Chapter 231 Cannot Escape the Routine of a Blind Date
Rosiley didn't say a word until she finished her meal.
Even if Payton talked to her during this period, she only replied him with words like "oh" and "yeah" in a
perfunctory manner, and she appeared to be dispirited and cut him dead.
At the beginning, Payton was wondering what was wrong with her. Later, he realized that he seemed to
have said something improper.
His sister-in-law fell silent after he teased, "If only Sachin only eats lipstick."
Was she shy or angry?
He looked at her face over meal, only to find that her expression was very calm. Payton was unable to
tell her emotion.
"Payton," Sachin whispered.
Hearing this, Payton looked up at him in confusion.
"Dad has arranged a blind date for you. At 10 a. m. on the day after tomorrow at the 'Sea of Milky Way'
Restaurant. Remember to be there on time, otherwise..."
Sachin deliberately didn't finish the speech, but Payton could tell from Sachin's meaningful eyes that if
he didn't go, the consequences would be very serious.
But--
"Dating is so boring and is not my thing. I am looking forward to romantic love." Payton rejected the
arranged blind date. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Rosiley, who was silently eating, raised her eyebrows when she heard that Payton was going on a blind
date. Wasn't Sachin's father too corny? He always wanted to have his sons go on a blind date. Sachin
had experienced that and even Payton couldn't escape from this routine.
"Then tell dad yourself. It's useless to tell me. I'm just conveying his message." Sachin shirked the
responsibility.
However, Payton knew that this was what he meant, and the idea was decided on an ad hoc basis. He
mentioned their father as an excuse.
Why?
It was because he had misspoken that his sister-in-law was angry.
As long as it was related to Rosiley, Sachin's mind would be as narrow as the hole on the sewing
needle.
If he didn't go on the blind date this time, he believed that there would be another time, a third time ...
He wouldn't be able to escape from Sachin.
Since that was the case, then, he'd better give him a straight answer by going to the blind date, and he
had ways to discourage Sachin.
Thinking of this, Payton smiled and answered straightforwardly, "Alright, I will be there on time the day
after tomorrow."
Hearing his agreement, Rosiley almost choked on rice. She widened her eyes and looked at him in
disbelief.
Was there something wrong with him? How could such a carefree person agree to go a blind date?
Seeing that she didn't believe it, Payton raised his eyebrows and revealed a meaningful smile. "Rosiley,
I sacrificed myself to satisfy someone else's narrow-mindedness..."
Rosiley frowned, and she did not understand what he meant.
However, Payton did not say anything else. He lowered his head and continued to eat.
Seeing this, she looked at Sachin with puzzlement. Sachin smiled. "Ignore him. We'll go back after
dinner."
Rosiley nodded and didn't think much about what Payton meant.
...
The next day, at Rosiley's insistence, Payton visited Rogelio with her.
This time, they did not go directly to Rogelio's house, but instead walked around the neighborhood.
"Rogelio likes to play chess. Normally, he would go out after breakfast and play chess with other old
people. It would take him an entire morning, so it was self-evident that he was obsessed."
This was the information that Payton obtained from other elders.
"Can you play chess?" Rosiley turned to look at him.
"Yes." Payton blurted out without thinking.
"Are you good at it?"
"Just so so, not as good as Sachin." Ever since he learned how to play chess, Payton hadn't defeated
Sachin. The gap between them was great.
"If I had known earlier, I should have Sachin with me."
"What?" Payton was at a loss and did not know why she said that.
Rosiley smiled and said, "Sachin is better than you in chess, so he should be on par with Rogelio."
Payton was stunned, "Rosiley, you're not going to have me play chess with Rogelio, are you?"
Rosiley smiled but didn't say anything. Silence could explain everything.
"Rosiley, you think too highly of me. You actually want me to play chess with Rogelio? How can you
think of that?" Payton couldn't help but pull a wry face.
Rosiley raised her eyebrows. "This is where you don't understand. In order to get close to another
person, you have to cater to his hobbies. Won't that be good for us?"
"Cater to his hobbies?"
"Yes." Rosiley patted his shoulder and said, "Rogelio likes to play chess, so we will play chess with him
while getting down to business in the meantime."
This was the reason why Rosiley was confident. He was an old man who loved to play chess but could
not find an opponent. If Payton could defeat him, there might be a sliver of hope.
Payton was a smart person. He understood what she meant, but he still had some misgivings.
"Rosiley, I can't guarantee that I will win against him."
"Don't worry. I won't blame you for losing." Rosiley smiled and comforted him.
Rosiley didn't care about his worries at all. After all, she didn't expect him to win against a chess fanatic
who had played chess for so many years.
...
As usual, Rogelio was sitting in the pavilion and played chess with others, unaware of Rosiley and
Payton's arrival.
Rosiley and Payton stood beside him, quietly observing Rogelio's chess maneuvers. Not long after,
Rogelio overwhelmed his opponent and the other party had no choice but yield.
With a "checkmate", Rogelio easily won.
"Rogelio, your chess skills have improved a lot. No one here can defeat you."
"That's right. I don't even dare to play chess with you. I'll lose every time and will be so embarrassed
about that."
"Rogelio, since you're so skillful, why don't you teach my grandson?"
"Rogelio..."
Everyone in the surroundings gabbled. Some of them said with a strong envious tone. They were
obviously jealous of him. However, Rogelio maintained a faint smile and did not reveal the slightest bit
of displeasure.
It could be seen that Rogelio was a cultured man.
Rosiley raised her eyebrows and elbowed Payton. Payton turned around and looked at her, puzzled.
She signaled him to go and play chess with Rogelio with her eyes.
Even though Payton was reluctant, he went forward and sat opposite Rogelio. As soon as he sat down,
the peculiar voices around them died away.
Rogelio looked at the young man in puzzlement. "What do you want?"
Payton grinned and said, "I heard that you are very good at chess, so I came here to challenge you."
As soon as he said that, someone spoke, "Young man, so you came to inquire about Rogelio yesterday
for challenging him?"
Payton looked towards the source of the sound. It was an old lady over sixty. She looked familiar. It
seemed that he had met her yesterday.
He laughed awkwardly and replied, "Yeah, I just want to learn from Rogelio."
Gosh, why was an old lady here watching them playing chess? Would it attract more and more female
elders?
