Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 900: Dating

Since Xiang Wai had come with Xiang Weimin, she had to take a taxi on her way back. She gave the driver the location while she pulled out her phone to check. She already received Zhai Yanjun's text that he was already there.         

    

She looked very impatient as she kept urging the driver to drive fast. But the location they chose for their date was a little far so it still took her over half an hour to get there. Thankfully, the rush hour wasn't here yet or she'd be spending hours on the road.      

When she arrived there, she looked around to find Zhai Yanjun and it didn't take long to find him in the big crowd. Only he was the one with short hair and such a straight posture like he was standing at attention in the assembly.      

"Jun!" she called out and when he noticed her, his eyes brightened up. The face that gave off a cold aura was suddenly like sunshine. Xiang Wai was stunned by his smile and on impulse, she ran over and jumped to hug him.      

Thankfully, he caught her and hugged her back saying, "You should be a little careful." She grinned in response. "By the way, I don't think that's how people meet on their first date."     

"Oh?" Xiang Wai stepped away from him. She composed herself and said, "You're right. This is our first date. I forgot for a moment."      

Zhai Yanjun smiled lovingly at her and finally got the chance to show her the sunflowers bouquet he held in his hand all this time. Xiang Wai was taken aback. She didn't even notice that he had flowers with him.      

"Although you aren't a big fan of these, this is still one of the steps we have to take," he told her. "So, I hope you like these flowers."     

"Why sunflowers?" she asked as she took the bouquet from him.     

"Because we both are like sunflowers," he answered. "We both made each other sun and continued to follow each other for years even when it burned us."     

Xiang Wai held the bouquet which didn't go well with her tough girl persona very well but who cared right now? She was over the moon to have received the flowers from someone she loved so much that it hurt. It hurt but she still stubbornly loved this person. It was just good to know that he was the same as her.     

The person whom she thought would never love her was actually madly in love with her. How could that not make her happy?     

"So, where are we going today?" she asked.     

"I heard about a famous parfait place," he told her. "They always have a long queue outside the shop. The business is very good. And girls seem to love it very much. You like desserts so I thought it was a perfect place for our first date, what do you think? Is it okay?"     

Xiang Wai was holding herself from grinning foolishly. That won't look good. She had to keep reminding herself to behave properly.     

"It sounds fine," she told him. "But we'll have to queue up in this sun?"     

"No," he told her. "You're here just at the right time. It's our turn now."     

Xiang Wai couldn't smile for a moment when she understood the meaning of those words. He had been standing here for a long time in the burning sun to get them a table inside. She didn't know how to feel at the moment. But the feeling that overwhelmed all the others was that she felt so bad for him.     

Taking out a pack of tissue, she wiped his sweat. Only now, she understood why he was sweating so much.      

"You'll go silly at this rate," she commented.     

Zhai Yanjun's eyes were glued to her as she wiped his sweat with worry so visible in her eyes. Who cared about what she said right now? Silly? He was okay with it.     

It seemed Shui Xian was right, if he was sincere, it didn't matter how simple their date was, it'd still be the best time of their life together. He should start listening more to Shui Xian. At least, he had experience with dating. And he had a lot to learn from Shui Xian.      

"Shall we go inside?" suggested Zhai Yanjun.     

"Mm..." she hummed in response and followed him inside the parfait place.     

He wasn't lying when he said it was a place famous for girls because she could see girls everywhere. Some were in groups, some were just pairs. But all of them seemed happy here trying out their favorite flavors.     

She obviously won't tell him that she just had desserts. Well, the more desserts the better. She would never say no to more desserts. Besides, earlier she had cakes. Now, it was different.         

    

"Which flavor would you like? I heard the chocolate parfait is good. But you like fruits as well. So, how about Grapefruit, lime, and mint parfait?" he was introducing her to the most popular flavors and adding his own comments about which suited her palette and all.      

Xiang Wai placed her hand on his as she said, "You seem to have done a lot of research for this."     

"It's my first date, I have to impress my date," he told her. "I can't do a shabby job at this now, can I?"     

Xiang Wai smiled at him, "You can order whatever you like. I'm fine with all. I feel like trying all."     

"Okay," he agreed. He made the order for both of them and patiently waited for their order to come.     

"I heard your battalion is very busy these days," she started. "Don't tell me you're gonna get in trouble because of coming out for this date?"     

"Don't worry," he told her. "I rarely do this. No one will mind. Not my commander for sure. I told him that I'm courting a wife so he was more than eager to let me leave the Base after the work is done."     

Xiang Wai gaped at him, "You did not tell him that."     

"I did," Zhai Yanjun didn't hide it from her. In fact, what he didn't say was that, everyone in his battalion knew at this moment that he was courting a wife.
