BLIND DATE [LISRENE]

Showing Affection

Irene didn't want to meet her classmates. The women loved to compare their children and those without children like to compare their husbands. The men also competed with each other. Those with good careers boasted about their jobs, those without bragged about how many girls in the company flirted with them. Some even bragged about how much money they hid from their wives.

Maybe it was because their families pressured them, or they genuinely wanted to live their days with somebody, most of her classmates got married immediately after graduation. This made Irene's hasty marriage seem inappropriate, especially when she got married to someone after one blind date.

They would eat dinner somewhere and then go to karaoke afterward, the same tedious and boring routine.

Before going, her roommate, Wendy, specifically called Irene to remind her dress properly.

Out of common courtesy, Irene cleaned herself up a little and then dressed conspicuous crimson dress. Since Irene and Lisa only recently officialized their marriage, it was only natural to wear something festive and joyful.

The dinner was at a chicken restaurant and Irene hated chicken the most. So on the way there, she stopped by a pan-fried dumpling place and ate her fill.

Without with a full stomach, Irene stepped into the restaurant in a good mood.

When Irene arrived, almost everyone was already there.

Seeing her, several 'male classmates' called out to her, each one stepping over each other to offer her a seat.

"Irene, why did you only arrive now? We've been waiting for a while!"

"That's right, some of couldn't wait."

"Hahahaha!"

Irene, "...(◔_◔)..."

Irene frowned so slightly that no one noticed, sat down and said, "Sorry, the traffic was bad on the way here."

Wendy, the college roommate next to her, quickly motioned at Irene to look at the person next to her.

Irene glanced sideways. There was a gentle-looking man, wearing gold-rimmed spectacles, sitting on her right. The man gave her a shy look as if he was embarrassed.

Irene had a faint memory of the man. They had eaten together once before she graduated from university.

The dishes were served and the atmosphere became lively.

At this moment, somebody brought up Irene,

"Irene is a famous streamer now, an internet celebrity with millions of fans!"

"Yes, I know. I've watched some of Irene's streams, they're pretty good."

"Wow, it's so cool that you can sing in front of so many people, I would never able to..."
