Nine Failed Blind DatesChapter 1 The Ninth Blind Date in Progress
Unable to withstand my mom's relentless pressure, I found myself embarking on my ninth blind date.
The man sitting across from me was wearing a translucent white T-shirt with some suspicious yellow stains on it. The moment I sat down, he started criticizing me.
The man sitting across from me was wearing a translucent white T-shirt with some suspicious yellow stains on it. The moment I sat down, he started criticizing me.
"What are you wearing? This is a mess!"
"Girls look good in pink or white!"
"I heard you work in new media. How much do you make a month?"
"I work for a state-owned enterprise!"
These comments alone weren't enough to break me.
The real kicker was that while he was devouring his meal, he had oil smeared all over his mouth, making smacking noises as he chewed.
I was terrified that the next second, the sauce from the corner of his mouth, mixed with saliva, would land on me.
Ugh!
I took a deep breath.
Who is this person?
Is my mom really that desperate for me to get married?
I looked down at the two glasses of water in front of me.
Lemonade or iced coffee?
Someone else made the decision for me.
Sitting behind me was a couple, both strikingly attractive.
I noticed them as soon as I walked in.
Now, this is what a high-quality blind date looks like!
A perfect match, with compatible backgrounds, ready to soar together, leading to a happy and prosperous future...
But the woman soon shattered my fantasy.
"William Smith, you've gone too far! Five million? What do you take me for?"
The woman, with her luscious wavy hair, looked defiant as she splashed her iced coffee on the man across from her.
Yikes!
I couldn't help but shudder.
That must be refreshing, right?
Wait, am I focusing on the wrong thing?
Five million!
And she's not willing.
"I would be!"
I screamed internally.
"Give it to me! If she doesn't want it, I do!"
Unfortunately, the people across didn't hear my thoughts.
I pretended to touch up my makeup while secretly watching the drama unfold.
Gulp, gulp...
That man has an incredible physique!
The wet white shirt clung to his body, revealing faint outlines of his muscles beneath.
Some words popped into my mind.
The epitome of tantalizing temptation!
Tsk tsk!
This man is dangerously attractive!
Not even the yellow coffee stains could diminish his handsome features. Instead, they added a hint of restraint and allure.
