Live-streamed dating: My information is constantly updated

Chapter 300 Common Goal

"Brother Zhang, just say what you have to say." The older brother was very frank: "I can guarantee that there is absolutely no problem with my health. It was confirmed during the premarital checkup."

"No hurry, no hurry."

"I have another question: After you sell that apartment in Shenzhen, will you still be renting?"

“Yes, the 120 million yuan we lost is enough for 10 years of rent, and the place we rented is even bigger than our original house.”

“It has nothing to do with size.” Zhang Zhe shook his head.

The eldest brother is a bit too "calculating," so he still holds a grudge against his ex-wife for making him buy a house and for losing money in business.

Being calculating isn't a bad thing. For example, when buying a house in Shenzhen, the rent-to-price ratio is such that losing money is almost inevitable.

But some things can't be calculated. If life could be calculated, wouldn't all actuaries be winners in life?

"Brother, I feel really insecure being your wife if you act like this."

"For most families, their biggest fixed asset is their house. If something happens, they can sell the house to tide them over. But your house is rented..."

Before Zhang Zhe could finish speaking, his older brother impatiently retorted, "But my annual income is a stable 50 yuan, and it hasn't fallen below that amount in the last three years."

"Isn't my income enough to give my partner a sense of security?"

It's not like you handed over your income.

Bro, I rarely side with women, but you definitely have a problem.

Without a house or children, the feelings have probably faded; this kind of marriage really can't withstand the storms.

From your wife's perspective, she definitely feels insecure. But have you been keeping your income a secret from her?

"Buying a house is not just a matter of money."

"You can think of a house as an anchor point in life. A woman who is willing to start a family with you must be longing for stability."

"Houses are the foundation of stability."

"When you don't have the means, a woman can endure it, and may even struggle alongside you to settle down sooner."

"But you earn 50 a year and still have savings, why don't you buy a house now...?"

“So I bought it, and then I lost money.” The older brother interrupted Zhang Zhe and retorted, “Luckily I sold it early, otherwise I would have lost an extra million now.”

"Brother, let me finish speaking first." Zhang Zhe smiled helplessly.

"You have such a strong personality, being a boss really makes a difference."

"Excuse me, Brother Zhang, please continue."

"I promise I won't interrupt."

"It's okay, it's okay. First of all, we need to make it clear that you and your ex-wife are in the past."

"If you want to continue going on blind dates, a house is definitely a must..."

Zhang Zhe thought for a moment about how to put it. This older brother was old and might not be able to accept other people's opinions.

"Let me put it this way: if you have a house, the girls you go on blind dates with will know where you'll live in the future, how you'll raise your children, and how to get back to your parents' home."

"The house doesn't even need to be very nice. Take Shenzhen as an example, even an apartment, a talent housing, or even a small property rights house, the key is to give people certainty."

"Alright, brother, you can argue now." Zhang Zhe gestured to the camera, then started gulping down water.

"So, according to you, Brother Zhang, you can't go on blind dates if you don't own a house?" the older brother asked, puzzled. "With housing prices in Shenzhen, how many young people can afford to buy a house?"

Aren't you already 40? You don't need to worry about the young people's affairs.

[It's not that you have to live in Shenzhen; you can buy property and settle down in your hometown too.]

Actually, building a small villa back in your hometown would be the same.

[Brother's comprehension is really poor. Brother Zhang's core concept is to reduce risk and make women feel that you are reliable.]

"Brother, do you think the blind date is the end? Or is it just about getting a marriage certificate?"

"Don't you want to think about yourself? Look back at where you came from?" Zhang Zhe shrugged, not wanting to say anything more.

The older brother didn't refute this time because he did get married before he had a house, proving that such a woman could be found. However, they did have many conflicts about the house after marriage.

He finally gave in and said, "Okay, if the woman has any requirements, I can indeed buy a house."

"So, do you still want children?" Zhang Zhe asked. "Actually, even if you really want to be childless, you can still find someone."

"I'm not sure right now because I don't really have much energy to devote to my children; I'm quite busy with my business."

“…” Zhang Zhe sighed helplessly: “40 is supposed to be a time of no confusion, brother. Why don’t you go back and think things through first?”

"Are children important when going on blind dates?"

"It's not as important as a house, but you'll have to figure that out sooner or later..."

Zhang Zhe ultimately decided to give his older brother a more profound emotional experience, otherwise he was afraid the impression wouldn't be deep enough:

"Your previous marriage has already failed. If you still don't want to understand this issue, then there's a high probability that another failed marriage is already waiting for you."

[Wouldn't saying this be too hurtful to him?]

[No problem, a 40-year-old seems to completely misunderstand marriage.]

Don't worry, his next marriage is guaranteed to fail. This kind of programmer boss simply doesn't know how to handle relationships.

He'd be better off finding an 18-year-old, giving her some money each month, renting a place for her to live in, and supporting her.

"Okay, Brother Zhang, I understand what you said."

"Then I'll go down first?"

"Bye-bye!" Zhang Zhe waved his hand, clearly not listening to his older brother at all.

After all, he's a 40-year-old business owner; at his age, he can only listen to what he wants to hear.

Given his personality, the fact that he didn't immediately divorce his ex-wife when she lost money in her first business venture, but waited until the second time, suggests that he still had some feelings for her.

"I think it's because we don't have children," Zhang Zhe commented to the viewers in the live chat. "Seven years without children, and my wife doesn't work. She can't stand staying at home."

"On the other hand, his ex-wife really doesn't know how to enjoy life. She has no children and doesn't need to work. If she were one of the girls in the live stream, she would definitely be living the high life, right?"

[That bag took off]

To put it bluntly, that's what a life like in paradise is like.

[The main reason is that the man's business is getting better and better, and the woman is feeling uneasy.]

I initially thought the older brother's ex-wife was being difficult, but now I think both of them have issues.

[A couple that divorced after 7 years of marriage without infidelity definitely has some issues.]

"Being single is indeed very comfortable, but marriage is not necessarily the case."

Zhang Zhe smiled slightly. There were many single people in the comments section who weren't even close to getting married, and they hadn't grasped the point of the discussion.

Although he is not married, he has already felt that when both parties have common goals, the relationship will progress rapidly in the process of working towards those goals.

Just like now, Xia Yi spends all her free time in the live stream room, watching his live streams and giving him advice.

The two of them would also review the game together in the evening.

All of this was to help the matchmaking agency, or rather Zhang Zhe's business, get back on track as soon as possible.

"Hehe." Zhang Zhe chuckled and cleared his throat: "Come on, let's continue the live stream with the next lucky winner."

"Wait a moment, let me look for it."

Zhang Zhe wanted to prioritize male applicants because he would soon be doing a special session for teachers with Teacher Wang, and he expected to be surrounded by female teachers.

So let's neutralize it for now.
