297 Heart to Heart

Lin Suisui was a little confused by Zhou Ningqian’s question and froze for a moment before she asked curiously, “Why don’t you ask Mr. Song about this?”

As far as she knew, no matter how busy Song Minghui was, he would visit Zhou Ningqian every day.

Wouldn’t it be better to ask him about these things? Why did she have to beat around the bush and look for her?

“Ask Mr. Song?” Zhou Ningqian looked up with a puzzled expression. “Can I ask him such a thing?”

“Why not?” Lin Suisui was puzzled.

“I’ve asked my husband about this before, but he’s unwilling to tell me more about it.” Zhou Ningqian lowered her eyes slightly. After a long time, she said dejectedly, “Besides, there are some things that will just make everyone unhappy if we talk about them.”

Zhou Ningqian didn’t explain further, but Lin Suisui could understand her helplessness.

Although Song Minghui was the heir of Marquis Beining’s ministry, he had actually been suppressed by his father and brother. Marquis Beining’s ministry doted on his concubines and killed his wife. Naturally, she didn’t have an easy time in the residence.

Under such extreme pressure, the couple was in a precarious situation. How could they be willing to talk things out?

Because no matter what they talked about, it would only make each other feel even more depressed and there was no possibility of turning things around. Therefore, it wasn’t surprising that things had become like this over time.

“I think since Mr. Song already has plans to change things, you can try to negotiate with him again.” After Lin Suisui thought about it for a moment, she advised Zhou Ningqian.

“But if he’s unhappy…”

Zhou Ningqian was still a little hesitant. Everything that had happened previously had too deep of an impact on her. Although she had sensed the change in Song Minghui recently…

“How will you know the outcome if you don’t try?” Lin Suisui looked at Zhou Ningqian as she said very seriously, “Since you guys are husband and wife, you have to support each other and understand each other no matter what.

You guys aren’t guests that will go your separate ways tomorrow!

You guys are going to be husband and wife for the rest of your lives.

If you guys can’t communicate with each other and understand each other, how long can you guys last?”

Speaking of which, she actually wasn’t very good at dealing with such relationships. She was just coming up with ideas on the spot.

“But I don’t even know if we have a future together.” Zhou Ningqian lowered her head in frustration and raised her hand to touch her abdomen. “I’ve always known that my husband is a good person.

But he has too many things to protect. Family, parents, brothers. By the time it’s my turn and the child’s, there’ll be almost nothing left. Yes, he did say that he wanted to change things, but after being let down too many times, I don’t know if I can trust him anymore.”

“You don’t like him anymore?” Lin Suisui tilted her head and looked at Zhou Ningqian in surprise.

For so many days, she had heard all kinds of good things about Song Minghui from Zhou Ningqian. Moreover, whenever she mentioned Song Minghui, the adoration in her eyes didn’t seem to be fake.

Therefore, she probably did like Song Minghui.

In that case, why…

“I like him, but it’s because I like him that I want to leave him.” Zhou Ningqian forced a smile. “If I stay with him any longer, perhaps I’ll end up hating him.

Therefore, instead of waiting until then, it’s better to leave early on. That way, I can still…”

“I don’t think that’s a good idea.” Before Zhou Ningqian could finish speaking, Lin Suisui couldn’t help but interrupt her. “I don’t think you’re solving the problem. You’re just escaping.

If your husband still intends to maintain the status quo, it’s understandable that you want to leave!

However, since he has already begun to change, if you still can’t let go of him, why don’t you work hard to change things with him?

I know that life in the ministry has caused you a lot of trouble and pain in the past. Most of this is your husband’s fault, but you’re not completely blameless either!

If you had expressed your dissatisfaction directly from the beginning, instead of being passive and enduring it, and had let him know that you were unhappy and dissatisfied, perhaps the two of you wouldn’t have been aggrieved for so long.”

Lin Suisui recalled her interaction with Lu Ze. It seemed that if there was anything between them, they would always say it on the spot. There were not so many twists and turns.

Therefore, Lin Suisui didn’t understand. Since there was dissatisfaction or conflict, she had to say it out loud to resolve it! Wouldn’t hiding it make things more and more complicated?

It wasn’t like they didn’t have mouths!

“I was afraid that I would make things difficult for him.” Zhou Ningqian was rendered speechless by Lin Suisui’s words. It took her a long time to come back to her senses and explain, “At first, I was afraid that he would be caught in the middle. I thought that it wasn’t a big deal and that it would pass after I endured it for a while. However, later on, things became more and more unbearable. Then, I… I didn’t know how to tell him anymore.”

Zhou Ningqian wasn’t someone who wouldn’t listen to other people’s advice.

Although Lin Suisui’s words sounded different from the advice she usually heard, it had to be said that she felt unprecedentedly touched.

Previously, after her friends and mother found out about her situation in Marquis Beining’s ministry, they basically advised her to be magnanimous, forgiving, and understanding. They said that as the future Madam Beining and the daughter of the Song family, she had to be magnanimous!

They said that she couldn’t ruin her reputation for the sake of material goods…

They said that what she was experiencing now was just temporary grievance and when she became Madam Beining in the future, she would naturally be able to come to terms with it.

However, as the days passed, she felt that her future became more and more hopeless!

However, Lin Suisui’s words enlightened her and allowed her to see what the problem she had to face and resolve was.

“Think about it carefully. When Mr. Song comes back, tell him that there’s nothing that can’t be resolved. If you find that there’s still no result even after trying, it won’t be too late to leave then.”

As Lin Suisui spoke, she stood up and looked at Zhou Ningqian with a smile. “This way, no matter what the outcome is in the future, at least you’ve done your best. Even if you and Mr. Song separate in the future, whenever you recall this matter, you won’t feel regret over not doing your best.”
