Chapter 1226 - 1167: Marriage—What Does It Mean? (3)
Chu Jingyun straightened up and said, "In that case, I’ll leave first. I have four classes tomorrow morning, so I need to go back and prepare!"
After saying that, she was about to turn around and leave, not waiting for Ji Xiangling’s response.
"Wait..." Ji Xiangling suddenly called her to stop and asked, "Miss Chu, do you look down on working with me?"
Chu Jingyun frowned and said, "No, I just don’t want to involve too many people. Besides, I don’t think Shi Nuan and A Yu can last long. If they are destined to part, they will separate even if we do nothing. If they are fated to be together, even if we split them up, they will still end up together in the future..."
"Tsk tsk, such lack of ambition!" Ji Xiangling said, "Miss Chu, I know you are a teacher and disdain doing many things, but you can’t let go of certain people, like A Yu. While you act aloof and pretentious, you tell yourself that working with me is right. You must find yourself annoying with all this conflict, and as your partner, it’s even more frustrating..."
Chu Jingyun’s fingertips trembled. She wanted to say something but didn’t know how to say it.
Ji Xiangling stood up, leaned closer to Chu Jingyun, and said, "Actually, I share your pride because I was with A Yu for seven years during his toughest and darkest times. I left once and refused to compete with anyone because I believed A Yu would eventually be mine. No one understands him better than I do...
In this aspect, you must have had similar thoughts, because you accompanied him for seven years too. You believe his startup years were the hardest, so you waited, even when others were by his side. You waited for him to return, to be alone again...
But Miss Chu, you and I both know that this time is different. There’s not just a woman by A Yu’s side, he married her. Marriage, do you know what that means?
I’ve told you the reason A Yu married Shi Nuan, and you should understand that as long as his heart is with her, he won’t give up on her. You and I won’t have any chance, I mean any..."
...
Chu Jingyun walked out of the café and got into her car, her thoughts still chaotic.
She understood what Ji Xiangling said, so even though she was upset, she didn’t plan to end their partnership.
She envied Shi Nuan, and sometimes even Ji Xiangling.
Because Ji Xiangling’s goal was clear: she wanted Song Yansheng, and she was willing to fight for him.
But as for her, she only knew how to wait.
Ji Xiangling was right, she once took pride in being by Song Yansheng’s side for seven years.
Even when facing Ji Xiangling’s seven years, she felt she had the upper hand.
People change, especially during the seven years abroad, when Song Yansheng was still young, burdened with many responsibilities, leaving no time for romantic relationships.
But it was different for her. She met Song Yansheng when he was twenty-two, and she was twenty.
They were at their best age. Yes, they met at the best time.
Back then, she was so happy and felt her life would be different at twenty.
But she didn’t expect that after seven years of waiting, it would all come to nothing because he harbored feelings for someone impossible to have.
Simply because he found someone similar to that person!
She really couldn’t accept losing like this.
She took a deep breath, watching the traffic bustling in the city.
There were occasionally impressive elite men on the street, but none of them were him.
None of them could be him.
Besides him, she felt she could no longer love anyone else.
This must be the tragedy of a woman!
She tightened her grip on the steering wheel, her gaze shifting from wandering to focused and fierce.
She told herself: Ji Xiangling is right. Regardless of who eventually gets that man, the first thing they both had to do was make Shi Nuan leave him and make him stop loving her.
Only then would they have a chance!
She pressed her lips together, put on her headphones, and started the car.
...
At five in the afternoon, Shi Nuan clocked off on time, but Song Yansheng did not come to pick her up.
However, he called, saying he would arrange a driver to take her to TK first, and then they’d go home together.
Song Yansheng mentioned that tonight there would be a guest at the Song Mansion, and the guest would stay there for a bit.
Shi Nuan didn’t think much of it, figuring anyone staying at the Song Mansion must be someone Song Yansheng knew well.
She packed up her things and went downstairs, not expecting to run into someone she hadn’t seen in a long time at the entrance of the Shi Family.
