Jian Qing's family pressured her into a blind date. The man was fair-skinned and polite, and after spending a few days together, she thought he seemed acceptable for now.
Then they went to see a movie. On the way back, they ran into a drunk trying to rob them.
At the critical moment, her blind date, Cheng Chuo, tossed her his bag and ran for his life. He even lost a shoe, but didn't stop to pick it up.
"..."
Jian Qing was stunned. Even the drunk sobered up in fright.
Jian Qing was incredibly glad they had taken things slowly. They hadn't even held hands yet.
She calmly pulled out her phone and blocked him on WeChat on the spot.
She thought they would never see each other again. But Cheng Chuo clearly had no idea when to give up. Every few days, he would either send her flowers or show up to take her to and from work, hoping to make things between them the way they were before.
Even after Jian Qing moved, he doggedly tracked her down.
Cheng Chuo stood outside her door, holding flowers. "Qingqing, give me one more chance."
Jian Qing cut straight to the point, expressionless. "Sorry, I'm seeing someone."
He was shocked and heartbroken. "Who is it?"
"My next-door neighbor."
As soon as she said it, the door across the hall opened.
Her boss, her high school classmate, and the one person who had been her nemesis all her life, Yi Yunshao, stepped out, fastening the cuff of his shirt. He paused when he saw the two of them facing off.
"!" Jian Qing shot her blind date a quick glance. In a split second, she leaned against Yi Yunshao and cooed, "Darling~"
The elegant man: "?"

One day, Cheng Chuo thought of Jian Qing, whom he hadn't seen in a long time. He made a new account and added her on WeChat.
[Jian Qing, are you there?]
Yi Yunshao looked at Jian Qing, who was admiring their marriage certificate, and replied for her: [She's getting married.]
[Qingqing, you're still so funny. The more you act like this, the harder it is for me to forget you.]
Yi Yunshao: [Who are you?]
[Cheng Chuo, your ex-boyfriend.]
Yi Yunshao glanced at Jian Qing and tapped the voice-message button. "Sorry, I'm her current husband. Is there anything else?"
[No.]
