Chapter 483 Depression and Anxiety
Liang Qunfeng's face turned ugly. He was silent for a moment, then he slowly said, "Old Chen, you are right. I really didn't think it through. I just thought Chen Yang was a good girl, and my nephew was also very good, so I wanted to bring them together. But I didn't expect it would have such a big impact on Tong Wei and Lulu."
Chen Yanshi looked at Liang Qunfeng and said in a serious tone: "Secretary Liang, marriage is not a joke. We cannot make decisions based on impulse and ideas. We must consider the happiness of our children and cannot bring them unnecessary trouble and pain because of our own selfishness."
Liang Qunfeng nodded and said, "Old Chen, you are right. I was too impulsive just now. I will seriously consider your words and will not easily match Chen Yang and my nephew again."
Chen Yanshi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Secretary Liang, I know you are doing this for the good of the children. But we must also respect their choices and wishes. Let them decide their own lives and happiness."
Liang Qunfeng sighed and said, "Old Chen, it's easy for you to say that. But as parents, we always hope that our children can live well. Sometimes, we can't help but make some decisions for them, hoping that they can avoid some detours."
Chen Yanshi shook his head and said, "Secretary Liang, we can't live for the children. They have their own thoughts and judgments. We should trust them and let them face the challenges and difficulties in life on their own. Only in this way can they truly grow and mature."
Liang Qunfeng was silent, and he fell into deep thought. He knew that what Chen Yanshi said made sense, but he was still a little worried and uneasy. He was worried that Chen Yang would not live well alone, and he was also worried that Qi Tongwei and Liang Lu's marriage would be affected.
After a while, Liang Qunfeng looked up, looked at Chen Yanshi and said, "Old Chen, you are right. We should respect the choices of children. But I still hope you can pay more attention to Chen Yang and let her know that we are all doing this for her own good."
Chen Yanshi nodded and said, "Secretary Liang, don't worry. I will pay more attention to Chen Yang. But I also hope you can pay more attention to Tongwei and Lulu, and let them know your support and understanding."
Liang Qunfeng sighed and said, "Old Chen, you are right. We are all parents and we all hope that our children can be happy. But sometimes, our love may become a kind of pressure, making children feel constrained and unfree."
Chen Yanshi looked at Liang Qunfeng and said, "Secretary Liang, we must learn to let go and let the children pursue their own happiness. We can't always treat them as children. We must believe that they are capable of handling their own affairs."
Liang Qunfeng nodded and said, "Old Chen, you are right. I will reflect on my behavior and will not interfere in the lives of children easily in the future."
Chen Yanshi smiled and said, "Secretary Liang, we are all doing this for the good of the children. As long as we can show more understanding and support, the children will definitely live a happy life."
At this time, Chen Yanshi looked at Liang Qunfeng, with a smile on his face, but his heart was full of thoughts. He really didn't think highly of Liang Qunfeng's nephew, and in his opinion, that boy was definitely not a good match. Chen Yanshi recalled some rumors he had heard about Liang Qunfeng's nephew, and his behavior always revealed a sense of impetuousness and utilitarianism. How could such a person bring happiness to Chen Yang?
Chen Yanshi sighed in his heart. He knew that he couldn't be too obvious. After all, Liang Qunfeng was also a well-known figure, and he couldn't easily offend him. But when he thought that Chen Yang might be troubled by this matter, his heart was filled with worry.
"How can Liang Qunfeng be so foolish? He doesn't even investigate his nephew properly, but he just wants to match him up with someone else." Chen Yanshi thought to himself, "But what can I do? If I refuse directly, I'm afraid it will hurt the relationship; if I don't refuse, I'm worried that Chen Yang will be dragged into unnecessary trouble."
Chen Yanshi's eyes revealed a hint of helplessness, and he began to reflect on his position in this matter. He felt that as a father, he had the responsibility to protect Chen Yang's happiness, but he could not interfere with her choice too harshly. He had to find a suitable way to let Liang Qunfeng understand his attitude without making the situation awkward.
At the same time, Liang Qunfeng's heart was not at peace. Although he nodded and agreed with Chen Yanshi's words on the surface, he actually had his own plans in his mind. He knew that Chen Yanshi's attitude towards his nephew was not positive, but he did not want to give up. In his opinion, his nephew did have many advantages, and as long as he had the opportunity to meet Chen Yang, he would definitely change her mind.
"This Chen Yanshi is too stubborn." Liang Qunfeng thought to himself, "What's wrong with my nephew? He is talented and promising, and is more than enough for Chen Yang. Chen Yanshi is just too conservative and unwilling to try new possibilities."
Liang Qunfeng decided to find another opportunity to talk to Chen Yang and let her know about his nephew's strengths. He believed that as long as Chen Yang was willing to give his nephew a chance, he would definitely discover his good points. He also knew that this matter could not be rushed, and it had to be done step by step, without putting pressure on Chen Yang.
Chen Yang didn't know what the two elders were thinking at this time. She was still confused about her future and didn't know how to choose.
Chen Yang sat alone in the room, her thoughts tangled like a tangled mess. Her heart was full of contradictions and entanglements, and she felt extremely confused about her future choices.
On the one hand, she really didn't want to have too much contact with Qi Tongwei because of marrying Liang Lu's cousin. Although the past relationship was over, those memories would come to her mind from time to time. She was afraid that when she saw Qi Tongwei again, she would have complicated emotions in her heart, and she was also worried that such a relationship would bring unnecessary troubles to each other. When she thought about living under the same roof in the future, she felt extremely depressed and uneasy.
"Can I really face Qi Tongwei calmly?" Chen Yang asked herself in her heart, "How can I easily erase the past? If I marry Liang Lu's cousin, how can I face Qi Tongwei and Liang Lu in the future?" The more she thought about it, the more upset she felt, as if she was trapped in a dilemma from which she could not escape.
However, on the other hand, she had to face the reality of her growing age. People around her seemed to remind her, intentionally or unintentionally, that she was no longer young and could not stay single any longer. She could feel the pressure from society and the strange looks from others, as if she had become a person forgotten by time. She was afraid of being made a laughing stock by others and of the fate of ending up alone.
