"By the way, Xiao Yuan, you don't have a girlfriend yet, right?"
Cao Yan suddenly asked.
Zhang Yuan was stunned for a moment, and the figure of Yang Xiaoyun appeared in his mind, but in the end he shook his head and said.
"Not yet, don't worry."
"Why aren't you in a hurry?"
Cao Yan's face suddenly darkened and she complained.
"How old are you? Why don't you worry? In the past, people and children your age would have been able to run away."
Zhang Yuan suddenly said with a bit of laughter and tears.
"Dean, wasn't that in the past? What era are we in now?"
Cao Yan said stubbornly.
"No matter what age, marriage is the top priority."
"And don't think that I have old-fashioned ideas. Don't we also advocate early marriage and early childbearing? Aren't girls over the age of thirty already becoming older mothers?"
"If your mother had been more sure, she would have urged you to get married."
Zhang Yuan was speechless for a moment after being criticized. Before he could react, he put the matter aside and listened to Dean Cao continue to speak.
"Fortunately, I have long expected that you don't have a girlfriend yet, so I specially arranged a blind date for you this afternoon. You can go and meet her then."
"I originally thought about calling you later, but I didn't expect you to come today."
When Zhang Yuan heard this, he was shocked and resisted, so he hurriedly spoke.
"No, Dean, I don't want to see you."
"Why don't you want to meet her? I'm not forcing you to marry her. I'm just going to meet her. If you like her, try it. If you don't like her, forget it. Why don't you agree?"
Cao Yan immediately said angrily.
When Zhang Yuan heard this, he could only use Yang Xiaoyun as a shield and said.
"Actually, I already have someone I like."
I thought this excuse could convince the other party, but I didn't expect that Cao Yan didn't believe it at all and waved her hand.
"Don't lie to me. You look like a lump of wood. How can you have someone you like?"
"Besides, what if there is someone you like, but you're not with that person. Maybe you'll like this person better after meeting her."
"Anyway, I've already made an agreement with them, you have to go."
In fact, Zhang Yuan wasn't very sure why he was so resistant. It was just a meeting, no big deal.
But when he thought about going on a blind date, he felt that he had betrayed Yang Xiaoyun, and he felt very guilty. It was clear that the two of them had nothing, not even the right to feel guilty.
But he still said hesitantly.
"forget it."
Seeing that she couldn't explain him, Cao Yan turned around and shouted to the children on the side.
"Children, do you want Brother Xiao Yuan to find you a sister-in-law and give you a little nephew?"
When the children heard this, they immediately cheered and talked in a hurry to come over.
"Want! Want!"
"Brother Zhang Yuan, when will you give birth to your nephew for us?"
"Hurry up, hurry up, we want our little nephew."
"What is a sister-in-law?"
"She is Brother Xiao Yuan's girlfriend, the person who will always be with Brother Xiao Yuan in the future."
"Then I want to be Brother Xiao Yuan's girlfriend, and I want to be with Brother Xiao Yuan all the time."
"I want it too, I want it too."
"We will all be brother Xiao Yuan's girlfriends."
…
Zhang Yuan's scalp suddenly felt numb because of the children's unusual remarks, especially the fact that there was a little boy who wanted to be his girlfriend. Although he was childish and innocent, he still felt nervous.
When I think about the fact that brother love complexes in novels often occur in orphanages, I can't help but feel worried.
Finally, he looked at Dean Cao and thought that if he agreed, the other party would also be happy, so he nodded and said.
"Okay, I'll go see you."
Cao Yan then showed a satisfied smile, and then told Zhang Yuan the date of the date.
He also warned me when I was saying goodbye.
"Xiao Yuan, if you dare to let others go, don't come to the orphanage to see me again."
Zhang Yuan could only laugh or cry and said that he would definitely not let go.
Then we arrived at the agreed place within the agreed time.
Met the girl he was on a blind date with.
The girl has long hair, a delicate face, and a long skirt that highlights her proud figure.
When he saw Zhang Yuan, he was obviously startled, and then said with a smile.
"I didn't expect you to be quite handsome."
"you are beautiful too."
Zhang Yuan smiled and said immediately.
"My name is Zhang Yuan."
But he didn't reach out his hand.
When the girl saw that Zhang Yuan's eyes were clear and there was no desire in his eyes like the other person showed when he saw her, she sat up slightly and spoke.
"Roy, let me tell you straight. My family forced me to meet you. I had no choice. So, you understand what I mean."
Unexpectedly, Zhang Yuan showed a relaxed smile and said.
"Actually, I was forced to do the same. This is just right. Let's just say that we don't like each other, so we can just deal with it."
Hearing this, the Roy man said nothing and felt a little uncomfortable.
Zhang Yuan thought the other party had acquiesced, and then stood up and said happily.
"Since that's the case, I'll leave first and see you again when we have a chance."
"stop!"
What was unexpected was that Roy actually asked to stay with him, and then asked with a look of resentment.
"What? Are you very busy? You don't even have time to eat?"
Zhang Yuan was stunned and didn't understand why the other party suddenly changed his attitude, so he could only explain.
"Aren't we both forced to come here? There is no need to eat together."
"Why not? Sit down and drink some wine with me."
Roy commanded.
Zhang Yuan had an inexplicable bad feeling in his heart, so he tried to evade it.
"Actually, I have something to do in the store, so why don't you ask someone else to accompany you? Goodbye."
He said that he would apply oil on the soles of his feet.
Unexpectedly, the Roy man actually threatened him.
"Okay, you can go now. I'll tell my family when I get back. I've been waiting here for several hours but I haven't seen you yet."
Zhang Yuan stopped immediately, cursed a crazy woman in his mind, and then sat down helplessly.
Roy smiled proudly when she saw this. The reason why she did this was because Zhang Yuan seemed not to be interested at all in her, a beautiful woman that other men could not walk away from.
This made the proud Roy people more competitive and curious about Zhang Yuan.
Then he asked the waiter to serve wine to the two of them and asked.
"Why did you come on a blind date?"
Zhang Yuan replied angrily.
"Do you have bad ears or a bad brain? Didn't you tell me? You were forced to do so."
"But why didn't you refuse? Don't you believe in love?"
Roy continued to ask.
"So, you didn't refuse because you don't believe in love anymore?"
Zhang Yuan asked rhetorically.
When the Roy man heard this, a look of loneliness flashed in his eyes, and he picked up his wine glass and took a sip.
"Love? What is love?"
Zhang Yuan's brows jumped.
The two then started a discussion on "what is love", a question that countless literati have discussed in their works since ancient times.
