Is this our first blind date?
Deng Jinyi: "How could that be? I've been on several dates before, but none of them worked out."
"It must be because your standards are too high that you didn't like the girl."
Deng Jinyi glanced at Ning Yan with a half-smile. At this moment, the two were sitting on either side of the coffee table in the study, very close to each other.
"I do have high standards. However, in the previous cases, it was the women who felt I wasn't suitable."
Ning Yan: "Why?"
"Because in their eyes I'm not in a good position."
Before, my monthly salary plus various subsidies was only a few thousand yuan. I had a car and a house, but they had nothing to do with me. After I got married, I would be reluctant to spend money on a meal at a high-end Western restaurant. So every blind date ended inconclusively.
How many blind dates have we had?
Ning Yan counted on her fingers: "My neighbor introduced me to two men, but we ended the dates without even having a meal together."
One party requested that after marriage, they split expenses equally and share the mortgage payments.
I'm responsible for cleaning, laundry, and cooking, while he's responsible for all the heavy lifting and moving.
I told him to wake up and stop dreaming in broad daylight.
What's the difference between sharing a mortgage and sharing rent?
He did all the housework – cleaning, laundry, cooking. Now even buying a bag of rice gets it delivered to the door. The house is new, so what kind of heavy lifting is there for him to do?
If expenses are split equally, wouldn't it be better for her to support herself?
To put it bluntly, this requirement is simply to find a roommate who will also act as a free housekeeper for the other person and let them sleep in for free.
"I went on another blind date later, and this one was pretty good. However, he had an ex-girlfriend who was still texting him during the date, and the key thing is that she actually replied. I said a few words and then left."
If your mind isn't clear, why are you going on a blind date?
"You are the third."
Deng Jinyi felt somewhat fortunate, fortunate that he acted early, and fortunate that the two she had met before were not very good.
"I heard from your aunt that you had excellent grades in school. Why didn't you consider taking the civil service exam?"
Ning Yan: "Actually, I did think about it, but during the break between taking the civil service exam, I submitted my resume and got accepted, so I went to the company to report for duty. But I found that the company's work was very easy, so I gave up on taking the civil service exam."
She doesn't plan to take the exam in this lifetime because the original owner of this body had no such intention.
She felt that becoming a civil servant was easy, but climbing the ranks was too difficult.
It takes all the right timing, location, and people; emotional intelligence, intellectual intelligence, and social skills—it's exhausting.
Unless she lacks ambition, she might as well stay at Ruijia; at least the salary is decent!
Ning Yan glanced at the time; it was already past nine o'clock. She stood up to say goodbye. "I should go back now."
Deng Jinyi: ...Actually, we don't have to go back. He has extra rooms here.
"Okay, I'll take you."
Ning Yan: "Then I'll have to trouble you."
After Deng Jinyi put on his coat and changed his shoes, the two went out together and dropped Ning Yan off at her apartment building. "Would you like to come up for a bit?" he asked.
Deng Jinyi: "I won't go up late at night, but I hope to visit you soon in another capacity."
He saw it clearly today: Ning Yan's boss had some ulterior motives towards her. He still felt more at ease marrying her as soon as possible.
Ning Yan got out of the car, bent down, and told him to drive slowly.
Then she went upstairs, and after she entered the bedroom, turned on the light, and stood by the window, the car downstairs drove away.
The next day at work, Ning Yan noticed that Ying Feiran's gaze towards her had returned to normal.
That's more like it. Those domineering CEOs who would steal or destroy what they couldn't have only exist in novels. In real life, it's normal for people to give up on someone they like.
Over the next two months, Ying Feiran assigned her several more projects, and she delivered perfect results each time, so much so that at the end of the year, she was transferred to the project department.
Appointed as Deputy Manager.
My salary naturally went up again.
Because Ying Feiran treated her well, Ning Yan completed three major projects in the two months after taking office, and Ying Feiran was generous, giving her a large bonus.
Sometimes, if you feel annoyed or tired at work, it's really because you're not being paid enough.
With so much money, who wouldn't want to go to work?
After the company's annual meeting, there was a holiday. Ruijia had a full two weeks off. Deng Jinyi had visited Ning's family a month earlier to meet their parents. After the holiday, the three members of the Deng family visited again to discuss the young couple's marriage.
"The date was set for May Day. Jin Yi chose the wedding room. It was fully furnished, so we could move in immediately without any airing out."
As for betrothal gifts and dowries, those are waived.
After all, Deng Jinyi is a civil servant, and high bride prices are not encouraged now, so he cannot go against the trend.
But after lunch, Deng Jinyi pulled Ning Yan outside and handed her a card, saying, "What others have, my wife must have too."
Ning Yan took the card. "How much is in here?"
"680,000."
Ning Yan: "My mom originally prepared 300,000 yuan as a safety net for me. If I give this card to her, she'll have a headache again."
"Then don't give it to her. It's enough that the two of us know."
Ning Yan: That's good, he didn't even tell his parents.
Isn't this just her allowance?
Reward him with a sweet kiss.
Perhaps concerned about his image, when suddenly embraced, Deng Jinyi nervously glanced around, but then lowered his head and kissed the person in his arms.
After the two parted, he suddenly sighed.
"What's wrong?"
"Do you think my uncle and aunt would agree if I went to them now and asked them to move the wedding date forward?"
Ning Yan laughed out loud, "Stop fooling around, there are still less than three months left, that's fast enough, okay?"
Deng Jinyi thought to himself: What's so quick about it? He can't wait to consummate the marriage tonight.
...
While Ning Yan and her family were happily celebrating the New Year, Xie Daqiang was anything but happy.
There's a hierarchy of contempt even among those who have been to prison.
For example, rapists will have a terrible time in prison.
When a prisoner enters the jail, people will ask, "What did you do to get in here?"
Xie Daqiang: "I didn't do anything wrong, I'm being framed."
Coincidentally, the person who asked the question was the dorm leader.
"Who the hell are you following?"
The "Big Face-Off" skill is now available, reducing the enemy's health to half and causing their rage to surge.
"Damn it, you dare hit me?"
Jie Daqiang fought back, but was beaten even worse because seven out of the eight people in the dormitory attacked him.
In the following days, Xie Daqiang was repeatedly beaten because he kept provoking him.
Later, when people found out what he had done to get in, they beat him even harder.
Sheba even spread the word about him. He's a rapist. People in jail can't get out, and after a while they'll start having other ideas. Basically, anyone who commits rape will get a beating once they're in.
Unfortunately, Xie Daqiang's appearance was rather unpleasant, so he was fortunate enough to escape unscathed.
Until the second day of junior high, he went to take a shower a little late and took a long time. He happened to run into a guy who loved spicy food. The guy liked his rough, bearded look and it was love at first sight.
So Xie Daqiang was pinned against the bathroom wall.
The other party was brought in because of attempted murder, and regardless of Xie Daqiang's wishes, they tried to force themselves on him. (End of Chapter)
