The Random Passerby I Married Is The Richest Man!

Chapter 9 Part 1: Criteria for choosing a spouse

 

Bai Zhen Zhen was already under heavy pressure, but Huo Xiang was very cooperative.

“Uncle Bai, if I had a girlfriend, how could she not have come visit me after so many days?” Huo Xiang said.

Father Bai nodded and laughed cheerfully, seemingly very happy: “I guess you don’t.”

Bai Zhen Zhen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. The other person didn’t have a girlfriend, was it good for you to laugh so happily?!

“So, what kind of girl do you like ah? What do you think of our family’s Zhen Zhen?” Father Bai asked the question Bai Zhen Zhen least wanted to hear.

—Bai Zhen Zhen: “I want to complain.”

—System: “Host, please say.”

—Bai Zhen Zhen: “Doesn’t Father Bai love his daughter the most? One minute ago, didn’t he solemnly made a vow of letting her daughter find a man who will treat her well?! Why does he now suddenly want to marry his daughter to a stranger he knows for not even three days?!”

—System: “Maybe… this is fate. Fate is such a wonderful thing.”

—Bai Zhen Zhen: “……”

In order to not let Huo Xiang talk nonsense, Bai Zhen Zhen gave him an “I’m not easy to mess with” glare.

Huo Xiang deliberately raised his eyebrows, and then said to Father Bai: “I ah, I like girls with a round face, big eyes, and a small mouth, of petite stature.”

“Aiyo, round face, small mouth… petite…” Father Bai was a bit surprised, but still pretended to smile naturally. “You have good sight, this kind of girl is very cute, would match very well with you.”

Bai Zhen Zhen also smiled at Huo Xiang, her smile was pleased and delighted.

On the one hand, it was because the points Huo Xiang described, apart from “big eyes”, the others perfectly avoided her current “default settings.”

On the other hand, it was because, in the real world, she was 1.60 m high, with a round face and a small cherry mouth. She could not help but say that this passerby had really good taste!

“It looks like our family’s Zhen Zhen is not your type ah…” there was a bit of disappointment in Father Bai’s words.

“Zhen Zhen is indeed a beautiful girl, if I were to run into such a pretty girl on ordinary days, I wouldn’t dare step forward and talk to her.” Huo Xiang started his flattering mode.

“Of course….” Hearing his daughter being praised, Father Bai’s expression looked proud, but he still was a little worried. “Actually, it’s also no good that she is so pretty, everyone thinks our family’s Zhen Zhen already has a boyfriend, or feel that her requirements must be very high, so they don’t dare pursue her…”

“Qi~” Yang Suping let out a disdainful laugh.

Father Bai didn’t reproach her, which made Bai Zhen Zhen really puzzled. His second wife mocked his own daughter the whole day, yet he just watched like this? What about the character that loved his daughter?!

This book’s characters had really weird settings, so scary.

“You said so much, yet I still don’t know which type of boy Zhen Zhen likes ah?” Huo Xiang unexpectedly asked.

Father Bai was also awakened by Huo Xiang’s words, agreeing hurriedly: “Yes ah, Zhen Zhen, what kind of boyfriend are you looking for ah?”

Bai Zhen Zhen smiled awkwardly: “Dad, let’s talk about something else, ok?”

“Ai, every time we mention this topic you’re always mumbling!” Father Bai was a bit upset. “If you don’t marry one day, my heart will not be at peace! This disease ah, it’s difficult to get better…”

“Aiya, in the end, fate will come naturally!” In order to get through this hurdle successfully, Bai Zhen Zhen had no choice but to act spoiled.

Father Bai let out a sigh, not saying anything.

—System: “Host, please pay attention to your character settings.”

—Bai Zhen Zhen: “?”

—System: “Kind and honest behavior, in particular, extremely filial to your father.”

—Bai Zhen Zhen: “So what?  To be filial, do I have to answer their questions yes or yes?”

—System: “Host, you misunderstood. The system is reminding you to fulfill your father’s wish as soon as possible and come back with a boyfriend.”

—Bai Zhen Zhen: “……”

hehehe I made an apple tart bc well, I had some apples sitting there about to die from boredom and it came out quite nicely ^^ tho the book was like ‘bake it at regular temperature’ and I was like wth is ‘regular temperature?!! (fyi 200ºC is too high for a regular baking temp. 😂 maybe that’s a ‘regular temp.’ for pizzas only? idk xd)… I don’t like these imprecise instructions ah, like when my mom says ‘add a bit of this’, but how much is a bit?!! >.< so I always add too much or too little… but even worse is that I do the same… ‘oh, that? just keep adding flour till you get the right texture, you’ll feel it….’ smh

On another note, from now on it will be possible to have sponsored chapters of Random Passerby (chapters as in parts), for 7$/part and with the possibility of 1 sponsored chap every 2 weeks. For some time now I’ve been intending to increase a bit the number of releases, but I want first to find a good working pace bc I’m quite irregular, might be very productive for a few days but then don’t touch the novel for weeks, so please be a bit patient till I get it figured out^^

  1. It’s great, really; but it would be so much better if she wasn’t so passive with most things. I guess it’s not time yet 💁🏾‍♀️

    1. she probably just wants to stay away from thing as much as possible, since getting involved would only lead to attracting trouble… but that’s why our ML exists!! actively trying to make her take the bait lol

    2. +1000 I’m getting sick of her running from everything. This author really made such an inconsistent FL. She’s selfish and manipulative and just to allow drama to continue in the story she always says she too lazy to deal with it. I wanted to like this novel cause the premise is really different but so many cliche plotlines that I can’t stand.

  2. The “regular” temperature depends on the oven. A moderate oven has a range of 350-375 °F (180-190 °C), and a hot oven has the temperature set to 400-450 °F (200-230 °C). A fast oven has a range of 450-500 °F (230-260 °C) for the typical temperature. baking at normally in cake recipes they say to use 350°F or 180°C. (I like baking and have made multiple cakes/muffins, I am also lazy so I don’t do it often.)
