She always plays cards out of the ordinary

Chapter 323 You Are My Human Fireworks 88

"Oh? Tell me specifically."

I used to be very interested in insects and always wanted to be an entomologist when I grew up, so I collected some insect specimens and books on the subject.

But after my mother read my diary and learned that I had such thoughts, she stopped me immediately.

She told me that my mission is to take over the Guokun Group from my father after I grow up and protect the family business.

That was the first time I realized so clearly that I was far away from my dream. "

Ye Zi pursed her lips, hesitating whether to let Meng Yanchen bring up the sad things in the past again, but thinking that since he took the initiative to talk about it, she just needed to listen carefully and guide him if necessary.

"And then? Did you express your opinion to Aunt Fu?"

"Have."

Meng Yanchen said this in a decisive tone, with admiration for his past self on his face.

"I was actually very brave at that time, but bravery cannot make dreams come true. My mother felt that I actually disobeyed her and refuted her decision because of this matter, and she was very angry.

My mother didn't come downstairs to eat that night, and my father looked at me with a blaming look for the first time. Although he didn't say anything, I felt extremely guilty.

That night, only Qinqin managed to eat something, and my parents and I were all hungry until the next morning. At breakfast the next day, my mother had calmed down and talked to me as usual. I thought the incident was over.

It was not until I came home from school that I discovered that my specimens and books were missing. Later I learned that my mother had thrown away all my specimens, put away my books, and stopped my pocket money.

Although I still have some money that I haven’t spent in the past, I never buy those things again, because I know that even if I buy them home, there is no place to put them. "

This was the first time Ye Zi heard Meng Yanchen talk about his childhood in such detail, and it was also the first time she witnessed his helplessness in growing up.

She couldn't say Fu Wenying was wrong, nor could she say Meng Yanchen was wrong.

The Meng family's business does need someone to inherit it, and the Guokun Group has not always been stable.

From a small company to a large group, one can imagine the effort Meng Huaijin and Fu Wenying put in, not to mention that it also faced internal and external troubles.

For Fu Wenying, controlling the Guokun Group can bring a good life to her family.

For Meng Yanchen, Guokun is also a guarantee for his parents.

Thinking of this, Ye Zi suddenly asked a question.

"Meng Meng, tell me, do you reject your current job?"

Meng Yanchen looked at the two children running freely on the street ahead. The two were eating snacks and walking on the sidewalk, talking and laughing.

He turned around, looked at Ye Zi, and said seriously: "I don't reject it, because I know that if I want to have real autonomy, then I must have corresponding rights. This is what that incident taught me.

That’s why when we first got together, I was so eager to join Guokun Group. I didn’t want the past to happen again. It’s enough to have experienced that feeling of powerlessness once.”

Meng Yanchen's answer was exactly what Ye Zi had expected. Seeing Meng Yanchen's sad expression as he was lost in memories, she comforted him.

“You know there’s a saying that when a hobby becomes a job, the love for it will disappear.”

Meng Yanchen smiled, stretched out his hand and scratched Ye Zi's nose lovingly.

"Where did you hear this nonsense?"

Ye Zi wrinkled her nose and said, "This is not a fallacy, it is the truth that many people have personally experienced, okay?

Just search online and you will find that if you do something you like every day, you will face various external and internal pressures. Even if you start out of interest, you will feel tired and bored later.

So the best way is to keep work as work and hobbies as hobbies, and the two should not be mixed together."

Ye Zi said this, thought for a moment, and then continued.

"Meng Yanchen, I can't persuade you to be like Xu Qin and give up everything to pursue so-called freedom and dreams.

I am even glad that you are not opposed to your current job. After all, everyone has his own mission and responsibilities that he cannot avoid.

Just like you have your parents and Guokun Group behind you, I also have my sister and my grandmother behind me.

The only thing I can do is to accompany you to study your favorite insects and continue to develop your hobbies when we are on break;

And you accompanied me to travel all over the beautiful rivers and mountains of our motherland, appreciating the beauty of nature.

Let's just accompany each other like this, and we won't owe each other anything, okay?"

Meng Yanchen looked at Ye Zi's sparkling eyes and couldn't say no to these eyes that were filled with his own shadow.

Ye Zi was right. After all, he was not Xu Qin. He couldn't ignore his parents, no matter how twisted he felt.

He always just wastes time on himself and never thinks of hurting anyone around him.

"Thank you, Ye Zi. I am very satisfied with my current life. Although I am usually busy, every time I achieve success in business and complete small goals one after another.

I always feel a sense of satisfaction in my heart. Maybe, just like you said, I should have both work and interests at the same time.

Just like I used to collect butterfly specimens, studying insects should be another hobby of mine.”

Ye Zi reached out and took Meng Yanchen's strong arm, giving her a suggestion.

"Think about it, you now have enough money and energy to not only conduct research on your own, but you can even make related investments.

There are so many people in this world who study insects. If you invest in them, you can also see different things. "

The two of them returned to Ye Zi's home leisurely. At this time, only Grandma and Ye Xin were at home, while Fu Wenying and Meng Huaijin were still resting in the hotel.

When Grandma Ye saw the two people coming in, she waved to them to come over.

She also patted the sofa beside her, motioning Meng Yanchen to sit next to her, and finally spoke as if to chat.

“Yanchen, from the first time I saw you on Ye Zi’s phone, I guessed your relationship, so I just asked casually.

When Ye Zi said you were her friend, I didn't believe it. But I didn't ask any further questions.

I know that my granddaughter has been sensible since she was young. She must have her reasons for not wanting to speak.

I didn't expect that the next time you met, it would be the time for Ye Zi to declare your relationship."

Meng Yanchen lowered his head and apologized for his impoliteness.

"Grandma, I'm sorry. I should have told you when we first met. As for Ye Zi lying to you, it was my fault. I didn't give Ye Zi enough sense of security at the time, which made her worry about our future."

Grandma Ye shook her head and looked at the two children in front of her lovingly.
