Chapter 148 Your Ideal Partner Standards
Zhou Yi echoed her tone and said, "But I don't think Sis would be interested in a man who depends on a woman for support. With your qualities, you could have any kind of man you desire."
Kong Huaijin raised an eyebrow and turned her head to glance at him. "And how do you know I don't already have a boyfriend?"
"Most accomplished and successful women tend to remain single."
"Hmm, and do you happen to know why that is?" she asked.
Zhou Yi feigned ignorance and shook his head. "No idea."
When interacting with strong-willed women, it's important to leave space for them to take the lead in the conversation. Occasionally showing a touch of vulnerability in front of them isn't a bad thing—it's crucial to ensure they find enjoyment in the interaction. Zhou Yi's question was carefully designed to prompt Kong Huaijin to share her views on relationships.
"My mother once told me something," Kong Huaijin began. "She said that women must endure loneliness. If there isn't a high-quality man by your side, never lower your standards to settle for someone beneath you—not even for casual intimacy. Because women are deeply emotional beings, and sooner or later, they'll grow too attached."
Kong Huaijin was undeniably proud. She wanted men to understand that not just anyone could pursue her. Even the opportunity to do so required holding a metaphorical "ticket of love."
Indeed, as Su Ning's brother had mentioned, Kong Huaijin exuded an air of unattainability.
