Chapter 1518: Chapter 1520: None of Your Business
For so reason, he even felt a little overwheld with favor.
Based on what he knew about the ng Family and the things with Old Chiang Family, he knew that Chiang Xiao was soone who could be quite indifferent to family relationships. Once her relatives offended her, she would show no rcy.
If she was willing to speak so cordially with him, she must really consider him as one of her own.
He imdiately straightened his face and said, “Sister-in-law, please go on, I am all ears.”
“There are too many temptations in this world, and furthermore, it’s human nature to crave novelty and despise the familiar. Most cannot resist temptation, whether it be n or won. However, due to social circumstances, the fetters imposed on won by conventional norms are greater, and won tend to lean more towards emotional connections. These two factors combined make won relatively more resistant to temptation from the opposite sex than n.”
Chen Yin was sowhat bewildered.
Although he didn’t see Chiang Xiao as a typical seventeen-year-old girl, her speaking so earnestly about these matters felt really out of place.
Nevertheless, he nodded in agreent, and had to admit that Chiang Xiao was being quite objective.
“Society’s expectations and restrictions on n are naturally fewer. Add to that… physiological reasons, and it becos clear that for a man to resist the temptation of the opposite sex, principles, loyalty, and responsibility are needed. Take Xu Yiqiu for example. In your view, you think nothing happened between you and her, right? But Chen Yin, what truly counts as ‘sothing having happened’?”
Chen Yin wanted to say that it should at least stretch to kissing, hugging, or going to bed, but in front of Chiang Xiao, he was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
However, through his expression, Chiang Xiao understood.
She shook her head and said, “If you were single, nobody would have the right to judge you, even if sothing really did happen between you and Xu Yiqiu—that would be your freedom. However, you have a girlfriend. If you truly love Wang Yi, then to protect her from getting hurt and to cut off all temptations, you should at least set a clear boundary for yourself with other won. Surely, you couldn’t treat other won better than you treat Wang Yi, could you?”
She paused and continued, “Initially you didn’t reject Xu Yiqiu’s approaches, you gave her flowers, you opened the car door for her, pulled out chairs for her, supported her when walking, and made plans to spend the night alone with her. I want to ask, what if it were the other way around, with Wang Yi and Lee Wenwei doing the sa?”
Wang Yi and Lee Wenwei doing the sa…
Chen Yin’s face imdiately darkened, and with that, he probably felt like killing soone.
“You see, people are strict with others but lenient with themselves,” Chiang Xiao said. “So, do you still think that nothing happened between you and Xu Yiqiu, that you did not wrong Wang Yi? While you were doting on Xu Yiqiu, treating her like a gentleman, how did you treat Wang Yi? At that ti, Wang Yi didn’t even exist in your eyes, so isn’t that a sort of betrayal?”
“Sister-in-law…”
“Like ng Xinian, you and other n may feel that he is sowhat inaccessible, cold, and to other won, sowhat cruel, right? But that’s him building a hard wall against temptation for my sake, ultimately it’s because he doesn’t want
to get hurt. He knows that I am the one he is going to spend his life with. He basically can’t love other won, so what’s the need to act gentlemanly to them?”
“Let the n who can love those other won take care of them. What does it have to do with you? When you start feeling protective and tender towards another woman, then what place does your girlfriend have in your heart?”
As she spoke, Chiang Xiao couldn’t help but think of Kuang Kanzhi again.
