Everything I bought on online shopping platforms was genuine.

Chapter 855 I suddenly felt that I wasn't so bad anymore
How embarrassing! It feels like I made a huge decision to tolerate someone's major flaw because of one of their strengths, and I thought I was losing out a little. But then I realized that they not only have no flaws, but are all strengths, and I've become the clown.

"Brother~~Why is my life so miserable~~~"

Inside the KFC, Lao Wan was wailing and crying, then he downed his coffee in one gulp and shouted, "Another cup, please!"

In response, Lin Mo silently took out a mask from his pocket and put it on. It was too embarrassing!
It's like you're drinking with a friend, he's drunk, you're not, and then he urinates in public. Just standing there, you'll be pointed at and gossiped about. The only thing you can do is step back and join the pointing and gossiping.

But it was clear at this point that he couldn't stay away, since he was the one who called Lao Wan out, so he could only wear a mask to preserve his already limited face.

Fortunately, ever since his identity as a Sichuan girl was revealed, he has made it a habit to keep a mask in his pocket, just in case he is recognized because of Li Shiya.

Sure enough, as long as this person isn't embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed.

"Alright, this is coffee, not alcohol. Don't use it to drown your sorrows, or you'll end up unable to sleep at night and crying all night."

"Besides, isn't it normal to fail at a blind date? Is this your first blind date?" Lin Mo said, trying to comfort her.

As a close friend, even when offering comfort, it's not the kind of gentle, comforting words, but rather a more stark and brutal truth.

Besides, a failed blind date isn't a big deal, why would he be so careful to comfort him?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
"Yeah, this is my first blind date. I never thought it would feel like to be rejected. I feel so bad!" Old Wan said, looking heartbroken.

Lin Mo rolled his eyes at him: "Then tell me yourself, shouldn't a girl as beautiful as her reject you?"

Old Wan: "Of course!"

Lin Mo: "Then what the hell are you feeling upset about!"

Old Wan: "Does being handsome have to be the only prerequisite for being loved?"

Lin Mo: "Uh, no, you can have lots and lots of money too!"

Old Wan: "Suddenly, I don't feel so bad anymore!"

Lin Mo:
Isn't that exactly right? Lao Wan, who graduated from junior college just six months ago, found a job in interior design in his hometown county. He comes from an ordinary family; he's not ugly, but he's not handsome either—just an average person.

He's an ordinary person with no education, no family background, no job, and no looks. He might be okay with an ordinary girl, but he saw the girl's picture earlier, and she was definitely a beauty. He just didn't know if it was photoshopped.

To put it simply, any girl who isn't physically disabled could easily find a man with very good prospects to marry.

Lao Wan's job is currently unstable, and his income doesn't seem to be much. After all, he knows the average wage in Nancheng, which is probably less than 3000 yuan.

If it were a kindergarten teacher, receptionist, or waiter, the salary would only be around two thousand yuan. Even if Lao Wan's salary is decent, it would only be around three to four thousand yuan at most.

"Jinzi, do you think I have no chance to turn things around?" After calming down, Lao Wan couldn't help but ask.

It's clear that he was still a little resentful and felt embarrassed by such a blunt rejection.

"Yes, I have!"

"what?"

"After the seventh day of the lunar new year, buy a plane ticket to the capital or Shanghai, go there and try your luck for a few years. There are more opportunities there, and you might even make it big. Who knows, you might even become a big boss!" Lin Mo said.

After all, there are plenty of people who drift to Beijing or work in other cities, so why does that place attract so many young people? Isn't it because there are opportunities there?
Even if the chances are slim, it's enough to entice many young people to jump in. Although many young people don't know what they'll do after they get there, it's as if they'll figure it out as they go along.

However, the vast majority of people go there to work for a few years, and then choose to return to their hometown to develop their careers after seeing the reality, and then get married and have children.

"Is there a way with a higher probability, preferably still in our hometown?" Old Wan asked somewhat embarrassedly.

It's obvious that he knows his own limitations. Although it's said that a tree dies when transplanted, but a person thrives, a person won't suddenly become successful just by moving to a big city.

The probability of developing in the capital city, Shanghai, is actually not much smaller than winning the lottery if you calculate it carefully.

“Back in your hometown? There are some. Why don’t you take the civil service exam? Once you get a government job, you won’t have to worry about finding a girlfriend. Maybe even that girl with those qualifications will be interested in you,” Lin Mo said.

Although this province isn't known for its intense competition for civil service positions, those with official government jobs are still highly sought after, especially in the marriage market.

Wang's salary is high now, he received more than 30,000 yuan at the beginning of this month, but in his hometown, a small county, he is still not as sought after as a civil servant who only receives 3,000 yuan.

The biggest reason for this is stability, and the second is the implicit benefits. "Take the civil service exam? Can my brain handle it?" Old Wan said, clicking his teeth.

Lin Mo: "If you don't want to endure any hardship, will money just magically appear in your pocket? Back in our hometown, besides being a self-employed individual or running your own business, taking the civil service exam is the safest option."

“That’s true, then I’ll keep an eye out for news in this area this year and give it a try,” Lao Wan nodded.

Old Wan's emotions came and went quickly; he soon regained his composure.

After finishing their coffee, the two decided to go to Chunfeng Internet Cafe to experience the service quality for three yuan. Lin Mo was also a little curious whether that internet cafe was still a viable place to play games.

As they walked out, Lao Wan said, "Brother, I'm still a little unconvinced. Do you think there's any way I can get back at him after being rejected on this blind date?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo replied without turning his head, "Yes, I have an aunt who works in matchmaking. Give me 500 yuan, and I'll have my aunt introduce you to two pretty girls!"

"Holy crap, you have connections like this? Really? Is it really that beautiful?" Old Wan asked, his eyes wide.

Hearing this, Lin Mo rolled her eyes at him: "Nonsense, of course she's beautiful. Once you get rejected by pretty girls a few more times, you won't feel bad anymore."

"Given your current situation, even if you're a pretty girl, I doubt you'd have a good chance with a divorced woman and a son!"

Lao Wan:
Is it heartbreaking? It's incredibly heartbreaking, but that's the truth. Getting him to get his revenge is too difficult. It's better to fight fire with fire. After being rejected so many times, he'll get used to it.

You can also find out your own worth in the dating market.

After all, words can intimidate a gentleman, and fine clothes can purify a scoundrel. If you have no clothes, you will be bullied; if you have no food, no one will know. We should respect the clothes first and then the person; we should respect the physical appearance first and then the soul. This is human nature.

Just as the two reached the car, someone suddenly called his name from the side.

"Lin Mo?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo turned around and found two familiar faces standing not far away: Han Xue and Wang Shanshan.

"Happy New Year to you all!" Lin Mo quickly greeted them with a cupped hand.

"It's the first day of the Lunar New Year," that's the common saying today.

"happy New Year!"

"Hello, what's going on between you two?" Han Xue asked.

Lin Mo smiled at this: "Old Wan insisted on taking me to an internet cafe for a while. Besides, at this hour, only places like internet cafes, shopping malls, and billiard halls are open. Even restaurants are mostly closed. Where else can we go?"

Indeed, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, even in the city, not many shops are open, otherwise he wouldn't have chosen to meet here.

There's no other reason than that there's still a movie theater here, so it's bound to be open.

"We're planning to go see a movie, why don't we go together?" Han Xue invited.

Lin Mo shook his head at this: "There are no tickets left, they're all sold out. Maybe next time. You two go ahead and go see it, don't worry about us!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Shanshan and Han Xue exchanged a glance and then said, "In that case, let's not go. Let's find somewhere to stay for a while."
"Let me tell you about yesterday's gathering. Even though you weren't there, you were the star of the show!"

Lin Mo was taken aback: "I didn't even go, how could it be my business?"

"Otherwise what? It's absolutely amazing. Some people praise you, and others criticize you. Tsk tsk tsk. Anyway, after going there once, I never want to go again. How about we find a place?" Han Xue said.

Hearing this, Lin Mo clicked his tongue. Sure enough, everyone talks about others behind their backs, and everyone is talked about behind their backs. But he was actually a little curious.

"What about your tickets?"

"What's there to be afraid of? Just cancel it. You can watch movies anytime. You don't see your old classmates very often!"

Lin Mo: "Get in the car!!"
