Li Xiaoyue talked for quite a while before handing the phone to Wang Yue. She waited while he exchanged a few words with Old Madam Wang, then, after he hung up, said in disbelief, "You've never had a girlfriend before? Your mom sounded so worried!"
Wang Yue felt helpless. The original Wang Yue had pushed himself too hard, and by the age of thirty-three, his health had already given out. That was why he'd been let go by a major tech company.
He'd worked himself so hard that he hadn't had time to date. Now that Wang Yue had taken over his body, he had to take the blame, too. He said helplessly, "I used to work at a big tech company. All the programmers around me were men. Where was I supposed to find a woman?"
Hearing that, Li Xiaoyue wanted to point out that her boyfriend also worked at a big tech company, and yet he'd still found a girlfriend like her.
But saying that would have sounded a little too suggestive, so she smiled and said, "I already promised your mom I'd help you find a girlfriend. Let's add each other on WeChat, and I'll introduce you to one of my friends."
Seeing how enthusiastic Li Xiaoyue was, Wang Yue helplessly handed over his phone. After adding her on WeChat, he headed off.
Li Xiaoyue was very efficient. Wang Yue was still riding in the DiDi car he'd called when she sent him a WeChat contact.
Wang Yue already had enough women in his life. He was still worrying about not having enough time to bring them all over, so how could he possibly take on another romantic entanglement?
So he didn't add the contact. He pretended he hadn't seen it and went home.
