Chapter 8 A blind date that suits each other's needs

The hottest season in Nandu has arrived. The temperature at home is constant all year round. Shen Mingxu rarely shows up in public and always wears long sleeves and long pants.

"Yunxi, you have almost learned how to drive. Don't just practice with Brother Zhou's car. You have to drive out by yourself." Before leaving the house that day, Shen Mingxu officially gave Yunxi new instructions, "This is a good art institution. I have arranged the best dance teacher for you. You can set the time by yourself. You go to learn dancing from her. Start today."

He told her to drive out by herself, and Yunxi didn't think it was strange. When the gentle and fair-skinned man said something overbearing and unreasonable, Yunxi really didn't expect it, "Today? Dance? What kind of dance?"

Shen Mingxu stood up with the cane, and then slowly turned to look at her sideways. Although he was not impatient, he obviously didn't want to say anything more, "The teacher knows, it has been arranged, remember, you must learn it well."

"Oh..." Seeing him dragging his legs and feet step by step into the elevator, Yunxi looked up at the scorching sun outside the window again, full of helplessness.

There was a driver assistant accompanying him in and out. As the executive director of several companies, Shen Mingxu's figure walking with a cane was already known to almost all the employees of the Shen family. The young man had difficulty walking but was tall and handsome, with cold and prominent eyebrows and a delicate face like an artistic sculpture, which easily captured a large number of fans. Fortunately, Shen Mingxu was not talkative and never smiled, and there was no beautiful female secretary around him, otherwise, Mrs. Shen really wouldn't have to worry about his marriage.

The hot weather didn't affect Yunxi, so she drove directly into the basement of the dance school, and the beautiful teacher actually came downstairs to pick her up in person. Soon, Yunxi knew that Shen Mingxu wanted her to learn ballroom dancing, which was a relatively simple and easy dance. "Mr. Shen wants to dance with you. Simply put, my task is to help you get on the dance floor with him in a short time and dance happily." The teacher explained patiently with a flattering smile on her face.

"Okay, I brought sneakers..." She didn't have professional dance clothes, so it was a bit embarrassing to say it.

"It's okay. I have prepared all the items for you. Mr. Shen gave me your height and weight. When I saw you in person today, you were so beautiful, even more beautiful than I imagined, like a star." The teacher took Yunxi's hand to see the clothes and shoes prepared for her. Although Yunxi was pure and plain, without brand-name bags and jewelry, and dressed very simply, she drove Shen Mingxu's car. With the blessing of the million-dollar luxury car, Yunxi not only had an appearance that could look down on the crowd, but also had the noble status of Mr. Shen's sweetheart.

The beautiful teacher was very tall. After guiding Yunxi's girl's steps, she also turned into a male dance partner and led Yunxi to practice dancing. Teaching alone achieved twice the result with half the effort.

Little boys and girls from Shen Mingxu's background, who were rich and idle in their teens and ignorant in their youth, had basically learned some social etiquette and social dance before they officially became adults. Yunxi did not have such a family environment. Seven years ago, she suffered a car accident and lost her memory. Now she is learning dance. Fortunately, the teacher is professional and skillful. The two of them practiced for a week, and Yunxi made rapid progress.

The dance teacher asked someone to record a video of her and Yunxi dancing, and sent it to Shen Mingxu to report. "Sir, Miss Yunxi seems to have learned dance. She is very smart. She learns very quickly and dances very well."

Knowing that Yunxi was a student of an art school, Shen Mingxu certainly knew that Yunxi could dance well, but she had to find back her lost memories piece by piece and put them together to be a complete Yunxi. Now this teacher is just helping to awaken her muscle memory.

Since she started learning dance, Shen Mingxu occasionally saw Yunxi stretching her legs in the first floor hall of her home, relaxing and exercising. Simple activities exercise her body flexibility. Although he didn't say it, he was happy in his heart.

Turning around, Shen Mingxu changed into a black suit, a black cane and thin black-framed glasses, and went out in a chilly outfit.

Yunxi didn't dare to ask him because she thought he was going to attend a funeral. In fact, the young master had made an appointment with someone at a time and a restaurant, and planned to go on a blind date.

The blind date was a win-win situation. The girl was willing to try dating Shen Mingxu because of the Shen family's financial resources and Shen Mingxu's handsome appearance, but Shen Mingxu knew in his heart that how could outsiders accept his body?

In the end, although he prepared a pure black and cool outfit, Shen Mingxu still broke the blind date dinner. After receiving the complaint from the girl's parents, the sister-in-law felt very sorry, but it was not easy to complain to Shen Mingxu directly. She had to secretly report the failure of the blind date to Mrs. Shen, and angrily decided not to help the young master find a partner again.

"Xiaoxu, what's wrong with you? You agreed to go with the girl, but you don't go. This is very ungraceful. Even if you can't be a couple, you can go to make friends. There will be many opportunities to meet in the future." After hearing the news, Mrs. Shen called her son directly. Of course, the lady's attitude on the phone was still very gentle and patient.

"Mom, if I go, I won't be able to give people a satisfactory answer, and I'll be laughed at for nothing. I thought about it and decided not to go." Shen Mingxu was sitting alone in the office with a full schedule. He was holding his phone and telling his mother what was in his heart. He was not only not interested and didn't like her, but he hated those so-called daughters of equal status who looked for a partner based on conditions.

Mrs. Shen knew her son well. She asked carefully but firmly, "Xiaoxu, do you have a girlfriend?"

"Yes." Shen Mingxu's low but quick voice came from the receiver.

He didn't deny it! Mrs. Shen immediately forgot about the blind date and asked her son kindly, "That's great. When will you bring her back to show me? I will definitely help you." No matter who the girl was, she was not in a hurry to deny her. After all, she was the one her son liked. Mrs. Shen thought of her son's difficult figure limping when he walked, and she was always distressed and sad.

On Friday night, after finishing work and rejecting his brother's invitation to go out for dinner, Shen Mingxu ate a simple meal, sat in a chair and thought for a while, then stood up with the help of the table.

After a busy day, his right leg joints were somewhat sluggish and numb, but not painful; his left leg was already stiff and had no feeling. With the support of a cane, he tried to twist his hips to move his inflexible left leg and walked into the lounge.

Throwing himself on the soft little bed, Shen Mingxu sat crookedly, took off his suit pants with one hand, picked up his left leg, and carefully untied the shoelaces wrapped around his ankle before he could take off his shoes. Holding his left leg with both hands, he roughly tore open the sturdy Velcro, and the part that fixed the bracket on the calf was untied, and the thin and deformed calf was completely exposed.

Without the support of the bracket, the calf immediately twisted and softened in Shen Mingxu's big hand. He disliked his injured leg, but he also understood that if this leg was gone, he would probably not even have the chance to dislike it.

Mrs. Shen was not Shen Zhongheng's original wife. She met Shen Zhongheng and became his canary after graduating from the Film Academy before she had time to make a debut in a movie.

I followed my mother's surname Wang when I was young, and changed it back to Shen after I went to school. Later, my mother finally married my father. Shen Mingxu was still studying in the UK. Not long after graduating from college and returning to China, he was suddenly in a car accident and became disabled.

Physically disabled and his lover died tragically, Shen Mingxu, who was only 22 years old at that time, had no desire to live every day when he opened his eyes in the British hospital. He could not see the future.

The treatment was also painful. He relied on missing Yunxi to go through surgery after surgery, knee replacement, broken bone regeneration, skin grafting, implantation of steel nails, internal and external fixation. Every time Shen Mingxu thought about giving up, it was his mother who accompanied him and encouraged him gently and patiently, and he also understood that he had to persevere.

The physical and psychological treatment lasted for seven years before he really walked out of the car accident and was able to walk into public places step by step with a cane and live a normal life.

It was Shen Zhongheng's birthday at the weekend. Shen Mingxu had already customized a birthday gift from the UK for his father, but he knew in his heart that having the best partner by his side was the best way for him to improve his energy and status in the Shen family and shut up those gossiping women.

In the lounge, Shen Mingxu gave his left leg a simple relaxing massage, then he tidied his clothes and took the special elevator. Instead of going directly to the underground parking lot, he went straight to the shopping mall on the first floor of the building.

He walked straight in his daily posture. Although he used a cane to support his body and drive his left leg forward, he still had a calm and noble demeanor. However, in the shopping mall, due to the large and empty area of ​​the store, it was all up to Shen Mingxu to drive his disabled left leg step by step to walk. After walking a short distance, he already felt that his waist and hips, which had been replacing his left leg, began to swell and become unbearable, and his body sounded a fatigue alarm

. It was really a bit of a stretch for him to go to each store one by one. Shen Mingxu looked around and found a luxury store that he thought was pretty good, so he tried to move his legs and headed straight for the target.

The experienced salesperson knew that Shen Mingxu was a high-quality customer before he even entered the door. The beautiful lady saluted Shen Mingxu slightly, greeted him politely and asked about his needs.

"The dress is suitable for girls in their twenties. It should be light-colored, thin but not too revealing. Please help me choose a pair of nude high heels." This is Shen Mingxu's basic need.

"Miss, what is your height, weight, and shoe size?" The shopping guide directly asked the key questions and led Shen Mingxu to the VIP seat and asked him to sit on the sofa.

"Very thin," Shen Mingxu walked to the sofa with a cane, twisted his waist slightly, bent down and supported the armrest of the sofa with his right hand, sat on the VIP sofa, raised his hands and put his ten fingers together to form a circle, comparing Shao Yunxi's waist, "165 cm tall, size 36 and a half." Of course he knew her weight, but he deliberately didn't tell others.

The shopping guide got the key information and took action immediately. She asked several colleagues for help and soon brought out seven or eight long skirts for Shen Mingxu to choose from. She also picked a few pairs of shoes and brought them over together.

"If you are not satisfied with the skirt, we actually have special custom-made ones, but we need to measure the lady and book in advance. I wonder when your birthday or important party is?" The shopping guide half-knelt beside Shen Mingxu to show him a few selected skirts, while tentatively selling more expensive products.

"Wear it tomorrow, it's too late to customize it." Shen Mingxu interrupted the sales pitch in a deep voice and selected two skirts.

"This is a classic style, this is the latest style, ten inches, seven inches, how high do you think you need?" Holding the high heels in both hands, the shopping guide showed Shen Mingxu several models.

"These two pairs, seven inches high is good." After choosing the high heels, Shen Mingxu was absent-minded for a few seconds. He thought of Yunxi's snow-white and slender ankles. Shen Mingxu knew that she would look good in anything. Ten inches was too high, and seven inches was more suitable for daily wear.

After paying, while Shen Mingxu was waiting for Zhou Heng to pick him up, he somehow transferred 100,000 yuan to Yunxi.

When Shen Mingxu returned home, Yunxi saw the driver Zhou Heng entering the house with him. When she saw the four bags in Zhou Heng's hand, she realized that Shen Mingxu was leaning on a cane in his left hand, so he only had one right hand free, and he couldn't carry all these bags. Zhou Heng was helping him send the things home.

In fact, Zhou Heng didn't even enter the door. He put the bags down at the entrance and turned to leave.

"I put the things in your cloakroom? Do you need my help to open it?" Yunxi looked at Shen Mingxu who was sitting at the door taking off his shoes, waiting for his instructions.

"Take it to your room, it's for you." It was more troublesome for him to take off his shoes, especially for his left foot, which was more complicated to put on and put on slippers.

Yunxi was stunned for a moment at his words, and seeing his businesslike expression, she did as he said without asking any more questions. But after putting the things away, Yunxi chased after Shen Mingxu into his room and asked him, "Shen Mingxu, isn't the money you gave me for household use? Why did you make that note?" Shen Mingxu

had just taken off his coat and shirt when he grabbed his cane, dragged his left leg out, and replied to her with his hand on the door frame, "Yes, it's pocket money for you, not for household use, and you are not allowed to use it to pay off debts."

Who is so overbearing when giving money?

Yunxi was stunned again, and had to turn around and leave. Shen Mingxu's clear voice came from behind her again, "Try on the clothes and shoes. If they don't fit, drive to my company downstairs to exchange them for what you need to wear tomorrow."
