I quickly explained, "It's not that I don't believe you, it's just..."
"Just what?"
"Just..." I hesitated, unsure of how to express myself.
"Wan Hui, you don't believe in yourself," Liang Lebang sighed. "You think I have good conditions, I'm handsome, and I have many admirers, so you believe I can't be sincere, right?"
"I..." His words hit home, and I was suddenly at a loss for words.
He reached out and ruffled my hair, speaking affectionately, "Silly girl, if I didn't like you, why would I be with you?"
"Do you really like me?"
"Yes." He nodded seriously. "The first time I saw you, I thought you were very charming and dazzling. The second time in the dance studio, I found you very interesting. The third time at the bar, seeing you drunk, I thought you were especially cute."
As I listened to him share his impressions of me, a sweet feeling rose in my heart.
It turned out that he had noticed me long before, just like I had noticed him.
"Liang Lebang, I have a question to ask you."
"Yes?"
"Have you really been a pole dancer?"
He nodded slightly. "Yes, but that was a long time ago. I won't do it again."
"Then can you promise me not to do that anymore in the future?"
"Sure." He agreed without hesitation.
I decided to come clean to my brother and asked about the situation at Liang Lebang's home, but he avoided the main point and didn't say much.
I was afraid my brother would object, so I fabricated a good family background for Liang Lebang.
With a heart full of determination, I called my brother.
"Hey, I'm bringing someone home to meet you this Saturday."
"Okay, just remember to dress nicely."
"Bro, I'm bringing my boyfriend home, not going on a blind date."
"......" My brother paused for a moment, then suddenly shouted excitedly, "What did you say? You have a boyfriend? Who is he? Where is he from? How old is he?"
"Uh..." I glanced at Liang Lebang beside me and whispered, "I'll tell you more when I get back."
"Alright, Saturday night at seven, I'll be waiting for you both at home."
After hanging up, I let out a sigh of relief.
Liang Lebang held my hand and smiled, "Don't be nervous; your brother won't eat me."
"I don't know if my brother will eat you, but I feel like I'm about to be devoured by you." I shot him a glare.
He smirked and leaned closer to me: "Then I'll just eat you up so your brother can't find you."
"......"
Saturday.
I was extremely nervous the entire way, while Liang Lebang appeared completely calm.
I turned to him and asked, "Aren't you nervous at all?"
"It's not the first time meeting the parents," he replied with a faint smile.
"..." I was left speechless.
When we arrived at my brother's house, as soon as I walked in, I saw a familiar person sitting on the sofa.
A short-haired beauty?
What is she doing here?
"Lebang, you finally made it," the short-haired beauty said with a smile as she walked over and linked her arm with Liang Lebang's.
I was stunned.
What’s going on?
I turned to look at my brother, who also had a big smile on his face.
This...
"Do you two know each other?" I asked tentatively.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you," my brother said with a grin. "Lebang is Ali's younger brother."
"Younger brother?" I widened my eyes, glancing between the short-haired beauty and Liang Lebang.
They look nothing alike!
"Yeah." The short-haired beauty smiled and said, "I wanted to tell you earlier, but you never gave me the chance."
"…"
If Liang Lebang is really the short-haired beauty's brother, then I’m in big trouble for how I treated him before.
"What's wrong?" Liang Lebang asked with concern when he saw my expression.
"Nothing…" I shook my head and quietly stepped aside.
"Le Bang, I know about you and Wan Hui," his brother said with a smile. "Don't worry, I won't force Wan Hui to go on blind dates anymore."
"That's great to hear." Liang Lebang smiled, "Previously, Wan Hui complained a lot to me about the blind dates."
"Hahaha, she won't have to complain anymore," his brother laughed heartily.
"By the way, I heard from Wan Hui that you work at a dance studio?" his brother suddenly asked.
"Yes." Liang Lebang nodded. "That's my dance studio. Besides this, I have other businesses as well."
"…" I was completely stunned.
He owns the dance studio?
Then why didn’t he admit to being a dance teacher when I saw him at the studio door?
"So you're the boss," his brother realized. "I was wondering how you could do pole dancing."
Hearing the words "pole dancing," I suddenly reacted.
"Wait!" I looked up at Liang Lebang. "Aren't you the one who dances at the bar?"
"No, I didn't." Liang Lebang looked at me innocently. "That day, I was just filling in for the teacher who was absent, so I took his class."
"..." So, did I misunderstand him?
"So that's why you gave me five thousand yuan," Liang Lebang said, looking at me with a suddenly enlightened expression.
"..." My face turned red instantly.
I gritted my teeth and said, "Why did you mislead me?"
"When did I mislead you?" He looked confused.
"You said you were... doing that."
"You said it yourself; I never said that."
"..." I found myself speechless.
"Wan Hui." He suddenly took my hand and looked at me gently. "Since you've already taken care of me, you have to be responsible for me for a lifetime."
