The blind date candidate was quite handsome, with regular features, sharp eyebrows and sharp eyes. He was wearing a military uniform and sitting there upright.

This reminded Du Xiang of Jing Luo, and her attitude improved a little. She took the initiative to introduce herself, "Hello, I'm Du Xiang, your blind date."

The man took off his military cap, nodded politely to her, and gave her a stiff smile, as if he was not very good at smiling like that.

"Hello, my name is Han Wei."

Du Xiang was somewhat curious, "Are you a soldier?"

Han Wei nodded, "I just retired last month and currently work in the Veterans Resettlement Office."

Du Xiang said, "It's pretty good."

The scene was a little quiet for a moment. Han Wei clenched his hands. Thinking of the advice given by his colleagues before he came, he took the initiative to speak, "I am a local of Beicheng. My father is a retired soldier, and my mother is a middle school teacher who has not yet reached retirement age. Their combined pensions will be about 20,000 yuan. They both have supplementary medical insurance. The family has prepared a motorhome, which was bought in full. So I'm sorry that I can't agree to add my name. The betrothal gift and the three golds are all in accordance with the woman's requirements. I have just started working and my salary is relatively low, only 7,000 yuan a month. It is impossible for me to make a fortune in the future if I am a civil servant. If you are willing, I can give you all the money for safekeeping."

Du Xiang was stunned. She had no experience in blind dates. She didn't know that nowadays on blind dates, the first thing to do is to state your financial conditions first, and then talk about further topics if you are suitable.

She thought blind dates were just about making more friends.

Since the other party was so serious, Du Xiang said seriously, "Mr. Han, I'm sorry. The main reason I came here today was because my aunt insisted that I meet you. But I personally object to this kind of blind date. I'm sorry to waste your time today."

Han Wei was stunned, "Are you dissatisfied with me?"

Du Xiang shook her head. "No, you are a very good person. Although serving the people is just an empty phrase most of the time, I respect people who serve the people."

Han Wei's eyes flashed with admiration, "I didn't expect Miss Du to be so aware."

Du Xiang smiled and said, "My boyfriend is probably from the same group as you guys. I'm influenced by him."

Han Wei was stunned, "Ms. Du has a boyfriend?"

Du Xiang smiled and nodded, "Yes, he——"

As soon as Jing Luo entered the door, he saw Du Xiang sitting face to face and chatting with a man with a smile on her face.

Today is the weekend, and it's a rare opportunity for him to relax. Since he has a girlfriend, all his teammates are asking him to buy them coffee. Jing Luo thought Du Xiang also loved coffee, so he packed a cup for her at noon. He didn't expect to see this scene as soon as he entered the door.

Du Xiang was smiling happily and seemed to be having a good conversation with the man opposite her.

The man was also very handsome, with an air of decency in his every move. And looking at the clothes he was wearing, oh, he was a retired soldier.

The deputy captain next to him was still yelling, "Boss, hurry up and go in, why are you stopping here? Are you reluctant to leave? I'm telling you, if you want to escape, there's no way!"

Jing Luo pushed him away and walked towards Du Xiang.

The deputy captain wanted to pull him back, but was stopped by another teammate, who hesitated and said, "Deputy captain, don't you think the boss looks a little strange?"

The deputy captain then noticed the direction Jing Luo was heading and was horrified. "Could that woman be his girlfriend? What is he doing? Two-timing? Cheating? Caught in bed... in a shop? Isn't he said to be very conscious?"

Jing Luo walked all the way behind Du Xiang before stopping.

Du Xiang had a keen sense of perception and immediately noticed someone behind her. She turned around and saw that it was Jing Luo. She was stunned for a moment, "Jing Luo, why are you here?"

Jing Luo answered her question first, "I'm here to buy coffee—" Then he didn't even look at the man opposite him, but just asked Du Xiang, "What are you doing here?"

Du Xiang was speechless for a while before she said awkwardly, "I'm here for a blind date. My family arranged it. They insisted that I come to meet you."

Jing Luo's face turned pale, but he still smiled politely and nodded, "I see. Then you go ahead and do your work. Call me when you're done. I'm leaving first."

He did not reveal his identity from beginning to end and gave Du Xiang all the respect.

He smiled at Du Xiang, then turned and left.

Du Xiang looked at his back, feeling a little guilty for some reason, but she had made it clear just now, right? Her family arranged for her to come, and she just came to see him.

Did Jing Luo misunderstand something?

Han Wei smiled and said, "Was that your boyfriend just now?"

Du Xiang did not deny it, "Yes."

Han Wei had admiration in his eyes, "He's a good person."

Du Xiang nodded without thinking, "Of course, he is upright, responsible, motivated, respects other people's opinions, and can always solve problems in an orderly manner no matter what happens. Moreover, he treats me very well."

Han Wei smiled and nodded, "Ms. Du, to be honest, I had a very good first impression of you, but since you already have a boyfriend, I can only stop here. I can see that you like him very much. Don't miss such a good man. I think you should catch up with him and explain it to him now. He seems to have misunderstood."

Du Xiang paused, thanked Han Wei, then picked up her handbag and walked out.

But after coming out, even Jing Luo's shadow could not be seen.

(three)

When Du Xiang called, Jing Luo hung up the first call arrogantly, then the second one. When it came to the third call, he was afraid that Du Xiang's patience would run out and she would not call again after missing this one, so he picked up the phone without hesitation.

"Jingluo," Du Xiang's voice came over, "Where are you?"

Jing Luo curled his lips and said sarcastically, "You're already on a blind date, why do you still care where I am? No wonder you're not free on Saturday morning, it turns out you're going on a blind date, Du Xiang, you're still looking for a better job, you're not a decent person."

He felt very aggrieved. "Although it was because of my constant pestering that you agreed to give me a chance, this at least means that we are in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. You already have a boyfriend, so how can you still go on a blind date with another man? If you were the one who was in the truth, would you have dumped me and really gone with him?"

Du Xiang said helplessly, "Where are you? I'll go find you and talk to you when we meet."

Jing Luo snorted in grievance, "Don't look for me, I don't want to be a backup."

"Oh, okay." Du Xiang had already seen Jing Luo's figure across the street. This guy was sitting in a McDonald's and talking on the phone to her. He looked so lonely and pitiful. Du Xiang responded casually and decided to go straight to him.

Nothing could be made clear over the phone, he was obviously in a bad mood, and he wouldn't listen no matter how much she explained.

But Jing Luo misunderstood her meaning. He was stunned at first, then horrified, and quickly changed the subject, "Wait a minute, I didn't say that having a spare tire is completely unacceptable. Isn't negotiation a two-way street? You can bargain with me, and I might... agree to it in the end."

Du Xiang didn't hang up the phone, so she naturally heard what Jing Luo said. She was angry and amused. Just at this moment, she had walked behind Jing Luo and asked directly, "What do you want to promise? Promise to be my backup? Can you accept me having a new boyfriend, or even being my underground lover or mistress?"
