Chapter 1369: Chapter 989: Poison Doctor Unrivaled 50 (five thousand)_4
He spoke, and she could understand. In short, under the big brand of Shui Clan, her small brand would be launched. All the production line personnel belonged to Shui Clan. The advantage was that she could quickly establish herself, riding the east wind of Shui Clan. The disadvantage was that the couple’s business would be mixed together, preventing her from achieving complete independence, which went against her original intention. frёeωebɳovel.com
Although what he said was not without reason, Jiang Xue wanted a business that belonged exclusively to her, rather than relying on her husband’s family to give her a ready-made cake, where she only needed to sit back and enjoy the success.
Thinking this way, her body was more realistic than her mind and rejected Shui Yixuan’s proposal.
"I don’t seek to make my business very large, just strive for a good reputation. Slowly build it up, big or small, at least it’s obtained through my own ability. Even if I go there to introduce raw materials in the future, I will pay you money. Although we are engaged, I still think it’s better to clearly divide the property before and after marriage. I won’t take advantage of you, and you shouldn’t despise the small meat from my family. At least I’m not holding out my palm asking you for it. Even a small mosquito is meat that I exchanged my blood for. Am I right?"
"Your vision isn’t something ordinary women can achieve. Is it because you grew up alone without parents, too caught up in gains and losses, stemming from a lack of security?"
Jiang Xue shook her head, "I don’t know why I’m like this, maybe... Even though I have everything now, some feelings are brought out from my bones. Since we are engaged, I hope we can respect each other a bit in the future, what do you think?"
Shui Yixuan sighed lightly, "You’ve said it to such a degree, what else can I say? Alright, let it be. Who asked me to fancy your extraordinary nature? But when you need help, I hope you don’t bear it alone. Forget about your brother, he will have his own wife someday. I am your support, understand?"
Jiang Xue smiled brightly at him, he was dazzled by her smile, instinctively reaching out to touch her face, only for Jiang Xue to instinctively dodge, leaving both their faces tense with an awkward feeling.
"So not giving me face?" Truly a sly old fox, even at this moment, he could joke.
Jiang Xue felt a bit embarrassed, "Sorry, that’s my instinctive reaction. How about you try touching again? I’ll cooperate by staying still."
Saying this strongly wounded Shui Yixuan’s self-esteem, "Forget it, you think I’m blind, not seeing your resistance? Frankly speaking, you don’t even have deep feelings for me, maybe even none. You’re with me entirely because of the circumstances, right?"
Indeed, my favorable impression of you was solely based on the original story where you pampered the female lead. However, some things change too quickly, completely deviating from the outline’s direction. All she can do now is follow her true heart; emotions also need mutual support. If one side hasn’t entered the state, what’s the difference from forcing an unripe melon?
Jiang Xue’s very clear feeling now is not rejection, but she hasn’t reached the level of deep love either. In fact, she feels that after traversing so many worlds, she has achieved a heart like still water regarding emotions. What she seeks isn’t love, but a partner she can get through life with, preventing her second half of life from being too lonely.
