Love is about the union of spirit and flesh, both are indispensable. So, whether lovers or married couples, a passionate and satisfying romance is essential.
After the intimacy, Cheng Su and Qi Taiguo lay side by side on the bed speaking.
"Why don’t you ask me how the competition went?" Cheng Su suddenly rolled over, lying on the bed, turned her head and asked him.
Qi Taiguo said: "If you want to say, surely you would tell me, right? So, how did it go?"
"Guess!"
Qi Taiguo pretended to think for a while, then said: "I guess you got third place?"
Cheng Su pouted, displeased: "Is that all my ability amounts to in your mind?"
Oh come on, third place, that’s just too bad!
Qi Taiguo laughed, pinched her nose, and said: "Just teasing you. My wife is so smart and beautiful, her cooking is so delicious; of course, she’s the big winner!"
Cheng Su became a bit embarrassed, covered her warm face, and said shyly: "I’m not as good as you say!"
Qi Taiguo laughed heartily.
Cheng Su sensed it later, stared, and said: "Oh, I know. You actually knew for a while didn’t you? Did Ning Ge tell you? You’re just teasing me on purpose, want to see me laugh, humph!"
"Why would I dare! I’m just genuinely happy." Qi Taiguo leaned over, pecked her lips, and praised: "Big winner, my wife is awesome!"
He indeed heard from Ning Ge that their company won the championship, hadn’t told Cheng Su, just wanted to let her share the joy.
"I heard that you personally took the field?" Qi Taiguo asked.
Cheng Su nodded, then spoke of how their company’s technician had been sabotaged.
Qi Taiguo listened, eyebrows furrowed, saying: "How could someone be plotted against like this, just for a competition."
Cheng Su scoffed slightly and said: "You don’t understand, so-called industry competition, business and battlefield are just as intense. When interests and honors are involved, what means aren’t used? Like drugging technicians so they can’t compete and lose a game, that’s child’s play, there’s even more extreme cases. Like before, our jam was adulterated by the Friendly side, there are many similar things."
Qi Taiguo pursed his lips, not having thought of this.
"This is how the world is, fierce competition, fast-paced. If you’re not strong, you’ll be done for. The so-called law of the jungle applies here. If a company can’t thrive, eventually it will be acquired by some large institution. Acquisition is good; the worst is directly driving it to bankruptcy." Cheng Su said: "Competition is everywhere."
"Hearing you say this, I really felt it is so, every industry has competition!" Qi Taiguo sighed.
Cheng Su nodded emphatically and sat up, looking seriously at him, saying: "So when you go for closed training and study at that place, you must not be careless. Carelessness can lose crucial opportunities; you should’ve heard this! Being able to go for training is already competitive. Don’t underestimate anyone; underestimating others means underestimating yourself, and the result is failure, got it?"
Qi Taiguo said: "Don’t worry, I understand."
Underestimating leads to a series of failures, he knows.
"Taiguo, standing out draws problems; when you go for training, set aside your captain position, just be a new recruit. Your only goal is to learn skills, learn how to become strong, but don’t show off." Cheng Su seriously added.
Qi Taiguo gravely agreed, said: "Alright, I’ll listen to you. It’s late, shall we sleep?"
The two lay down, turned off the lights, chatted for a while longer, then each fell asleep.
