Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei

"Grandpa, why are you asking my parents to look into River's background?" Romina questioned. "I'm not marrying him. There's no need to dig through his family tree."

She added, "You're not thinking River and I will actually end up together, are you? Sure, I admit he's a decent guy, but we don't get along. His Yantail and our Lafond family are business rivals. I'll arrange two blind dates for him every day this month. I'm sure can take care of his 'life event.' If I match him with someone, I'll be his matchmaker-and the thankyou gift better be two major business deals."

Romina looked pleased with her plan.

Old Mr. Lafond replied, "Do you really think River's that easy to deal with? He agreed to those blind dates, but only on the condition that you go with him each time and treat him to dinner. So, basically, you're dining with him every day for a month. Who knows what kind of rumors that'll spark?"

Romina said confidently, "I've got a mouth. If people get the wrong idea, I'll just clear it up." Her grandfather gave her a look. "And how exactly are you going to explain that? That you molested him and, to make up for it, you're finding him a girlfriend?"
