Chapter Seventy-Four: Leave It to Me
Shiyu Rou hurriedly shook her head.
“It’s alright, I know you just can’t stand me working here. You’re only thinking of what’s best for me!”
“Then come with me right away. I can help you get a job at Cangzhou Central Hospital, and if that doesn’t work out, you can go straight to Yuan Hongyu’s traditional medicine clinic. Both the environment and the pay are a hundred times better than this place!”
“And as for our family situation, I’ll handle it as soon as possible. Since they won’t let us live there anymore, there’s no reason for us to keep enduring their hostility. We’ll move out!”
Upon hearing this, Shiyu Rou was instantly surprised. “Move out? But do we have that kind of money?”
“These days, if you want to buy even a small apartment in downtown Cangzhou, it would cost at least a million, wouldn’t it?”
She was well aware of their family’s savings and financial circumstances.
She wasn’t quite sure if their family could bear such a burden.
But Yan Yuanqing only smiled with confidence when he heard her concerns.
“Haha, are you still judging me by the person I used to be? Compared to before, I’ve changed tremendously. I’m no longer that useless man who pretended to be crazy and clueless every day.”
“Don’t worry, I already said I’d take care of this. So leave with me now, and get your resignation procedures started as soon as possible.”
“Only when your troubles are settled can I truly focus on resolving our family’s problems, do you understand?”
Throughout his conversation with Shiyu Rou, Yan Yuanqing exuded a powerful confidence and a sense of calm control.
A man like this, in a woman’s eyes, is truly the most attractive kind—an appeal that has nothing to do with looks, but with his presence and aura, a force that conquers a woman’s heart.
Between men and women, women naturally tend to favor men of greater strength. This is a law of nature, universal across all environments.
So in relationships, even if a man isn’t as strong as the woman, he must not lag too far behind. Otherwise, the stability of the relationship will rest entirely in the woman’s hands, and everything will be subject to her control.
But at this moment, for Yan Yuanqing and Shiyu Rou, it was Yan Yuanqing alone who was bearing all the pressure their family faced.
Her eyes gradually filled with tears. Shiyu Rou had been longing for this day for so long she could hardly remember.
When she first married Yan Yuanqing, she had high hopes that he would achieve something great. Over time, those hopes faded, turning to disappointment, until she lost all expectations. Several years passed, and only now, at last, was her faith and hope in him rekindled.
“Yes, I believe in you. I’ll do as you say right now!”
Shiyu Rou made up her mind, choosing to trust Yan Yuanqing to handle everything.
When the two of them went to the supervisor’s office and stated their intentions, the supervisor immediately slammed the desk and stood up.
“You two have some nerve! The family just wanted you to go out and get some experience, not spend your days coddled in a greenhouse with no achievements to your name!”
“And now you want to retaliate against the family like this?” the supervisor snapped.
Shiyu Rou grew anxious and was about to explain, when she felt Yan Yuanqing squeeze her hand.
She swallowed her words.
“Heh, you say it’s for our own good? You keep making our daily life difficult, and when you can’t solve the problem, you just kick us out of the house?”
“This is your idea of training? Funny, I’ve never heard of the Shi family putting any other clansman through such an ordeal.”
