CHAPTER 66: CHAPTER 65 OPEN-HEARTED NIGHT TALK

Cheng City is very quiet at around four in the morning.

Occasional dog barks, one or two drunken men mumbling drunken words, this does not affect the two walking under this smoky blue sky.

"You can speak Lancy Language, and you’re so familiar with Cheng City, I think you must have experienced a lot before. I think you should be a person with a rich experience, not as rigid as you are now. My dad is just worrying too much, in such a safe environment domestically, you don’t need to follow me twenty-four hours a day, and you don’t even go to see your sister, there’s no need to be so demanding on yourself. If I could feel danger, I wouldn’t refuse your protection, just like now, on the streets of a foreign land at night, I would definitely call for you." Wei Xueqing sighed.

Yang Chen frowned and said: "No, you’re wrong, there is no place that is safe, if someone targets you in any way, then you are in danger. I think you must have heard this saying: A capitalist will take risks for a profit of fifty percent; for a profit of one hundred percent, they would trample all human laws; for a profit of three hundred percent, they would dare to risk the gallows! If someone is willing to offer three hundred percent profit and money, do you think in such temptation, would someone take the risk?"

"That’s not realistic domestically, right!" Wei Xueqing said helplessly.

"No! Sometimes commercial wars are fought at all costs, I took your father’s money, used your father’s money to save my sister, I must repay this kindness, so I must protect you well. But if others also took money that could ensure their children a lifetime of wealth and security, would they also take risks? Remember, when someone is at a dead end, they will choose a path of no return! Your father is a wise person, although he might not have the advanced thoughts you learned in the Northern Federation, he definitely has richer life experience than you. The reason he asked me to protect you must have his reason, so you also need to stay vigilant and protect your own safety!" Yang Chen said seriously.

"Alright! I can’t argue with you on this issue, nor do I want to argue too much, do whatever you want." Wei Xueqing said helplessly, spreading her hands.

Yang Chen shook his head slightly, knowing that he hadn’t convinced Wei Xueqing.

As they walked on, they came to an alley, painted on the wall was the image of a little girl, particularly cute.

It turns out there was a kindergarten ahead, painted full of sunflowers and cute little animals.

Wei Xueqing stopped suddenly and said to Yang Chen, "Actually, I quite envy the relationship you have with Yanyan. Xinxin told me about your relationship, to be honest, I admire that you are willing to take responsibility for a sister who is not related by blood."

"Perhaps it relates to one’s experiences, because I have been emotionally invested since I was young, so I pay special attention to emotions. Therefore, sometimes emotions have also become my weakness. My instructor once told me that once on the battlefield, a person is a machine, a smart machine, emotions cannot exist, otherwise, you will die. After that battle, I understood what the instructor meant, if you have emotions on the battlefield, you will really die quickly. But I did not become indifferent, instead, I paid more attention to emotions, cherishing the people around me, letting emotions become my strength rather than my weakness."

It was precisely because of this that he built an indestructible Asura Hall.

What is the most indestructible thing?

It is emotion!

If being too emotional is a fatal weakness, then Yang Chen has already turned this weakness into his strength.

Wei Xueqing found it unbelievable and shook her head, "You people are really foolish beyond belief."

Thinking of the time when a group of rash youths even wanted to oppose the instructor, Yang Chen couldn’t help but smile, indeed, foolish beyond belief at that time.

"Actually, maybe emotions are indeed a human’s weakness!" Wei Xueqing looked at the graffiti on the kindergarten wall and suddenly became sad, "Actually, I am not much different from you, my mother passed away when I was very young, I remember I was about eight years old then, just old enough to remember things. Since my mother passed away, my personality dramatically changed, I became unsociable, withdrawn. My dad got me a lot of psychological counseling experts, but they didn’t work. He was also busy at that time, focusing only on making money, so I started boarding at a private school. The kids in private school are different from ordinary kids, they have incredible means, somehow they found out that my mother died of cancer, and started saying I had an infectious disease, and began to distance themselves from me. I simply stopped going to school, just stayed at home."

Yang Chen listened quietly.

"When I was thirteen, my dad brought home a beautiful woman, said he was going to marry her, I poured gasoline on that woman while they slept at night, threatening to burn her to death! Both her and my dad were terrified by me, my dad even beat me. At that time I stood on the gasoline with a photo of my mom in my arms, told him: if you dare to marry her I’ll burn myself and join my mom! My dad was terrified, as soon as dawn broke he sent that woman away. To be honest, I quite hated my dad, thought it was he who killed her. Afterward, he sent me to study in the Northern Federation. Later I found out he never contacted that woman again, never dated anyone again, I felt I owed him a lot, delayed him for so long."

After Wei Xueqing finished speaking, Yang Chen also fell into silence.

Wei Xueqing wiped her tears from the corner of her eye and broke into a smile, "I don’t know why, today I suddenly said so much."

Yang Chen said softly: "Every emotion has its belonging, I think your father’s emotional belonging is you, you are his daughter, more cherished than anything else, the bond between you is thicker than water, cannot be measured by anything. He would do anything for you, this is the greatness of a father. The reason you said so much is because you are under a lot of pressure. I think it’s unnecessary because I think with your ability, negotiating this project won’t be a problem."

Wei Xueqing smiled, continued walking forward, "You hit the nail on the head, I am indeed under a lot of pressure. Even after I came back, everyone said things are good, seeing the improvement of the group. But I see the problems existing in the group. Securing the cooperation with Cui’er is crucial for the group, failure is not an option!"

Yang Chen laughed and said, "All you have to do is believe in yourself."

Wei Xueqing laughed, feeling that Yang Chen suddenly became articulate.

"Do you know? Actually, the reason I care so much about the Cui’er project, and focus on the development of the brand industry is a bit selfish." Wei Xueqing pointed to the mouth-shaped building ahead and said, "I had thought very early on about opening a fashion design company in La Defense, specializing in making clothes for those superstars."

These words reminded Yang Chen of someone, many stars would come to her studio in La Defense for personalized red-carpet designs.
