Chapter 1: Which Man Dares to Marry

A hospital in Ascalia, crowded with people.

Bailey, carrying a large pack of medicine, was standing in front of the elevator, anxiously watching the numbers on the LCD screen change slowly, "21,20,19..."

There were more than twenty people standing there waiting for the elevator like her, each secretly straining their strength to rush in as soon as the elevator door opened.

Finally, with a "ding", the door opened slowly.

The elevator was spacious, with only one man sitting in a wheelchair. The man had fine features, dark eyes and long, deep, phoenix-like eyes. What was particularly noticeable was the handsome and upright military uniform he was wearing.

The people waiting for the elevator had their eyes turn green at this moment, and they all rushed forward, scrambling to squeeze into the elevator.

"Ding - ding - ding -" the red light of the elevator flashed, indicating that it was overloaded.

Everyone kept a numb look. Someone was supposed to get off the elevator, but no one wanted it to be themselves.

Bailey hesitated for two or three seconds before getting out of the elevator. But her sacrifice alone did not solve the problem. The elevator was still overloaded and the red light was still flashing.

"Make way, I'll go down too." The soldier in the wheelchair spoke.

The people in the elevator, of course, were glad to hear this and tried their best to step back so that the soldier could get off the elevator quickly.

"why are you in a wheelchair? Do you have a serious illness?" An old lady looked sympathetically at the soldier.

"It's not a serious illness either." The soldier's voice was not loud, but it was clear enough for everyone to hear, "It's just AIDS."

What? AIDS!

Hearing such words, the people in the elevator turned pale and, without any mobilization, followed one after another, all got out of the elevator again.

The once crowded elevator now only has one person and one wheelchair left.

A sly smile flashed across the soldier's face as he raised his hand to press the elevator, ready to leave.

"Wait a moment." Bailey said, stepping into the elevator and pressing the door button.

When the elevator went down to the first floor, Bailey turned around, pushed his wheelchair and asked the soldier, "Where are you going? I'll push you there."

The soldier looked at Bailey in surprise and asked, "Aren't you afraid of being infected?"

Bailey shook his head and smiled nonchalantly: "Everyday contact doesn't spread AIDS."

"Master, why did you come down by yourself?" Seeing Henry out of the elevator in a wheelchair, driver Alvin was extremely anxious. If the old lady found out about it, she would curse herself to death.

"Where are you going? I'll take you back." It was Henry's turn to ask Bailey this time.

"It's okay. The bus is fine." Bailey waved his hand at Henry and turned towards the bus stop. "Take good care of yourself."

In the sun, she had long, flowing hair and a bright smile, which made Henry's heart flutter.

After getting into the car, Henry's mind was still wandering, so much so that Alvin spoke to him twice and he didn't react.

"Master, you have ten blind dates to attend this week." This Alvin is indeed a good temper, always patient and gentle.

"Alvin, it's all your fault for not doing a good job. I have a terminal illness. If you don't publicize such news, not to mention ten matchmaking events, you could arrange a hundred matchmaking events." Henry leaned back lazily into the soft leather seat.

He pulled out a QSG92 pistol from his waist, closed his eyes as if fiddling with a toy, disassembled it into parts, and then put it back together.

Henry looked down at his watch and saw that seventeen seconds had passed.

It was much slower than his usual pace.

It was my car that wasn't driving steadily today. The road conditions were just too bad. Alvin apologized to Henry through the rear-view mirror.

Henry curled the corners of his lips, a smile on his lips, and put the gun back at his waist. No, it wasn't the road that was uneven, but his own state of mind. The girl's smile just now is so beautiful that it keeps lingering in my mind.

Forget it. It's no use thinking about it. I don't even know anyone's surname or given name. In the vast sea of people, we'll never meet again.

"Alvin, I don't want to go to any blind dates. Just turn them all down." As the extended Cadillac came to a slow stop and the door opened, Henry stepped out of the passenger seat and strode towards the villa.

Bailey returned home with her medicine, only to find that his mother was not in the kitchen. She reached the door of the living room and heard her mother talking to Mia, the neighbor, coming from inside.

"It's the time of the year. The notion of a husband or a wife is all feudal superstition. Don't worry. If there's a suitable guy, I'll definitely introduce him to Bailey." Mia, the neighbor, is known for her kindness and has always been close to Bailey's mother. And her man is a Major with a lot of resources, and he is well-known in this area.

"That's true, but Bailey has been engaged four times, and none of them turned out well." At this point, the mother began to weep.

although some people have said that Bailey was not a man of great fortune and fame, he couldn't suppress her. But no one believed it.

But on the path of marriage, Bailey really had a hard time. Four times in succession, the fiances either got injured in a car accident or lost money in business, and the most outrageous one was that the fiances went on a trip to Thailand and when they returned home, they found themselves in love with a transgender person.

What a bunch of nonsense and melodramatic plots!

After all this commotion, Bailey is still single, and the glorious feat of defeating four husbands in a row has been widely spread.

On ordinary days, even in Bailey's presence, the mother did not dare to talk about marriage and could only secretly and anxiously ask someone to help introduce a partner to her daughter.

"Mom, I'm not married. I'm not married to anyone." Bailey hated seeing her mother grovel and beg for her, which was more painful than stabbing her heart with a knife.

Mia, the neighbor, was very shrewd. Seeing the situation, she quickly made up an excuse and left House of Mitchell.

"Mom, you take the medicine." Knowing that what he had just said had been too harsh and had offended his mother, Bailey regretted it a little and began to try to ease the atmosphere.

"I won't take the medicine. I'll die early and be reborn early. I won't have to worry about you for the rest of my life." Bailey's mother threw the medicine her daughter had handed her away, twisted her body inward and sulked.

Bailey understood his mother's good intentions and knew that she was worried about his marriage.

But love is precious, but life is more valuable. Where can one find a man who dares to marry her?
