Xu Wan met a man from her industry at a matchmaking party. Two days later, they got their marriage certificate.
She thought she had married an unremarkable corporate legal counsel.
Afte...
Xu Wan hadn't expected Ji Tong to be so proactive.
From the moment she thought of renting a man to pretend to be her boyfriend to the moment she posted the job ad, it took less than ten minutes.
Ji Tong posted this using a secondary account.
Xu Wan searched for her alternate account and saw that Weibo post.
On Weibo, Ji Tong briefly stated her requirements, and she went into quite detail about the conditions for this fake boyfriend: he must be male, over 25 years old, unmarried and single, and over 1.8 meters tall with a standard build and not overweight.
Price negotiable.
Xu Wan frowned as she looked at the Weibo post. "If they have the means, their fees must be quite high, right?"
“I can afford it even if it’s not cheap. A meeting would cost at most a thousand or two thousand. Do you really want ten or twenty thousand?” Ji Tong thought for a moment. “If this person is tall and handsome, then I can afford ten or twenty thousand.”
Xu Wan joked, "Even if this person is tall and handsome, you should still hold on. Men with unknown backgrounds are unreliable. Treat them as a transaction, but don't take them seriously."
Ji Tong has never been in a relationship much in his life.
Xu Wan was really afraid that she would get carried away by love and ruin her own life.
"You're still talking about me?" Ji Tong raised her arm and put it around Xu Wan. "Didn't you get married to our CEO Jiang after just one meeting? Maybe that's how fate works."
When talking about what happened back then, Xu Wan was still a little embarrassed. "The party I went to was an industry matchmaking event. Everyone there was a colleague, and they were all people from the legal departments of big law firms or big companies. There were generally no unreliable people there."
"I didn't expect our CEO Jiang to be so ordinary! But you two are still destined to be together." Ji Tong said with envy, "When will I have such a destiny? If not, I don't think it's a big deal not to get married."
As she spoke, she casually picked up her phone and glanced at the message she had just sent.
After just one glance, Ji Tong sat up abruptly. "Wow, so many replies!"
Xu Wan also picked up her phone and glanced at it.
She had thought that Ji Tong's request on Weibo was a bit strange and that few people would reply, but to her surprise, there were more than a dozen replies in such a short time.
Besides a few onlookers, there were two or three genuine applicants.
Ji Tong said, "I've sent you a few more private messages. You're more knowledgeable than me, so please help me check them out."
Ji Tong has been working in Tianwei's legal department for the past few years. The work is not busy and the tasks are relatively simple, so it's like she's retiring early.
Xu Wan searched and clicked on each one.
The people who replied to Ji Tong all love posting photos on their personal Weibo accounts.
They fire nine shots in a row all the time.
These photos are not just full-body shots showing the face; many were taken in the gym.
Many of them showed off their abs.
Xu Wan looked around and felt that every single one of them seemed to offer sexual services.
Before she could speak, Ji Tong had already handed her a photo: "How about this one? He's a sports student, a graduate student. Although he's only 24, he said he really hopes to get this opportunity to earn some living expenses."
Xu Wan recognized the person in the photo at a glance.
Of the people Ji Tong just sent me, this person loves to post photos the most.
The abs are also the most visible.
He doesn't look like a decent person at all.
"Um... are you sure he's a college student? Why don't you ask him to send us his student ID? And then you can mention that you're a lawyer."
Xu Wan actually wanted to persuade Ji Tong to give up this idea.
However, the most urgent task is to get her to reject this male sports student.
"Alright, it's good to ask more questions."
Following Xu Wan's instructions, Ji Tong asked for the other party's student ID.
The boy opposite quickly sent over his student ID. The photo was taken with the student ID right next to his face, and the background was a student dormitory, the most ordinary four-person dormitory.
"Being so handsome and still living in a dormitory shows that he doesn't intend to take shortcuts."
Ji Tong's face was full of satisfaction with this male college student.
Xu Wan invited Ji Tong to dinner and spent the entire meal trying to persuade her not to be fooled by her appearance.
Ji Tong readily agreed.
As a result, Xu Wan received a message from Ji Tong at around 11 p.m. that night.
Ji Tong: [Wanwan, Xiaolu and I arranged to meet at a restaurant near the North City Sports Institute on Tuesday evening. Do you have time? Could you come with me?]
Xu Wan quickly agreed.
In this situation, she has to go even if she doesn't have time.
After confirming the time and place with Ji Tong, Xu Wan hesitated for a moment before sending a text message to Gong Yanli.
