I'm terminally ill, and all they give me is a matchmaking system?

"Dad! I can do it! I don't want you to look down on me. I was wrong this time, and I shouldn't have felt sorry for myself. Tian Ge told me that I will definitely listen to you from now on."

"But Dad, Tian-ge, he..."

Liang Chuan couldn't forget the story of Lin Tian saying he was sick.

He almost blurted out the problem with Lin Tian's physical condition, but unexpectedly, Lin Tian, ​​who was standing next to him, quickly walked behind Liang Guoqing, shook his head slightly, raised his hand and put it in front of his mouth from Liang Chuan's perspective.

Liang Chuan didn't understand, but he did as instructed.

However, Liang Guoqing's curiosity was piqued.

"What's wrong with Xiaotian? Xiaochuan, why don't you continue?"

"It's nothing! Brother Tian just talked to me a lot, and I realized how stupid I've been! Dad, don't be angry. I promise I won't do it again next time."

Liang Guoqing gave him a reproachful look, but didn't say anything.

Just like that, time flew by, and the college entrance examination arrived in the blink of an eye.

To avoid making Liang Chuan nervous, Lin Tian chose to accompany him throughout the entire process.

Liang Chuan was naturally deeply moved.

Watching Liang Chuan enter the school where he was taking the exam, Lin Tian smiled and turned around to find a place to stay. However, as soon as he turned around, he saw Xu Mengyun standing there with a small leather bag on her back, her eyes filled with surprise.

"Mr. Lin...when was your child born? Is it because you had a child that your mother is forcing you to find a girlfriend?"

Xu Mengyun is someone who tends to overthink things.

Before Lin Tian could even reply, a whole drama was already playing out in her mind.

Lin Tian sighed and chuckled, "Do I look that old? Besides... that's not my child, that's my boss's child."

"Then why doesn't your boss come to send the child off in person? This is the first time I've ever seen a subordinate help send their child to school for the college entrance exam."

Xu Mengyun was somewhat unwilling to believe it, and looked at Lin Tian with a scrutinizing gaze.

Lin Tian felt even more helpless.

He had no choice but to tell the truth.

He had promised Liang Chuan that he wouldn't tell anyone about Liang Chuan's suicide attempt due to depression, but now that his own reputation was damaged, how could he not say anything?

Hearing Lin Tian's explanation, Xu Mengyun covered her mouth in shock.

"Really? That kid is under so much pressure... I remember he was very hardworking and diligent when he was in school, how could he have a mother like this?"

"That's probably why he's under so much pressure."

Xu Mengyun changed the subject, her eyes almost overflowing with joy, "Since I misunderstood you, Mr. Lin, are you free tonight? How about I treat you to dinner to express my apology? Besides, this is only our third meeting; if it were anyone else, we would have become friends long ago..."

"Aren't we friends yet?"

Lin Tian chuckled and asked in return.

They even exchanged contact information. If this isn't friendship, what is?

But at most, they are just friends who aren't very close.

"Exchanging contact information is just another way to make friends, but becoming friends requires contact! Mr. Lin, if you really consider me a friend, you should contact me more often."

Lin Tian smiled with admiration.

Little did he know, his smile held a number of implications for the woman in front of him!

Xu Mengyun completely forgot about her work. If a colleague hadn't suddenly arrived and brought her back to reality, she probably would have missed something important.

Xu Mengyun reluctantly bid farewell to Lin Tian.

Lin Tian exhaled a breath of stale air. For some reason, he felt that Xu Mengyun was quite outstanding, so outstanding that he was somewhat attracted to her.

However, despite being attracted to each other, Lin Tian soon had to choose to end their relationship for the sake of his life.

The system notification sounded in my mind:

[Ding! The system has detected that the host has not completed the first task. Please complete it as soon as possible!]

[Mission complete, reward: Grade A Life Extension Card, duration: 6 months (183 days)]

[Remaining lifespan: 92 days 18 hours]

There are only ninety-odd days left...

No wonder he looked so haggard when he left home this morning.

Lin Tian felt an inexplicable urge to rebel, but if he did, he would extinguish his hope of continuing to live.

His mother... is still waiting for him at home.

He couldn't bear to let his mother, an elderly woman, bury her son!

Holding his phone, Lin Tian agreed to meet Xu Mengyun.

Unbeknownst to him, Xu Mengyun, upon receiving his invitation, was overjoyed, practically jumping for joy.

Xu Mengyun never expected that Lin Tian's actions would be so unexpected.

At 3 PM, Liang Chuan walked out of the examination hall after finishing his exam. His usually introverted and taciturn face was now facing Lin Tianshi, who was standing at the school gate. The corners of his mouth instantly turned up in a smile.

"Brother Tian!!"

Lin Tian stood across the street eating an ice pop, waving at Liang Chuan.

squeak-

At the same time, my phone vibrated; it was a message from Xu Mengyun.

Are you free at six? Let's meet at Springfield, a restaurant downtown!

The vibrating phone made Lin Tian look up, and he saw a text message from Xu Mengyun in the middle of the lit screen.

His smile froze slightly, and when he came to his senses, Liang Chuan was already standing in front of him.

"Brother Tian! He said he went to the next city to open a shop, so we'll have dinner together tonight!"

Are you hungry now?

Liang Chuan shook his head, "I'm not hungry."

"Then I'll take you somewhere where we can study together. I need to meet someone later! After we meet that person, I'll take you out to eat."

Meet someone?

Liang Chuan wanted to ask, but he saw a hint of hesitation flash between Lin Tian's brows.

He didn't dare to speak for a moment, and could only nod silently in agreement.

Time quickly came to six o'clock in the evening.

Lin Tian, ​​who had been waiting in the restaurant for a long time, winked at Liang Chuan and then walked to the table that had been reserved in advance. Liang Chuan went out through a small door next to him to avoid bumping into the other person.

After Liang Chuan went outside, out of concern for Lin Tian, ​​he didn't leave immediately. Instead, he stood in the alley across the street, waiting patiently to see if the other person needed his help.

only!

When he saw who Lin Tian was going to meet, he was completely shocked.

"How could it be Teacher Xu?"

In the restaurant, Xu Mengyun dressed herself up beautifully, put on a super pink makeup, changed into a sweet outfit, and then sat down in front of Lin Tian.

"I never expected you to agree to my request! Lin Tian, ​​order whatever you want to eat, it's on me today."

Xu Mengyun was in a great mood and was about to take out the menu to order.

"Ms. Xu, I want to make this clear to you: I don't want to be in a relationship anytime soon. If you just want to be friends with me, then of course I'm willing. But if you have other ideas, I'm sorry, I'm not willing."

The hand flipping through the menu suddenly paused.

Xu Mengyun looked up in surprise at Lin Tian.

"You, what did you say?"
