Chapter 68 Attempting to Date
The essence of marriage is actually about mutual compromise and accommodation.
This is the most ideal state, in other words, a mutual endeavor.
But in marriage, it’s often a one-sided effort, which over time, no matter how deep the love, can become exhausting and burdensome.
Thus, from the initial contact with the two women, Shen Siyuan was more inclined towards Jiang Taoshi.
He was aiming for marriage, not just a passionate romantic affair.
Marriage is not about poetry and distant lands, but about the daily grind of household chores and responsibilities.
Two women, two styles, just from initial contact.
Ruan Hongzhuang has a strong-willed personality and is very opinionated, clearly not someone easy to compromise with in life. To live with such a person, one can only compromise and accommodate, or there will definitely be conflicts.
But over time, he did not believe he could tolerate it, and why should he start by making concessions for himself?
He and Ruan Hongzhuang had only met for the first time, and it wasn’t to the stage of a life-or-death love.
Jiang Taoshi’s personality is the exact opposite of Ruan Hongzhuang; she is gentle and kind. Having been well protected since childhood, she grew up in love and being loved, with everything arranged for her, hence she doesn’t have many strong opinions.
