As she walked, she heard the sound of a car behind her, and she turned around.
Seeing the familiar car, Yoshiko Takeuchi didn't mince words and went straight back to open the car door—
"I lost control just now."
When someone speaks ill of her husband to his face, it's as if her beloved possession has been belittled and rendered worthless.
As she spoke, she looked at Sun Lifang and said, "I'm sorry."
He nodded, and for a moment the car fell silent.
After a long while, Sun Lifang suddenly spoke, "Are you happy?"
No matter how well someone acts, there will always be flaws.
Is Yoshiko Takeuchi truly happy?
She was already the perfect woman in the eyes of the world, but Sun Lifang couldn't sense her emotions.
When we looked into each other's eyes, they were like a deep, dark, shimmering pool, dark and empty.
Even when she was on the phone with Fu Sheng, her eyes remained indifferent.
A smile played on his lips, but his gaze remained unchanged.
"No need to say anything, I know." Yoshiko Takeuchi turned her head and said softly, "I understand what you want to say."
"Assuming what you're saying is true, men are all opportunistic creatures who play games."
Everyone can tell which is more important and which is less important.
Fu Sheng would never dare to get angry in front of Takeuchi Yoshiko; he could only flatter and coax her.
Even if it's just pretense, you have to keep pretending forever.
"What are you talking about?" Sun Lifang was completely confused. "You can tolerate being with that kind of person?"
She was met with a faint smile from Yoshiko Takeuchi.
Having been raised in the Japanese family model where the husband is the breadwinner and the wife stays at home, Yoshiko Takeuchi was also influenced by this.
But their family was different; it was the other way around. Yoshiko Takeuchi was in charge, but she still left some space for the man.
After calming down for a while, Yoshiko Takeuchi had figured it out. She said softly, "That's what everyone does."
Indeed, island nations have the highest infidelity rate in the world.
As the eldest daughter of the Takeuchi family, her mother taught her from a young age that being virtuous and kind also required learning to weigh things carefully.
The same applies to entertainment gossip in the newspapers: what can the wife and the mistress possibly achieve by fighting?
Is it for money or for love?
"The money's in my hands, as for love—"
"If you really want to, just leave it at home." My mother often said that no matter how wild a man is outside, he will always come home.
There is no cat in the world that doesn't steal fish; if there isn't, it's because men don't have the ability to steal.
This is why most poor men who become successful divorce their original spouses, while wealthy men do not.
As an emotional mentor, Yoshiko Takeuchi felt she had a very clear understanding of things.
Even though I say this, my heart is heavy.
She couldn't accept it, yet she couldn't retaliate against the constraints imposed on her by societal norms.
What would my mother say if we got divorced? What would the Takeuchi family say?
There are many clues in today's scene.
Actually, a closer look would reveal the truth, but Yoshiko Takeuchi preferred to pretend she didn't know.
She prefers a peaceful life and doesn't want to get caught up in chaos again.
She had had enough of that kind of life when her father passed away.
A confrontation would only drag her back into that nightmare, leaving her helpless and alone.
"you......"
Sun Lifang couldn't think of a retort for a moment.
Even if the other party is reasonable and well-founded, it's still best to analyze yourself from the perspective of a relationship coach.
In either case, she cannot get a divorce.
Yoshiko Takeuchi couldn't imagine what would happen after a bitter divorce.
She had been lonely for so long, and finally found a companion.
People with progressive ideas hate that she lost herself, but think about it carefully—
No one taught her how to live authentically.
She dedicated her life to her family, placing their happiness above her own.
At that moment, Sun Lifang saw herself.
That's true. People born in the 1960s and 1970s, where do they find idols or role models to tell them how to live?
One can only find one's own path to comfort by exploring step by step amidst worldly oppression.
Even though Yoshiko Takeuchi is as outstanding as she is, having grown up in an economically developed country, there are still people who tell her, "Women should be good wives and mothers to make men happy; men should just come home."
What about myself?
By the time she learned about new ideas such as women being able to speak out boldly, have freedom of dress, and fight for a voice in society, she was already lying in a hospital bed.
Who do they communicate with?
Nobody wants to talk to old ladies like them anymore.
Having been reborn, she understood and could objectively accept her own and her child's imperfections.
But Takeuchi Miko didn't understand.
She was born in 1966, a generation that experienced the rapid economic growth of the island nation during the Showa era.
However, ideological development lags behind economic development, and the spiritual culture remains outdated.
"Can you keep your money safe?" Sun Lifang changed her perspective. "Men are all about money. What if he takes your money one day? Wouldn't you be in danger?"
A head-on rebuttal will only provoke resistance. The woman's voice was light. "Since you've already accepted that your life will remain unchanged, shouldn't you be careful to save money for your children?"
Yoshiko Takeuchi had no children, so Sun Lifang deliberately stabbed her.
This kind of person only changes when pushed to the point of being unable to stand it anymore.
Today's move is to plant a seed in Yoshiko Takeuchi's heart.
With the old ideas giving way to the new, it remains to be seen which will prevail.
but--
Sun Lifang thought of Lin Zhenzhen, who was inside the golf club bag.
With this ticking time bomb, Yoshiko Takeuchi has no choice but to change, otherwise Lin Zhenzhen will not let it go.
I have no children.
In response to Sun Lifang's question, Yoshiko Takeuchi said that she wanted to leave money for her child.
