Spoiled Marriage Seduces People

  She covered up the dark circles under her eyes from not sleeping well the night before with a thick layer of foundation, and when she came out of the room carrying her bag, her grandmother had already prepared breakfast. She glanced at her and shook her head, asking, "Didn't sleep well again last night?"

  Mei Jia smiled and said: "I'm glad, finally someone is willing to want me."

  Her grandmother glared at her but didn't say anything else, just letting her eat breakfast before leaving.

  Mei Jia still goes to work, but she won't rush to go on blind dates after work. Lin Yan in the office seems to have noticed this and asks Mei Jia across the desk: "Mei Jia, why haven't you been on blind dates lately?"

  Mi Jia smiled faintly and nodded, saying: "Mm, it's over."

  "How could it be, those terrible blind dates scared me off?" In Lin Yan's concept, if someone has fallen to the point where they can only find a partner through blind dates, then that person must have some problem, either physical or psychological. Because people without problems would never choose such an outdated way of finding love, only those who are born with a narrow social circle, unattractive appearance, tight budget, or physical defects would be left with no choice but to resort to blind dating.

  Of course, when Mijia first mentioned that she wanted to find a partner through blind dating, she was shocked. After all, in the two or three years they had worked together, Mijia was not within her expected range.

  Mika didn't lift her head, she just stretched out her hand to take the documents on the table and continued working on the unfinished plan in her hands. By the way, Mika's department was the Planning Department.

  "Really, Mika, you wouldn't have actually encountered some kind of extreme man, would you?" The other colleagues in the office also curiously asked.

  Mei Jia didn't raise her head, and her hands continued to flip through the documents as she said, "I really have met a top-notch one before."

  "Tell me, what's the extreme method?" Lin Yan was obviously very interested in this. Although she disliked blind dates, she was actually quite curious about the extremes they encountered during their blind dates.

  Putting down the file, looking at Lin Yan's curious face, he smiled and said: "I met someone who only ordered a cup of milk tea for me during a blind date. When it was time to leave, she even drank my unfinished milk tea in one gulp. Isn't that extreme?" Mika thought he was just telling a joke and looked relaxed.

  Lin Yan shuddered all over, with a look of disgust on her face: "Ew, how disgusting! Are there really men like that?" How can there be such a man, it's too disgusting!

  Mi Jia shrugged and didn't say anything more.

  "Meijia, so you were scared back by him and didn't dare to go on blind dates again?" asked Zongge, who was sitting behind Zhang Jie.

  Mei Jia turned her chair around and said to him: "No, it's because I've already found the right person."

  "Is Mr. Gu here?"

  It was unclear who asked, but the entire office suddenly fell silent.

  After a few seconds of silence, Mitya came back to his senses and smiled faintly at everyone, saying: "No, he's a military man."

  The entire office was quiet, as if only everyone's breathing sounds were left, no one spoke, they just stared at Mitya fixedly.

  Mei Jia didn't say another word, just smiled and turned her head away, continuing to work on the unfinished business plan in her hand.

  The man standing at the door, looking east, didn't know when he had arrived. He stood fixedly at the entrance, staring at the woman in the office who was intently focused on a document with her head down. The file that was originally in his hand was tightly clenched, and he closed his eyes in some pain before finally speaking up: "Mitya, come over here for a moment."

  Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at the entrance and only then did they notice Gu Xiangdong standing there. Someone let out a tense gasp of air, which was clearly audible in the quiet office.

  Meijia stood up, turned her head and saw Gu Xiangdong standing at the door, she was slightly surprised, but after the surprise passed, she was calm, just nodded and said: "Okay." Put down the documents in her hand and walked towards him.

  Gu turned around and walked directly towards his own office.

  In the office, Gu Xiangdong stood with his back to Mijia in front of the large floor-to-ceiling window, his hands clasped behind his back.

  "Director Guo, what can I do for you?" Mijia stood behind him.

  Gu Xiangdong slowly turned around, looking at her with an expression that seemed a bit hurt, and asked: "Mijia, would you rather marry a complete stranger than accept me?"

  Mi Jia looked at him, unmoved by his injured expression and pained tone, and calmly said: "Director Gu, I thought you called me in because of official business."

  "Don't change the subject, answer me!" Gu Xiangdong stepped forward, grasping Mijia's shoulder tightly and shaking it. "I've known you for 10 years, tell me where I went wrong, why are you willing to marry someone you've only known for a few days but won't accept my feelings?" Gu Xiangdong's emotions were somewhat agitated, his grip on Mijia's shoulder was also quite strong, pinching slightly.

  The pain that came from her shoulder made Mika wrinkle her brow, looking at him and saying: "I don't want a marriage without feelings." It was precisely because she knew how he had felt about her all along, so even if she couldn't find anyone else, she wouldn't consider marrying him, because she didn't want to have any regrets later on that would make it impossible for them to even be friends.

  "Haha......haha......" Gu Xiangdong looked at her and suddenly burst out laughing, "Just because I have feelings for you, just because I like you, loved you for 10 years?!"

  Mei Jia turned her head away and didn't look at him, she always treated him as a friend, as an elder brother.

  "Let her go," Gu Xiangdong said with some heartache. "Mijia, you can refuse me, but you have to know that not everyone will become like your parents, and not all love stories end in tragedy. Why can't you be brave and try? You're treating your own happiness as a joke!"

  Mei Jia shook her head, "Marriage, as long as you don't take it to heart, you won't get hurt. Even if he really can't resist temptation and abandons his family in the future, I'll just turn around and leave, no need to linger." This was why she insisted on not having feelings, because she had made the worst assumptions and prepared for the worst outcome, just like that song said, as long as there's love, there's pain, but if there isn't, then there won't be any pain, and leaving would allow her to turn around with ease.

  "I'm telling you, I can guarantee that for the rest of my life, I won't stray and will treat you with a true heart. Can't you really consider me again?" Gu Xiangdong looked at her, making one last plea.

  Mika shook her head and apologized, "Sorry, senpai."

  Gu Xiangdong smiled bitterly, let her go, turned around and looked out the window again. After a while, he whispered: "You can leave."

  Mei Jia didn't say another word, nodded and turned around to leave the office.
