Description
WARNING: The blurb is a massive spoiler Zhang Dai and Chen Shuangshuang’s parents once joked that if they were still single by the age of thirty, they should just settle for each other! Both Zhang Dai and Chen Shuangshuang, who had been bickering since childhood, found this idea absolutely impossible. But fate had other plans. One day, after a heartbreaking breakup, Chen Shuangshuang was in tears. Zhang Dai, ever the loyal friend, decided to help her drown her sorrows in alcohol. What happened next was completely unexpected. The morning after, Chen Shuangshuang, still reeling from the shock, kicked Zhang Dai and demanded he buy the morning-after pill. She thought everything would be erased like chalk dust, but she accidentally took the wrong medicine and unfortunately got pregnant, and her family found out. After some deliberation, their families quickly arranged for them to get a marriage certificate and immediately held the wedding. Skit 1: Chen Shuangshuang, holding her pregnant belly: “Mom, he bullied me again!” Zhang Dai, just scolded: “You’re already a mother, how can you still be so childish?” Chen Shuangshuang, with a disdainful look: “You’re already a father, can’t you be more mature?” Skit 2: Chen Shuangshuang: “Zhang Dai, do you have abs? Can I pinch them?” Zhang Dai: “Why can’t you keep your hands to yourself?” After marriage, they both disliked each other and bickered constantly, making their married life quite lively!

My Thoughts on Flash marriage at 30 [Short Story]
"Flash marriage at 30 [Short Story]" is a quick and easy read that I found myself enjoying, despite some minor frustrations. This short story definitely delivers on its promise of a lighthearted and comedic romance, perfect for when you're looking for something sweet to fill a spare moment.
First Impressions
Going in, I knew this was a short story, so I tempered my expectations for deep plotlines and intricate character development. What I was hoping for was a charming and funny story, and for the most part, that's exactly what I got. The premise of childhood friends entering into a flash marriage, with one secretly pining for the other, had me intrigued.
What Works Well
The comedic interactions between the main characters are undoubtedly the highlight. Their bickering is playful, even if a bit juvenile at times, and provides plenty of laugh-out-loud moments. I appreciated the "childhood frenemies to lovers" trope and how the story explored the dynamic of a couple who have known each other for practically their whole lives. The story also doesn't overstay its welcome. It's a complete, concise tale that leaves you with a warm, fuzzy feeling.
Areas of Concern
While I enjoyed the overall story, I do have a few minor gripes. I felt it was difficult to see the female lead's affection for the male lead until the very end. The male lead's feelings were clear, but the female lead's seemed more ambiguous, which made the relationship feel a bit unbalanced at times. I would have loved to see more hints of her true feelings throughout the story, perhaps through diary entries that hinted at her secret crush instead of only focusing on her "dislike". I also felt that some of the characters' actions felt petty at times.
