Chapter 773: Matchmaker Wang Makes Jia Zhangshi Rely on the Li Family

~4 min read 745 words

"You." Jia Zhangshi was completely dumbfounded.

She had originally thought this Li Mei was willful and spoiled, but she didn't expect her to be a fan girl who would even take the initiative to mention the blind date. No wonder Jia Dongxu would refuse!

Thinking of this, Jia Zhangshi hurriedly breathed a sigh of relief, then gave Jia Dongxu a look, signaling him to quickly say a few nice words to coax the young lady, so as not to annoy her.

Jia Dongxu shook his head and turned to leave.

How could Li Mei let him go? She hurriedly chased after him and blocked Jia Dongxu, asking: "What are you doing? Didn't you just say you were willing to go on a blind date with me? I was even prepared to bring my boyfriend over, and now you want to slip away? What's the meaning of this? Are you playing with me?"

Jia Dongxu glanced at her indifferently and said: "Are you sure you want to go on a blind date with me? I'll say the ugly things first: I'm dirt poor, I have no money, no house, no car, and I can't even afford the bride price."

"Tch!" Li Mei gave a disdainful smile: "It doesn't matter! I live in the courtyard next to yours, don't I know that?"

Jia Dongxu was startled upon hearing this and blurted out: "Then how do you know I have no house or car?" Li Mei glanced around and said: "Well, do I even need to guess with this Sihe Academy? Except for my house, all the other units in this building are rented out! ~"

Jia Dongxu suddenly had a moment of realization.

Thinking of this, Jia Dongxu couldn't help but sigh: "I also know that Li Shen's family is well-off. Your name is Li Mei, right? I don't think we are very suitable. Let's stop here for today." After saying this, he walked away.

Seeing this scene, Li Mei couldn't help but be stunned.

After Jia Dongxu left, Jia Zhang hurriedly grabbed Li Mei: "Xiao Mei, don't take it to heart. I don't know what's wrong with Dongxu today. I'll talk to him when I get back, and you two can have a good chat another day."

Li Mei couldn't help but mutter: "What is this? He's such an old antique, yet he's still being picky. I didn't force him to marry me; it was your family who said you wanted a blind date. Hmph." After saying this, she turned and left.

Watching Li Mei leave, Jia Zhangshi shook her head helplessly and complained in a low voice to Matchmaker Wang, who had just arrived: "Look, I told you long ago to stop meddling in other people's business, but you wouldn't listen. Tell me, what's wrong with my Dongxu today?"

Hearing this, Matchmaker Wang gave a bitter smile and said: "Aunt Jia, I know, but think about it: if we really succeeded in playing matchmaker for Dongxu and Li Mei, then Dongxu would be the son-in-law of the Li family. Are you still afraid you won't be able to make it in the Sihe Academy in the future?"

·· Begging for flowers ·

"That's easy for you to say, that's just what you think," Jia Zhang retorted.

"In our Sihe Academy, whose life is better than the Li family's? Let's not talk about the First Elder and Second Elder. Even if we don't use Dongxu to get rich, we can slowly outlive those people in the future," Jia Dahai advised.

"Fine, then I'll go find Li Shen next door again tomorrow and explain things clearly to her, so she doesn't keep thinking about this all day," Jia Zhang said, nodding.

The next day, Jia Zhang was still waiting at Li Shen's door early in the morning.

Sure enough, as expected yesterday, this time Li Shen's family didn't make excuses like last time, and their attitude was even more enthusiastic.

Seeing this, Jia Zhang couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

But after Jia Zhang stated the purpose of her visit, Li Shen immediately fell silent, her brows slightly furrowed.

Jia Zhang became anxious and said: "What? Sister-in-law, are you not satisfied?"

"Sigh! It's not that I look down on your family, it's just that this matter..." Li Shen hesitated.

"If you have any concerns, just say them. As long as it can be achieved, any price is fine," Jia Zhang said, patting her chest. ===== CHAPTER 775 =====
