However, although F Country was his territory, he still had to keep a low profile.
All beings are equal, and he shouldn’t look down on Mo Qishen just because he’s a widely known good-for-nothing.
That would be wrong.
After all, he’s a person of high quality.
A high-quality person wouldn’t do those low-quality things; hence, even if Ni Yang still liked wearing cheongsams, he didn’t show any dislike.
Because some old ways of thinking and some constraints can’t be shed at once.
Li Dai continued, "Anyway, I’m still looking forward to meeting your boyfriend."
Ni Yang smiled politely, without saying a word.
Thinking it over, Li Dai asked, "By the way, did your boyfriend come to F Country to work or to travel?"
"To work."
Work?
Li Dai felt like laughing again.
What kind of work could Mo Qishen do?
Ni Yang probably thought that just because Li Dai had recently returned from F Country and was from Shanghai, he wouldn’t know about Mo Qishen and wouldn’t be aware that Mo Qishen was a good-for-nothing, which was why she dared to brag so audaciously in front of him.
If Ni Yang knew that he had already thoroughly looked up Mo Qishen’s background, what would her expression be?
It must be very interesting to imagine.
"I hope you don’t mind me asking, what does your boyfriend do? Why is he so busy?" asked Li Dai.
Ni Yang simply said, "I’m not very clear on the specifics of what he does."
Li Dai nodded.
And thought to himself.
Ni Yang must be feeling guilty.
Because speaking too much leads to mistakes. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Another reason is that Mo Qishen doesn’t have a proper job in F Country.
Ni Yang’s mentality, to put it nicely, is modesty.
To put it less kindly, it’s pedantic and inflexible!
It’s already the 80s, almost the 90s, yet Ni Yang’s thoughts are still stuck in feudal times.
If all Chinese clung to old customs, sticking rigidly to antiquated and fixed patterns, then China wouldn’t need to talk about development.
Ni Yang frowned imperceptibly, "What does this have to do with old feudal thinking?"
Li Dai looked at Ni Yang, "Only ancient people would have this ignorant notion of men and women not touching. In F Country, unmarried men and women living under the same roof are commonplace and nothing unusual. Ms. Ni, don’t you think your thinking is too conservative?"
If the notion of not even handing things to each other between men and women were to persist, then human civilization wouldn’t need to progress.
He couldn’t understand why Ni Yang still cared about this.
Did she not know what it means to be a modern woman?
"Just because I’m unwilling to cohabit in your apartment, you think my thoughts are too old-fashioned? That I can’t keep up with the times?"
Li Dai nodded, then said, "Actually, I can’t entirely blame you, after all, you grew up in a feudal country. It’s quite normal to be unable to change feudal thoughts overnight. But I believe that as long as you stay in F Country for a few more days, your thinking and worldview will naturally become different!"
