Chapter 28: Blind Date 2
After Qiu Ying talked to her a few times, Ning Yan gave her a definite answer: she would never bother with Fu Jiaxing again. She had blocked all his calls and messages. It was hard to find a three-legged toad in this world, but there were plenty of two-legged men.
Qiu Ying felt relieved, and gradually reduced her contact with Ning Yan.
Ning Yan didn't have time to ponder Qiu Ying's little schemes, because her Mom had assigned her a new blind date mission.
After her daughter's second blind date failed, Ning's Mom signed Ning Yan up for a large-scale blind dating event.
Hundreds of men and women were participating in a group blind date. Because the registration fee was as high as one thousand yuan, Ning's Mom, who felt the pinch of the money, instructed Ning Yan that she must bring a boyfriend back.
Fortunately, one registration granted lifelong benefits, otherwise Ning's Mom wouldn't have paid so readily. She had entrusted her daughter's lifelong happiness to this one thousand yuan.
Ning Yan knew the Original Host's Mom's personality well; if she didn't go, she would probably be nagged to death. Therefore, she didn't refuse, simply tidied herself up a bit, and came over.
Ning Yan's appearance in this world: long curly hair, peach blossom eyes, a perky nose, fiery red lips, plus a small red mole at the corner of her eye made her look very sexy.
She was 170 cm tall, weighed only 102 jin, had a standard C-cup bust, a small perky derriere, and perfectly straight legs, without even a hint of calf muscle. Seeing her legs would make people think of the phrase: 'legs that can be played with for years'.
Logically, such a great beauty shouldn't have been reduced to needing blind dates, but this brings us to the Original Host's parents.
These two were typical old-fashioned people who favored sons over daughters, believing that a daughter would eventually belong to someone else's family. However, due to their work, they dared not have a second child, and relied entirely on their daughter for old-age support.
So they didn't allow the Original Host to find work outside. Even though the Original Host was doing well at her internship, and HR had even approached her, hoping she would stay, because the Original Host's Mom disagreed, she returned to her hometown after graduation.
After returning, finding a job wasn't so easy. Low-paying jobs couldn't support her, and high-paying jobs required work experience. After idling at home for just one month, because those familiar old neighbors whispered in the Original Host's Mother's ear, the old couple became desperate for her to marry.
They wished their daughter would find a suitable man tomorrow and get married the day after.
The most common words the Original Host heard at home every day were not about marriage, but about finding a job.
Honestly, anyone who stayed in such a home for too long would become depressed.
Therefore, Ning Yan also wanted to quickly resolve her marriage issue.
Why not think about finding a job first?
Well, because she really couldn't endure the hardship of working.
As soon as Ning Yan appeared in the blind date hall, the eyes of nearly a hundred people in the hall instantly shot towards her.
She acted as if she hadn't noticed, calmly found her seat according to her number, and then picked up the small booklet on the table that introduced all the male participants.
Although most of what was written on it was fake, careful analysis could still reveal the information she wanted.
For example, this No. 5, his personal motto was: 'Heaven-sent talent must be used'.
Hmm, this person seemed to be a bit frustrated and unaccomplished, or perhaps he truly had no talent, which led to his lack of success.
And then there's No. 8 who said his hobbies were listening to music, reading, playing tennis, and long-distance running. He seemed like a talented, tasteful, and athletic person—
Modern young people would rather lie down than sit, and would rather play on their phones than read, so he was just showing off.
Hmm, this No. 20 was even more interesting. His greatest hobby in life was making money.
Ning Yan estimated that he probably worked three jobs every day, and it was a wonder he still had time to come to a blind date.
Soon, a man with a side part sat across from her. The moment he spoke, he had an arrogant tone:
"Hello, nice to meet you. My name is Chen Fu, I'm 28 years old, graduated from A University, and currently work as a manager at Aisen Group, with an annual salary of 500,000 yuan. I'm looking for a virtuous wife.
To be frank, your appearance doesn't quite fit my aesthetic."
Everyone around who heard his words wanted to slap him. If you don't like her, don't sit there! Damn, their eyes were glued to her, they really didn't know how he could say such a thing!
"However, seeing that your personality is quite good, I can give you a chance for us to try getting to know each other.
When you meet a high-quality male guest like me, don't act like other women and cause trouble. I've already prepared a wedding house, and I can provide a bride price of 200,000 yuan. Also, I hope you don't work after marriage and take good care of the home. I will give you 2,000 yuan in pocket money every month; the rest of the money I need to use to pay off the mortgage."
Ning Yan immediately began to speak sarcastically, "Oh my, you'll give me 2,000 yuan every month? That's too much!
Then I absolutely must buy a big villa every month, and then a Rolls-Royce, and by the way, buy a hundred or eighty Hermes bags!
No, there's still so much money left, should I buy a Boeing 747 too!
If I don't spend it all, I'm afraid you won't give me money next month!
You say your conditions are so good, yet your demands are too simple!
Unlike me, I have many demands, but the most important one is that the other person must not be a show-off!
Oh my, in this day and age, there really aren't many law-abiding people like me!" If this wasn't a public place, she would have smashed that man's dog head!
Muffled laughter came from around, and it was obvious who they were laughing at!
If one didn't know, they would think that 2,000 yuan was 200 billion yuan!
Chen Fu: ...
Chen Fu's face was dark. He wanted to say some harsh words, but Ning Yan was already ignoring him, so he could only slink away and change seats.
After the man surnamed Chen left, someone quietly asked Ning Yan about her ideal partner criteria.
Since the person asked sincerely, Ning Yan didn't continue to be sarcastic and answered genuinely, "Rich and handsome, but most importantly, willing to spend money on me, with monthly pocket money starting at 500,000 yuan.
I have a delicate illness by nature, can't do any chores, can't endure the hardship of working, and certainly won't cook or serve in-laws.
My greatest skill is spending money."
It was all the truth; she didn't like to be fake with others.
Ning Yan's voice wasn't low, and upon hearing her demands, no one without the financial means dared to sit in front of her.
Now, the atmosphere of the blind date event seemed to change instantly. After seeing Ning Yan's appearance, the men lost interest in other women.
The women were angry because the men's attention was entirely on Ning Yan, so their spirits were low. It looked like this blind date event was about to fail, and the person in charge was sweating profusely!
"I thought that with a great beauty coming, the quality of the female guests would improve, and it would increase the chances of guests pairing up!
Now it seems, it might just bomb!
A steady man of about thirty patted the person in charge's arm, "What's going on? Why are you so anxious?"
The person in charge turned to complain to his cousin, "A beauty came, but her demands are too high, scaring all the male guests away."
"Beauty? How beautiful? More beautiful than those celebrities on TV? Which number?"
The person in charge, "You'll see her as soon as you go in. She's the prettiest one."
