Chapter 378: Chapter 378: Don’t Lose the Big Picture over Small Issues

Chiang Qing watched Cheng Su leave, her lips pressed into a straight line, still shocked by what she had just said.

Could those words come from a culturally unassuming village girl? If she hadn’t heard and seen it with her own ears and eyes, she would have had a hard time believing it.

Was Cheng Su really just an uneducated village girl who hadn’t even finished high school?

Chiang Qing suddenly became unsure, as Cheng Su time and again overturned her prior assumptions and made her surprised and reassess.

It seemed, she had indeed underestimated her.

Underestimating the opponent, that was fatal.

"Sister Qing, what are you standing here for?" A delicate voice brought Chiang Qing back to reality as she followed her gaze, "Who is that?"

Chiang Qing came to her senses, it was Wang Yingying, the young nurse from her medical team, and she replied, "Commander Qi’s wife."

"Oh. Commander Qi’s wife is dressed quite fashionably, huh? That outfit is really nice," Wang Yingying complimented Cheng Su’s retreating figure, few in the compound dressed like that.

Chiang Qing’s face darkened slightly, casting a casual glance at her, "You think she looks good just from her back, shallow."

With that, she walked away in her high-heeled leather shoes, clacking as she went.

Wang Yingying, somewhat puzzled, pursed her small lips and muttered, "What’s that about? Did I step on a cat’s tail first thing in the morning?" and hurriedly followed after.

As for Cheng Su, after giving Chiang Qing a good talk, her mood was exceptionally great.

This time she spoke kindly, whether Chiang Qing took the hint or not, if she really blatantly started to flirt with her husband and challenge her limits, it would be more than just a talk.

But just now, that little nursery rhyme, Cheng Su chuckled, a smile appearing on her lips, her eyes softening as she reminisced, it was something Luh Wei had told her in a previous life.

Why was it again? She had a small cavity in one of her teeth, and at the time, she was busy with various competitive exams, had no time to visit the dentist, and it wasn’t painful or bothering her, so she just ignored it. But one day, it suddenly worsened, causing her excruciating pain, she couldn’t bear it and had to call Luh Wei in the middle of the night to take her to the emergency room.

Afterward, the doctor declared her tooth was rotten to the root, the nerve dead, and the only option was extraction and root canal therapy; without the nerve, the tooth would slowly turn yellow then black. For cosmetic reasons, she had to get a crown.

Luh Wei was with her throughout the whole process, and when she could no longer cry, he told her about the nursery rhyme from Ancient England - just because of a missing horseshoe nail, a kingdom was lost. How was that different from losing a tooth over a small hole?

This story also told her not to lose sight of the bigger picture over small things and not to underestimate a small action, which often can trigger a domino effect, as with her tooth.

Because she experienced it firsthand, she firmly remembered that nursery rhyme, constantly reminding herself not to overlook any small detail. Luh Wei, he taught her so much...

"May I sit here?" Suddenly, a voice pulled Cheng Su from her deep thoughts.

"Yes... Huh?" Cheng Su was about to make room, but as she looked up, a familiar smiling face appeared before her, "Luh... Kai!"

This time, she hadn’t gotten the name wrong. It was Luh Kai, who had the same face as Luh Wei.

And upon seeing her, Luh Kai also paused for a moment, then smiled, "Ms. Cheng."
