Shen Modi sat in the coffee shop with her eyes red.Her father was in the late stage of liver cancer and didn't have much time left.

Maybe a month, or maybe... even less.

She knew that there were two things her father was most worried about: one was her younger brother Xiaoguang, and the other was her marriage.She could take care of her brother, but as for her marriage...

In order to ease her father's mind, she sent her information to a matchmaking agency and started going on blind dates.It didn't matter who she married; it was all the same anyway.

"Miss Shen, hello. Sorry to have kept you waiting," a man said. After comparing the photo on his phone, he sat down in front of Shen Modi and casually placed the keys to his BMW on the table.

"It's okay. I just arrived," Shen Modi quickly composed herself and smiled slightly.

"Miss Shen, I have a general understanding of your situation through the matchmaking agency. Your education and work are both good, and you just meet my standards. I'm quite satisfied with you," the man said with a smile, looking Shen Modi up and down contentedly.She was the most beautiful woman he had ever met on a blind date.

Her skin was fair, her features were beautiful, and she had an elegant and refined temperament.She was like a lotus, quiet and bright, and you just couldn't ignore her beauty.

Rao was very picky about women and wanted to marry her and take her home immediately.

"Thank you!" Shen Modi smiled politely.

She was also ready to ask the man some questions, but he preempted her.

The man said, "Miss Shen, you should have an understanding of my basic situation. I work for the Huo Group, with a monthly salary of 15,000. I have a 170 - square - meter four - bedroom apartment and a BMW.

After we get married, I won't add your name to the house deed because it is my pre - marital property. I believe you are a modern woman and won't make unreasonable demands.

As for the betrothal gifts, according to the market situation, I will give 88,000, but nowadays people usually bring them over.

You can choose to receive cash directly, or you can buy it as dowry. I prefer to buy it as dowry, so the wedding will seem more decent.

I am 29 years old this year, and I'm not in a hurry to have children. But you are 24 years old. For a woman, this age is actually quite large. It is best to have children immediately after getting married. Otherwise, your figure may change easily, and you will age quickly.

Also, in my family, there is a single - lineage inheritance. If the first - born child is a girl, we still need to have a boy. I believe you can understand this.Besides, men and women are equal now. Raising a family is no longer the sole responsibility of men. If you choose to work, I will ask my parents to help take care of the child, and you can take over when you get off work.

If you are willing to stay at home and take care of the child, I will also give you 2,000 yuan for living expenses every month, and won't let you live without support.

I usually have a relatively hard - working job, so please take care of more household chores.

I have a cleanliness fetish, and I hope the home can be kept clean and tidy at all times.

Besides, it's not easy for my parents to raise me. They are old now and deserve some comfort. You should be more considerate of them.

Also, your father doesn't have a job, and your younger brother is still young. I know that you used to spend your salary on your family.

However, after getting married, I hope you will focus more on our family...

Rao usually has a good temper, but at this moment, he is also very angry.

What kind of excellent man is this?

If we both earn money to support the family, the housework should be shared equally. Are you expecting me to drink the northwest wind because your parents raised you with difficulty?

Is he out of his mind? Does he want to take advantage of everything?

She said calmly but firmly, "I'm sorry. We are not suitable."

"I think we are quite suitable. Oh, no, Miss Shen, you won't think that I'm not good enough for you, right? My salary is higher than yours, and I have a car and an apartment." The man frowned and looked at Shen Modi again. She is really beautiful. He said, "Miss Shen, you are indeed very beautiful. But you know, a woman's youth is very short - lived. Smart women will find a man with potential to marry while they still have their charm..."

"Humph..." There came a sneer from the next table.

It attracted the attention of Shen Modi and her blind - date.

Shen Modi's blind - date looked over unhappily.

Then he saw a handsome man wearing a white hoodie. The man said to his blind - date, "I'm indeed 28 years old and only have a small three - bedroom apartment and an ordinary scooter. But I just graduated at 26 and have only worked for two years. So, I don't agree with what Miss Wu said. Having no savings at 28 doesn't mean there is a problem with personal ability."

Besides, I have a monthly salary of ten thousand yuan, and Miss Wu has a monthly salary of three thousand yuan. I don't think there is a problem with the arrangement of the matchmaking agency either.

It doesn't matter if Miss Wu looks down on me. I don't look up to Miss Wu either.

With that, the man stood up, turned around, and looked at Shen Modi's blind - date with a seemingly sarcastic smile. His eyes fell on his hair, and he pointed deliberately, saying, "A woman's youth is short - lived, and a man's youth doesn't last long either. In a few years, baldness, obesity, and greasiness will all appear."

He deliberately emphasized the word "baldness".

After speaking, he walked up to Shen Modi, extended his hand, and greeted her, "Hello, my name is Huo Mingze. How about it? Shall we go on a blind - date together?"

After my wife and I get married, our salaries will be pooled together. I don't smoke, drink, or gamble. I am clean - living. After work, I go home to do housework. Whether or not to have children is up to you. Your parents will be my parents.

Every word was slapping Shen Modi's blind - date in the face.

"Who are you?" Shen Modi's blind - date was furious and couldn't wait to argue with Huo Mingze.

"On a blind - date," Huo Mingze said.

"Miss Shen is on a blind - date with me," Shen Modi's blind - date thought Huo Mingze was being extremely unreasonable.

Huo Mingze completely ignored him and handed a copy of his personal information to Shen Modi, saying, "This is my information. Otherwise, shall we change to another place to sit for a while?"

When Shen Modi saw the personal information in Huo Mingze's hand and realized that they were from the same matchmaking agency, and then thought of the words he and her blind - date had just said, she had a pretty good idea in her mind.

It was equivalent to them both not finding suitable partners on their respective blind - dates. She met a strange man, and he met a gold - digger.

In fact, chatting is also okay. Her purpose of going on a blind date is to quickly find someone with decent character and similar conditions in all aspects to marry.

Nodding, she said, "Okay."

"Miss Shen, isn't it a bit impolite of you to do this? We are on a blind date. If you are not satisfied with the betrothal gifts, we can discuss it again. If it really doesn't work, we can add your name to the house deed, but you have to pay the down payment." Her blind - date said reluctantly.

"No, I don't plan to have children after marriage." Shen Modi refused.

When they were about to reach the counter, the blind - date man shouted from behind, "Since the blind date didn't work out, I have no reason to pay for your coffee."

"I didn't plan to let you pay either," Shen Modi turned her head and said politely, ready to scan the code at the counter.

Huo Mingze had already scanned the code first and said, "I'll pay!"

After paying, he said to Shen Modi, "Let's go."
