These contradictory words stunned Meng Yan.
To be honest, she had not interacted with Li Xiaoran for long, but as she got to know her better, she felt that this girl was very extraordinary.
“What do you mean? Don’t you find it contradictory?”
“What’s there to be conflicted about?! There are many things in this world that are either black or white. There will be compromises. I believe that my husband will love someone for the rest of his life, but this doesn’t mean that I can’t withstand the outcome of him not loving me! You’re capable and can earn money to support yourself, so when you get married in the future, are you afraid that your man will be disloyal to you and betray you?” Li Xiaoran looked at Meng Yan as she asked.
After Meng Yan thought about it for a moment, she said, “Why not? I’m afraid of such a thing too!”
To be honest, she was actually afraid of getting married.
She had seen many people in relationships, but very few of them ended up well.
Therefore, right from the beginning, Meng Yan didn’t believe that a man would give her true love.
Li Xiaoran could sense Meng Yan’s emotions, so she deliberated for a moment and asked, “If you don’t have a man, will you be able to live a fullfilling life? Will you be able to survive?”
Meng Yan frpze for a moment before saying, “Of course. I can earn money myself. Even without those d*mn men, I can live a good life!”
“That’s right! Then what are you afraid of?! The worst outcome is that you’ll return to being single and earn money to support yourself. Even if you have a child, you can raise the child with your own abilities. So, what are you worried about?” Li Xiaoran asked.
“If one day, such a good man really appears in front of you and gives you all his love, you should have enough courage to accept it. Even if he changes his mind in the future, as long as you two have once loved each other sincerely, it won’t be a loss. Besides, men and romance aren’t that big of a deal. Even without them, you can still live a carefree life!”
When Meng Yan heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she immediately felt that they made sense, but she was still puzzled.
“Aren’t that big of a deal? How can you get over heartbreak just like that? Many men and women can’t move on after ending relationships!”
Li Xiaoran didn’t deny this. Instead, she said firmly, “So, when women fall in love with a man, they can’t be a hopeless romantic. They have to have their own thoughts and be able to distinguish right from wrong. Even if they encounter betrayal, they can’t get too carried away. Instead, they have to maintain their pride and self-love. Women have to love themselves more no matter when or where! Think about it, if you don’t even feel sorry for yourself, how can you expect others to feel sorry for you?”
“Don’t love a man more than you love yourself. Love yourself more, be independent, don’t rely on a man, and be financially independent. This way, you can deal with all kinds of trouble. Heartbreak is common, but the key is whether you can stand up after being injured!”
No one had ever said such a thing to Meng Yan before.
At this moment, Meng Yan was in a dilemma.
Her experiences since she was young had made her a little disgusted and wary of romantic relationships.
However, she was also a woman who had feelings. She was also attracted to outstanding people.
However, the fear in her heart made her retreat. She didn’t dare to try at all.
Before this, Meng Yan had been suppressing herself.
However, Li Xiaoran’s words seemed to have opened a new door for Meng Yan.
“Meng Yan, there are some things you have to try! Only after you try it will you know if it’s worth it. If you haven’t tried it before, you’ll never know if it’s worth it! Remember my words. Never stop loving just because you’ve been hurt once! The more hurt you are, the more you have to love! Love yourself, love life, and love this world!” Li Xiaoran’s words pointed out a new path for Meng Yan.
When the carriage arrived, Meng Yan and Li Xiaoran had already hit it off.
Zi Zheng, who was following behind, was shocked to see the two of them walking together intimately.
Zi Cheng became impressed by his sister-in-law’s socializing skills.
“This shop is run by a couple that specializes in making some innovative dishes they’re good at. It only serves three tables of customers a day, and you have to make reservations in advance. The people who come here to eat have to be recommended by regular customers. Otherwise, they won’t entertain them at all! I brought you here today, so you can come here yourself in the future! However, if you come here to eat, you have to take care of this family in the future. After all, in the capital, there are many people who cause trouble all day long and bully good people!” Meng Yan introduced as she brought Li Xiaoran into this quiet place.
Li Xiaoran nodded. She didn’t speak, but she agreed with this business model.
Cooking innovative dishes was a special method to earn money.
After Meng Yan sniffed the aroma in the air, she said with a smile, “Uncle Chuan and Aunt Chuan invited me to try the new dishes today. Smell this aroma. It seems that we’re in for a treat this time!”
“Then I’m lucky to be able to taste delicious new dishes!” Li Xiaoran said with a smile.
“That’s right. It can only mean that you’re fated with these new dishes!” Meng
Yan teased.
As they spoke, the three of them walked into the hall of the house.
When a kid saw Meng Yan, he immediately smiled and welcomed her.
“Sister Meng Yan, you came at the right time! The dishes are about to be served. Go to the private room and sit down first. New dishes will be served later! ”
“Then I’ll wait and see! Come, Little Quan, greet Sister Xiaoran! In the future, Sister Xiaoran will also become a guest of your shop. You have to treat her well!” Meng Yan replied as she introduced Li Xiaoran.
“Sister Xiaoran!” Little Quan was a very sensible child, so when he heard Meng Yan’s words, he greeted her with a smile.
Seeing this, Li Xiaoran thought of something and took out a few candies from her wallet.
“Since you’ve called me sister, I naturally have to give you a gift. This is the candy I carry with me. Take it and try it. Take it as a greeting gift from me!”
When Little Quan saw these candies, he immediately grinned.
“Thank you, Sister Xiaoran. My sister and I like candy very much!” With that, Little Quan took the candy and placed it in his wallet carefully. “I’ll eat candy with my sister later!”
When Li Xiaoran heard Little Quan’s words, she simply took out a few more and stuffed them into his wallet..
