Seeing that Ye Dongfeng was deep in thought, Ya Zi went to look at him.
Ye Dongfeng was still on the phone, calling his mother. As soon as the call connected, he immediately told her his situation: "Mom, am I going to die? My colleague just checked and said I have a near-death experience..."
"Son, you found out. Sigh, looks like I couldn't hide it from you anymore."
Ye's mother sighed on the phone and said, "Since you already know, I won't hide it from you anymore. Your father saw this calamity for you first, so we've been arranging blind dates for you recently..."
"No, if this calamity is real, even if you set me up on blind dates, I might not be able to give you a grandson so quickly~"
Ye Dongfeng, thinking about his recent blind dates—all for the sake of giving his parents a grandson—was speechless. He said, "I knew it! So that's why they're in such a rush to get me married!"
"Tsk, you brat, who said you were getting married just to have a grandson?"
Ye's mother cursed on the phone: "You idiot, we arranged for you to get married so that we could bring you good luck. I've calculated it for you. If we can bring you good luck, then your chances of surviving that calamity will be much better."
"Ah, I see. Hehe~ I thought it was to leave you with a grandson..."
After listening to Ye's mother's explanation, Ye Dongfeng understood. He said, "Oh dear, why didn't you tell me sooner? Honestly, you almost scared me to death..."
"With your personality, how could we dare tell you? Okay, go to sleep early. Go on more blind dates tomorrow and try to get married within this month!"
After telling Ye Dongfeng about this, his mother hung up the phone, leaving Ye Dongfeng scratching his head in distress. He looked at Ya Zi behind him and said, "My mom said she wants me to go on blind dates and get married to bring me good luck, because that would increase my chances of surviving my ordeal. But, you know, this marriage is really giving me a headache. I don't want to get married so soon."
"But if you don't get married, your life might be in danger!"
After listening to Ye Dongfeng's words, Ya Zi understood what was going on with his recent blind dates. He patted Ye Dongfeng's shoulder sympathetically and said, "How about this, aren't you getting married this month? Why don't you take a month off to go on blind dates? You're bound to find someone suitable after going on several."
"Hmm, while your suggestion is indeed a good one, I still don't want to get married so early~"
Ye Dongfeng said with great distress, "Ugh, this is so frustrating. On one hand, I'm in a marriage where I have no freedom, and on the other hand, I'm facing a life-threatening crisis. Why is my life so difficult?"
"Come on, if there's a chance to save him, don't bother with all that."
Hidden appeared at some point and said, "Your tribulation is coming soon, probably in the next month or two. Your parents probably foresaw this, which is why they're pressuring you to get married this month. You need to go on your blind dates properly. I've approved your leave."
"Yes, go ahead and do your best. Actually, I think it's already good enough that you can choose. If we didn't let you choose and just found someone for you to marry to bring good luck, that would be truly terrible~"
Ya Zi, sitting on the sofa, looked at her phone and said, "Isn't that how it's portrayed on TV? A person is about to die, and in order to keep him alive, his family finds an ugly woman to marry him. Look at you, you can at least take your time to choose."
"No, bro, why do you always watch these weird TV shows? That's just TV, it's all staged!"
Ye Dongfeng looked at Ya Zi with a wry smile, but in the end he still agreed with him: "But that's true, it's not bad that I can still be picky. Sigh, never mind, I'll take leave and go on blind dates starting tomorrow. Hidden, you help me ask for leave."
"Okay, hurry up and choose one. Once you've chosen one, we'll get married, and we'll give you a wedding gift."
Hidden chuckled: "Even though you could work with us and continue being colleagues even if you died, I still prefer you alive."
"Yeah, it's better to be alive. Otherwise, the working hours would be different, and it might be even busier in the underworld~"
Ya Zi quickly added, "So, you should hurry up and find a beautiful woman to marry, so you can invite us to your wedding banquet."
"Okay, don't worry, I won't die that easily," Ye Dongfeng said as he took his phone and went back to his room. "I'll rest now, you guys should go to sleep early too, goodnight."
"good evening."
"Okay, go to sleep."
