Chapter 205: Chapter 198: Moving Forward
Ming Kai is actually a man with good qualities in all aspects. Heās handsome, well-built, and has an impressive educational and family background. Setting everything else aside, heās indeed a suitable marriage candidate.
Since heās already downstairs, Bai Yiran had to meet him; it would be impolite to simply send him away.
After tidying up her things, just as the elevator arrived, Bai Yiran stepped inside with small steps.
"Wait!" As the elevator doors were about to close, Bai Qianyu came running from behind, swiftly entered the elevator, and her expression turned a bit stiff upon seeing Bai Yiran inside.
Bai Qianyuās phone rang, and her previously stiff expression instantly softened with affection upon seeing the caller ID, even her voice exuded tenderness when answering the call, "Missing me? Oh, Iāve already left work... So annoying..."
Besides the two of them, there were other colleagues in the elevator. Bai Qianyu, talking on the phone so indifferently, coupled with the poor signal inside the elevator, caused her voice to become loud, inevitably making it a bit bothersome for others.
Bai Yiran glanced at Bai Qianyu, knowing she was showing off. She recently started dating a guy who was the heir of a certain corporation and seemed to treat Bai Qianyu very well. Consequently, she had been distracted at work lately, even messing up several simple tasks.
Yao Zhiqing, out of fondness for Bai Qianyu as her former student, didnāt make a fuss, but it often ended up with Bai Yiran cleaning up the mess, which really annoyed her.
Bai Yiran stepped out and saw Ming Kai leaning against his car, arms crossed, waiting there. Upon seeing Bai Yiran, Ming Kai waved at her.
"Get in." Ming Kai had already opened the car door for her as Bai Yiran approached.
"Iām really meeting my sister tonight." Bai Yiran didnāt want to prolong things; there was simply no possibility between them.
"Get in first, Iāll take you there." Ming Kai glanced at his watch, "At this time, itās not easy to find a taxi, right?"
Alright, Ming Kaiās reason successfully convinced Bai Yiran. During the evening rush hour in this city, getting a taxi was practically as difficult as reaching the sky.
Bai Yiran obediently got into the car as Ming Kai closed the door for her, then rounded the front of the car to sit in the driverās seat.
Bai Qianyu came out just in time to see Bai Yiran getting into a manās car, feeling indignant. This was the difference between her and Bai Yiran; one was picked up by the man, the other had to take the initiative to meet him.
Inside the car, Bai Yiran looked out the window, the traffic was terrible.
Not long after getting in, Bai Yiranās phone rang. She thought it was Cheng Shishi, but upon checking the caller ID, discovered it was Leng Yichen.
She hung up the phone immediately, not wanting to hear his voice.
Leng Yichen called again, and Bai Yiran hung up once more.
Again and again, Leng Yichen kept calling as if challenging her. Bai Yiran simply turned off her phone to avoid getting a headache.
Ming Kai casually turned on the car stereo, playing a soft English song. "Why not answer your phone?"
"Hmm?" Ming Kai suddenly spoke, and Bai Yiran, lost in thought, didnāt hear him clearly, "What did you say?"
Ming Kai smiled helplessly but changed the subject, "Last night, my parents asked about our meeting."
"Mm, and then?"
He looked at Bai Yiran, today he seemed completely different from yesterday, the indifferent face was gone, and he maintained a smile at least up to this point.
"And I think itās good."
"Good?" Bai Yiran looked at Ming Kai, thinking yesterday they had made things clear, they were both forced into it, and the meeting was just a matter of formality.
"Yes." Ming Kai looked at Bai Yiran with a doctorās unique focus, "Bai Yiran, I want to continue developing our relationship."
