Chapter 1604: Chapter 1604: Arrogance
He didn’t want her to study science and engineering, to work in heavy industries, because it was very tough, mentally exhausting, a field of absolute intensity and mental drain.
What he wanted most was just for her to live simply, happily, without needing to strive so hard. So what if she was a lazy person? With him pampering her, taking care of her, protecting her, why worry about how others saw her or what they thought? As long as he was willing, it was a matter between them.
But she had never been more serious; she insisted on going to a science and engineering school, absorbed in books, determined to acquire knowledge, with the ambition to become a career-driven woman. He felt sorry for her being so determined at a young age, yet he didn’t forcibly stop her dream or prevent her from moving in that direction.
Since she had such grand ambitions, so be it, he would support her.
In this field, achieving success and becoming the best technical engineer was extremely difficult, but he had enough authority and resources to leverage connections, letting Professor Wolf be her mentor, allowing her to enter the best project team, exposed to the industry’s core technologies.
Because he believed this way, she could stand on a higher platform earlier, learn from the best predecessors, work with the best, and quicker, she could learn more professional knowledge and accumulate powerful experience.
Then her future path could go further, stand on a higher platform, and at such a young age, become an elite in the industry.
He didn’t understand what was wrong with painstakingly creating a shortcut for her.
Why was she so stubborn, refusing to accept his good intentions, and hence, resented him.
"For your own good, what a universal excuse." Jun Yiyi was even angrier, her eyes sparking with tremendous grievance, "Why do you think that just because it’s for my good, I have to accept your barbaric, self-righteous ways?"
Taking opportunities others worked hard for, altering exam scores for her, bribing the school, getting her into the best university, with the best mentors and the best project groups.
Others praised her as a genius, admired how she could join impressive projects at a young age with envy.
But so what, all of this wasn’t achieved through her own efforts.
She recalled Yales’ words, feeling like one sarcastic slap after another on her face.
The moment she learned the truth, she realized she was a clown, obviously an incapable fool, yet he dressed her up as a genius, feeling smug, thinking she really was a genius, boasting to the world so proudly.
Her self-esteem, her confidence was completely shattered by him.
Years of daily effort only proved she was truly worthless, relying merely on family background and underhanded rules to survive like a good-for-nothing.
She was really, truly sad inside.
She had never negated her entire being like this, feeling so useless, even despising herself.
"What I hate most is your self-righteous thinking. Just because it’s for my good, you think you can freely interfere with my life. But that’s not what I need. Even if I’m an idiot, I don’t need you to dress me up as a genius to satisfy my vanity."
Laughing and crying, in her heart was deep despair, yet she still couldn’t let go of the inferiority and pride she maintained in front of him.
"Ji Lingkong, you simply don’t understand why I strive so hard, so you can easily destroy my efforts and trample my pride in the dust."
