I got up a bit earlier, so making breakfast seems pretty normal, doesn’t it? Besides, when I’m alone, I still need to make breakfast for myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She spoke calmly, and her tone did not suggest she was merely putting on an act.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, she had no reason to feign virtues like kindness and morality in front of Yang Fei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything was genuine, done freely according to her wishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eat up, it’s not good when it’s cold,\" Qin Yanyang remarked and, without waiting for Yang Fei, started eating first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of this seemed somewhat dreamlike and unreal to Yang Fei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had just returned to the country and found himself a wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention that she was extremely attractive and well-built, her character was also incredibly open and easygoing, adept both in social settings and domestic life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was indeed the perfect picture of a wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only regret was that they didn’t know each other well enough yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Qin Yanyang was friendly and polite towards him, it was precisely this politeness that made him feel an impassable gulf between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Fei could be sure that if he simply continued to coexist harmoniously with her, life would be very beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he absolutely should not entertain thoughts of taking it any further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under her seemingly approachable and easygoing appearance, there lay a kind of invisible aloofness that kept people at a distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm, not bad cooking skills; it seems I’ve struck gold. The wife I found through a blind date and a quick marriage is not only beautiful and wealthy but also virtuous and gentle; I must have accumulated a lot of good karma in my past life,\" Yang Fei complimented after tasting a few bites of the breakfast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yanyang’s lips curved into a crescent, \"As long as you don’t mind it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How could I?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Fei ate heartily, finishing the meal on his plate swiftly along with a glass of milk, and then said with satisfaction, \"I really want a life like this to last forever.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yanyang looked up at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Fei also stared at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their gazes met and neither of them averted their eyes, just looking at each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long while, it was Yang Fei who turned away first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Qin Yanyang’s gaze was a simple, straightforward stare. She looked at Yang Fei and said, \"Just like I said yesterday, I don’t dislike you, which is why I married you. Although there were reasons to use you as a shield, it’s not merely for utilitarian purposes. If possible, let’s try to get along slowly and if suitable, it could be for a lifetime.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was her genuine inner thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For someone like her, entertaining the idea of a normal relationship like ordinary girls was impractical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wasn’t an advocate for remaining unmarried; as a regular woman, she too had fantasized about her other half in life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she was going to get married eventually, then she would carefully choose her partner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Serious?\" Yang Fei asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yanyang nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Fei fished a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and was about to light one when he remembered to ask, \"Do you mind if I smoke?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yanyang nodded: \"It’s fine. Although I don’t smoke.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Fei thought for a moment and then stuffed the cigarette he’d pulled out back into the pack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corners of Qin Yanyang’s mouth rose ever so slightly, a subtle smile forming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are a very independent woman, your confidence reaching deep into your bones,\" Yang Fei began.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yanyang’s eyes sparkled slightly as she looked at him and said, \"Oh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Fei continued, \"You’re mature and steady, you handle things just right and consider every aspect. Even things you dislike, you approach with a courteous demeanor, you seem very approachable, making those who meet you want to draw closer.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yanyang smiled and said, \"Go on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Fei replied, \"But someone like you is actually hard to get close to, it’s difficult for anyone to truly enter your heart.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s because you are outstanding, and in some ways powerful, giving you a confidence that runs to the soul and marrow, a genuine self-recognition from the heart. Compared to those women who only know how to frown and are merely superficially haughty and indifferent, you are the queen among cold, aloof goddesses.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yanyang was a bit taken aback, as if carefully pondering over Yang Fei’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Fei stood up, placing an unlit cigarette in his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He headed outside, saying, \"I should find a job first, otherwise living at your place and eating your food makes me feel like a kept man, a powerless pretty face. With that said, how would I ever muster the courage to pursue you? Ah, my future wife is the queen among cold, aloof goddesses, winning her love is going to be tough!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Yang Fei walk away and hearing his self-deprecating muttering, Qin Yanyang couldn’t help but burst into a radiant smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She called out to his retreating figure, \"It’s not easy to hail a cab from here; there’s a car in the garage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At her words, Yang Fei stopped walking and turned back to look at Qin Yanyang, saying, \"Free board and lodging, plus a car, you’re making it easy for me to become decadent.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yanyang laughed as she walked upstairs to get ready for work, saying, \"Sure, like I said, I can afford to keep you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Fei still went out to look for a job.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t that he feared Qin Yanyang would look down on him but rather that staying at home was boring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Armed with a traditional Chinese medicine doctor certificate recognized by the United Nations, Yang Fei ran around several hospitals for a whole day but was turned away from each one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was frustrated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big hospitals not only demanded a variety of qualifications but also asked who had referred him, clearly indicating that to be hired one needed not just the necessary credentials but connections as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At around four in the afternoon, Yang Fei walked back toward Binjiang Garden Villa District.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About seven or eight miles from Binjiang Garden, Yang Fei came upon a private practice named ’Li Xuantong Medical Hall.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sign at the door indicated they were hiring apprentices trained in traditional Chinese medicine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The medical hall was large, and there were many people seeking diagnosis and treatment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Fei considered it for a moment and was about to enter when suddenly, from behind him, a stern voice sounded: \"Move aside!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice was as loud as a bell, filled with urgency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Fei frowned and turned to see a middle-aged man with sharp eyebrows and fierce eyes, anxiously carrying a man in his sixties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strong man, despite carrying another person, moved swiftly, his aura sharp and intimidating, deterring others from approaching him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Fei was initially annoyed, but realizing the man was in a rush to seek medical help, he relaxed his eyebrows and moved to one side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, as the burly man passed him, Yang Fei glanced at the sick man and his expression instantly changed.\u003C\u002Fp>",1485,"2026-06-06T01:16:49.014Z",1,"novelbin.me","12df5c19cc3805de37d30d14d49ec05b2113ac3e2582c08f9cbc78adf815856c","urban-invincible-overlord-chapter-6","urban-invincible-overlord-chapter-4",1470,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Furban-invincible-overlord-cover.jpg"]
