Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss - Chapter 410

Chapter 410: Chapter 384 Adjusting for Him (Thanks to Shui Yuqing for the He’s Jade Bi+Update)

Xiao Qian took the opportunity to enlighten Jia Xiufang. Even though Jia Xiufang now had no worries about money, her personality was inborn and she didn’t have much power. Xiao Qian felt that her mother was perfectly good as she was, there was no need to be overly rich; maintaining an average to slightly-high level small business owner was enough. Any more progress and Jia Xiufang’s IQ and EQ wouldn’t be able to handle it. Xiao Qian also hoped that her mother wouldn’t have to strain herself.

“Xiao Mei is right. We know faces, not hearts. Every person sees the world differently. What we deem as natural is not the case for others. For a woman like Chu Xue who never regrets her actions, we should only ensure that she doesn’t get what she wants. Do not expect her to apoIogize or feel guilty,” said Yu Minglang, adding to the conversation and glancing appreciatively at Xiao Qian, admiring his adorable future daughter-in-law who was always at the ready to lecture her mother. He secretly wished he could have a few sweethearts like her.

“Mom, have you frequently seen mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quarrels?”

“Indeed, our neighbor’s…” Jia Xiufang became very animated as she explained, well-aware of all the commotion concerning household disputes in their neighborhood.

“Stop right there, I don’t want to hear all this neighborhood gossip. I’m analyzing this situation from an expert’s perspective. It’s similar to Chu Xue’s situation. Just like when a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are quarreling, both believe they’re right and accuse the other. In reality, they’re just demanding too much from one another. Think of them as strangers, protect your own interests and don’t let them take advantage, whatever they want to do, let them. Wouldn’t that be less painful? Do you understand?”

Upon hearing this, Jia Xiufang nodded, understanding the concept. “So let Chu Xue do as she pleases. Whether or not she repents has nothing to do with us, as long as we’re not at a disadvantage, that’s what matters, right?”

Xiao Qian nodded. “Well done mom, you’ve got it. Just follow this principle and live your life. The world is wide; just be carefree!”

Don’t take everything too seriously, it’s exhausting to allow irrelevant people to occupy too much of your thoughts. Only those who matter should enter your small world, as long as these few people can’t hurt your feelings, protect your interests regardless of whether they know they’ve wronged you.

Xiao Qian glanced at Yu Minglang and their gazes met again with sparks flying.

Obviously, Yu Minglang is one of the few people that Xiao Qian allows into her heart.

Unable to endure any longer, Chen Zilong bowed his head, feeling that his sister and Brother Lang were taking the mood in a strange direction, constantly glancing at each other and occasionally laughing foolishly. The world of relationships truly was frightening.

“I’ve understood everything,” nodded Jia Xiufang.

Xiao Qian and Yu Minglang didn’t care whether she understood or not. They were too immersed in their own joy, taking every opportunity to show off their love for each other.

Jia Xiufang continued to express her understanding, “I’ve truly got it. I shouldn’t care about what others think.”

“Uh huh,” Yu Minglang agreed half-heartedly. He was too engrossed in admiring Xiao Mei, finding her too endearing. He also wanted to give her a clandestine kiss.

Jia Xiufang, who was back to them, didn’t notice Yu Minglang leaning towards Xiao Qian’s face. Suddenly, Jia Xiufang exclaimed excitedly, “I no longer care about what others think. Chu Xue has done so many wrongs, she deserves karma!”

Thud. Xiao Qian’s head hit the coffee table. She was left speechless by her mother. This dispute was something nine bulls couldn’t drag away.

Yu Minglang also felt awkward, seeing that Xiao Qian was lying down, and he was left empty-handed, almost bumping into the wall.

“Qian’er, what are you two up to?”

Jia Xiufang turned around just in time to see the hilarious scene unfolding between her daughter and future son-in-law.

Xiao Qian’s head was lying on the coffee table, her hand hitting the table in annoyance, while Yu Minglang maintained his lunging pose, his mouth almost touching the wall.

“It’s nothing, we’re practicing couple’s yoga, exercising, and improving overall fitness,” said Yu Minglang calmly.

Chen Zilong silently turned his head away, covering his face with his notebook.

“I didn’t see anything, I’m doing my homework…”

He was a self-exile, always bringing up homework to dodge the responsibility. Homework also takes a lot of effort!

Finally, Yu Minglang didn’t get his hotly-anticipated treat, the “gift” that Xiao Qian had been planning to give, remained where it should be.

As Xiao Qian told Jia Xiufang, the world won’t change because of your thoughts. Despite Xiao Qian’s intention to give, and Yu Minglang’s intention to receive, things didn’t happen the way they had wanted.

Such is life, it never spares anyone from torment. As soon as Xiao Qian’s aunt had left, it was time for the new semester to start.

The two had been holding their breaths, hoping that her aunt would show mercy and leave early, giving them a chance. However, it turned out her menstrual cycle worked like clockwork and tormented Xiao Qian till she started school. Yu Minglang with a grudge, reluctantly sent his cherished darling back to school and they both carried on with their respective lives.

The new term brought a new outlook. The three girls and one boy, who was a woman at heart, in Dormitory 4444 had all experienced some changes.

Xiao Qian came back radiant. Even though her vacation had been a rollercoaster of ups and downs, she almost didn’t make it back from a trip to the countryside, but due to spending the whole time with Yu Minglang, she was glowing with the nourishment of love. She now wore a petite diamond ring that he put on her, and had a renewed plan for the future.

As too many things had happened during this vacation, her feelings for Minglang had escalated significantly. Xiao Qian decided to reconsider her plans and could no longer follow the previous schedule.

Originally, her plan was to work on her studies at a steady pace and enjoy her peaceful university years. But after getting engaged to Yu Minglang and seeing how he continuously sacrificed his ambitious career plans, shortening them from 9 years to 6 just to be with her, Xiao Qian was touched.

If Yu Minglang could adjust his plans for her, why couldn’t she do the same for him?

Xiao Qian was determined to earn a Ph.D. in her lifetime. This goal, set by herself, would require a substantial educational background to achieve excellence in the industry.

She was just a freshman now. If she were to continue her studies through undergraduate to doctorate, it would take at least 9 years. That was too long.

As soon as she returned, Xiao Qian applied to the school for an early completion of her credit hours and to shorten her study period. This sent shockwaves throughout the school.

Although the school followed a credit system and theoretically allowed early graduation upon completion of the required credit hours, almost no one did so. Most saw the option for early completion of credit hours as a myth, unrealistic for a majority of students.
