"Yes, maybe you don't need these for now. Maybe you're whole - heartedly set on fulfilling your lofty ambitions. But Yi Pin, have you ever thought about this? The platforms in this world are not fair. Maybe in many cases, academic qualifications don't mean much, but under the current system, they can get you onto a higher platform. You should know that this is a treacherous society. You haven't felt the cruelty of the society yet. I don't want you to enter this dark society so early!"
Shen Yu calmed down before he opened his mouth, frowning slightly.
Yi Pin was stunned for a moment and then calmed down too. He had indeed been a bit impulsive just now, and his words were too harsh, leaving no room for negotiation.
"But no matter what, we'll have to face it eventually, right? And I think even if I go out now, I can still make a name for myself."
Yi Pin still showed no sign of giving in.
He knew that Shen Yu's earnest exhortations were meant to help him become better. But he also knew that Shen Yu was already in his thirties.
He wanted to start working early, to integrate into Shen Yu's life earlier, and even...
But if you're just a student, you'll always be like a flower in a greenhouse and will never experience what it means to forge ahead through wind and rain.
He felt that there would always be a certain distance between him and Shen Yu, which was what he was afraid of.
"I didn't say you couldn't do it. I know you can make a name for yourself even if you come out now. But..."
Before Shen Yu could say anything more, Yi Pin couldn't stand listening anymore and flew into a rage: "You don't need to interfere in my business. Stop dictating my life here. I don't want to study. I just don't want to. I just want to make money first... What? Do you, a university professor, look down on us undergraduates? We're not the same kind of people. Why do you always force me?"
Shen Yu frowned but said nothing more, just furrowing his brows.
Yi Pin stormed in angrily and locked the door.
Then, the more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Finally, he packed up all his things and left under Shen Yu's watchful eyes.
He pulled his suitcase to the roadside, frowned. It was late at night and he couldn't find a ride. His mood was extremely irritable.
He had said so much, but why didn't Shen Yu understand anything?
He sighed helplessly and quietly looked at the contact list on his phone.
He called Wang Xiangyang, but the line was always busy.
Then he called Lin Yangcong. As soon as the call was answered, he heard heavy breathing, and he could also hear Wang Xiangyang's voice on the phone.
"Damn it! You might as well not have answered!"
Yi Pin frowned, looking disgusted.
"Pinzi, what's up?"
Wang Xiangyang's voice came through.
"Nothing, nothing. You guys continue. I shouldn't have bothered you. I'm guilty."
Yi Pin hung up the phone helplessly.
Then he looked at his phone, not knowing who to call.
Finally, he had no choice but to walk alone silently.
As he walked, he suddenly noticed a car following him, with its headlights always on.
The more Yi Pin thought about it, the more something seemed off. Could it be that he had offended some gang recently and they were going to murder him?
Since he became a lawyer, he had seen all kinds of strange dead bodies and understood all kinds of strange motives for murder. Now his imagination had become wilder. He always felt that he was about to be killed the next second.
But Yi Pin was in a really bad mood that day. He suddenly put down his suitcase and turned around angrily.
He walked coldly to the car door: "Are you crazy? If you're crazy, go take your medicine. Why do you keep following me? What? Are you going to murder me? Get out and let's fight."
Then the car window rolled down, and Yi Pin saw a face that was both comical and smiling.
"Yo, is Young Master Yi in a bad mood today? As a lawyer, always thinking about fighting isn't a good thing, is it?"
Qi Mingyang hooked the corner of his mouth and smiled, looking very interested.
"Damn it, it's you!"
Yi Pin was shocked, and couldn't help but take a look at Qi Mingyang in front of him.
Then he got into Qi Mingyang's car and left the villa.
Yi Pin didn't say much on the way. His face was always gloomy.
Qi Mingyang was very sensible and didn't ask him any questions or force him to talk. He just quietly accompanied him.
"Thanks. I'll treat you to dinner another day!"
After getting out of the car, Yi Pin smiled and turned to enter the house.
"Okay! I'll set the time!" Qi Mingyang watched his lonely back and smiled.
"Sure!"
When he got home, his anger hadn't subsided yet, but his stomach was growling. It was already time for Aunt Liu to rest.
Yi Pin kept muttering to himself: "I can do fine without him. I lived just fine before without him. Cooking is nothing difficult."
But a few minutes later, he felt that this statement was really embarrassing.
Looking at the blackened fried eggs and the tough steak that he couldn't even bite, he sighed. He just couldn't eat them. He had no choice but to throw his hands up and eat a few candies.
Yi Pin frowned, feeling extremely irritable. After getting home, he couldn't sit still. He quietly waited for messages on his phone.
But until the next day, he didn't receive any messages from Shen Yu.
Was he really angry? But what he said was the truth. Although his tone was a bit impulsive, the words might be rough but the meaning was right.
In the early morning, he could only buy something to eat by himself and went to the company alone, feeling listless.
Recently, Yi Pin had been helping his father deal with some things.
Although he would never go into business, this was still the empire his father had built. Naturally, he had to maintain his father's hard - won achievements.
He thought that he would leave when the time was right.
He originally thought that Shen Yu would contact him in a few days, but the reality proved otherwise. A whole week had passed, and there wasn't even a single message.
Yi Pin frowned, looking at the black avatar on his phone, feeling extremely irritated.
He walked alone on the street. Originally, he wanted to find a place to eat, but unconsciously, he came to that apartment.
"Damn it, Yi Pin, you..."
He scolded himself in a low voice at the door for a while before he planned to go in. After thinking for a long time, he came up with an excuse that he hadn't finished packing his things and came back to look for them.
When everything was ready, Yi Pin hooked the corner of his mouth and walked over slowly. But from afar, he saw Shen Yu walking with Cheng Lingqing, looking very intimate.
Looking at their departing backs, Yi Pin stood still on the spot, not knowing what to do.
At this time, an aunt from the same apartment was about to go square - dancing and walked over flamboyantly.
"Xiao Yi, you're back?"
The aunt asked very enthusiastically.
Yi Pin smiled and nodded.
"Why haven't I seen you these days?" The aunt didn't know how to read the atmosphere at all. Even though Yi Pin's face was ashen, she still asked about trivial things.
"Yeah, I moved out recently!" Yi Pin smiled politely.
"No wonder. Is it because Xiao Shen has a girlfriend? You should also find a girlfriend soon. You're not a kid anymore. Do you want aunt to introduce one to you?"
The aunt asked with a smile, looking very gossipy, holding a folding fan in her hand.
"What did you say? He... has a girlfriend? You mean Shen Yu?" Yi Pin looked at the aunt in front of him in shock.
"Yeah. What's wrong with you? Aren't you two really good friends? So close..."
Yi Pin left the apartment in a daze. He didn't know how he got home. It felt like everything was going to end.
