Chapter 62 The Right Choice
Chapter 62 The Right Choice
This time, Su Jie only waited for ten minutes before going to the bathroom to knock on the door.
"Knock knock knock—"
"Breakfast is available outside, and it's hot!"
The man's words made Ye Jingyao's face burn again. "I...I'm all better now!"
Su Jie pushed the door open. The girl was sitting on the toilet, her head down, not daring to look at him. "I'll carry you to breakfast."
Ye Jingyao nodded, "Mm!"
She naturally reached out her left hand, and the man lifted her up.
I'm used to this kind of movement. The man's muscles are very firm, which makes me feel at ease.
Upon entering the living room, Su Jie put the girl down and brought over the insulated food container. "I've already eaten, you can eat now."
"Brother Jie, I was wrong last night, I was too sensitive."
Ye Jingyao suddenly said, "I apologize to you, I'm sorry!"
I accept your apology.
Su Jie smiled and shook his head. "But you can only have a fresh start if you truly let go of your personality flaws."
"I know."
Ye Jingyao nodded, took out an iPhone 15 from her pocket, and said, "I'll take the phone and use it. I'll transfer two hundred yuan to you every month from now on!"
Su Jie didn't care, "You can use it."
While eating her steamed bun, Ye Jingyao mustered her courage and asked, "Brother Jie, would you like to hear my story?"
Su Jie shook his head. "I don't want to hear it."
Ye Jingyao paused for a moment, then swallowed back the words that were already on the tip of her tongue.
She was mentally prepared to proactively reveal her most vulnerable side to the man.
It crashed directly into an iron gate.
Then, with a "thud," his head was covered in bumps!
Everyone has their own misfortunes.
Su Jie said calmly, "Irresponsible parents, a tragic childhood—but those are your problems, your nightmares."
"But I'm doing very well now, I'm positive and optimistic, and I'm happy, so please don't let your negative emotions affect me."
Ye Jingyao was in low spirits and didn't say anything more, eating her food in small bites.
The steamed buns that were originally delicious have now become tasteless and bland.
Su Jie didn't care about any of that. The two of them had crossed paths because of Shen Ruoxuan, but that was all.
Perhaps Ye Jingyao had a miserable past, but what does that have to do with him?
He was studying hard at that time, did nothing, and did not wrong anyone!
Seeing that the woman wasn't in a good mood, Su Jie said directly, "I have something to do and need to go out later. You can rest at home by yourself."
Ye Jingyao asked cautiously, "Are you coming back at noon?"
"I will definitely come back."
Su Jie smiled and nodded, "Otherwise you won't have anything to eat."
Ye Jingyao forced a smile, "Thank you!"
She could sense the man's growing distance from her.
But she clearly didn't do anything!
She couldn't understand why this was happening when she had sincerely apologized.
Could it be because of yesterday?
Are men really that petty?
Su Jie was certainly not petty.
He simply chose to cut his losses in time.
The girl is currently feeling very vulnerable and wants to rely on him.
But the two are not related, so why should he rely on them?
Every woman is like that; she cries to him after suffering a little grievance and wants to rely on him. If that's the case, he might as well become a heartbreaker!
He didn't want to interfere too much in other people's lives and causes and effects; he just wanted to live his own life well.
Although Ye Jingyao was decent-looking, there was nothing about her that truly attracted him.
Shen Ruoxuan could at least provide him with a lot of emotional value.
However, he only felt strong negative emotions from Ye Jingyao, which made him feel quite unhappy.
What if I have too much contact with Ye Jingyao, or something happens?
The causes and effects involved are not worth expending too much energy on him.
They're not that close yet!
Driving his Maybach, Su Jie arrived at the bookstore again. This time, he planned to buy more books that would be useful to him, and then gradually enrich himself.
First is "Selected Works of Mao Zedong".
This book allows him to see the world from a macro perspective.
Then there are the Twenty-Four Histories.
Learn from others and history.
What is happening now has actually happened countless times throughout five thousand years of history and civilization.
Success and failure, right and wrong.
The ancients were wise; they made the right choices for future generations long ago.
If he encounters a similar situation in the future, he will be able to easily cope with it by drawing on the wisdom of the ancients.
In addition, there are various legal books and business management books, which he also needs to study.
Besides that, there are some foreign languages.
Such as English, French, Japanese, Korean, German, Spanish, Russian...
His starting point was too low; he was born in a rural area, graduated from an ordinary second-tier university, and only knew some simple English words.
He needs to open his eyes to the world, carefully analyze the international situation, and understand the changes in the world.
Instead of being narrow-minded and arrogant.
After a round of shopping, more than 30,000 yuan was spent, and more than 500 books were purchased, filling the entire cabin of the Maybach.
These are just the initial books he needs to learn. After he finishes learning all this knowledge, he can choose some books that he likes to learn and study based on his psychological changes at that time.
Back in the apartment complex, Su Jie wasn't foolish enough to carry the books upstairs himself; instead, he asked two security guards from the property management company for help.
Each person received a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes, and then they were given a 200 yuan red envelope.
A small cart carried everything upstairs in just two trips.
Seeing the man bring back so many books, Ye Jingyao, who was sitting on the sofa looking dejected, couldn't help but ask, "Brother Jie, why did you buy so many books?"
Learning has no end.
Su Jie said, "I must read and study every day to improve my knowledge and learn from the wisdom of those who came before me."
Ye Jingyao was somewhat puzzled, "You're so rich, why are you still working so hard?"
There's always someone stronger, and there's always someone better.
Su Jie shook his head and said, "I'm only impressive in your eyes. To others, I'm just an ordinary person who's not worth mentioning."
"These books are all the result of the ages, the culmination of the lives of giants of their time!"
"By studying these books seriously now, I am essentially standing on the shoulders of these historical giants to improve my own understanding."
"No matter what happens in the future, I will be able to handle it calmly."
Ye Jingyao understood what the man meant, and felt a strange sense of admiration. "You're really amazing."
"You are still young, and this is the time when your mind is most active. You should spend more time learning new knowledge."
Su Jie shook his head. "Improve your inner core, instead of thinking about doing the lowest-level part-time jobs to make money."
"Once you improve your core values, making money will be easier and faster."
He paused for a moment, then laughed and said, "Of course, you can also say that I'm out of touch with reality and don't know your difficulties."
"But that is indeed the situation you are facing now."
"You need to make the right choice: continue doing useless part-time jobs and wasting your life?"
"Or should I focus on my studies, work hard now, so that I can have an easier life in the future and reach a higher ceiling in my life?"
Although they hadn't interacted much, the man's words carried significant weight in Ye Jingyao's heart. Yet, a question still lingered in her mind: "Brother Jie, didn't you ask me to help Shen Ruoxuan?"
