Since Shi Li didn't have access to quality male prospects, she entrusted this matter to Mrs. Huang Jie.
Perhaps due to reaching a certain age and awakening of genetic instincts, Huang Jie became extremely enthusiastic about matchmaking.
Moreover, after introducing a scumbag to Shi Ruan last time, Huang Jie was determined to redeem herself.
Huang Jie mobilized her girlfriends and colleagues, asking them to inform her if they encountered any good young men.
Her efforts weren't exactly subtle, and many people became aware of Huang Jie's mission.
Observant individuals reasoned that with such a grand operation, she couldn't possibly be recruiting employees.
If not for recruitment, then it must be for finding a son-in-law.
Huang Jie's daughter was still young, not yet of age, so she definitely wasn't rushing to find a match for her daughter.
Many wealthy ladies, during their afternoon tea sessions, discussed this matter, wondering which family member she was trying to find a match for.
When Mrs. Ji heard about it, she knew Huang Jie was looking for a match for someone in the family, but she didn't consider Shi Ruan as the potential candidate.
Ji Chunsheng hadn't told his parents about the breakup yet. In her mind, her son and Shi Ruan were still going strong, and they might even get married by the end of the year.
Of course, for a prospective son-in-law to become official, he first needed to win over his future in-laws.
So when Mrs. Ji heard about this, she quickly called Ji Chunsheng, "Son, since you work at a tech company, you must have many young, eligible bachelors there."
Ji Chunsheng had a psychology book open in front of him, which he had been reading lately.
"Yes, what about it?"
"Well, I heard that Ruan's second aunt is looking for excellent young single men. I'm not sure who she's trying to match them with, but see if there are any suitable candidates at your company."
Mrs. Ji was trying to help her son curry favor with his future in-laws.
Hearing his mother's words, Ji Chunsheng remained silent for two seconds on the other end of the line. While Mrs. Ji didn't know who Huang Jie was trying to match, he believed he did.
Ji Chunsheng only said he understood, without elaborating.
He couldn't exactly tell her that this search for excellent men was actually for her future daughter-in-law.
After some thought, Ji Chunsheng became worried that his mother might get too enthusiastic and send someone directly to the Shi family, so he added, "Just leave this matter to me, you don't need to worry about it."
"Don't forget about it then."
After a week of torture, Shi Li even started to miss her school days.
When would this dark period of life come to an end?
Shi Ruan had dealt with all sorts of students and parents before, so she'd seen plenty of strange characters. These oddballs were still within her tolerance range.
Shi Li seemed more resistant to blind dates than Shi Ruan; an outsider might think Shi Li was the one being forced to go on dates.
To avoid accompanying Shi Ruan on blind dates, Shi Li even made up excuses about having to return to school for classes.
She truly didn't want to attend classes, but she wanted to avoid the blind dates even more.
On the phone, Shi Ruan scoffed, "Who would believe that? I'm already in your living room. If you don't get up, I'll come upstairs to wake you up personally."
Reluctantly sitting in the passenger seat of the car, Shi Li noticed that due to lack of regular driving practice, Shi Ruan's driving skills were quite average.
Shi Li fastened her seatbelt tightly, valuing her life, and couldn't help but quip, "Why not just call a driver? Why trouble yourself to drive?"
Being dragged out early in the morning, Shi Li was quite resentful, "Is it really okay for you to go on blind dates every day instead of going to work?"
"You're still a student, yet you're lying at home sleeping all day. I've already taken leave from school, it won't affect normal classes, and I don't care about losing some salary."
Shi Li couldn't help but mutter under her breath, "I'm worried your salary might go negative, and you'll end up owing them money."
Shi Ruan focused on driving, and while turning, she exclaimed, "Oh, isn't that your classmate?"
Shi Li asked confusedly, "Which classmate? When did you meet any of my classmates?"
Shi Ruan glanced at the rearview mirror again, "That female classmate who came to our house with you last time. Isn't it class time now? Why isn't she in school, and why is there a boy with her?"
Her teacher's instincts kicked in, and seeing students skipping class made her frown. She even considered stopping the car to check what was going on.
High school was a crucial time; students shouldn't be dating, let alone letting relationships affect their studies.
Girls were innocent and easily deceived.
A female classmate who went to Shi Ruan's house with Shi Li?
Shi Li pictured a tall, slim figure in her mind.
Rongrong, as a teaching assistant, should be at school now.0
It was unusual for her to be outside school, especially with a boy, according to Shi Ruan.
