Chapter 58 I had to go on a blind date
Song Qinian hadn't taken the initiative to talk to him for two days, and Ning Qingzi hadn't taken the initiative to talk to the other party.
The news of the two was already two days ago.
Song Qinian didn't seem to have the intention of breaking the ice, and Ning Qingzi simply didn't stay at home, and planned to go out for a walk to change his mood.
Taking the initiative to please is never her choice.
"Why are you going, Qingzi, this is another appointment with a friend?" Ning Mu's kind voice sounded from the living room, with an easily imperceptible temptation.
Ning Qingzi casually agreed, "Well, go out for a walk by yourself." ”
"Qingzi, ......," Ning's father, who was sitting next to Ning's mother, spoke at this time.
He doesn't usually communicate much with his daughter, but he has never been less pampered.
As soon as he spoke, the atmosphere unconsciously became a little heavier. "You're not too young, in your early twenties."
"What's wrong Dad?" Ning Qingzi looked at Father Ning, not understanding why the other party suddenly said this.
Ning's father was silent again, looking at his daughter for a long time before he spoke. "I made an appointment for you today."
Listening to this not quite right tone, Ning Qingzi frowned. "With whom?"
"Mr. Liu, who has cooperated in business before, people say they like you very much." Father Ning spoke at this time. "Every time we meet, we talk about you and talk about you several times."
“…… Dad, do you agree? Ning Qingzi looked at her father, and her beautiful lips were flattened into a straight line.
Father Ning sighed, his tone full of weakness. "Qingzi, you know the situation of our family."
"The company is getting more and more sluggish now, and there has been a problem with funds for a long time, and the Ning family will not be able to get up again."
"I won't hide it from you, that Mr. Liu made an appointment with me today, I ...... I gritted my teeth and said yes. ”
Father Ning told his daughter truthfully, "But if you don't want to go, don't go, the rest ...... Your mom and I will try to figure it out again. ”
That being said, if there was a way, he would not have agreed to Mr. Liu's invitation.
There was a dead silence in the living room.
Looking at her parents sitting together with sad faces, a sense of powerlessness gradually emerged in Ning Qingzi's heart.
Especially when looking at his father, looking at each other's aging faces, and feeling powerless and tired are hidden in the countless wrinkles.
Naturally, she could rightly refuse.
Ke Ning Qingzi didn't say anything, just took off his sneakers and stepped on the bright and beautiful high heels, announcing his silent answer.
Since he promised his parents that he would go to meet with that Mr. Liu, Ning Qingzi would naturally prepare well before going to the restaurant that the other party had set.
The restaurant is very stylish, and as soon as you open the door, you can hear the melodious sound of the violinist inside, while several tables of guests are quietly eating.
She looked around, and it didn't take much effort to find the Mr. Liu, who had a beer belly, a bald head, and a vain complexion.
"Hello Mr. Liu, I'm Ning Qingzi." She walked over generously to introduce herself to the other party, and then sat down.
Mr. Liu's eyes lit up when he saw her appear in front of him.
His gaze almost changed from Ning Qingzi's sitting, and he never left the other party. "Miss Ning is more beautiful than in the photo, and her figure is also good."
These words were a little too explicit and offensive for the first meeting, but Ning Qingzi just smiled and picked up the menu next to her, beckoning the waiter to order.
The elegant and rich London accent naturally flowed out of Ning Qingzi's mouth, and every word seemed to be natural in the other party's pronunciation.
Waiting for Ning Qingzi to finish ordering, Mr. Liu spoke again.
"Presumably your father has already told me about my situation."
He raised his right hand and waved it as he spoke, "I won't hide it from you, I am forty-six this year, and I should be two rounds older than you." ”
Hearing this, the corners of Ning Qingzi's mouth twitched faintly, she thought that what the other party said could be so natural and open and honest was cheeky enough, but then she saw that the other party directly put his hand on the back of her hand.
"Being old naturally has great benefits, and I also have the experience of taking care of people-"
Mr. Liu was obviously an anxious person, and as soon as his hand touched the silky back of Ning Qingzi's silky hand, he was a little flustered, and he was even covered by his own pig hand.
"And we don't talk about business, just call me Mr. Liu."
"Mr. Liu." Ning Qingzi smiled deciprocatedly and obeyed the other party, and at the same time, by cutting steak with a knife and fork, she escaped from Mr. Liu's control and harassment.
She resisted the urge to gag in her heart, and showed that she was very friendly to Mr. Liu on her face. "We have a lot of time to get to know each other, and we are not in a hurry to do so."
Mr. Liu was originally a little unhappy when he saw Ning Qingzi withdraw his hand, but at this moment, he was happy when the other party said this.
"Yes, yes! We still have a lot of time to find out! ”
He smiled happily, and then during the meal, he was occasionally distracted by Ning Qingzi's rhythm, so he forgot that he was going to do it just now.
Ning Qingzi only felt that this meal had exhausted most of her mind, and after she coped with Mr. Liu's "gentlemanly behavior" of refusing the other party's "gentlemanly behavior" of sending her home after eating, she lost the interest of staying outside, and went back to Ning's house.
When she went home, Ning's father and Ning's mother rarely didn't sleep, but sat in the living room.
Almost at the moment when the door opened, Ning's father and mother looked at the door in unison, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they realized that it was their daughter who came back.
"Qingzi, how's it going?" Father Ning got up and asked his daughter with concern.
If Mr. Liu can change his mind and help the Ning family temporarily, everything will not have to be worried.
Ning Qingzi pulled the corners of her mouth, took off her tired high heels and changed them into slippers. "It's okay."
Her answer was so-so, and as soon as Father Ning heard her say this, he immediately asked, "Then you just think you can accept it?" ”
Hearing this, Ning Qingzi took off his coat for a moment.
She immediately looked at her father, "Dad, you won't say that I should marry him, right?" ”
When these words came out of Ning Qingzi's mouth, she felt ridiculous when she heard them herself.
But then seeing Ning's father nodding his head in a matter-of-fact manner, Ning Qingzi turned his head to look at Ning's mother again, and found that his parents had the same reaction, and his already low mood dropped directly to the bottom now, sinking to the point that he couldn't sink anymore.
“…… Are you kidding? Ning Qingzi couldn't accept it, and even lost some of her voice.
She looked at her parents sitting in front of her, "I can be his daughter directly, Dad!" ”
"Isn't it a general performance on twilight love TV, that art comes from life." Ning's mother also tried to persuade her daughter, pulling Ning Qingzi to make her calm and calm. "In our family's current situation, if Mr. Liu can help out, it will definitely be a charcoal in the snow......"
"You just grit your teeth and marry him, people's property has increased several times compared to ours, and you will live a good life if you go, Qingzi."
"Mom knows that you are wronged, but if there is no better way, how could your father and I be willing to let you go...... To marry that kind of person? ”
The daughter is naturally the mother who knows the most distressed.
But the reality is that as long as Ning Qingzi marries Mr. Liu, the Ning family will be able to turn over and seek a glimmer of life.
Ning Qingzi's face tightened and she didn't speak, but as Ning's mother chattered, her face became more and more embarrassed.
No matter how depressed and unbearable she is, she will not marry that kind of man.
Thinking of what the other party did to herself in the restaurant today, Ning Qingzi took a deep breath.
"I'll think about it."
After finishing speaking, she didn't look at her parents' faces, and went back to her room upstairs.
