At the dining table, Shu Xin was holding Zhao Heng and chatting non-stop.

Meanwhile, Xu Man Ni sat alone on one side of the dining table, glaring at the sweet and cute girl Shu Xin who had interrupted.

"Let's introduce ourselves. I'm Shu Xin's uncle, Wang Yaoqing."

The middle-aged elite man, with bright eyes, looked at the solitary Xu Man Ni sitting to the side and spoke.

"Xu Man Ni."

Xu Man Ni replied briefly, not in the mood to chat with this well-dressed and obviously wealthy man in front of her.

She has seen too many of these rich men.

Yet, this indifferent attitude and aura only increased Wang Yaoqing's interest.

"Oh dear, senior, I forgot to introduce you, this is my uncle."

"Uncle, this is the senior I've mentioned to you."

Shu Xin quickly introduced the two men to each other.

"You still remember your uncle, huh?"

Wang Yaoqing said, looking helplessly at his niece.

Lately, his niece had constantly been mentioning this senior, almost making him tired of hearing about it.

Seeing him today, well, not that impressive, though handsome, beside the alluring beauty, he seemed like just another pretty boy living off a woman.

"Why don't you come over and sit here!"

Wang Yaoqing said to Shu Xin with a heavier tone.

"Alright then."

Seeing her uncle somewhat angry, Shu Xin reluctantly let go of Zhao Heng's arm, stood up, and sat beside her uncle.

Whereas Xu Man Ni quickly stood up and sat in Shu Xin's previous seat, tightly holding Zhao Heng's arm, without letting go for a moment.

She never anticipated that the day's good atmosphere between her and Zhao Heng would be disrupted by a sweet girl.

As a woman, Xu Man Ni naturally understood how lethal such exceptionally cute and lively girls could be to men.

Seeing Xu Man Ni tightly holding Zhao Heng's arm, looking very possessive and anxious, Wang Yaoqing was even more puzzled.

Such a stunning beauty in looks, aura, and figure, why would she be so focused and anxious about such a kid?

A little girl like his niece favoring a handsome senior is understandable, but why would this gorgeous beauty fall for Zhao Heng?!

"Hello, I'm Shu Xin's uncle, Wang Yaoqing."

Wang Yaoqing said to Zhao Heng, deciding to take the initiative to learn about the young man before him.

"Hello, I am Zhao Heng."

Zhao Heng nodded.

So, it's the uncle.

Upon the initial encounter, Zhao Heng thought this wealthy-looking middle-aged man might be Shu Xin's benefactor or something?!

Cough cough, shouldn't think like that, thinking of the junior like she's someone questionable!

How sinful, how sinful!

"What line of work are you in, Mr. Zhao?"

Wang Yaoqing asked in a business-like manner.

"Currently in the anesthesiology department at Eastern Hospital."

Zhao Heng answered calmly.

Though this uncle of Shu Xin appeared to be a wealthy man.

But whether wealthy or not, what does it have to do with him?

Therefore, Zhao Heng wasn't intimidated at all inside: you're wealthy, I have my tricks!

"Anesthesiology? From what I know, the annual income shouldn't exceed three hundred thousand, correct?"

Wang Yaoqing pondered as he spoke.

A true business elite, opening his mouth and closing it, measuring one's work by income.

"Uncle, the senior is very talented, even our professors say he is a role model."

Hearing her uncle's somewhat aggressive inquiry, the clever Shu Xin smoothed things over.

"This uncle must be running a business, right? Is your annual revenue over a billion?"

Unable to take Wang Yaoqing's questioning, Xu Man Ni countered directly.

"The business volume indeed exceeds a billion, and the actual net profit is around ten million."

Being retorted by Xu Man Ni, Wang Yaoqing wasn't angry at all and replied realistically.

Of course, this was also to showcase his financial power.

Making over ten million annually, this already constitutes a rare breed in society, a dragon among men indeed.

Ten million?

Thought it would be more.

Upon hearing this, Xu Man Ni looked at Wang Yaoqing disdainfully.

There were plenty of men claiming incomes of millions, even billions, who had pursued her.

After all, in North City, an annual income in the millions, even billions, isn't something unattainably high.

Regarding Xu Man Ni herself, the properties under her name have a combined value of millions.

Moreover, these business people rarely utter the whole truth, claiming ten million, it might just be a few million; business folks tend to exaggerate.

"I apologize, asking about income is a professional habit, I didn't mean it that way."

Seeing how Xu Man Ni looked at him, Wang Yaoqing realized his direct questioning about income was impolite.

Cough cough...

Zhao Heng glanced at Wang Yaoqing, then at Xu Man Ni.

One with an annual income of millions, one with property worth millions, sitting here with an income possibly less than two hundred thousand, Zhao Heng felt like he had no right to speak.

Sorry, seems I'm in the wrong place.

Zhao Heng thought to himself.

Suddenly, the atmosphere grew a bit awkward.

"Senior, you haven't ordered food yet, how about ordering some first?"

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Shu Xin suggested.

"Forget it, let's sit over there instead."

Zhao Heng slightly shook his head, pulling Xu Man Ni to stand up, heading to their originally reserved seat.

Soon, Zhao Heng and Xu Man Ni reached their reserved seat, sitting side by side.

Only then did Xu Man Ni show a bit of smile, jokingly saying to Zhao Heng: "Well, willing to leave your little junior now?"

Xu Man Ni was quite satisfied with Zhao Heng decisively pulling her for a private meal.

"It was just a coincidence running into them."

Zhao Heng said.

"Fine, let's order, I'm hungry too."

Xu Man Ni didn't press further; for her, Zhao Heng's action of taking her in was indicative enough.

During such times, only foolish women would probe into the past and question what the junior-senior relationship was.

"Mm."

Noticing Xu Man Ni didn't inquire further, Zhao Heng felt inexplicably relieved and nodded.

On the other side, Shu Xin pouted, dissatisfied, saying to Wang Yaoqing: "Uncle, it's all your fault, you made the senior leave!"

"How is it my fault? What did I do wrong? Just asked about the income."

Wang Yaoqing said dissatisfied.

"Besides, your senior is probably quite shrewd, I'm worried you might suffer."

After pausing briefly, Wang Yaoqing preached earnestly.

Thinking back to how Xu Man Ni seemed anxious and attentive towards Zhao Heng, Wang Yaoqing couldn't help but shake his head.

Generally speaking, at Zhao Heng's age, a man like him shouldn't attract a beauty like Xu Man Ni.

This indicates that Zhao Heng must possess remarkable skills.

"It's not like what you think, the senior is the most sincere person I've met."

Hearing her uncle's remarks, Shu Xin protested unhappily.

"How many people have you met? Saying such things."

Wang Yaoqing remarked indifferently.

"Hmph~ Don't bother talking to you, I'm calling my mom, you bullied me!"

Shu Xin pouted, took out her phone, and threatened.

"Alright, alright, no need for calls, I won't say anything more."

Seeing his niece take out the phone, the usually composed Wang Yaoqing became a bit anxious and tried to soothe her.

Wang Yaoqing fears nothing, but he's afraid of his sister, an inherent bloodline suppression ingrained since childhood!
