Chapter 900 Just About Love
Chapter 900 Just About Love
Chen Jin called to say that she was also pregnant, just over a month along.
"I took some time to get checked out, and they said that with my current physical condition, it's still okay to get pregnant, but if I delay any longer, it will probably be difficult to have a baby."
Chen Jin isn't stupid. The fact that she can still get pregnant at her age is probably related to the Loyalty Pill that Xia Ran gave her.
So she followed Xia Ran's advice and started dating a tall, handsome third-year graduate student.
He's handsome and sunny, comes from a well-off family, and his family is involved in politics.
Originally, she wanted to find someone around her age, but she couldn't get over the psychological hurdle of finding someone too young.
After meeting several peers who were reasonably well-off, I didn't feel very good about them.
Either they have too much scheming in their eyes, or they are too calculating, or they have too much trouble at home; none of these make them feel very comfortable.
After thinking it over, I decided it would be better to learn from Xia Ran, and fortunately, the result was not bad.
Xia Ran was overjoyed after hearing this, "That's great! You've finally figured it out. We need to be kinder to ourselves."
To be honest, you handled this very well; you should have done it a long time ago.
We work so hard to earn so much money so that we can live a better and more fulfilling life.
Given a choice, I'd definitely choose a young, handsome guy. Who would choose those older, less attractive men when there are younger options available?
Chen Jin: "Your words are still so direct and to the point, leaving no room for argument. Does your boyfriend's family know you two are dating?"
"I know. I met my silly dog's grandfather when I went back last time. I didn't meet the others because it was too much trouble, but they know that we're dating."
I did talk to my silly dog's mom and grandma on the phone, and so far it seems to be going well; we're getting along quite well.
What's wrong? Don't you know how to face the other person's parents?
"Yes, a little. After all, the age gap between us is too big, and it would be hard for parents to accept that."
Just thinking about it makes me anxious; I don't know how to handle it.
Xia Ran: "You're worrying unnecessarily. What are you so worried about? Your current thinking is wrong and has a problem."
You're just dating and don't plan to get married, so there's no need to meet his parents.
You're just using someone else's sperm. Remember to constantly remind yourself that you're just dating and that you're just using someone else's sperm.
Don't forget your main purpose: to produce an heir, an heir, and an heir again.
Don't dwell on things you shouldn't think about, and absolutely don't get involved in things you shouldn't get involved in. Whether the other party's parents agree or disagree is none of your business.
You're just having a relationship with someone, don't add too much drama or burden to yourself.
Always remember that you're just having a relationship, not aiming for marriage.
Since it's a romantic relationship, try to avoid investing too much emotion and energy in your partner's family.
Unless the other person's family is genuinely nice and truly accepts and approves of you, don't pay any attention to them.
If the other party's parents are easy to talk to, just agree to let them come and see your child. If they are difficult, just refuse to acknowledge them.
Remember, you are not their daughter-in-law, and you are not within their many requirements and frameworks for daughters-in-law.
The decision-making power in this matter rests with you, not with the other party, and certainly not with their parents.
However, whatever you do, don't get married. Once you get married, the nature of the situation changes, and you'll be burdened with many more constraints, and you'll have to consider many more things.
Even if common-law marriage exists at this time, in the eyes of ordinary people, as long as you don't get a marriage certificate or have a wedding, the chain of marriage won't be around your neck.
It's most advantageous for you to only date and not get married, so that no one can take advantage of you.
Once you enter into marriage, reality will cripple you; you can't do something so foolish.
Upon hearing Xia Ran's words, Chen Jin instantly understood. "That's right," she said, "I understand now. I misunderstood before."
You've trapped yourself, wasting your time worrying and anxiety. You're much more insightful.
Xia Ran continued, "Of course, you also have to be prepared that the other person might change their mind at any time."
If he doesn't betray you and wants to live a stable and honest life with you, then you should live a good life with him.
If the other person has ulterior motives, just kick them to the curb. Don't hesitate, don't dwell on it, and don't be sad. If you miss this one, the next one will be better, more handsome, and younger.
Also, don't approach this relationship from a woman's perspective; learn to approach it from a man's perspective.
Don't confine yourself to the position of a vulnerable group like women; instead, see yourself as a powerful woman in control of the whole situation.
Think more about what a qualified and outstanding female leader should do, and then do that.
Don't feel embarrassed or ashamed about the age difference, and don't feel inferior to the other person.
Men with money keep mistresses, so isn't it only natural for us to find a young and handsome younger man?
Besides, we're both single and have only found one person, so we're not promiscuous, which is already very ethical.
Seriously, our actions have surpassed those of 99% of men in the world.
Chen Jin laughed on the other end of the phone, "I will think carefully about what you said."
Actually, I'm aware of what you're saying. A man's words are unreliable, and vows of eternal love are even more so.
I didn't expect to grow old with him/her; the future is too far away, and there are too many variables and uncertainties.
"Hmm. A woman's words can't be trusted either. Anyone can say sweet words; as long as they want something from the other person, they'll say them."
I do believe in men's vows of eternal love; at least for the moment a man says them, they are credible.
But I only believe what he says about this moment, I only enjoy the present, and I only focus on the present.
It's enough to make ourselves happy for that one moment when we hear it; there's no reason why a casual wish should last a lifetime.
Just remember to forget what you've heard, and try to leave no trace.
"Makes sense."
Xia Ran emphasized, "Yes, and also, men are meant to be used and slept with, not used to annoy you."
If anything is found to be wrong, it must be rectified promptly. This is a principle and a core issue that must never be forgotten.
You already have money and power; all you're missing now is a bed warmer and a husband who will occasionally help you take care of the kids.
We must always remember our original intention, so we shouldn't have too high expectations of the other party. Without expectations, there will be no disappointment.
Always remember that what you're asking for is a child; all you initially wanted was a child.
Xia Ran couldn't help but say a few more words, just in case Chen Jin was tricked or hurt in the future.
"Okay, I've got it. Your remarks are still as bold as ever."
Xia Ran: "Looking at male-female relationships from a broader perspective, it's really just a simple matter."
When you look at a problem from the perspective of the situation itself, it appears as a problem; but when you step back and look at it from a different perspective, it appears as nothing at all.
"Since we had our children around the same time, they can be playmates in the future."
Chen Jin said helplessly, "I would like the two families' children to be playmates."
But you can only stay in China for a few days a year, and you can't even see your own people. What's the point of having fun?
Did you give birth in China or abroad? If you gave birth abroad, you could get a green card there.
Xia Ran: "When I go back to China to give birth, almost everyone here in the country recommends a natural birth, but I want to have a C-section."
In other countries, there is no concept of postpartum care; postpartum care is essential and must be done properly.
This involves one's health for the rest of one's life, so it cannot be taken lightly.
