual, and seeing that her face was a little weird, he first stretched out a hand to her politely.

"Hello, I'm Zhou Shen!"

Shen Mingyue didn't react, and Zhou Shen could only fill the smile in his eyes a little more.

"Hello, Miss Shen, I'm Zhou Shen!"

"I'm sorry." Shen Mingyue came back to her senses and shook hands with him crampedly, her expression was clearly panicked, but she hated herself so much that she wanted to die.

Anyway, she is also the eldest lady of the Shen family, what superior man has not seen? How did you get so cramped and uneasy by a single week?

"Sit down, although it is the first time to meet Miss Shen, I still hope that each other can easily finish this meal." Zhou Shen had already sensed Shen Mingyue's uneasiness, smiled, and first unbuttoned one of his suits and sat on the chair.

Shen Mingyue stood stunned for a few seconds, and it wasn't until Zhou Shen looked at her that she realized that she was rude, and immediately sat down with a smile, awkwardly pinching the teacup and drinking a few sips of water to suppress her shock.

Oh no, it's not just a surprise, it's a surprise!

Shen Mingyue didn't forget to secretly glance at Zhou Shen twice, the man opposite had a sinking gaze, a modest attitude, and an extremely simple and thoughtful dressing style, and he didn't see anything outstanding, but just sitting on the opposite side, some uncertain temperament was revealed.

Steady but not mediocre, elegant but not soft.

This was Shen Mingyue's first impression of Zhou Shen, and her favorability rose suddenly, but what made her feel even more surprised was still to come.

Ordering, asking her opinion, making up for her, handing tissues, and occasionally making eye contact with her during the banquet, the two don't talk much, but this man exudes a unique charm in every move.

He's obviously sitting across from you, a meter away from you, but you can't feel close.

But this kind of alienation makes you not hateful, as if it is between demeanor and etiquette, will not snub you, and will not show too intimacy to you, the scale and atmosphere are controlled by him very well, but people can't help but want to get closer, but a pair of his elegant eyes will suddenly retract.

What an unpredictable man who finds too challenging.

Zhou Shen came with a perfunctory mind for Zhou Hongsheng.

Shen Mingyue's conditions are good, young, beautiful, with a good temperament, and her net worth background is barely worthy of the Zhou family, but she, like thousands of women in this world, makes him not detect a little novelty, so he maintains the courtesy of a gentleman and tries his best to cooperate with the end of this meal.

It wasn't until the chairman finished eating that the waiter brought a few exquisite Soviet-style dim sum, accompanied by homemade fragrant tea, which was the reason why Zhou Shen liked Xiuzhongge so much.

"Miss Shen, try it, the dim sum here is very famous." Zhou Shen is still polite.

When Shen Mingyue heard this, she pinched a small piece of osmanthus cake and put it in her mouth, it was so sweet that she immediately frowned.

"How?"

"It's delicious."

She lied, how could Zhou Shen not see it, so he no longer persuaded her to try other snacks, and quietly drank the tea in her cup, but at that time, the wooden mallet door in the middle of the private room suddenly shrank up, and behind the door was a bamboo curtain, through which I knew that there was actually a small cubicle next to this private room.

Fingers brushed over the strings, and the sound of the guzheng suddenly floated......

Zhou Shen's fingers pinching the teacup tightened suddenly, and when he turned around, there was a white figure sitting behind the curtain, wearing ancient clothes and a square hat.

"The piece he played is called "Four Sections of Brocade", which is divided into four sections, each of which has a different artistic conception, but it is hard to imagine that a male pianist can also play this piece so well." Zhou Shen couldn't help but comment.

Shen Mingyue didn't understand this, but replied with a smile: "I didn't expect Mr. Zhou to understand music and rhythm." ”

"I don't understand, but I just listen to it when I'm idle."

By the time he said that, the luthier behind the curtain had already played the third stanza, and the stream flowed like a stream flowing through the pebbles, light and bright.

Zhou Shen couldn't help clapping his hands, but the pianist behind the curtain seemed to be free from any external interference, immersed in his own rhythm alone, and the strings became more and more busy when he transitioned to the fourth section.

Zhou Shen was glad that he chose this restaurant, otherwise how could he hear such a natural sound.

Because there was a meeting in the afternoon, Zhou Shen couldn't stay for a long time, so he paid the bill and left the restaurant at the same time as Shen Mingyue.

Shen Mingyue drove by herself, she didn't need Zhou Shen to send her, and left after greeting him, Zhou Shen stood at the door of the restaurant for a while, and finally couldn't help but go back.

"Excuse me, is the pianist who played the guzheng in the private room just now an employee of your restaurant?" Zhou Shen pulled a waiter and asked.

The waiter thought for a moment: "You mean the one who was hired temporarily, he is not a regular employee of our restaurant, he is a student of the nearby conservatory, and he works part-time here!" ”

After the waiter answered, Zhou Shen was a little disappointed, and when he turned around, he saw a back floating at the door, wearing a white robe, holding a guzheng in his arms, and a slender waist.

Shen Mingyue drove directly to the airport after leaving Xiuzhong Pavilion.

Shen Yuelin had been on a business trip a few days ago, and the afternoon flight arrived in Yecheng, and Shen Mingyue just had time to pick up the plane.

Seeing his glamorous daughter standing in the crowd waving happily to him, Shen Yuelin's fatigue and pressure disappeared a lot.

"Why did you suddenly change sex today and come to the airport to pick me up?"

"I just made an appointment to eat outside, and besides, it's strange for my daughter to pick up my father?" Shen Mingyue hugged Shen Yuelin's arm and coquettishly, she couldn't hide the excitement and joy in her heart, and after thinking about it, she said, "Dad, that Zhou Shen asked me to eat at noon today." ”

"Oh?" This news made Shen Yuelin also shocked, and turned to look at Shen Mingyue's expression.

She smiled softly, and the beautiful look on her face already showed that the noon date was going well.

"How? How do you feel about Zhou Hongsheng's son? ”

"It's okay..."Shen Mingyue's tone was astringent, with a little daughter-like shyness.

Shen Yuelin laughed all of a sudden, and he could already rest assured when he saw his baby daughter's expression.

"Just okay? It seems that this week Shen is really good, the man who can make my daughter say it's okay, as if he is the first! ”

"Dad!" Shen Mingyue blushed and went to beat his arm, Shen Yuelin laughed even more presumptuously, but after laughing, he suddenly grabbed Shen Mingyue's shoulder, and his tone suddenly became serious.

"Mingyue, since you think Zhou Shen is good, you should take advantage of it, serve a snack, don't miss this marriage."

"But he's so much older than me."

"It's just a teenager, although Dad knows that he has wronged you a little, but Zhou Shen is Zhou Hongsheng's only son, so you shouldn't miss his net worth background." Shen Yuelin looked at the outstanding daughter in front of him and sighed, "Dad might as well tell you the truth, the catering industry has become more and more difficult to do over the years, and my health is not as good as before, it is really tiring to rely on your brother alone, if you can become the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, it will be a good thing for our Shen family." ”

The words have been made very clear, the Shen family wants to win over the big tree of the Zhou family.

In the past, Shen Mingyue was quite disgusted with her father using his lifelong happiness to fight for the interests of the Shen family, but this time she didn't refute it, and only asked: "Dad, is it true that the situation of the Shen family in recent years is as rumored by the outside world and is difficult to maintain?" ”

Shen Yuelin didn't answer, but the tired and lonely expression on his face had already given her the answer.

"You are Dad's most painful daughter, Dad has never wanted you to worry about the company's affairs, the company's situation has been really bad in recent years, but fortunately, your brother is capable, and he won't be too bad to hold on, not to mention that your brother is about to get engaged to Shanshan, the Chi family has strong financial resources, once your brother becomes the son-in-law of the Chi family, I think Chi Zhengxiong will not sit idly by and ignore our Shen family, if you become Zhou Hongsheng's daughter-in-law again, I will rest assured......"
