Chapter 90 This guy is so low-key

"Mom, I'm about ten minutes away from getting off the highway. Which hospital are you in?"

Chen Na was driving her little Fit towards Ling County.

When she thought of her father lying on the hospital bed, she felt anxious and deeply guilty.

If she had known earlier, she would have gone back to deal with the blind date. Even if they would not be together, at least they could meet each other to reassure her parents. She could also remind her father to drink less. Her father, Chen Yongxiang, tends to listen to her.

"Nana, please go back home first."

The voice of mother Yu Shufen came from the car Bluetooth.

"Ah? Isn't he in the hospital?"

Chen Na was a little confused.

"Come home first, your father and I are both at home."

"Um okay."

Chen Na was stunned for a moment, but didn't think much about it. Maybe Mr. Chen's condition was not serious. He stayed in the hospital for one night yesterday and was discharged today.

Chen Na comforted herself and arrived home twenty-five minutes later.

Her home lives in an old residential complex in Ling County. Her parents bought the house around 06. House prices were cheap at that time, especially in a small county like this.

This house looked good in 06, but with the rapid development of real estate, it seems very simple compared to the new residential areas today.

The facilities and supporting facilities are really poor. Not to mention the basic separation of people and vehicles, there are not even elevators or gardens. Their house is on the 7th floor, and they have to climb 7 floors every time.

As housing prices rose, Chen Na's parents' income did not increase. After retiring from the factory, they ran a small convenience store. The profits were actually very meager, and it was basically impossible for them to change houses.

In fact, Chen Na has always wanted to buy a new house for her parents, but she can only save 3 to 4 yuan a year at most, and it is difficult for her to make a down payment.

"Dong dong."

Chen Na was thinking in her mind and climbed to the 7th floor unknowingly. She raised her hand subconsciously and knocked on the door. She was in such a hurry to go out this time that she forgot to bring the key to the house.

"Nana is back!"

Chen Na heard the familiar voice of her mother Yu Shufen coming from the room, but the tone was a little strange, because her father was sick, shouldn't her mother be sad, but why did her voice sound a bit happy and high-spirited?
The next second, the door opened, and Yu Shufen pulled Chen Na aside with a smile: "Nana, I want to tell you something."

"????"

"Mom? Didn't you say Dad had a stroke?"

Chen Na felt something was wrong and subconsciously looked into the room. Old Chen inside was actually chatting with the guests lively.

There were two guests inside, one was his aunt and the other was a young man he didn't know.

Chen Na finally realized what was going on. No wonder she wasn't allowed to come back last night and was told to go straight home. It turned out that her mother lied to her about her stroke and hospitalization, just to get her to come back for a blind date.

And that man should be my blind date.

Yu Shufen said with a guilty conscience, "Nana, your father and I didn't mean to trick you into coming back. It's mainly because you're not young anymore. You'll be turning 27 next month, and you don't even have a boyfriend. Look at Xiaoli upstairs and Tingting in the next building. They're the same age as you, and they already have two children."

In this kind of small county, women generally marry early, most of them get married at the age of 22-23, so her daughter Chen Na is 27 and still not married, which has always been a concern for Yu Shufen.

This kind of situation would be gossiped about by neighbors in the county town.

Yu Shufen cares about her reputation and is also worried that her daughter will not be able to get married.

"mom!"

Chen Na was so angry that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. On the one hand, she was glad that her father didn't have a stroke, but on the other hand, she was angry that her mother actually made such an excuse.

"You could just tell me straight away, why are you making up this scary excuse?"

Chen Na couldn't help but blame.

"Would you come back if I told you nicely? I've been telling you for months, but you just won't come back. If I hadn't lied to you like this, you would definitely have waited until the Chinese New Year to come back. Just think about how old you would be if you waited another year?"

Yu Shufen said unconvincingly: "After your 27th birthday, you will be 28! It will be even harder to get married!"

"Let me tell you, the blind date your aunt brought here is quite good. He runs his own company and has a car and a house. The house was bought in Zhushi City and is over 130 square meters. And the car is a BMW."

Yu Shufen took Chen Na's hand and said earnestly, "You can have a good chat with them when you go in later. They have a good impression of you."

Chen Na was a little helpless. She had already had a good impression of him even though they had never met. It was probably just a favorable impression she had after seeing two photos.

Yu Shufen pointed in the direction of the sofa and said, "Look, see, she's pretty good looking, isn't she?"

"This kind of partner is great. Stop being picky. In a year or two, you'll be thirty years old, and it will be even harder to get married then."

"Hey, okay."

Chen Na sighed silently. Now that she had already returned home, it would be unreasonable not to see her parents. She would just let them feel at ease.

In fact, she also wanted to tell her parents that she had a man.

It's just that this man can't seem to marry me.
But even so, he was very good to me. Not only did he help me open a cafe, he also bought me a house worth 300 million and even bought me a car.

It was not right for Chen Na to tell her parents about it, not to mention that Shen Yuan might not come.

I am just a canary.
With a sad heart, Chen Na followed Yu Shufen into the house.

"Nana is back."

The one who spoke was her cousin Gan Fengzhen. She invited Chen Na to sit on the sofa and said, "Nana, it's only been half a year since we last met. You've become whiter and your figure is still so good."

Chen Na nodded gently: "Thank you, aunt."

"Let me introduce you. This is Dong Qitao. He came back from Zhushi specially. He is a good friend of my son."

Gan Fengzhen said with a smile.

Dong Qitao was about thirty years old, wearing a neat shirt and trousers, and a pair of silver-framed glasses. He looked gentle and said with a smile:
"Hello, Chenna."

"Hello." Chen Na nodded slightly.

"Nana, I heard that you're working as a car salesman in Star City. That should be pretty good, right?"

Dong Qitao asked in a very familiar manner.

Dong Qitao had seen Chen Na's photo three months ago and found that she was not only beautiful and had a good figure, but also had the right age.

According to Aunt Gan, Chen Na seemed to have no emotional experience.

A woman like this is perfect to be my wife!
So for the past three months, he has been asking Aunt Gan to help him make connections, and finally, he had the chance to make an appointment today. He was a little reluctant to buy two bottles of Wuliangye and a pack of Huazi.

But now that I've seen her beauty, it's all worth it!

Chen Na replied calmly: "I don't do it anymore. I'm working in a cafe now."

Dong Qitao was slightly stunned, and then immediately reacted: "Cafés are good. Working in a cafe is much easier. Being a salesperson is really tiring."

Dong Qitao secretly complained that Aunt Gan's information was a bit delayed. How come he didn't even know that she had changed jobs?

But it’s better this way. When the time comes, Chen Na will follow me, and sales-type jobs that require exposure to the public will not be suitable for her.

Anyway, I can afford it.

"Nana, let me tell you, Qi Tao opened a company with dozens of employees. The company's annual turnover is over 10 million, and he also bought a car and a house. Qi Tao, what model is your car?"

Gan Fengzhen said this while giving Dong Qitao a look.

Dong Qitao immediately understood and took the car key from his belt, revealing the BMW logo: "It's not a good car, just a 5 Series."

Chen Na resisted the urge to roll her eyes. This wasn't even a good car. A 5 Series would cost around four or five hundred thousand yuan. It was already pretty good for an ordinary person to be able to drive a 5 Series.

But this pretense is too stiff and requires cooperation from others. Chen Na is too lazy to expose it.

Chen Na thought that she should give people some face, after all, her cousin's aunt was also a relative who would visit during the New Year, so she nodded and said, "Yes, it's not bad."

"Not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning."

In fact, Dong Qitao was also helpless. He didn't want to pretend in such a low-level way. Chen Na used to be a luxury car salesman and must have met many rich people. He just didn't expect Aunt Gan to force him to pretend, which made him look very low-class.

Gan Fengzhen greeted the two young people and let them chat. She then walked into the kitchen and said to Yu Shufen, "Look, these two are such a good match. They are a talented man and a beautiful woman."

Gan Fengzhen was cutting vegetables and couldn't help but glance in the direction of the living room. She sighed, "He's really good, but I don't know if Nana likes him."

"Whether she likes him or not depends on the man, but also on you as parents. You should say something nice to Nana later. After all, Nana is old enough to get married, so if you meet the right person, you should make a move sooner."

Gan Fengzhen said with a smile.

In fact, she is so active in being a matchmaker because she has her own selfish motives. If she helps this couple get married, the red envelope given to her by the man will definitely be quite large. The man is so well-off that she will definitely not be stingy in this regard.

After she retired, she made some extra money by working as a matchmaker.

"I will talk to Nana nicely, but this girl sometimes doesn't listen to me."

Yu Shufen replied.

"It depends on whether Nana likes it or not. Nowadays, we advocate freedom of love, and parents can't force it."

The person who spoke was Chen Yongxiang, who was washing vegetables.

In fact, he did not agree to use this excuse to "trick" Nana back, but he could not persuade his wife Yu Shufen. He cared more about the man's character and whether his daughter was happy, and the economic conditions were secondary.

After letting the two young people chat for a while, Yu Shufen put down her work and called Chen Na to the bedroom: "How is she? She's not bad, I think you two can get along well."

"Okay."

Chen Na had just been chatting perfunctorily and seemed absent-minded.

"This Xiao Dong even bought two bottles of Wuliangye and a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes for your dad. He's quite generous, so I think you two can get to know each other more often."

"How about this, after lunch, you can go downstairs for a walk and go out for a cup of milk tea or coffee or something like that."

"We'll see when the time comes. It hasn't come to that yet."

Chen Na answered casually and changed the subject: "Where's your sister? Isn't she home?"

Yu Shufen was a little dissatisfied when she heard her daughter's attitude: "You forgot that today is Friday, and your sister hasn't finished her get out of class yet, but I told her that she will come back for lunch at noon."

"Ok."

Chen Na pretended not to notice Yu Shufen's expression: "Then I'll rest for a while, and then come out for dinner."

Yu Shufen became more and more indignant: "Girl, Xiao Dong is still waiting outside. We should at least show hospitality to our guests, right?"

Chen Na blinked her beautiful eyes and said innocently, "I, your daughter, got up early this morning and drove for more than two hours."

Yu Shufen still felt sorry for her daughter and sighed helplessly: "Okay, then you take a rest, I'll call you for dinner later."

After Yu Shufen left the bedroom, Chen Na fell heavily on her sister's bed. She took out her cell phone and found that she had missed Shen Yuan's message, so she replied:

"I was really mad at my mom. It turned out that my dad wasn't in the hospital and he deliberately tricked me into coming back for a blind date."

"Don't worry, I'll be back in the afternoon."

"Mom~"

Chen Na looked at the chat interface with Shen Yuan with satisfaction, and couldn't help but want to change the note for him. Thinking of how he had cheated on her many times before, Chen Na simply typed in "a scumbag with superb deception skills".

Looking at this note, Chen Na couldn't help but smile brightly.

On the other hand, Shen Yuan received Chen Na's WeChat message and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that everything was fine.

But Chen Na is his own woman, and it is not a good thing for her parents to always urge her to get married. Even if she can deal with it this time, she will be asked to go on a blind date next time.

We have to find a permanent solution.

Shen Yuan pondered for a while, then picked up his phone and made a call.
