But I didn't expect that someone could deviate from the topic of men in such a post.

Several people commented: "The detective in the background of the photo looks so handsome from behind..."

"Yes, yes, his legs are so straight and his waist is so thin. He looks like a handsome guy from the back of his head."

I also looked at the blurred and upright back of the criminal police in the photo and thought to myself, what kind of handsome guy is that? I almost got together with a more handsome guy. But I didn't want to accept him later.

This is a long story. The only blind date I had was with a criminal police officer.

It was the month before last, before that trip, my classmate's mother introduced me to a criminal policeman. He was really handsome, and had a dimple on his left cheek when he smiled. But after dating him a few times, I realized that there is always a gap between reality and ideal.

The criminal policeman was so dull and honest, his speech was dull and boring, and he knew nothing about the Internet, literature, reading, and travel. Many times, we sat facing each other in silence. I was in agony, but he smiled shyly and seemed to feel good. Is he domineering? Cool? Unruly? What about the cigarette between his rough fingers? None of them. He said he didn't smoke because it was harmful to his health.

The last straw that broke the camel's back was a text message he sent me later. Perhaps he was trying to get closer to my world. It was an online joke, and he added: Ms. Lisa, I saw this joke this morning, it's very funny. My colleagues laughed so hard that their stomachs hurt. Share it with you.

I finally couldn't stand this lame joke, which I had seen three years ago and didn't make me laugh at all. It's impossible for two people whose sense of humour is as different as Mount Everest to be together happily. I immediately called the matchmaker and tactfully said that our personalities were really not suitable...

The criminal police comrade was straightforward and we never contacted each other again.

Thinking of this, my heart ached.

So, in the recent period, I met two handsome guys in a row, but they both ended after just one meeting. This is even worse than not meeting them at all before.

I had almost finished reading the news and was just about to close my computer when, for some reason, an idea came to my mind and I typed "Yunnan Beauty" cruise ship into the search bar.

No such information.

That travel route seems to have been discontinued.

I just finished writing a book not long ago, so I haven't had much urge to write recently. But readers don't think so. I looked at Weibo and saw that it was full of people urging me to write a new book, and everyone complained: "Master, we have been waiting for a long time. Did you disappear?"

I thought, is a month a long time? I quickly logged off and pretended to be dead.

In the evening, I drove out to eat. On the way back, I found a new auto repair shop near the community. The bright red banner at the door of the shop attracted me: Opening Rewards: 100 yuan 12-time car wash card. I looked at my dirty car. I couldn't remember how long it had been since I washed it.

I drove the car to the door of the auto repair shop.

It was dark, and the wind made the sign at the door rustle. The store was bright and clean, probably because it had just opened and there were not many customers yet. Several repairmen were sitting inside. One of them, who looked cute and likable, came out to greet me: "Beauty, what can I do for you?"

I said, "Wash the car. There's a little scratch on the front of the car. Can you fix it? If you can fix it, I won't bother going to the 4S shop."

He quickly said "Yes, yes", and then shouted to the inside: "Brother Yu, come over and take a look?" Then he said to me: "Beautiful lady, your car is great, I'll ask our No. 1 technician here to show it to you."

I said, "Okay."
