Although Liu Tian was puzzled by the hotel staffРІР‚в„ўs attitude towards Ye Chen, she didnРІР‚в„ўt ask him about it.
The two people walked straight to a window seat where a man in a suit was sitting.
Liu Tian knew this was her blind date, Kang Zhen.
Kang Zhen saw Liu Tian approaching, but when he noticed Ye Chen beside her, his expression briefly changed, though it was not easily noticeable.
"Hello, Miss Liu, IРІР‚в„ўm Kang Zhen." Kang Zhen stood up as he greeted Liu Tian.
Liu Tian gave a faint smile and said, "Hello, Mr. Kang. Let me introduce you to my boyfriend, Ye Chen."
Possibly because Liu TianРІР‚в„ўs mother had already told him about Ye Chen, Kang Zhen showed no displeasure and maintained a smile.
"Hello, Mr. Ye, please have a seat. By the look of your attire, you must be a delivery man. That must be a tough job, braving the elements, and one minor mistake could lead to customer complaints," Kang Zhen said with sympathy.
Ye Chen said nothing. He knew Kang Zhen wasnРІР‚в„ўt sincere and wanted to see what he would say next.
Of course, Kang Zhen planned to harshly belittle Ye Chen and win Liu Tian over.
From the first glance, he felt Liu Tian was his type, and once Kang Zhen liked a woman, he was determined to have her.
With a smile, he said to Liu Tian, "Miss Liu, I fell in love with you the moment I saw you. YouРІР‚в„ўre exactly what IРІР‚в„ўve been looking for."
Kang Zhen thought he would gain Liu TianРІР‚в„ўs favor, but the effect was the opposite.
Liu Tian found the man in front of her very insincere and calmly said, "Mr. Kang, IРІР‚в„ўm sorry, but youРІР‚в„ўre not my ideal type."
Even after hearing Liu TianРІР‚в„ўs words, Kang Zhen kept smiling.
He turned to Ye Chen and said, "Mr. Ye, let me give you some advice: leave Miss Liu. After all, the gap in status between you two is too wide. As a man, you canРІР‚в„ўt accept having a girlfriend who is more outstanding and stronger than you, right?"
"I donРІР‚в„ўt mind," Ye Chen replied calmly.
Kang Zhen thought to himself that this man was shameless, with such a clear hint, yet he remained oblivious.
"Even if you donРІР‚в„ўt mind now, the difference between you two is huge. Marriage should be between families of equal standing. You might not care, but Miss Liu is a girl, and she canРІР‚в„ўt ignore othersРІР‚в„ў opinions. Even if she doesnРІР‚в„ўt, what about her parents? Have you considered them?"
"YouРІР‚в„ўre young and not ambitious, just content with delivering packages. IРІР‚в„ўd like to know how long you plan to do it. Are you going to waste your life in such a manner?" Kang Zhen lectured like a senior giving advice.
"Tian Tian doesnРІР‚в„ўt mind, so neither do I. Maybe IРІР‚в„ўll change jobs in the future, like delivering food," Ye Chen shrugged.
This statement left Kang Zhen speechless. Apparently, that was the ambition of the young man before him.
Ye Chen didnРІР‚в„ўt engage but gave a strong counter.
Kang Zhen took a sip of coffee and continued, "YouРІР‚в„ўre still young and have no idea about the importance of money. In this society, strength is required. A manРІР‚в„ўs looks canРІР‚в„ўt fill the stomach; ability is the king."
Seeing Ye Chen, Kang Zhen understood that Liu Tian liked this man for his appearance.
Looking at Liu Tian, he continued, "Wealth is a mark of a manРІР‚в„ўs success. Girls like men with money and power. I have an annual salary of a million, a car, and a house. If Miss Liu wishes, I can make you the happiest woman in the world. Whatever you want, I can provide."
Liu Tian smiled at Kang Zhen and said, "I want you to stop bothering me. We are indeed unsuitable."
Kang Zhen ignored her words but looked somewhat embarrassed.
With an arrogant look, he said, "Mr. Ye, shouldnРІР‚в„ўt you consider the future generations? Do you want your children to live humbly too? Maybe you canРІР‚в„ўt understand this, so let me show you the power of money."
While speaking, Kang ZhenРІР‚в„ўs eyes never left Liu Tian, and the gaze was one of possession, not love.
Feeling uncomfortable under his gaze, Liu Tian thought he might be a conman, despite his boastfulness during their first meeting.
"Mr. Kang, thereРІР‚в„ўs no need to say these things to me and Tian Tian. Our love is pure and untainted," Ye Chen said.
Kang Zhen realized that regardless of his words, Liu Tian and Ye Chen were ignoring him, knowing he had to demonstrate with action.
He waved over a server who came and asked, "Sir, what do you need?"
Kang Zhen took out several hundred-dollar bills and placed them in front of the server, pointing at Ye Chen, "Get this gentleman out of here."
Seeing the server unmoved, Kang Zhen put another stack of money on the table, "Do as I say, and itРІР‚в„ўs all yours."
"Sir, this..."
The server remained still, and Kang ZhenРІР‚в„ўs face turned grim, not believing there would be people indifferent to money.
"DidnРІР‚в„ўt you hear me? Do you want me to file a complaint?" Kang Zhen threatened.
"Chairman Ye, I..." The server looked at Ye Chen with a conflicted expression.
He couldnРІР‚в„ўt possibly throw Ye Chen out unless he wanted to lose his job, but didnРІР‚в„ўt know if he should reveal Ye ChenРІР‚в„ўs identity.
Previously, Ye Chen had asked them not to reveal who he was.
"Chairman Ye?" Liu Tian heard the name again, now sure Ye Chen had an unusual status.
However, Kang Zhen just laughed, "Miss LiuРІР‚в„ўs mother said she didnРІР‚в„ўt have a boyfriend, and I found it odd. It turns out you took a courier to act like a temporary boyfriend."
Earlier, Kang Zhen was annoyed, thinking Liu Tian really had a boyfriend whom she was devoted to.
Now he knew it was all a show, acting in front of him.
Feeling confident about pursuing Liu Tian, he turned to Ye Chen, "Mr. Ye, it must be tough for you, working as a delivery man and now as a hotel server, not easy at all."
Kang Zhen mistakenly thought the server had called out Ye ChenРІР‚в„ўs name, assuming he was a hotel server.
