A woman’s bold attempt to test her date’s generosity took a surprising turn when her plan backfired. In a move that would make even the most seasoned daters raise an eyebrow, she invited 23 family members to join them for dinner. Her intention was to assess her date’s willingness to share, but what ensued was far from what she had anticipated.
The woman, known as Miss Zhang, had hoped to gauge her date’s character by bringing along her extended family. However, her date, Mr. Lui, was caught off guard by the sudden arrival of so many people. Despite his initial willingness to treat Miss Zhang to dinner, he was understandably hesitant to foot the bill for such a large group.
The awkward encounter took place at a restaurant in the eastern Chinese province of Zhejiang. As the meal progressed, it became clear that Mr. Lui was not on board with Miss Zhang’s test of generosity. Instead of graciously accepting the burden of the bill, he made a hasty exit, leaving Miss Zhang to face the consequences alone.
The bill, a staggering 20,000 yuan (or $3,100), was now solely Miss Zhang’s responsibility. In a surprising twist, she decided to take Mr. Lui to court, seeking compensation for the unpaid bill. The court ultimately ruled that Mr. Lui should pay only 1,400 yuan of the bill.
In retrospect, Miss Zhang’s attempt to test Mr. Lui’s generosity was not only unsuccessful but also costly. While her intentions may have been noble, her method of testing Mr. Lui’s character was misguided. This cautionary tale serves as a reminder that honesty and communication are essential in any relationship, rather than elaborate tests of character.”
