温柔美国人的情歌

第8章 婚前试爱

Life is like being violated—if you can't resist, then just enjoy it.

Actually, Zhang Yifei didn't dislike Shao Ningdie; on the contrary, he had some feelings for her. What bothered him was her status—being under the pressure of a strong woman made it hard for him to breathe.

Dust returns to dust, and soil to soil; whatever happens, happens.

Zhang Yifei could vaguely see his future life: no power, no status, no freedom—a completely insignificant person.

"Fate's beginning and end, its intensity or faintness, are not something we can control. What we can do is cherish those fleeting moments when fate brings us together. Love is like a train, and lovers are like the scenery along the way. When you admire the passing views, you always think that more beautiful sights are yet to come. Maybe by the time you reach the end, you'll realize you were wrong; the initial scenery was the most beautiful. And I believe that I am that initial, most beautiful scenery."

Shao Ningdie's voice was soft and gentle, but to Zhang Yifei, it felt like a bitter mix of emotions. By all rights, marrying a woman as beautiful and capable as Shao Ningdie should be a blessing earned from a past life.

Zhang Yifei wanted to find a beautiful wife, but he only desired one who was both beautiful and simple. He hoped that his wife would occasionally whisper sweet praises into his ear: "Honey, you're amazing. Honey, you're incredible."

But would a strong woman's wife say such things? Clearly not.

Zhang Yifei just wanted a peaceful life, but heaven played a huge joke on him.

The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere became awkward for a moment.

Just then, Shao's mother's voice broke the silence: "Xiao Zhang, Xiao Die, it's time to eat."

"Let's eat. My mom's cooking is really good," Shao Ningdie said, breaking the awkward atmosphere. She was a generous and well-mannered woman, so it was natural for her to take on the role of the 'icebreaker.'

Zhang Yifei felt more exhausted now than when he was running around as an assassin.

Could it be that he was only suited to be an assassin? A terrifying thought suddenly crossed Zhang Yifei's mind.

As soon as this thought emerged, Zhang Yifei quickly squashed it.

He was still young, with a bright future ahead of him—how could he waste it on a dead-end profession like being an assassin?

"Let's eat!" Zhang Yifei nodded faintly, extinguishing his cigarette.

The meal was served, and everyone sat down!

When something joyous happens, it lifts the spirit, especially when it concerns the marriage of a son or daughter—a big, happy occasion. Shao Tianzhi and Shao's mother were in high spirits, smiling broadly. Now, they would probably find anyone they met pleasant.

Even the old dean was energized.

Zhang Yifei now truly wanted to invite the old dean to a karaoke session. Initially, Zhang Yifei thought it was the great mercy of the Goddess of Mercy, but now he realized it wasn't divine intervention—he had been set up by the old dean.

Since, in Shao Tianzhi's eyes, they were soon to be a family, there were no formalities, and everyone sat as they pleased. Of course, Zhang Yifei and Shao Ningdie were the main characters today, so naturally, they sat together.
