Chapter 1369: What a Waste to Cheat Others

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Zhang Zian stared at this expensive menu, and the more he thought, the more suspicious he was.

How is this tea house that is built on the mountains and not in the busy commercial areas in the city sustaining itself?

Why did she choose to meet here?

How can she wear such a gorgeous and complicated traditional dress and climb up the mountain?

What is a girl of her caliber doing at a blind date?

There is only one possibility – Zhuang Xiaodie must be friends with the female manager already. She wore this dress in advance, hide somewhere on the top of the mountain, chooses the opportunity to show up, and then takes the man to drink tea on the pretext of a blind date. She makes him spend the money, and after that, she makes the excuse that they are not compatible and looks for another man. She will continue with this system with every man she meets. The tea house profits from the money the man spent here, and there will always be a silly man bedazzled by her beauty who will spend the money.

This makes more sense and is a more logical explanation than that of an angel falling from the sky.

I am really such a smart person!

After he figured it out, faced with Zhuang Xiaodie’s restraint and demure form, he threw that all aside and even felt a little disdained by her actions. He stared at her interaction with the waitress and laughed in his hear – fake, continue faking it! I shall see how long you will fake it till!

There are two choices in front of him. One is to get up and leave immediately, but what excuse can he give? Urgent and need to pee? What if the toilet in this restaurant is inside and there is only one exit? The second is to continue to stay and play along, and then react accordingly to what happens.

Thinking about it for a while, he decided to choose the second choice. This is because he glanced around and saw that the online host who claimed to be Little Snow had already taken a seat. She chose to sit at a table that has a good view of them and is not blocked by the screen. She kept staring at Zhuang Xiaodie and looked up and down. It seemed that she was attracted by her and planned to stay here for tea.

Although this is not something that involves Zhang Zian, he can’t bear to watch others be taken advantage of. He has to find a way to stop it.

He set the menu up to block Zhuang Xiaodie’s line of sight and desperately turned his eyes to Little Snow, which meant for her to leave quickly. At least, what she should do is to take a look at the menu at least first. If she ordered the tea and then found out, she could not afford to pay, that will be counted as having a free lunch...Alas, she was not paying attention at all.

Are girls all like that? Once there are beautiful clothes, they can seem to function and do other things?

He was wondering what other methods he should use to remind her when suddenly he felt a line of sight looking at him through the menu – yes, it is through the menu. The feeling is very strange.

He quickly laid down the menu and saw that the dialogue between Zhuang Xiaodie and the waitress had come to an end, and they were staring at him.

“Sir, are you done looking at the menu? Are you planning to order?” asked the waitress.

“Oh... I haven’t decided yet...” He plans on using delaying tactics.

Zhuang Xiaodie interrupted and said, “What are your signature teas and snacks? What will you recommend?”

The waitress immediately replied, “I recommend the superior Tieguanyin tea set meal and the superior Longjing tea set meal. The snacks are made by us, very delicious!”

“Okay. Then I will order the Longjing tea set meal,” Zhuang Xiaodie decided quickly.

“Okay! A set of the superior Longjing tea set meal!” The waitress turned back to the store manager and said.

“I want a superiorTieguanyin tea set meal.” Little Snow raised her hand.

Hey! Hello, look at the menu first!

Zhang Zian is anxious for her! This is really...if you really seek death, I can’t stop you!

“Are you uncomfortable? You don’t look so good,” Zhuang Xiaodie stared at him and said.

“No, no, not uncomfortable...”

In fact, it was the opposite. After reading this menu, he was uncomfortable everywhere.

“Look at the sir’s face. You don’t look too good. Do you work overtime often? Your face is not good, must be working overtime often? We have the Wolfberry Poria tea. It is especially good for health!” The waitress strongly recommended the tea.

Health tea? This tea sounds so expensive that if I drink it, I have to die on the spot!

He opened his mouth and asked if there was any white water. Although it was a little shameful but is his pride important or his wallet more important?

“Okay, Let’s have that.”

Before Zhang Zian can refuse, Zhuang Xiaodie decided for him.

“Ok. Please wait for me to return with your tea.”

The waitress turned back to the counter with a satisfied look.

Zhang Zian was secretly feeling pained in his heart.

The main reason is that Auntie Liu is somewhat involved in the entire issue. This restricts his choices. If he directly stood up and walked away, he will be scolded by Auntie Liu when he returns. She will probably say that he was unwilling to spend money to drink tea at a blind date, no wonder he cannot find a date. He will then implicate his parents, who will feel shameful as well.

Now that he is home, he does not want to add further burdens to his parents.

At this time, Little Snow smiled and came over from the table next to him. She gently asked: “Hello, miss, I am a host doing a live broadcast. The audience thinks you are beautiful and the clothes you wear are even more beautiful...Do you mind if I take a video of you and screen it in my show?”

If it is any of the other hosts, they will go ahead and capture her without asking. Perhaps they might be thinking; me videoing you is helping you to get famous. However, Little Snow is different and always communicates with the subject before shooting them. This is to prevent any unnecessary invasion of their privacy by others. Of course, if it is unintentionally photographed, there is no way to handle that. After all, it is a live stream.

“Yes, of course, you can. Little sister, you are also very beautiful.” Zhuang Xiaodie smiled, and perhaps intentionally or unconsciously, she glanced at Zhang Zian and gave a natural and appropriate pose.

Zhang Zian feels that this glance of hers seems to contain the meaning of showing off. However, he does not know what she has to show off; isn’t she merely a gold digger?

Obviously, she is a beautiful girl. She can do anything she wants in life. Why did she choose to gang up with others to cheat people...

Little Snow, on the other hand, doesn’t feel like she is showing off. Although she was not ugly, and her fans often politely praised her as a beautiful woman, she is nevertheless very self-aware. This other girl here is of a beauty standard far superior to her. She is inferior when placed next to her.

She asked Zhuang Xiaodie about the same questions as what the waitress asked; where did the clothes come from, and the jewelry that looked very beautiful, where did she buy them from...

Zhang Zian is feeling somewhat agitated. How can one not ask the most critical question – how much is it?

Zhuang Xiaodie’s answer is still that she makes the clothes and that the jewelry is a family heirloom.

Little Snow has a good eye for detail. Although her fans still have a lot of questions to ask, with a lot trying to suck up the Zhuang Xiaodie, she nevertheless could tell that the two individuals are here for a date. Excessive use of their time and be a lightbulb does not seem to be a good thing to do. After a few questions, she knowingly went back to her seats and waited for her tea.

Zhang Zian hoped that she would stay because facing Zhuang Xiaodie directly was a little awkward for him. He doesn’t know what to say.

Fortunately, Zhuang Xiaodie did not stare at him but watched the female shopkeeper use some traditional techniques to make the tea. Sometimes she nodded slightly with approval. Sometimes her eyebrows unconsciously came together slightly, and she gave a little frown. He doesn’t know if she understood what was going on or if she was pretending.

As there weren’t many people around, they did not have to wait long — the three sets of tea and refreshments were soon delivered to the respective tables.

“Please, slowly enjoy your meal,” the waitress said as she set down the tea. Then, she headed back to the counter.

Zhuang Xiaodie did not follow the order of “Snap, Send, Eat” like many modern girls, but instead naturally picked up the teacup.

Zhang Zian’s hand also reached out for the cup and wanted to drink the tea to make up for the awkwardness.

When he looked down, he noticed a yellowish-brown cat hair was lying quietly on the table.
