Highlights
Qi Luo is thrown out by his girlfriend, Qiluo, after he takes out a large loan for her leukemia treatment. She scoffs at his financial state and demands a breakup. Immediately after this humiliation, a 'Blind Date Makes You Stronger System' activates, promising rewards for spending 30 minutes on blind dates.
Qi Luo's first blind date is with a woman who orders excessively and criticizes his low income. Despite her rude behavior, Qi Luo endures for the 30-minute reward, which turns out to be 880,000 yen. He then tricks her into paying the hefty bill after debating over sweet vs. savory tofu brain preferences.
Qi Luo goes on another blind date with Ms. Wang, who questions his 'new energy car' (a donkey) and spending habits. After a 60-minute blind date, he is rewarded with 330,000 yuan and a Tesla Model S. He uses the Tesla to impress his ex-girlfriend Jiang Lin's sister, Jiang Wan, and make Jiang Lin extremely jealous.
Qi Luo's friend and ex-classmate, Zhang Kai, tries to impress everyone by claiming ownership of a restaurant. Qi Luo then reveals he owns the entire Jubilee Court. He humiliates Zhang Kai and other classmates who doubted his wealth, offering Jiang Wan the Tesla and revealing he owns Huayang Technology.
Qi Luo, now the largest shareholder of Huayang Group, arranges a blind date with Ms. Su, a career-focused woman. His former uncle-in-law and Zhang Kai try to humiliate him, but Qi Luo reveals his true position, firing them both and gaining Ms. Su's admiration.
Qi Luo acquires Platinum Palace, an entertainment club. He then encounters Chen Hong and his 'godfather' Luo, who attempt to intimidate him. Qi Luo reveals he is Luo's 'brother' (owner of the Platinum Palace) and humiliates Chen Hong, who is also Ms. Jiang Wan's aggressive suitor. Qi Luo also warns Ms. Lui (Lei Yin) about financial fraud.
At a dating market, Qi Luo encounters Ms. Huang Juan, who has outrageous demands (high salary, large house, company, deceased parents for a bachelor after marriage). Qi Luo, unfazed, engages her in conversation, eventually leading to a disagreement about a TV show character's morality. He receives a new apartment for enduring the date.
Qi Luo returns home, where his mother sets him up with Ms. Ji, a state-owned enterprise employee. They discuss career, finances, and hobbies. However, their blind date ends when Qi Luo expresses his dislike for the national soccer team, while Ms. Ji strongly defends it, leading to a clash of values.
Jiang Lin, now witnessing Qi Luo's success and living in his acquired houses, tries to reconcile with him. Qi Luo agrees to a 'blind date' as a 'ceremony' to get back together. He uses this as an opportunity to reveal her true materialistic demands, stating he won't be fooled again, and ultimately rejects her.
