"Isn't that right? No, you're just overthinking things and then blaming me. You were clearly in the wrong, but you actually want me to apologize. I didn't do anything wrong, so why should I apologize to you?"

“Because I’m your girlfriend…” the girl said, then reached out to stop the boy from speaking, “But now, it doesn’t matter anymore. Let’s just leave it at that and break up.”

"Break up? Fine, if you want to break up, then break up. I don't care. Let's break up then."

"Hehe, now I understand why your ex-girlfriend dumped you. It's because you're really stupid. I even regret not agreeing to the blind date my family arranged."

The boy froze on the spot for a moment.

But soon, his counterattack began.

The breakup was like tearing open the deep wounds in each other's hearts, causing the wounds that had finally healed to bleed again inch by inch.

The boy clenched his fists, tears already streaming down his face.

The girl burst into tears.

The boy turned and walked away, seemingly saying he was tired.

The girl squatted down on the spot, her wailing never stopping.

Just then, a voice rang out: "This guy is pretty good. Even after all that, he hasn't laid a hand on me."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu looked at the man and said coldly, "You seem quite proud of yourself? Isn't refraining from hitting people a basic quality that everyone should have? What? Didn't your parents teach you that?"

"Damn it, this is none of your business."

The man seemed very fierce. He stepped forward, clenching his fists. Chen Cixiu stood to the side, holding a bamboo skewer in his hand.

Why don't you give it a try?

He stared at the man and walked towards him step by step. "Come on, you think you're so tough? Hitting women? What? When your dad beat your mom when you were little, did you join in beating her? Don't you have any women in your family? Don't you have any daughters in your life? Idiot, if you really want to play, you can try it."

Because Chen Cixiu gave his jacket to Jiang Yu, he was wearing a short-sleeved shirt. His muscles bulged under the shirt, and veins stood out on the back of his hands.

The man's gaze fell on Chen Cixiu's muscles, then compared them to his own slender frame, and he cursed:

"Damn it, what bad luck."

The man turned and left.

Chen Cixiu returned to Jiang Yu's side. "Wife, I know you're just trying to vent your anger, but remember, don't say these things if I'm not around."

"But we can't remain silent either."

Jiang Yudao.

"Of course, I support your decision not to remain silent, but I'm worried about you. I hope you can also think about me. What would I do if something really happened to you? I can't stop all the criminals in the world, so I just hope you can stay away from them."

Jiang Yu squeezed his hand. "Okay, I remember. Don't worry, I won't do anything to make you worry."

The play ended, but the girl was still crying, and she seemed about to faint from crying.

Chen Cixiu and Jiang Yu saw the girl's friend arrive, so they left.

"Honey, what would you do if you were in this situation?"

Jiang Yu and Chen Cixiu were walking home when she suddenly asked the question from earlier.

Upon hearing this, Chen Cixiu smiled and said, "First of all, this question is invalid. First, I know my own wife. You wouldn't be like that girl, fussing over a small matter. Of course, I'm not saying it's wrong to fuss; after all, it's our right to protect it. Second, if you fuss and then realize you're wrong, you'll apologize yourself, and I won't even need to say anything. Third, combining the above two points, you are not that girl, and I am not that boy."

"So do you think it's better to reason with people or to appeal to their emotions?"

Jiang Yu asked another question.

Chen Cixiu watched her put the food in her mouth, wondering how she could think it wasn't spicy, since it was already quite spicy.

"Your question reminds me of a debate I participated in during college. The affirmative side's question was whether a relationship based primarily on emotion or primarily on reason would last longer. Our group chose to debate the topic of emotion."

"But I remember one sentence from the opposing side that was very good, and it's something I've always felt that if I were on the opposing side, I would probably choose that sentence as well."

"This means that, from an outsider's perspective, we should treat others and ourselves with rationality. If we respond to the wrong answers from the outside world, it will become a fuse on the road ahead. As for ourselves, we can be emotional occasionally, because that is a necessity for our lives, but rationality will accompany us throughout our lives, whether it is emotions or life."

After listening, Jiang Yu reached out and touched his face. "So what was your debate back then?"

Chen Cixiu asked, "How did you know I would be the next to debate?"

“Because usually, if you can remember something so clearly, you’ll definitely be the one in the next debate,” Jiang Yu said with a smile.

Chen Cixiu shook his head. "I said at the time that it was no longer important, because when I think back to what I said then, it's all blurry. But I think that emotion and reason are equally important. When it comes to dealing with foreign affairs, we should indeed prioritize reason, of course, on the premise that it does not involve our own interests or damage our own feelings."

Jiang Yu took his hand and asked curiously who won back then.

Chen Cixiu replied to her, "Emotions won."

Why did we win?

Because of his emotions, he threw out a trump card, and that trump card was similar to what the girl had just mentioned.

Chen Cixiu and Jiang Yu not only ate some melon seeds, but also chatted all the way, passing the afternoon.
