Best friends transmigrate into a book! They marry a high-ranking official! If you run, I run too!

With the Chinese New Year approaching, Gu Shuhe still didn't have a boyfriend, so Shi Bin came over to sound him out. If Gu Shuhe was willing, he would ask his mother to ask Wu Guifang to help him propose to the Gu family again during the New Year.

What didn't work last year, Gu Shuhe is a year older this year, so maybe it will work.

After all, his conditions are indeed quite good.

He wasn't one of those men in the countryside who earned work points.

He has a legitimate job.

The first condition for Gu Shuhe to marry him is that he will not suffer hardship.

They will not face the situation of not having enough to eat.

Although Gu Shuhe's family is well-off, her family is based in the village, not in the county town, so it's not easy for her to find a decent job in the county town.

Shi Bin had already prepared all the self-comforting thoughts.

But when Shi Bin entered and saw Gu Shuhe's flushed face, and then thought of Shen Tingci, who had just left the supply and marketing cooperative, tall and handsome, and who seemed to work at the county committee...

Shi Bin's smile became somewhat stiff.

He didn't think Gu Shuhe would have anything going on with the other party.

Those people definitely want to find someone who is their equal in social standing.

After all, that man wasn't as unhandsome as he was.

If someone were to choose someone, they would definitely pick someone as beautiful as an angel.

However, the man was so handsome that it was understandable that Gu Shuhe, a young girl, would be somewhat attracted to him.

That's just how people are. Men like pretty girls, so handsome men are definitely popular among girls too.

But when it comes to living a stable life, you still need to find someone reliable.

Shi Bin felt he should still advise Gu Shuhe not to let a momentary infatuation cause her to miss out on the people she could truly rely on.

When Shi Bin entered the supply and marketing cooperative, Gu Shuhe, as an employee of the cooperative, naturally noticed him very quickly.

Having met several times already, Gu Shuhe naturally recognized Shi Bin.

Gu Shuhe put the things Shen Tingci gave her into the drawer behind her, and the blush on her face quickly faded. Gu Shuhe turned around and said in a friendly manner, "You're here to buy things again?"

Gu Shuhe felt that they were now somewhat familiar with each other, so she spoke in a familiar tone.

Gu Shuhe spoke, and Shi Bin finally came to his senses. "Ah, I...I, I didn't come here to buy anything today," Shi Bin said, rubbing his hands together.

He wasn't really there to buy anything; the insoles he bought last time were practically useless, so he figured he shouldn't make any more excuses.

Gu Shuhe looked puzzled, and Shi Bin rubbed his hands together to answer, "It's almost Chinese New Year, so I thought I'd come and ask when you're on holiday?"

"Same as in previous years!"

"Then let's go back together?"

Gu Shuhe shook her head. "I took leave this year and rested early."

"Oh, that's how it is!"

“You girls deserve to rest a few more days. You work hard all year round.”

"No, I have something to do," Gu Shuhe said, sensing that his words didn't sound like a nice thing.

"Do you need my help?"

"If you need my help, just tell me. We're...we're friends."

Gu Shuhe shook her head, thinking to herself: What help can you be at getting married?

Gu Shuhe shook her head, and Shi Bin immediately realized something.

He looked at Gu Shuhe and finally said what he had been holding back, "It's almost the end of the year, so I guess there will be a lot of people going on blind dates."

“My mom has recommended several more companies to me.”

He waved his hand and said, "I don't want to meet anyone. I care more about first impressions. I think the most important thing for two people to be compatible in life is their temperament. Everything else... is just fluff."

"When it comes to living a practical life, you can't just pick the pretty ones that aren't meant for a real life."

"If you only focus on conditions and the two families are not well-matched, you won't be able to live together. It's not good if you always have conflicts after marriage."

"When it comes to settling down, you still need to find a reliable person."

Gu Shuhe completely agreed with his words.

As he spoke, Gu Shuhe nodded.

Shi Bin became happier and happier as he talked. He knew he hadn't misjudged her. She was a good girl, not vain, not picky, and had a good temper.

Shi Bin was so happy that he said, "When are you going home for the New Year? If I go to your place, I'll stop by your house to visit you!"

He felt that since Gu Shuhe listened to his advice, it meant he still had a chance.

So he boldly spoke up.

But Gu Shuhe shook her head, "I'm getting married on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month, so you probably won't see me if you go."

Shi Bin “…”

One second Shi Bin's heart was filled with pink bubbles, the next second ice shards appeared in his heart, and the ice shards spread rapidly until his whole body fell into an ice cellar.

His smile vanished. "Marry...?"

"...This...so fast?"

He couldn't believe it. "You didn't mention this when I came last time!"

Gu Shuhe frowned slightly as she looked at the bewildered person in front of her.

Even if her relationship with Shen Tingci hadn't been finalized by the last time she came, what kind of relationship did she have with him?

Why do we have to say this the moment we meet?

Perhaps seeing Gu Shuhe's puzzled expression, which looked almost mocking, Shi Bin regained his composure and began to ask, "Where are you from?"

Is it far from your home?

Gu Shuhe pointed to the doorway and said, "You should have seen it when you came in."

"Ok?"

"The one that just left from here."

Shi Bin was completely dumbfounded.

"...You mean, the one who just left from here is your fiancé?"

Gu Shuhe nodded, "Yes, my family ordered it for me."

Shi Bin opened his mouth again and again, but no sound came out no matter how many times he tried.

Gu Shuhe ignored him and continued wiping the table with a rag.

Then a colleague who was taking inventory in the warehouse came out, rubbing his back, and called out, "Shuhe, quick, get me a water cup."

Gu Shuhe quickly went to deliver the water cup.

Gu Shuhe brought over a water glass; Shi Bin hadn't left yet.

Shi Bin was still not giving up, "Does he work at the county committee?"

Gu Shuhe nodded.

"Was it someone who introduced you?"

Gu Shuhe nodded, then looked at him with a puzzled expression, not understanding why he asked this.

Shi Bin stared at Gu Shuhe. Gu Shuhe was beautiful, but did being beautiful mean she deserved a man like that?

He couldn't tell from Gu Shuhe's appearance that she was faking it; she genuinely looked very honest and didn't seem like the type to seduce people, it was just...

After finishing her water, the colleague frowned and asked Gu Shuhe, "Shuhe, what is he buying?"

Gu Shuhe honestly told him, "He doesn't buy anything!"

"Not buying anything?" My colleague stood up and put down his cup.

No matter how unwilling Shi Bin was, the facts told him that he had no chance. Gu Shuhe was already engaged and was about to get married.

Moreover, his marriage partner is far superior to him.

"...I...I'm leaving now!"

He fled in panic under the scrutinizing gaze of Gu Shuhe's colleagues.

As soon as he left, his colleague's voice came after him, "In the future, don't talk to people like that. If they don't want to buy anything, just let them go. Otherwise, who knows what kind of shady ideas they might have!"

Gu Shuhe was truly honest; at this moment, she even explained to her colleague, "He's someone I know; he's a blind date my family introduced me to before."
