Chapter 1124: Chapter 745: Parental Hearts
First Watch.
——
“I knew you would co by before you left…” Elder Yuan handed a small box to Chuxia, “These are my notes I’ve compiled over the years. Read them often, they should be useful to you.”
This gift was truly too precious! Not knowing how to express her feelings, Chuxia chose the most traditional way: “Thank you, teacher. I will definitely work hard!”
“Hmm.” Elder Yuan nodded, “You have talent. As long as you are willing to work hard, your future achievents won’t be bad. However, don’t neglect your family. No matter how great the achievents are, if they can’t be shared with family, they are aningless.”
Chuxia quickly promised, “Yes, teacher, I will definitely pay attention.”
“Dad, why make it so serious?” Yuan Hui looked at her father with a bit of annoyance, “You’re aware of how sensible Chuxia is. She ca to see you before she left, not to get scolded.”
“This doesn’t concern you. Stand aside…” Elder Yuan glared at his daughter and continued, “Chuxia, we can et often next sester. By then, I will test your understanding of these notes, so don’t think I gave them to you just for show. You must truly digest them, understand?”
“Yes!” Chuxia looked at Elder Yuan with excitent, “It’s already finalized?”
Elder Yuan smiled and nodded, “Yes, the notification has arrived. However, my classes won’t start until the second half of the sester, so there’s no need to report imdiately.
By the second sester, you’ll be heavier, so I can be closer and keep an eye on your health. This way, your family won’t worry.”
“Teacher…”
Unexpectedly, Elder Yuan had considered this as well. Chuxia’s voice choked up. Words of thanks seed hollow, so she took a step forward, embraced the little old man, and hugged him tightly, “I will not disappoint you, in any aspect.”
“Okay, okay, okay…” Elder Yuan gently patted her back, “Child, I will share all I can with you. Our country is too short on talent!”
If she had heard this when she first arrived in this era, Chuxia would have been dismissive. But now, she was only moved. The old man genuinely worried. After a decade of turmoil, all industries lacked talent. Other things could wait, but lives could not!
Seeing his daughter’s concerns, Elder Yuan sighed inwardly and said, “I still have so work to finish, you youngsters go talk.”
“Teacher, do you need help?” Chuxia asked. Alright, she admitted she was still avoiding. Even though she knew it was not the right thing to do, she truly felt it difficult.
“No need, you go chat.” Elder Yuan gently patted her shoulder, then turned and entered the inner room. Before leaving, his glance clearly signaled Chuxia to stop leaving Yuan Hui hanging…
Sigh, she wasn’t keeping her intentionally waiting; she truly didn’t know how to handle it. So things should be said by Lin Wenbin himself, after all, she was an outsider.
“It’s Lin Wenbin who’s unwilling, right?” Yuan Hui was smart. Seeing Chuxia’s actions, she guessed a bit and bitterly smiled, “I told him before, if he truly isn’t interested in , I won’t cling to him. It’s okay if it doesn’t work out; it just ans we’re not ant to be. Sorry, Chuxia, for putting you in a difficult position.”
“No, no…” Chuxia quickly waved her hand, “It’s really not like what you’re thinking, it’s just…” She hesitated, deciding to be honest, “Sister, I didn’t want to intervene in this matter, but seeing the situation, my brother couldn’t co over and explain things to you anyti soon. Rather than have you guessing here, it’s better to tell you the truth.
My brother isn’t uninterested in you; it’s just that he’s not completely certain about his feelings yet, so he’s caught between wanting to be with you and fearing mistakes that might hurt both of you.
I know his actions seem unmanly and contemptible, but he has been hurt emotionally before, making him more cautious than others. I hope you understand, sister?”
“I see…” Yuan Hui nodded, “So, he won’t let go of the relationship, but also can’t commit, so he’s hiding, right?”
“You could… see it that way…” Chuxia stamred, her face flushed with embarrassnt. Although she wasn’t the one who caused this, she felt ashad for not handling such a small matter, especially when the teacher treated her so kindly…”
“One day, I will make him willingly be with .” Yuan Hui poked her forehead playfully, “Do you feel guilty towards my dad, hence acting like this?”
“Huh?” The words hit all the right notes. Chuxia looked at her blankly for a mont before patting her chest with relief, “Sister, are you a psychology expert?”
“Not really, but I’ve studied psychology. Combining that with analyzing your personality, it’s easy to know what you’re thinking. Plus, I know my dad asked you to help.” Yuan Hui sighed slightly, “My dad rarely seeks help, especially not from the younger generation. You know how difficult it was for him to say those things, right?”
“It ans the teacher cares deeply about you, sister. I understand. Also, rest assured, I can’t influence my brother’s feelings, but I won’t keep his true thoughts from you.”
“I know, which is why I care about what you say…” Yuan Hui gave her a gentle smile, “In the past, when I saw friends acting differently because they liked soone, I looked down on them. But now that it’s happened to , I understand.
These days, I’ve been very unsettled, thinking several tis about calling Lin Wenbin to question him on exactly what he ant. After the new year, he made a call to greet my family and that was it. What am I to him?
I even wanted to ask if soone introduced a better match to him after he went back, and he’s embarrassed to tell , hence deliberately leaving hanging.
Fortunately, my reasoning kept my emotions in check, stopping from doing such a thing. Chuxia, I tell you this to let you know that I am very serious about this relationship.
I also want to assure you that even if your brother and I don’t end up together, it won’t affect our relationship because matters of the heart can’t be blad on anyone. If we can’t walk together, it just ans we aren’t fated to be.
Moreover, I believe that even if we don’t end up together, I will eventually et soone who is truly ant for . I won’t lose confidence because of one failure.
I hope you tell your brother this when you go to Capital City, letting him know not to be afraid. I won’t cling to him or force him to marry . If it doesn’t feel right, or he truly can’t accept , I will leave voluntarily without him needing to say a word.
So, let him stop being a coward. Whether it’s his ex-girlfriend reappearing or bothering him, as long as he hasn’t changed his heart, I don’t mind.”
Yuan Hui’s words hung in the air, leaving Chuxia stunned for a long while before she asked, “Did my brother’s ex-girlfriend co to see you, sister?”
“Yes.” Yuan Hui nodded, “She told how wonderful their ti together was and said she now realizes the importance of that relationship.
She even said Lin Wenbin had agreed to rekindle their relationship and that the reason he doesn’t co to see is because he doesn’t want to face , so she ca instead.”
“Shaless!”
Other than these three words, Chuxia didn’t know how else to comnt.
“Indeed, I also think she’s shaless. Lin Wenbin isn’t an object that she can discard when unwanted and reclaim when desired…” Yuan Hui laughed coldly, “Also, her crude tactics only show her insecurity. If Lin Wenbin truly wanted to be with her, he wouldn’t be hiding from .”
“Sister is smart!” Chuxia gave her a thumbs up, “I can vouch for this. My brother truly has no feelings left for her. He also said it wasn’t genuine love, just that everyone thought they were a pair, so he felt they should be together.
He hasn’t dated anyone since the breakup, not out of nostalgia for that relationship but because he hasn’t t soone who makes his heart flutter and willingly be together with.
And I think my brother still hasn’t figured out what kind of girl is truly suitable for him. So he’s observing and hesitating. As long as you guide him slightly, Sister Yuan Hui, the result will definitely be different.”
Yuan Hui smiled and nodded, “Alright, I’ll guide him. Happiness is sothing to strive for. It doesn’t necessarily have to be led by the man, right?”
Chuxia chuckled as she looked at her, “Sister, are you feeling better now?”
“Yes.” Yuan Hui sighed, “Mainly it was seeing how worried my parents were about that made my mood particularly bad. If I do end up with your brother, I will definitely make him experience this feeling as well.
Chuxia, if you truly think my dad is a good teacher and treats you well, you must stand by , and don’t reveal my plans to him.”
“Alright, I’ll stand by you, sister.” Chuxia said seriously, “I also really think my brother is wrong. No matter what, he shouldn’t act in a way that worries our elders.”
“Fine, given that he’s been hurt before, I’ll forgive him.” Yuan Hui laughed as she looked at Chuxia, “You, following my lead, just wanted to say these words, right? Are you satisfied now?”
“Haha…” Chuxia laughed, “Sister, you’re really overthinking, I genuinely feel that way. Sister, I suggest you not analyze from a psychological perspective. It might work for others, but not for .”
Yuan Hui raised her eyebrows, “Are you saying you’re different?”
Chuxia sighed, “Sister, I’ve always stood by you. Is it really appropriate to say that about ?”
“Alright then, let change the term. Our Chuxia is unique. How about that?” With her mood lifted, Yuan Hui was in the mood to joke. (To be continued.
