Wu Rong never expected that the last straw for Rao Jie would be Bao Ming. However, perhaps it was for the best; holding everything in would eventually lead to real problems.
Without waiting for Wu Rong's response, Rao Jie stood up in a panic, wanting to return to her room. But Wu Rong suddenly grabbed her hand. There had been many things he wanted to say to Rao Jie before, but she had unilaterally refused to communicate. This time, he didn’t want her to get away with it.
"Rao Jie, you feel wronged, don’t you? You think it’s unfair, right? You believe others are the reason for your misfortune. You feel angry but have nowhere to vent your frustration, and you have grievances that can’t be expressed. But all of this has its reasons; it follows a logic. It didn’t just appear out of nowhere to make things difficult for you. Even if you care deeply about it, it won’t change anything. Do you understand? If you're really feeling this upset, then let it out! Don’t hold it in!"
Rao Jie couldn’t move as she was pulled along and could only turn back to look at Wu Rong. Her voice was hoarse as she said, "I understand the reasoning, but I just feel bad inside. It’s okay; I’ll be fine after some time. Thank you, Professor Wu, but you don’t need to worry about me like this. I will prepare well for the graduate entrance exam and won’t let it affect me."
Originally, she just wanted to study hard for the exam and secure a good future. She didn’t want her family to look down on her; she wanted to be ten times more outstanding than her older brother so that her parents would regard her more highly.
For someone like her, who had no particular talents, the path to excellence was simply taking the graduate entrance exam. If she couldn’t even get into graduate school, how could she claim to be excellent?
Fine, she would quietly prepare for the exam when suddenly a new opportunity appeared before her: Graduate School Recommendation. She worked hard for it; it wasn’t that she had to take this path.
But now that she had embarked on this journey and resolved all her troubles, just as she was about to reach the end, reality hit her hard.
After great joy came great sorrow; she was just an ordinary person who couldn’t handle such ups and downs. So she desperately tried to avoid the emotions that were driving her crazy.
It seemed as if Rao Jie was self-hypnotizing or trying to find a reason to support herself, even if that reason sounded unreasonable. "As long as I can take the graduate entrance exam, it’s all the same in the end—graduate school is graduate school; there’s no difference... Right... As long as I prepare well."
To be honest, every time Rao Jie mentioned the graduate entrance exam, Wu Rong felt increasingly irritated. He was someone who understood his own life clearly. But Rao Jie was different; like some people, she lived in confusion and drifted along without knowing why she did what she did—she only knew that she had to do it.
Wu Rong admitted that he had fallen in love with Rao Jie, but that did not mean he was blind to her flaws. Because he loved her, he did not want her life to be filled with unhappiness or uncertainty.
Wu Rong felt that now was the right time to have a serious conversation about the future with Rao Jie. However, he might have overlooked the normal reaction time that a person needs. He thought he was educating and guiding her, but in reality, he was rushing her towards an endpoint without allowing her the space to process her feelings.
Looking at Rao Jie, his gaze turned somewhat stern, and his tone became unavoidably aggressive. "Rao Jie, what is it that you truly want to do? Is it pursuing further studies?"
