Your Blind Date Has Been Delivered

My sworn enemy had filled out my information on a dating site. The moment I received the call, I was about to yell at the scammer when a stream of pop-up comments flashed before my eyes:

The male lead is afraid of an arranged marriage with the female side character, so he just randomly filled out her info, and she actually reeled in a rich, handsome catch.

Too bad the female side character isnt destined for it. The rich, handsome man she rejected becomes the female leads most devoted, exclusive lapdog.

The unrequited male supporting character even dies saving the female lead in the end; such a tear-jerking setup.

Wait, what?

Devoted, exclusive, lapdog, rich, handsome?

I immediately cleared my throat, my voice softening: "I'm free tonight. Let's pick a place to meet."

The voice on the other end of the line was still pleasant and efficient: "Alright, Ms. Sullivan, I'll send the location to your phone shortly." With that, the person hung up.

Before I could fully process what had happened, I saw the comments section light up again:

OMG, what's wrong with this female side character? Why did she agree? Shouldn't she reject him and thoroughly humiliate him?

Nooo what if the male supporting character actually falls for her? My lapdog second male lead can only be for the female lead!

How could he possibly fall for her? What does the female side character have besides her looks that can compare to our darling female lead?

I casually looked up the name of the website the man had mentioned. The moment I typed it in, I was stunned. This dating site wasn't just legitimate; its membership fee was an astounding ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine dollars. I now fully understood just how much Logan Thorne detested me. He was truly willing to spend money to avoid an arranged marriage with me. But arranged marriages were usually meddled with by parents; Logan and I hated each other so much, we could only be enemies, never spouses.

For my evening meeting, I simply booked a facial at a beauty salon. Just then, I received a call from my mom. "I'm telling you, you're in your twenties, and it's almost the holidays again. What am I supposed to tell the relatives?"

I sighed, "Mom, our family isn't poor, and our relatives are all well-off. Why are they all so idle that they have to meddle in other people's business?"

My mom was surprisingly candid: "Well, it's because your mom, me, was too bored in previous years and used to badger them all. Now they're just getting their revenge."

"Couldn't you have just refused?"

"The me from back then made it impossible for them to refuse."

That boomerang really stung My dad had pampered my mom so much she spent her days playing mahjong. Her hands were busy enough, but her mouth never stopped either. I was too annoyed to speak, but still replied with my pre-planned line: "Stop trying to set me up with Logan. I have a boyfriend."

"Since when? What does he look like, what does he do?"

"Just stop asking. I'll bring him home for the holidays, won't I?"

I hung up. Then I started to panic again. Just like the comments said, I had only secured a chance to meet the male supporting character. Whether I would like him, or whether he would like me, was indeed an unknown. I muttered casually, "If it really doesn't work out, it looks like I'll have to rent a boyfriend to take home for the holidays."

But the comments seemed to relax:

So she's also afraid of an arranged marriage. But to believe a phone call so easily, she's really not vigilant at all.

The second male lead belongs to the female lead, and to the audience. He just can't belong to the female side character.

I dont think the second male leads taste is that bad. How could such a perfect second male lead be suitable for this female side character? Anyone would know how to choose once they meet the female lead, right?

That evening, the first time I saw Julian Knight, I couldnt help but exclaim: He truly was a handsome man. So, I directly addressed him: To make a long story short, shall we get married?

Id read a ton of comments. Every single one said he was devoted, exclusive, and a rich, handsome man. They even said he had no bad habits and was single only because he was dedicated to his work. Theyd even detailed his family backgroundmore accurate than any background check.

He just paused, then immediately responded, I havent introduced myself yet.

I nodded. I just feel a strong connection with you. What more could I ask for in such a perfect man?

LOL, what connection? Shes just impressed by his looks, right?

Why couldnt it be that shes also afraid of an arranged marriage with the male lead? I dont think the female side character is as bad as you all say.

The female lead is about to appear. Lets see how she can compete.

I listened carefully as he introduced himself, then hastily introduced myself. I stood up and invited him, If youre still free tonight, why dont we go for a walk? Its better than us both sitting here awkwardly.

If I couldnt beat it, I could at least avoid it. I had to create more opportunities for myself. Isnt that how people reach the pinnacle of their lives? He had no objection and followed me out of the coffee shop.

As we walked along the lakeside promenade, I asked him, With your background, why are you on a dating site? Dont your family arrange suitable matches for you? I was practically asking why he wasnt in an arranged marriage. In truth, my familys circumstances were far inferior to his.

He nodded. Im a person who goes by feeling. For someone Ill spend my life with, I hope its someone I genuinely like. As for circumstances I dont think those are the main point.

Exactly! Thats why when the female lead caught his eye, he had no one else in his sight.

His love for the female lead is undeniable, and his ending makes me sob uncontrollably.

I looked at the stray cat that suddenly appeared at my feet. I pulled out a portable pouch of cat food from my pocket.

You carry that with you?

I thought he meant the cat food, and immediately explained, Yes, feeding stray cats wet treats isnt ideal; they can get oral inflammation. My pouches double as bowls, which are more convenient and dont harm the environment.

He smiled. Do you also have cats?

Four cats and a dog. Youll get to meet them if theres a chance.

The female side character is so cunning, shes trying to establish a caring image for herself, but the male supporting character likes that feeling.

Does she think taking the male supporting character away and preventing him from meeting the female lead will work? Theyre destined to meet. Shell regret it.

Who knows what the future holds Before I even finished that thought, I knew the comments were right. At that moment, the female lead, Anna McCarthy, appeared. She ran past us, shouting, Stop, thief! Behind her, a crying old lady slapped her thigh. The kind female lead quickly ran out of breath.

Now, it was my turn to show what I could do. The comments had only praised my face, no one mentioned my strong limbs. I quickly charged forward. Just as I was about to grab the thief, I saw the comments.

This female side character is so stupid, a woman daring to charge. The thief has a knife.

At the same time, I saw the thief making a movement as if to pull out a knife. Although I was a little flustered, self-preservation was the most important thing. As I lifted my leg, someone else's foot had already connected. It was Julian, who had rushed over behind me.

The thief cried out, collapsing to the ground, the knife he'd just pulled out flying away. Julian then pinned the thief down. Due to the momentum of my missed kick, I also stumbled and fell.

At that moment, Anna McCarthy arrived, panting. She anxiously helped me up. Are you alright? My knee hurt a little, so I had to be honest: Ouch, I wanted to pretend I was fine, but my knee hurts too much. I want to cry.

Hahahahaha, why is the female side character so funny?

The female lead is so pure, so beautiful. Now that she's a little sweaty, she's like a goddess descended.

I took a closer look at Anna. What would be an exaggerated amount of exercise for her had only made her slightly sweaty, her face beautifully flushed. She thanked Julian, then snatched the recovered bag and hurried off to find the old lady whose bag had been stolen.

Good heavens. She was so kind, I almost fell in love with her myself. Julian stared at her retreating back, and I already had a premonition that such feelings might indeed be predestined.

But then Julian, busy subduing the thief, turned to me again. Help call the police. After I dutifully called the police, he asked me, Are you alright?

I shook my head. Im fine. He didnt even get the knife out. Robbery was one thing, but assault with a deadly weapon was another.

The police arrived swiftly. Watching the thief being led away by officers, Julian suddenly walked over to the weeping old lady. After her ordeal, she was still too shaken to recover. We had all clearly heard her crying earlier, saying the bag contained her husbands life-saving money, just withdrawn from the bank, and there wasnt enough to begin with, almost getting stolen. The female lead anxiously comforted the old lady nearby. I can help you figure something out.

Julian listened, then made a call. Grandma, would you mind telling me your husbands hospital? Ill cover your husbands medical bills.

So, for the female lead, the male supporting character truly would try to do anything. Under their joint persuasion, the old lady left, relieved.

Seriously, the female lead and male supporting character together are a delight to behold.

Im on Team Male Supporting Character; I support him moving up.

Whats the female side character still standing around for? Cant she see the atmosphere is just right? Why intrude?

Actually, it wasnt that I wanted to intrude, it was that after I stood up, I found my foot was hurting badly. In a moment, Julian walked up to me again. Are you feeling unwell somewhere?

I tried to walk a few steps. My foot hurts terribly; I think I twisted it.

The female side character is such a manipulative green tea, pulling out all the stops.

My foot hurts too, can a handsome guy take me to the hospital?

Julian took me to the hospital without a second thought. That was impressive. I ran and kicked, and ended up with a hairline fracture. What angered me even more was that the most bizarre comment was:

The female side character has already lost so badly, and now she has a hairline fracture. How can that compare to the female leads perfect bones?

It was almost the holidays, and Id managed to fracture my bone. Logan heard about it instantly. He swaggered into my house, even bringing a ridiculously expensive pair of crutches. His handsome face always spouted crazy things: Holiday season, and youre on crutches, youre something else, Scarlett Sullivan.

I genuinely couldnt imagine a girl like Anna McCarthy falling for someone like Logan. Truly a misfortune for our family.

Dont you worry your head, its a hairline fracture, not a full break. You dont need to be so happy.

He unexpectedly poked my head with his finger. Can you even remember youre a woman? You charged at him even though he had a knife? Are you trying to get yourself killed? Logan and I might be sworn enemies, but we certainly didnt wish death upon each other.

How was I supposed to know he had a knife when I chased him? But thanks to you calling me a menace, I guess Im unkillable. Just dont tell my mom. I was afraid my mom would tie me down in the hospital for the entire holiday.

I glared at him, asking the crucial question: Anyway, since when do you care if I live or die? What are you doing here? Just passing by?

His face changed, even flushing slightly. I deigned to check if you were dead.

I glanced out the window, understanding. Oh? This is the university district. Did you fall for a college student?

He instantly became flustered, his face turning even redder. Annoyed, he stalked towards the door. If I ever come to see you again, Im a dog.

Did I hit the nail on the head? I called out to his retreating back, Logan, you didnt fall for a male college student, did you? He responded with a raised fist.

The comments section buzzed:

The male lead fell in love with the female lead at first sight on the street, even chasing her to her campus gate.

If the male leads mom hadnt insisted he invite the female side character over, he wouldnt have come.

I really wanted to say. He ran off too fast, he didnt even tell me about his aunt inviting me to dinner, did he?

Not two minutes later, the doorbell rang. I hopped over to open the door. What, you again?

But it was Julian Knight standing outside. Behind Julian, there were many people. Such a grand entrance immediately scared me into a precarious one-legged stance. I lost my balance and fell backward. As Julian caught me, my hands landed directly on his chest muscles. It was a very nice feel.

Your foot isnt good, so Ive brought people to take care of you.

But, can you please stop squeezing for a moment?

Since he hadnt been immediately swept away by the female lead, I saw no reason not to keep fighting for him. I didn't let go, still enjoying the feel. Casually, I asked him again, Julian, shall we get married?

Yes, but before we get married, can you please stop squeezing?

Sorry, Ive just never touched that before. Wait, what did he just say? He actually agreed?

He scooped me up and gently placed me on the sofa. Watching the procession of people stream into my apartment, I joked, What is all this? This isnt exactly how you propose, is it? The people behind him were either carrying medical kits or various types of groceries.

He gestured to the people behind him to help me. This is my private doctor. I brought him to give you another check-up. If its serious, well go to my private hospital.

Wait, how do you know where I live?

You said you wanted to get married, didnt you? So I asked the friend who came to see you at the hospital, and she told me. How could anyone be even more direct than me?

Its inconvenient for you to live alone. And I know you wouldnt want to stay at my place, so I brought people to cook you some nutritious meals. Once youve eaten, Ill take them all with me so as not to disturb your rest.

Also, I brought a professional pet groomer, Sarah, to help you take care of your cats and dog these next few days. From now on, whenever you need anything, you can entrust it to her; shes very professional.

I was practically moved to tears. And also shocked by the comments:

Oh my god, this is the preferential treatment our darling female lead should be enjoying, Im so jealous.

This made the male supporting character completely miss the female lead. This female side character is too sly. And hes so considerate, how did he even think of the pets?

Good thing the male lead has already met the female lead and had a heroic rescue moment for her.

To be honest, compared to the feast about to appear in my house, I was more curious about what Logans heroic rescue situation was like. Seeing me a little dazed, Julian started to self-critique. Am I moving too fast? Did I scare you?

I waved my hand, speaking without filter, Too fast for what? Its not like we got our marriage license on the first meeting and slept together on the second. Uh you know, Ive just read too many brain-dead CEO novels. He chuckled, making my heart flutter. Next time I see Logan, even if I cant hit him, Ill have to praise him a little: that ninety-nine thousand dollar membership fee was truly worth it.

The male supporting character is most afraid of girls crying. Every time our darling female lead cries, he gets flustered and panicky, practically giving his heart away.

After the family doctor finished examining me, I stared at my badly bruised ankle I wanted to cry but couldn't! I didn't have a tragic family background, and my life was quite free, so I genuinely couldn't squeeze out any tears. I sighed, only able to change my approach.

I scooted closer. Theres something, Mr. Knight, I dont know if you could help with?

What is it?

The holidays are in half a month. I hesitated. My mom said if I dont bring someone home, shell force me to marry anyone, and if she makes me marry an old man Sorry, Mom.

He agreed in a second. Okay, Ill go home with you for the holidays this year.

I was extremely happy, and asked him directly, Im not an easy woman, and Ive never been in a relationship before. But Im very happy right now, so I want to hug you. May I?

He immediately embraced me tightly. Thats something the man should do actively. I dont think Id been hugged like that in a long time.

Julian?

Hmm?

If you act like this, Im going to get serious.

Okay.

If I do this, or that, or whatever, you cant blame me.

Okay.

I pulled away from him, exasperated. Are you thinking that a high membership fee means there are no scammers? Are you too trusting? And why do you agree when I say marriage? What if someone else said marriage?

The male supporting character isn't that simple, how can the female side character believe everything?

Oh my, I'm kind of shipping these two, what do I do?

The female lead is attracted to the handsome male lead. When are they going to have a kissing scene? I'm a SVIP, I want to see it.

He still looked the same: Im not a fool to believe everything others say; its just that I believe everything you say. Later, tell me all your parents preferences, and Ill prepare some gifts for your home. These days, Ill bring people over, you can only go home once your foot is healed.

This was a direct hit, impossible to fend off When had I ever met a man like this?

I was momentarily flustered, somewhat forgetting I was an injured person. I stood up and took a step, then remembered I couldn't walk, pulled my leg back, my brain and foot out of sync, and stumbled right into him again. This time, something even more embarrassing than public humiliation happened. I head-butted his crotch. He grunted in pain.

I was so ashamed I almost cried. Im so sorry, I didnt mean to. I mean, if I were faking it, I wouldnt use this much force, and aim for that area I swear I really didnt mean to The more I explained, the more chaotic it became. I tugged at him. The private doctor is still here; should he take a look?

He grabbed my flailing hand. Its fine, dont rush. It wont affect our marriage. He wiped my tears, a little flustered, saying things that were even more charming than mine. Dont cry. Rather than showing that part to a man, I think its better to save it for your wife.

Oh no, the female side character actually cried, and as soon as she cried, the male supporting character softened.

This female side character is so clumsy; I maliciously suspect she wants to destroy what she cant have.

Is she trying to confiscate the crime tool?

Confiscate your ghost! Havent even committed a crime yet!

Julian, your family owns a chain of malls, dont they? I asked, gesturing at the carload of goods, a slight tremor in my voice. The backseat and trunk were crammed, not just the passenger seat.

LOL, of course the male supporting characters family owns malls.

The male supporting character even complained before leaving that the car was too small to fit everything.

Is it not enough? Ill prepare more then.

I quickly stopped him. Its too much, okay? Julian, you could be proposing with all this. Were just going to make an appearance; theres no need to be so exaggerated. Besides, nothing was set in stone yet.

This guy, no matter how much I tried to get close, remained as firm as a statue. Even when he blushed, he would restrain himself and endure. If the comments hadnt said he genuinely wasnt interested in the female lead, I would have thought he was saving himself for her.

It was such a strange feeling. I didnt even have much information about him, yet he was already coming home with me to meet my family. I almost felt like Id gotten a free rental boyfriend for the holidays.

On the way, I expressed some concern. Julian, if you come home with me, wont your parents be upset?

He didnt hesitate. Of course not. They were very happy when I told them I was going home with my girlfriend for the holidays.

Huh? That sounded so unreliable. How could his parents be so nonchalant?

I was mainly worried youd be bored. You could have been with your family and friends. Here, you dont know anyone.

Friends can be met anytime, its no trouble. He suddenly remembered something. Oh, right, Im afraid you might be shy around new people. After the holidays, Ill take you to meet my friends. Theyre all great, just a bit fond of joking around.

This male supporting character, once he commits, hes incredibly thoughtful.

I cant stand it anymore, what does he see in the female side character?

My parents, having lived so many years, had certainly seen a few things. But even they were a little overwhelmed by the array of expensive gift boxes. My mom pulled me into a corner. Where did you find such a gem? Could I tell her Logan had paid for him?

I dont know, I just have a very shapely figure.

My mom smacked me on the back. If my foot hadnt recovered, I would have fallen. Still being silly and improper. I dont know what he sees in you! My mom glared at me twice more, then went back to host Julian.

My dad seized the opportunity to discuss with me, First visit, with all these gifts he brought, the cash gift should be substantial. I nodded; that seemed logical.

But this guy was truly something. He pulled two large red envelopes from his pocket. They were so thick, youd think they were two big red books. Uncle and Auntie, Im very happy to have met such a wonderful girl as Scarlett Sullivan.

This is my first visit, and Im a little nervous. I always feel like I havent prepared enough. Ive prepared these holiday envelopes for you, and I hope you wont mind my presumptuousness.

Ill take good care of Scarlett from now on.

This was completely turning the tables! Even more incredible was my mom. She hadnt prepared a guest room at all. She had simply placed an extra pillow on my bed. When I questioned her, she nudged me:

Do you think I dont know what you young people are up to? Remember, if you get pregnant, dont just indulge yourselves and decide to get rid of it. If you have it, our family can afford to raise it.

Oh, and theres that stuff on the nightstand

I was speechless. If the person I brought home wasnt satisfactory, would you still prepare the same way?

There are plenty of hotels outside; doesnt he have legs?

OMG, this mom is too funny. Is she really that afraid her daughter wont get married?

Me???
