Shen Dingkun never believed that acknowledging his despicable nature was a form of self-degradation of his character.
Everyone has a dark side, and he didn't get to where he is today solely by fighting against others in a righteous manner.
Sometimes you may have weapons, but you can't live without them.
Therefore, when he saw the young master of the Wei family openly hugging and kissing a married woman in the amusement park, even without regard for others, he naturally wanted to preserve evidence.
Perhaps this piece of evidence is the deadly weapon that ignites everything.
He might not need this evidence, and he could keep it forever, but he absolutely couldn't miss this opportunity.
Zhao Mingyao spent every day with her husband and even had a child with him, so she naturally knew him well.
She understood his unspoken meaning, and after a long silence, she slowly asked, "So, do we still need to keep their secret first?"
"Anyone else can tell this secret, but not you or me, unless you want my business to suffer retaliation."
Shen Dingkun's words were clear enough; it's not like Zhao Mingyao couldn't understand them.
It was precisely because she understood that her mood became extremely bad.
"Therefore, I cannot tell Su Hanze this news."
She used a declarative tone.
“I understand how you feel, and I know that you dare to mention his name in front of me, which means you have no feelings for him anymore. But I still suggest that you don’t interfere in other people’s lives. Maybe he already knows that he has been cheated on, but he still helps them cover it up.”
"He wouldn't do that. He's a man of dignity; how could he possibly suffer such humiliation!"
Zhao Mingyao subconsciously spoke up for Su Hanze.
Shen Dingkun gave her a cold look: "You haven't been in the real world for too long. You're very naive, and I will protect your naivety, but I hope you won't hold me back. Alright, now that you've seen it, let's leave here first and not let them find us."
Zhao Mingyao followed in her husband's footsteps, her tone clearly hesitant: "But, now that Jiang Tian has found another backer, will she still be devoted to Su Hanze? Will she still bring me back into the circle of wealthy socialites? I don't want things to fall apart halfway..."
More than worrying about others, Zhao Mingyao was actually very worried about how Jiang Tian's infidelity would affect her life.
After all, she had recently approached Su Hanze and told him that she hoped to reconcile with his wife so that they could go out together as best friends.
Once she has a firm footing, then we can consider whether to end the fake friendship.
However, Su Hanze has not given her a definite answer.
Zhao Mingyao wanted to ask, but was too embarrassed to.
Now, having stumbled upon Jiang Tian's affair with Wei Su, Zhao Mingyao was at a loss for words.
Subconsciously, she still believed that Su Hanze was unaware of all this.
A man as outstanding as him could have found any kind of wife. If he hadn't been so stubborn and married a commoner instead, he really wouldn't have needed to get entangled with Jiang Tian.
Even Zhao Mingyao wouldn't look down on someone like Jiang Tian. She's useless and has a daughter. In the eyes of the wealthy, she's practically a good-for-nothing. Instead of being a dutiful wife and mother, she chooses to have an affair. Not only that, she also latches onto an even more powerful second-generation rich kid. Zhao Mingyao feels terrible about this.
"Don't think about relying on others. You probably won't be able to get through to Jiang Tian. She dared to talk back to you even when she had no ability, let alone after she found someone to rely on. If you really want to learn how to be a wealthy housewife, then I still suggest you learn from my mother."
Zhao Mingyao's expression suddenly changed.
“You might think that being around my mother is very stressful, but there’s no denying that she’s someone who has truly survived in that circle for decades. You just need to win her favor to make a name for yourself in this circle. Right now, she’s just being stubborn with you, not that she doesn’t want to teach you at all. I’m just giving you a suggestion: if you want to learn something real, you should go to my mother, not Jiang Tian.”
Shen Dingkun analyzed the pros and cons for his wife from an objective perspective.
In this era, only family members will help each other.
Getting someone to help her without reservation is harder than climbing to heaven.
However, Shen Dingkun's words were met with strong rebuttal from Zhao Mingyao.
“I don’t want to have to put up with your mother’s attitude anymore. Yes, I can’t provide you with financial resources, nor can I appear in magazines or participate in business activities like other wives. I’m just a useless person who has achieved a good life by relying on you. But we fell in love freely. Marriage can’t be based on just one aspect. Otherwise, you could have married a woman from your own class.”
"Rather than being manipulated by your mother, I'd rather think of another way!"
Seeing that his wife was very resistant to his mother, Shen Dingkun did not continue to persuade her.
He was still very clear that the person he would spend his life with was his wife, not his mother.
He just wanted his wife to think carefully about the pros and cons.
Since she didn't want his mother's help, he decided not to bring it up again.
"Then you should think of another way. If you've figured it out, you can tell me, and we can discuss it together."
How could Zhao Mingyao deny that the husband she had chosen treated her very well?
Even though others might see him as a rather gloomy or domineering person, in front of her, no matter how impatient her husband is, he will still go along with her and pamper her.
Zhao Mingyao stopped talking and simply snuggled closer to her husband's arms.
Shen Dingkun held him, and neither of them spoke.
On the other side, Wei Su was still playing games with Jiang Tian.
He himself is willing to play any kind of exciting game, but since Jiang Tian wants to be with him, he has to consider her safety.
"This drop tower is quite scary. If you're afraid, you don't need to come with me."
Jiang Tian calmly shook her head: "I'm not afraid."
Wei Su stared at her and realized she wasn't lying, so he had no choice but to take her hand: "Okay, then let's do it together."
Jiang Tian was indeed not afraid at all, and she showed no emotion in the next few games as well.
Wei Su held her hand and played many games with her. Seeing that she was still indifferent, after getting on the bus, Wei Su picked her up and let her sit on his lap. He looked at her earnestly and asked, "Tell me, how can I make you happier?"
He said it sincerely; anyone could see that he genuinely wanted the woman in front of him to be happy.
Even if it comes at a price.
Jiang Tian looked him in the eye seriously and said, "Wei Su, I know you're doing this for my own good, but I still have to tell you honestly, I can't do it. I can't develop any deep feelings for strangers anymore. Sometimes I want to spend more time with you and treat you well. I know you're good to me. Besides my parents, my sister, and An An, you're the best person to me."
