Chapter 745: Dugu Qiubai, which female hero can withstand three moves from Mr. Chen?
The two of them served the wine and clinked their glasses lightly. Wang Manni took a small sip and found it tasted good. She couldn't help but take another sip... and looked at Chen An a little embarrassedly.
But when she saw Chen An's actions, Wang Manni was filled with surprise.
Chen An deliberately drank half a cup in one gulp. He had his own plans. Wang Manni worked in a luxury store. Many of her concepts had been invaded by Western culture, and many of her values were not very good. Now that she had become his woman, it was natural for her to change.
"Nini, don't you think this doesn't look very gentlemanly?"
“It’s just a little surprising.”
Chen An smiled, his tone full of disdain, "Nini, our nation's wine culture has a historical basis that can be traced back to the Xia Dynasty, and it has developed for more than 4000 years to this day."
"The wine culture originated in ancient Greece, only 2800 years ago. However, due to wars, the wine culture was soon interrupted. It was not until the establishment of the Roman Empire years ago that it revived..."
"From the perspective of heritage alone, our ancestors' wine culture was more than a thousand years ahead of the West."
"From ancient times to the present, the highest etiquette and respect at the wine table has always been to drink the cup to its full, from the common people to the kings and generals. Moreover, historical records show that many Westerners are just descendants of the group of people who were beaten and fled by our ancestors. What qualifications do they have to equate their drinking culture with that of the nobility?"
Wang Manni has been an average student since she was young. Although she is not a bad student, she is still very envious of the top students. When she sees her man talking eloquently and with solid arguments, she feels that he is particularly handsome.
When I thought about the story Liang Zhengxian told me on the boat, I suddenly felt it was bullshit. What about burying the dead for three years, taking out the bones, washing them, and putting the whole family together? Isn't this the culture of the poor?
Our ancestors already had cemeteries and ancestral tombs. Even in backward villages, there are ancestral halls. People have graves and places to bury their bones, and places to worship their spirit tablets. Look at those vulgar people in Europe, where a family doesn’t even have a burial place. All their bones are put in a box. What if a dog takes them away? Wouldn’t that be a joke?
Chopper said something terrible, your family's coffin was stolen. Let's see if it was your father's thigh that was lost, or your grandfather's arm that was stolen. It's funny to think about it.
"Why are you grinning like an idiot?" Chen An asked speechlessly.
"Nothing, I just remembered something interesting. Brother, tell me about the people who were beaten by our ancestors and fled in fear."
Although I don’t know what Wang Manni was thinking about just now, the best way to build confidence is to think back to the past.
"This has to start with Emperor Wu of Han..."
In his previous life, Chen An loved history very much. When he talked about the stories in history books, he was naturally very knowledgeable. And unlike the old-fashioned history books, after acquiring master-level writing skills, his storytelling level improved exponentially.
A few dozen short words in history books can become a story of several minutes after his polishing.
After sleeping for a few hours, Wang Manni regained her spirits.
Lying on Chen An's lap in the living room, listening to him telling wonderful stories, feeding her some fruits from time to time to replenish her water, she particularly enjoyed this feeling and couldn't help but indulge in it. This might be the life she had longed for before. The only flaw was that the two of them were not in a husband-and-wife relationship...
After telling the story of Fenglangjuxu, it was getting late and Wang Manni was a little sleepy. Chen An immediately stopped telling the story, "Manni, two hours after dinner is a good time to do some exercise. Let's continue tonight's program and explore..."
"Ah, brother, please don't, spare my life..."
Chen An picked up Wang Manni and said, "Why spare your life? If I don't want your life, I might as well give you two."
Wang Manni once again deeply understood what it meant to be in pain and happy at the same time...
The next morning, Chen An and his friend were having breakfast in the restaurant. Wang Manni hesitated for a moment, but still expressed her thoughts.
"Brother, I want to discuss something with you."
"what happened?"
"You gave me two contracts yesterday. Can I choose the first one?"
Wang Manni looked at Chen An cautiously. To her surprise, Chen An's reaction was not surprising.
"Nini, tell me your plan."
"Brother, although we are in a relationship now, I still want to try and see if I have the ability. So I want to spend a year to successfully transform myself into a qualified store manager. Only then will I be eligible for the second contract."
The reason why Wang Manni made this choice was, on the one hand, due to her pitiful self-esteem, but more importantly, she wanted to try her best. Even though she knew in her heart that she might not be able to be the one to walk down the aisle with him, she would not be willing to give up if she didn't try.
She ended up in complete defeat in yesterday's physical contest. The things she was proud of did not give her enough confidence, so she could only settle for the second best and choose to work hard in her career, make achievements, and increase her weight in Chen An's eyes.
And this kind of success must be based on one's own abilities, and cannot be forced because of the relationship between the two of them.
"Nini, I agree with your general idea, but there are some aspects that I need to correct."
“What needs to be corrected?”
"After one year, you have accomplished what you have accomplished. You have not only become a qualified store manager, but also the owner of this store."
Wang Manni was stunned, "Brother, what are you doing?"
"Since you have become my woman and want to work hard to prove yourself, I will give you enough time.
"But Manny, you have to understand that life is only a few decades long, and there is not much time to waste. As long as you prove that you are a qualified store manager, then your career will move to the next level."
"From an executor to a decision maker, the butt determines the head. Only when you sit in that position, you will be able to put yourself in the shoes of others, think from that perspective, and work hard. This is your choice, and I respect your choice."
"As a man, I will be your strongest support and most stable safe haven. No matter if you fall or get frustrated on your way forward, there will always be an arm around you to be your last resort."
These words made Wang Manni's eyes red. He understood her thoughts. He did not stop her in a domineering way and let her be a canary with peace of mind. Instead, he chose to understand, respect, support and trust her, allowing her to have no worries and bravely realize her wishes.
This emotion, to some extent, is more like a selfless fatherly love, which makes Wang Manni bathe in warmth.
Seeing Wang Manni throwing herself into his arms, hugging him tightly, venting her emotions.
Chen An hugged her with his backhand, gently supporting her back, and watched the favorability index in his mind increase by two points, jumping to 98.
I couldn't help but feel a little weird. It seemed that my skills in fooling women were getting better and better. I didn't know which female warrior could withstand Chen's three-pronged attack...
