Chapter 195: Teaching Her to Grow
"Are you serious with Bian Yue? Is it necessary to do this?" Shen Zhaoli couldn’t understand, "Bian Yue is your wife; if she really has a problem, can you bear to not care about her? What’s the point of letting her suffer like this?"
After Shen Zhaoli finished speaking, he didn’t get a reply from Shen Jinci for a long time.
"Tell me, did you have a fight with Bian Yue? Are you intentionally making her suffer to teach her a lesson?" Shen Zhaoli reasoned, then overturned his own theory, "No, that wouldn’t make sense. Then you wouldn’t need to continue pushing this partnership. What are you really thinking?"
This time, Shen Jinci finally spoke up.
His tone became increasingly calm, "If Bian Yue just wanted to make Honey a leader in the industry, Lixing could certainly help her without reservation. I’m always willing to give my wife anything she wants on a silver platter. But what Bian Yue wants is independence."
"Is there a difference between the two? If Honey becomes a leader in the industry, wouldn’t Bian Yue be considered independent?"
"She wants to use Honey as a starting point to revive the fallen Bian Family and also wants the Li Family to pay a price. To achieve these, she needs to be powerful enough on her own."
Shen Jinci paused here, his voice becoming softer, "I’ve always been reluctant, although I claimed I hoped she could stand on her own, I was still afraid of her suffering and couldn’t truly let go. But now, I realize that sometimes, too much protection can also hurt her."
Shen Zhaoli was silent for a long time and ventured a guess, "Someone offered better conditions than Lixing, but Bian Yue doesn’t know how to decide?"
Shen Jinci took out a cigarette from his box; the light smoke lingering in the meeting room made his expression even more elusive.
