The game's heroine has come true? The aloof school beauty is in tears.

"Honey, how did your blind date go today?"

"Daughter."

"Daughter!"

At the Xu family's dining table, the whole family sat together eating.

While serving the rice, Xu's mother asked her daughter, as usual, how her blind date went today.

But no answer was received.

Xu's mother sighed and lowered her head.

Both she and Xu's father were the kind of people who had the stars and the sea in their hearts.

When Xu's father was young, he served as a volunteer in the border regions, and Xu's mother taught in a mountain village.

The ideal has been achieved, but at the cost of having a daughter late in life.

The elderly couple had long passed retirement age, but their only daughter, Xu Zhixiao, was still unmarried.

The age difference is large, and communication is difficult.

"Xiao, you have to understand your mother. I don't want to pressure you, but you're old enough to be thinking about this..."

It took Xu's mother a lot of effort to finally say that one sentence.

But Xu Zhixiao was still in a daze.

Upon seeing this, Mr. Xu said something.

"Xiao, why aren't you talking to your mother?"

Even if someone really doesn't want to go on a blind date, they shouldn't just ignore it.

Hearing this, Xu Zhixiao finally came to her senses, and a look of apology appeared on her fair face.

"I'm sorry, Mom and Dad, I was just thinking about something."

"What's troubling you so much? Did something go wrong at work?"

"No, Mom."

Xu Zhixiao gestured to her parents to relax, then picked up a tissue and wiped her mouth.

"Dad, I'm going to the clinic to get my medicine ready."

"Where did you get so much medicine to brew?"

Xu's father scratched his head.

After all, Xu Zhixiao usually works very hard, so he rarely asks Xu Zhixiao for help.

Yesterday was just a special case.

Is there any medicine to be brewed today?

How come I don't know about the clinic I own?

"Oh dear, I have an appointment with a patient."

Xu Zhixiao looked like she was in a hurry.

Xu's parents didn't say anything, assuming that she had indeed made an appointment with the patient.

After all, Xu Zhixiao is a well-known obedient girl and wouldn't lie.

But strangely enough...

Xu Zhixiao only looked rushed, but her actions were not rushed at all.

She even went back to her room and put on makeup.

The elderly couple were stunned when they went out.

I don't need to wear makeup to work.

After a long and tiring day at get off work, there's even less reason to put on makeup.

Just as Mrs. Xu was about to ask a question, Mr. Xu interrupted her with a smile.

"A woman adorns herself for the one she loves."

When Xu's mother heard this, her eyes lit up, and she felt that what she said made a lot of sense.

And so a strange scene unfolded at Old Xu's house.

Xu Zhixiao wanted to avoid her parents asking about her makeup.

She turned to the side as much as possible, pretending to yawn and covering her face with her hand.

The elderly couple pretended not to see it.

He also started turning to the side, pretending to be tired, and rubbing his face with his hands. Even Lao Xu started closing his eyes and doing eye exercises.

No wonder they come from a family of doctors; even when they're pretending to be sleepy, they make sure to have a set of eye protection on hand.

A family, but they were pretending to be sleepy, back to back.

"Mom, I'm going out."

Remember to come back later.

"what?"

"Don't stay out too late, after all, it's a date... a short consultation time won't be enough to find out the problem."

Xu's mother almost let it slip, but she corrected herself in time.

But Xu Zhixiao still noticed something amiss.

"Mom, I really am going to see a doctor."

"Mom knows. Remember to take some photos of her during the consultation so she can see them too."

"What's so interesting about a medical consultation?"

It was clear that Xu Ma's gossipy nature could no longer be hidden.

Old Xu quickly tugged at his wife's sleeve, signaling his daughter to hurry up and go out.

After confirming that his daughter was far away, Old Xu finally spoke: "Hold your tongue and ask again when things are more or less settled."

"Old Xu, this Xiao Lu is really something."

Xu's mother knew that Xiaolu had gone on a blind date with her daughter.

Therefore, we can infer from this that...

Xiao Lu must have cheered up her daughter, which is why she came back, ate a bite of food, and then rushed out on a date.

"Old Xu, you're allowed to have a couple of sips."

Xu's mother was delighted and sat down at the table to grant a general amnesty.

Old Xu waved his hand: "It's not a big deal, why are you so happy?"

That's what he said.

But he reached out and touched the gray hair on his head, then went to the study and got half a cup of medicinal wine.

While receiving the wine, he made a phone call to his old friend:

"Old Meng, are firecrackers allowed outside the Third Ring Road now?"

...

"Aunt Liu, don't close the door yet."

There was no medicine to brew today. Aunt Liu was just about to finish cleaning up and close the shop to go home when she happened to see Xu Zhixiao walking over.

My eyes lit up when I looked up.

According to Aunt Liu's perspective...

Xiao is the epitome of womanhood.

Having shed the naivety of girlhood, her body begins to exude feminine charm with age, coupled with the graceful demeanor naturally bestowed upon her by her scholarly family background.

If Lu Yuan were here, he would definitely give a more appropriate term.

The sacred body of the innate mother.

It's not the kind of sacred body you can recognize by the voice in a video game.

She's the kind of mother who seems happy to be treated like a son or daughter.

Eastern traditional aesthetics favor round and smooth shapes, and with proper conditioning, she has abundant qi and blood.

So Aunt Liu thought Xiao was beautiful no matter how she looked at her, and wished she were her daughter.

"Ah Xiao looks really beautiful today?"

Aunt Liu could also tell that Xu Zhixiao was wearing makeup.

But she had no doubts.

After all, the two of them don't spend much time together.

In her eyes, it's perfectly normal for a girl to wear makeup on a regular basis.

"Thank you." Xu Zhixiao said with a slight smile, "Aunt Liu, you can go home now. I'll go in and see the patients."

"How about I keep you company for a while?"

"No need, Auntie, it's a patient I know."

"Okay, I'll be going now."

Xu Zhixiao and Aunt Liu passed each other by.

Alone, I turned on the light and entered the familiar examination room.

He leaned on his head, gazing at Zhang Zhongjing's portrait on the wall, lost in thought.

She came here to wait for someone, of course.

She's waiting for the person she's going on a blind date with today.

The conversation between the two came to an abrupt end, and they had no way to contact each other.

This meant that the only way the two of them could still keep in touch was through a traditional Chinese medicine clinic.

When she examined that person the day before yesterday, she mentioned that she was always here.

I figured I could find her.

She and that person were just like-minded people who exchanged ideas.

This isn't actually a particularly special relationship.

After all, we live in the internet age, so even if your hobbies are extremely outrageous and bizarre, you can still enjoy them.

If you're willing to look, you can find groups of people with similar interests online.

But this was the first time she had communicated about rock music in real life as Xu Zhixiao.

Because she felt that her parents would never support her.

Although her parents were relatively open-minded and supported her learning musical instruments from a young age.

However, the scope is limited to classical instruments such as the piano and cello.

During holidays and family gatherings, she would perform piano and vocal music, using a gentle voice that was already very similar to Jin Haixin's.

Sing a section of "Love is Like a Narcissus".

So when she first used the identity of Xu Zhixiao to openly talk to people about rock and roll.

A strange feeling welled up inside me.

Therefore, she did not deliberately try to obtain contact information from matchmaking agencies through her parents' channels.

Because she felt that since that man hadn't used a matchmaking service to get her contact information either.

This shows that the two people have the same tacit understanding.

Actually, this is easy to understand if you change the context.

The young ladies from prominent families who run the medical clinic usually enjoy reading forbidden books and yearn for the adventures and tribulations of the martial arts world.

But this is clearly not something a lady from a respectable family should do.

She could only secretly communicate with strangers by sending messages via carrier pigeon.

Until suddenly someone who knew her identity appeared and openly discussed the bloody battles of the martial arts world with her.

They even arranged to meet at midnight tonight by the west wing wall...

Then Cui Yingying saw them off at the pavilion...

What were you thinking! Or maybe you've been reading too many different stories.

Xu Zhixiao rubbed her temples, flipped through the medical book in her hand, and smiled slightly.

Although there was no communication between them.

She felt that the man would definitely come.

Although we have just met, we are already kindred spirits.
