Married to his secret crush

''I think my parents will like you,'' Caleb said.

Shi Luo's jaws dropped, ''You want to marry me because your parents will like me.''

''Let us not bring marriage in this equation for now…''

''Why would you come to a blind date if you don't want to marry?'' Shi Luo interrupted him. Did he lose a few screws in his head while growing up?

Caleb pursed his lips. He did not remember the last time he talked so much in barely a few minutes, ''I am sitting on this blind date mainly because of circumstances that need me to get married. Marrying you on the other hand, is another thing. We were friends back when we were young but now we can get to know each other. If we hit off, we can take the next step," he tilted his head to the side, placing his chin on his fist.

Shi Luo leaned back on the chair. His words made sense but…

Her phone vibrated in her hand. She looked at the text she received from her mother.

Mom: Is the blind date going well?

Shi Luo replied with a 'yes'.

Mom: I forgot to tell you that he used to come to our place when you all were young.

Shi Luo: He just told me.

Mom: Luoluo, I have looked into the information about him, I had asked Jian Yu to check about it. Caleb is a nice guy, with a great background. He is rich but is not arrogant. He treats his staff like family and is a very gentle person. I believe he is the perfect man for you.. Do not disappoint me. Now stop talking to me and focus on him.

At this moment, Shi Luo felt a warmth on her hand that was resting on the table.

She was startled for a moment when she saw Caleb's palm on hers, ''Did something happen?'' she asked when she noticed the worried look on his face.

''No, I called you but you were not responding. Are you fine?" when she nodded, he tapped the back of her palm twice before retracting his hand, ''Where is the energetic Shi Luo who ran after me with a 1.5 inch needle?"

''Who remembers the length of the needle?" Shi Luo was speechless.

''Of course, it gave me nightmares for days.''

''Hahaha…'' Shi Luo threw her head back as she laughed. Now that she thought about it, she was a bit scary that day.

''Interesting,'' Caleb whispered.

''What?" Shi Luo stopped laughing.

He flashed his palm in front of her eyes, ''Do you think my hand is so pretty that one can't take their eyes off it?"

Shi Luo looked at his hand, ''It looks decent but why would anyone stare at it?" she rolled her eyes. Who will bother to stare at a hand?

''Exactly. But the man who is sitting on the table behind us is doing exactly that.''

Shi Luo was about to turn around but he stopped her by grabbing her index finger.

She turned to look at him.

''Please allow me to hold your finger for 15 seconds,'' he said.

Shi Luo was speechless. She found it weird but since he asked so politely, she nodded.

He stroked her finger and Jun Boyan stood up from his chair.

Caleb chuckled before letting go of her finger, ''As expected,'' he whispered as he watched Yu Chen calming Jun Boyan.

''Huh?" Shi Luo was a bit confused.

''The table behind us… I think one of the men sitting there knows you.''

''Oh?'' Shi Luo turned around to look at the table where two men were sitting, dressed in black outfits. She glanced at the unfamiliar man who had curly hair. He was wearing thick rimmed glasses, ''I don't think I know him.''

''Nope, not that one,'' Caleb said, ''The one who is sitting beside him, holding a magazine upside down in his hands.''

Shi Luo turned to look at the man. He was holding a magazine in his hand and all she could see was his black hoodie but he looked familiar somehow.

She stared at him for quite some time before turning around to talk to Caleb, ''I don't think…'' she paused speaking mid-way and quickly turned around to look at that table.

…

Yu Chen sighed in relief, ''Finally, she turned around,'' he glanced at Jun Boyan, ''Now you can put that magazine down.''

Jun Boyan placed his magazine on the table. He removed the cap from his head, and discarded his shades on the table before leaning back on the chair.

''As painful as this is, I think we must leave now. They are suspicious. You don't want the love of your life to give you a 'stalker' tag, do you…?"

He paused, noticing the slight change in Jun Boyan's expressions. He could not be affected by his words that easily, right?

But then, he felt something amiss.

He followed Jun Boyan's gaze and his jaws dropped when he saw that woman standing up and approaching them.

How embarrassing was this. He wanted to dig a hole and bury himself inside it. Wait… why did she look familiar the more he looked at her?

''Boyan, what are you doing here?" Shi Luo looked around the place before looking at Jun Boyan. She wondered if he had some plans. But then, why was he hiding from her earlier?

''Having lunch,'' Jun Boyan answered her with a straight face, ''This is Yu Chen, my friend.''

Yu Chen nodded, ''Hello sis… cough… Miss?''

''Shi Luo,'' she extended her hand towards him, ''Nice to meet you.''

He held her hand before shaking it, ''Nice to meet you too…'' Yu Chen stopped speaking, ''Shi Luo?! Are you Dr. Shi?" That famous top skin specialist?

''Yes.''

Yu Chen felt like today was too much for him. First of all, his frigid friend has fallen for a girl. But his love is unrequited. Then, the girl he loves is on a blind date. Last but not the least, she is none other than Shi Luo.

''I didn't expect to bump into you both here,'' came an excited voice from behind which got their attention.
