If you're going on a blind date, do it properly, don't confiscate my property!

The next day!

The weather in Hangzhou is as fickle as a woman's heart.

Yesterday the sky was clear and blue, but today it's all shrouded in a hazy filter. A light rain mixed with a cold wind seeps into people's collars, giving them goosebumps.

Xu Lang woke up fifteen minutes earlier than usual, not wanting what happened yesterday morning to repeat itself.

Sure enough, less than three minutes after he went into the bathroom to wash up, Zhang Yuejiao stood at the door with her greasy, unwashed hair and a wash cup in her hand, looking at him as if he were an enemy who had stolen her parking space.

"Oh, Xu Lang, you're up so early today!" Zhang Yuejiao sneered.

Xu Lang rolled his eyes at her. She had also brought it up earlier, clearly intending to use the same trick again. Fortunately, he was prepared.

Seeing that Xu Lang wasn't taking the bait, Zhang Yuejiao wasn't embarrassed at all. She simply leaned against the doorframe and started her sarcastic remarks:

"Xu Lang, you went on a blind date with Huang Jiayao and got rejected?"

Xu Lang remained silent, completely ignoring her.

"It's normal that you were rejected. Huang Jiayao's family has tens of millions in assets. She went to study in the United States right after graduating from high school, and her mother accompanied her. It's not something someone from the bottom of society like you can achieve."

"You have to be down-to-earth! A toad trying to eat swan meat will only end up getting crushed by the swan's excrement. Your circumstances are really quite ordinary; don't always aim for the highest branches, or you'll hurt yourself!"

She belittled and mocked Xu Lang without any restraint, and didn't feel there was anything wrong with it.

Xu Lang remained silent, too lazy to pay attention to her. After washing up, he walked out of the bathroom, not wanting to say a word to her.

Unexpectedly, she wasn't in a hurry to go to the bathroom to wash up. Instead, she followed Xu Lang and continued speaking:

"Xu Lang, I have other colleagues at work who are a little less well-off than you. They're from out of town, working in Hangzhou. They're from a rural area in Northwest China, and they just broke up with their boyfriends. Shall I introduce you two?"

In her mind, Xu Lang earns six or seven thousand a month, so he should look for girls with the lowest monthly salary, who don't come from good families and whose families can't offer any support.

Only a girl like this could be interested in Xu Lang!

Xu Lang stopped in his tracks, intrigued.

Conditions? Background?

Xu Lang didn't care!

What he cares about is—the system task! A huge, lucrative opportunity worth 100,000 yuan!

Does it matter whether the other party is a celestial being or a shrew, as long as you can get something out of the system?

unimportant!

He turned to look at her, his voice unusually gentle, even slightly ingratiating:

"Sister Yue, when can we arrange a meeting?"

Zhang Yuejiao's lips curled into a smile, a sense of control and satisfaction welling up within her. She slowly spoke:

"Xu Lang, although her family is not well-off, she is very beautiful, and many people in our company are pursuing her."

"But as her boss, if I ask her to go on a blind date with you, she will definitely agree. I'll put in a good word for you afterwards, and the chances of you two getting together are extremely high."

"This can be considered helping you resolve a major life event; shouldn't you repay me?"

No wonder they're a major internet company! They have so many beautiful women!

If we can get along well with Zhang Yuejiao, wouldn't that be equivalent to opening up a "matchmaking resource supply chain"?

If you go on dates with all her colleagues, you'd have to do it at least twenty or thirty times. At 100,000 per date, you'd make two or three million.

Just thinking about it makes me feel like there's hope for the future!

But going home with her for the Chinese New Year? He was unwilling; his parents had already started arranging blind dates for him.

If I were to go home for the Spring Festival, I would find at least ten or eight people, each worth hundreds of thousands or millions. Who would be willing to give that up?

Harvesting from both ends!

We have to take advantage of both sides!

"Sister Yue, do you want me to go home with you for the New Year?"

"Yes!" Zhang Yuejiao nodded without hesitation, then suddenly added:

"If you agree, and if it doesn't work out with this one, I have quite a few single female colleagues at my company. I can arrange two more for you, okay?"

"Ten, I want to see ten!" Xu Lang held up one finger and said firmly.

"I can help you win over your parents, but you have to promise to arrange ten blind dates for me before you go home for the Chinese New Year."

"Ten? Isn't that a bit too many?" Zhang Yuejiao didn't expect him to ask for so many.

It's not that the company doesn't have that many girls, it's just that the holiday is coming up soon. When you go on a blind date with a girl, you can't just meet her once and then there's no follow-up, right?

If you like each other after the first meeting, you'll definitely continue to get to know each other. After a month or two, it will be Chinese New Year.

You can't go on blind dates with other girls while you're getting to know this one.

If she's discovered, what kind of person will she be?

It will affect your reputation!

As a manager in the company, I have to maintain my dignity and authority.

"If you can't do it, then there's no point in talking!" Xu Lang made a move to enter the room.

Zhang Yuejiao hurriedly pulled open his door:

"Xu Lang, it's not that I can't do it, it's just that there's not enough time. You meet that girl, and then you have to keep in touch. During that time, you definitely can't go on any more blind dates, otherwise you'll be a scumbag, a player!"

Xu Lang smiled and said, "As long as there's no established relationship, meeting more outstanding women is called casting a wide net and catching more fish, then choosing the best one; that's not being a jerk, that's efficiency!"

"You...you're such a scumbag!" Zhang Yuejiao was furious, but she felt this tactic was somewhat familiar—

Isn't this something she's already done before?

It's just that I'm getting too old to play these games anymore!

"Sister Yue, think it over carefully, and tell me when you've figured it out." Xu Lang went inside to do his work and closed the door.

"Xu Lang, wait a minute!" Zhang Yuejiao cried out anxiously, gripping the doorknob tightly with a look of struggle in her eyes.

To fulfill his parents' long-cherished wish, to bring him home so they could have some peace and quiet, and to shut up the gossip of all his relatives.

Take a gamble!

"If I promise to introduce you to ten girls, will you be willing to come home with me for the New Year?"

"I don't want to!"

"Are you... playing with me?" Zhang Yuejiao's anger suddenly flared up, and she stared at him sharply.

Xu Lang pondered for a moment: "Think about it, what is it that you truly want?"

Zhang Yuejiao blurted out, "Boyfriend!"

"Incorrect answer, please answer again!"

"To put my parents' minds at ease, so they won't nag me when I go home for the New Year!"

"That's more like it!" Xu Lang said with a smile.

"How can I stop you from being nagged? It's just about proving you have a boyfriend, but he doesn't necessarily have to come home with you. We can work remotely!"

"Just tell them that we've just started dating and our relationship isn't stable enough yet; once it's more stable, then you can take me home to meet your parents."

"And I'll be cooperating with you remotely. If your parents want to see a photo of the two of us together, we'll take one. If they want to see a photo of the two of us in bed, we can consider taking one too... Hey, what's wrong with your eyes?"

When talking about the bed photos, Zhang Yuejiao's eyes were almost piercing, and she also looked disgusted.

Ultimately, they still look down on people from the lower rungs of society like Xu Lang.

"Even if we pretend to be a couple, you can't take advantage of me!"

Xu Lang waved his hand decisively and said righteously:

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in old women!"

"You...who's old? You're the old one, your whole family is old!" Zhang Yuejiao was furious; she really wanted to tear Xu Lang's mouth apart.

However, since I needed their help, I had no choice but to bow my head.

"Xu Lang, if you're just here to take some photos, I can only introduce you to three; after all, I'll owe you a favor for every one I introduce!"

"Ten, not a single one less!" Xu Lang's attitude was firm and unyielding. "Who told you to send me my photo?"

You have no choice but me!

"Five, five at most!" Zhang Yuejiao gritted her teeth.

She does have quite a few girls under her wing, and it would be easy for her to gather ten single girls, but she knows very well that the debts of gratitude are the hardest to repay.

In her mind, introducing a girl to a boy meant she owed the girl a favor. After all, the girl had no shortage of boys pursuing her, and she was only meeting the boy she introduced to as a favor, so the girl had to owe her a favor.

"Ten!" Xu Lang insisted.

"You... Xu Lang, don't push your luck!" Zhang Yuejiao gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, truly regretting sending his photo to her parents.

His mother even posted the photo in the family group chat, and dozens of people in the family had seen Xu Lang's picture.

Changing the person now will definitely cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

"Ten is fine, but I have conditions!"

Xu Lang wouldn't budge, so she had to add more conditions.

Besides, if we agree first, we can come up with other tactics to renege on the debt or delay it indefinitely.

With her experience and wisdom, handling Xu Lang would be a piece of cake.

Xu Lang raised an eyebrow: "Tell me about it!"
