Chapter 376 Mao Jianguo's Love

After receiving applause from the audience, Mao Mao excitedly stepped forward and took her aunt's hand: "Auntie, I like to sing."

"Then sing well."

Chen Qing ruffled his hair.

But after playing at his aunt's house for a week, Mao Mao still didn't have the confidence to face his father. He begged his aunt to come home with him and asked his father not to interfere with his music studies anymore.

While Chen Qing hesitated, He Yuxiang and Xiao Yu were both looking at her expectantly, so she readily agreed: "Let's go!"

Mao Mao grabbed her aunt's hand and stormed home.

Talia and Mao Jianguo have been having conflicts lately because Talia chose a tutor for Mao Mao, but Mao Jianguo is not satisfied. During their argument and cold war, Mao Jianguo also discovered that someone had written a love letter to Talia during the Canton Fair!

He was furious.

The two started arguing.

Talia got tired of arguing and applied to the organization to move into the machinery factory dormitory.

Last year she couldn't even leave the house, but now she went to the Canton Fair with Chen Qing and helped with a lot of things. The factory leaders have realized her value and will definitely be willing to provide her with a place to live.

Because she wanted to move.

Mao Jianguo argued with her again.

During the week that Mao Mao was away from home, the couple had several arguments.

Talia only slightly restrained herself after Mao Mao returned home today.

When Talia saw Chen Qing return with Mao Mao, her eyes lit up, and she instinctively went forward to greet her: "Qing, it's been so long since we last met."

"I've been busy every weekend lately."

Chen Qing has been spending her weekends lately helping Director Lin revise the Women's Federation's proposal.
She originally wrote three stories, but Director Lin later added many more.

Director Lin selected cases from women who frequently come to the Women's Federation to mediate conflicts, hoping that Chen Qing could correct her perspective and better influence her fellow women, and also make the women trust the Women's Federation more.

Chen Qing then made changes.

Sometimes, I would be dragged by the Women's Federation comrades to conduct on-site investigations, which would infuriate me so much that I would go home and write furiously!

Looking at it now, it seems that Mao Jianguo and Talia's family could also be used as source material...

Talia invited Chen Qing inside: "Come on in."

Seeing that her mother was warm towards her aunt, Mao Mao felt more confident. After her aunt sat down, she said to her parents, "I can go to singing lessons, but can you please stop interfering with my singing in the future?"

"I'm your father, can't I control you? You've really gotten bold by going out here!"

Mao Jianguo rolled up his sleeves.

Chen Qing unleashed his sarcasm: "Are you deaf? Didn't you hear Mao Mao discussing something with you?"

Mao Jianguo knew he couldn't win an argument with Chen Qing, so he resorted to his old excuse: "This is my family's business, it's none of your concern!"

Snapped--

Talia slapped Mao Jianguo across the face: "Xiaoqing is my only family member, you better watch yourself!"

In such a vast country as China, Xiao Qing was the most important person to her.

Xiaoqing took her out.

Help her realize her self-worth.

This prevented her from torturing herself every day.

She was utterly disgusted by the slightest bit of rudeness Mao Jianguo showed to Chen Qing!
Mao Jianguo covered his face, furious. "I didn't disrespect her, did I? But she wants to interfere in your son's education. Mao Mao is our only child. If we don't raise him to be successful, what will become of him in the future? Besides, we require him to have good grades. Look at how his grades have improved, and she thinks she has to take care of the child!"

Mao Mao's eyes were slightly vacant.

So all the credit for He Yuxiang's teaching has gone to his father?

"Things aren't like that at all..."

"Shut up! This is an adult conversation, what right do you, a child, have to interrupt!"

Mao Jianguo yelled. Mao Mao's eyes reddened, and she hid behind her aunt.

Talia, exhausted, said, "If you're not satisfied with only one son, you can go find someone else to have a baby with."

"And then you take my son to call someone else 'Dad'!" Mao Jianguo sneered.

Some neighbors saw Chen Qing arrive and noticed that their door was open, so they wanted to see what was going on.

Talia thought he was being unreasonable.

Since he became the director of the research institute, he has been frequently traveling for work and has gradually become arrogant, making it difficult for her to even have a proper conversation with him.

Mao Mao hid behind her aunt and secretly wiped away her tears.

He was always scared whenever his parents argued.

The roars were like punches hitting him, very frightening.

Chen Qing originally didn't want to get involved in other people's family problems because "even an upright official can't settle family disputes," but since she was already here, and seeing Mao Jianguo's anger, she decided to make herself feel better first, no matter what.

"Director Mao is truly impressive. He endures hardship for his wife and goes to great lengths to raise his only son. He is an exceptional man."

She clapped her hands.

More and more people gathered at the entrance of Mao Jianguo's house.

Hearing Chen Qing say that seemed a bit strange, but upon reflection, it did seem to make sense.

As the director of the research institute, Mao Jianguo is devoted to his wife and has only one child, which makes him a truly good man.

Then, Chen Qing changed the subject: "I don't know who it was that prevented my wife from returning to China and reuniting with her family. I don't know who it was that coveted the prestige of the villa and locked his wife inside, almost causing her to commit suicide."

"I don't!"

Mao Jianguo refuted this.

"No? You were living perfectly well in the tenement, why did you move to this little villa?" Chen Qing said with a mocking smile, "Because you care about your image. Your wife is a foreigner, and you only managed to get into this little villa because of that. You think you're so great? Everyone would say that Mao Zedong was capable."

Everyone listened.

It seems true.

At the time, everyone thought that Mao Jianguo's wife was a foreigner, but he was able to come to the villa by his own abilities, so he must have some skills.

Talia closed her eyes.

Mao Mao was taken aback: "So Dad can actually not come to the little villa?"

The small villa was very close to the machinery factory and was a symbol of status.

People passing by would look at you with envy if they saw you walking towards the villa.

It's really hard for most people to resist this temptation.

Mao Jianguo was no exception.

At that time, he could only come to the small villa, and he came excitedly.

He also had regrets during that time, because Talia felt too oppressed living in the villa.

But he was in the prime of his career. If he suddenly moved out of the villa, the director who was fighting with him would definitely mock him, saying things like he was being rejected, and would use this as an excuse to suppress him.

He thought he should just bear with it for now, and things would be better once he became the director.

Therefore, he worked desperately.

What was his motivation?
It's all for this family!

How come he seems selfish and self-serving in Chen Qing's words?
"Don't talk nonsense!"

"How did I say anything out of line? Director Mao's love is really interesting. Your love is to torment a person. You love Talia, so you want to lock her up and make her your canary. She can suffer, she can go crazy, but she can never be happy."

You enjoy the process because you are her savior. During this time, you are her only one, and you show that you love her very much, giving her everything you have, but you can't give her freedom.

So when I show up to save her, you'll be jealous of me.

Do you know what? Your love is really narrow-minded!
