Chapter 682: Chapter 0682: You must have a good relationship with your husband
Gazing at Qiu Ruoxi crying on top of her, Wang Ma’s heart was filled with pain.
She had taken care of Qiu Ruoxi for many years, and in her heart, she had long since regarded Qiu Ruoxi as her own child. Now seeing Qiu Ruoxi in such a state, how could her heart not be affected?
But matters of the heart are something outsiders simply cannot interfere with.
All outsiders can do is to advise or guide.
"Miss, it’s okay, it’s okay, the young master is definitely not that kind of person!" Wang Ma gently patted Qiu Ruoxi, just like comforting a baby!
Under Wang Ma’s guidance, Qiu Ruoxi gradually stopped crying, but her eyes were still red, and the look of misery on her face did not lessen at all.
"Wang Ma, will he... will he leave?" Qiu Ruoxi asked with a still-somewhat-choked voice.
"Miss, do you think if the young master were going to leave, he would have stayed until now?" Wang Ma softly spoke, "If he wanted to leave, the young master would probably have left a long time ago, he wouldn’t wait until now to go!"
"Moreover, Miss, can’t you see that actually, the young master cares a lot about you." Wang Ma, like an expert in love, said to Qiu Ruoxi, "It’s just that both you and the young master are not good at expressing your feelings, which is why it’s always been like this!"
"Your pride, your dominance, make the young master, even if he has any ideas, afraid to speak to you about them, and hasn’t it always been you who has the upper hand over the young master?"
"Whatever you say, the young master has never objected, and has always listened to you."
"Miss, the young master is a good man, really, although the young master may be a bit flirtatious now, but think about it, the young master is in his prime, in his twenties, every day guarding by your side, you, such a delicate, flower-like beauty, but he can’t do anything, what can he do?"
"He can only go out to drink and seek the company of women, after all, he’s in his twenties, he needs to satisfy his physical needs!"
Qiu Ruoxi did not utter a word but listened seriously to every single word, every letter that Wang Ma said!
"Miss, think about it, if you weren’t so cold to the young master usually, showed him a bit more care, gave him the chance to know you better, to share a room, would he still go out and fool around?"
"Sometimes, a man is like a child; he needs to be scolded when it’s time to scold, and when it’s time to coax him, you should also coax him. Don’t scold him every day without knowing to coax; this will only drive you two apart!"
"Also, every man has his dignity. Can he feel comfortable in his heart when you are constantly condescending?" Wang Ma gently said, "Miss, I know you want the young master to become an elite in the business field!"
"But every person has their own thoughts and life philosophies, what you want doesn’t necessarily represent what the young master wants!"
"Miss, don’t blame this old woman for speaking too much. Look at you; you’re busy with work every day. Since you and the young master got married, have you two ever gone on a date together? Gone out for a meal together?"
As she spoke, Wang Ma sighed lightly, "You’ve always put work first, all your thoughts are on work, constantly neglecting the young master. How can the young master not go out and indulge in pleasures?"
After hearing Wang Ma’s words, Qiu Ruoxi suddenly felt as if she was utterly at fault.
But she also had to admit that what Wang Ma said was the truth.
She had always been busy with work, never going out shopping or on a date with Ye Xunhuan, even the only time they watched a movie and went shopping was a reluctant choice!
Am I really that bad?
For a moment, Qiu Ruoxi began to reflect on herself.
"Miss, marriage is actually a collaboration. In this partnership, both sides must learn to be considerate, understanding, and even give more while complaining less, which will reduce many arguments and dissatisfaction."
"To achieve happiness is actually quite easy, it all depends on whether both can accommodate and understand each other. In a marriage, the two people are like the gears and chain on a bicycle tire, constantly adapting. Perhaps, replacing with new gears and chain might make the bike go faster, but one will never again find the joy of driving for the first time. Often, the prime culprits that push a marriage to the brink of collapse are none other than the couple themselves!" Wang Ma spoke again, "Miss, you don’t feel comfortable now seeing the young master with another woman, but it’s not too late. At least the two of you haven’t reached an irreparable point!"
"If it really comes to the moment of separation, only then do I realize how much I care about him. By that time, no matter what I say or do, it’s too late!"
"Miss, you still have time; there’s still a chance!"
Slowly, Qiu Ruoxi turned her gaze towards Wang Ma and asked softly, "Wang Ma, do I really still have an opportunity?"
"Of course, you do!" Wang Ma declared confidently. "Miss, you are even prettier than those movie stars. Just pout a little, and the young master will surely be smitten!"
"Can that really work?"
Qiu Ruoxi was not incapable of acting spoiled; she had done it before when Qiu Shuihan and Xiahou Yuzhu were around.
Even though it made Qiu Ruoxi feel somewhat disgusted, something she could hardly bear, she saw no other choice!
"Of course, acting spoiled is a woman’s best weapon!" Wang Ma reassured. "Don’t worry, Miss!"
"Will he come back?"
"The young master will definitely come back!" Wang Ma spoke gently. "But, Miss, you must not show him a long face, and if you do, it can’t be for too long!"
"Playing hard to get, is that it?"
Wang Ma nodded and slowly a smile emerged on her face. "Exactly, treat the young master nicer in the future. Even if he goes out and indulges himself, he will probably feel incredibly guilty in his heart!"
"And Miss, don’t forget, you are his wife, with a natural advantage. No matter what kind of woman appears by the young master’s side, they all have their fears of you!"
"Is that so?"
"Could I possibly lie to you!" Wang Ma, seeing Qiu Ruoxi return to normal, couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief inwardly: "They are not the young master’s wife, how could they not be afraid?"
"Also, Miss, look at those palace drama shows on TV, which of the concubines isn’t afraid of the empress?"
Qiu Ruoxi thought about it, and it seemed that there was some truth to it!
"Wang Ma, I know what to do now!"
"That’s great!" Wang Ma looked at Qiu Ruoxi’s still somewhat haggard cheeks and said, "Miss, opportunities are meant to be seized, men are meant to be held onto!"
"The young master is a good man, and if you miss out on him, you will really regret it!"
A good man?
Qiu Ruoxi didn’t know if Ye Xunhuan qualified as a good man, and if one were to judge by his lifestyle, he was certainly nothing close to a good man.
But from other aspects, he definitely counted as a good man!
"Wang Ma, you and your husband must have a good relationship, right?" Qiu Ruoxi asked, tilting her head.
In her heart, Wang Ma’s deep understanding of marriage meant she must have a good relationship with her own husband.
Surprised by Qiu Ruoxi’s question, Wang Ma’s expression immediately turned somewhat ugly.
