(A story by Xu Yan's Second Brother)
Three-Day Dating Trial Card Exclusive User X Workaholic Young Master Who Loves Showing Off
Wan Jiali's mother hoped she'd be as charming and clever as Scarlett, so she gave her that name. But Jiali's particular charm meant every relationship came with a three-day trial period.
Her family couldn't stand to watch any longer, so they arranged for her to meet the son of an old family friend.
On the day of the blind date, neither of the two intended dates showed up.
To escape her family's constant pressure, Wan Jiali moved out and met the workaholic guy next door.
After a few drinks, the two hit it off over their shared experience.
Wan Jiali: "Standing someone up on a blind date is no way for a man to act!"
Xu Jin: "That's what I think, too."
Wan Jiali: "We're both in the same boat!"
Xu Jin considered this. "How about we help each other out?"
From then on, the two joined forces against their families, deciding to use their alliance to escape the blind dates.
Full of confidence, Wan Jiali brought Xu Jin home. Before she could even introduce him, he said casually beside her:
"Auntie, I'm very sorry I didn't make it to our last meeting."
"Dad, I've brought your daughter-in-law home."
Wan Jiali: "???"
You sly dog, you were playing me?

Bonus Scene:
At Wan Jiali's first-birthday grab ceremony, she picked up a string of prayer beads and threw them at Xu Jin, who was only four years old.
Her family worried for ages that Wan Jiali might actually take up a life of religious practice.
That was, until Xu Jin showed up, grabbed her hand with a cocky grin, and said, "I'm here to put those rumors to rest."
