Chapter 732: Chapter 734 That Night (1)
That feeling of sourness, pain, and absolute despair is something she would never forget for the rest of her life.
So, even though Xiang Yirou was not as directly sharp as Liu Yiyi, the impression she left on herself was significantly deeper than Yiyi’s.
Looking back now, even though she married Qin Zhiyou on a whim, she must admit that her early married life was quite decent. Until…
Lu Weixi’s eyelashes trembled, she stopped speaking and slightly lowered her head.
She admitted that her mother’s words had struck a chord deep within her. She found it hard to let go.
“Mom, let the bygones be bygones. Now that I’ve given him another chance, I won’t readily bring up the past.” After a long pause, she took a deep breath and slowly spoke.
“You know my current situation. Without a major project, I get around thirty thousand a month. But the big projects… you understand. Even though I’ve been working hard to be worthy of these projects, without Zhiyou’s help, I wouldn’t be able to secure them. I’m working on my PhD and high-ranking professional qualifications, but there’s no telling what kind of projects I may get afterwards. Besides medical expenses, everything else could become a struggle for survival.”
She couldn’t divorce, that was a realistic factor. She had signed an agreement with Mrs. Yang Mogui before her marriage. If she were to initiate a divorce, no matter what the reason, she wouldn’t be entitled to any assets. Perhaps Qin Zhiyou would give her some marital assets, and she wouldn’t have to scrimp and save every month to make ends meet, but her mother’s funds for medical aid weren’t something she could obtain just by having money.
And then there were the projects in her hands.
In recent months, with Qin Zhiyou’s help, she was able to get involved in several other major projects. Some as the lead designer, some just as a team member. Without a doubt, her progress in recent months had been rapid, remarkably so. It was faster than everything she had learned so far, throughout her years of hard work and learning in school.
After all, design wasn’t just about having solid basics, lightning-fast inspiration or refined artistic taste, it also required practical application.
Participating in major projects, even just in a supporting role, taught her about other designers’ methods and techniques. Interacting with them also broadened her horizons and enriched her ideas. She no longer rejected Qin Zhiyou’s offer of help. She no longer insisted on doing everything on her own. These projects and resources weren’t things she could obtain on her own.

Just like Xue Feifei, one had to admit, without Yu Sixing, Feifei wouldn’t have been able to get those acting deals, no matter how talented she was.
Of course, just like Xue Feifei, she wasn’t just taking easy and wealthy jobs lying in the comfort zone created by Qin Zhiyou. After taking on a project, she would work hard to improve herself, to match her capacity with the demands of the projects.
Mom Lu shook her head.
There were only two scenarios where a person would console themselves with these objective conditions. One, they didn’t love this person. Just like Xue Feifei and Yu Sixing, she didn’t love him, so their interaction was seen as an exchange of benefits. Since they couldn’t break up, they might as well get as much as they could out of the relationship. Two, they were deeply in love and because of this love, they would use these objective conditions to convince themselves and imagine the other person’s good points.
Her daughter might have been the former in the past, but now she was definitely the latter.
“So what you’re saying is, my illness is dragging down your life.”
