  When the young man heard Shen Zhilie’s territorial and possessive words, he chuckled in reply and apologized. “I’m sorry, sir. It’s easy to lose our heads when it comes to beautiful things.”


  Ye Qianqian’s command of English wasn’t very good. When she heard the exchange, she only understood half of it.

  When she heard the phrase “beautiful things,” she was so happy she could practically feel her heart blooming.

  Her smile deepened. She looked at Shen Zhilie with a hint of triumph in her eyes as she said, “Look at what good taste the foreigners have. He could tell that I’m a peerless beauty just with one look!”


  Shen Zhilie turned to her in exasperation and bluntly declared, “It’s time to cut it out! This guy here is only saying that to earn your money again in five years! Beauty? He’s just bluffing! It’s not even true!”


  “Hey, just because you’re blind doesn’t mean that others can’t speak the truth! You’re being so unreasonable!”


  “What truth? He’s simply ignoring his conscience and lying to you! Did you really think he was so tired of the Caucasian aesthetics that he’d find the first Chinese girl he saw pretty? Wake up! It’s a lie!”


  “F*ck you, Shen Zhilie. Do you have a death wish?”


  Ye Qianqian’s voice wasn’t soft. People around began to look over.

  Shen Zhilie looked around him and smiled embarrassedly at everyone. He quickly tugged Ye Qianqian’s arm as he admonished, “We’re in public! Can’t you just behave in a more cultured manner? Stop screaming obscenities over every small matter. It’ll be so embarrassing if we were to meet other Chinese people.”


  Ye Qianqian pulled his arm over and gave him a hard pinch.

  Shen Zhilie’s reaction was to yelp out in pain, but he didn’t dare do it too loudly. He had no choice but to hold it in until his face turned red.

  The young hunk standing beside thing smiled slightly. He couldn’t help it.

  Ye Qianqian didn’t notice that. She glared at Shen Zhilie. “How dare you talk about being embarrassed? If we were to meet other Chinese people and they imitated the way you speak to your girlfriend, it would result in familial discord! That would make a huge sinner out of you! What a spiteful tongue you have!”


  Shen Zhilie’s expression was pitiful as he looked at Ye Qianqian. He asked, “Could you please release your fingers first? If others were to imitate your violent ways, that would result in an outbreak of domestic violence! Wouldn’t that be so much worse?”


  “Does it hurt?”


  Shen Zhilie nodded his head in grievance. “Yeah!”


  “You deserve it!”


  Ye Qianqian gave him a last pinch before finally pushing him away.

  Shen Zhilie tried to rub the stinging pain away from his hand as he said, “You’re so violent! This is domestic abuse!”


  “You deserve it! If you’re worried about it, don’t marry me. If I become your wife, I’ll pinch you every single day until your whole body is swollen! It’ll be excruciating!”


  Shen Zhilie suddenly didn’t feel the pain any longer. He reached across the young hunk and stepped forward, wrapping his arm around Ye Qianqian’s waist.

  Suddenly seized by Shen Zhilie, Ye Qianqian looked around and lowered her voice to warn him, “Let go! What are you doing?”


  “I’ll let you pinch me. In the future, I’ll let you pinch me to your heart’s content.”


  A grin broke out on Shen Zhilie’s face, revealing his perfect set of teeth. He was smiling himself silly.

  Ye Qianqian felt her face heating up. Her whole body tensed.

  Is this guy being serious?

  Does he really want to marry me?

  She recalled the fact that he had gone to her hometown, brought her overseas for a vacation, and had even mentioned her to his grandmother.

  Putting the pieces together, Ye Qianqian felt her heart soar.

  Her face immediately resumed an expression of faux disdain. She nudged him away and said, “I won’t pinch you anymore! Just get lost! Go away!”


  “How can you do that? That’s the conduct of a hooligan!”


  “So what if it is? I can act however I please! Get lost!” Ye Qianqian pushed him away, but her face was getting redder with every passing moment.

  The exchange between the couple made the waiter blush a little. He cleared his throat gently and asked, “Excuse, if there’s no other problem, could the both of you please sign your names?”
