Live-streamed dating: My information is constantly updated

Chapter 297 How come I didn't know about this?

Zhou Ya? Zhang Zhe's thoughts were almost pulled back to that summer fifteen years ago.

However, he immediately remembered that his mother had said that this former "white moonlight" had gotten divorced last year and had no children.

Zhang's mother also inquired about her current situation.

"She contacted me, surely not to set me up on a blind date?" Zhang Zhe couldn't help but frown.

In his memories of youth, Zhou Ya was attracted to the type of student who was a sports student.

This was quite normal at that time. Back in school, half of the girls in my class who were in early relationships were dating athletes.

Zhang Zhe was initially puzzled. It was one thing for them not to like a top student like himself, who was among the top ten in the class, but instead they went to find a sports student who was at the bottom of the class?

It wasn't until he saw the top student in his class lamenting because his girlfriend had been stolen away by a sports student from another school that he realized that puppy love had nothing to do with grades.

If even promising students from Tsinghua and Peking Universities aren't as good as athletes, what else is there to say? Just wish them happiness.

However, it seems that the other person is not very happy now.

Zhang Zhe accepted the friend request and asked, "Did you need something?"

A few minutes later, the other party replied: "Zhang Zhe, you're back in Qing City? Why didn't you tell me?"

"???"

Why should I tell you? We haven't been in touch for over ten years, have we?

Zhang Zhe's reply was very direct:

"Just get to the point. We're all getting on in years, there's no need to waste time."

"it is good."

I'm calling you to ask if you're still single.

"No, I'm getting married soon," Zhang Zhe replied confidently. "I've already met your parents, and our relationship is progressing smoothly."

"Haha, I see. Congratulations!"

"A girl who marries you will definitely be very happy."

"I was originally going to introduce my cousin to you."

"I heard you opened a matchmaking agency in Qing City? Are you working as a matchmaker now?"

Upon seeing the message from Zhou Ya, Zhang Zhe finally understood her intentions.

She actually came to find someone to introduce her to a potential partner...

Alarm bells immediately went off in Zhang Zhe's mind.

Under what circumstances would someone ask an old classmate they haven't contacted for over ten years to introduce them to a potential partner?

Most likely, he wanted to get the ticket for free and take advantage of their friendship. If it worked out, he might give Zhang Zhe a red envelope or something. If it didn't work out, he would just have used Zhang Zhe for free.
It's unlikely that she has no other options. Perhaps her reputation is ruined, or perhaps she simply can't find a husband through normal matchmaking. In any case, asking her old classmate for help is the best option she can currently choose.

“The matchmaking agency isn’t mine; I’m just working for the boss behind the scenes.” Zhang Zhe quickly lowered his profile: “Besides, I’m actually pretty incompetent as a matchmaker.”

"It's okay, I believe you."

"As you probably know, I got divorced last year."

“My parents both advised me to find someone else, but the matchmaking agencies they found for me were all scams.”

"I just heard you opened a matchmaking agency, so..."

Zhang Zhe immediately replied with an "I understand" emoji.

Then I sent the matchmaking agency's payment QR code.

Five seconds later, he received a "black guy with a question mark" emoji.

There was also a question from Bai Yueguang: "Old classmate, isn't this a bit too official?"

"I'm sorry, this is a mandatory requirement of our matchmaking agency."

"We charge a consultation fee of 99 yuan upfront. Even if the boss himself comes to the matchmaking event, he still has to pay."

"If you don't want to, you can also go to our live stream room, where you can get free consultations via live chat."

After answering, Zhang Zhe silently looked at his phone.

Unfortunately, no payment notification popped up.

Zhou Ya didn't pay; she just kept asking him for the link to her live stream.

Zhang Zhe smiled helplessly, thinking that this older woman might be a good source of material for a live stream, so he sent her his Little Red Book live stream channel.

Then remind her:
"When you're on a live stream, it's best not to say you know me, otherwise I'm afraid the viewers in the live stream will dox you."

"okay, thank you."

"When will you be live streaming? I'd like to ask you for advice."

"Around 8:30 PM," Zhang Zhe replied, then immediately changed his QQ status to busy.

If she can't even bear to spend 99 yuan, then she should just go to the live stream. Zhang Zhe was genuinely curious about what was wrong with this woman. Why was she being so stingy? Didn't her family used to drive her to and from school in a Mercedes? Had she fallen on hard times?
……

Soon, it was time for the evening live stream.

As soon as Zhang Zhe started his live stream, he received a request to connect with him.

Upon opening the other person's account, the face in the photo, though showing signs of age, still retained the charm of their youth.

This is Zhou Ya's account.

Zhang Zhe didn't hesitate and immediately accepted her call:

Hello, good evening, sisters.

"You can call me Brother Zhang."

"Okay, Brother Zhang." Zhou Ya's voice stammered a little, carrying a hint of nervousness from someone new to the profession: "Does this mean we're starting... starting the consultation?"

“Yeah, right. Or are you going to perform a show?” Zhang Zhe said with a smile. “Relax, this is just a normal live stream.”

"We were just talking about marriage and relationships."

This girl looks just like me!

[Is Brother Zhang being unusually gentle today?]

I think the idea of ​​performing a talent show is great; from now on, everyone who goes on stage should first showcase a talent.

"Oh, alright."

"Let's begin then." Zhang Zhe smiled at the camera and pointed to the whiteboard: "Come on, introduce yourself first."

"age?"

"30 is old."

"Go on, continue."

"I am 163 cm tall, weigh 95 catties, have an above-average appearance, a regular bachelor's degree, and currently work as an entrepreneur."

"As for annual income..."

Zhou Ya paused here, seemingly struggling a bit, and finally said:

"Currently, there is no balance between income and expenditure; in fact, there is no income at present."

"Hmm?" Zhang Zhe drew a zero and turned around to ask, "What kind of business are you talking about? Why is there no income?"

"I... own a dessert shop that sells small cakes. Business is so-so, and the current turnover is barely enough to cover the rent."

"What kind of dessert is it?" Zhang Zhe asked out of sheer curiosity.

The other party replied, "We sell soufflés."

"You should know what it is, right? It's one of those trendy mini cakes."

"..." Zhang Zhe paused for a moment. A soufflé cake shop? Could it be a quick opening?

"If you're free tomorrow during the day, you can join a live stream on 【Brother Yong's Restaurant Entrepreneurship Talk】 and let the host analyze your store's prospects."

"I have a feeling this might not be good."

"Alright, you can continue. What's your family situation? Are you an only child?"

"Of course she's an only child."

"However, my parents are divorced and have each started new families."

"Huh?" Zhang Zhe was slightly surprised; he hadn't heard about this.

What about your personal relationship status?

I am currently single.

"Have you been married?"

"We've been married once."

You call this being single?

[These sisters are pretty good.]

[It seems that women from divorced families are more prone to problems.]

Sigh, it seems like yet another tragedy stemming from a dysfunctional family.

[This woman speaks so timidly, I didn't expect she's divorced. Could she have been a victim of domestic violence?]

"Then you call it divorced, not single," Zhang Zhe corrected. "When seeking marriage counseling, don't always try to put things in a positive light. Let's be realistic. Anyway, it's all anonymous online, right?"

"If you're going to keep it a secret forever, how are you going to find a partner?"

“Okay.” Zhou Ya readily agreed, “Then I am… divorced twice.”
