"I really want to et my father’s expectations of . I hope I can beco an iron-willed career woman, just like the elders my father often talks about, who don’t need emotions and devote themselves solely to their careers. A woman who wants to stand tall always has to pay a price. I think I can do it, but I still can’t control my sadness inside... Am I letting my father down?"
"Silly girl, who told you that a career woman won’t have a happy family?" Qian wiped her tears.
"I figured it out myself. The career won my father introduced to are either divorced or single. How many n can accept their woman earning more than them and being more capable? When you’re busy to a certain extent, where is the ti for family and love? Qian’er, didn’t you also tell that when a woman becos strong enough, she doesn’t need a man anymore?"
Crunch. Yu Minglang almost bit through a bamboo skewer, looking sharply at Qian. This trouble-making woman had said such inhumane things?
Qian didn’t need to turn around to know that Yu Minglang was becoming difficult again, and she had to pretend she hadn’t noticed and continue to comfort Narcissus.
"I did say that—" Hey, the stubborn man behind , can’t you just let finish talking before getting angry!
"See! You admit you’ve said such things!" Narcissus beca even more upset. She seed to feel she was facing a choice—career or family.
"I did say that, but it was relative, not absolute. Won becoming strong enough indeed don’t need certain n. Like Liui’s ex-boyfriend, who is not very capable but has a big temper, ddles too much, and has a small mind, seeing won as appendages and tools for having children; such n are better off without. But with soone like my Xiaoqiang, and like your Daodao, full of rits and able to tolerate us, helping us hold up a family together, such n are worth having."
Qian said the last sentence looking at the man standing behind Narcissus, who was drenched and panting, looking at Qian holding Narcissus.
Finally, he’s here.
Qian looked at the man behind Narcissus and smiled.
This guy was quite sothing. It had only been a few minutes since he got the call. Did he force the taxi driver to speed over here?
Narcissus was facing away from the newcor and didn’t see him; she was still sobbing out her feelings.
"But I can’t give him anything. Dexi’s family is also well-off, why would he care for my family’s money? I can’t give him anything but money. I can only hold back his developnt. I so wish I could have been born into an ordinary family. How great it would be to support each other like you and Minglang. I also want to follow him, like an ordinary girl, wash hands, make soup, and wait for my beloved to return ho. But what about my dad? What about my dad’s lifelong hard work? I can’t ignore my dad. He’s cherished all my life, given life and everything. I can’t be so selfish!"
"If you can’t follow , then I’ll follow you! If you don’t ask directly, how do you know I don’t care about you? How do you know you can’t give anything?"
This voice made Narcissus freeze, her body stiffen. Was she hallucinating?
This voice that appeared in her dreams, was it, could it be—
"Oh my, I’m so moved!" Liui wiped her tears; she was about to cry. The annual tear-jerker drama, from tragedy to reversal, she was deeply touched!
Fugui silently handed over tissues. He thought Qian’s analysis was very correct; Liui indeed was a girl who seed strong but was soft-hearted inside, not as tough inside as she appeared outside.
Narcissus was frozen for a long ti, not daring to turn around. She was afraid that if she turned around, everything would turn to empty, just an illusion.
Qian encouraged her.
"Go face what you should face. Career and family have never been a single-choice question. You only see the few career won with unhappy marriages that godfather introduced, and think that a woman’s strong career aspirations an losing love. I don’t deny that the probability of broken marriages for career won is indeed higher than in ordinary families. This is tied to the instincts passed down from a paternal society, where so n have strong egos and don’t want to accept their wives being career won. So n compromise for money, but there will also be a small number who are not for money and not in that mindset, just staying together for pure feelings."
Qian glanced at Yu Minglang, and they exchanged a warm look. She knew Xiaoqiang was such a man.
"Such n are really rare. He must be strong inside, able to tolerate and understand his wife. He must have an indomitable confidence, not asuring feelings with money. When you turn around, such a man is standing behind you. I think you should have a personal chat with him."
Qian pushed Narcissus over, and Daodao imdiately hugged her.
Long ti no see, he seed thinner, and sothing was different... Narcissus suddenly noticed, was he wearing casual clothes?
Having known him for so long, it was rare to see him dressed so casually. He was always in business attire, in suits and ties.
"One, take your people and leave now, and we’ll settle the score later!" Zhu Dexi warned without looking back.
Yu Minglang imdiately grabbed two bottles of beer, and also took all the skewers on the stove, "Let’s go go go, we’re all leaving."
"I still want to watch..." Liui was dragged away by Fugui, a hundred tis unwilling.
Such deeply emotional rainy scenes are rare and yet unseen, it’s such a pity!
"If you want to see, I’ll confess to you once we get back. Don’t stay here, my little body can’t contend with these trained guys." Fugui said quite objectively.
According to a forensic psychiatrist’s observation, Zhu Dexi was in a highly excited state now, which between n and won, could easily lead to kissing after a confession, but between two n, might result in a brawl.
"Then I’ll look for my brother and sister-in-law~" Liui was clueless as she walked toward Qian.
Fugui dragged her back again, "Don’t disturb them either, don’t you know how cunning your brother is?"
Anyone could see that when Yu Minglang carried beer and tugged Qian toward the rocks by the sea, they were going for so private alone ti. Anyone being an unwelco light bulb would get into trouble!
"Ah, then what are we doing?" Liui turned around multiple tis per step, wondering what Narcissus and Daodao would be saying?
I wonder what sister-in-law and brother went to do behind the rocks?
"I’ll drive, and we’ll head back."
"Oh..." Liui was very disappointed; she was just going back like this.
The car was parked by the roadside, and the two got into Fugui’s several-hand run-down car.
"I’ll change the car once we go back. Next ti I won’t make you sit so bumpy." Fugui had been driving this old car for several years, always thinking there was no need to change until he t her.
"No need, isn’t it still drivable? You just bought a house, that must have cost a lot." Liui wasn’t the kind of girl who fussed over these things.
He suddenly leaned over, apparently intending to move toward her, making Liui nervous, suddenly recalling that kiss during truth or dare. Was today going to be a double attack?
