After the divorce, I became a rich girl

Li Yan saw He Zhizhou coming over and looked at him carefully. His expression was as cold as usual, making it hard to guess what he was thinking.

He thought that He Zhizhou and Li Xuanbao would have some communication today, but He Zhizhou had been here for an hour and the two of them hadn't said a word, let alone exchanged glances. Li Yan didn't believe that the two of them didn't see each other, so they could only be deliberately avoiding each other.

Li Yan looked a little anxious. Now, Li Xuanbao and He Zhizhou were both single. If they still had feelings for each other, they shouldn't waste time testing each other. After all, they were both adult men and women, and they were not young anymore. Being straightforward would show sincerity.

He Zhizhou saw that Li Yan was staring at him, so he smiled and said, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Li Yan sighed and asked, "Why didn't you say a word to Xuanbao today?"

He Zhizhou looked at Li Yan and said, "If there is anything to discuss, we will naturally communicate."

Li Yan nodded helplessly, and said weakly: "It's up to you!"

He Zhizhou's mother Jiang Qin sat with Jing Qiu and several friends to chat. In fact, this birthday party was just a name. The only people who could come were good friends, partners, and heads of companies that might cooperate with him in the future.

Li Ronghua and Liang Yusen had already gone to the small reception room to discuss matters with several business leaders.

As for people like Jing Qiu who were not interested in business topics and did not want to dance, they gathered in groups of three or five, standing or sitting, chatting together. After all, although they did not work on weekdays, they also flew around the world and did not often live in Xishi, so it was difficult for good friends to gather together like this.

Jing Qiu looked at Jiang Qin and asked, "You are about to retire, right?"

Jiang Qin smiled and said, "Yes, I will retire in June next year."

Jing Qiu asked again: "What are your plans after retirement?"

Jiang Qin said helplessly: "I would like to have grandchildren, but I have to have them. The prefect is almost 40 years old and doesn't even have a girlfriend. I am really worried." Then, she said to the people present: "If you have a suitable candidate, please introduce him to the prefect!"

Several ladies smiled at each other, and one of them said, "Jingqiu, I really like the prefect's child. He is both excellent and self-disciplined. I have a niece who graduated from Huaqing University and is also a lawyer. How about I introduce them to each other?"

Hearing this, Jiang Qin asked happily, "How old is that girl?"

The lady replied, "I am 26 years old. Both my parents are professors at Huaqing University. I am the only daughter in the family."

After hearing this, Jiang Qin clapped her hands and laughed, "Oh, this is a great offer." Then she became worried, "I'm just afraid that the girl will dislike the prefect because he's too old. Nowadays, girls like young and handsome men, and the prefect is almost an old man!"

As soon as Jiang Qin finished speaking, the ladies present all laughed.

The lady comforted him, "The magistrate doesn't look old, but he has a mature and steady air that young people who have just entered the society can't match. My niece likes mature and stable men." As she spoke, she took out her mobile phone, opened the photo album, and found a selfie of her and her niece having afternoon tea a few days ago.

She handed the phone to Jiang Qin: "This is my niece, her name is Liu Zhiyin."

Jiang Qin looked at the photo of the girl on the phone screen, her eyes sparkling with satisfaction. The girl was very pretty, giving people a sense of elegance and intelligence, and she didn't have the sharp feeling that a lawyer should give people at all.

Jiang Qin quickly said to the lady, "Then you tell this girl about the prefect's situation. If she has no objection, find a time for them to meet. Even if they can't become boyfriend and girlfriend, they are both lawyers, so it's good to be friends!"

The lady took the phone and said, "Okay, I'll talk to her tomorrow. I'll call you back tomorrow night. If the two children have no objection, we'll arrange for them to meet."

Jiang Qin felt that it was worthwhile to attend today's banquet. She raised her red wine glass and said, "I'll toast you. I really hope that our two families can get married."

The lady raised her glass and clinked it with Jiang Qin, saying with a smile, "It is an honor for us to be soulmates!"

Jing Qiu couldn't help but feel sorry for Li Xuanbao when he saw how Jiang Qin found a blind date with excellent conditions for the prefect so quickly.

She originally thought that Li Xuanbao and He Zhizhou used to be boyfriend and girlfriend, and now they are both single again, so maybe they can get back together.

To be honest, Jing Qiu likes He Zhizhou very much. They have watched him grow up since he was a child. He is handsome, capable, and gentle to others. He is a rare candidate for a good son-in-law.

But before she could match Xuanbao and him, someone else got there first. However, although she and Jiang Qin could not become in-laws, she would be very happy as long as He Zhizhou could find someone he liked.

Zhong Yi looked around while drinking and saw Jiang Qin chatting happily with another lady at the same table. She even took the man's mobile phone to check it. From the flickering light in Jiang Qin's eyes, he guessed what was going on.

Zhong Yi poked He Zhizhou's arm with a smile, and when he turned around, he said with a sly smile: "Zhizhou, your mother is looking for a blind date for you!"

He Zhizhou looked at Zhong Yi in confusion and asked, "How do you know? From such a distance, your ears are quite sharp! Super hearing?"

Zhong Yi groaned twice and said, "Although I don't have super hearing, I have a pair of observant eyes. Your mother's expression just now is not exactly the same as my mother's expression when she wanted to introduce me to a blind date. It can only be said that they are almost the same." After saying that, he patted He Zhizhou's shoulder sympathetically and said, "Before you get married, this kind of blind date activity is indispensable!"

He Zhizhou slapped away Zhong Yi's hand on his shoulder: "You should just take care of yourself!"

Hearing the conversation between He Zhizhou and Zhong Yi, Li Yan and Xiao Yi looked in the direction of Jing Qiu and the others, and then looked at He Zhizhou with great sympathy. A group of mothers sat together, talking about jewelry, world scenery, and their children's marriage.

This kind of banquet, which is not for commercial purposes, is actually a large-scale blind date event. You see, many wives brought their sons and daughters to participate.

If you can't meet the right person here, then you can just come here to expand your circle of friends. If you meet the right person, that's great. Anyway, those who can come to the banquet all have assets, it's just a matter of more or less, and their family backgrounds are also comparable. As parents, they are naturally happy to see it happen.

Here, Zhong Xinlan took Li Jiawei and Li Xuanbao to socialize, and the three of them were so tired that they sat on the sofa by the window. The window faced the garden, with flashing lights and clusters of flowers, without any bleakness of winter.
