"Is that smirk on your lips mocking me and the two children for vying for attention?" Ye Mingjue asked. 。"Absolutely not, where would I dare to ridicule you " 。"An Xiaonuan said with special sincerity" 。Though she was just playing coy, Ye Mingjue still smiled and didn't make things difficult for her. 。An Xiaonuan didn't speak again, and Ye Mingjue also fell silent. 。As time passed, the sky gradually darkened, and the yacht set off on its return journey. 。Around seven in the evening, they arrived at the harbor and then went to the Ubud Palace to experience Balinese traditional art and culture. They also watched a traditional Balinese dance performance there. 。Having returned from the Ubud Palace, it was already late. After a long day, everyone felt tired and went back to the hotel to rest. 。The next day, the weather was sunny and perfect for sightseeing. They visited the Sea God Temple in the morning and went to Kuta Beach, Bali's famous beach, in the afternoon. 。Walking on the soft sand, with the sea breeze blowing and watching the beautiful sunset, is indeed incredibly pleasant. It's worth the long journey to experience this once. 。That night, they stayed at a hotel near the beach. 。As everyone was busy, on the third morning of their trip to Bali, the group set off for their journey back to Ubud. 。At midday, the plane landed, and the travelers returned to their busy lives, each going their separate ways. 。Out of the airport, Ye Mingjue and An Xiaonuan returned to the company together. 。After arriving at the company, the two people returned to their respective offices. 。That afternoon, the Human Resources department sent An Xiaonuan eight resumes. These were all potential candidates for An Xiaonuan's assistant position. 。Of course, all of these candidates have been rigorously screened by the Human Resources department. They are all top-notch in terms of both ability and character. Each person has their own strengths, and the HR department is unsure which one would best suit An Xiaonuan's preferences. Therefore, the HR department has left the choice to An Xiaonuan. After all, she will be interacting with them more frequently in the future, so finding someone she gets along with is quite important. 。An Xiaonuan flipped through those calendars, seeing their academic backgrounds. Her heart trembled. Each person was around her age, with either a master's or doctorate from a prestigious foreign university. Nowadays, people with such credentials often start as assistants. She, a bachelor's degree holder who became the chief designer, must have been lucky to marry a good husband. 。 Therefore, she shouldn't be content with her current situation. Instead, she should continue to strive for improvement and learn more. Otherwise, she will eventually be surpassed by others. 。After reading the resume, An Xiaonuan chose the youngest one. The reason was simple, she thought someone younger would be easier to get along with. 。After picking a good assistant, An Xiaonuan continued working. She needed to research some materials to prepare for the next series of works. 。At six o'clock in the evening, Ye Mingjue came to pick up An Xiaonuan off work on time. 。On the way back, as soon as they got in the car, An Xiaonuan turned to Ye Mingjue and said, “Uncle, I have something to discuss with you. " 。" Ye Mingjue said, "What's the matter that makes you so serious? Tell me." >>>。"I want to study at the Edinburgh College of Art." 。“An Xiaonuan said” 。"No" 。Ye Mingjue immediately objected without hesitation. 。An Xiaonuan's brow furrowed. Ye Mingjue's reaction was beyond An Xiaonuan's expectations. She had originally thought he should be supportive, after all, he himself was a scholar with several doctoral degrees. It made no sense for him to oppose his wife's pursuit of progress. 。An Xiaonuan fell silent for a moment before asking, "Uncle, why do you oppose it?" "Because there's no need to..." 。Night Mingjue answered calmly. 。An Xiaonuan immediately objected: “But I think it’s very necessary. Even my assistant is a master's graduate from a foreign university, and I, a bachelor's graduate, feel a lot of pressure.” 。“ The reason why Ye Mingjue thought she was overthinking it was that others needed a degree from a prestigious school because they needed a beautiful resume to find a good job. ” 。And she didn't need to, her talent was outstanding, and with him as her Bole (a person who discovers and helps talented individuals), and a well-known design grandmother who often gave her advice, she didn't need any fancy degrees to adorn her appearance or the need to study at famous academies. 。She went to further her studies. Other things were fine, but what Ye Mingjue couldn't accept most was the long-term separation from her. 。Seeing her dejected expression, Ye Mingjue advised: "You are the chairman's wife, what pressures do you have " 。"As the president's wife, I should strive for progress even more. That way, I won't bring shame upon you." 。"An Xiaonuan said" 。You are already excellent, your last fluorescent series design was very popular. This is a world where ability speaks, no one will make fun of you, and even less so would anyone dare to make fun of me. 。Ye Mingjue continued. 。He found many reasons, but just wouldn't agree to her studying abroad. Xiaonuan felt very down. 。She didn't continue speaking. Ye Mingjue drove home. 。Because she was feeling down, An Xiaonuan didn't say a word the whole way. 。Upon arriving at the Yuwan Villa, she was still visibly upset. 。"It's because I can't bear to be apart from you that I disagree with you going abroad to study. If you really want to further your studies, continuing at University A is the same. Don't get angry, okay?" Ye Mingjue said softly, trying to persuade her. 。 An Xiaonuan didn't soften her attitude because of his initiative to make peace. She said coldly, "No matter what you say, I'm going to the Edinburgh College of Art. You're holding me back out of reluctance, is that right? Have you ever thought about my feelings? I'm your wife, not a prisoner." 。Ye Mingjue stared at her intently. He had known her for so many years, but this was the first time he saw her so angry, saying such heavy words, and with such an attitude. Ye Mingjue found it even more impossible to agree. 。"If I said no, it means no. I absolutely disagree with you going out." 。"Ye Mingjue stated firmly, 。An Xiaonuan ignored him, got out of the car quickly, kicked the car door hard, and then left. 。Ye Mingjue watched An Xiaonuan's leaving figure, his face covered in frost. After six years of marriage, the two had never disagreed so much that they left on bad terms. 。An Xiaonuan rushed into the villa, then went upstairs to pack her things. She had made up her mind; she was leaving for abroad today. She wanted to see what he could do to her. 。Ye Mingjue saw her packing up as soon as she came back, and he was furious. He snatched the box from her hand and took out everything she had packed piece by piece. 。 An Xiaonuan was already angry, and his actions made her even angrier. Completely disregarding her image, she shouted: "Ye Mingjue, what do you want?" "That's a question I should ask you. You are the mother of three children, and you just run away from home without any discussion. What do you want?" Ye Mingjue said angrily. 。An Xiaonuan didn't want to continue talking to him, reaching out to grab the box from Ye Mingjue's hand. Ye Mingjue naturally disagreed and tried several times but failed. An Xiaonuan gave up and said coldly: "Even if I don't have luggage, it doesn't matter. I don't believe that with just money, I won't be able to buy anything." 。" |
