Chapter 644 Why Do You Like Her?
Cheng Xiaoyu pursed her lips, "I'm sorry, Mr. Shi, I didn't think that much..."
"It's not your fault. I didn't explain this to you clearly."
It was rare for Shi Chenyuan not to scold her, and this tolerance made Cheng Xiaoyu lower her head.
"However, I still feel that I should go and apologize today."
Shi Chenyuan laughed and jokingly said, "I'm actually quite curious why the hot-tempered Cheng Xiaoyu would want to admit his mistake so badly."
Cheng Xiaoyu was embarrassed for a moment.
"Boss Shi, I've seriously reflected on my actions. I really shouldn't have started it first. I made the first move, and while it seemed like I saved face, I actually put you in a passive position. I won't do that again."
She was like a child who had made a mistake, lowering her head and not daring to look at her parents' faces.
Shi Chenyuan looked at her with a much softer gaze.
"If you really argue with someone you dislike, you're putting yourself on their level. Instead of gaining a sense of security, you're actually lowering yourself."
Cheng Xiaoyu nodded seriously: "Yes... I know I was wrong."
Shi Chenyuan passed the poached egg from the pot to her and continued, "Also, at a large banquet like that, if He Xinyue had really spilled wine on you, believe me, she would have been embarrassed, not you. No one likes a domineering person."
Cheng Xiaoyu was stunned. So, if she had shown weakness and played the role of a harmless green tea girl, she would have won sympathy instead?
Shi Chenyuan looked at her annoyed face and couldn't help but laugh: "Don't think about it, you don't have the heart or brain to do it. It's better this way, at least no one will mess with you easily in the future."
“…”
Cheng Xiaoyu thought, Mr. Shi was praising her... right?
"But I still want to remind you that tolerance doesn't mean weakness. If you don't want others to look down on you, then you need to truly become strong and leave them speechless. As for face, it's also earned through your own hard work."
Cheng Xiaoyu felt his face getting hot and his eyes getting sore, and suddenly he couldn't eat the rice in the bowl anymore.
What Shi Chenyuan said was all right.
She thought of her good sister Su Jiuyao. In fact, when Xiao Jiu just married Gu Hanye, many people talked about her, but she never cared about those people. And as she got to know her, she found that she was a girl with both talent and beauty, and a kind heart.
She has things she is good at and things she wants to do. If she can't do them well, she will keep doing them. Her strong character is never about competing with others, but about making herself stronger, so strong that others have nothing to say and so strong that she can be satisfied.
Cheng Xiaoyu looked at herself again and felt that she was really childish...
"Mr. Shi..."
Shi Chenyuan shook her hand and said, "It's okay. You will grow up slowly. I'm not in a hurry anyway. I have enough patience to wait for you."
The tears that were welling up in my eyes suddenly flowed down.
She has done a lot of stupid things. Every time she can't sleep at night, she will think about them one by one and regret it endlessly.
Whenever this happens, I really hope to hear that it’s okay and I don’t need to blame myself.
But he is Shi Chenyuan, the president of Times Group and the eldest son of the Shi family. Why on earth would he be sitting in her small apartment and saying these words to her?
Cheng Xiaoyu stared at him blankly and asked foolishly, "Mr. Shi, why do you like me?"
Shi Chenyuan cleared his throat. How should he put this?
The reason I was initially interested in her was that I thought she was interesting and straightforward.
Of course, it was also because I had that night with her, and it left a deep impression on me. But I didn't want to tell her about it yet.
What really moved him was her authenticity.
"Maybe you're stupid."
