Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss-Chapter 787 - 761: This Matter
Chapter 787: Chapter 761: This Matter
“I really want to live up to my father’s expectations for me. I hope I can become an iron-blooded strong woman, like the ones he often talks about – no need for emotions, wholeheartedly devoted to a career. There’s always a price for a woman to stand tall, and I think I can do it. But I still can’t control the sadness in my heart… Did I disappoint my father?”
“Silly girl, who told you that a strong woman definitely won’t have a happy family?” Xiao Qian wiped away her tears.

“I analyzed it myself. Those strong women my father introduced me to are either divorced or single. How many men can accept their women making more money and being more capable than them? When you’re busy to a certain extent, there’s no time for love and family. Qian’er, you once told me that when a woman is strong to a certain extent, she doesn’t need a man.”
Yu Minglang almost bit off the bamboo stick, staring sharply at Xiao Qian. This troublemaker actually said such a thing that destroys one’s humanity?
Xiao Qian knew without looking back that Yu Minglang was upset again. She had to pretend not to notice and continue comforting Shuixian.
“I did say that -” Hey, can the angry gentleman behind me listen to the whole story before getting mad?!
...
“You see! You admit you said that!” Shuixian became more upset, as if she was facing a multiple-choice question between career and family.
“I did say it, but it’s relative, not absolute. When a woman is powerful to a certain extent, she does not necessarily need some men. Like Liu Mei’s ex-boyfriend, who isn’t capable but has a big temper, controlling and narrow-minded, treating women as accessories and childbearing tools. We don’t need such men, right? However, men like Xiao Qiang and your Daodao with all their virtues, who can tolerate and support us and help us build a family together, can still be accepted.”
Xiao Qian said the last sentence while looking at the man standing behind Shuixian, who was soaked and panting, staring at Shuixian who was being held by Xiao Qian.
He finally came.
Xiao Qian looked at the man behind Shuixian, smiling intriguingly.
He did pretty well – from receiving the phone call to arriving here in just a few minutes; had he forced a taxi driver hurry over?
Shuixian had her back to the stranger and hadn’t seen him. She continued to sob and spoke about her feelings.
“But I can’t give him anything. Dexi’s family is also well-off so how could he possibly fancy my money? I can only suppress his development… I wish I could be born into an ordinary family. If only I could be like you and Ming Lang, accompanying each other all the way. I also want to follow him like an ordinary girl, cooking soup and waiting for the person I love to come home. But what about my father? What about my father’s lifelong efforts? I can’t just ignore my father who doted on me for a lifetime, gave me life, and everything. I can’t be that selfish!”
“If you can’t follow me, then I’ll follow you. How can you be sure I don’t care about you, or that you can’t give me anything, without asking me directly?”
The sound made Shuixian shiver, her body stiffening. Was she having auditory hallucinations?
Could it be…, could it be –
“Oh my god, I’m so touched!” Liu Mei wiped away her tears, almost crying. This year’s tear-jerker drama—from the tragedy to the reversal—had moved her tremendously!
Fu Gui silently handed over tissue, thinking Xiao Qian’s analysis was accurate. Liu Mei was indeed a girl who appeared strong on the outside but had a soft heart on the inside. She wasn’t as strong as she seemed.
Shuixian was stiff for a long time, not daring to turn around. She was afraid that if she did, everything would disappear and become an illusion.
Xiao Qian encouraged her.
“Face what you’re supposed to face. Career and family have never been single-choice questions. You only see the unhappy marriages of those strong women introduced by your godfather and think that a woman with a strong career will lose her lover. I won’t deny that the probability of broken marriages among strong women is indeed higher than in general households because of how society has developed from patriarchy. Some men have strong self-esteem and are unwilling to accept that their wives are successful women; some men compromise for money. However, there is also an extremely small number of men who don’t care about money or any of that – they stay together because of pure feelings.”
Xiao Qian glanced at Yu Minglang, and they exchanged a warm look. She knew Xiao Qiang was just such a man.
“Such men are rare indeed. They have to be strong, able to tolerate and understand their wives. They have to have unyielding confidence and not measure feelings by money. Turn around, and there’s such a man standing right behind you. I think you should talk to him personally.”
Xiao Qian pushed Shuixian over, and Daodao immediately hugged her.
It’s been a while; he seemed to have lost weight, and something seemed different… Shuixian suddenly noticed that he was wearing casual clothes?
She hadn’t seen him dress so casually in the years they’d known each other. He was always in a business attire, suits, and leather shoes.
“One, take your people and leave right now. We’ll settle our accounts later!” Zhu Dexi warned without looking back.
Yu Minglang immediately grabbed two bottles of beer, even taking the skewers from the stove. “Let’s go, let’s all retreat.”
“I still want to watch…” Liu Mei unwillingly let Fu Gui drag her away.
It’s such a rare scene of deep love and misty rain, but she couldn’t see it. What a pity!
“If you want to watch, I can make a confession to you when we go back. Just don’t stay here; I can’t fight these people who have practiced martial arts.” Fu Gui objectively said.
According to the observation of a forensic psychiatrist, Zhu Dexi was in an agitated state at the moment. When it comes to men and women, it’s easy to get affectionate after confessing; if it’s between two men, it’s likely to end in a beating.
“Then I’ll go find my brother and sister-in-law~” Liu Mei went stubbornly towards Xiao Qian’s direction.
Fu Gui pulled her back again, “Don’t bother them either. You, of all people, should know your brother’s shady side, right?”
Everyone could see what Yu Minglang was up to, grabbing beers and taking Xiao Qian towards the seaside rocks. Whoever didn’t get the hint would get beaten as the third-wheel light bulb!
“Ah, so what do we do?” Liu Mei turned back step by step, wondering what Shuixian and Daodao would say.
She also wondered what her sister-in-law and brother were doing behind the rocks?
“Let’s go home.”
“Oh…” Liu Mei was disappointed; she had to go home just like that.
The car was parked by the side of the road; the two got into Fu Gui’s old manual car.
“I’ll change cars when I get back. Next time it won’t be such a bumpy ride for you.” Fu Gui had been driving this old car for several years and hadn’t felt the need to change it until he met her.
“No need, it’s still working. You just bought a house and spent a lot of money, right?” Liu Mei wasn’t a picky girl either.
He suddenly got up, leaned in towards her, and Liu Mei tensed up. She suddenly thought of the kiss during the game of Truth or Dare. Would there be a second one tonight?
