Chapter 628: Chapter 630 Old and New (5)
After much thought, he couldn’t figure out what was off.
Seeing the pale-faced Lu Weixi as he walked in, he finally understood what was wrong: she had used her Death Exemption Token today!
Qin Zhiyou’s first reaction was, wait a minute, he rembered Lu Weixi’s exemption was supposed to be for two days later!
His second reaction was, his efforts over the past month had been in vain!
However, seeing the pale face of Lu Weixi, he felt uncomfortable. He approached and asked with a frown, “Haven’t you been taking dication and managing it? Are you uncomfortable sowhere else?”
“I’m fine and not in pain, just a little weak,” Lu Weixi shook her head, “Maybe I’ve been under too much pressure lately.”
Actually, Lu Weixi didn’t face much pressure at work recently. The Siyi Company deal was practically a sure thing, Hanhai was a bonus provided by Qin Zhiyou, paying a lot of money, but not exhausting. At Lulu, no one dared to antagonize her now, and she got the best deals. Even the boss would greet her with a beaming smile.
She beca selective in projects. Indeed, as advised by Qin Zhiyou, she only chose the challenging ones, no matter how much they paid. She allocated the remaining projects fairly among other designers without any bias. She had already started preparing for the Ph.D. exam.
Her English was good; she had cleared TOEFL and GRE tests for studying abroad previously, picking it up again was not too difficult. She wasn’t worried about the professional content, after two years of graduation, she had been consistently practicing. Of course, the key to a doctorate was the guide, and she had chosen her master’s guide.
Even though she had once considered resigning to continue her studies full-ti, after carefully considering, she decided not to give up her job and study while working.
She once dread of becoming a world-class interior designer. Now she realized that she may not get a chance to study in the top architecture program in the world, and might never beco a top-notch designer. But getting a doctorate, aiming for a higher professional certificate, striving upwards, being independent to support her mother’s treatnt costs, and enhancing herself to her best is already enough.
Speaking of her mother, she was Lu Weixi’s biggest pressure recently.
But even though the stress from her mother was intense, she felt proud. Because Lu Weixi could see that her mother was incredibly strong, and it was a pleasantly surprising strength.
Perhaps the experience of this Ghost Gate, led her to realize, that she must stand up. Bai Changyou and Mrs. Cai wouldn’t defeat her; she had to be stronger for her daughter.
Truthfully, watching her mother get angry, resentful, and irritated, although it brought her stress and discomfort, she felt happy. It ant that at least her mother chose to live a lively life and had sothing to hold onto. Of course, if her mother could live a smoother life, she would be even happier.
As soon as Lu Weixi ntioned the stress, Qin Zhiyou imdiately thought of her visit to the hospital today. Lu Weixi’s mother was a bit like her- reasonable and affable as long as not provoked, but once you irritated her, there was no room for negotiation.
Qin Zhiyou didn’t know what to say, the issue with Lu Weixi’s mother was sothing they both had to face together.
But with an already damaged impression, all he could do was try hard to change it, though it was tough to do that change rapidly.
