Top Grade Immortal Emperor in the Flower City-Chapter 496 - 506 Blind Date
Kalan Café is a high-end café in Donghai City, and most of the patrons here are white-collar workers and elites from various industries, or even the gold-collar class.
Ye Ling couldn’t help but look at Mo Xing in front of him, the lad was decked out in famous Senma brand clothing today, his feet clad in a shiny new pair of Xtep shoes.
Originally a young master graced with a notable family heritage, but outfitted as he was, he seemed like a greenhorn fresh into society.
"Let me tell you, man, with women nowadays, you can’t just look at their appearance, you’ve got to see their hearts, you know? We’ve got to devise a way to reveal their ugly faces, only then can we decide whether to take them or not," Mo Xing said, schooling Ye Ling over a cup of coffee. Ye Ling nodded and couldn’t help laughing, "Look at you, being all pretentious, aren’t you?"
"Well, women being materialistic is actually quite understandable. Who doesn’t want to find a capable man to ensure a quality life in their later years?"
"That’s called pursuit. Of course, you’ve got those who get all mysterious and tell their boyfriend they’ll bear him a chubby baby in six months right after they start dating—those we resolutely cannot accept."
Mo Xing nodded in strong agreement, "Not just that, also those who go, ’I’m sorry, you’re a good guy, an honest guy,’ are all out of the question."
Ye Ling nodded, fully agreeing. Over the years, it was as if those honest guys had desecrated someone’s ancestral tomb; the way they were slandered, barely anyone could stand it.
Then there’s the good guy card, beep once, and it’s like swiping a card to get on board. These two categories make men keep their distance, fearing to confront them.
"Wondering what kind of person Yu Qing set you up with, don’t know if she’s reliable or not."
Ye Ling shrugged his shoulders, while Mo Xing chuckled, "Let me tell you, from what Yu Qing said, she’s a college student from the countryside, probably a very simple and genuine woman."
"Heh, this time, I, young master, am in for some peach blossom luck. I’m telling you, I have a premonition that this time I’ll definitely find my destined one," he said excitedly.
As they spoke, suddenly two figures stood in front of Ye Ling and Mo Xing’s table. When the two men looked up, they saw two women.
One of them wore a form-fitting uniform skirt, with a small bag slung over her shoulder, her long hair cascading to just above her shoulders, makeup applied, lips painted a fiery red, and fairly attractive.
Standing next to her was a woman in her twenties, dressed quite ordinarily with a ponytail, smiling faintly, and looking refreshingly pretty, a sight for sore eyes.
"Excuse me for interrupting, but which of you is Mo Xing?"
The backpack-wearing woman said with a light smile, and Mo Xing quickly stood up, pointing to himself. The woman nodded, "I’m Liu Wan, Yu Qing’s classmate, and this is my friend Li Ke."
"Come on, have a seat, have a seat, waitress, two of your finest coffees, please," Mo Xing invited eagerly, full of hospitality. Ye Ling nodded. The woman’s looks were indeed nice, but who knew what her character was like.
As Liu Wan and Li Ke took their seats, Liu Wan flicked her hair over her shoulder and whispered, "Let’s cut to the chase, may I ask where you are working now?"
Mo Xing’s cup suddenly paused in mid-air, and then he grinned, "Well, I’m kind of slacking off, currently jobless. But finding a job, if I want one, is pretty easy."
As he spoke, a subtle look of disdain surfaced in Liu Wan’s eyes. She nodded, "What about your parents then?"
Mo Xing laughed carelessly, "My dad is just an ordinary civil servant, and my mum’s a full-time housewife at home."
Liu Wan nodded, seemingly disappointed, "So you’re not working, how do you support yourself? Are you relying on subsidies from your parents?"
Mo Xing quickly shook his head and waved his hands, "Not at all, no, I earn enough for my own expenses, and supporting a family is definitely not an issue."
Ye Ling nodded as well. The woman’s questions were fairly normal, and he didn’t dislike them.
Liu Wan nodded, sipped her coffee with her head down, and fiddled with her phone without speaking, creating an awkward atmosphere. Mo Xing glanced at Ye Ling and then asked with a smile, "So where do you work?"
"Me? I work at a public company, earning just ten to twenty thousand a month. It’s not much, but I can support myself, no problem."
Her words were fine, but it was Liu Wan’s tone that irked Mo Xing, as if she was being dismissive or, more so, mocking.

What is all this? At the bare minimum, you should ask a person about themselves. But straight away, it’s all about family background and money, nothing else?
Mo Xing wanted to say more, but suddenly Liu Wan’s phone rang. She answered with a few "hmm’s," then stood up and patted Li Ke beside her, "We need to go; something’s come up."
"Sorry, we have to leave first. We’ve got something to attend to. Please continue to sit," Liu Wan said.
After finishing her words, Liu Wan and Li Ke turned to leave. Liu Wan walked away briskly, while Li Ke turned around, nodding apologetically to the two men.
Mo Xing’s eyes were bloodshot with anger. Damn it, what’s all this? A perfect gold digger if there ever was one.
Yet Ye Ling just laughed and patted Mo Xing. "Alright, don’t get angry. I tell you, I read Li Ke’s face earlier. She has a very good fortune-boosting appearance."
"That Liu Wan, though, her Heavenly Court isn’t full enough, her chin is too sharp, and she has a glint of romance in her eyes. Even if things worked out, she definitely wouldn’t be easy to deal with later on."
Mo Xing was taken aback and nodded in agreement. "Well, let’s get Yu Qing to get Li Ke’s number later. As for Liu Wan, I disliked her the moment I saw her. Damn it."
"Just because it’s realistic doesn’t mean it has to be like that... why get angry? Let’s not drink anymore. Let’s go and have some fun."
Saying this, the two got up and headed for the parking lot. Meanwhile, Liu Wan, who was standing by the parking lot, was yelling on the phone, "Yu Qing, what kind of person did you find for me? Just a poor guy. His father is okay, a civil servant, but what’s the use of that? In the future, don’t introduce me to such people."
Liu Wan hung up directly after speaking. In this economic city, a civil servant’s salary isn’t even enough to support a family. Find more chapters on novelbuddy
She was someone determined to soar high and become a phoenix. How could she stoop so low as to marry a poor guy? Tsk tsk, just look at the clothes he’s wearing—it’s so tasteless.
Li Ke, however, appeared quite embarrassed. "Xiao Wan, isn’t it a bit rude for us to just leave them hanging like that?"
"Rude? What’s rude about it? It was a waste of my time."
While speaking, Liu Wan’s eyes suddenly lit up. She quickly rubbed her eyes, astonished to see Mo Xing and Ye Ling getting into a Maybach.
Impossible. They didn’t look the part at all. How could this be!
Liu Wan couldn’t believe it and took a deep breath, a slight smile forming as she headed toward the car.
Just as Mo Xing and Ye Ling settled into the car, there was a knock on the window. Liu Wan stood beside the car with her purse, smiling radiantly.
"My affairs are done. Where shall we go to have fun?"
Liu Wan asked with a smile. Mo Xing also let out a heh-heh. "Sorry, I have some things to deal with. Goodbye."
With a swish, the car vanished within the parking lot.
