After he left, she slowly leaned against the coat rack in the entryway, her heart feeling complicated.

Could it be that she really needed to do what her sister-in-law suggested, and use a child as a means to test him?

But no matter what, for now, the fact that he agreed to let her go to work is good enough.

When two people are together, they need to adjust to each other; it can never be just one person’s decision.

As for marriage, she is not in a hurry. She might even say that she doesn’t want to enter marriage so early.

But is she being selfish? She just feels that she can refuse, but he must not want that.

...

Everyone’s life goes on, whether or not it’s the life they want. If you have the ability, change the life you don’t like; if you don’t, then just accept it.

The new school season started. Wen Yu went to school, and right after entering school, he was roped into doing research by some senior students with excellent abilities.

He spent every day soaking in the laboratory.

In school, doing experiments and obtaining patents can offset some exams and earn grades, which to him was a win-win, as it allowed him to focus on research.

Such days were both fulfilling and monotonous.

Until one day, a popular senior in the student council had a birthday, and they suggested going out to relax and have fun.

That senior looked at him expectantly, but Wen Yu politely declined with an indifferent expression.

Using busyness with experiments and having many things to do as excuses, he turned down the invite.

That group of people could only complain about the letdown and decided not to take him along.

Wen Yu felt just as well, enjoying the tranquility. Although he entered the class with excellent grades, there weren’t many people in the class he wanted to interact with.

He liked walking alone and wasn’t afraid of loneliness.

After all, flocks are for sheep, while beasts always walk solo.

However, staying to do experiments alone was also unproductive. After everyone left, he spent another hour alone, then changed clothes and left after closing the door.

He wanted to find a quiet place, but unexpectedly, his phone suddenly vibrated with a message.

Sender—Jiang Cheng.

The young master of the Jiang family.

The message read: "Same place, come over tonight if you’re free."

"Not free," he replied.

After a moment, Jiang Cheng sent another message: "What’s more important than making money? Come on, there are many partners invited today, come meet them."

Jiang Cheng liked Wen Yu.

More accurately, he admired him.

Admired his high intelligence, and exceptional appearance, and that precocious maturity of mind.

Deep down, it’s as if something is wrong with him, he doesn’t like those who have had everything smooth sailing since childhood, showered with parental affection. Maybe it’s jealousy, maybe something else, but he prefers those who have faced turmoil and suffering since childhood.

But he naturally disapproves of those who turn into scum.

What he admired were the strong ones who rise against adversity, possessing extraordinary abilities and perseverance, something ordinary people find hard to achieve.

This is one of the reasons why he valued Wen Yu.

He introduced his clients and friends to him.

Seeing Jiang Cheng’s message, Wen Yu’s gaze deepened slightly.

Many of his friends and partners were coming?

Could it be...

He didn’t know what he thought of, cleared his throat slightly, and finally lowered his head to reply with one word: [Okay.]

In the night of Beijing...
