A friend gave me two tickets for tomorrow's concert, the Wanda Star Concert, and they're in the 5th row. I like the number 5; my website is called 51, right? A buddy once teased me, asking why I didn't call it 52. I gave him a hard look and said earnestly, "Do you think I'm like you, being so naturally and thoroughly silly?"

I digress. What should I do with two tickets when I'm single? On my way back with the tickets, at a traffic light, I thought of N possibilities.

N1: Make a round of calls to see if any pretty girl would like to go together. If you don't usually put in effort, you can't expect to hug Buddha's feet at the last moment.

N2: Ask a buddy to go together, but I'm afraid of revealing too much bromance, which would harm my good reputation and be bad for finding a girlfriend.

N3: Give them to two guys, letting their bromance shine.

N4: Give them to two girls, wishing them happiness.

N5: Give them to a couple. Nothing to say about that.

N6: Give them to someone who has a lover or spouse, letting them take someone of the opposite sex, breaking up one couple is a good deed.

N7: Sell them on a flea market website, earning tens or hundreds of yuan.

N8: Take the tickets and go to the pedestrian street or university gates, inviting any girl who looks pleasing to the eye. But now old Lü is old, lacking the former charm, so the probability is low.

N9: Take the tickets, arrive an hour early at the entrance, and catch a single girl who wants to watch but has no ticket to go together. If I can't catch one, I'll just sell them for tens of yuan.
