Qin Zhiheng nodded without hesitation. "Love is too ethereal and impractical, and it comes with too many uncertainties. Choosing an ordinary person would disrupt our progress. If she and I were together, most of our lives would be spent on things we're interested in, without too many distractions or drains on our energy."
"It's like you and Dad. You two managed to turn what should have been a smooth life into such a mess. If just one of you had been willing to let go, our family of three would have been much happier."
"Think about it for yourself. Over these years, have you been lucky or unlucky?"
Qin Mu couldn't answer.
Qin Zhiheng continued, "I know it's not for others to judge your choices. I'm also someone affected by this situation. I really dislike the life I once had. I think your choices weren't good, and I don't want to follow in your footsteps. I want to choose a partner who is smart enough not to be bound by conventional societal values."
