Eighties Sweetheart Wife-Chapter 634: Irresponsible Statement

So, Song Yunuan said to Hai Shaoqing, "If you have something to say, just say it. There’s no need to hesitate and stop midway."

Hai Shaoqing pointed to these items and said to Song Yunuan, "Look, all these items... they are actually all from our Hai family."

Song Yunuan nodded, "Well, they must be from your Hai family."

Here, it wasn’t only jewelry and jade, but also many valuable antiques.

Such items couldn’t possibly belong to Zhong Daqiao, who had been poor for generations.

Of course, some might have been bought by him later, but ultimately, wasn’t the money used also from the Hai family?

But speaking of his own purchases, they were not that many.

Good items wouldn’t circulate this freely; most of them would go to an auction.

But speaking of auction items, to win them, you’d have to pay ten times their price.

However, Song Yunuan didn’t quite understand why Hai Shaoqing was telling her all this.

And naturally, she didn’t think that Hai Shaoqing was emphasizing or informing her.

So, Song Yunuan looked at Hai Shaoqing leisurely, listening to him continue.

Hai Shaoqing looked at Song Yunuan and felt compelled to organize his words.

"...My mom is my maternal grandfather’s only daughter; my grandparents were very much in love, so my mom was doted on as she grew up.

Her environment was filled with love; she seldom saw any darkness.

Although my mom was very astute in business and strong in management, she was very naive in matters of the heart."

Song Yunuan agreed with this.

Eldest Miss Hai had no defenses, while Zhong Daqiao had perfected his disguise.

Actually, Old Master Hai and his wife also bore some responsibility.

It was not the time to overly spoil their daughter.

Breaking up a couple forcefully, though harsh, would have been better than ending up in such a tragic situation.

But then again, when you are in the midst of it, how can you see everything so clearly?

It’s merely hindsight from those outside the situation.

"Men, I understand them well — when they cannot have you, they treasure every bit of you, but once they do, they always harbor a sliver of neglect in their hearts.

So as a girl, don’t make love the most important thing in your life, it really isn’t important.

In the face of life and death, love is trivial and insignificant.

The same holds in the face of dire poverty.

It’s hard to predict human nature; no one can assert with certainty that the person they care about is truly good.

You can’t control someone else’s actions and thoughts, but at the very least, you must control yourself.

Always leave a way out for yourself, and reserve part of what you invest."

Although saying this may seem cold and impersonal, my mom is a cruel example.

If only she had been a bit more clear-headed, not so blindly in love thinking Zhong Daqiao would always be good to her, she wouldn’t have ended up in her current situation.

Men say they will treat you well for a lifetime, but a lifetime is so long, how can they make such claims now?

So when he says he will treat you well for a lifetime, it is in itself an irresponsible statement.

Plainly speaking, it’s just pie in the sky; don’t believe it."

Song Yunuan hadn’t expected Hai Shaoqing to say these words to her.

She saw Grandma Song’s shadow in him.

It turned out that Hai Shaoqing got along quite well with Old Mrs. Song.

Whenever Old Mrs. Song made something delicious, she would certainly call Hai Shaoqing over.

Hai Shaoqing used to call her Grandma Song, but now he simply dropped the ’Song’, calling her directly Grandma.

Although Grandma Song’s influence was evident, Old Mrs. Song would not have said these things.

Did it make sense?

It certainly did.

So Song Yunuan nodded, "You make sense."

Hai Shaoqing looked at her helplessly; he had explained it so clearly, yet Little Nuan seemed to think he was talking about someone else.

So, biting the bullet, he directly said, "I know Gu Huai’an is a standout among men, excellent in every aspect, and I admire and look up to him."

Moreover, I haven’t yet seen anyone who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him, but in the end, he’s still a man—the kind of inherent flaws men have, I hope he doesn’t possess them.

But remember what I just said."

It was only then that Song Yunuan realized she was being cautioned, not to be like Hai Mingzhu who couldn’t see people for who they were and ended up harming others as well as herself.

That’s why they say girls in love can’t think straight.

Song Yunuan scratched her head, really wanting to tell the young man standing opposite her.

She was more open and understanding than he thought.

It seemed she was the one who didn’t cherish what she had obtained.

She was also the one who coaxed Gu Huai’an by promising to treat him well for a lifetime.

As for Gu Huai’an, he really hadn’t made any excessively sweet promises to her.

All those vows of eternal love and unbreakable bonds...those were absent between them; instead, it was she who might go off the rails with her words at times.

She hadn’t taken it seriously before, but now she wondered, was Gu Huai’an also somewhat abnormal?

Ultimately, men and women think differently.

Hai Shaoqing got the hint from Song Yunuan, and so, she readily agreed.

Hai Shaoqing then felt that he was worrying unnecessarily. How could Little Nuan, who was so incredible, compare to his mom?

He felt that perhaps these words should have been said to Gu Huai’an... right?

Ahhh!

He couldn’t continue to think about it; his mind was becoming a mess.

So, Hai Shaoqing looked at Song Yunuan.

At that moment, his gaze was as clear as water, almost without any impurities.

If he had ever been moved at any moment,

it was now buried under the sands of time.

His voice was gentle, with a hint of negotiation, "From now on, don’t call me ’Second Young Master’ anymore. Can you call me ’brother’? I consider you as my own sister, you’re the only kin I have in this world."

He then added, "Once you are my kin, your family is also my family, and I won’t be alone anymore."

Song Yunuan agreed without hesitation and naturally called him ’Brother.’

Hai Shaoqing’s eyes reddened, and he softly called out ’Little Nuan.’

-----------------

A considerably worn-out Zhong Daqiao called Hai Shaoqing.

That day, Hai Shaoqing just walked away, what did he plan to do next? Did he want to keep this jewelry company or not? Should he go check out those items stored in the warehouse?

After all, he had carefully prepared them. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

But if everything was truly in Hai Shaoqing’s hands, wouldn’t his actions turn into a joke?

So he made a call to probe.

As expected, Hai Shaoqing said to him, "Just like you said, it’s turned into a shell, what do I want it for? I might as well tear it down and build a building; the land can’t possibly be yours, can it?"

Zhong Daqiao’s face bore a sinister smile, "Mr. Hai Shaoqing, I’m really sorry but that piece of land is actually mine."

Only, it was currently mortgaged.

The money received from the mortgage was invested overseas.

Thinking of this, Zhong Daqiao felt dizzy again.

On the other end, Hai Shaoqing stayed silent for a moment, then said, "Anyway, you’ve left something behind for the Hai family. In light of this, if you say the land is yours, I won’t dispute it, I’ll give it to you."

These words sounded like thunderclaps to Zhong Daqiao’s ears.

Why did they feel so painful?

Humiliation, this was the greatest humiliation to him.

Then there was silence.

Hai Shaoqing’s face carried a smile as he seriously listened to the sounds from Dongfang Hong.

Surely enough, he heard intermittent, "Quick... to the hospital..."

That was the bodyguard captain’s voice.

So, he had passed out.

How fragile!
