The year Xia Miao graduated from graduate school, her family started pressuring her to get married. Xia Miao refused to go on a blind date.
Her brother said, "This time, your blind date looks a little like the person you have a crush on."
Those words, "a little like," made Xia Miao's heart itch with curiosity. Unable to resist, she went after all. When she entered the restaurant, she glanced over casually and froze. He wore a silver suit and was breathtakingly handsome. He didn't just look a little like him, he could have been his twin!
The man was silent for a moment, then handed her a check. "My family is rushing me. If you have time, would you pretend to be my girlfriend? We can talk about the fee."
His face was so striking that Xia Miao took the check in a daze.
Later, he handed her a black card. "Grandma is rushing me. How about we get our marriage certificate tomorrow?"
Staring at his impossibly handsome face, Xia Miao's heart pounded. Hesitating for even a second would be disrespectful to a face-con.
Three months later, he kissed her with a dark expression and demanded, "How much do I look like him? Thirty percent? Or fifty?"
Xia Miao's heart skipped a beat.
After that, "the white moonlight" became practically taboo between them. Neither of them could bring him up without making her husband scowl. That is, until one day, he saw a photo of her white moonlight in her other wallet with his own eyes.
Xia Miao felt a little timid. "I-I really just forgot to take it out."
He stared at the photo for a long time. Then his demeanor suddenly changed. He looked even more self-righteous than usual, and his tone held a hint of delight. "You really like him that much?"
Xia Miao was getting annoyed. "Are you ever going to let this go? Am I only allowed to like one person?"
His expression darkened again. Through gritted teeth, he said, "Xia Miao, are you blind?"

His bad friend: You edited it pretty convincingly.
When Grandma heard, she joined in with some advice: "A grown man should learn to be generous. Who didn't have a crush on some young fellow when they were young?"
Lu Yu: ...
