Chapter 4 004: Why Choose Me

Sunny Saturday.

Shen Tianchang chose a light blue one-piece skirt, tied his shoulder-length hair into a ball head, matched it with a pair of small red cherry earrings, and deliberately put on a pure and well-behaved makeup.

She took a taxi to the agreed address.

In the cafe called "April" on Yunbei Road, Locke's old lighting and bright sunlight render the whole building a warm, dim yellow. When you open the door and enter, the first thing you see is postcards and photos all over the wall.

The whole cafe was very quiet. There was only one waiter standing on the bar counter. When he saw someone entering the door, he hurriedly greeted him:

"Excuse me, is this Miss Shen Tianchang?"

Shen Tianchang nodded: "Yes, I have an appointment with Mr. Lu."

"Okay, please come with me."

Shen Tianchang followed the waiter up the spiral staircase to the second floor of the cafe.

She saw the figure sitting by the window from a distance.

He was wearing a blue and white casual shirt, and dark gray trousers perfectly wrapped his two slender legs.

His sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, and he was holding a cup of coffee in one hand and operating a mobile phone in the other.

Shen Tianchang looked at the side face that was exactly the same as the photo, and a trace of nervousness flashed in his heart for no reason.

Until the waiter's voice sounded: "Boss Lu, Ms. Shen is here."

Lu Zhifang finally turned his head slightly.

He met Shen Tianchang's eyes.

Shen Tianchang was completely stunned at that moment. Even though the profile photo had prepared her mentally, Lu Zhifang's real face was still beyond her imagination. He had eyes as black as deep pools, and he was firm and upright. The bridge of the nose looked like a sculptor's masterpiece.

The sunlight hit his body through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the golden outline outlined the perfect proportions of his facial features, which seemed a little unreal at that moment.

It is really unimaginable what kind of storm of public opinion would have been caused if a clear frontal photo of him was taken back then.

Lu Zhifang looked at Shen Tianchang who was stunned on the spot, his dark eyes concealed all his emotions:
"Hello, Miss Shen."

Shen Tianchang finally came to his senses, in order to deliberately cater to the well-behaved temperament she created today, even her smile was tainted with standard gentleness.

"Hello, Mr. Lu, I'm Shen Tianchang!"

She sat across from him, turned to the waiter and asked for a cappuccino.

Lu Zhifang looked down at the phone again.

It wasn't until the waiter brought up the cappuccino that he looked up at Shen Tianchang again:
"Sorry, I have work to do."

Shen Tianchang smiled: "It's okay, I'm not busy, I'll wait for you."

The atmosphere began to fall into silence again.

A ringtone from the mobile phone finally broke the silence, Shen Tianchang picked it up to check the caller ID, and pressed it.

The bell rang again and was pressed again.

After repeating this four or five times, she simply turned off the phone.

She took a deep breath, touched the file bag by her hand, and looked at Lu Zhifang:
"Mr. Lu, in fact, someone asked me to bring someone else's information to show you today. Do you want to read it?"

Lu Zhifang's eyes paused, his eyes moved away from the phone screen, and he raised his eyes to look directly at Shen Tianchang.

"Miss Shen, are you here to go on a blind date for someone else?"

The tone was so light that there was not even a trace of sarcasm or questioning.

Shen Tianchang silently put the file bag in his hand aside.

The question is straightforward.

"Mr. Lu, why did you choose me?"

Lu Zhifang remained indifferent: "There is no reason."

"Then... does Mr. Lu have a girl he likes?"

Just as Shen Tianchang finished speaking, Lu Zhifang's cell phone rang a notification tone.

He retracted his gaze, opened the unread message, and only saw half of it. His eyes, which were originally calm and unmarked, suddenly stirred up waves.
