Chapter 1371 No Need to Change, Sense of Security
Qin Zheng almost burst into tears when he heard Cao Yuanyuan's words.
Liu Meilan was truly his benefactor; if he had hesitated any longer, he might have really lost the person he loved most.
"I know this has nothing to do with anyone else, it's just about my love for you!" Qin Zheng said in a deep voice. "If you think I'm not good enough, you can tell me, and I'll change!"
Cao Yuanyuan smiled and said, "Because I love you just the way you are. You don't need to change! Just live your life as before, be free and easy. Our love isn't about changing you, but about understanding each other and becoming better people!"
When she applied for the study abroad program, she subconsciously wanted more, even hoping to have the best of both worlds, but she underestimated Liu Yibang's principles.
The underlying logic is that both she and Liu Yibang wanted the other to change, but neither of them did, which is why they broke up.
Now that she's dating Qin Zheng, she's figured out a lot of things. Why should she expect others to change? If she can't even change herself, what right does she have to demand it of others?
This is also a lesson she learned from her previous relationship.
Qin Zheng smiled, "Okay! I'll come visit you when I'm done with my work! Get some rest!"
"Okay!" Cao Yuanyuan hung up the phone, a slight smile playing on her lips. She had completely moved on from her previous relationship and was starting a new chapter in her life and love life.
The past has faded into memory with the passage of time, and a bright future awaits her.
Liu Meilan was sitting in the passenger seat. After listening to Qin Zheng's phone call, she raised an eyebrow and said, "I was right, wasn't I?"
Qin Zheng nodded quickly, his eyes filled with gratitude. "Meilan, I really want to thank you! If I had hesitated any longer, I really would have lost Cao Yuanyuan!"
Liu Meilan raised an eyebrow, "Luckily you were still salvageable, knowing to call immediately! I wish you happiness! I'll be at your wedding banquet!"
Qin Zheng smiled, "If all goes well, we'll get engaged by the end of the year. And after she gets a job in Shanghai next year, we'll get married!"
"It's great, very relaxed!" Liu Meilan praised him. His married life and family life are very happy, so she also hopes that the people around him will be happy and fulfilled.
Only in this way can we devote more energy to our work, instead of losing our rationality and fighting spirit while being worn down by trivial matters in life.
"I need to be more proactive, after all, you all already have children, and I'm not even married yet. If you're one step behind, you'll be behind at every step! By the time your kids are in school, my child will probably just be born!"
Liu Meilan smiled and said, "Then you need to be prepared. Cao Yuanyuan is a strong-willed person. She has studied for so many years and learned so much. She will definitely not give up her career! Having a child is fine, but you must think about how to raise the child! Only by resolving her worries can you take care of her career."
Hearing this, Qin Zheng stroked his chin. "That's simple! I don't live with my parents anymore, and we won't after we get married! There will be far fewer conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. We have a nanny for the child. If you're still worried, you can ask my parents-in-law to come and help take care of the child, assisting the nanny!"
"Why didn't you ask your mother to help take care of the child?" Liu Meilan asked in surprise.
Qin Zheng scratched his head. "My mom is a strong woman too! Even though she's retired now, her personality hasn't changed! She usually travels with my dad and participates in calligraphy and art associations; her life is very fulfilling!"
“I have two older brothers. When they had children, my parents didn’t help take care of them! At most, they paid for nannies and postpartum care centers. So I don’t want her to interfere in my family life either.”
"If my parents-in-law can't get away, I'll reduce my workload! I'll take care of the kids. Anyway, I mostly do investments, and each project has a key person in charge. As long as it's managed properly, my workload isn't actually that much!"
Liu Meilan smiled and gave a thumbs up. "That's the right way to think. Anyway, you've already earned enough money! Family harmony is the most important thing! Even if you can earn a lot of money and let Cao Yuanyuan stay at home as a full-time housewife and satisfy her shopping desires, in the long run, she will lose that spark and the charm that attracts you."
“Having a high-paying and challenging job might take up a lot of her time. As a result, she has less time to devote to her family, but this will give her enough security. When she is with you, she will always be the confident and talented Cao Yuanyuan, not the rich wife who asks you for money!”
Qin Zheng was deeply shocked. He thought of the relationship between his eldest brother and sister-in-law, and his second brother and sister-in-law. Both his eldest and second sister-in-law were once very outstanding women who became housewives after having children.
Although their comfortable lives make them wealthy and content, they have less and less say in their families.
Sometimes he even saw the neglect his older brothers showed when they talked to their partners, and felt that they were out of touch with society.
The eldest and second eldest brothers were upright gentlemen at home, but Qin Zheng accidentally saw them entangled with other women.
Although he warned his two older brothers not to act recklessly, they were fearless, believing that their wives, being wealthy, would never divorce.
Indeed, that was the case. The eldest and second sisters-in-law did not mention divorce, and even pretended not to know that their husbands were having an affair with other women, maintaining a semblance of dignity.
But beneath this calm, the two sisters-in-law no longer had any affection or love for their husbands; only deliberate flattery and forbearance remained in their eyes. They valued money more highly, as if only by grasping it could they keep everything they deserved and prove that their choices were right.
The thought of such a life sent chills down Qin Zheng's spine. "Meilan, I understand what you mean! From beginning to end, I never intended for Cao Yuanyuan to stay at home as a full-time housewife. If Cao Yuanyuan weren't a very independent person, she wouldn't have secretly gone through the process of studying abroad without telling your third brother!"
“I see it very clearly. Although Yang Wenwen deliberately guided her, Cao Yuanyuan didn’t have that intention, and no one can force her! She paid such a high price to study abroad and has a respectable job, which gives her a lot of confidence. I will respect her!”
Liu Meilan smiled, "That's wonderful! You've grasped the true meaning of love and marriage! Keep it up, you'll be very happy!"
"With role models like you all in front of me, of course I've learned a lot!" Qin Zheng smiled. He had previously analyzed the relationships and marriages of Liu Meilan, Liu Yibang, and Liu Yiwen.
Respect, sincerity, mutual understanding, and mutual support are the best conditions for love and marriage.
He hopes that his marriage and romance will not only be dazzling and beautiful at the beginning, but also, like fine wine, mellow and lingering, ten, twenty years or even longer.
