Blind date market, met ex-husband by chance!
Under such circumstances, it was truly hard to define whether she was looking for a scapegoat father for her child.
But one thing was certain: she was very brave.
After a moment of silence, Lin Yuan let out a heavy sigh and said with a serious expression, "Your situation is too special. You're getting remarried with a child and can't have more children in the future. Most men would find that difficult to accept."
"I can only say I'll do my best to help you look, but I can't guarantee I'll find you a suitable match."
Hearing that Lin Yuan was willing to help, the beautiful woman quickly wiped away her tears and nodded excitedly, "Thank you, thank you!"
"No matter if it succeeds or not, I will buy a house from you."
Lin Yuan did not feel much joy hearing this; instead, he smiled bitterly and shook his head, his brows tightly furrowed.
How could this hot potato be so easily resolved?
A matchmaking agency definitely wouldn't work.
Not to mention the uneven quality there, even if there were good ones, a matchmaking agency wouldn't take such a case; wouldn't that ruin their reputation?
He couldn't possibly go around asking people one by one on the street; that would be too embarrassing.
After much deliberation, Lin Yuan decided to first take the beautiful woman to the blind date market in West Sea City to see if there was anyone suitable.
The few of them immediately agreed, hailed a taxi outside, and headed to the blind date market in West Sea City.
Before leaving, he glanced at the gifts that had been sent; they were a jumble of everything.
Lin Yuan racked his brain but still couldn't figure out who sent them.
Twenty minutes later, the three arrived at a very large plaza.
The place was bustling with people coming and going, looking as lively as a wet market.
On the trees and light poles here, long thin red strings were tied, but these strings were not for drying clothes; instead, they held numerous marriage advertisements.
Each piece of paper recorded the information of the person seeking a match.
[Marriage Proposal: Beloved daughter, 1.63m tall, intellectual, annual salary 200,000, requires a house, a car, and local hukou.]
In addition to the marriage advertisements on the red strings, there were also several large public notice boards around.
They were also covered with marriage advertisements.
Lin Yuan scanned the scene; there were very few young people, mostly middle-aged aunts and uncles.
Some areas had groups of peopleSurrounded, discussing intensely, like a negotiation for a flesh trade.
And the flyers in their hands were the goods for bargaining.
Netizens in the live stream couldn't quite handle the current situation.

— [This scene is a bit scary. The blind date market is even livelier than a wet market. Seeing those aunts and uncles discussing so intensely, one might think they're haggling over vegetables. Is this actually treating children as goods for trade?]
— [This place should be called a talent market, and a high-end one at that, because low-end ones aren't qualified to seek marriage here. The starting point is having a house, a car, and savings. Here, an annual income of 500,000 is not as stable as a Nurse's job.]
— [These days, men outnumber women. In the eyes of those aunts, a man with an annual income of 1,000,000 is nothing. If you ask her about her daughter, she'll proudly tell you her monthly income is 3,000, but it's very stable!]
— [Many people in the live stream are discussing the bride price issue, saying that our Xijiang's bride price is high, but the dowry is only three quilts. That's too outrageous. I want to ask, who is spreading rumors? We here emphasize double the dowry; it's six quilts, okay!]
Lin Yuan walked through the plaza with the beautiful woman and the Photographer.
Before long, aunts came up to inquire about the situation, but they all exclusively asked about the beautiful woman.
Her exquisite looks and temperament made those aunts' eyes go wide.
However, when they heard the words "pregnant," they all ran faster than rabbits.
During this time, a few people also came to ask about Lin Yuan's situation.
But when they heard that his job was a real estate agent, they all shook their heads and left with disdain.
It was funny to think about.
If they knew Lin Yuan earned over 1,000,000 in three days and had a good chance of having assets worth hundreds of millions in half a year, one wondered what they would think then.
The few of them walked around the plaza and also looked at many marriage advertisements.
But clearly, none were suitable.
This made Lin Yuan extremely disappointed.
The beautiful woman also knew her situation was special and that she had tried her best. Instead of showing dejection, she smiled and comforted him, "It's okay if we can't find anyone. This is my fate. You've truly gone to a lot of trouble today. I'm a bit tired and want to go back and rest. Can I contact you in a few days to take me to see houses?"
Lin Yuan looked at the beautiful woman, was silent for a moment, and finally could only nod helplessly, "Alright, I'll take you back to rest."
However, just at this moment.
As expected, an accident occurred.
A large group of people suddenly walked in through the plaza's entrance. A man and a woman were at the very front, holding a child, followed by a group of people in formal attire with work badges.
They looked like staff from the blind date plaza.
The beautiful woman's pupils suddenly constricted the moment she saw the newcomers, and her whole body trembled, freezing in place.
Lin Yuan immediately noticed her unusual behavior, turned to look at the group of people, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Do you know them?"
The next second, the beautiful woman smiled bitterly and nodded, "The man holding the child... is my ex-husband... I suddenly remembered that this blind date market is owned by his family."
Holy cow!
Hearing this, Lin Yuan inwardly cursed, "This is too much of a coincidence."
He wished he hadn't come to this place.
How awkward would it be if they ran into each other later?
But reality often is so helpless; speak of the devil, and he shall appear.
The man holding the child inadvertently glanced over at Lin Yuan's side and froze on the spot.
Immediately after, he put down the child and strode over.
He started greeting from afar, "Oh, isn't this my ex-wife? Why are you here? Could it be you're here for a blind date?"
The beautiful woman looked at the man with disgust in her eyes, then looked at the woman and child behind him, her expression slightly forlorn as she lowered her head, completely ignoring her ex-husband.
But the more she did this, the more triumphant her ex-husband became.
He chuckled and clapped his hands at the small child next to him, "Come, Daddy will hold you! Say hello loudly to Auntie, greet her!"
The little baby looked only about a year old and couldn't speak at all.
The beautiful woman also knew that these words were purely meant to provoke her, subtly hinting that she couldn't have children.
If it were before, she would have cursed back.
But now, she couldn't get angry. For the sake of her child, she thought it was better to avoid trouble, so she completely ignored her ex-husband and turned to Lin Yuan, "Let's go!"
"Okay!" Lin Yuan also nodded.
However, their act of ignoring her ex-husband completely enraged him.
He glared fiercely at Lin Yuan and sneered, "Oh, so you found a lover, and a pretty boy at that. You see me, your senior, and don't even bother to say hello. How impolite. The money you're spending was given by me."
As soon as he said this.
The Photographer looked at him as if he were an idiot.
The netizens in the live stream all cheered excitedly.
This guy had no sense; out of all the people to provoke, he just had to provoke Lin Yuan.
Isn't that like a lantern in a toilet—seeking death?
Lin Yuan, who was about to leave, was also stunned when he heard the ex-husband's words.
What the heck!
What does that have to do with me?
You two divorced and are mocking each other; I'm not getting involved.
But you're even cursing me?
This is something an uncle can endure, but an aunt can't!
