Live-streamed dating: My information is constantly updated

Chapter 286 She Dislikes Me
"If we're talking about developing feelings, Brother Zhang, am I getting a little too old?"

The girl on the video call sounded a little embarrassed:
“I’m not the kind of girl who expects to meet her Prince Charming at 30. I know that it’s harder for a woman to get married as she gets older.”

"Even if I do get a boyfriend, I'll be in my mid-thirties by then. Plus, given my poor circumstances, even if we have feelings for each other, he might not be willing to marry me, right?"

"Hmm?" Zhang Zhe immediately retorted, "Sister, why would you think that?"

"Marriage is just an important milestone in a relationship. It is neither the beginning nor the end. After you get married through an arranged marriage, don't you need to cultivate feelings between you and your spouse?"

"You can get a divorce even if you're married and your relationship isn't good."

"Feelings always need to be cultivated, but for you, doing this will make it easier to get married."

"Of course, if you just want to experience the wedding process, then never mind what I said."

"Um... okay, Brother Zhang, you're right."

"If I disregard my debt situation and bring a dowry of 100 million yuan when I marry into the family, would that be enough to find a relatively good man?"

"Of course." Zhang Zhe realized that he had underestimated this girl's abilities; her father must have made quite a few arrangements when he went abroad.

"Sister, I'm just curious, when you say 100 million, will it be given as a dowry in the form of a car and a house, or in kind like gold bars?"

"Is cash acceptable?"

"Huh?" Zhang Zhe blinked. "So extravagant? You owe money, is it okay to flaunt your wealth like this?"

“Of course,” the girl replied. “Actually, I don’t have that much money right now, but my dad said that if I really run out of money, he can find a way to get some more from the bank.”

"Loaning a few hundred thousand shouldn't be a problem."

"Actually, the bank still gives me some gifts during holidays and festivals. I'm considered an important customer of theirs. If I run away, they'll probably be worried sick."

Oh no, this person really did owe money.

I have a cousin who owes the bank over 100 million yuan. Now, people are asking him every day if he's doing well, and last month he lent out another 5 million yuan.

I think she could find someone willing to lie down and let him take out all sorts of loans, and then the two of them could live happily together.

Oh, I see. I thought she was looking for a man to pay off her debts.

With such a huge debt, how can she possibly pay it back on her own? We can only wait for her father to figure something out.

“That makes sense.” Zhang Zhe couldn’t help but laugh when he heard what the girl said.

"But then again, with this money, you can live quite comfortably on your own."

"If you're looking for a partner, wouldn't you need to prioritize feelings or emotions?"

After listening to Zhang Zhe's words, the girl calmed down and thought about it carefully. Suddenly, she whispered, "I'm going!"

Then, in a normal volume, he said, "Brother Zhang, you're absolutely right."

"I'm living a pretty comfortable life now. If I were to find a man and not get along with him, I'd rather not get married."

"Yes," Zhang Zhe nodded with a smile, "That's why I asked you before, why do you want to get married?"

"Okay, I misunderstood before. I thought you were questioning whether I met the requirements for marriage."

"Sorry, Brother Zhang." The girl smiled and quickly sent some small gifts as a token of her appreciation. Anyway, she could pay for it at the bank, so she didn't feel bad about spending it.

"Sister, you're too kind."

"Keep it up. With your current situation, entering the dating market now is a breeze. You might just meet your Mr. Right."

"Haha, thanks for the kind words, Brother Zhang."

This girl is very straightforward; she kept sending gifts to express her gratitude after saying thank you, making Zhang Zhe seem like he was asking the audience for gifts.

During the break after she ended her mic session, the viewers in the live stream analyzed her mindset and unanimously concluded that she was simply lonely.

She's currently staying with relatives, and while her material life is alright, she has no hope for the future. She can't really expect to work and earn money to pay off tens of millions of yuan in debt, can she? If there were a guy around right now to eat, drink, and have fun with, her life would suddenly become much more colorful.

This also indirectly proves that Zhang Zhe's suggestion was correct.

This girl doesn't necessarily have to get married. If she feels lonely or isolated, she can find a boyfriend and slowly start a relationship. Having someone to rely on is enough.

As for marriage, let nature take its course.

This is the normal mindset of someone who is lying down and doing nothing.

"It can only be said that this woman does not have a clear enough understanding of her situation."

"The mindset I developed when I was living a good life has persisted."

Zhang Zhe gave a brief summary and then continued the live stream with the next viewer.

The person who consulted this time was a new applicant in the live stream, and without saying a word, they immediately gifted Zhang Zhe 200 yuan worth of virtual gifts.

If this guy hadn't sent him gifts, Zhang Zhe wouldn't have noticed that the other person had his level 13 fan badge.

"Dude, when did you secretly spend so much money?"

"I only send gifts occasionally, mainly because you, Brother Zhang, really do speak very well."

"Thank you, brother, you're too kind." Zhang Zhe clasped his hands together in gratitude. This kind of big brother who secretly sends gifts is the one who deserves the most thanks.

While the top ten spenders on the leaderboard are important, the popularity and ranking of the live stream are usually maintained by these spenders who quietly send small gifts.

"Just ask me any questions you have, and I'll definitely help you analyze them."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Zhang. My situation is this: I met my current girlfriend online."

"I'm a programmer, and my girlfriend is 5 years younger than me. She's a live streamer, and she's quite pretty. We've been together for about a year now."

"Wait a minute..." Zhang Zhe interrupted, "You two didn't get to know each other because you sent her gifts, did you?"

“Yes, that’s right,” the older brother replied confidently.

Is this streamer's surname Zhou?

I get it, he's fallen for Brother Zhang now.

[The top fan has been dating me offline for a year. Is he already tired of me, or has someone else stolen his girlfriend?]

I'm a programmer too, and I really can't bear to spend money on gifts for female live streamers; I feel like they earn more than me.

"So you're her number one fan?"

"Yes."

"How much did you spend on her? How much has it been on the platform in total?"

"I didn't spend much on the platform. We mainly met offline. I took her on trips and gave her gifts. I probably spent tens or hundreds of thousands of yuan."

"You even take her on trips? Wow." Zhang Zhe gave his older brother a thumbs up.

Compared to this guy, Zhang Zhe's classmates and colleagues, who were also programmers, were utterly insignificant.

"So what problems do you have now?"

"The problem now is that I want to take our relationship to the next level, but she seems to dislike me."

The older brother said with a troubled tone:
"She would say things like... I'm a bit chubby, and I look old, etc. In short, the feeling I got was that she wasn't really interested in taking things to the next stage with me, like meeting my parents or something."

"I'd like you to take a look at this and tell me what's going on, Brother Zhang?"
