Chapter 447 Instinctive Reactions, Why Do We Need to Learn Them?
"Unfortunately, this boy had a recessive genetic disease in his family, a mental illness. It wasn't discovered at first, and by the time it was found out, it was too late. He jumped from the rooftop of a building, and that was it..."
"Qingjia was depressed for more than half a year but still couldn't let go of this relationship. Later, she went abroad to change her environment and mood."
“She returned to China a few years ago, but she hasn’t had a boyfriend since then, almost ten years now.”
At this point, the old lady's eyes began to redden, and tears welled up in her eyes.
"You Wen family members are all sentimental fools. You either don't like someone, or once you fall in love, you can't forget them for the rest of your life. You'll stick around like a leech!" Old Madam Wen said, giving Old Master Wen a sidelong glance.
Back then, this old man went to great lengths to pursue her, overcoming many obstacles along the way, but he never gave up.
At the time, she thought it was a good thing. Who wouldn't want their man to be truly devoted to them and for the two of them to support each other for a lifetime?
But after having a child, seeing that the child was just as stubborn as her father, and that she would still remember the person she had chosen even if he died, the old lady suddenly felt that this might not be a good thing.
The more she thought about it, the sadder she became. Was her daughter, who was only in her early thirties, destined to live a lonely life?
Seeing that the old lady was sad, Ning Yao quickly put down her chopsticks and placed her hand on the back of the old lady's hand, gently comforting her.
"It's all in the past now, I believe she will get better gradually."
Although almost ten years have passed, Wen Qingjia still can't let go, but these things are unpredictable.
Some people hold onto things for decades, but then one day, a very small thing happens, and suddenly everything becomes clear.
"I hope so." Old Madam Wen smiled at Ning Yao, but her smile was tinged with sadness.
When Ning Yao picked up her chopsticks again, she wondered if Wen Qingjia was crying today because she remembered something from the past.
The meal was quickly finished, and Ning Yao and Wen Tingye took the child back upstairs, while the old lady and old man remained in the living room.
Watching the two young people's retreating figures, Madam Wen felt very gratified.
She only hoped that her son's love life would be fulfilling, and that it wouldn't end up like Wen Qingjia's.
Wen Baoying and Wen Aixiu refused to let Ning Yao go back to her room. One of them grabbed the left side of her clothes and said that they wanted to go to the room to play a dress-up game.
The other one pulled Ning Yao, saying they wanted to go to the room to play mobile games together.
"Go back to your rooms, stop arguing here. Your mommy is mine." Wen Tingye was wearing a light gray loungewear set, which looked comfortable and loose, with a soft, skin-friendly fabric.
Wen Tingye leaned lazily against the wall, his tone almost authoritative, using his status as an elder to pressure the child.
Ning Yao glanced at Wen Tingye, her cherry-red lips slightly pursed, revealing a hint of disdain.
Bullying the weak is shameless!
"Daddy, you can't be a dictator. Mommy has to decide who she wants to be with." Wen Aixiu, relying on Ning Yao's support, became much bolder.
As he spoke, Wen Aixiu took Ning Yao's hand, his little fingers loosely clenching it without much force.
In the past, Wen Aixiu and Wen Baoying were afraid that their daddy and mommy wouldn't be able to be together, so they often created opportunities for them to be together.
Now that the two of them have fallen in love, there will definitely be no changes in the future. Mommy will always be their mommy, and there will be no stepmother.
Thinking of this, Wen Aixiu felt even more justified. They were Mommy's babies, and it was only right that they be close to Mommy.
Ning Yao felt her son's dependence on her, and smiled as she held his hand back, her palm warm.
"Your mommy isn't married to me yet. If you don't give your mommy and me some time, she might fall for another man. Then there'll be nothing I can do but find you a stepmother, and everyone can live their own lives."
The man leaning against the wall started spouting nonsense, a wicked smile playing on his lips.
Ning Yao was certainly not going to be fooled, and besides, she wasn't afraid that Wen Tingye would fall for someone else...
Didn't the old lady say that's just how the Wen family is? They're all romantics!
Ning Yao didn't believe it, but after the two children heard Wen Tingye's words, they were all upset, their little faces turning pale.
"Mommy, I still need to study. You should go keep Daddy company." Wen Aixiu withdrew from the competition and went back to her room without looking back. Her little legs kicked so fast that she ran away.
"Mommy, I'm calling Wanwan now. You should play with Daddy. See you tomorrow." Wen Baoying turned and left.
Compared to spending a day or two together, what they wanted more was for Ning Yao to stay by their side forever, as their father, wife, and mother.
"You mean if I don't have time to spend with you, you're going to find a stepmother for the child?" Ning Yao glanced at Wen Tingye with a forced smile, her voice icy cold.
"It's a stopgap measure. If we don't say it this way, do you think the children will willingly give you to me?"
"This method is already the gentlest one. If you don't like it, I can use other methods."
Wen Tingye showed no remorse for threatening the child. He stepped forward, took Ning Yao's hand, placed it in his palm, and casually played with it.
"What method?" Ning Yao became genuinely curious, wondering what other tricks this cunning businessman Wen Tingye had up his sleeve.
Wen Tingye looked at the young woman in front of him, his thin lips slightly parted, and he casually uttered three words.
"Send him abroad."
"You dare?" Ning Yao spat out the two words through gritted teeth in a fit of anger.
She finally returned to China and reunited with her children. Wen Tingye, just try sending the children away!
"Then please manage your time reasonably and don't favor one over the other." When Wen Tingye said the word "favor the other," he lazily pointed to himself.
"Have I seen you few times? When have I ever treated you poorly?"
"Whether it was mistreatment or not, you know in your heart."
Wen Tingye glanced at Ning Yao, his gaze indifferent.
Ning Yao was instantly speechless when the man uttered those resentful words.
She thought about it carefully, and indeed, she rarely wanted to see Wen Tingye on her own initiative; most of the time…
It should be said that almost every time the two met, it was Wen Tingye who shamelessly came to her, while she rarely took the initiative.
“I don’t have much experience in dating, I only have theoretical knowledge from books. There will definitely be deviations in practice. You can tell me your thoughts directly, such as what you want me to do.” Wen Tingye said as he led Ning Yao into the room. The two held hands tightly, their fingers not even separated.
Wen Tingye recalled that he had indeed read some books on relationships for a while, but he didn't follow them exactly; he just got a general understanding.
Later, I followed my body's instincts, being kind to Ning Yao, feeling a strong urge towards her, and wanting to understand her...
I thought that meeting up would give us time to have a heart-to-heart talk, to share our life experiences, or other things.
But whenever he saw Ning Yao, Wen Tingye would forget all about his plans to have a heart-to-heart talk.
The two kissed for even longer than they talked.
"Pfft..." Ning Yao couldn't help but laugh when she heard Wen Tingye say that reading books could teach her about love.
Is it true? In this day and age, there are still people who need to learn about dating from books?
Isn't falling in love a basic human instinct?
When you meet someone you like and spend time with them, you'll naturally learn everything over time; there's no need to learn anything new.
