Miss Fish's First Love Diary

[The 22-year-old college senior Yu Cheng is being pressured to go on blind dates!]

Her mother said, “You didn’t date in high school, you didn’t date in college, and now you’re almost graduating and still haven’t dated anyone. What exactly are you planning to do?”

Her father said, “Little Fish, you have to pick out the good men early. There won’t be any decent ones left later.”

Before the blind date

Her father asked Yu Cheng what kind of man she liked.

Yu Cheng stood on the bed and swept her hand grandly through the air, like she was surveying her kingdom. She pointed at a row of posters of popular male stars on the wall. “Types like these, for example. I like them all…”

Yu Cheng was a die-hard fan, and she loved male idols most of all.

Her father gave a cold laugh and teased his daughter. “Hah. Come back to me when you’re as beautiful as a celestial maiden!”

After the blind date

Zhou Muyun asked Yu Cheng what kind of man she liked.

She smiled shyly and shook her head. “Well… I-I like someone like you.”

Her father: “…”

[About the confession]

Yu Cheng’s mother tricked her into going on a blind date. When Zhou Muyun found out, he grabbed her and pulled her away. “You’re not allowed to go on blind dates.”

Yu Cheng’s eyes widened in astonishment. “Don’t tell me you… actually like me?”

“Yes. I like you. I’m pursuing you.”

She sucked in a breath, her eyes full of disbelief.

Zhou Muyun cleared his throat and said cautiously, “Yu Cheng, I’ve noticed that you’ve been looking at me differently lately. Do you like me? Are you trying to pursue me?”

She said nothing.

His gaze was so gentle it seemed to drip with tenderness. “Yu Cheng, I’m easy to win over. Just say you like me, and I’ll be your boyfriend. How about it?”
