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

Is that too cautious?

A cautious approach is also very comfortable!

Xu Lang smiled, left Sister Wang's room, then left the living room, closed the door, and took a picture.

Send it to her!

I'm going back now.

Su Liqiu: [Xu Lang, my mom told me she introduced you to a female student who returned from studying abroad. How's it going?]

Xu Lang was surprised that Sister Wang had even told her daughter this: [That was the end of the story.]

Su Liqiu: [I have a high school classmate who's very pretty and single. Want me to introduce you?]

Xu Lang's heart skipped a beat!

He paused on his way back, lost in thought.

This girl is meticulous and discreet; is she trying to introduce me to someone?

I always thought this melon was ripe, but there might be poison in it!

Sister Wang even told her about her blind date with the female international student today, so it's impossible for her not to mention that she wanted to bring the two of them together.

But she still wanted to introduce her sisters to the group!

What's going on here?

Never mind, whatever her intentions may be, let's just consider it as completing a system task.

"Really? Thank you in advance. When can we arrange a meeting? Let me tell you about my situation."

Su Liqiu quickly replied: 【No need. My mom has already told me about your situation. As for hers, you can ask her yourself about the meeting. I'll ask her about her schedule tomorrow and then give you an answer.】

Xu Lang: [Okay.]

Su Liqiu: [Xu Lang, my mom might be getting harassed a lot lately. If it's convenient for you, could you please go check on her at home for me?]

Immediately following, a transfer occurred:

[Transfer 5000 yuan]

Xu Lang looked at the transfer and was both amused and exasperated. He thought to himself, "The world of the rich is simple, unpretentious, and boring."

Sister Wang is very kind to me; she even introduced me to potential blind dates. You don't need to be so polite...

……

Xu Lang had already returned to the rented room. He glanced at Zhang Yuejiao's door and saw that the light was still on under the door, so she probably hadn't gone to sleep yet.

He ignored it, went into his room, took a picture, and sent it to Su Liqiu.

After confirming that he had arrived home, Su Liqiu ended the conversation.

Xu Lang quickly switched his phone screen and used the 100,000 yuan that had just arrived to pay off his credit card.

The moment Xu Lang pressed the confirm repayment option, he felt like he had been elevated!

Debt-free!

The debt of 180,000 yuan has finally been paid off, with a balance of 20,000 yuan remaining.

I'm a little annoyed that the reward for my next blind date is a healthy kidney, not money.

What he needs most right now is money.

Although his mother might not ask him to repay the 60,000 yuan, he was already working, and if he weren't sick, he wouldn't have the face to take his parents' money and not pay it back.

"Go take a shower!"

He sprang to his feet in bed, in high spirits, humming a tune from "Good Days," grabbed his change of clothes, and headed out of the room to the bathroom.

Even while taking a shower, he couldn't help humming cheerful songs.

Zhang Yuejiao opened her bedroom door, wearing black-rimmed glasses, a set of pajamas, and slippers. Her gaze swept across the living room and fixed on the bathroom door, listening to Xu Lang's singing voice seeping out from the sound of running water.

I felt a little strange; this guy seemed to be in a pretty good mood these past two days.

Did I win the lottery?

She leaned against the door frame, staring at the bathroom door.

Until Xu Lang came out of the bathroom.

"what……"

Xu Lang was startled and instinctively took a step back, almost dropping the bath towel in his hand.

Being stared at so intently is a bit unsettling.

"Sister Yue, what are you doing?" Xu Lang calmed himself down a bit, then thought to himself, "I'm a 1.8-meter man, why would I be afraid of a 1.6-meter girl?"

She walked slowly and confidently towards the balcony.

"Don't stare at me like that, it's scary!"

Zhang Yuejiao sneered, "What are you afraid of? Afraid that I'll eat you up? Even if I did, I'd be the one who suffers!"

"No, Sister Yue, please don't have any ideas about me." Xu Lang waved his hands repeatedly, noticeably quickening his pace.

"I don't meet your requirements for a partner, I can't afford it, it's better if we keep our boundaries clear."

"Stop right there!" Zhang Yuejiao suddenly raised her voice, her tone becoming somewhat commanding, and her eyes sharpened.

"Come here, I have something to tell you!"

She walked to the living room sofa, sat down, and crossed her legs.

She instantly exudes the aura of a powerful career woman, as if she's looking down on her subordinates.

Xu Lang wasn't intimidated, since they had no professional interaction. He walked through the living room and hung the clothes he had just changed on the balcony.

There was a clothesline on the balcony, which the two of them divided equally, each taking half. Several pieces of clothing hung on Zhang Yuejiao's half, the most eye-catching being a pair of lace-trimmed undergarments fluttering in the air—

Judging from her clothes, Yuejie has a great figure; she's got curves in all the right places, and she's the type who doesn't show them off.

After hanging up the clothes, I went to the living room and sat on the single sofa next to her, maintaining a safe distance.

"Sister Yue, you're still up so late, are you waiting for me?" Xu Lang lit a cigarette, puffing out smoke, his tone slightly teasing.

"You don't actually have feelings for me, do you?"

"Get lost, you toad trying to eat swan meat!" Zhang Yuejiao rolled her eyes at him, her eyes still holding the same contempt as before.

"Even if I were to borrow sperm, I wouldn't choose a man like you who was swindled out of his savings by his ex-girlfriend, nearly died in the hospital, and still owes hundreds of thousands of dollars."

"..." Xu Lang felt a pang of regret!

If I hadn't been in a bad mood and drowning my sorrows in alcohol, I wouldn't have told her all this nonsense; in a way, it deepened her contempt for me.

But it doesn't matter now, the debt has been paid off!

He took a deep drag of his cigarette, a look of enjoyment on his face, and exhaled a thick cloud of smoke.

"I apologize for making a fool of myself, Sister Yue; however, I have paid off all my debts, and from now on all my money will be in the positive."

Zhang Yuejiao was slightly taken aback, somewhat surprised, her eyes filled with a hint of inquiry:

"You were complaining to me about being broke last month, and now you're all paid off? Did you sell a kidney or your body?"

puff!

Xu Lang was speechless. You feel uncomfortable if you don't criticize me?

"Sister Yue, how did your blind date go? Any updates?"

Come on, anyone can hurt each other!

Zhang Yuejiao's teasing expression froze, clearly showing displeasure:

"You men are all visual creatures; you can't see the inner qualities of us women. You're so superficial!"

"Yes, we are visual creatures!" Xu Lang readily admitted, making a move to get up:

"If you don't have anything else, I'm going to sleep. I have to get up early to work tomorrow, and I can dream about anything."

"Wait a minute!" Zhang Yuejiao hurriedly waved her hand, her speech noticeably faster, but then she stammered:

"I...I'd like to ask you for a favor."

He paused for a moment, then added, "You won't be helping for nothing; you'll be compensated."

Xu Lang rarely saw this assertive professional in this state, and he was genuinely curious:

"What kind of help? It's not... borrowing sperm, is it?"

"No!" she denied immediately, lowering her head and looking a little hesitant.

"Can you come home with me for Chinese New Year this year?"

"Huh?" Xu Lang had a big question mark above his head.

She was a little flustered, her fingers clutching the hem of her clothes:

"I had a fight with my mom yesterday because I'm still not married. She was so angry that she was hospitalized. She said she won't leave the hospital until I bring a boyfriend home this year. She's going to be driven crazy by me sooner or later..."

"Xu Lang, have you heard of those videos online where you rent a boyfriend? Let's do it that way. I'll pay you by the day, three hundred a day..."

Xu Lang was stunned!

Have we been forced to this point?

He had seen many news reports about renting boyfriends or girlfriends online to take home for the Chinese New Year, and some of these stories even turned into real relationships.

In some cases, after being taken home for the Lunar New Year, the men and their families raped the girls...

Various unexpected situations kept arising, making it a veritable social death scene!

Of course, there are also those who honestly complete the task according to the agreement.

If he had been 180,000 yuan in debt before, Xu Lang might have taken the risk for that amount of money, but now he is debt-free and has 20,000 yuan in savings.

He didn't want any unexpected incidents to occur during the process, after all, no one wants to experience a "Lost in Thailand Plus" version of the Chinese New Year holiday.

"Sister Yue, you should find professionals to play this kind of role, like extras. I can't do it! I'm a regular working person, not a professional actor."
