"You'll have to get married sooner or later, right?" Shi Xiaobao said unhurriedly.
Fang Tongtong hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and retorted in a soft voice, "That doesn't necessarily mean it has to be with you..."
There are plenty of men with two legs; she hasn't had enough fun yet. It's not too late to find a boyfriend when she's older.
Shi Xiaobao narrowed his eyes, and the cold glint he emitted silenced Fang Tongtong, who lowered her head even further.
"Since you're determined to get married, you have to find a man. Marriage is actually a business partnership, just with a longer duration. A good partner can work together for a lifetime, while those who don't mesh can only part ways. Am I right?"
Fang Tongtong nodded again; it did indeed make a lot of sense.
Shi Xiaobao raised the corners of his lips slightly and said, "Since it's a business collaboration, it's better to stick with someone you know well than someone you don't know. You'd be better off finding someone like me, someone you know well, rather than a complete stranger. At least that eliminates the potential threat of a perverted emotional abuser."
"I'm really good at this," Fang Tongtong retorted.
She's a kung fu master; she could easily take on seven or eight strong men with her fists.
"If you encounter a highly intelligent psychopath, your skills will be useless against him. There are countless cases of this kind of crime. Those victims all think they are very powerful. You have read The Silence of the Lamb, right? If you encounter a highly intelligent psychopath like Dr. [Name], do you think you can escape?" Shi Xiaobao asked rhetorically.
Fang Tongtong shuddered, as if she couldn't escape, but—
"I'm not that unlucky to run into a pervert."
Fang Tongtong retorted irritably. Despite having been exposed to so much crime, she still firmly believed that there were more good people than bad people in the world.
"Then you can't be sure you won't run into it, right?"
Fang Tongtong...
I have nothing to say.
Shi Xiaobao's words planted a thorn in her heart: what if she really encountered a perverted man?
"Even if they're not a pervert, they might have other problems, like being a miser, or having a bunch of awful relatives, even worse than your grandparents. Do you think you could handle that?"
Fang Tongtong's heart sank. Imagining her future mother-in-law being like her grandmother, she suddenly didn't want to get married anymore.
Shi Xiaobao's eyes were cunning. He knew Fang Tongtong better than she knew herself. He was like the Big Bad Wolf who was about to devour Little Red Riding Hood, coaxing her little by little into the trap.
"But I'm not a pervert, nor am I a miser, and I don't have any awful relatives. After we get married, I can give you absolute freedom. You can do whatever you want, your allowance will increase fivefold, and you can eat as much grilled fish as you want..."
Shi Xiaobao talked on and on, and every word he said touched Fang Tongtong's heart, especially the idea of five times the allowance. Now it was 10,000 yuan, and five times that would be 50,000 yuan. She could then sponsor more impoverished students and eat more delicious food.
Fang Tongtong couldn't help but swallow, and several times she almost agreed, but she held back.
Marriage is a lifelong commitment, and she can't easily give in to it.
Moreover, she was still a little awkward. She was clearly her aunt, so how did she become her wife now?
"You used to call me auntie." Fang Tongtong felt a little taken advantage of.
It's not a good deal to turn an elder into a peer.
“You can still call her Aunt after we get married. Yang Guo always called his wife Aunt, so I have no problem with it.” Shi Xiaobao was very easy to talk to.
Once you're married, you can call each other whatever you want, since it's in bed and nobody can hear you.
