"No...it can't be her, can it?" Li You couldn't help but feel hopeful, his eyes following her intently. Before he knew it, she was already standing in front of him, and Li You hadn't even reacted yet, his mind still thinking, "Is it really her?"
A beautiful and intellectual voice rang out: "Hello, Li You? I am Tan Xiaorui. It's nice to meet you!" She then extended her right hand to Li You.
"Really! It really is her!" Li You saw the hand extended in front of him and realized what was happening. He stood up abruptly and grabbed Tan Xiaorui's hand: "You are here, I am Li You!" As soon as he finished speaking, Li You realized that he had lost his composure and wished he could slap himself a few times.
Tan Xiaorui withdrew her right hand, gently stroking her skirt from her hips down to her legs, and then sat down in the chair opposite Li You: "So nervous to see me?" As she spoke, an alluring smile appeared on her lips, and she crossed her legs in a slightly provocative manner.
This scene not only stunned Li You, but also the other men in the coffee shop. Even the women in the coffee shop, seeing the men's reaction, curiously cast their gazes at Tan Xiaorui. In an instant, she became the focus of everyone's attention.
"Aren't you going to sit down? Want to be a model?" Tan Xiaorui said, opening her sexy red lips.
Li You then realized that he had lost his composure again: "I'm sorry, I...you..." Li You said as he sat down, but he couldn't get the rest of his sentence out for a long time.
Tan Xiaorui smiled sweetly: "Am I too beautiful?"
If an ordinary person had said this, Li You would have definitely called them a narcissist. But coming from Tan Xiaorui, who was sitting across from him, he not only found it perfectly acceptable, but even agreed wholeheartedly, and couldn't help but utter a soft "Mm!"
"Excuse me, here's your coffee. Please enjoy." The waiter came over and placed two cups of coffee on the table. As he did so, his eyes kept glancing at Tan Xiaorui's long, beautiful legs. He then noticed that she was wearing a pair of flesh-colored, ultra-thin stockings. The waiter had noticed Tan Xiaorui before she entered the room and initially thought she was bare-legged, which made it even harder for him to control his gaze. But there was nothing he could do. After serving the coffee, he had no choice but to leave. He instinctively felt that the two cups of coffee had been served too quickly or that there wasn't enough coffee. He thought it would be better if they ordered a few more.
Tan Xiaorui picked up her iced Americano, took a sip, and said, "Let me introduce myself first?"
"Okay, Ms. Tan, please go first!" Li You relaxed a lot after being interrupted by the waiter.
"You know my name. I'm two years older than you, 165 cm tall, and my weight… well, that's a secret. I graduated from Zhejiang University and currently work as an advertising planner at Lantian Advertising Company. My annual salary is also confidential. I'm a local from Hangzhou. My parents are still alive, and I have a younger sister. That's about all I know about me. Now, tell me about you." After Tan Xiaorui finished speaking, she picked up her coffee and drank it again, looking at Li You with great interest.
He knew about Lantian Advertising Company; it was headquartered in Beijing and was a very famous advertising company in China. Those who could get into this company were all elite talents. Zhejiang University, needless to say, was a prestigious institution. He was inferior to her in both work and education. Plus, being looked at like that by her made him a little nervous: "Um, my name is Li You, I'm... two years younger than you, 22 this year, 183cm tall, 150kg, and I just graduated a little over six months ago. Now I'm starting a small IT company with my classmates..."
That's all?
"Oh, oh, I'm also a local from Hangzhou. My parents are still alive, but they're divorced. I've lived with my mother and Uncle Zhang since I was little. Oh, Uncle Zhang is my stepfather. Although I grew up in a blended family, both sides have been very good to me. Um... that's about it." Li You finished speaking and awkwardly picked up his coffee.
"Are you an only child?" Tan Xiaorui's voice came as Li You was about to bring his coffee to his lips. Li You immediately put the coffee back down: "Yes, oh... oh, no!"
Tan Xiaorui looked at Li You, who was completely infatuated with her, and chuckled, "Is it true or not?"
"No, no, it seems my dad had a little sister, but I've only met her a few times. I just couldn't remember," Li You said, waving his hands repeatedly.
"That doesn't count, you're practically an only child now…" Tan Xiaorui looked at Li You in silence for a moment, then continued, "Are you satisfied with me now?"
"Satisfied!" Li You said decisively as soon as Tan Xiaorui finished speaking.
"You don't mind me being two years older?"
"I don't mind!"
"Okay, I have no further questions. You can go back now."
"Huh?!" Li looked at the other person, somewhat at a loss.
Tan Xiaorui said with a smile in her eyes, "We've met and gotten to know each other, so of course you can go back. It's rare to hear... you..."
"Oh, right, I'll head back now!" Li You said, standing up. "It was a pleasure meeting you, Miss Tan. Goodbye."
After Li Youchao bowed slightly to Tan Xiaorui to express his gratitude, he quickly walked out of the coffee shop. Although he was reluctant to leave, he didn't dare to look at her again, because he was afraid that if he looked at her a few more times, he would lose his composure. He didn't understand what was wrong with him. How could such a smart and decisive person like himself seem to have lost his ability to think in front of her?
"Li You, let me walk you to the subway station." Li You had just stepped out of the coffee shop when he heard Tan Xiaorui's voice behind him. He turned around and saw her standing outside the coffee shop, smiling at him.
"Okay!" For some reason, he seemed to stop being nervous at that moment.
