Chapter 187 - 18 Pride
"Wanwan makes a good point," Shen Chi looked at Xu Ji and said, "To put it bluntly, Ping’an’s future is fraught with too many hardships. Instead of living each day in cautious suffocation, it’s better to treat every day as if it were the last day of life. Only then can one live a lifetime of happiness, not having passed through this world in vain."
If this had been said by someone else, Han Shouzhen would have fought with them, but even so, her eyes reddened, and she felt somewhat relieved. People have to face the facts, and sometimes, when one cannot get out of a difficult situation, they need help from others.
Of course, if it were someone else, Shen Chi wouldn’t have interfered. After all, it was because he took an interest in his bargain sister that he decided to forgo the usual social maneuvering, choosing to interact with her in a straightforward and sincere manner.
He didn’t know what Han Shouzhen was like before, but now, in Shen Chi’s eyes, her straightforwardness and heartiness impressed him much more than her sincerity.
In this respect, even Han Shouxin couldn’t compare to her.
Lin Xiaoguai’s attention, however, was on Xu Ji. She was worried that Shen Chi’s unfiltered words would hurt the child, yet she discovered that Xu Ji was calmer than anyone else.
