Chapter 2: Blind Date (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Su Jin smiled lightly.

When women were looking for husbands now, owning a car and a house had become the standard, even in such a small town. Which girl wouldn’t want to marry a man with a good financial background and live comfortably?

Otherwise, why would people say that a marriage is a woman’s second reincarnation?

No one had the ability to choose for the first reincarnation, so it was necessary to choose very carefully for the second one. If one chose wrongly, they would be ruined for life.

However, Su Jin’s heart had long died. The current her only went on a blind date to give her mother a peace of mind.

“No demands.”

She uttered two words clearly.

The faint aroma of coffee wafted in the air as the unfamiliar man and woman chatted casually.

After a while, Su Jin looked at her watch.

“Mr. Jin, we’ve already discussed everything we need to know. If you think we’re suitable, I’d like to register our marriage tomorrow.”

Jin Hengyuan raised an eyebrow, but he did not smile. “Miss Su, you’re in such a hurry to get married. Aren’t you afraid that I’m a swindler?”

Su Jin smiled. “Granny Wang has always been picky. The person she introduced must be pretty good.”

“Miss Su, do you trust Granny Wang that much?”

“I do. Also, my mother has late-stage liver cancer. She wants to see me find a good home before she leaves. I can’t afford to waste time.”

Generally speaking, no one would agree to a marriage so hastily.

Su Jin thought that he would reject her. This way, she would be able to take advantage of the current situation and give a proper excuse to Granny Wang.

“Not tomorrow. I’m going on a business trip tomorrow. I’ll be out of town for the next few days. Let’s go this afternoon then.”

Jin Hengyuan looked at the clock on his phone.

“If you don’t mind, I’ll go back now and get my credentials. I’ll meet you at the Civil Affairs Bureau at two-thirty.”

Su Jin, “…”

Su Jin’s blind date was introduced by a person named Granny Wang. She was a lonely old woman in a nursing home without any children. She was very aloof and did not like to bother with others. She usually liked to read or listen to the radio.

Su Jin got to know her when she went to do volunteer work. It had been many years, and the old lady was only close to her.

Previously, the old lady had never told her that she wanted to introduce someone to her. Later on, her adoptive mother found out that she had liver cancer and hoped that Su Jin could find someone as soon as possible. She was anxious and looked at a few people, but none of them caught her eye.

Who knew where the old lady heard it from and found out that Su Jin was in a hurry to get married. She got someone to call her over and said…

“I do have a candidate here. Although he’s a little older than you, he has a good personality. He works in Shanghai and seems to be running errands for some company. He’s a local and is a handsome lad. His character and capability aren’t bad. I think that the two of you are quite compatible. Do you want to take a look?”

That was last Saturday.

She thought about it and realized that it was rare to find someone whom the old lady liked so much, so she agreed.

Unexpectedly, with one date, this matter actually turned out to be a success.
