Terrible news! My deskmate's first chapter is gone!

"I just saw the two of you sitting here, and my intuition tells me that you're both single, right?"

"If you don't mind, would you like to check out my matchmaking agency?"

"I'm the boss, I can help you register your information for free."

"But we have nothing!"

"Which girl would be interested in us?"

Chen Xi replied.

He's still a long way from getting married, but he's already seen a lot of news about it.

People naturally know that when it comes to marriage these days, whether there is love or not is no longer so important; having money is the key.

Upon hearing this, Ye Lianbin smiled knowingly.

"Youth itself is a unique advantage."

At that moment, Chen Xi's phone lit up.

It was a message from Yang Wei.

There are only four characters on it.

Yang Wei: Extend your arms!

This information was completely unexpected for Chen Xi.

This man named Ye Lianbin is the owner of a matchmaking agency, and this is further evidenced by his behavior.

Before receiving Yang Wei's message, Chen Xi thought the other party was the "matchmaker" with serial number 248.

This was an identity from a previous large group chat, which Chen Xi remembered very clearly.

Unexpectedly, the other party turned out to be a fake human, and this ability was actually Old Wang's natural talent from before, which was the ability to extend his arms.

As a natural talent ranked 100th, the maximum number of pseudo-humans with extended arms is 100.

It's not surprising to encounter a second one, since they are quite common.

But why would a fake like him...?

Could it be...?

Chen Xi's mind raced, and he firmly believed in one sentence.

All the strangeness is for profit.

With this as the core source, Chen Xi immediately thought of a certain possibility.

"What you said makes some sense. Actually, we are half-brothers."

"Unfortunately, I don't have a degree, and things are different now than before. The construction industry isn't doing well either, and there are fewer and fewer ways to make a living purely through physical labor."

"I'm still sitting here at this hour because I'm worried about this."

"If your matchmaking service can help us brothers find a rich woman, that would be great."

Chen Xi spoke fluently without hesitation.

"You're quite humorous, handsome! Okay then, shall we go check it out?"

"My company is nearby."

Chen Xi's words already implied agreement, and Ye Lianbin's words were directed at Yang Wei.

"OK."

Yang Wei also gave an affirmative answer.

He knew Chen Xi had seen the message he sent, but he still did so, proving that Chen Xi was preparing to do something.

Yang Wei naturally didn't know what exactly he was going to do, but it certainly wasn't a blind date.

It's true that the other party is a fake, but how can we be sure that this fake with extended arms is only at stage I?

It would be troublesome if it were a Phase II situation.

Before fighting that blazing sun fake man, Chen Xi insisted that he must not use the extraordinary characteristics of the Emperor Demon's identity.

Yang Wei understood this, but he also trusted Chen Xi, so he naturally didn't say anything more.

Indeed, as Ye Lianbin said, his company is located nearby.

He couldn't sleep today, so he planned to go to the company early to organize the documents. Meeting Chen Xi was purely by chance.

After a ten-minute walk, the three arrived at their destination.

Family wedding celebration.

The company wasn't tall, it was on the second floor, and the three of them went up the stairs.

It's called a company, but it's actually just a converted apartment building. It's quite large, with six rooms, and if nothing unexpected happens, it's used for matchmaking.

Out of habit, Ye Lianbin started brewing tea and at the same time took out a book of information about female members for Chen Xi and the other person to look at.

It's good to see what happens while we wait.

Since I'm just killing time anyway, whether it's what I suspected or not remains to be seen.

Chen Xi turned to the first page.

Good grief, that's a critical hit right from the start.

Female guest: Huang Yin

Age: 38 years old

Monthly salary: 6000 yuan

Hobbies: Traveling, photography

Note: The bride price requirement is consistent with the age. Currently, a 38-year-old needs a bride price of 38 yuan.

Female guest: Wu Dao

Age: 28 years old

Monthly salary: 5000 yuan

Hobbies: Traveling, photography

Note: Local residents of Sheung Shui do not require a bride price, do not have children after marriage, do not do housework, do not cook, the man must hand over all his salary, they value a sense of ceremony, and celebrate Valentine's Day on the 14th of every month.

Female guest: Yang Li

Age: 29 years old

Monthly salary: None

Hobbies: Playing video games, watching TV series

Note: I am a local resident of Sheung Shui and do not require a bride price. I am a homebody and am open to having one child after marriage. I am naturally insecure.

The man and his parents' entire salary, as well as their car and house, must be transferred to their own names before the marriage certificate is issued.

Nima!

Even the most ruthless capitalist wouldn't have come up with such an unequal treaty, would they?

This was Chen Xi's first reaction. She usually just read jokes online, but it turned out that there were actually people like this in real life.

And there were as many as the stars. After flipping through a few more pages, some of the demands weren't too unreasonable, but they weren't much better either.

Chen Xi's most direct feeling is that boys who can meet these requirements are unlikely to date girls who make these requirements.

Although Yang Wei is older than Chen Xi, he has never been on a blind date.

He mentioned this to Chen Xi during a conversation. It wasn't that no one could introduce him to someone, but rather that he felt his circumstances were poor and he should work hard first to at least have a stable income before making a down payment on a house.

When I looked at it today, the sky had fallen!

Yang Wei pointed to a female guest whose height and weight were the same.

"Boss, putting aside her figure and looks, this divorced woman is demanding a dowry of 38.8 yuan!"

"The reason given was that I didn't get it right last time; I only accepted a dowry of 3 yuan and no gold jewelry, so I'm planning to get married again and start a truly wonderful life!"

Chen Xi paused for a moment, then nodded:

"Absolutely right, for her, it truly marks the beginning of a wonderful life!"

As the two watched the union meeting, Ye Lianbin's water boiled.

He naturally overheard the conversation between Chen Xi and the other person:

"Indeed, the demands these girls made were somewhat excessive."

"But there's no way around it, it's a fact that there are more women than men, so if you want to get married, you have to be more outstanding than the average man."

"Just like in the animal kingdom, males compete for mating rights."

"What's that famous saying? If you won't do it, plenty of others will!"

Snapped.

After Ye Lianbin finished speaking, he placed two cups of freshly poured hot tea in front of Chen Xi and the other person.

"Then what are you going to do?"

Yang Wei blurted out something as if possessed.

"I'm not getting married."

Ye Lianbin responded with a faint smile.
