Ren Daiyu: "Maybe we should just end tonight now? Mr Chong I think we both can agree that we aren't compatible in the slightest. So there is no need to prolong this torture. I only came because of my father's insistence. I hope both of you enjoy the rest of your evening."

Ren Daiyu and Li Xiuying both stood up to leave.

Ren Daiyu called over a waitress: "We have a reservation for three booked under Li Xiuying, would you mind taking us to our table please?"

Waitress looked at both men at table 17 and looked back at the women before her: "Of course please follow me. I'll need to check which table has been reserved." She had never seen such a scene before, usually if women or men were displeased with their dates they would leave altogether.

Chong Honghui felt his rage boiling inside of him. Ren Daiyu had not only stepped on his pride, she was currently tap dancing away. He could deduce from the conversation with the waitress that this was her plan all along. He downed his drink in one go and watched as Ren Daiyu and Li Xiuying were being sat at another table.

Everyone in the vicinity of table 17 that had witnessed the scene were gossiping amongst themselves.

"Wow, I've never seen such a face slap before. They actually reserved another table for themselves."

"That level of rejection must hurt. I would still be trying to collect the pieces of face from the floor."

"Do you think there's something wrong with those guys?"

Chong Honghui was trying to swallow his anger.

Zhōu Shàoqiáng sighed once more as he watched Li Xiuying saunter away. He would have to find another way to get to know her.

Zhōu Shàoqiáng: "Honghui shall we leave? There's no point staying here any longer."

Chong Honghui didn't respond and continued staring at Ren Daiyu. He became angrier as he heard the whispers around him continue. He had an evil glint in his eyes as he pulled out his phone and started tapping a message.

...

15 minutes later there was an additionally person sat with Li Xiuying and Ren Daiyu.

Li Xiuying: "This is Yao ChangYing, she's a work colleague, friend and future farmer. This is Ren Daiyu a public prosecutor, date partner and friend." She introduced each friend in turn.

Yao ChangYing was shocked: "Xiuying that's the most you've ever said in my presence."

Ren Daiyu: "I was equally shocked earlier when YingYing said more than 5 words!"

All three women started laughing and chatting away. They ordered drinks and food that they actually wanted.

The night progressed smoothly. Ren Daiyu and Yao Changying got along like a house on fire. They were just about to enjoy the deserts before them when a woman and two men stopped by their table.

All three women looked up. It was Chong Honghui, Zhōu Shàoqiáng and an angry young woman.

Young woman sharply said: "You slut! How dare you try and seduce my Honghui?! And just because he rejected you, you tried to humiliate and embarrass him do you have no shame?!"

Ren Daiyu snickered: "Is that what Mr. Chong told you? Listen you can have him. I've never been interested in him nor will I ever be. Could you please leave, this is a respectable establishment not a market where you can scream and shout as you please."

Ren Daiyu looked back at her desert and started eating as if there weren't people giving her murderous looks. She wasn't going to be intimidated by some 18 year old when she hard stared down actually murderers.
