The bustling city is lively all night long. Emily lazily walks from her house to the narrow street ahead, finally stopping at the entrance of a supermarket. The supermarket is located very close to her home, and being a reserved and ordinary girl, Emily always buys food here and is very fond of this place. But now, as she looks at the large signboard of the supermarket, she can't help but sigh.
She takes out her mobile phone, searches through her contacts for "Man who viewed profile 42" and sends him a message: "Hello! I'm Emily. We contacted each other before, and I'm sorry to bother you, but you made an appointment with me today at the live meat section of supermarket XX?"One minute later, she receives a short reply from 'Man who viewed profile 42': "Okay, I'll be there in ten minutes. Wait for me.""Okay..." Emily sighs and adds an 'x' behind "Man who viewed profile 42" indicating that he has been eliminated.It's not Emily's fault! Ever since her mother forced her to go on a blind date six months ago, she has encountered many surprises. Emily's standards are not that high. She is 25 years old this year and works as a secretary in a large company in this bustling city. Recently, with the support of her parents, she bought herself a spacious room. Regarding her looks, she doesn't think she's too bad. But for some reason, every time someone introduces a potential partner to her, it's always tricky.There have been times when she went out to eat, and the person faked their death to avoid paying and left Emily to foot the bill. There was someone who, upon meeting her for the first time, immediately asked about her salary, and when he found out it wasn't high, he looked contemptuous on her. Someone had only met her a few times and already started lecturing her about household chores, saying that, as a man, he would never help with such things...At first, Emily was new to dating and was about to be pressured by those men with bad intentions, but luckily she had a good friend named Dani. When Dani heard about Emily's situation, she teased her and first taught her a lesson, then immediately took her mobile phone and wrote some 'x' marks after the names of the men who were dating.Since then, Emily felt more experienced, and whenever she went on dates, she would take notes and mark their phone numbers with 'x' However, despite her advanced dating skills, she still couldn't meet the right person!Two months ago, Emily struggled to find a suitable man and finally found someone who was not only good-looking but also had a stable job and a good personality. Although not a handsome actor level, he was considered attractive. However, their hobbies were not similar, as Emily was a woman who enjoyed staying at home watching movies and eating snacks, while the man liked to socialize and go out. They didn't fit well together, so Emily had to let him go.After that, Emily realized that being single was quite fulfilling. If she couldn't find true love, being single was also good. From then on, Emily entered a state of not caring, and when her mother introduced her to a date, she would just meet them casually.Now, how does she have to date this man today?The first time her mother talked to her about a blind date, Emily didn't take it seriously. When the man called to arrange a meeting, she was surprised by his pleasant voice. If her mother hadn't called to urge her today, Emily would have forgotten about her blind date.In the afternoon, she was snacking and watching a movie on her computer when her mother called: "My daughter, aren't you supposed to go on a blind date tonight? Let me tell you, you must seize this opportunity, you know? This time, the matchmaker is my friend, very trustworthy! She said the person is also successful, doing business overseas! I'm not after money, but with our economic conditions, you can only live well if you get married!"Emily's head spun: "Mom, I haven't even met him yet. How can you imagine marrying me off to him!""I'm just saying a few words. Is it that bad? Alright, hurry up, make yourself beautiful, and show well tonight! I'm waiting for good news from you!"Emily gave a long "yes" and continued watching the movie until 20 minutes before the appointment time, when she finally washed her face, tied her hair in a ponytail, and left with her tired eyes from staying up because late watching the movie.So now, Emily was standing in the raw meat section of the supermarket, bored and taking out her phone to play games.After a while, feeling even more bored, she sent a teasing message to Dani: "The blind date tonight is 'x' for sure! He even wants to meet me in the raw meat section of the supermarket! I don't understand why he wants to meet here!"Dani quickly replied: "Maybe he doesn't want to go out to eat and spend money?"Emily's fingers quickly moved on the screen: "Then I'm leaving. I don't want to waste my time with 'x'!"Dani: "You can do that, but will your mom beat you up?"Emily: "...... Hmm... you're so mean!"Her face looked like she was attending a funeral. She put her phone down, feeling sad about her mother's pressure on her marriage, and could only continue waiting.Having stood in one place for a long time, a middle-aged woman looking at the meat in the refrigerator looked up and said to her: "Hey, little girl, could you please cut me a pound of pork belly?"Emily quickly shook her head: "I'm sorry, I don't work here."The woman apologized and left, leaving Emily crying silently. Finally, Wolfgang, her match, when arrived? She didn't want to stand in front of a pile of meat anymore... she was famished and hadn't eaten dinner yet!Emily bowed her head and continued playing the game. After a while, someone lightly patted her shoulder. Emily was in the middle of an important moment in the game and didn't look up: "I'm not an employee here, and I'm waiting for someone."There was a moment of silence, and then a deep, soothing male voice said: "I know. I'm also here to find someone."Emily stopped her hand, looked up, and looked into a pair of black eyes.The man in front of her was at least 1.9 meters tall, wearing a black shirt and black pants, with long, perfectly straight legs that were even more perfect than the best models. But the most astonishing thing was his face - short, neat hair, bright eyes under thick eyebrows, a high nose and pale lips... really... he was more handsome than a movie star!Emily couldn't stop swallowing saliva: "You... you are Wolfgang?"The handsome man smiled slightly and nodded: "Yes, I am. You must be Emily. It's nice to meet you."Wolfgang extended his hand to her.Emily was stunned for a moment, then immediately put away her mobile phone and shook his hand with all her strength: "I... I... I... I'm very pleased to meet you! Extremely happy! So happy that you can't imagine!"Wow, after so many eye exams, fate finally brought her an outstanding man! Emily was so excited that she wanted to roll on the ground.It seemed that Emily's enthusiastic reaction was unexpected. Wolfgang raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "I'm sorry to keep you waiting here. I just wanted to buy meat at the supermarket, so I stayed here. After I finish buying the meat, let's eat dinner, okay?""Okay, of course, no problem, no problem!" Emily's face was flushed with excitement, and she had forgotten entirely the sarcastic remarks she had made earlier."Okay." Wolfgang asked the salesperson that he wanted to buy meat, wanting to buy dozens of kg of it. Emily followed him straight to the cashier, still staring at him, not even blinking, until Wolfgang turned around and looked at her: "Miss Emily.""Huh?" Emily blinked her eyes wide."I have to pay now.""Huh? Don't you have money? Let me help you pay!" Emily immediately said, truthfully, she used to hate meeting men who didn't pay, but today, she could spend money to support him! Okay, this is indeed a new world!But unfortunately, Wolfgang laughed and said: "No. I have money, but I have to pay. Can you let go of my hand?"Emily blinked a few times and bowed her head to consider, surprised that she was still holding onto his left hand! What happened? Why didn't she feel it at all?"Yes, yes, sorry!" Emily quickly let go, her face too hot, embarrassed! How could Emily be so shy?It seems that Wolfgang didn't mind. After he paid, he took the meat from the supermarket and paid the delivery person to take it away.Then he turned around and smiled at her, and Emily felt shocked electricity, hearing him say: "Let's go eat. What do you want to eat?""I'll eat anything!" Emily kept talking to herself, a little shy and nervous, but facing the ideal man in her heart, she really couldn't be shy!"Okay... Can we eat hot pot? When I came here, I saw a hot pot restaurant."Emily nodded: "Okay, okay!"So Wolfgang led Emily, who was still lost in thought, forward. On this street, many people were walking, but relatively chaotic. When the two of them passed through an alley, a large white dog with shiny fur sudde
Emily raised her chopsticks, put her favorite vegetables into the hotpot, and saw Wolfgang put all the beef into the pot directly. She was about to remind him that the meat would easily overcook, but then she noticed him quickly scoop the cooked flesh into his bowl with a spoon."Would you like to have some?" He scooped the spoon in front of her."Thank you." Emily took a bite and quietly observed his eating posture. Even though men ate more, she didn't think Wolfgang will eat so much meat.But then she saw a miracle.She only saw Wolfgang sitting up straight, with beautiful movements, and putting each piece of meat into his mouth. The activities were swift and neat, and after his thin lips opened and closed a few times, all the beef quickly went into his stomach.The broccoli in Emily's hand fell back into the bowl, and she was dazzled by his eating movements! She was sure that he had added a special effect! Why did she feel like she was watching a sci-fi movie?Wolfgang put do
"Because you're truly amazing!" Emily beamed, unable to hold back her praise: "You're handsome, kind, and enthusiastic. You're just perfect!"Wolfgang smiled and looked down at her hand on his arm. Emily also noticed, and her face turned red. She quickly let go of his hand and stammered: "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to... I'm sorry!""It's okay." Wolfgang shook his head, not knowing what to say next. He had no experience communicating with women.Emily was also embarrassed and didn't know what to say. As the awkward atmosphere began to change, Dani called Emily's phone. Emily answered the call, and Dani said she had arrived at the Cen-T downstairs, asking where Emily was. After hanging up the phone, Emily looked at Wolfgang and said: "Dani has arrived, so I... I'm going to see a movie now.""Okay, have fun." Wolfgang said: "It's not too late yet, be safe on your way back after the movie.""Yes!" Emily nodded vigorously, waving goodbye to him. Although she knew that girls should b
Late at night, Emily stood at the end of a dark street. Even though her phone was disconnected, she still maintained the gesture of placing her mobile phone by her ear without moving an inch. Dani looked at her and quickly approached her, asking: "What's going on? What did he say?"Emily's shoulders trembled as she turned to face Dani, her beautiful eyes filled with tears. She sniffled and said: "He... he dumped me! Wolfgang is fed up with me. My love just flew away! A a a. . . . . ."Dani patted her back to comfort her and asked: "Don't cry, don't cry. What did he say to you?"Emily choked back tears and repeated the words Wolfgang shouted at her on the phone.Dani was slightly angry and said: "Why is he like that? Even if you called him late at night, he shouldn't have talked to you like that! His temper is so bad. How can someone with such good looks act like this?"Emily wiped her eyes and said: "A a a, but I like him. I've never felt this way before when dating someone. . . . . .
"Why don't you have a dog smell on you? You must have rolled around in a dog's nest before you came to work!" Winston angrily stared at Emily: "It smells terrible! Go back and change all your clothes. If you don't, don't even think about having lunch!"Emily tried to explain: "Oh? But I don't have any other clothes... ""I don't care! Just make sure you don't smell like a dog anymore. Go out!" Winston pressed the button, and the elevator door opened. Emily could only sadly walk out.As the elevator door closed behind her, Emily rubbed her eyes. She hurried to her office to look for colleagues who had finished their lunch to borrow clothes from, intentionally explaining the smell on her body, ensuring that she would wash her clothes tomorrow for her colleagues.Her colleagues also knew Winston was a weirdo, so they didn't hesitate to lend her clothes and curiously sniffed her, unable to understand: "There's no scent! Winston is so annoying, and he must be sick! What's wrong with dogs?
At the same time, Emily was holding her phone, standing bewildered in the restroom in the lobby.A colleague patted her on the shoulder: "Emily, are you okay? Did Winston pressure you to the point of being mentally unstable?"Emily shook her head, then suddenly jumped three feet high, shouting: "Ahhh! He's not angry! He's not angry! He's taking me to the movies, ha ha ha! My love flower hasn't withered yet, ha ha ha ha ha ha, I'm so happy!"The colleague didn't understand but laughed: "You're talking nonsense about something?"Emily grabbed the other person's hand and shook it back and forth: "My target for dating is taking me to the movies tonight!""Oh, you're so happy. It looks like you finally succeeded in your blind date. Congratulations, congratulations."Emily let her colleague leave and happily spun around in the restroom before returning to her office.Because of her excitement, her work performance in the afternoon increased rapidly, and she quickly finished all the tasks Wi
By now, more than half of the customers in the restaurant had noticed Wolfgang's arrival. They all turned to look at him, causing a commotion. Emily overheard them whispering: "Wow, that man is so handsome!"Someone even took out their phone to take a picture of him.Suddenly, Emily felt a sense of pride, but as she thought about how she and Wolfgang would go their separate ways later tonight, she couldn't help but feel a sense of loss. She reminded herself that Wolfgang had made it clear he wasn't interested in her and tried to cherish the present moment for future memories.Wolfgang handed her the menu and said: "You choose."Remembering that he liked meat, Emily pointed to few meat dishes and asked: "Will these be enough for you?"Wolfgang chuckled and apologized: "I'm afraid not. I didn't feel full after eating hot pot last night. But it's okay, and you can eat your fill."Emily was surprised by how much he could eat. She doubted: "Do you cook for yourself every day? Isn't it exha
Emily quickened her pace but suddenly heard Wolfgang's voice from behind: "Miss Emily, wait a moment."She stopped, and her heart skipped a beat. Turning to look at him: "Yes, what's up?"Wolfgang took off his coat and put it on her: "It's late, be careful not to catch a cold. Also... if you're willing, I want to continue meeting with you. How do you feel about that?"... Late at night, all the shops on the street were closed except for one drink shop that was still open.A couple who had just left the movie theater walked in front of it but couldn't help but stop after only going a short distance.Because not far from that drink shop, at least thirty cats were gathered! Their colors were different, but they all had shiny fur and round bodies that indicated they were well-cared for. At this moment, the cats huddled together, looking up at the man in the button-up shirt standing before them, their tails swishing back and forth.However, the man did not seem pleased as he scolded the c
