Xue Qinghe summoned a man and led the down-on-his-luck, impoverished scholar away.
Qian Renxue smiled at Tuoba Yan and asked, "Cousin, what do you think of him?"
Tuoba Yan said, "Knowing what you want is wise; being prepared to be imprisoned for a while after making mistakes, and daring to take responsibility for your actions; and not harboring resentment after making mistakes, choosing to return to your hometown and ignore others is rational. A person who knows what they want, has a sense of responsibility, and can choose to remain virtuous and not retaliate against others when they are down and misunderstood, is someone who can be useful even if they lack talent."
Qian Renxue smiled and said, "Cousin, I've stolen your man."
"My ambition lies in cultivation. If it weren't for your mother forcing me, I wouldn't be interested in worldly affairs," Tuoba Yan said.
"Don't mention her." As Qian Renxue spoke, her expression suddenly turned cold.
"What's wrong?" Tuoba Yan asked with concern, "Do you still harbor prejudice against your mother?"
"If she hadn't given birth to me, I would never have wanted to speak to her again." Undoubtedly, Qian Renxue is a rational person. There are some people you may not like, but you don't need to live your whole life for them, wasting your time and energy to torment them.
Everyone's life is on a countdown. It's incredibly foolish to waste your precious time on lousy people and lousy things.
Since giving birth to Qian Renxue, Bibi Dong has never shown any care for her. Even on Qian Renxue's birthday, Bibi Dong never inquired about it, remaining cold and indifferent, like a stranger.
If there were no blood relation, Qian Renxue would never want to have anything to do with Bibi Dong for the rest of her life.
Despite their blood relation, Qian Renxue still didn't want to pay any attention to Bibi Dong.
For Qian Renxue, Bibi Dong was nothing but a "rotten person and a rotten affair." It was utterly pointless to waste time and energy on such a thing. Continuing to dwell on it would not only fail to bring her happiness, but would only lead her to become hopelessly mired in it.
Tuoba Yan sometimes supports Qian Renxue's outlook on life.
Life is short, why waste your precious life on meaningless things?
This is a foolish act.
The purpose of life is to find happiness and to experience life. Since it's about experiencing, it's not about experiencing pain, but about pursuing happiness.
When faced with bad things, if you wallow in them and don't sever the ties in your heart, you will only lose your freedom, your liberation, and your happiness.
Qian Renxue added, "If possible, I hope to never have anything to do with someone like that."
Tuoba Yan remained silent.
Qian Renxue is absolutely right.
What should you do when you encounter bad people or bad things in life?
It's very simple.
What if you encounter a fool, a person with mental problems, or... in short, someone who makes you unhappy?
Of course, it's best to keep your distance.
Tuoba Yan could feel the pain in Qian Renxue's heart. He reached out and touched Qian Renxue's chest.
Qian Renxue was stunned, her mind blank. She and Tuoba Yan were cousins, and she had no defenses against him. To think that Tuoba Yan would treat her like this so unexpectedly.
Tuoba Yan asked, "Does your heart hurt?"
Qian Renxue was stunned.
No way.
She thought to herself, "Is Tuoba Yan sure?" Her fingers touched her chest, as if she just wanted to ask if she was in pain.
Qian Renxue's face flushed slightly, but she didn't flinch. She asked seriously, "You want to speak up for her? Am I wrong?"
Tuoba Yan withdrew his hand, unable to feel any chest muscles. He admired the power of the Angel Soul Bone. He said, "You're right. I support your decision. To ignore someone like that and keep your distance is already very rational and wise, beyond the capabilities of most people."
Do not suffer the pain of others, and do not persuade others to do good.
If I were to experience the suffering of others, they might not be as kind as I am.
This is a profound saying.
As her biological mother, Bibi Dong never fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother. The one in the wrong is Qian Xunji, not Qian Renxue. Qian Renxue is innocent.
Qian Renxue chose not to pay attention to Bibi Dong, so what's wrong with that?
There are very few people in the entire Douluo Continent who can do what Qian Renxue has done.
Some mistakes and wrong ideas, especially those stemming from encountering "bad people and bad things," must we really wait until we're old, until we're on our deathbed, to realize them?
In other words, even if someone has an epiphany before they die, what does that have to do with them?
Tuoba Yan is the same as Qian Renxue.
Once a person is born into this world, the people and things they encounter are no longer within their control. It's like a merchant entering a market.
The market is ever-changing, and its direction is unpredictable. Once you enter the market, nothing is entirely within your control. So what do you do?
The answer is to be the best version of yourself.
The market is like life.
When faced with uncontrollable factors, or unpleasant people and events, we don't expect others to understand, to be enlightened, or to be magnanimous. The only thing we can do well is to be ourselves.
As mentioned above, even if Bibi Dong is dead.
In the original storyline, Bibi Dong truly realized how much she cared for Qian Renxue when she died. Indeed, it was at the moment of her death that her conscience was awakened, her maternal love was restored, and she was killed by Tang San while trying to save Qian Renxue.
Unfortunately, it was all too late.
It wasn't until she was on her deathbed that Bibi Dong realized she had been wrong. Her previous prejudices were wrong.
But what can be done about it?
If Bibi Dong didn't realize this even on her deathbed, then what meaning would it have for Qian Renxue?
Qian Renxue's philosophy of life is to ignore "bad people and bad situations." She doesn't want to waste her time and energy on unnecessary people. She's right.
Tuoba Yan continued, "However, she also suffered a lot. Although she wanted to target me and force me to help her realize her dream, and I also took the papacy from her, I also sympathized with her. Cousin, you may not know, but your father forced himself on her before you were born."
"What?" Qian Renxue stared in disbelief. She was clearly unaware of these inside details.
"She was your father's student. She didn't want to give birth to you, but your father threatened her and forced her to give birth to you in a secret room."
"You, is everything you said true?" Qian Renxue stood there, stunned.
Tuoba Yan nodded. "It's absolutely true. If you don't believe me, you can go to Martial Soul City now and ask your grandfather. He was an insider of the secret chamber incident back then. In a way, you have a misunderstanding about her."
