Jiang Yu was silent and drank another glass of spicy and strong whiskey.
Yang Xun capped the bottle and put the whiskey aside, staring at Jiang Yu with his sharp eyes. "You've had enough. Don't drink any more. You can't think when you're drunk. Think carefully about what we said tonight."
Suddenly, Jiang Yu laughed at himself, his eyes filled with contempt. "My mother said that Zheng Enxi was an orphan she adopted, and she is not my half-sister. I... am ridiculous, and I really deserve it!"
From childhood to adulthood, I have neither fatherly love nor motherly love. My grandfather is very strict with me. I cannot make even the slightest mistake. I can only do what he wants. In order to survive in the Jiang family, I can only compromise. Therefore, I have longed to see my mother since I was a child.
Sometimes, I wonder why Mom doesn't want me? Why does Dad hate me so much? Why does Dad only hug Jiang Yun and not me? In the entire Jiang family, only Grandma pities me and comforts me. This is my only reason for existing in the Jiang family.
When I learned my mother was in Binzhou, I was thrilled, but also terrified and overwhelmed with worry. While I wanted to protect her, I was also afraid she'd abandon me. When I learned I had a half-sister, she fed me leeks and dumplings. You have no idea how much I cherish that little bit of blood connection.
I learned that my mother was wronged, kicked out of the Jiang family, and suffered humiliation. As a son, I felt sorry for her and wanted to share everything with her. So, within my ability, despite Zheng Enxi's malicious intentions, I still forgave her.
In the end, it was all in vain. My closest relatives are only my mother and grandfather, but fortunately, I also got my mother's approval. I don't know whether Zheng Enxi provoked Jin Xue later, but at least Jin Xue never trusted me and never communicated with me.
Yang Xun pursed his lips and said softly, "So, it takes two hands to clap! You both keep your worries to yourself, and the complaints just keep piling up. Over time, you only see each other's shortcomings, and you only dwell on those shortcomings, and the conflicts become deeper and deeper.
It's undeniable that Jin Xue is also quite strong-willed and lacks a sense of security. Therefore, fearing being hurt, she doesn't want to trust you and only wants to escape. Escaping is not a fundamental solution to conflicts; it's like killing one thousand enemies and injuring eight hundred of your own."
Jiang Yu held his forehead and said nothing.
Yang Xun advised: "Go home, your mother is waiting for you at home, don't let her worry about you. Sort out your emotions, there are still many things waiting for you to do. Think about what you have done, judge whether it is right or wrong, and remember to think from another's perspective. Read the book."
Whether you listen or not, I hope you will be cautious with Zheng Enxi and give yourself some space for reason. You may not be able to see what kind of person she is at the moment, so let time tell."
Jiang Yu nodded, but said nothing.
Tonight, after talking too much with Yang Xun, he felt inexplicably relieved and his chest didn't feel as uncomfortable anymore.
…
Taking advantage of the time to deliver the documents, Zheng Enxi went to the Jin Group.
The front desk secretary informed Jin Xue that she didn't want to see Zheng Enxi at first, but after hearing the front desk secretary relay Zheng Enxi's original words that she wanted to talk about the child, Jin Xue asked Zheng Enxi to come up.
Zheng Enxi walked in with a haughty step, sat proudly opposite Jin Xue, and competed with Jin Xue with an arrogant look.
Jin Xue's pretty face was expressionless, and her sharp eyes, gleaming with slyness, stared at Zheng Enxi. "You want to talk to me about children? What do you know? Why should you talk to me about it?"
