Wednesday.
Chen Ningxi received a phone call from her father asking her to come to Xianyue Restaurant.
Remembering their last unpleasant father-daughter meeting, Chen Ningxi felt she couldn't skip it.
Parking in front of Xianyue Restaurant, Chen Ningxi took a deep breath before opening the car door.
Since university, her contacts with He Yunyi had diminished, having met at class reunions only twice, with just a brief exchange.
Now suddenly being matchmade with him felt awkward no matter how she thought about it.
Standing at the door of the private room, Chen Ningxi built her mental courage before entering. She smiled awkwardly and said, "You're all here, sorry I'm late."
"You're not late, we just arrived too," He Yunyi said as he stood up to greet her, "Long time no see, class secretary."
Hearing the familiar title, Chen Ningxi felt as if she had returned to high school and her tension eased.
"Long time no see, class president," Chen Ningxi replied with a smile.
