Chapter Seventy-One: Captives of Desire

It's similar to heart-wrenching family affection and a broken friendship.

In love, Zhuo Qun also carries a heavy emotional baggage.

Because originally his love affair with Connie had already entered the substantive stage of male marriage and female marriage.

is waiting to enter the palace of marriage and achieve a fairytale-like ending.

And in every way, Connie is exactly the wife he is looking for, his ideal good wife and mother.

But at the last moment of this love story, something went wrong.

Because just when Zhuo Qun begged Nian to help him solve the trouble of the company and personal accounts being frozen, and planned to make a second power transaction.

Unexpectedly, in addition to the 100 million yuan service fee, the annual general manager also offered him an additional price.

If he wants to, he must give up Connie and marry the daughter of a high-ranking official surnamed Lin.

There is no doubt that at the first time, of course, he wanted to refuse such unreasonable conditions and stick to his love.

I can't help but say that Mr. Nian's rhetoric is quite demagogic.

"Hey, don't get me wrong, I'm for your good, really no malice. I gotta say, your girlfriend is a rare good girl, she is excellent in everything, and to be honest, I envy you. But you don't understand that if you marry a girl who has worked in the service industry, you will never be a real superior person. โ€

"Don't believe that people are equal. It's stupid, our world is full of hierarchies, but there has never been any fairness. The only criterion that must be acknowledged is that society is pyramidal, and the higher you go, the fewer people there are. It is always the majority that serves the minority as the cornerstone. โ€

"So how can you expect people who are born superior to others to treat your girlfriend as equals? Your wife, if people recognize them as a flight attendant who served them, such a joke will make you a clown. โ€

To put it bluntly, she does a job like a hotel manager or maรฎtre d'รชtre, which she may find decent and pleasing to the eye. But in the eyes of customers, it will always be inferior. No one says it, but they think so in their hearts. If you really marry this girl, you will be finished, and it will be difficult for you to gain the affirmation and recognition of the upper class. โ€

What's more, on the other hand, the real society will never be without resistance. There are always people who are jealous of your talent and think that you pose a threat. That's why you're in trouble. And the higher you climb in the future, the greater the resistance. This is true even overseas. As long as you take the lead, you will be targeted. โ€

Of course, you need the right to protect your future career. That's what I do, but it's only for a short period of time. You can't come to me for everything, can you, so the best thing to do is to get what you lack through marriage. โ€

"If you marry a girl from the Lin family, it's completely different. The power of the Lin family is in the financial field, which is equivalent to giving you a talisman made of gold. Your future business in finance and securities will always be unimpeded. Some important big people will also take care of you and give you face because you are the son-in-law of the Lin family. โ€

"Having said all this, don't you understand! A marriage makes people struggle for decades less, and it is not nonsense! As men, of course, career comes first, and only with a career can we have wealth, status, dignity, and women. Without a career, even what you already have will be lost. What's more, with a talent like you, it's impossible not to do big things. They often want to do it as quickly as possible. Life is too short to wait, you must understand this truth!"

Speaking of which, Mr. Nian found that Zhuo Qun wanted to speak and stopped, and he was obviously a little moved.

It's just that I'm still struggling with something, so I haven't made up my mind for a long time.

He pondered it again, and then changed his angle to persuade him.

"Let's be clear, I know you can't bear your current girlfriend. But I just didn't let you marry her, and I didn't let you give up on her. You know, marriage and feelings can be two different things. You can keep her as a lover. Secretly how to enjoy and how to enjoy. It's not actually a conflict. โ€

"Men, the red flag at home does not fall, and the colorful flags flutter outside the house. It's a normal thing. It's not that people like us can't afford to support women, who doesn't have three wives and four concubines? Just remember that it is very important to maintain decency. As long as the boundaries are crossed and an irreparable situation is created. โ€

"What else do you have to think of? Are you worried that your girlfriend won't accept it? Rest assured, fame is far less important to most women than money. You can make up for it financially. Besides, if that girl really loves you, she should also be considerate of your difficulties and make some sacrifices for you. Are you right?"

"What do you think I'm for? I really want to introduce you to the real big guys. Then we will hand over billions or tens of billions of funds to you to operate, so that you can become the No. 1 financial predator in China. But I admire you and trust you, but those big people may not. For them, personal competence is the least important. They only like what they can grasp. A good family background comes first, and if not, you must have a reliable marriage......"

That's it, being bewitched by the head of the year, succumbing to the vile desires of the heart.

Zhuo Qun didn't think too much about it, and said things to Connie that hurt her deeply.

At that time, he naively thought that as long as he ordered a yacht for Connie and named it after her, he could have both fish and bear the cake as long as he had the idea.

But what he didn't expect was that things were not at all what he expected.

The sudden change in his attitude and the betrayal of his emotions are something that Connie can never accept, let alone make up for it with material things.

After repeated crying and arguing, supplication, and all attempts to win him back to no avail.

Connie collapsed because her life was instantly shattered.

When he was alone, he chose to lie in their bed and commit suicide by taking sleeping pills.

Fortunately, Zhuo Qun left important documents that day, and returned to the hotel shortly after leaving the house, which saved Connie's life.

What Zhuo Qun didn't expect was that it was just three days later.

When he prepares a cart of roses and plans to go to the hospital to pick up Connie.

It was found that Connie had left without saying goodbye, leaving only a letter crumpled by tears.

As for the content of the letter, there is only one point, which is to ask Zhuo Qun to stop trying to find her.

Yes, Connie was saved, but not given a new lease of life.

Because her emotions and heart were taken out by Zhuo Qun, she was coldly thrown on the ground by him and kept trampling on her feet, and she was completely shattered.

This made her no longer have a passion for life and no longer believe in love.

But she also made a statement, saying that she would not die again.

Because she still has parents and relatives, and she has clearly realized that for the sake of Zhuoqun, it is not worth it.

She even said that she was a little glad that she didn't really marry Zhuo Qun.

Because she really can't imagine how she should muster up the courage to live if she is abandoned by Zhuo Qun when she is old and yellow after marriage......

This letter, no doubt, was written by Connie at a time when her emotional health was doubly tormented.

The pain expressed by the beautiful font jumping between the double-line horizontal paper made Zhuo Qun's heart tremble.

Only then did he realize that in fact, he had never understood the true meaning of love, and he had not really understood this girl who was willing to die for loving him deeply.

Connie is fond of material things, but values the spiritual side far more than the material.

She is serious about love and is willing to pay for it.

But precisely because she is a girl with self-respect and self-love, she will never accept the identity of a lover.

On the contrary, his understanding of love only stays at the superficial vows and the romance of material accumulation.

His love is mixed with more "narcissistic" plots, just using the reactions of the opposite sex to prove his charm and ability.

To put it bluntly, he is just a captive of desire, not a believer in love.

Naturally, they don't deserve this pure love.

It's late, it's all late.

Even if he tried to save it, he couldn't do it.

Because Connie's departure was a deliberate decision.

In order to prevent Zhuo Qun from coming to her again, she not only moved out of the house that Zhuo Qun bought for her with her parents, but also resigned and left the airline.

There was no way to find her whereabouts.

And a few days later, she asked Su Jihong to bring back all the expensive things that Zhuo Qun gave her.

Jewelry, car keys, house books, credit cards, bank cards, mobile phones, clothes, shoes, and bags are not pulled, but are pulled by the moving company's car......

So although at that time, Su Jihong scolded Zhuo Qun, "You son of a bitch".

And poured a pot of hot coffee on his head and face.

He couldn't show his anger, and he couldn't get the bodyguards to interfere.

Because the guilt and shame in his heart are completely involuntary......
