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

Zhou Kang sat down on the edge of the bed, his thoughts still somewhat complicated.

This was his fourth blind date, and the most unusual one.

In the past, blind dates always came with a specific purpose.

Liu Wenyan demanded a house, a car, a bride price, and that her salary be handed over to her.

Jiang Yirou wants money, a house, a car, and support payments for her parents.

Although Xiao Wanjun had high standards, they were based on her own family's circumstances and a desire for a good match, which differed from the previous two women.

Liu Wenyan and Jiang Yirou's motivations stemmed from greed and a lack of self-awareness.

Tian Tian, ​​on the other hand, was a drowning person.

She was just trying to grasp at a straw in her despair.

She did not demand that Zhou Kang help her, nor did she use any means of coercion or inducement.

She simply wanted a beautiful memory, even if it was fake.

Zhou Kang thought for a moment, then got up and carefully began to grope Tian Tian's body.

He quickly found her ID card in the small wallet he had found in her denim shorts.

Zhou Kang took out his phone and dialed a number that had just popped into his mind.

"Hey? Li Guoqiang? Do you recognize who I am?"

A mature male voice came from the other end of the phone: "Mr. Zhou, how could I not recognize your voice? What can I do for you?"

"I have an urgent task." Zhou Kang glanced at the information on the ID card. "I'm sending you someone's identification information now. Help me find her mother."

"His mother is a gambler and has some debts. After finding her, bring her to apartment 304 in the Sun Island LOFT apartment complex before 8 a.m. tomorrow."

"Remember, don't hurt her, but don't let her get away either. People from the casino might cause her trouble. Take a few extra people with you, and while you're at it, find out who these people are and where they're hiding."

"Understood, Mr. Zhou. I'll arrange the manpower right away," Li Guoqiang replied crisply.

"If those casino people dare to make a move, you can defend yourselves. But don't provoke trouble, understand?"

"Understood, I guarantee I will complete the mission."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Kang turned around and glanced at Tian Tian, ​​whose face was still streaked with tears.

A girl like that shouldn't be ruined by a mother like that.

I'll help you this once, let's see what you choose.

……

The next morning, sunlight streamed into the bedroom through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Tian Tian slowly opened her eyes and sat up groggily.

Looking at the unfamiliar room, I instantly became fully awake.

This is where?

She looked down at herself and saw that her clothes were still neatly on, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

At that moment, the bedroom door was pushed open.

Zhou Kang walked over with a cup of hot milk.

"woke up?"

"Zhou... Brother Zhou Kang..." Tian Tian's face flushed red instantly. "Where...where is this?"

"My apartment." Zhou Kang handed over the milk. "Do you remember what happened last night?"

What did she say last night?

She arranged for Zhou Kang to go on a blind date with her?

She said she wanted to be in a relationship?

She also said... "If Zhou Kang really were her boyfriend, that would be great?"

Good heavens! How could she say such shameful things!

"I...I remember everything..." Tian Tian wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground. "I'm sorry, Brother Zhou Kang, I drank too much yesterday and talked a lot of nonsense..."

"I...I'll go back now, I won't bother you anymore..."

She put down the milk and was about to get out of bed and leave.

Zhou Kang stopped her, asking sternly, "Where are you going? Back to have your mother sell you to the casino owner?"

"If that's the case, then you should leave."

Tian Tian sat stiffly on the bed, unable to speak.

"You studied law, and even though you dropped out, you must know that gambling debts aren't protected by law, right?"

"Actually, your mother doesn't need to pay back the three million she owes, right?"

"I...I know..." Tian Tian's voice trembled, "But they will retaliate against my mother..."

"I've already protected your mother. Do you want to see her?" Zhou Kang said calmly.

"What?!"

Tian Tian suddenly raised her head, her eyes filled with shock.

She never expected Zhou Kang to do this.

"So now, what's your choice?" Zhou Kang looked into her eyes. "Go back with your mother? Or..."

Tian Tian opened her mouth, but found that she had no idea what to say.

She didn't want to go back with her mother, but she couldn't just stand by and watch her mother die.

"Brother Zhou Kang... what should I do?" she asked, her voice trembling with tears.

"I think you can call the police and report that casino owner," Zhou Kang said, enunciating each word clearly.

Tian Tian shook her head frantically: "No, they'll retaliate against me and my mother..."

"Won't."

Zhou Kang shook his head: "If you report the gambling den, the police will provide special protection for you and your mother. My people will also protect you and your mother."

"But the premise is..." He looked at Tian Tian seriously, "You need to break off contact with your mother."

"What?!" Tian Tian's eyes widened. "But... but she's my only family in the world..."

"Relatives?"

Zhou Kang scoffed and coldly asked, "Does that mean family members can push each other into a fire pit?"

"She's your mother! And yet she's trying to sell you!"

"Does someone like that deserve to be your family?!"

Tian Tian was stunned by his words, and tears streamed down her face.

Zhou Kang took a deep breath, his tone softening again:

"You have your own life to live, and you shouldn't let yourself be held back like this. You should go to university and become the person you want to be."

"I will only give you one chance to choose; whether you can seize it is up to you."

Tian Tian stared blankly at Zhou Kang.

"Bring it in!"

The bedroom door opened, and two bodyguards in black suits led in a middle-aged woman with disheveled hair and a haggard face.

The woman pounced on Tian Tian as soon as she saw her.

"Sweetie! My darling daughter! Are you alright? These people brought me here, I thought something had happened to you!"

Tian Tian subconsciously took a step back, but was still hugged by the woman.

"mom……"

"Sweetie, Mom knows she was wrong." The woman held Tian Tian's hand, tears welling up in her eyes. "Mom will never gamble again. Please forgive Mom this once."

"If you help Mom pay back this three million, Mom promises to be a good person from now on and never cause you any more trouble..."

Tian Tian bit her lip, unable to speak.

Seeing that Tian Tian remained silent, the woman's eyes darted around, and she suddenly looked at Zhou Kang.

"You're that rich boss who likes female news anchors, right?"

The woman sized Zhou Kang up and down, a shrewd glint in her eyes: "I see you're quite fond of our Tian Tian, ​​haven't you taken a liking to her? How about this, give me three hundred... four million and I'll marry Tian Tian to you. What do you say?"

"Our Tian Tian is a student at a prestigious university, a top streamer with hundreds of thousands of followers! Most importantly, she's still a virgin!"

"Don't you bosses just like clean-cut young girls like this? How about four million? Not expensive, right?"

Tian Tian's face turned deathly pale instantly. She looked at her mother in disbelief, her whole body trembling.

"Mom... what... what are you saying?!"

"I am your biological daughter!"
