Chapter 3 Blind Date Match Li Zhenguan

Wang Zhao sat for a while longer. The phone beside her vibrated gently twice. It was a message from her father at home, saying that someone had come to the house and asked her to return for a while.

He didn’t say who it was.

She frowned slightly but still packed up her books and put them back on the original shelf, leaving only one book on physiology to take home. After completing the borrowing procedures at the front desk, she prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, the front desk staff spoke up: “Why are you leaving so early today?”

In the month Wang Zhao had been here, most of the library staff had come to know her. After all, that extraordinary face was truly memorable. Thanks to her, their library had even gained a bit of online popularity. Haven’t you noticed more boys coming to read at the library this past month?

This was a friendly inquiry.

A faint smile appeared on Wang Zhao’s face: “There’s something at home, I need to go back for a while.”

The front desk staff let out a soft “oh”, and the conversation ended.

Wang Zhao took a book and rode the subway home. As soon as she opened the door, she saw a young man sitting on the living room sofa, having a casual conversation with her parents.

He looked familiar; she had seen him at the hospital a few times before. Wang’s parents seemed quite friendly towards him.

She had secretly inquired about this person’s identity.

He was the original body’s blind date match, named Li Zhenguan, and also a fellow university alumnus.

With fair skin, a pair of clear black and white almond-shaped eyes, delicate features, when looking at people, he often gave a pure and naive impression.

But he had another quality that made him seem much more clear and transparent.

He looked like an obedient and well-behaved child.

Judging from her family’s attitude, the two should be in a relationship somewhere between blind date matches and not yet lovers.

This was all she could deduce. Her previous phone had broken, and all the old chat records were gone. She had no way to check, so she could only make a rough guess while trying to keep the relationship with this person as distant as possible.

She didn’t want to get involved in any romance at this time, especially one connected to the original body. That would be more than just troublesome.

It would be personally troublesome, and Wang Zhao disliked trouble.

She paused at the door, mainly unclear why this person had suddenly come to visit.

The three people in the living room also saw her.

Li Zhenguan stood up, and Wang’s parents also stood up. Zhang Ke, that is, the original body’s father, told Li Zhenguan to continue sitting and not to be so polite, then said to Wang Zhao at the door: “Zhenguan came specially today to see if your health has improved.”

On the table in front of them were some gift boxes, which could be seen as what he had brought when visiting. They were all nutritional supplements, probably quite valuable.

Hearing this, Wang Zhao paused in the act of changing shoes at the door. Her faint gaze turned towards the young man sitting on the single sofa. When he met her gaze, he seemed somewhat shy, pursing his lips in a smile.

Her expression unchanged, she moved her gaze away, slowly hmming in response to her father.

After changing her shoes, she entered the living room and said to everyone: “I’ll go to my room to change clothes first.”

Her father nodded slightly, still smilingly complaining to Li Zhenguan beside him: “This child has always been so particular. Even with a guest here, she doesn’t even greet you.”

Li Zhenguan shook his head, saying he didn’t mind.

He truly had a gentle demeanor, the kind of boy’s personality that parents love most nowadays.

Such a person would be good at managing the household after marriage, not prone to arguments, beneficial for married life. Moreover, their Wang Zhao had always been too aloof and indifferent in personality, having someone like Zhenguan to balance it out would be perfect.

The couple truly liked this child Zhenguan, but their daughter’s attitude was lukewarm, and the couple didn’t want to force her.

Wang Zhao quickly changed and came out, still in a white shirt and casual pants, mainly because it was comfortable to wear like this.

When she came out, Li Zhenguan was sitting alone in the living room watching TV. Wang’s parents were busy in the kitchen, clearly intentionally leaving space for the two of them to talk.

Wang Zhao sat opposite Li Zhenguan and gave him a look.

“My health has greatly improved, thank you for coming to visit.” It was a tone used to treat outsiders distantly.

Wang Zhao felt she had handled it well. Even the least intelligent person could hear the meaning in her words.

I have no intention of developing any other intimate relationship with you.

The young man in front of her seemed to sense her coldness, looking at her in disbelief. His expression became somewhat aggrieved, as if he might cry at any moment.
