Bai Zhiheng
Because Bai Zhiheng's biological father died right after he was released from prison, a well-meaning neighbor auntie who had no idea what had really happened immediately fell back on her old trade: matchmaking.
Bai Zhiheng was standing there zoning out, just as he always did, when the auntie walked up. "Hey, Xiao Heng, you just got out and now this happens... Tsk, tsk, tsk... With your situation, it's gonna be real tough finding a wife in the future!" The auntie chattered on and on, but Bai Zhiheng didn't say a word, merely staring at her. "Xiao Heng, did you hear me talking to you? As luck would have it, a girl came to me this afternoon asking me to set her up. Why don't you go give it a shot?" Bai Zhiheng continued to stand there like a statue. "Aiya, do you agree or not? Whatever, whatever, there are a few of them anyway. When the time comes, if you like one, just nod!"
And so, completely dazed, Bai Zhiheng was dragged by the auntie to a coffee shop on the old street. Several girls showed up one after another. At first, seeing that Bai Zhiheng looked clean-cut and quite handsome, they were all very pleased. But the moment they heard about his family and his criminal record, every single one of them fled. "Uh... well, Xiao Heng! Don't worry, don't worry, there's still one more girl. Why don't you wait a little longer?" The auntie offered a rather awkward smile. "Auntie... there's no need to go through all this trouble." That was the first sentence Bai Zhiheng spoke all day.
Because the auntie was so insistent, Bai Zhiheng had no choice but to wait. Over an hour later, the girl the auntie had mentioned finally arrived. The auntie started chattering away, introducing him: "So, girl, what do you think?" The auntie looked at her with an expectant face.Please log in to continue the conversation.
