Chapter 214: 217 Casual Speech_1
Zhou Ziqing spoke honestly, "That’s not entirely true. Working abroad does not emphasize on academic qualifications, but rather on ability. Only those who are capable and have opportunities can potentially achieve some success! Of course, it can’t be said that having a high level of education is useless. Foreign universities focus more on the development of ability, so if you have a diploma, you really do stand out in terms of ability! Additionally, in universities and research institutions, one of the more important aspects is that you can meet more people, especially those in your own field, which can be very helpful after graduation!"
"Then your boyfriend must be doing well right?" asked Song Yuyun.
Zhou Ziqing shook her head, "He’s a traditional IT man. He has the professional knowledge, skillset and capability, but he’s not good at handling interpersonal relationships. So, when he entered the industry, he didn’t have any connections and couldn’t sell himself, let alone the software he designed."
"Oh..." Lin Xiangwan nodded, not knowing what to say next.
Zhou Ziqing smiled, "But my boyfriend is definitely a talent, just hasn’t met the right person to recognize his potential. Ah, when this unpolished gem shines, I’ll surely rise with him!"
Song Yuyun laughed, "Sister, aren’t you being too modest? You don’t need anyone, you’re capable yourself. I remember last time you came back to China, you were promoting luxury goods for a company, and you were earning forty to fifty thousand a month!"
"Hehe...." Zhou Ziqing chuckled without saying much, accepting these facts. "That’s all in the past, now I’m not making a penny!"
"Hey, the money you make in a month probably covers what I make in half a year!" said Song Yuyun with envy. "I pant and struggle to earn the money that hardly stretches."
"You see, you were born with a silver spoon, even if you didn’t earn money, your father’s patent money is enough for you to lead a good life. I’m different, I need to support my mom..."
"My dad’s money is my dad’s, I never thought about it." Song Yuyun declared. "And I hope my dad can find another woman to accompany him in his old age, that would be pretty nice!"
Lin Xiangwan listened to them quietly, envious of those who have parents.
She wondered who her parents were and what they were doing!
Zhou Ziqing then turned her attention back to Lin Xiangwan, "Ms. Lin, what kind of work do you do?"
"I’ve been staying at home recently, not doing anything..."
"Are you a housewife?" Zhou Ziqing interrupted her!
"Yes!" Lin Xiangwan admitted with embarrassment.
She really wanted to say that she used to be a high-ranking executive in a company, not just a woman who stays at home all the time!
Zhou Ziqing expressed some envy, "That’s really nice. Women who can stay at home and still have money to spend are really lucky. However, you do certainly miss out on the joy, tension and excitement that come from working!"
"Hm!" Lin Xiangwan didn’t feel happy being spoken to in this way, as if she were a parasite!
But she had only been at home for a month in all this time, how did that make her a parasite?
She felt so wronged.
But luckily, Song Yuyun managed to clear Lin Xiangwan’s reputation, saying, "Wanwan is a very hardworking woman. She’s just taking a temporary break from work because she just got married. Before, her annual salary was very high, and she was even a shareholder of a hotel, receiving a considerable bonus at the end of the year!"
Only then did Zhou Ziqing look at Lin Xiangwan in a new light, and had more respect for her as a working woman. "See, I told you, it would be a shame for a graduate of B University to just stay at home, wouldn’t it?"
"Hehe...." Lin Xiangwan gave a light laugh.
"However, since you do work, why is your husband abusive towards you?" Zhou Ziqing asked again.
"Ah..." Lin Xiangwan’s cheeks reddened, not knowing how to explain.
Song Yuyun explained again, "Sister, Wanwan is not being abused, it’s just her husband kisses her too fiercely causing her to have bruises all over!"
Lin Xiangwan’s cheeks turned even redder. "Yuyun, you don’t need to explain in such great detail!"
"Haha, I misunderstood. I’m sorry!" Zhou Ziqing apologized embarrassingly. "In that case, your husband must be very capable in that regard?"
"That...."
Yuyun continued to explain, "He is certainly very fierce in that regard!"
"Ah...." Lin Xiangwan’s face turned beet red.
Zhou Ziqing looked at her shy appearance and laughed, "So, how many times does your husband ask for it in a night?"
"..." Lin Xiangwan looked at her in astonishment.
She didn’t expect her to start inquiring about her most intimate matters at their first meeting!
"Haha...." Zhou Ziqing laughed. "Do you think I’m too nosy? But I really want to know about Chinese men. Foreign men are very good, they can go four or five times a night!"
"Oh...." Lin Xiangwan kept her mouth shut and didn’t say a word.
Even Song Yuyun didn’t say anything this time, of course, she didn’t know either!
Zhou Ziqing felt a bit embarrassed not receiving a reply and quickly changed the topic, "So, what do you plan to do in the future? Keep applying for jobs or do something on your own?"
"Start a business, I guess!"
"Oh...." Zhou Ziqing nodded. "That’s great, since you don’t much pressure to earn money, it’s better to start a business!"
"Yes!"
That is the truth. Even if she drained all her money down to the last penny in her business, Qin Muchuan would still take care of the child.
On the other hand, even if she became the richest person in the country, Qin Muchuan would never use her money to raise their child, would he?
"That’s great then, do you have any good business ideas? If not, I can introduce some for you!" Zhou Ziqing offered help. "For instance, if you want to introduce and sell some foreign brands, I can help!"
"Thank you, but the startup fund my husband gave me isn’t much. I don’t think there’s much chance for me to represent a foreign brand!"
"I’ve just compiled some startup tips that could be helpful. I’ll send it to you tonight!"
"Great!"
Zhou Ziqing was truly a woman who walks the talk. The moment she got home, she sent over some materials!
"Thank you, sister!" Lin Xiangwan texted her.
"You’re welcome. I hope you succeed in your career. That way, your husband will look at you differently, understand?" Zhou Ziqing texted back, adding a smiling face.
"Yes!"
"I heard from Yuyun, you married your husband because of your child?" Zhou Ziqing sent another text!
Lin Xiangwan was taken aback when she saw the message, and sent back a question mark emoji.
"You’ve sacrificed a lot for your child, being a woman is not easy. So, you should be kind to yourself!"
"Yes!"
Though her words made a lot of sense and she seemed to have delved into her private matters, this sister was genuinely concerned about her!
