Chapter 300: Equal amount of trust and respect
Lu Chen was still sipping on his tea. The reason why he hasn't talked yet was that it wasn't his place to say anything.
"I'm sorry that you have to hear something like that, young man." Feng Qiang apologizes. It was embarrassing to have forgotten a guest was here.
Lu Chen waves his hand, "It's fine. But I think I should say a few things about this." He turns to Fu Chunhua,
"Ms. Feng, you keep saying that Lai Dingxiang was the perfect husband for Feng Meifeng? But have you ever thought about Feng Meifeng's feelings?"
Fu Chunhua snarls, " Feelings are something that can be formed once the two of them are together. It's something that can be built. With Lai Dingxiang persistence, those feelings can definitely form!"
Lu Chen smiles, "Do you really think Lai Dingxiang could change Feng Meifeng's feelings? Even after what he was doing, how could he be a perfect potential husband for Feng Meifeng?" What Lai Dingxiang did was the complete opposite. It just made Feng Meifeng hate him even more.
"Shut up, brat! What do you know!" Fu Chunhua got pissed off as she shouted at Lu Chen! Feng Qiang screams at her,
"Fu Chunhua!"
"But it's true. How could somebody that doesn't care about your daughter's feelings be the perfect husband? There has to be something else to it. " Lu Chen continues to deduce,
"No, you did something in the past, didn't you? That's why you don't want Feng Meifeng to go through something like that too. Am I right?" From how coldly Fu Chunhua had been acting towards him, Lu Chen felt something was off.
Fu Chunhua's expression paled when Lu Chen finished his sentence.
He hit the mark.
Fu Chunhua grits her teeth, "People like you have always treated us middle-class workers as tools and playthings! I have been used by someone like you and was then thrown out the next day!" Fu Chunhua was a goddess in her school days. Many people tried to court her. One day, a rich and handsome man starts going after her.
He had everything. Fu Chunhua started dating him. She had thought he was the perfect person for her. The guy even said that he was willing to give up everything for her.
Fu Chunhua was sucked in by those words and had given her body to him. The next day, the guy had thrown her away like trash!
Rumors started to spread about her being used goods or being a slut. She almost couldn't take it. However, in her college days, she was lucky and met Feng Qiang.
From then on, she knew all rich people were evil.
"..." Feng Qiang stayed silent. He never knew what happened to her in high school days. Fu Chunhua continues,
"That's why I want Feng Meifeng to marry Lai Dingxiang. I don't want people like you to make her life a living nightmare!"
The moment Fu Chunhua gave birth to Feng Meifeng, she swore that Feng Meifeng would never have to go through the same thing as her.
Lu Chen understood everything now. He asks her, " What would happen if Feng Meifeng never liked Lai Dingxiang?" That was the main thing Lu Chen was worried about.
"If she really doesn't have feelings for him, then she could divorce him."
"Can you really say it like that? If Feng Meifeng gets a divorce, will she be able to get married to another person?"
"That..." Fu Chunhua hadn't thought about this. Seeing her confused look, Lu Chen continues, " In a relationship, there should be an equal amount of mutual trust and interest between both parties."
" I have seen many people that were married to people they don't like. Those usually end with the two divorcing or living a sad and stressful life." The perfect example of this was him and Liu Fei Fei. It was just a cold and distant relationship.
"My parents are a perfect example of how mutual feelings work. Also, you guys too. Having a mutual feeling with the other partner is something that will always help."
Fu Chanhua's face paled! "What have I done?!" She finally understands what she was trying to do to her daughter! She only wanted her daughter to escape death. But she was pushing her into a bottomless pit of despair!
Seeing her cry, Feng Qiang starts to comfort her. Now that she said this, he finally understood why she kept forcing it.
