Tenant's Secret Love

Chapter 72: Unexpected meeting

After I finished talking about letting Daphne treat me to dinner, she looked at me again, unable to decide whether to laugh or cry. After a while, she said to me, "Then I'll treat you."

I was suddenly relieved. This awkward situation was resolved by my own cheekiness. After thinking about it, I said to Daphne, "When you go back, don't tell your parents that I don't have money to treat you to dinner. If this gets back to my parents' ears, it will have a really bad effect!"

"Don't worry, I won't tell. Just think of it as treating a friend to dinner!" Daphne said cheerfully.

I gave Daphne a thumbs-up and said, "Girl, you have a good sense of awareness, I really admire you."

"Alas! It's not that I have a high sense of awareness, I really have no choice in this matter! You said that the two of us came out on a blind date, and you don't have the money to pay the bill, so it must be me!" Daphne sighed with a smile.

Daphne's words made me feel a little embarrassed, and I said awkwardly, "I heard that on the road of blind dates, you will definitely meet one or two weirdos, and you met me, right?"

"If you want to talk about weird, you definitely take the cake."

I glanced at the wallet Daphne had placed on the table and then said something even weirder: "Look, we know each other pretty well here, so why don't you be a good person and do this for me? I really need money right now, so why don't you lend me some? I'll pay you back when I get a job and start earning a salary. It won't take long, two months at most."

"How much do you

Daphne then took out 1,000 yuan in cash from her wallet and handed it to me. I said "thank you" and shamelessly accepted it again.

About half an hour later, Daphne and I finished dinner. In the end, I used the 1,000 yuan I borrowed from her to pay the bill. Of course, this was still a good result, and I could consider it as treating her to dinner, because I would definitely repay the 1,000 yuan borrowed from her.

In the night, Daphne and I stood in front of the coffee shop. I asked her, "How did you get here?"

"I took a taxi."

"Then let me give you a ride home."

Daphne shook her head and said, "No, my home is not far from here, and it's easy to take a taxi."

I didn't insist, because I understood that if a woman generally refuses a man's offer to give her a ride home, it means she is not satisfied with the man.

Of course I understood Daphne. It would be strange if she was satisfied. After all, she was already of marriageable age, and more consideration had to be given to the man's financial foundation.

Although I understood, I was still a little disappointed, because innocent love is becoming less and less common in an era where money is needed to prove everything, and it has even become extinct.

After a short silence, I said to Daphne, "Then give me your phone number, so that we can get in touch when I pay you back."

Daphne nodded and gave me her number. I wrote it down and smiled, saying to Daphne, "I hope this blind date experience hasn't left a bad impression on you."

"No, I think you're quite interesting. At least we didn't get bored together,"

I joked, saying, "Alas! You saying this makes me feel even more apologetic, as if there's nothing else to recommend you apart from being able to joke around."

"Everyone has something to offer, you just need time to discover it. But you really need to work hard at it. After all the kisses, you're the only one..." Daphne suddenly realized something and stopped talking.
