"How did you come up with this idea?" Jiang Yizhou was somewhat taken aback; how could Song Rushi suddenly think of this?
Song Rushi circled around on his chest, explaining with a hint of melancholy, "I don't want to keep being your nanny or housekeeper. I've already decided to go back to the country with Fei Yan. As for what we'll do, I still need to discuss it with her."
"You've already made up your mind?" Facing her choice, Jiang Yizhou could only respect it. He felt he would never act out of lust again, leading to such an awkward situation.
Everyone is changed by society while also changing it. The most obvious example is monogamy; men may fantasize about having multiple wives, and women may dream of being pursued by many men. However, reality's morals and laws constrain everyone. Even if one can escape these constraints, one should not actively violate them.
Jiang Yizhou had thought that if it weren't for that moment of confusion, he might have been interested in other women. But since he already had a responsibility and a girlfriend's affection, he gradually lost interest and became accustomed to Ding Zhengnan's presence, leading to marriage and children.
However, now that he found himself in this situation, Jiang Yizhou could only move forward. Isn't life like this?
Often there is no turning back; every path taken leaves a mark in the river of time, and every footprint contributes to a person's life as seen through others' eyes at every moment.
"I've decided; you bad guy, you don't plan to keep me tied down forever, do you?"
"How could that be? Do you need me to make an investment for you?" Jiang Yizhou denied without missing a beat. Since he had chosen this path, let him be fickle! As long as he didn't let anyone down, if he had to live again and was destined to give up what he had, then it would all be in vain.
...
Seeing the spirited Song Rushi, Shen Qing helped her pack her belongings. "Sister Ru Shi, are you leaving too? And you're just going like this; don't you worry..."
Shen Qing pointed meaningfully toward Jiang Yizhou's office, the implication was quite clear.
"What are you worrying about? I've already discussed it with him; it's not what you think," Song Rushi didn't mind Shen Qing's inquiry at all. "I just want to try starting my own business!"
Seeing that she wasn't worried at all made Shen Qing realize she might have been overthinking things. "Then I wish you success! Working under that hands-off manager is indeed too exhausting; there's no way to do anything else! Hey, Sister Ru Shi, if your business gets on track, how about I come work for you?"
Song Rushi smiled slightly before putting on a serious face. "You should focus on doing your job well here first! By the way, here's a tip: the more familiar you are with Yi Zhou and the better your personal relationship is, the more he will trust you and assign you more work. So it's best to keep things professional!"
Song Rushi understood Jiang Yizhou's personality well; he easily became close to those around him, and it seemed his understanding of interpersonal relationships was based on distance.
Just like with Ding Zhengnan, if Jiang Yizhou wasn't being urged or didn't have a purpose, he wouldn't normally call Ding Zhengnan, who was far away in the capital; it was always the girl who took the initiative to call.
Shen Qing, who didn't quite understand Song Rushi's meaning, blinked a few times and nodded vigorously, "Hmm, I get it. Indeed, Boss is quite casual and too laid-back about work, but he's Boss, so I can't say much! Since you, Sister Ru Shi, feel this way, I'll follow your lead. If I can't handle it, I'll just call you, hehe!"
"Then I'm off; Yi Zhou is still waiting for me downstairs! Goodbye!" Song Rushi declined Shen Qing's offer to see her off and walked out of the company holding a cardboard box.
At this point, it had only been a short time since she had the idea of returning home to start her own business—specifically, since July 9th—so there was hardly any hesitation as she quickly completed her resignation procedures.
She wanted to stay but also wanted to carve out her own career.
So decisive action was necessary; otherwise, if she delayed any longer, she might really end up staying.
Jiang Yizhou had no plans to return home. With Li Yue looking after things, everything would likely go smoothly; returning himself might not make much difference.
"Isn't it a bit too rushed to leave?" Jiang Yizhou said as he watched the woman approach and get into the car. Although he knew the outcome was already decided, he couldn't help but advise her.
Song Rushi seemed to break free from constraints, radiating confidence. "This time I'm really determined to build my own career and prove myself. Keep your dark thoughts to yourself!"
The dark thoughts naturally referred to keeping her bound to him like a canary.
"Alright, alright, Ms. Song, I'm looking forward to your performance!" Jiang Yizhou pretended to flatter her before starting the car and heading to the airport. Meanwhile, Song Rushi rummaged through the cardboard box for items she wanted to take with her and stuffed them into her suitcase, leaving the rest for Jiang Yizhou to take back to his place.
This seemed normal; after experiencing a series of events triggered by his own impulsiveness, Jiang Yizhou began to confront his swelling desires within.
Did he want a harem?
Without a doubt, yes!
However, reality is often cruel and disheartening, forcing the women who love you to humiliate their own dignity, which Jiang Yizhou cannot bear.
The premise of the game Flower Bed is that everyone involved are scoundrels and libertines; no matter how they are arranged or combined, it is merely physical contact.
But for ordinary people, sex and love are inseparable; sex is a ritual of love. If even sex cannot prove love, then something even rarer is needed for proof.
Song Rushi's awakening splashed cold water on him, waking him from the delusion in his heart. He was merely a scoundrel disguising himself under the pretense of love, using the so-called excuse of being open and honest to humiliate women's dignity.
Whether a woman is a virgin or not is unimportant because she has the right to fall in love, to interact normally with others, to date, and to have sex.
He was simply a bit unlucky, not the first person to meet her, who wanted to and could accompany her all the way.
Of course, those women who willingly degrade themselves while shouting phrases like "It's just a membrane! It's just..." are not included in this discussion.
Perhaps in a past life, he never truly learned to respect women or lovers because he had never been in love. Now, Jiang Yizhou looks at Song Rushi, who has become radiant and exudes a different charm since making her decision, and suddenly understands something.
This might be a lesson he has learned himself: when he returns to the capital next time, he should take the initiative to do what needs to be done!
