They became stronger through blind dates, and all their wishes came true.

Zhou Kang looked at the time on the light screen.

[Time spent together: 29 minutes and 25 seconds / 30 minutes]

There are 35 seconds left.

He finally couldn't help but ask, "Sister Liu, you've said so much, so what can you offer?"

Liu Wenyan was stunned for a moment, as if she had heard something unbelievable, then roared angrily:

"Me? What can I offer? I'm offering myself! You couldn't find a woman as sensible and considerate as me, someone you'd be proud to be seen with! I'm giving you the opportunity to take care of me, and you're asking me what I can offer?"

She became more and more excited as she spoke, and her spittle almost flew out of her mouth.

"Let me tell you, the line of guys chasing me stretches all the way to France! If it weren't for the fact that you're a college student, relatively naive and easy to fool... ugh, relatively naive and easy to get along with, I wouldn't be sitting here listening to your nonsense!"

"Since you're so inconsiderate, I'll add another clause: you booked this order, so go pay the bill later, and while you're at it, go downstairs and buy me that Estée Lauder set I was eyeing earlier as an apology."

[System record request[5]: Estée Lauder premium luxury skincare set]

The system's countdown finally reached its final few seconds.

We arrived in 30 minutes.

The system notification sounded in his ear, but Zhou Kang had no interest in listening to the woman's incessant chatter and focused on the system rewards.

[Ding! The blind date time limit has been met. System is processing the settlement...]

[All the demands made by Liu Wenyan, the blind date, have been detected and are being converted into host assets/abilities...]

[Congratulations, host, you have obtained:]

[1. Property certificate and keys for a 128㎡ fully furnished apartment in Binjiang No.1 Courtyard (already in a backpack)]

2. Porsche Panamera Turbo S Executive Extended Edition (Vehicle parked in underground garage, keys in pocket)

3. Cash of 876,000 yuan (already transferred to the host's bank card)

[4. Zhaocai Bank Black Gold Card (Your wealth management account is activated and is expected to generate a fixed monthly income of 50,000.00 yuan)]

[5. Estée Lauder Re-Nutriv Ultimate Lift Regenerating Youth Set (already placed in backpack)]

Zhou Kang reached into his pocket. He had been somewhat unsettled by Liu Wenyan's twisted logic, but the moment he touched the key with the shield emblem, he calmed down.

He looked up, a gentle smile on his face.

That smile made Liu Wenyan feel inexplicably uneasy.

"Sister Liu is right. I didn't think it through. That set you mentioned is available for purchase. All the previous conditions can also be met."

"That's more like it." Liu Wenyan nodded in satisfaction.

She likes men who are sensible, know their own worth, and know how to cherish the opportunities at hand.

"Since you've made your requirements so clear, I should also tell you my standards, just to avoid any trouble in our future interactions, right?"

Zhou Kang spoke slowly, his tone so sincere that no one could find fault with him.

"Go ahead, I'm listening," she said magnanimously, stirring her coffee slowly.

Zhou Kang organized his thoughts: "First, regarding the house. I understand that you, Sister Liu, require a large, single-level apartment of over 120 square meters in the city center. However, since it's a wedding home, both sides need to contribute to show sincerity, right?"

"So my requirement is that the woman must also have a property of the same size in the city center as part of her dowry."

"That way we'll have two properties, one to live in and one to rent out. Wouldn't that make life more comfortable? Sister Liu, didn't you just say you wanted security? Two properties are always better than one, right?"

Liu Wenyan paused, her eyes becoming wary.

"And the car," Zhou Kang continued, his tone still gentle.

"I have no objection to Sister Liu wanting a Porsche Cayenne or Panamera. However, I feel one car isn't enough. What if I drive it out and Sister Liu needs a car later? Taking a taxi would be too degrading."

"So it would be best if the bride also had a BMW X5 or Audi Q7 as part of her dowry. That way, we could each have one, making it convenient to go out and avoiding conflicts over the car. Don't you agree?"

Liu Wenyan's expression began to turn sour, and her lips were pressed into a thin line.

Zhou Kang pretended not to notice and continued, "Sister Liu is absolutely right about the financial control; we really can't let men spend money recklessly. But I think that if you're going to manage the money, you have to have the skills to manage it."

"Therefore, I hope that the woman has at least a Certified Public Accountant or Financial Analyst qualification, so that she can manage the household professionally and also preserve and increase the value of the assets."

"Sister Liu, do you have any certificates in this area? If not, you'll need to take one before we get married, but you'll have to pay for the course yourself."

"In addition, I agree to the 50,000 yuan monthly allowance, but the woman also has to give me 50,000 yuan a month for living expenses."

"After all, men have a lot of social engagements outside, and it costs money to treat people to meals and maintain relationships. I can't afford to lose face in front of my friends, can I? Sister Liu, you just said that we need to look good when we go out, and isn't that face built on money?"

Liu Wenyan's face had turned completely dark, and her chest was heaving violently, clearly suppressing her anger.

But Zhou Kang hadn't finished speaking.

"As for the bride price, 880,000 is indeed a good number, auspicious." Zhou Kang nodded, looking serious.

"But since the groom's family is required to provide a bride price of 880,000 yuan, the bride's family should also provide a dowry of 880,000 yuan, right?"

"The bride price and dowry are all for our future little family. Let's pool together 1.68 million yuan, which sounds like 'prosperity all the way,' isn't that auspicious? What do you think, Sister Liu?"

Liu Wenyan's face went from red to white, then from white to green. She stared intently at Zhou Kang, her voice trembling slightly:

"You...you're playing me?"

"No," Zhou Kang said, spreading his hands with an innocent look on his face.

"I'm just following your logic, Sister Liu. You said divorced women are like fully furnished apartments, so aren't unmarried men like apartments under construction? Isn't it normal for apartments under construction to be more expensive?"

"You say women need security and protection, but don't men need that too? What if you run off with the money after we get married? So the woman also needs to have corresponding proof of assets. This isn't a requirement, this is..."

Zhou Kang, with a mocking expression, used the words she had said before: "Basic guarantee!"

Liu Wenyan's face had turned a deep purplish-red. She stood up abruptly, her high heels stomping on the floor with a piercing sound.

The coffee shop suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at their table.

"Are you out of your mind?! Who talks about blind dates like that?!"

"So, Sister Liu, your conversation just now was normal?"

Zhou Kang also stood up, a polite smile on his face.

"You wanted a house, a car, money, and a dowry, and I listened to everything without uttering a single objection. Now that I'm making some comparable demands, how come I'm considered crazy?"

"I'm a woman, you're a man! How can that be the same?!" Liu Wenyan screamed, completely ignoring the stares coming from those around her.

"Oh, so there's a gender discrimination clause too." Zhou Kang nodded in sudden realization.

"Let me add one more thing: I require the woman to be a virgin, over 1.7 meters tall, weigh no more than 100 kilograms, be no older than 22, have a bachelor's degree or above, be gentle and virtuous, and be able to handle both social and domestic duties."

"How about it, Sister Liu? Do you meet these requirements?"

Liu Wenyan was so angry that she trembled all over, pointing her finger at Zhou Kang, unable to speak for a long time.

Zhou Kang took out his wallet from his pocket, pulled out two red bills, and placed them on the table:

"Sister Liu, you've really opened my eyes today. You're right about one thing: a fully furnished apartment is indeed worry-free, but that's on the condition that the quality of the renovation is up to standard."

He gave Liu Wenyan a meaningful look.

"I wouldn't dare take a house like yours, which looks glamorous on the outside but has problems inside."

"If the paint peels off the walls or the pipes leak one day, the repairs will cost more than buying a new house. I can't afford to pay for that."

After saying that, he picked up his backpack and turned to leave.

"You! You stop right there!" Liu Wenyan shouted hysterically from behind, "Do you believe I'll get your aunt to deal with you?!"

Zhou Kang waved his hand without turning his head: "Please do as you please."

Ignoring Liu Wenyan's furious shouts, Zhou Kang pushed open the door and walked out of the coffee shop.

The afternoon sun felt warm and cozy on my skin.

Feeling the sunshine, Zhou Kang felt incredibly relaxed and happy.

He had been holding back those words for a long time.

Do you really think you're so easy to fool, a college student?

However, I must say the system is really powerful; it actually delivered on all the promises!

However, it's really hard to say how these houses and cars came about.

I have neither a driver's license nor any intention of getting married.

If all else fails, rent it out to earn some rent.

However, that Estée Lauder set was very useful.

It's perfect to take it back and give it to my mom.

After all, she is a woman who truly cares for me and deserves the best.
