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

As Lin Tian strode forward, Ru Lan watched his retreating figure, a feeling of affection welling up from the depths of her heart.

She raised the corners of her lips in a bitter smile.

It's ironic when I think about it now.

The man she loved for so many years was only someone she wanted to use.

But this stranger on a blind date was so humble that it instantly made her like him more.

Rulan frantically pulled her hat down to make sure it covered her face, then strode outside, deliberately lowering her voice as she passed Lin Tian.

"Thank you."

The two walked along the river outside the banquet hall.

On such a bright and sunny day.

But it inexplicably reminded him of the time he and Qin Yulan took a walk together by the river after leaving the banquet that night.

That night was truly unforgettable.

But I can never forget it.

He can't go back to the past either.

This is a hard-earned ten-plus years of life.

It wasn't a lot, but it wasn't a little either; it was enough to keep him alive for quite a long time.

As a person, you are inherently alone. In one's life, there are too many people who pass by in a hurry. In the first twenty years of his life, before he got sick, he rarely communicated with others.

Even if you work like a beast of burden, you still can't earn many silver notes.

Now, people are making money while extending their lifespan.

That's what makes life comfortable.

He shook his head, and the woman beside him spoke up at that moment: "By the way, I still don't know your name?"

"Lin Tian! Twin trees in the forest, the sky above the sky."

"Such a short name?"

The girl seemed a little surprised and turned to look at Lin Tian.

Lin Tian nodded and said, "My parents are not well-educated, so they chose a rather short name for me."

Instead of laughing at him, Rulan changed the subject and started chatting with Lin Tian about her boyfriend.

Rulan's attitude left one wondering whether she wanted to drive him away or to be honest.

But Lin Tian just stood there quietly, listening.

As she finished speaking, a tear rolled down Ru Lan's fair face.

Then I saw her force a helpless smile: "Do you think I'm stupid? How could I have fallen for a man like that? I've wasted so many years of my youth. Even though I haven't given up my hobbies or my job, my parents still look down on my behavior."

“I’ve been talking to him for almost five years! Five years isn’t a long time, but it’s not short either. How many five-year periods does a person have in their lifetime?”

"And you don't know, my parents finally relented a while ago and said they wanted to meet him. They even complained about me, saying that he had never mentioned meeting my parents after being with me for so long, so he must not be sincere. But I'm so focused on him and protecting him. I think I must be overthinking everything."

"But I never expected to catch him cheating on me today."

"I'm so ridiculous, aren't I?"

Lin Tian shook his head: "How could you think that way? He's the one who lied to you. He's the one who should reflect on his actions, not you! That man was blind. God is just using these few years to let you see the true nature of a man."

"See through a man's true nature?"

Rulan blinked and looked at Lin Tian beside her.

"And have you ever heard the saying, 'A blessed person doesn't go into a house without blessings'? If a man can't even stay true to himself after being with you, it means that even if he marries you, he won't be able to maintain his original intentions. You might as well break up sooner rather than later, because that way you can meet someone you truly love."

Really like it?

Ru Lan lowered her head and remained silent, unsure how to answer Lin Tian.

After a moment, she broke into a smile.

"I didn't expect Mr. Lin to be so knowledgeable. However, my parents had already arranged for me to bring him back this week. Now that things have come to this, I need to find a time to talk to my mother properly. Otherwise, it wouldn't be good to make things too ugly."

Lin Tian nodded, understanding the meaning behind the woman's words.

"In that case, would you like me to give you a ride? I happened to drive here."

"No need! But what you did today was really loyal. I've decided to be your friend. If it's convenient, would you like to add me on WeChat?"

As she spoke, Rulan handed over her phone.

The above is the QR code she opened.

Lin Tian was shocked, but he didn't hesitate. He nodded in agreement and exchanged contact information with her.

After seeing Rulan off to the car, a system notification sounded in my mind.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, mission complete!]

[Rewards are being settled...]

【Task Evaluation: None】

[Task Rating: B]

[Task Reward 1: Obtained a 60-day life extension card, already automatically used]

[Task Reward 5: Cash bonus of 3,000 yuan]

[Remaining life expectancy (in years): thirteen years]

[Please keep up the good work, host, and strive to expand your matchmaking business further.]

Lin Tian was shocked to see the rewards increase so much without his knowledge.

While he was shocked, he felt as if many memories that did not belong to him had been forcibly implanted into his mind.

He just knew.

Rulan may appear silly and innocent on the surface, but she can be incredibly cold and serious when it comes to work.

Lin Tian covered his head and swayed from side to side.

When he nearly fell, an elderly man rushed over to help him up.

"Young man, are you alright? You've been working too hard. Don't stay here any longer, go home and rest."

For older people, young people these days really love staying up late.

So it's normal to get sick.

After expressing his gratitude to the old man, Lin Tian drove back to the hotel to rest.

Downstairs, a series of curses and accusations could be heard.

"Didn't you say you were a master chef? How come you can't cook any of the dishes I told you about? This makes me very suspicious that you're really a master chef..."

"Mr. Fang, please believe me, I'll start learning right now. With my aptitude, I'll definitely be able to get the hang of it very quickly!"

"Fine? I'll give you two more hours. After two hours, I don't care how many dishes you can make, you have to make one dish to show me. If it's not satisfactory, you're going back to Yu's Restaurant!"

Lin Tian had just lain down when he heard that voice.

Then came the sound of Old Man Fang slamming the door.

Lin Tian didn't care what happened next.

He was only thinking about getting some rest so he could make a good show of himself before the store opened the next morning, and then he could take office the day after tomorrow.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Two hours later, Lin Tian had just fallen into a deep sleep when he suddenly heard angry shouts coming from downstairs.
