Ji Yao: ...

Seeing that the other party remained silent for a long time, he asked in confusion, "Is there something you need?"

"Yes, I am." Ji Yao's voice hesitated slightly. "Are you free this afternoon?"

Lin Qiong answered without hesitation, "Yes."

He is now a nobody, with no car, no house, and no job, but he lives in a big villa and has nothing to do all day except cook and water the flowers.

"That's great!" Ji Yao said excitedly. "I'd like to trouble you to come with me to do something today."

Lin Qiong looked at the bright sunshine outside and asked, "What's the matter?"

Ji Yao hesitated for a moment before saying, "Blind date."

"?" Lin Qiong asked in confusion, "You're not..."

Ji Yao sighed deeply, "My family is pressuring me to get married. My mother found out I wasn't going to get married and is now forcing me to go on blind dates."

Lin Qiong said "Oh, oh," and then asked, "You gave in?"

Ji Yao: "...Hmm."

"If you find someone you like, you should start dating them and see how it goes."

Lin Qiong carried the trash in her hand and walked out, saying, "Time."

Ji Yao hurriedly said, "Two o'clock in the afternoon, I'll send you the location in a bit."

Lin Qiong gave a slight "OK".

The phone call ended, and the cuckoo bird flapped its wings, carrying the trash with it as it flew out of the house.

Lin Qiong took a deep breath of the summer morning air.

ah!

The taste of freedom.

Then, around the next corner, I saw the old man dressed in designer clothes standing next to the trash can.

The old man looked at the trash can in front of him with a resentful expression.

The area around the trash can was very messy, with foam and plastic residue scattered all over the ground, clearly indicating that it had been disturbed long ago.

The old man seemed to have noticed something and suddenly turned his head.

Lin Qiong, caught off guard by their eye contact: !!

He quickly waved his hand, "I didn't translate it."

He then shook the trash bag in his hand, indicating to the other person that he was there to take out the trash.

After a nerve-wracking experience dumping the trash, Lin Qiong breathed a slight sigh of relief when she got home.

After finishing lunch, Lin Qiong leaned on the sofa and said to Fu Xingyun, who was not far away, "I need to go out for a while."

Fu Xingyun glanced at him, her voice cold, "You don't need to tell me whether you're going out or not."

Lin Qiong touched her white belly and murmured "oh oh".

Fu Xingyun: "Where to?"

"..."

Looking at the person in front of her who seemed to be having some inner conflict, Lin Qiong said directly, "Accompany Ji Yao to the blind date."

Fu Xingyun looked at him with a slightly intriguing gaze, "When did you two become so close?"

Lin Qiong counted the days, then, too lazy to think, simply said, "From the day we got married until now."

Whoosh~

The summer breeze rustled across the lush green lawn.

Fu Xingyun glanced out the French windows and said, "I'm not interested in what you're going to do."

Lin Qiong: "..."

Keep pretending.

The two had just finished lunch, and Lin Qiong was about to chat with someone when the other person turned around and got into the elevator.

Lin Qiong shrugged and continued to lounge on the sofa, returning to her room on the third floor just before one o'clock.

With a whoosh, Lin Qiong opened the wardrobe and looked at the dazzling array of clothes inside, unsure of which one to wear to the blind date.

But since you're there to support someone, you can't be too plain.

But if you dress too extravagantly, people might mistake you for a lunatic.

Finally, Lin Qiong selected three outfits from the wardrobe and began to struggle with her decision.

In her previous life, Lin Qiong was a stage actress, and because of her profession, she also had great taste in clothing.

Actually, you could wear any of these three outfits, but it's impossible to choose just one.

There was a light knock on the door. Fu Xingyun glanced at it and asked, "What is it?"

Lin Qiong opened the door and poked her head out through the gap. "I have something I'd like to ask you for a favor?"

The young man's eyes were full of expectation, but he swallowed back the words of refusal that were on the tip of his tongue. "What is it?"

Lin Qiong came out from behind the door, holding three sets of clothes in her hands. "Which one do you think I should wear?"

Fu Xingyun: ...

"Lin Qiong".

Lin Qiong blinked. "What's wrong?"

Fu Xingyun took a deep breath. "It was Ji Yao who went on the blind date, not you."

Lin Qiong: "I know."

Fu Xingyun paused for a moment, then said, "None of these three sets are quite suitable."

Lin Qiong asked in a puzzled voice, "Why?"

Fu Xingyun glanced at the three sets of clothes again, "Too complicated."

He then added, "You're fine wearing what you're wearing now."

Lin Qiong looked down at the large T-shirt she was wearing.

"..."

He hesitated, thinking, "Wouldn't this be too disrespectful?"

"Won't."

Lin Qiong looked up.

The next moment, a deep voice from the man was heard saying, "If you go like this, Ji Yao will only think that you are very familiar with her."

"real?"

"real."

Lin Qiong picked up the clothes, "Then I'll wear this."

After everything was ready, Lin Qiong came downstairs, only to find Fu Xingyun sitting in the living room watching the news.

Lin Qiong wondered when they came down, but she didn't ask.

Instead, she put on her shoes in the entryway, then poked her head out and said, "I'm going out."

Fu Xingyun glanced at him but said nothing.

Lin Qiong, used to it, patted her bottom, turned around, and left.

The door with the combination lock made a ticking sound when it was closed.

He styled his hair.

...

Lin Qiong took a taxi to the location Ji Yao had sent her on WeChat; it was a coffee shop located in the city center.

However, the industry's saying that coffee shops don't make a profit seems like some kind of curse, and even in the city center, there are hardly any customers at this time.

Lin Qiong stepped inside, and the bell hanging above the door rang crisply as the door opened and closed.

"Welcome!" A waiter approached. "Are you alone, sir?"

Lin Qiong waved her hand. "No, I'm looking for someone."

As she spoke, she looked up and saw Ji Yao sitting by the window.

Ji Yao's location was good, with green plants next to the window.

At the same time he saw the other person, Ji Yao also saw him, and then stretched out his arm and bowed to him, saying, "Lin Qiong, this way."

Lin Qiong glanced at her and walked towards her location.

At this moment, the young man was wearing a white T-shirt, and his hair was specially styled. When the sunlight shone on his hair, he looked like a college student who had just graduated.

After Lin Qiong sat down, the other person indeed didn't say anything about his clothes, but instead asked very naturally and familiarly, "What would you like to drink?"

"Water will do."

The two chatted idly while waiting for their blind date to appear.

Lin Qiong took a sip of water. "Did your aunt find you a few blind dates?"

Ji Yao held up three fingers.

Then he sighed, "If this doesn't work out, there will be even more problems in the future. I really envy you for not having this kind of trouble."

"I am married."

Lin Qiong stretched out her left hand, and the pigeon egg gleamed in the sunlight.

Ji Yao: "..."

"You can sit on the side there in a bit, and when the person arrives, you can check it out for me."

Lin Qiong extended her small hand and gave a slight OK.

"My goal today is to win someone's heart, so I won't have to go through countless blind dates."

When the blind date messaged Ji Yao saying he was almost there, Lin Qiong automatically took her water and went to the back side of the room.

The first person to walk in was a young man who looked to be only twenty-one or twenty-two years old, and Lin Qiong observed him intently.

To everyone's surprise, Ji Yao had only exchanged a few words with the person when the other person got up and left.

Lin Qiong stepped forward in confusion, "What's wrong? Weren't you having a good chat?"

Ji Yao looked weary. "The other person kept mentioning 'Mom' in every sentence. I thought he was coming to ask me to be his father."

Lin Qiong: "..."

"Let's see if the next one will be like the first one."

As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of the coffee shop door opening came from the doorway. Seeing a man standing there, Lin Qiong quickly teleported back to her previous spot.

The man was dressed in a suit, his hair was meticulously styled, and he wore gold-rimmed glasses, but his brows remained tightly furrowed ever since he entered the coffee shop.

Upon seeing Ji Yao, he walked over, sat down, and even wiped the table in front of him with a wet wipe.

Ji Yao noticed the person's meticulous movements and spoke, "Hello."

The man adjusted his glasses. "Hello, Miss Ji, I'm here today for a blind date."

Ji Yao nodded.

The man glanced at his watch and got straight to the point: "Miss Ji, what are your requirements for a partner?"

Ji Yao thought for a moment, "Loyalty is enough."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a message came through on his phone.

Ji Yao quietly turned his head to take a look.

Lin Qiong: "Loyalty is fundamental, not a condition!"

Ji Yao quickly changed his mind, "Anyone will do."

Lin Qiong: "..."

Man: "Is there anything else?"

Ji Yao shook her head; she didn't have any specific requirements for dating.

The man coughed. "Since Miss Ji has no requests, then I will state my requests."

“A man should have both a family and a career. I hope that after we get married, you can stay at home. Of course, both of our families are well-off, and I will provide you with the necessary material support.”

Ji Yao: "No, we just went on a blind date and have no intention of getting married."

However, the other party seemed not to hear him, "May I ask how old Miss Ji is this year?"

Ji Yao: "Thirty."

The man's brows furrowed even more. "Then you've already missed your prime childbearing years. I think, Miss Ji, you..."

Bang!

Before the man could finish speaking, a loud bang came from the table.

Lin Qiong slammed her fist on the table, making a crisp sound as the cup on the table rang.

The man looked at the newcomer and asked, "Who are you?"

Lin Qiong acted like she was worth two or five million, calling herself "just a passerby."

Ji Yao: ...

man:……

The man frowned. "Mr. Lu, do you have any complaints about us?"

Lin Qiong: "I just have a question."

man:?

Lin Qiong looked at him and asked, "What kind of genes in your family have such a short shelf life?"

The man's eyes widened instantly.

Then he said to Ji Yao, "It seems that this man's sperm has a low survival rate, so your relationship is doomed to fail."

The man stood up angrily: "You!"

Lin Qiong raised her head proudly, her face displaying an expression of arrogance.

how.

The blind date ended in failure, and the third blind date was even more direct.

They didn't come at all.

Ji Yao and Lin Qiong stood by the roadside drinking plum soda. "It seems I'm ultimately not cut out for a life with a man."

"We're both down on our luck, why should we need to know each other before we met!" Ji Yao tilted his head back and finished his soda. "Lin Qiong, let's just make do from now on."

Lin Qiong laughed and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

The young man's laughter was clear and bright, and his eyes seemed to shine.

"You may not have a man who wants you, but I do."
