Chapter 1756 - 1758: Sabotaging the Matchmaking
From not far away, hearty laughter could be heard occasionally, and they were quite enjoying the conversation.
Yang Dong’s hand, holding the teacup, subconsciously tightened, and he did not even notice that the water in the cup had overflowed.
He had only one thought in his mind: he must stop their matchmaking.
It wasn’t that he was trying to bolster himself by belittling the other; it was just that the other person seemed a hundred times better than someone like him, a country bumpkin.
This urge to disrupt the matchmaking grew stronger, prompting him to suddenly stand up. Just as he was about to go over, he saw the people over there also standing up.
Have they finished talking and are about to leave?
As he was puzzled, he watched as Chuntao’s third brother and the matchmaker left, leaving only Li Chuntao and the man.
Yang Dong’s expression soured even more; this was the sign that the match was going to proceed successfully.
He lifted his leg and strode toward that table.
"Excuse me, have you finished talking?"
Such words made Li Chuntao and Chang Qing look up at Yang Dong.
Upon seeing Yang Dong, Li Chuntao was extremely surprised; why was he here?
Long time no see, the injury on his face was gone, and he looked much more handsome than when she last saw him.
Chang Qing didn’t know they knew each other, but politely asked, "Brother, do you know us? Is there something you need?"
Yang Dong looked at Chang Qing, his lips curled slightly, indicating he intended to drive him away, "If you’ve finished talking, it’s my turn to talk."
Such words made the originally calm Chang Qing’s eyes widen, "What do you mean by that?"
"I’m also here for matchmaking, I’ve been waiting over there for quite a while, you guys should be about done, right?"
These words indeed shocked Chang Qing; he looked at Li Chuntao and asked, "Miss Li, is that so? Besides me, have you arranged to meet someone else?"
At that moment, Li Chuntao, sitting there, felt a little dazed, as if something flickered across her mind, but she couldn’t catch it. As she tried to think carefully, her head hurt; this reaction prevented her from replying to Chang Qing.
But Li Chuntao’s silence made Chang Qing feel that she was acquiescing.
Chang Qing’s eyes were full of disappointment.
He understood that a girl with good conditions like Miss Li would have many choices when choosing a husband. He didn’t hold any grudge and could empathize, but he couldn’t understand her approach, arranging matchmaking in a queuing manner at the same time and place. It felt like she wasn’t taking him seriously. Even if they truly ended up together later, perhaps she wouldn’t take him seriously.
At this time, Yang Dong spoke again, "Hey, brother, you two don’t seem to match well. You look a decade older than her. The two of you together seem more like father and daughter."
These words made Chang Qing’s face turn dark, but he controlled himself, after all, he wasn’t a country wild man. He stood up, cupped his hands, and said, "Miss Li, in that case, I’ll take my leave."
The meaning couldn’t be clearer: the matchmaking was off.
Seeing him leave, Yang Dong sat down triumphantly. After sitting down, he noticed Li Chuntao’s face didn’t look good, so he nervously asked, "What’s wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Li Chuntao didn’t respond but glared angrily at Yang Dong.
This made Yang Dong’s heart sink, had he gone overboard? He only intended to disrupt the matchmaking, using the tactic Li Chuntao had previously employed. But at that time, he hadn’t taken a liking to the other party and felt Li Chuntao had saved him by driving away his matchmaking candidate.
But now, perhaps Li Chuntao hated him to death. Maybe she actually liked the person he just drove away. He immediately realized his mistake, like a child who had done something wrong, "I’m sorry."
