Chapter 265 First Official Date (I)
"This girl." Fang Bingwen mumbled under his breath as he glanced at his wristwatch to check the time.
He had given Zhang Liling 15 minutes to come out, but she was sure taking her time.
A soft sigh fell off Mr. Fang\'s lips as he raised his head to glance at the hallway next to the flight of stairs.
His brows were slightly creased as he slipped his hands inside the front pockets of his pants.
Earlier today, he wore a black suit to work, but after freshening up some minutes ago, he changed into an ash-coloured suit with a tight black shirt hugging his tone muscles.
His necktie had a mixture of black and white stripes in it. Just one look at his outfit, and you can tell that he meant business.
His black Italian leather shoes, just made his straightened out pants stand out the more. The shine on it, was so clean that its brightness could blind the eyes.
His clean haircut that he casually styled after dressing, made him give away the bad boy kind of vibes that women usually fell for.
Mr. Fang was truly ready for his first official date with his girlfriend Zhang Liling. But where was she?
"That girl had better not come out dressed half-naked after taking all this time." He said before turning his gaze toward another direction.
Five minutes later, Zhang Liling stepped out at last.
Because of time, she was hurrying over in quick steps, almost running on her heels.
Hearing the sounds of the long heels of her shoes marking heavily against the floor, Mr. Fang turned his gaze to that direction, and was in time to meet her frantic entrance.
As soon as she stepped out of the hallway, Zhang Liling met Mr. Fang\'s scrutinizing gaze and first apologized to him.
Did she see his outfit and how handsome he looked? Yes, she saw him, but she didn\'t take note of anything.
She was already nervous after being aware of how much time she had kept him waiting, so the first thing on her mind was to apologize to him.
Walking over in frantic steps as she clutched her diamond studded black purse in her right hand, while also holding unto the front part of her red balloon dress, her heart raced rapidly in her chest.
The back part of her dress trailed behind her, as her black stilletos matched steadily on the tiles.
On her lips stood a bright red lipstick that was carefully applied on her lips liner.
The minimal makeup was well done, as it showed what she usually looked like, and was just a key in highlighting some features of her face.
If she had applied a heavy makeup, she was sure to get uncomfortable, besides, there was no time left.
She had already changed out of the original clothes she had picked earlier.
This was her first date with Mr. Fang, so she had to put some effort to it, even though it cost her additional time, but stepping out and seeing him dressed all up, she was happy and relieved for the last minute changes she made.
"Mr. Fang, I\'m so sorry." She apologized as soon as she came over to his side. She looked a little breathless, and if not for the the fully air-conditioned room she just stepped out of, there was no way beads of sweat wouldn\'t have appeared on her forehead.
As his eyes darted around her body from her face till the end of the train of the dress she was putting, he asked, "Why did you run over? What if you stepped on your dress and fell?"
"I am accustomed to running on heels. But I was a bit more careful today because of my dress." Zhang Liling replied with a smile.
She was still panting for breath for having rushed over.
Talking about her dress, Fang Bingwen\'s eyes went to her chest area. Because her dress had a spaghetti hand, the chest area was made in such a way that a little cleavage would show.
"Turn your back." He said in a demanding tone as he tore his sight off her neck.
\'Is he angry with my dress?\' Zhang Liling thought to herself as she retracted her smile and did as he instructed.
Immediately she turned her back to him, his eyes went to the exposed part of her back.
What could Fang Bingwen do at this point? She was showing off a little cleavage, her arms and entire neck, and now her back.
Sighing, he took her hand before leading them toward the entrance.
At least she wasn\'t showing off her thighs. Also, there was no need to get angry since she wasn\'t half-naked.
Maybe he was just a little bit conservative of what parts of the body his woman showed off in public.
When Zhang Liling waited for a while and did not hear him rebuking her, the corners of her lips stretched as 2 line streaks appeared at the corner of her eyes.
Then as he took her hand, she clasped her fingers tightly around the back of his hand, with a thumping heart full of bliss.
Outside, the chaffeur opened the car door for them.
Still holding hands, Mr. Fang helped her into the car first, before going over to the other side.
Zhang Liling\'s eyes immediately glued to him as soon as he sat on the empty space beside her.
"Mr. Fang, you look very handsome today." She said, finally taking not of his style and looks.
"Thank you." He replied calmly as his eyes briefly glanced at her dress one more time.
"Your dress is beautiful." He commented before throwing his face away, despite knowing how proud that little woman would be with his appreciation.
Like he guessed, Zhang Liling\'s eyes widened in their sockets as a glint flashed across her eyes.
Immediately, she clutched his arm. "Really? You like my dress?" She asked, as if she was begging to be reassured that she didn\'t hear wrongly.
Not wanting her to keep bugging him, Mr. Fang answered, "I like it, is it weird?"
"No it\'s not." Zhang Liling hurriedly said. She wouldn\'t be the one to point out to him about his unexpected change in taste.
Well, she liked this current one, and would prefer that he doesn\'t go back to his old ways.
"I\'m just happy that you appreciated my looks." She continued.
If she wasn\'t scared of staining his clothes with her makeup, she would have loved to relax the side of her face on his shoulder.
How sweet it would be to stay in his arms.
