Stop Comparing Them to Her

"Your son is not as stubborn as you think. This bell is just an ordinary bell. It has no meaning." Wei Zhengsheng said lightly.

Bei Xiaolia was about to say something else when Wei Zhengsheng turned to her and said softly, "Mom, I have attended many meetings today. I want to rest."

Bei Xiaolia stopped talking and shook her head, sighing. "Son, when you become a father one day, you will know how I feel right now. The hearts of all the parents in the world..."

"I know." Wei Zhengsheng interrupted her.

Bei Xiaolia shook her head and left the room. Wei Zhengsheng closed the door and took off his jacket, throwing it on the back of the chair.

He sat down on the bed. He did not look at the dragon and phoenix bell hanging on the lampstand. But when he went to get a glass of water on the bedside cabinet, his eyes suddenly turned to the hanging bell.

This bell was one of the bells he had bought for Xian Guiying in Wuyuan back then. The bell came in a pair. The other one was originally in the bag he had brought to Wuyuan, but after he returned to the United States, he did not take the bag with him. He hadn't seen the bell since then.

This was not his obsession. It was just a habit. His habit of keeping things that were memories to him.

The crisis between Xian Guiying and Qin Gengxin had already been settled. Xian Guiying was pregnant again and the two of them would marry again. Their wedding invitation card was also in his desk drawer.

Really, it was just a habit.

Setting down the glass, Wei Zhengsheng tapped the bell with his finger. The bell emitted a sharp sound.

Bei Xiaolia actually did not leave. She went downstairs to get her iPad and returned to Wei Zhengsheng's bedroom again. When she heard the sound of the bell outside his bedroom, she immediately opened some photos. Then she pushed open the door of the room.

Sure enough, once Bei Xiaolia opened the door, she saw Wei Zhengsheng standing in front of the bell. She suppressed her anger and went up to him cheerfully. "Zhengsheng, you haven't seen Yu Daiyu yet, haven't you? Come, take a look at this photo of her. Let's see if she's your type."

Saying this, Bei Xiaolia didn't care whether Wei Zhengsheng was angry or not. She held up the iPad in her hand and showed the enlarged photo on the screen to him.

"Look, this is Yu Daiyu. She's beautiful, isn't she? Besides, she has a baby face, looks clean, and is very likable! Look at this photo. I heard from your Uncle Yu that this photo was taken at a New Year's festival last year. Look how natural her smile was."

Wei Zhengsheng only glanced at the photo on the iPad and said nothing.

Seeing that he showed no expression, Bei Xiaolia scrolled to another photo. "If you don't like her, why don't you look at this woman's photo? She is a new professor at the university where your father works. Her name is Xia Ying. She is twenty-nine years old, smart, mature and strong, and also very ambitious. She is also beautiful. She is only five years younger than you."

Wei Zhengsheng still didn't say anything, he just frowned a little.

"Son, when I thought that you might not like the young girl who just graduated, I specifically asked your father to find someone to introduce to you. This Xia Ying is in no way inferior to Xian Guiying, regardless of looks, figure, education, and character. She is no worse than Xian Guiying."

"Mom, do you really have to compare all these women to Guiying?" Wei Zhengsheng finally became a little impatient. He pressed the "home" button on the iPad and the screen immediately went black. He said lightly. "Stop messing around."

"Why can't I compare them to Xian Guiying, or do you think none of these women can be compared to her? Zhengsheng, you ..."

Wei Zhengsheng frowned and looked at her. "That's not what I mean."

"Then why are you ..."

"You don't need to compare. If I don't like them, I simply don't like them. This has nothing to do with Xian Guiying. You don't need to drag her into this mess just because I don't want to get married. Mom, I'm not defending her, I'm just telling the truth. If you don't want me to be affected by her, please don't mention her to me anymore, okay?"

Bei Xiaolia was at a loss for words. After some time, she finally asked, "Since it has nothing to do with her, how can you be so sure that you won't like one of these women? Just look at this photo..."

Bei Xiaolia touched the screen of the iPad and scrolled to the next photo. "This woman is the head of Sunlight Institution. She graduated from Tsinghua College and is twenty-eight years old. She is in charge of trade and communication between China and America."

Wei Zhengsheng took a deep breath. Seeing that he was getting impatient, Bei Xiaolia lowered the iPad in her hand and let out a long sigh.

When Bei Xiaolia left his bedroom with a little disappointment, it was only then that Wei Zhengsheng could finally enjoy some peace.

Today, he had to attend many meetings at the company, and when he returned home, he had to deal with his mother's bombardment.

Wei Zhengsheng felt himself getting a headache and raised his hand to rub his forehead.

Even though he didn't like it, he admitted that it hurt his heart to see how upset his mother was.

Maybe if he got married, his mother would be happy.
