Translator: 549690339

To mess up a blind date like this, Zhu Daodao must be a real fool.

“There must be something wrong with his eyes.” Xiao Qian finally figured it out.

It’s busy at work now, and yet Daodao can come, which doesn’t make sense.

Combining Zhu Daodao’s abnormal behavior today, Xiao Qian guessed that he must have some eye problems.

“I’m sorry for the loss I caused you. I’ll pay for it.” Zhu Daodao said to the waiter.

He knew he shouldn’t come in this situation, but his father insisted on bringing him here, with mistakes all over the place.

“What’s wrong with your eyes?” Xiao Qian came over and asked.

“Conjunctivitis, everything looks foggy.”

“You’re nearsighted, right? Why didn’t you wear your glasses?”

“… I originally did, but just before we left, my mother forcibly removed them, saying she was afraid-” Zhu Daodao looked in the direction of Shuixian, who he mistakenly thought was the server.

“Afraid of scaring you.”

His eyes did indeed look a bit scary now.

The waiter was indeed scared, wondering if this salad-drenched customer was trying to take advantage of her. It’s not allowed in a legitimate business’.

“Pff!” Xiao Qian laughed.

Shuixian’s lips twitched, wanting to laugh but feeling a bit stifled.

“Why would you come out when you’re sick? Are you that eager to get married?

You seem to be 35 if not 30.”

Shuixian’s voice was a bit low, with a hoarse, magnetic quality. In his blurred vision, Zhu Daodao’s ability to distinguish voices increased significantly. He looked in her direction, trying hard to see his blind date’s face, but it was still fuzzy.

-I was born in the Year of the Tiger, I’m 27 years old, not thirty yet.”

“Ah, well, you seem to have aged a bit quickly.” Shuixian deliberately spoke sarcastically.

In fact, Zhu Daodao wasn’t as old as she said. He just looked a bit serious with his sunglasses on, and since their first impression wasn’t good, she was trying to get back at him for splashing water on her.

-Yeah, the ladies I dated before also said that…” He wasn’t surprised at all and realized that his tenth or eleventh blind date this year had failed again.

“I’ll buy you clothes and then take you home. I’m sorry for the inconvenience I caused you.”

Still a gentleman, but he almost bumped into a pillar again when he turned around. Seeing his clumsiness, Shuixian couldn’t help but laugh.

Xiao Qian frowned.

“What’s your zodiac?”

“Tiger.”

This zodiac seemed to be wrong… She seemed to remember that when she met her benefactor, he had just had his zodiac year?

When they exchanged letters, it seemed like they had specifically discussed it.

At that time, Xiao Qian didn’t have much money and wanted to give her benefactor a gift. She specifically asked his zodiac when buying clothes. It wasn’t a tiger.

Where did the mistake happen? Was it because he deliberately didn’t tell the truth to save her money, or was it because she…

… got the wrong person from the very beginning?

After getting off the elevator, Lily Tang tugged at Xiao Qian’s sleeve, not wanting to buy clothes and just wanting to leave once their car arrived.

But the driver probably didn’t expect such a swift and decisive blind date and had gone off somewhere in the car.

The wind penetrated her coat, making her shiver.

“Let’s take a taxi home.”

“Let’s go buy clothes.”

Both Shuixian and Xiao Qian spoke at the same time, with Shuixian looking at

Xiao Qian incredulously.

Friend, how could you betray me at this moment?

Xiao Qian dragged her arm, “It’s always good to learn more about young people.”

In fact, she didn’t want to miss this opportunity. She had to make sure whether Zhu Daodao was her benefactor or not.

In the elevator, Xiao Qian also exchanged phone numbers with Zhu Daodao.

This move puzzled Shuixian. Was Xiao Qian interested in Zhu Daodao?

Obviously not, then why did she take Zhu Daodao’s phone number?

Shuixian was dragged into the shopping mall by Xiao Qian, and Zhu Daodao’s attitude was clear. He wouldn’t feel comfortable until he took proper care of the girl he had messed up.

But with his current, near-blind state, going to the crowded shopping mall made Xiao Qian and Shuixian feel uneasy.

They worried that he would bump into people or mannequins.

Buying clothes at the fastest speed, Lily Tang told the salesperson that she wanted the one she was wearing. The saleswoman opened the receipt, and Shuixian wanted to take it.

Xiao Qian quickly snatched it away and handed it to Zhu Daodao.

“Gentlemen first.”

Shuixian didn’t want the clothes he bought, but Xiao Qian had done this already. Being pretentious wouldn’t be good, so she could only whisper to Xiao Qian.

“What are you doing? Are you sure he can make it to the cashier?

With Zhu Daodao’s current vision, he’s just a little better than a blind man.

“I’ll go with him.”

Xiao Qian just waited for this opportunity.

Leading Zhu Daodao to the cashier, Xiao Qian saw he was going to use cash and pointed to the cashier, saying,

“Card only, do you have a card?”

The cashier looked at Xiao Qian, wanting to say something but refrained.

Lady, the sign says “please present member card,” are you really okay with fooling a blind man with sunglasses like this?

Zhu Daodao changed to a card, not suspecting anything and swiped directly.

After signing, Xiao Qian kept looking at the card receipt.

It was indeed his handwriting.

Where… on earth… did it go wrong…

Coming out of the shopping mall, Xiao Qian was still deep in thought. In contrast, Zhu Daodao didn’t have much to say to Shuixian. They were several years apart, and neither of them was really interested in each other. They were forced to meet by their parents and knew they didn’t have much in common.

“I’m sorry for the trouble I caused you today.” Zhu Daodao said to Shuixian.

“It’s okay, just don’t go without glasses next time when your eyes have problems. It’s dangerous.”

As Shuixian had changed clothes and her anger subsided, she calmed down and thought they were both being forced to get married by their parents. It would be good to have mutual understanding.

“There’s another thing, I’d like to ask for your help,” Zhu Daodao said awkwardly, “Please tell your family you don’t like me; otherwise, my mother will certainly…”

“Alright, I’ll handle it. Why is your family so eager for you to get married, though?”

In order to leave a good impression on the girl’s side, they didn’t let him wear glasses. They must be so eager. And from what she understood, he had failed many blind dates before.

-My father had a checkup before the new year, and they found a tumor here, that’s why they pushed me to get married.”

Zhu Daodao pointed to his stomach, and Xiao Qian came out of her thoughts and couldn’t help asking.

“So, is that why you wrote on the wish list that you hope your family stays healthy?”

Back then, she saw two similar list, one was for the lover, and the other was for the family. Xiao Qian wanted to confirm which one Zhu Daodao had written on. “Yes, how did you know?” Zhu Daodao asked puzzledly.

He just wrote the wish list casually and didn’t expect it to work.

Xiao Qian refused to answer. She was thinking quickly again; the wish list was his, which meant… he wasn’t her benefactor.

“If your family is in such a hurry for you to get married, why aren’t you in a hurry? You seem to have good prospects.” Shuixian wondered..
