"She actually persisted in dancing for several years afterward, and didn't give up even after getting injured. At that time, everyone thought she genuinely loved dancing,"
"Until later, when her mother asked her if she wanted to pursue dance as a career, she unexpectedly chose art painting and rarely danced after that, focusing instead on painting."
Jingmin was quite surprised by this little incident in the middle.
He had always known that she could dance, and danced very well. He knew she would represent the art academy at the school anniversary gala that year.
He made a special trip to watch her performance. On stage, she wore a gorgeous dance dress, and her graceful dance moves captivated the entire audience.
Light and graceful, dancing like petals in the wind, pure and beautiful.
It is so captivating that it makes one's heart flutter.
He stood below the stage watching her shine, watching her flutter out of the auditorium like a beautiful butterfly.
Follow her,
On the dimly lit, tree-lined path under the school's streetlights, she eagerly rushed into the arms of Yang Jinchu, who had arrived late carrying flowers.
Standing in the shadows, he could still hear the clear laughter even though he was some distance away.
So clear, echoing in the quiet night, it was also the year that so many things happened.
My thoughts drifted away.
Even now, when Jingmin thinks back on it, a sense of powerlessness and frustration still washes over him.
She used to be charming and mischievous when she was with that person.
Forever like a small, radiant sun.
This is nothing like how I am with him now—cold, indifferent, and distant...
"Grandpa meant that Grandma was too strict with Yangyang when she was learning painting, which caused her to rebel,"
"Even though she liked it, she chose to dance because of pressure from others, but because she didn't want to admit defeat, she persisted even though she didn't like it."
"So Grandpa is saying that Yangyang will insist on getting married even if he doesn't like it?"
Old Master Chu was quite speechless.
"Your perspective is quite unique. What I was trying to say is that we shouldn't just look at the immediate situation, but also consider the long term. Yangyang started saying he likes dancing."
"But in the end, she still chose painting, which is best suited to her strengths, and worked hard and persevered in it, which shows that she understood what she really wanted before making that unwavering choice."
"So she must have thought it through before deciding to marry you, even if you pressured her to do so?"
This was the first time Jingmin had heard Old Master Chu analyze this matter so thoroughly.
Because at the time, the fifth young lady of the Chu family was photographed spending the night in a hotel with the heir of the Jing family, even though she had a fiancé and the wedding date was already set.
This scandal directly impacted the interests of the Chu family, causing their stock price to fall.
He looked at Old Master Chu with some guilt.
"Why...why would Grandpa agree to the marriage knowing all this?"
Master Chu sighed.
"Jin Chu is a good child too. Her love for Yang Yang is no less than yours, but she cares about too many things, especially after what you did,"
"He still couldn't bear to pressure Yangyang, and he also had to consider his family, so he hesitated and missed the best opportunity long ago."
"One wrong move and the whole game is lost, but this game isn't over yet. Jin Chu is not one to admit defeat. If you concede now..."
Before Old Master Chu could finish speaking,
Jingmin picked up a white chess piece again and decisively placed it down.
"We didn't lose."
