Chapter 2: Chapter 02 First Meeting, My Name is Gu Nanxi_1
The man, dressed in a light coffee-colored casual suit, had a handsome and elegant face and exuded an unusual charm. His hands rested leisurely on the armrests of the chair. Outside the glass window, the sunlight bathed him, but instead of giving him a warm and intoxicating aura, it added a cool and tranquil stubbornness to his demeanor.
At this moment, he was like a painting delicately carved by the hands of time. He sat there naturally, with an air of nobility and grace, his presence impossible to ignore!
"Yes, I am Lu Yinchu!"
The man's gaze landed on the chair opposite him, gesturing for her to sit before speaking.
Nanxi was a bit embarrassed. Given the curious glances around them, she felt somewhat impolite and quickly sat down, placing her bag aside!
"What would you like to drink?" He casually pulled out a simple coffee menu, asking in a casual manner, "Cappuccino? Girls usually like it!"
Before she could respond, he signaled for the waiter. Nanxi froze, quickly stopping him, "Mr. Lu, it's not necessary, you don't have to order anything for me!"
"Hmm?"
"I prefer to drink tea!" Nanxi explained, "The culture of Chinese tea is deep and profound!"
After saying this, Nanxi wished she could bite her tongue... What was she even saying?!
The corners of the man's lips curled into a smile, "Trust me, trying something different once in a while can be refreshing!"
Turning to the waiter who had been waiting by their side, he raised an eyebrow and demanded, "cappuccino, please!"
"Certainly, sir, please wait a moment!" The waiter answered politely and left.
Feeling embarrassed, Nanxi lowered her gaze. Then she suddenly remembered something and hastily looked up at the man, "Mr. Lu, I am not your blind date Liang Qiaoqiao, I am Gu Nanxi. Qiaoqiao is my cousin, she had a sudden emergency and couldn't make it. But your phone was off and she couldn't reach you, so she asked me to come and tell you in person... I am really sorry!"
Nanxi was sincere, emphasizing the phrase "in person".
The hidden message: Because of your unreachable phone, sir, it cost me ten bucks for a taxi and it pinched a hole in my tight budget for the time I usually spend on my work to come all the way here to inform you. Aren't you ashamed?!
The man smiled faintly, "Sorry, my phone was out of juice!"
"..." Alright, emergencies do happen. Although this reason was quite irritating, it was common!
The coffee arrived. The man, with his long attractive fingers, waved in front of Nanxi's eyes and brought a cup of coffee to her, "Try it, this shop makes a pretty decent Cappuccino!"
"Do you come here often, Mr. Lu?" Nanxi asked.
Actually, what she meant was: Mr. Lu, do you often order cappuccinos for girls?!
"My sister likes it. Whenever I pass by, I usually get a cup for her to take home..."
After speaking, he took a sip of his black coffee, his expression indifferent.
Nanxi glanced at him with a puzzled expression. He was looking down, his long eyelashes slightly trembling, his handsome features softening, entrancing to her sight, her heart... Nanxi gasped: he's enchanting!
Nanxi sat straight and composed, quietly sipping her coffee. Initially, she had planned to leave after delivering the message, but now that he had paid for it out of politeness, she decided to finish her coffee before leaving!
"You said your name's Gu Nanxi?"
"Cough cough cough..." Nanxi didn't expect the man to suddenly speak, given there had been a silence of about ten seconds in between. His unexpected hearing made her cough, choking on her coffee. Her fair face turned an instant red...
Nanxi felt utterly embarrassed. As she was scrambling for a handkerchief in her bag, a neatly folded blue handkerchief with golden edges was suddenly handed to her...
