Chapter 472: Chapter 472: Are You Going on a Blind Date Again?
Once Qiao Yin hung up the phone, Song Zhu’s gaze softened a bit, “Doctor Qiao, what would you like to eat tonight?”
“I’m up for anything, but it’s better if we can find a quieter restaurant, convenient for us to talk.”
“Alright, I’ll make a reservation then.”
At five-thirty in the afternoon, Qiao Yin went to the reserved restaurant with Song Zhu.
Song Zhu had wanted to drive her, but Qiao Yin insisted on driving her own car. This way, it would be convenient for her to go home after the meal, without having to return to the hospital to get her car.
Song Zhu was slightly disappointed, he had hoped to talk more with her in the car.
However, the restaurant he had chosen for today was very stylish and quiet. When it came to meal time, they could chat for a long time.
Just to chat a little bit more with Qiao Yin, he had even brought loads of hospital data, and stayed up all night preparing several operation schemes.
Although most of them were readily available schemes copied from the internet, he thought they would suffice for tonight.
The interior of the restaurant was low-key yet luxurious, filled with upper-class diners, each one impeccably dressed, exuding an air of wealth with every move.
Qiao Yin was probably the most casually dressed customer here.
While others were dripping in designer wear, she didn’t have a single brand-name item on her. She simply wore a white shirt and casual pants, she hadn’t even worn a dress today.
She followed Song Zhu to a table by the window and started ordering once they sat down.
With romantic, soothing music playing in the restaurant, combined with candles and white roses on the table, and a crystal lamp twinkling overhead, it was simply the perfect dating spot.
As Song Zhu looked at Qiao Yin sitting opposite him, his heart raced.
Under the lights, her fair skin glowed with a radiant luster, revealing its finesse at first glance.
Her eyes were so beautiful, clear and pure, suggesting a very innocent person.
Her nose was straight and exquisite, and her lips full and moist.
Song Zhu believed that her beauty was near perfection.
He had noticed a young actress seated at a corner table when they walked in. She had recently filmed a TV drama and gained some popularity due to her pretty face.
However, that young actress pales in comparison to Qiao Yin.
Already, many people in the restaurant were sneaking glances their way. Evidently, both men and women noticed the stunning beauty of Qiao Yin.
Yet, Qiao Yin herself seemed oblivious to her own beauty. All her attention was on the menu and then the operation schemes Song Zhu brought, giving no heed to the gazes she was attracting.
Only when the restaurant’s door opened and a group of people walked in did her attention shift momentarily.
But she lowered her eyes again very soon and started eating while leafing through the files.
Seeing her pay attention to others for once, Song Zhu couldn’t resist asking her, “Doctor Qiao, do you know those people who just walked in?”
“One of those people is Lu Lingche from Shengling Group, who often appears in the news. Don’t you recognize him, Doctor Song?”
“I’ve indeed seen him in the news. Did you know him from there too, Doctor Qiao? Or do you know him personally?”
“I…”
Just as Qiao Yin was about to say she knew him from the news, she looked up and found Lu Lingche walking toward her with his assistant.
She froze.
She had thought that since he was dining with others this time, he wouldn’t bother her again. But he was heading over!
The people in the restaurant also recognized Lu Lingche. His face was too well-known and his presence too overwhelming, it was hard not to recognize him.
Qiao Yin couldn’t help but shrink back into her seat.
She was kind of freaking out. Why did she always run into him every time she went out for dinner?
She really didn’t want to have any association with him in public, fearing becoming a subject of gossip.
Five seconds later, Lu Lingche was standing right in front of her.
With a cold voice, he asked, “Qiao Yin, are you on another blind date?”
