Transmigrated as the Ex-Wife of a Heroic Man

Chapter 1326: Chapter 1326: Regret

“Don’t you think this is disrespectful? If I remember correctly, I waited here for four hours that day on the fifth,” she said, pausing, “Just like this, alone, waiting for four hours. How can you still joke about that?”

“I… I wasn’t joking.”

“You weren’t?” Su Qing scoffed, “Well, I hope so!”

After saying that, she picked up her bag and left with a carefree stride.

Yao Hong stood there, stunned, foolishly watching Su Qing walk away, wondering what she had said to upset Sister Su. Suddenly, she was startled by a tap on her shoulder from behind.

“Boss? When did you get here?”

Yu Bin, his expression serious, glanced at the money on the table and frowned, “This is a disaster, it will bring bad luck.” She truly was a clever and stubborn girl. She knew she was being played, yet she had stubbornly come here for ten whole days.

It was hard to dislike her for that persistence.

“Boss, did you know? Sister Su is my big brother’s matchmaking date,” Yao Hong said excitedly, “She might even become my sister-in-law someday.”

Yu Bin gave her a disdainful look, “So your brother stood her up, making her wait here for four full hours? How can you have the nerve to say that? Your brother has no chance, just give it up! If I were in his place, not slapping him would be an understatement.”

After scolding Yao Hong, Yu Bin felt bitter inside too.

The rebuke aimed at Yao Jun might have been as much about himself. He was Su Qing’s first matchmaking date. The day before, as soon as Su Qing walked in, his eyes couldn’t turn away. Would he have acted so disgracefully if Zhou Hengguang hadn’t warned and threatened him?

If he had known the girl he was to meet was so… so special, so appealing to him, would he have agreed to Zhou Hengguang’s proposition?

Only if he was out of his mind.

But any regret was too late now.

He had always been too proud, uninterested in arranged dates, especially when arranged by elders, about whom he couldn’t speak highly. His heart naturally harbored disdain and he had formed a bad impression even before meeting them.

So when Zhou Hengguang approached him, he agreed without a second thought.

Until that day –

He thought he would never forget the moment Su Qing walked in smiling, her smile, her bright eyes, and her graceful, slender figure always replaying uncontrollably in his mind.

So he couldn’t help but want to approach her, initiating conversation with awkward words, and then he faced a soft rejection, and Su Qing drove him away.

At that time, Yu Bin didn’t think much of it.

But as Su Qing continued to come every day, waiting four hours each morning, precisely. It was then he took it to heart and started asking the elder who introduced them, only to find out the elder didn’t really know Su Qing. It was all because Zhou Hengyang had spoken, wanting to find a match for his niece.

The elders, eager for the connection with Zhou Hengyang, registered Yu Bin without a second thought.

Being connected to Zhou Hengyang through marriage was indeed a coveted opportunity, and while the younger generation might rebel, the elders knew what it implied.

But missing the chance to be connected to Zhou Hengyang meant little to Yu Bin, who had never thought to trade his marriage for it. The more he understood, the more he fell. Previously, during the Spring Festival, he would hang out with classmates and childhood friends.

This year, starting from the day before, he rejected his buddies, showing up at his shop every morning, and sometimes even in the afternoon.

All in the hope that Su Qing might come by in the afternoon too.
