A: Wang Qinian lives a more authentic life than I am.

B: What do you mean by authentic?

A: He fears his wife and loves his daughter. He lives his life for them. Though it's not easy for him sometimes, at least he's happy.

B: Isn't your life authentic?



I'm not sure of if that's grammatical. I just have a feeling that "a more authentic life than I live" would be fit. Am I wrong?
