On the terrace, Tian Jing's arrival was like a bright white moon descending into a dark lake, radiating light and attracting all eyes.

"Sorry to keep you waiting! I had a hard time finding a parking spot," Tian Jing said with a sweet smile as she sat down on the camping chair opposite him, her legs together and tilted to one side.

She looked more flamboyant and outgoing than at the company. With a gorgeous little dress, a beautiful shawl, and sparkling necklace and earrings, she exuded a kind of elegant luxury. Especially in the slightly dim environment, facing her directly, her astonishing charm was even more palpable.

"It’s indeed hard to park around here," Tang Song said, licking his lips before sincerely complimenting her, "I have to say, you look really beautiful today. This dress suits you very well." Follow current novels on novel✶fire.net

"I just bought it, and I really like it," Tian Jing said, swaying her snow-white body slightly. Then she stared at Tang Song curiously, "It’s only been a few days, but you look even more handsome."

Tang Song instinctively touched his face and smiled, "Having dinner with a beauty like you is a bit stressful, so I put on some light makeup."

"Thanks for the compliment! Hearing you say that makes me happy and feel valued," Tian Jing said with a wink, lightly flicking her silky hair off her shoulder.

Tang Song's heart skipped a beat. Her fresh and sweet face, slender and graceful arms, delicate collarbone, full chest, and a waist that could be held with one hand—no wonder she was called the natural JK physique by her former colleagues. Holding such a figure in his arms would surely be very comfortable.

After a brief chat, Tang Song handed her the menu and a pen, "Take a look and see what you want to eat."

Tian Jing's eyes twinkled as she said sweetly, "I just did my nails, so why don't I tell you, and you check them off?"

"Sure."

As soon as he agreed, Tian Jing stood up and walked over to his side. The light fruit-scented perfume wafted into his nose. Tang Song took a deep breath and, holding the pen, said, "The beef belly here is pretty good. Can you eat it?"

"I can, and this big prawn, too. Oh, let's also have the beef ribeye..." Tian Jing said casually, her eyes accurately targeting his hand. The curves and proportions were just right, white and slender, with distinct joints—still perfect like they were drawn. Watching his fingers move up and down, Tian Jing couldn't help but squeeze her legs together, her face turning red.

"Little Jing, isn't this too much?" Tang Song said, looking at the densely checked boxes, feeling overwhelmed. This wasn’t ordering; it was naming dishes.

Tian Jing stuck out her pink tongue and whispered, "Then I'll take a few off. No baked corn, no honey butter bread..."

They spent several minutes adjusting the order until it was finally set. Tian Jing happily returned to her seat and was about to take out the gift she had bought when she saw Tang Song place a green gift bag in front of her.

"A little gift for you. See if you like it."

Tian Jing was slightly surprised—what a coincidence! She graciously accepted the gift box with a smile, "Thank you! I didn’t expect a surprise. How thoughtful of you."

She took out the gift box and unwrapped it to reveal a beautiful pair of Gucci sunglasses. They were light, with the double G Gucci logo on the temples, simple yet stylish and full of personality. Tian Jing put the sunglasses on, took a few selfies with her phone, and said with satisfaction, "I really like them! And I have a small gift for you too!"

As she spoke, she pulled a black box from her bag and handed it over with both hands.

Tang Song, taken aback, accepted the box, truly not expecting a gift, especially such an expensive one. This was not what the netizens had described!

The square and textured box had a familiar logo and the word "LONGINES." It took him a moment to recall the brand.

Tian Jing's eyes sparkled, urging him, "Open it."

Tang Song gently opened the lid to reveal a simple, elegant silver watch. The matte white dial paired with polished silver hands and an all-steel body exuded excellent quality. Seeing the watch, Tang Song remembered the logo—Longines. His landlord and college classmate Lu Ziming had one and often posted it on his moments. As a Swiss luxury watch, it generally sold for over ten thousand yuan.

"This..."

Tang Song was stunned by the unexpectedly valuable gift. Tian Jing, this rich white beauty, surely gave him a genuine article. The key was that they weren’t very familiar yet, having been just ordinary colleagues. He was going all out for the system task "First Date Experience." What could her intentions be? Could it be that she had a thing for him?

Tang Song, experiencing this treatment for the first time, felt his heart race.

"Isn't it beautiful? It's a Longines fashion series. I have one, too," Tian Jing said playfully, blinking at him.

Tang Song licked his dry lips and whispered, "Little Jing, isn't this a bit too expensive?"

"It's not a big deal for me. Besides, you gave me Gucci sunglasses. We’re exchanging gifts," Tian Jing said, standing up and sitting beside him, eagerly adding, "This has a triple-fold clasp. Let me help you put it on."

"Okay," Tang Song obediently placed his left hand on the table. Though he didn’t understand the reason, this wasn’t a bad thing.

Tian Jing grasped his fingers and pulled his hand toward her. Her soft, snowy fingertips gently stroked his palm, pretending to be surprised, "Hey! Song, your palm lines are so unique! They look just like the ones described in a book. I have to take a closer look."

Then, as if discovering a big secret, she intertwined their fingers, held his palm in front of her, and examined it with sparkling eyes. Tang Song's body trembled. Besides his first love, this was his first time holding hands with a girl. Her smooth, tender skin felt like the gentle warmth of early spring, soft but not hot.

Taking a deep breath, Tang Song’s fingers started to move, too. Since she initiated it, this shouldn’t count as taking advantage.

...

He Liting stared blankly in Tang Song's direction, her mind empty. Initially relieved that his date looked far inferior to Qianqian, she was stunned to see a big boss appear out of nowhere. This girl was not only beautiful but also wore expensive clothes and accessories.

A quick photo search confirmed that the casually placed bag was a Chanel 22bag worth over fifty thousand yuan. The dress was a new Burberry piece worn by several female celebrities. It was extremely popular online and priced at over thirty thousand yuan. The shawl's value couldn’t be found, but its quality suggested it wasn't cheap either. The matching necklace, earrings, and hair accessories added up to a total worth of at least a hundred thousand yuan.

This girl, clearly well-protected, elegant, fashionable, and pure, was the ideal type for any normal guy. Compared to her, Qianqian, an unemployed beautician without a college degree, had no chance. The meeting would only end with her being utterly defeated.

Seeing them exchange gifts, especially the watch given by the rich beauty, He Liting was dazed. The Citizen watch that Qianqian had gritted her teeth to buy was probably going to be returned.
