Chapter 283 Bai Songan's blind date
Chapter 283 Bai Songan's blind date
Led by the guards, the two came to the Qian family's exclusive courtyard. As soon as they entered the reception room, Bai Yi saw Qian Shishi standing at the door to greet them.
She had met the other person at an art auction before. She was a woman with elegant appearance and gentle temperament. Her every move revealed her good upbringing and the demeanor of a lady from a noble family.
Such a woman is indeed a match for my eldest brother's gentle and elegant temperament.
As soon as the two approached, Qian Shishi immediately stepped forward to greet them. She first smiled gently at Bai Yi, and took the initiative to extend her right hand to greet her: "Sister Bai, welcome to our home."
The word "sister" directly brought the two closer together, and the voice was even more kind and gentle.
Bai Yi shook hands with her and replied with a faint smile: "Hello, Shishi."
She naturally did not miss the shy look that the other party gave her eldest brother from time to time, and she did not say many polite words, but went straight to the point: "This is my eldest brother Bai Songan, he is a scientific researcher, and he happened to be on vacation during this period, so he accompanied me to visit your house. I hope I didn't bother you."
"No, you are welcome in our family."
Qian Shishi said as she waved to Bai Songan: "Nice to meet you, Brother Songan."
She had a graceful demeanor, but her eyes were filled with tenderness like the blue waves of autumn water. Her tone of voice seemed natural, but how could Bai Yi, who was also a girl, not hear the sweetness and shyness in it?
She looked at Qian Shishi again calmly, and the previous worry in her heart completely disappeared.
This Miss Qian does not seem to be as elegant and quiet as she appears to be outside. Although she looks shy and soft, she always reveals that she is determined to get the person she likes. She is indeed worthy of being the eldest granddaughter who makes old man Qian helpless.
While Bai Yi was thinking about this, he heard a cheerful voice: "Bai Yi, you are here."
Bai Yi suddenly wanted to escape.
But at this moment, facing Qian Yuelong and his wife Gu Qingqing who were following behind Qian Yinyin, he could only smile and greet them: "Good evening, Mr. Qian, Madam Qian."
Qian Yuelong retracted his gaze from Bai Songan and turned to look at her, saying in a cheerful voice, "We are at home, there is no need to be so formal, just call me uncle and aunt."
"Okay, uncle."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, they walked towards the living room. Bai Yi was trying to ignore Qian Yinyin's starry eyes when he noticed that his elder brother suddenly stopped and asked, "What's wrong?"
Bai Songan looked at the people who were almost sitting in the reception area dumbfounded, and asked in a low voice: "Yiyi, are we here at the wrong time? Is this their family dinner tonight?"
Bai Yi turned his head and looked in the direction he was looking, and saw a group of people in uniform military uniforms and a group of people in formal clothes looking at this side in unison.
If she hadn't missed it, not only were almost all of Qian's family members present, but even Wen Yinglan was there. The other party was looking at her with a faint smile, but she still caught the cunning in his eyes.
She had only heard before that if two well-matched families had young children going on a blind date, almost the entire family would be present, especially the girl's family, who would carefully conduct an all-round investigation of the boy, even if they had already conducted a detailed investigation and understanding of the other party before that.
Bai Yi glanced at his confused elder brother and silently sympathized with him for a second.
At this time, Qian Yuelong said, "Xiaobai, Song'an, our family likes to get together for meals, it's more lively this way. Don't be restrained, do what you need to do, just treat it as your own home."
Bai Yi, who is called Xiaobai: "..."
Bai Songan forced a smile and said, "Thank you, uncle. My sister and I are visiting you so late. Please forgive us if we disturb you."
"Don't bother me, don't bother me. We all welcome young people like you to our home. It just so happens that my children are about the same age as you two brothers, so we can chat more."
"Thank you, uncle. My sister and I will come here often when we have time."
Having said that, they came to the reception area. With Qian Yuelong's introduction, Bai Yi and Bai Songan greeted everyone politely one by one.
After going through all this, Bai Yi, who knew the identity of each of them, could be said to be able to handle it easily, but for Bai Songan, who knew nothing, he just felt dizzy.
As soon as he sat down on the sofa, the elders around him went about their own business. Although they were still in the living room, the large space and the separate entertainment area for people to kill time helped him relax a lot.
At this time, the servant came over to bring him tea. He hurriedly stood up and took it with both hands. After saying thank you politely, he drank the herbal tea in his hand.
After greeting him for so long, I was indeed thirsty.
Qian Shishi, who was sitting next to him, felt even happier.
She developed a liking for Bai Songan the first time she met him, and later tried to get closer to him, but he didn't give her any chance and disappeared without a trace as soon as the event was over.
There were several times when she walked up to him and was ready to say hello, but this man didn't even look at her, let alone create a chance for them to get along.
In desperation, Qian Shishi could only ask her father to go to the Bai family and meet his future son-in-law in advance.
Therefore, Bai Songan chose her future boyfriend with full approval and support from her parents after a strict investigation. In this case, she can start pursuing him without any worries.
So when the other person put down his teacup, I spoke at the right time: "I heard from your sister that you are a scientist studying the aerospace field. I have a friend who is in the same industry as you, and may also be in the same unit. She has told me a lot about this field, and I always listen very attentively. It's just that she is too busy at work, and we don't have much time to meet, so when I saw you, I felt particularly close to you."
Bai Songan just smiled politely and corrected her: "I am just an ordinary worker in this field. I have not achieved any results. I don't dare to call myself a scientist."
Qian Shishi knew clearly whether he had ever achieved any results or not, and she liked this man who exuded a gentle and elegant temperament and had a kind and humble character.
Then he continued the topic: "My friend is Zhou Xiaoya, do you know her?"
"Senior Sister Xiaoya?"
Bai Songan's eyes lit up, and he said seriously, "She is my senior sister. She published her own academic papers in SCI when she was in college. In recent years, she has also made outstanding contributions to our country's aerospace industry. I have always admired her."
After successfully finding a topic to talk about, Qian Shishi readily responded, "What a coincidence! We all know each other. We can have dinner together when we have time. I'm also very interested in the aerospace field, so it just so happens that we have a common topic."
Bai Songan shook his head and refused: "I know Sister Xiaoya, but she doesn't know me. Everyone in our industry knows her, and many people regard her as a role model and goal in their careers."
"That's perfect. Next time I go out with her, I can just call you along."
Qian Shishi noticed his hesitant expression and guessed that he must be afraid of disturbing them, so she added: "By the way, we can discuss academic issues together. Xiaoya really likes to make friends in the same industry. And we often attend some industry seminars, and there must be many like-minded friends there."
Her words successfully dispelled Bai Songan's concerns, and she said sincerely: "As long as it doesn't disturb your party, it's really my honor. Thank you very much."
"Brother Songan, you are so polite. Why don't we add each other's contact information and come out together when we have time."
"Okay, I'll add you."
