I'd been keeping an eye on Su Tiantian's messages. That day, I didn't actually run into Lu Yufeng by chance. I was waiting for her, making it seem like a coincidence. I'd heard she was seeing Su Tiantian. Since Su Tiantian was going on a blind date and had met so many potential partners, and my qualifications were no worse than theirs, why couldn't she be me? Her family's conditions perfectly matched my parents' expectations, and more importantly, I liked her. Only by finding a girl I liked and from a well-off family would I be happy.
When my parents were forcing me to go out with that divorced woman with children, I told them about my blind date with Su Tiantian. My mother said she knew whose daughter she was. She said Su Tiantian's parents owned a factory and were doing well, and she'd been there collecting scrap. She also said the Su family's production team had shared some money from selling land, and she'd heard the family had gotten a good share. She also said she'd heard the Su family's daughter was working in a big city, holding a high-ranking position and earning a good salary.
They even went to my aunt to discuss the matter. My aunt, upon hearing this, remarked that the Su family was well-off and generous with their daughter. She also heard that they'd given their daughter a share of the land sale money, unlike other families who only gave it to their sons. They said they wanted to visit the Su family. I was furious. We hadn't even started yet, and this couldn't happen. Su Tiantian would be furious. Mom said we couldn't waste time. We had to agree on the terms first. If they were suitable, we could talk, but if not, we could find someone else. Mom said my son was so talented, a graduate from a key university, tall and handsome, and a teacher with a permanent position. He was a perfect match for her. So we went to the Su family's house uninvited. It was a truly unforgettable scene. In fact, that day, I really wanted to find a hole to crawl into. It was so embarrassing.
I'm afraid, useless, and weak. My mom and aunt have always been very strong. Seeing them talk like this, I didn't dare to argue. But I really wanted to be with Su Tiantian. She was getting more and more beautiful, and I wanted to date her with the intention of getting married. Su Tiantian wasn't at all shy around her unreasonable mom and aunt. I found her to be so wonderful. Her parents loved her and protected her at every turn. I envied them. Why couldn't my parents be like that?
Liu Jingze arrived. He was dressed a little rustic that day, but he was tall and handsome, and the look he gave Su Tiantian was filled with love. Actually, I didn't recognize him at the time. He said Su Tiantian was his girlfriend and asked us to leave the Su family's house. He said he didn't need Su Tiantian as a dowry of a house and a car. He said he heard I was a teacher at Yanpu Town No. 1 Middle School and asked if he wanted him to notify the school to ask me to leave or call the police. He had a strong aura, and I didn't recognize him at the time, but my father did. Our family left the Su family in a panic.
When I got home, my mom and aunt complained that my dad and I, two grown men, were useless. My dad scolded them loudly, "He's Boss Liu's son. Do you understand? Can we compete with him?" I remembered who he was, Liu Jingze. The scholarship for Yanpu Town No. 1 Middle School was sponsored by his father, and some teaching equipment was donated by him on behalf of his father. When the principal introduced him, he said that students of our school can call him Senior Liu. I really didn't dare to offend him. If he went to the principal and said bad things about me, it would definitely affect my future work.
Su Tiantian posted on WeChat Moments that she had a boyfriend. The sight of their interlocked hands, their long fingers clasped against their slender ones, pierced my heart. I sent her a WeChat message: "Tiantian, is that guy really your boyfriend? Can't you really give me a chance?" Su Tiantian didn't reply. I knew I had no chance against Senior Liu; he was far superior to me. Unless Su Tiantian had me in her heart, and she didn't.
I was also a little scared. Besides Liu Jingze, my elementary school classmate, Su Tiantian's cousin, Ma Yiqiang, who I had fought with back in elementary school, was also there. Would he tell everyone we knew about what happened that day? How would I still have face among my classmates? I couldn't bear to think about it. I found a classmate, found Ma Yiqiang's WeChat, and added him. I told him I hoped he wouldn't tell the other students about this. He said he wouldn't, but told me not to keep my hopes up and keep pestering him. His cousin deserved better. Yes, Su Tiantian deserved better. Such an outstanding, beautiful girl with a good family background, how many men would like her?
My parents are forcing me to go on a blind date again. This time, I'm firm in my stance. I won't meet anyone who's divorced and has children, no matter how good their conditions are. I only agreed to go on a blind date after they agreed. I don't know when I'll meet the right person for me.
I urged my younger brother to find a job and support himself before applying for a civil service position. He scolded me, saying I had no good intentions and was trying to distract him from the exam. I got angry and asked, in front of my parents, why should I find a girlfriend who could pay for a house and a car, and why not let my younger brother find one? My younger brother blushed. He was used to having a good life and couldn't even be bothered to get a girlfriend, so he didn't even have one. Really, what kind of girl would be interested in a man without a job?
My parents always tell me I'm the oldest and should give in to my younger brothers. But why does Su Tiantian's younger brother always give in to Su Tiantian? And why does Ma Yiqiang always give in to his two older brothers? Ma Yiqiang is also on a blind date, but his blind date wasn't successful because of the house. He didn't compete with his two brothers. A man without a house is really a minus. If possible, I really don't want to be a brother. It's too tiring and too unfair.
That night, I went to Siqi Farm for dinner and a blind date. I met Senior Liu and Su Tiantian. They were really a perfect match. Seeing how close they were, I felt jealous and envious. I couldn't help but miss them and went over to say hello. I told Su Tiantian that I hoped she wouldn't block me, and just let me watch her happy. Liu Jingze is so good, will he make her happy?
