Yang Tao immediately showed a pitiful look, clasping her hands together: "Weiwei, since we have been best friends for so many years, please help me this time. If you go with me, you can also help me see what that person is like. If I go alone, I can't see at all."
"Taozi, how about I go with you?" Jiao Yang suddenly asked.
"roll!"
Yang Tao rolled her eyes at him: "If I take you there, my mom will tear me to pieces if she finds out."
"Weiwei, just consider it as doing me a favor. Next time you get into trouble, I will definitely help you. Please."
Lan Weiwei was dizzy from being dazzled by Yang Tao, so she could only agree: "Okay, okay, I promise, I'll go with you, but don't blame me for ruining your good fortune when the time comes."
"How is that possible? Men are not as important as best friends." Yang Tao said quickly.
After receiving the text message from Xue Sumei, Zhou Chen saved Yang Tao's mobile phone number, but did not call it immediately. Instead, he waited until the evening before dialing Yang Tao's mobile phone number.
"Hello, who are you?"
"Hello, Miss Yang Tao, my name is Zhou Chen, and I'm Aunt Xue..."
"Oh, it's you. Hello, hello."
Yang Tao, who was lying on the bed looking at the beautiful wedding dresses on the website, sat up suddenly when she heard Zhou Chen's name. She talked on the phone while holding her hair with one hand, looking embarrassed and nervous.
"It's like this, Miss Yangtao, are you free tomorrow afternoon?"
After confirming that it was Yang Tao, Zhou Chen did not beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose. He had already done everything he should do in advance, and now all he had to do was pursue Yang Tao wholeheartedly.
Yang Tao: "I'll take a rest tomorrow."
"Great, how about we meet tomorrow?"
"Uh, ok, but can I bring a friend?"
When Zhou Chen heard Yang Tao say that she wanted to bring a friend, he raised his eyebrows. He wanted to be alone with Yang Tao and of course didn't want to have an extra light bulb. However, Yang Tao had already said it. If he refused, what if Yang Tao didn't come?
Among Yang Tao’s friends, the first ones to be affected should be her male best friend and Lan Weiwei. It is definitely impossible to bring a male friend to a blind date, so it is very likely that Lan Weiwei was brought along.
"No problem, you can bring a friend, then we'll meet at..."
"I understand. We will be there on time tomorrow. Is that it?"
"Okay, then you go to bed early."

Chapter 80 Finally meet
"Xiao Zhou, did you make a date with our Taozi?"
Xue Sumei was still worried about her daughter, so the next morning she called Zhou Chen again to ask about the situation.
Zhou Chen replied: "Auntie, I have already made an appointment to meet in the afternoon."
Xue Sumei said with a smile: "Then you must behave well. Auntie likes you very much. Don't let Auntie down."
"Don't worry, Auntie, I will do my best to become your son-in-law."
"Then I will believe you, Xiao Zhou."
Xue Sumei seemed very happy, laughing. After spending two times with Zhou Chen, she found out the situation clearly, so she now hoped that Zhou Chen could pursue her daughter. There was no problem with Zhou Chen, the most important thing was her daughter Yang Tao.
Zhou Chen made an appointment at four o'clock in the afternoon. The plan was simple. They would sit together and chat first, then have dinner together. After dinner, they could go to the movies or go shopping.
However, the premise of all this is that Yang Tao can agree, and the big light bulb that Yang Tao brought must be sent away.
Before 3:30 in the afternoon, Zhou Chen had already arrived at the agreed coffee shop. He chose a seat by the side and sat down, scrolling through his phone while waiting.
What he is considering now is whether or not to sign up for a certificate such as an architectural designer, because the stocks and lottery tickets he remembered are no longer useful. If he wants to make money, the best thing he can do is naturally the knowledge and experience about architectural design he gained in the previous life.
Although there is no need for certification and my technical level is sufficient, without a certificate, I can only make a little money at most. It is almost impossible to get big projects.
As for the bridal shop that was about to open, Zhou Chen never expected to make money in the short term, and he was even prepared for losses.
For him, opening a bridal shop was to pursue Yang Tao and to give her a guarantee after they were together. He didn't expect to make money in the short term.
However, he didn't know how long he could stay in this world. Opening a bridal shop was already very time-consuming and energy-consuming. If he had to take exams to open a decoration design company, how much time would he have left?
Money is important, but for now, completing the system task should be the top priority. A year is not a long time. With the experience of the previous world, he feels that he will most likely leave after completing the task, so he must make sure that he can complete the task before considering more things.
In Zhou Chen's memory, Yang Tao, the heroine of the TV series Let's Get Married, is a very good woman. She is not vain and she longs for a beautiful love.
He can impress Xue Sumei with his wealth, but it is definitely difficult to pursue Yang Tao with this, so to pursue Yang Tao, he cannot rely on money, but more on sincerity.
Yang Tao drove to pick up Lan Weiwei. After Lan Weiwei got in the car, she saw Yang Tao's outfit and asked in surprise, "Are you going on a blind date like this?"
Yang Tao looked down at herself, wearing a white sweater with denim and tight jeans, and asked, "What's the problem?"
Lan Weiwei was quite speechless: "Isn't this too casual?"
As a woman who cares very much about her image, if it were her, she would definitely want to show her best side and would never be as casual as Yang Tao.
"I think it's great. Anyway, I don't think it will work. Do I have to go to all that trouble to buy a new set of clothes and get my hair done? There's no need."
Yang Tao looked indifferent. She really didn't expect it to work. She just wanted to complete the task her mother had assigned her. Afterwards, she could go shopping with her bestie, watch a movie, and have a facial...
"It's up to you. It's not me who's going on a blind date anyway." Lan Weiwei said.
Yang Tao teased, "You are dressed much better than me. How about I not go later and you go in my place?"
"roll."
"Haha."
The two of them quickly arrived at the coffee shop. When the time came, Yang Tao was still a little nervous. She looked in the mirror and adjusted her clothes and hair.
"Taozi, why don't I not go in? It's too awkward for me to stay beside you while you're having a blind date." Lan Weiwei said.
"No, stop talking nonsense and go."
However, Yang Tao didn't give Lan Weiwei any chance. She took Lan Weiwei's hand and walked into the coffee shop.
"Who is it?"
After entering the coffee shop, Lan Weiwei looked around and then asked Yang Tao.
Yang Tao immediately replied: "By the window, black coat."
"That one."
Zhou Chen saw Yang Tao and Lan Weiwei when they came in, so he stood up so that they could see him.
Yang Tao nodded, "That should be it. Let's go over there."
After Yang Tao came over, Zhou Chen took the initiative to greet her: "Miss Yang Tao, we meet again."
"Do you know each other?" Lan Weiwei looked at Yang Tao in surprise.
Yang Tao was also stunned, but when she looked at Zhou Chen carefully, she exclaimed in surprise: "You, it's you."
As the lobby manager of the hotel, she must have the ability to recognize people. She didn't look carefully just now, so she didn't recognize Zhou Chen. But after Zhou Chen opened his mouth, she looked at him carefully and recognized him immediately.
After recognizing Zhou Chen, Yang Tao covered her mouth and laughed: "No, sir, you, what, what's going on?"
Zhou Chen smiled and gestured: "Miss Yang Tao, and this lady, please sit down first."
"it is good."
Yang Tao pulled Lan Weiwei to sit together, and then introduced: "Mr. Zhou, this is my best friend, Lan Weiwei."
"Hello."
Zhou Chen nodded at Lan Weiwei. His guess was correct. The person Yang Tao brought was Lan Weiwei, and this Lan Weiwei was one of the options for his mission.
Although he had already confirmed that his target was Yang Tao, he was still surprised when he saw Lan Weiwei, because although Lan Weiwei was not as pretty as Yang Tao, she had a hot and sexy body and exuded a charming aura. This woman was definitely a fairy.
Although he was surprised, Zhou Chen just glanced at her. This kind of woman can be a lover, but if he really marries her home, she will most likely have a green grassland on her head and her kidneys will be damaged.
Lan Weiwei kept smiling: "Hello."
Yang Tao couldn't help but be curious and asked, "Mr. Zhou, why are you and me here today?"
Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Just call me Zhou Chen. Don't be offended, Miss Yang Tao. I did know about what happened today in advance. After I met Miss Yang Tao in the hotel before, I couldn't forget her, but I was too embarrassed to say it out loud. Later, I heard that Aunt Xue was arranging a blind date for you, so I took the initiative to contact Aunt Xue, and this is how the situation turned out."
Yang Tao's face turned red when she heard that, and Lan Weiwei next to her winked at her, making her even more shy.
It is indeed very embarrassing to meet an acquaintance on a blind date. Even though she and Zhou Chen have only met once or twice, she still feels embarrassed.
"Ms. Yang Tao, I know that what I did was a bit excessive, but I really want to get to know you better and see if there is any chance for us to develop."
Yang Tao felt embarrassed and nervous. She stroked her hair unconsciously, not knowing what to say.
To say that she disliked him was definitely not the case, because Zhou Chen did not hide anything at all and told her the truth openly. She felt a little secretly happy in her heart when someone said such things to her in public.
"I see you're not here for a blind date, but are you planning to confess your love to our Taozi in public?"
Seeing that Yang Tao didn't say anything, Lan Weiwei spoke jokingly and then nudged Yang Tao with his hand.
"Weiwei, what are you talking about?"
Yang Tao's face turned even redder, and she quickly apologized to Zhou Chen: "Mr. Zhou, Weiwei speaks her mind, please don't be angry."
"It's okay, Miss Yangtao, just call me by my name."
"Then just call me by my name." Yang Tao said with a smile.
"Okay, Starfruit."
"Zhou Chen."
After saying this, Zhou Chen and Yang Tao both laughed.
Seeing Yang Tao's smile, Zhou Chen knew that Yang Tao's first impression of him should not be bad, which made him feel relieved. He was worried that Yang Tao would have resistance because he was introduced by Xue Sumei, but now it seems that the start is pretty good.
Yang Tao did have a good impression of Zhou Chen, because Zhou Chen was willing to take the time to arrange a blind date with her through her mother, which showed that he was very sincere.
Lan Weiwei, who was standing next to him, saw this and immediately asked, "Zhou Chen, our Taozi is very innocent. Since this is a blind date, shouldn't you introduce yourself?"
"Weiwei."
Yang Tao, who was feeling good, became a little anxious when she heard Lan Weiwei's words. She thought that asking these questions right away was too realistic and would easily cause Zhou Chen's disgust.
But Zhou Chen did not feel dissatisfied. He just felt that Lan Weiwei was a bit of a hindrance. It felt like he had just come up and was ruined by Lan Weiwei.
"Yes, since it's a blind date, we should get to know each other first. Yang Tao, Aunt Xue told me about your situation. I already know a little bit about it. Now let me tell you about mine."
"My name is Zhou Chen. I used to work in the Civil Affairs Bureau, but I quit after the New Year. I plan to invest in a bridal shop, and I'm in the process of preparing now."
"what?"
When Yang Tao heard this, she exclaimed, her eyes sparkling: "Zhou Chen, you want to open a bridal shop?"
"Well, preparations have already begun. Aunt Xue took me to see a store yesterday, but it has not been finalized yet."
Yang Tao was very shocked. What was going on? Her mother took the initiative to help Zhou Chen find a storefront? How much did she think highly of Zhou Chen?
What made her even more excited was that Zhou Chen was planning to open a bridal shop. This was what she wanted to do most. Although she worked in a hotel, what she loved most was designing wedding dresses. She dreamed of having a set of wedding dresses designed by herself. So after hearing that Zhou Chen was planning to open a bridal shop, her favorability towards Zhou Chen instantly increased a lot.
Lan Weiwei asked in confusion: "Excuse me, Zhou Chen, you are a grown man, why would you want to open a bridal shop?"
Zhou Chen said: "This should have nothing to do with men and women. Bridal shops don't just rent and sell wedding dresses, they also take wedding photos for newlyweds, do makeup, and even undertake wedding celebrations. In general, they do things related to marriage."
Yang Tao smiled: "Zhou Chen, to be honest, although I work in a hotel, my favorite thing is wedding dresses. I have always dreamed of designing a wedding dress myself. If I can wear a wedding dress designed by myself and walk down the aisle, it would be perfect."
As she spoke, she was completely immersed in self-absorption, as if she had already seen that beautiful picture.
Lan Weiwei covered her forehead with her hands. She knew that Yang Tao was most likely doomed in this condition. She had to save Yang Tao and make her see the reality.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 81 Hesitant Starfruit
Zhou Chen was also in a trance when he saw Yang Tao, who was immersed in self-absorption with a sweet smile on her face.
Although he had been in love and even had a wife in Xiaoshede, this was the first time he had seen an expression like Taozi's, and it made him feel happy for some reason.
"Taozi, Taozi." Lan Weiwei pushed Yang Tao to wake her up from her fantasy.
Yang Tao, who was awakened, showed an awkward smile and apologized to Zhou Chen: "Sorry, I was a little distracted."
Zhou Chen smiled gently: "It's okay, your idea is very unique. If a woman can wear a wedding dress designed by herself when she gets married, it is indeed a very happy thing."
Yang Tao was very happy to get Zhou Chen's affirmation. She felt like she had found a confidant.
