Chapter 229: Shen Su’s Thoughts
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“What do you think a man would do if he did something to let his lover down?” Lin Jun suddenly asked.
Dai Yuan did not understand.
Lin Jun didn’t turn around. A strange smile appeared on her face. “He’ll feel guilty for the rest of his life. He’ll be very guilty. From now on, he’ll treat Mu Yao and me especially well because he let us down.”
“Dai Yuan, don’t interfere with who’s in whose room tonight and what they’re doing. Sometimes, everything is fate! No one can fight with fate, understand? Go do your work.” Lin Jun’s tone was calm and clear.
Dai Yuan did not understand, but it did not stop him from doing his work.
Mu Ci was afraid that Bei Shuo would be bored, so he told her to look for Shen Su instead of following him.
Bei Shuo was getting impatient from socializing. She happily agreed and pulled Shen Su to the side to whisper.
Shen Su had already finished her work. She pulled Bei Shuo to a small hall at the side and got all kinds of snacks for her. The two of them huddled together and chatted as they ate. They were overjoyed.
Shen Su told Bei Shuo about her new job and exclaimed, “1 only know now how much of a waste of my life 1 used to live.”
Bei Shuo was curious. “Why?”
“It’s because I used to think about love in the past. With my family background, I’ve never thought of doing anything meaningful. I think it’s meaningful to my family if 1 live well and don’t cause trouble. However, I’ve never thought about what my life is meaningful for. It’s different now. 1 can use what I know and do many things. Moreover, it’s something that can help others. This kind of happiness… Phew. Bei Shuo, 1 can understand why you’re so persistent in treating illnesses and saving people.”
Shen Su didn’t get what she meant, but Bei Shuo understood what she meant.
She stuffed the snack in her hand into her mouth and nodded as she ate. “It’s so good to see you happy. It’s so good to see you. You should be like this when you’re alive! The meaning of work is to earn money, make yourself happy, and make others happy, right?”
Shen Su nodded and stuffed a piece of snack into her mouth like Bei Shuo. “I’m very happy! I’m surrounded by happy people!”
Bei Shuo thought of Yi Chen and Dong Ran and finally held back from telling Shen Su.
They each had their own boundaries. Just as Brother Stone had said, he would tell them when the time was right. Hence, the time should not be ripe yet.
Gu Ming passed by outside and was stunned when he saw them. Then, he smiled and nodded before walking over.
Shen Su’s gaze followed Gu Ming into the distance and she said softly, “He’s a good person.”
Bei Shuo, who was engrossed in her food, looked up and asked, “Who is it?”
Gu Ming,” Shen Su said softly.
Bei Shuo nodded. “I heard from Uncle Liu that he’s very outstanding at his job. Uncle Liu admires him very much.”
Shen Su stood up, straightened her back, and smiled. “The two of us were once in the same boat and helped each other. He’s a good person.”
Only then did Bei Shuo remember that Bei Le and Mu En were here. Only then did she understand what Shen Su meant when she said that they were all in the same boat.
She looked at Shen Su. “Have you really let go?”
Shen Su glared at her reproachfully. “What can’t I let go of? I’m not like Gu Ming. He can even walk out of their childhood sweetheart relationship. What do I have? I don’t love him to the point of dying!”
She thought for a moment and felt a little disappointed. “I liked someone else from the beginning, but I used Mu En as a substitute. Reality has proven that people who treat relationships as child’s play will suffer a backlash. I’m an example. Mu En and Bei Le won’t have a good ending either. Only Gu Ming is clear-headed and decisive. He doesn’t drag things out at all.”
Bei Shuo patted her shoulder. “You’ve done well too! Everyone says that you’re arrogant and irritable, but why don’t 1 feel it at all? I thought you would teach Bei Le a lesson. 1 think many people think so too.”
Shen Su shook her head. “Why should I teach her a lesson? This is between Mu En and me. Even if Mu En doesn’t look for her, he will look for other women. I can’t train myself to be a female warrior and fight everywhere, right?”
Shen Su smiled bitterly. “I don’t want to become my mother. She interfered in someone else’s marriage and snatched my father away. Hence, she was worried that someone would snatch her husband away every day and forcefully turned herself into a police dog. I don’t want to become like her.”
Bei Shuo patted her back sympathetically..
