SIGNING IN: BEING SHOWERED BY HEAVENLY BLESSINGS FOR FIVE YEARS-Chapter 785 - 783: A HEART-TO-HEART TALK WITH SEAN

’It hurts!’ Ruby cried inwardly as she forced a smile to her face, listening to the love history of the guy she fell for at first sight.

Although she had told herself repeatedly that it was okay. Listening to that made her feel very ugly.

Her unrequited love got crushed before it could sprout into anything. It felt like a joke, to be honest.

However, she was a big girl. She was Diamond’s little sister. She shouldn’t shed tears for a guy many times.

Moreover, he didn’t do any harm towards her. It was just a love that couldn’t come to fruition. If her sister didn’t cry when she was betrayed by those she kept dearer to her heart, then why should she continue to be dejected?

If others were to see this, won’t they suspect Waylon of being a scumbag that he wasn’t?

She didn’t want to have a bad image. Wanting men with lovers. That would make not just Diamond crazy, but Ma Perry would skin her alive. She couldn’t afford it.

After cheering herself, she plastered a smile which looked better and responded, "I wish them well!" sincere with her words.

Sean’s clenched fist loosened when he heard that and saw how her eyes were clearing up.

"We all do! Anyway, let us put this matter to the side. Do you mind if I ask you something personal?"

That took aback Ruby at first before she nodded, looking a bit confused, since she didn’t know how personal what Sean wanted to ask was.

When he saw her agreeing, he smiled and his eyes upturned, making Ruby fall in a brief daze.

’He looks handsome when he smiles!’ she couldn’t help but praise sincerely inwardly.

Sean didn’t know what she was thinking but was in a slightly better mood.

"Um, what kind of boyfriend do you like?" he couldn’t help but ask while looking at her.

Ruby froze, the fork in her hand coming to a standstill when she heard that question.

’Oh! So, he is coming directly at me, this time!’ she thought, surprisingly at seeing how Sean was moving.

However, to answer the question, she couldn’t help but put the fork on the plate as she pondered over that question.

What kind of boyfriend did she like?

That was a complicated question. However, it needed to be answered and at the moment, she couldn’t help but be truthful.

She didn’t know what kind of feelings Sean had for her and she couldn’t give a person a death sentence before knowing him. Although Sean wasn’t her type and Waylon was more to her liking, people tend to be many-faced.

There was that saying, ’Never judge a book by its cover!’

"To be honest, I can’t really say there is a kind, but I kind of know what I want in a person that I am going to date. Some of it is derived from seeing what my sister went through. She had always taught me that rather than learning through experience, if it’s possible, then do all the best to avoid the worst experiences."

She had never forgotten how her sister dedicated so much time giving her life lessons with real-life examples to teach her.

She didn’t want to say that a candle is hot and can burn after getting burned. She wanted to know consciously that’s what it was like and avoid getting burned at all costs.

Sean had a wry smile when he heard Diamond being mentioned. Sean followed Diamond online. Although it’s been a while since Diamond hosted a heart-to-heart program and sharing her thoughts, he knew enough about how strong headed she was when it comes to love.

If Ruby followed Diamond’s steps, he could imagine how hard it would be to chase her. He couldn’t help but become worried.

However, when she continued to express herself, he found himself feeling relieved, as it wasn’t as harsh as he expected.

"He should be handsome or good-looking, at least. I don’t want to be with a guy I feel embarrassed to show to my friends or family. He should have a face that pleases not just me, but others I care for deeply."

’I have that face. Check!’

"He should be independent, ambitious and know what he wants. I can’t be with a guy who doesn’t have any goals in life and just lives each day as it comes. That’s not how you live a life. I don’t ask for him to be overly rich or own some company. He should work and have ambitions just like other men out there," Ruby seriously said as she looked at Sean before chuckling faintly adding, "I know for certain that in this life, our family will never be poor ever again. In fact, it will only get rich. With how good my sister is, that is not a question.

With such a sister, I can’t fall behind. I need to step up my game. Which is why despite being young, I have learnt to dabble in business. I don’t have to rely on my sister now. Even if she stops giving my pocket money, I can still survive and will continue doing better.

I already have my goals and am busy studying and earning money. If I can do it, then why can’t my boyfriend do it as well? I am not asking him to earn more than me, but he should do something, right?

I don’t want to be with someone who will start manipulating me into thinking that I can’t be with a guy just because I have money. I will not allow that."

Sean nodded heavily to that. Money is always an issue in relationships. Men tend to like girls who are below them since that would make it easier for them to control them. As men, they have always loved control. Seeing their lovers looking up to them, and relying on them. That was something that was engraved in the men’s DNA.

Of course, there were other men who didn’t mind being taken care of by their lovers. Besides, it might look that way but, on the outside, the same men will also go outside to raise their own lovers.

When a woman has a lot of money, men tend to talk just like that Ruby was talking about. It wasn’t a myth, but it’s something that happens all the time. He had seen that on his sister. It took her a while to find someone who truly loved her.

Her status was too intimidating for the men. They just couldn’t accept. Thankfully, after so many ups and downs, she found her match and now they were living together pretty well. With his sister still richer than her husband of course.

However, thinking about that in his own situation. He wasn’t the type who would think negatively simply because Ruby had money. However, one thing stuck to him. He wasn’t that ambitious, to be honest.

Before he met her, he just wanted to play and have fun. Even the job at his family’s company was forced on him. He couldn’t help but feel worried when he heard that. Could it be that she knew that he wasn’t ambitious enough?

It seems that he needed to change if he wanted to be with Ruby.

"He should be loyal and never do anything that will harm my family. We hate traitors a lot. In fact, my hatred for traitors is lesser than that of my sister. My sister can go crazy if she finds anyone with a traitorous heart. If you follow her, you should have heard her talking about her breakup with her boyfriend on Valentine’s Day!" Ruby said, a chuckle escaping from her, her gaze deepened though.

Sean remembered that pretty clearly. With Waylon who acted as if Diamond charmed him. How could he not know about that event?

"Um, I remember it. Could it be that her boyfriend betrayed her?" he curiously asked as he looked at her.

Ruby narrowed her eyes as she let out another chuckle.

"Um, he did. In a very bad way and my sister returned the favor a thousand-fold. Anyway, she is still returning the favor."

When he heard that, he couldn’t help but shudder. He remembered how Diamond dealt with the people who made life difficult for her online. The thought of how hard she would deal with someone who hurt her heart, and then perhaps transferred to him, Sean, didn’t feel good.

Ruby had no idea about Sean’s thinking. She was just stating facts. Honestly, when answering this for Sean, she felt grateful to him for being so brave to ask her that. At least this way she can share with him what she liked. At the same time, let him be aware of the dangers of using her, in case she falls for him.

Love comes unexpectedly when one least expects it. It doesn’t give any heads up or updates. It just .... Boom .... And it’s here. That’s how it does.

She might not be ready to date now, but who knows what fate has in store for them?
