Yes, someone had introduced a blind date prospect to Zhao Tianhe.
But Zhao Tianhe hadn’t fixed a time for it yet.
"Third Brother, I’m not a local from Capital City, is that going to be a problem?" Though Zhao Tianhe was somewhat carefree, deep down he still harbored some insecurities.
"Disdain what? Disdain you for having a job, or disdain you for having an apartment? Or is it disdain for your lack of ambition?"
Zhao Tianlei knew that it would be difficult to change their inferiority complex overnight.
"I have a job, I have an apartment, I have ambition, I even attend night school."
Seeing that he had a rebuttal, Zhao Tianlei understood that he had become somewhat more confident.
"Since you’re quite a good catch yourself, why are you afraid of going on blind dates? You could also look for someone on your own, like little sister did, couldn’t you?"
If it weren’t for the fact that they were brothers who grew up together, Zhao Tianlei really wouldn’t want to get involved.
If he could find someone on his own, would he still be single to this day?
The next day, Zhao Tianhe went on the blind date.
Everyone at home knew about it.
"Hello, you must be Comrade Zhao, introduced by Auntie Wang, right?"
Zhao Tianhe was waiting at a teahouse for his blind date to show up.
Suddenly, a female comrade appeared before him.
When Zhao Tianhe got a clear look at the woman who had arrived, he was startled. This female comrade was so pretty. She might be slightly less attractive compared to his sister-in-law, but not by much.
He had heard from Auntie Wang that the lady was especially good-looking.
In an instant, Zhao Tianhe felt that he might not be good enough for her.
"Hello, Comrade Zhao, I’m Wang Dongmei."
Zhao Tianhe immediately invited her to sit down.
"Hello, Comrade Wang, let me introduce myself."
Wang Dongmei glanced at Zhao Tianhe. This male comrade wasn’t very tall, was of average appearance, had a decent job, and on top of that, he wasn’t a Capital City local.
She had heard that he had relatives in Capital City who owned a store, and he helped out there.
Of course, the details would need to come from him.
"I’m twenty-five years old, not a local from Capital City, work at an electronics store, have one older brother, one older sister, and a younger sister. I’ve borrowed money to buy a small yard in Capital City, and I’m still attending night school. Comrade Wang, your turn to share."
Twenty-five years old?
That’s not a young age.
Not a local from Capital City.
It seemed Auntie hadn’t lied.
Works at an electronics store.
He had borrowed money to buy a house in Capital City himself?
As for attending night school, this man still going to night school, he seemed quite ambitious.
Just too ordinary-looking.
"I have two older brothers, and a younger sister below me. I’m currently working in a textile factory, I graduated from high school, and am twenty-two years old this year."
When Auntie Wang had first mentioned the blind date, she briefly told him about the lady’s circumstances.
He had been told that she was beautiful, just a bit older than average.
This age isn’t that old, is it?
"If you want to marry me, you must prepare a dowry of five hundred, ’three turns and a sound,’ and we must get married within a month."
Zhao Tianhe hadn’t expected that after just introducing themselves, this female comrade would bring up the matter of the dowry.
Wang Dongmei stared at him for a few moments, realizing that he hadn’t responded for quite a while. She was puzzled; was the dowry too high?
"Comrade Wang, we’ve just met, isn’t discussing the dowry a bit too soon?"
Zhao Tianhe still thought it was too quick.
He had imagined blind dating to involve seeing each other several times before broaching the topic of dowry, right?
