Lu Cheng, the third son of the Lu family, is 30 years old. He has dated three girlfriends to no avail and is currently unmarried.

The elders of the Lu family gradually couldn't bear it anymore and began to arrange for Lu Cheng to choose a matchmaker.

The elder brother Lu Sheng was the first to test the situation and asked the younger brother Lu Cheng about his requirements in choosing a mate.

Lu Cheng said his ideal type of wife with a calm face:

First, be virtuous and virtuous.

Second, behave yourself.

Third, they must be of the same age.

The three simple requirements are not harsh or excessive. Logically speaking, with Lu Cheng's appearance and character, it is impossible for him to still be unmarried. When asked the reason, he always simply said that the woman's mind is not disciplined enough.

The reason is given away.

Lu Sheng guessed Lu Cheng's criteria for choosing a wife and discussed the "life-long affairs" of his third brother with the elders of the Lu family.

After a round of decisions, the elders left the two criteria of "virtuous, virtuous, and well-behaved". As for the third criterion of "similar age," they had reservations.

Lu Cheng is not young anymore, he is already 30 years old. If he wants to find a wife of the same age, wouldn't he want a 9-year-old woman? To be honest, she is a bit old.

The first blind date was with Lu Cheng's father's old friend's daughter, a junior at school: Ding Ran.

After Lu Sheng told Lu Cheng about the blind date, he readily agreed.

For him, getting married is just a task that must be completed. It must be done sooner or later. Who is it? Do you know it? He doesn't care.

Qiao Ran and Lu Cheng met for the first time on this blind date:

The sun was bright, the temperature was 38 degrees, and the ground was steaming and burning.

The blind date was scheduled for four in the afternoon. Lu Cheng used his morning time to drive to his alma mater to catch up with old professors.

The car suddenly broke down on the road.

The car without air conditioning was extremely hot and stuffy. Lu Cheng got out of the car decisively and called the 4S store to ask them to send someone to tow the car for repairs.

I took the bus to the nearest and only station nearby.

There is only one bus line at the station, which is dedicated to the university town, which is in line with Lu Cheng's destination.

He caught a glimpse of a bus approaching from a distance. When he took out his wallet and was about to get some change, he frowned and realized that he hadn't taken a bus in eight years.

In the wallet, there was only a stack of hundred-dollar bills, gold cards, silver cards, ID cards, and no change.

This place is in a relatively remote location, and there are no stores where you can buy things or get change. Taxis often don't come, and the sun is bad.

After thinking for a while, Lu Cheng generously took out a hundred-dollar bill and followed a few college students to get on the bus.

Just as the money was about to be put into the cash box, a woman's delicate voice came - "Wow, sir, you spend 100 yuan to take the bus?"

Lu Cheng looked around and saw a pretty girl with a half-long ponytail, hot shorts and a small vest. She had a lively temperament and she should be a college student.

"I don't have any change." Lu Cheng said calmly.

"That's it." The girl lowered her head and rummaged through her bag. There was no change of 98 yuan, but she found two coins.

She tossed her hand and put the two coins into the cash box with two "bang" sounds.

"I'll pay the two yuan for you," the girl said with a smile.

Lu Cheng's face was calm, but his brows were slightly furrowed.

He was not used to saying "thank you" to people casually, even if this girl really helped him.

Just when Lu Cheng was thinking about whether to say "thank you", the girl turned around and walked into the back of the bus. Her friends who were traveling with her were sitting together, talking and laughing.

It seemed that he had no intention of asking for thanks from him.

Lu Cheng's heart felt even more uncomfortable at the moment.

Until now, he has never owed anyone a favor, only this girl.

Forget it, whatever, if we meet again by chance, he will definitely pay her back ten times the two dollars.

The bus travels three stops and arrives at University Town.

Lu Cheng got out of the car and searched subconsciously. Finally, he landed on the girl who had helped him. She turned her back to him and walked into the university with her friends. Her playful ponytail swayed, she was slim and had a bright complexion.

White, exposed, two legs exposed to the sun, very white, very straight...

Lu Cheng stopped his reverie, silently looked away, walked into the university, and walked in the opposite direction to the girl, looking for his former tutor.

The old professor had not seen Lu Cheng for many years. When he saw him coming, he immediately welcomed him warmly. This was his most proud student back then.

The former Lu Cheng also stayed at this university and was also a man of the hour.

He is extremely low-key, but he is versatile. He is extremely gentle with others, and he is no less impressive when it comes to playing basketball. He usually dresses like a harmless nobleman, but he rolls up his sleeves and fights harder than anyone else.

In short, Lu Cheng is a man who is difficult to see through.

No one knew what he was thinking, and the old professor didn't understand what kind of person his student was.

An hour later.

After reminiscing with the old professor, Lu Cheng looked at his watch. It was about the same time. He had to go on a blind date in the afternoon, so he said goodbye to the old professor.

Walking out of the teaching building, the lively and youthful university town did not make Lu Cheng reminisce about the past. On the contrary, it made him a little restless.

He is not a lively person. Standing here, he can't help but feel that he is really old. It's time to get married and settle down.

Lu Cheng found an area where he could smoke in the university town, took a lighter and a cigarette case, took out a cigarette, and was about to light it up——

Whispering carefully, there are men and women.

"I don't like men who smoke." The female voice said firmly.

Lu Cheng was about to light a cigarette when he paused and looked at the young man and woman at the corner. He still remembered the pretty girl. At this time, she raised her charming neck and looked at the big boy in front of her - very typical

occasion of confession.

Lu Cheng put back his cigarette, his eyes gradually darkened and he remained calm.

"If you smoke, I can change it." The boy's voice was not firm.

"You don't need to change. Even if you change, I still don't like you." After saying that, the girl turned around and left. Obviously, she did not accept the boy's confession.

"Of course, wait for me." The boy chased after him.

Lu Cheng slowly walked out from the shadows, his elegant face filled with... interest.

He murmured: "Of course."

It turns out that the girl's name is Ranran.

She originally thought that if we were to meet again, he would repay her ten times her money, but she didn't expect that he and her would meet again so soon.

However, he was never able to repay the money.

After leaving the university town, Lu Cheng hailed a taxi, got in, informed the hotel where he was going to go on a blind date, and headed to his destination.

***

Yunding Pavilion Hotel.

Lu Cheng frowned and looked at his watch for the third time. The other party was already more than ten minutes late. He didn't like women who had no rules and were not punctual.

At the twenty-minute mark, Lu Cheng had lost his patience to wait any longer. He picked up the cup and took a sip of water. When he was about to pay and leave, a beautiful figure came into his sight.

The girl is still wearing the same clothes as before, with a light pink bag hanging diagonally on her shoulder.

She ran all the way, bounced a little, and came to him. Then, she pulled out the chair, sat down by herself, and drank a glass of lemon soda before she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hello, I'm Qiao Ran." Lu Cheng didn't care to listen, his eyes locked on the girl.

"I...I'm here for Ding Ran. She, um, she's in college and has a boyfriend." The girl's moist lips opened and closed, and Lu Cheng looked a little lost in thought.

"She is timid and doesn't dare to come and tell you in person. So, I'll come here on her behalf and let you know. Forget about this blind date. What age is this? It's not very reliable to use this to find a wife.

"

Qiao Ran talked on the phone for a long time, but Lu Cheng didn't say a word, still looking at her intently, unfathomably.

"Um... have you drank this glass of water?" Qiao Ran pointed to Lu Cheng's glass of lemon soda on the table.

"No." Lu Cheng opened his eyes and told lies.

"Then can I drink?" Qiao Ran smiled brightly.

She just got out of the car and ran all the way over. She was hot and thirsty. How could a glass of water be enough for her to drink?

"Okay." Lu Cheng handed the water he drank to Qiao Ran in a very "demeanor" manner.

Qiao Ran was always straightforward and not suspicious. He took it over and drank it in a few sips. However, he didn't notice Lu Cheng's twinkling eyes and raised lips.

Putting down the water glass, Qiao Ran looked at Lu Cheng, wanting to avoid him: "That..."

Lu Cheng suddenly spoke up: "Lu Cheng, my name."
