Livestream Matchmaking: My Intel Infinitely Refreshes

Chapter 45: Chapter 45: First Xiaohongshu Experience

Now that the matter of principle was settled, Zhang Zhe’s mind immediately kicked into gear.

"Teacher Xu, we’ve discussed everything we needed to."

"The matchmaking you promised me..."

"I’ve drunk so much tea it’s tasteless now, and I still haven’t heard a word about you introducing me to someone."

"Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten."

"I’ll go get their profiles for you."

Mrs. Xu actually thought Zhang Zhe was serious about finding a match.

Previously, Boss He had asked for her help. The task was to find local, age-appropriate women who met Zhang Zhe’s criteria—specifically, aiming for the top tier of potential matches.

The old lady lived up to her reputation as a top-tier local Matchmaker, and she had indeed found several suitable candidates for him.

These were the kind of wonderful girls with such excellent qualifications that if Zhang Zhe’s parents saw their profiles, they’d want the two of them to get married on the spot.

Instead of feeling happy to hear Mrs. Xu’s words, Zhang Zhe felt a flicker of panic.

He had no plans to get married this soon.

When he saw Mrs. Xu stand up to get the profiles, it was clear she was serious. Zhang Zhe quickly stopped her.

"Teacher Xu, no rush on the profiles."

"I’d like to learn the ropes from you first."

Mrs. Xu shook her head in confusion. "What do you mean? I don’t understand."

Zhang Zhe was quick on his feet and immediately came up with a suitable excuse.

"I’d like to take the profiles home to go over them with my parents."

"My parents are really worried about me getting married, so if I take the profiles home for us to look at together, it’ll make them feel more involved."

"To be perfectly honest, the main reason I came today was to learn some livestreaming techniques from you."

"How about we start with the livestream matchmaking first?"

"But I have nothing left to teach you." Mrs. Xu’s face flushed. "You have a very clear way of thinking. This old woman can’t compare."

"You’re too modest. I still have a lot of room for improvement."

"Right, Teacher He?"

Zhang Zhe gave Boss He a look.

The two of them had agreed before they came that they were going to learn how the veteran did things.

Boss He reluctantly played along, heaping praise on Mrs. Xu until the old woman was grinning from ear to ear.

Zhang Zhe seized the opportunity to smoothly pivot the purpose of his visit from "matchmaking" to "learning livestreaming techniques."

Mrs. Xu thought for a moment and agreed to Zhang Zhe’s suggestion.

"Fine, I’ll get back to the livestream."

"Let’s learn from each other. If I say anything wrong, please bring it up so we can discuss it."

"Online matchmaking is a product of a new era. An old woman like me can’t possibly keep up with you youngsters. If you see a problem, you absolutely must not hold back."

...

Despite her age, Mrs. Xu was surprisingly adept at starting the livestream on her phone.

Her livestream was back on the air in no time.

Just like last time, Zhang Zhe sat front and center on camera. If the account name wasn’t "Granny Xu Plays Matchmaker," anyone looking at the screen would assume it was his livestream.

"Ladies, we’re back!"

"First, let’s finish what we started." Mrs. Xu said, gesturing to the man beside her. "This is Xiaozhang. He’s here on our livestream looking for a partner."

"I remember we have quite a few local girls from Qing City here."

"If any of you like what you see, or just want to learn more, don’t be shy—request to join the call and have a chat."

"If you two hit it off, I can help arrange for you to meet in person."

[Since when does Teacher Xu take on gigs like this?]

[Damn, this guy is still here? Can a sister please claim him?]

[You can tell Teacher Xu is desperate to marry off this young relative of hers.]

[Wait, the handsome guy is from Qing City too? I’m going to post about this in our local matchmaking groups right now.]

"You don’t have to be from Qing City," Zhang Zhe chimed in. He was worried his requirements were too strict and no one would call in. "The down payment for our home is already taken care of. If we’re a good match, I’m willing to fly anywhere in the country for you."

"Let’s prioritize Qing City for now," Mrs. Xu reminded him from the side. "Otherwise, it’ll be difficult for me to arrange an in-person meeting."

The old lady had a good read on her audience.

She said there were local girls from Qing City, and sure enough, in less than a minute, someone joined the call.

"Teacher Xu, I’m here!"

"I’m from Qing City! I just checked, and your livestream location is only 6.3 kilometers from my house."

Mrs. Xu nodded as she listened. She patted Zhang Zhe on the shoulder from behind and whispered, "This one sounds promising. Give her a chance."

"From her tone of voice, you can tell she has a great personality."

’A great personality?’ Zhang Zhe couldn’t really tell. All he could hear was a lot of emotion in her voice; she was clearly a very high-energy person.

In layman’s terms, she was full of spirit.

After her quick word with Zhang Zhe, Mrs. Xu addressed the caller. "Young lady, are you familiar with this young man’s situation?"

"Should I go over his details for you again?"

"No need, I was watching the stream earlier."

"Great! Sounds like you’re pretty satisfied with his stats, then," Mrs. Xu said with a brilliant smile. "Go ahead and introduce yourself."

"Let’s see if you two are compatible."

"Okay," the woman replied crisply. "I was born in 2000. I’m 5’6" and weigh 121 pounds."

"I come from a single-parent family. My father passed away when I was very young, so I’ve always lived with my mother."

"Children from single-parent families have it tough!" Mrs. Xu suddenly interjected.

Zhang Zhe assumed the old woman was trying to empathize with the caller.

It wasn’t until later, when they were reviewing the stream, that he realized she had been warning him to be wary of that detail.

Children from single-parent homes often come with red flags.

An unstable family environment, especially during the teenage years, can lead children to develop unhealthy views on marriage and family.

The most common example is a child from a divorced and remarried family who doesn’t believe in marriage.

And this caller was a case in point.

"It certainly wasn’t easy, but I’d say I’ve done well for myself."

"I currently own three properties—two are fully paid off, one still has a mortgage—and they’re all in my mother’s name. The deeds are in her name for business reasons, but I was the one who paid for them."

"I run my own business, primarily in the maternal and infant product industry. My current assets are around ten million..."

[You’re so rich, why do you even want to get married?]

[With your kind of money, you could be aiming way higher.]

[Sis, you’re such an inspiration! Building a fortune of ten million on your own after coming from a single-parent home!]

[I’m just being real, this guy isn’t good enough for you.]

When the woman finished, Mrs. Xu patted Zhang Zhe. "Got any questions? Ask away."

"I might have a few too many questions," Zhang Zhe said, looking a little embarrassed.

"No problem, ask anything," the woman on the call replied graciously. "I’m an open book."

"Okay, here goes."

"You said you bought the properties yourself, but you put them in your mother’s name for business convenience. Forgive me for being slow, but how exactly does putting them in her name help your business?"

"My mother is the company’s legal representative. Having property in her name makes it easier to secure loans."

"Oh, I see," Zhang Zhe said, nodding as if in a moment of enlightenment. "So not only is it more convenient for getting loans, but if the company runs into any legal trouble, your mother can go to prison in your place."

’If this woman wasn’t lying, she was a candidate for Daughter of the Century.’

’Making her mom the company’s legal representative just to get loans... that move alone was worthy of being immortalized in the annals of filial piety.’
