"How could you just leave without saying anything! Why didn’t you talk to about it? Didn’t you say before that you wanted to work a few more years at the Yu Family? Why the sudden departure, is it for ?"
Wouldn’t that make her the one ruining his dreams?
"You always complicate simple matters. Didn’t I say I’d work a few more years when we first t? According to our families, once we established our relationship, I should’ve returned. I knew your family’s situation from the beginning, and your father spoke to . I can understand it."
"How could my dad do that! I’m going to talk to him!"
"Why bring up sothing said years ago? Besides, I agreed to it. I discussed with your father to see if I could get two more years. It was my selfishness; two years should’ve been enough. I dragged it out to four years. Now that your father’s health is declining, if I just stand by and watch you exhaust yourself with family matters, can I even call myself a man?"
Knowing the kind of woman he chose, understanding what he faced by choosing her, and having the chance to start a business with his brothers, staying at the Yu Family for so long was already a gain in Zhu Dexi’s eyes.
"Moving forward, I’ll be with you. Leave the social engagents to . I’ll handle the operations, and you manage. Together, we’ll work on our careers and boost the local economy. Think of the responsibility, it’s no less than at the Yu Family."
"But won’t you regret it?" Shuixian knew his feelings for the Yu Family were above everything else.
"No regrets. Although I’m reluctant, I have no regrets. The Yu Family is full of talents. Without , Zhu Dexi, there will still be others to fill my spot. But I know there’s a girl nad Teng Shuixian who needs . If I’m not there, there’s a void."
His hand rested on Shuixian’s heart, and her crystal tears fell on the back of his hand.
Moved, happy, or moved, or happy.
Shuixian held his hand, unsure how to express her feelings at the mont.
"Dexi, I’m truly afraid I might let you down."
His feelings were profound. Giving up his beloved career to help her, returning when she needed him most, nothing could be more heartwarming.
"There’s no such thing as letting down. This is my choice. Don’t feel pressured. You know, in the past six months, you’ve been putting too much pressure on yourself."
"Have I?"
"Here, there’s always a slight frown." He gestured to her forehead. Shuixian instinctively touched it, sensing a bit of tension.
"I’m always afraid that I’m not doing well enough. I feel there’s still a long way to go before I can truly take charge."
"You’ve already done very well. Your father has spoken to . He’s very pleased with your current performance. For a girl your age, you’re truly outstanding."
This was the truth.
Shuixian had the innate traits of a Shanxi rchant, along with her understanding. Teng Daye taught her everything, and Qian gave her secret guidance. Though just in her early twenties, Shuixian knew how to navigate complex business circles cautiously. There were never any issues, which was fantastic.
"I feel I’m still not excellent enough, at least not as outstanding as Qian’er. I feel like my growth rate is losing to my father’s aging speed." Making her father, who had gone through cancer surgery, work so hard for the family business and being unable to take over more quickly, Shuixian felt trendous pressure.
Besides Qian, the only person Shuixian could speak freely with was Zhu Dexi. In front of them, she didn’t have to co off as exceptional and could allow herself small worries like an ordinary person.
"See, you always set Chen Xiaoqian as your goal. Why do you have to compare yourself with her?"
"I just feel if I could analyze everyone as clearly as Qian’er, maybe I could be even more brilliant."
"You can’t be , just like I can’t be you. People of different natures have no grounds for comparison. If you were like , you wouldn’t be able to hold onto a man like Dadao, right, Dadao?"
Qian ca back at so point, accompanied by Yu Minglang. Upon closer look, one side of Yu Minglang’s face was slightly red.
He had shalessly taken advantage of Qian on the rocks and was slapped into submission when she couldn’t take it anymore.
"Haha, indeed. I wouldn’t dare ss with a woman like you. After all, I don’t have a face as thick as Yu Minglang’s." Zhu Dadao watched Yu Minglang, who had been hit but didn’t dare make a sound, put on a proud face to barely maintain his pose, making Dadao particularly satisfied.
This tyrant had finally t his match. Usually acting almighty in the company, seeing him humbled was imnsely satisfying.
"With my extensive experience in personality analysis, you two have complentary personalities. Shuixian has the drive, and Dadao has the tact. Shuixian can manage, and Dadao can operate. If you support each other well, you’ll maintain a relatively stable relationship. However, there’s one thing; under stress or unhealthy circumstances, your relationship can experience a significant breakdown, much like when Shuixian sent breakup ssages avoiding direct communication, leading to misunderstandings that almost let Mahadi take advantage."
This was delivered very professionally, completely from a psychologist’s perspective, making a great impression on Shuixian. It was indeed the case.
No wonder Qian suggested she claim pregnancy over the phone, as a form of therapy to enlarge the problem and prevent future incidents.
"Wait—did you send a breakup text?!" Zhu Dexi just realized he had been "dumped"?
When did this happen!
"Those texts are gone... so it doesn’t count!" Shuixian was guilty. How would she have known he was about to leave?
"Settle scores once we’re back. Regardless of how angry you are, try to understand her original intention. Zhu Dexi, don’t think you’re flawless. If you’d told her your plans earlier, she wouldn’t have been so anxious. So, don’t despise each other." Qian provided a very objective assessnt.
Zhu Dexi remained silent, admitting that Qian was right.
"Shuixian, you had an eating disorder, so your personality is sowhat anxious. This anxiety, used in work, makes you more comprehensive and can elevate your career. But it mustn’t affect your relationship. Rember what happened today. If similar situations occur—"
Everyone awaited the top psychologist’s advice, and Qian suddenly revealed a very comrcial smile.
