Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Don’t Want to be a Sacrifice

Later, probably due to some concerns, Yu Yao turned to ask Shi Nuan about her studies.

She said, "I heard you’re graduating in two months. What are your plans after graduation? You’re still very young. Do you plan to continue your studies further?"

Shi Nuan originally planned to work at Shi Company after graduation, but with the current state of the Shi Family, can she still get in?

With Song Yichuan gone and her engagement with Song Yichuan annulled by Song Yansheng, do the ten percent shares still hold?

Uncertain.

So what exactly should she do after graduating?

Work? Where to work?

Continue studying? How much longer can she endure?

No idea.

"No plans for now."

Shi Nuan spoke truthfully.

Yu Yao nodded upon hearing this and said, "It doesn’t matter whether you have plans or not. After all, there are still two months. But I personally think you don’t need to work at all nor worry about a job; just stay at home and take care of A Yu. In the future, have a child with A Yu, and once you have a child, your life will surely get busy. You won’t have the mind for anything else!"

At that time, Shi Nuan was just holding a water cup planning to have some tea as her throat felt dry.

Hearing Yu Yao’s words, her fingers trembled, the teacup tilted in her hand, and the tea was about to spill out.

A man’s hand quickly reached out, steadily holding the bottom of the teacup.

The man’s fingers were long and well-jointed; his fair skin made the veins on the back of his hand clearly visible.

Shi Nuan’s eyes flickered as she looked at the man. The man softly smiled at her, his dark eyes gazing at her: "Why so careless?"

As he spoke, the hand supporting the teacup moved slightly, gesturing for Shi Nuan to let go, and he placed the teacup on the tea table.

He instructed the servant standing behind him, "Bring over a cup of heated mango juice. Nuannuan is not used to drinking tea!"

The servant nodded and retreated.

Song Qingyang appeared pale, Shi Nuan awkwardly lowered her gaze, and Yu Yao simply sighed in her heart as she watched her son’s demeanor.

The juice was quickly delivered; before the servant could bring it over, Song Yansheng had already risen to take it, tested the temperature with his hand, ensured it wasn’t too hot, and then handed it to Shi Nuan: "Just right, try it!"

Shi Nuan was somewhat overwhelmed by the favor, her clear eyes focused on the man’s handsome face.

The man raised an eyebrow, mildly puzzled: "What’s wrong? Don’t like it?"

"..."

Shi Nuan shook her head, not wanting too much interaction with him in front of Yu Yao and Song Qingyang, and with everyone’s gaze on her now, how could she drink?

Besides, Yu Yao’s earlier mention of having a child... made her thoughts even more complicated...

Shi Nuan stood up, saying: "I... I’d like to go to the restroom first!"

Yu Yao called a servant to lead the way, and Shi Nuan was accompanied by the servant to go.

Song Yansheng put down the cup in his hand, leaned back, and looked at the two women opposite him, asking: "What were you talking about earlier? I heard something about breaking off the engagement?"

Yu Yaodao said: "A Yu, while you’re here, just tell Qingyang. She’s planning to break off the engagement with Yu Dou without notice. I haven’t even had a chance to persuade her properly!"

Song Qingyang, whose earlier suppressed bitterness resurfaced, said: "Yu Dou and I are in a business alliance. The Shi Company is thriving now because of Yu Dou, while the Song Family has been declining over the years. That’s why my father forced me to get engaged to Yu Dou. There’s no love between us; I don’t love him, and he doesn’t love me. I don’t want to be a sacrifice for the benefit of two companies, so I must break off the engagement!"

Yu Yao frowned upon hearing this and said: "Qingyang, love, as they say, takes time and intimacy to develop. Yu Dou is a good kid in many ways, respectful to elders and obedient. What are you dissatisfied with? What sacrifice of interests? It’s not like you’re jumping into a fire pit. How does this make you a sacrifice?"
