After driving for a while, Yigol suddenly asked: “Honey, why do you want to help Rose Campbell so much? I know you’re not the kind of person to have your saint-like feelings overflow easily. The reason you mentioned must be just one of the reasons, right?”
Suri remained silent for a moment, then replied: “Because, she reminds me of my past self.”
This answer made Yigol’s heart ache.
He knew all about Suri’s experiences – although her mother was wealthy and had never treated Suri unfairly regarding money, she had chosen not to spend her family’s money and started working at high school.”
Yigol knew how hard it had been for Suri to start working in society, and he understood very well the feelings of working and studying at the same time.
New people are always the targets of bullying. He, being a man, was no exception, let alone Suri, a girl who was also very beautiful. Yigol couldn’t even begin to imagine how hard it must have been for her to get to where she is today.
After experiencing heartache, it’s easier to empathize with someone who has had similar experiences.
After a while, Suri turned to Yigol: “Honey, do you never have those feelings? When I see her, it’s like seeing a shadow of my past self, so weak, but always trying to survive.”
Yigol shook his head: “I don’t have that feeling. When I was young, I was one of those who had no prospects.”
But Suri was different – she had always set clear goals for herself, wanting to live the life she desired through her own efforts.
In fact, Yigol belonged to the type who simply gave up. But then again, it was mostly due to his lack of self-confidence, as he never believed that he had the talent or the ability to change his destiny.
If it weren’t for the System, he probably would have given up altogether.
However, his words were not taken the same way by Suri.
Suri said: “It’s normal for you to not have that feeling. Your life has been on easy mode since high school. When you worked as a deliveryman, it was just to pass the time, so you never had to worry about pleasing your boss or coworkers.”
Yigol smiled and said nothing.
He couldn’t argue with what Suri said – from her perspective; he belonged to the more fortunate type. He couldn’t deny it himself now, having wanted to experience life before.
Yigol didn’t want to dwell on the heavy topic any longer; talking about the past for Suri must have been very painful.
No friends, no family bonds.
It took her a lot of effort to reach where she is today and to have what she now has.
Yigol changed the subject and said: “Honey, do you think Rose Campbell will use the money as she said, to turn her life around?”
Suri shook her head: “Who knows? People’s choices are made in a blink of an eye. The path she chooses to walk is up to her, but there is also a part of luck.
It’s hard to tell.”
“If she takes a wrong turn in a moment’s thought, then she’s basically done for it. Money is a good thing, but it can also easily lead people astray. When people are penniless, they keep thinking if they had money, they would do this and that, and they feel their self-control is excellent.”
“But once they have money, many people forget their original intentions. There are many people like that, right? So, no one can tell if Rose Campbell will be an exception. What we did was just a momentary decision; what she does next is up to her.”
“Human nature is really hard to fathom, and that’s why I don’t bother paying attention.”
Yigol nodded in agreement: “True. Honey, we’re not doing anything today, so why don’t we pack our things and move to our new home right away?”
Suri nodded: “Okay.”
Thinking about moving, Suri couldn’t help but feel happy – not because of how great the new house was, but because it was a home she and Yigol had chosen together.
When a woman has a sense of belonging, she wants a home. The house they were living in now was enough, but it was something she had bought, and everything in it was the way she liked it. Although it didn’t affect the beautiful memories she had made there with Yigol, it always seemed to be lacking something.
But the new place they bought was different – both their names were on it, and they had chosen and picked it together.
She didn’t know what Yigol thought, but for her, that place felt more like a home for both of them.
When they got home, they immediately started packing.
Yigol’s luggage was minimal, and Suri’s wasn’t much either. All they needed to take were their everyday clothes and documents.
As for other household items, they didn’t plan to take them. That way, whenever they wanted to come back, everything would be ready, and they wouldn’t need to prepare anything.
The new house they bought came fully furnished, but Yigol still brought cooking and kitchen tools from their old home, as well as some daily necessities they might need for the night since there was no place to buy them at that late hour.
They had dinner in their new home.
After the meal, when everything was sorted, they sat on the couch watching TV, with Suri snuggled up in Yigol’s arms.
“Honey,” Yigol suddenly called out.
Suri quickly sat up, on guard, looking at him: ‘You, don’t call me like this, behave yourself, don’t try to do anything bad.”
Yigol couldn’t help but laugh and quickly explained: “Honey, what are you thinking? I just wanted to say that since we bought a new house, shouldn’t we tell my mother and have her come and see it?”
“Not to mention anything else, let’s just have a meal together. If she feels that we’ve changed houses and didn’t tell her, even if she doesn’t say it, she’d feel hurt in her heart.”
“As for my parents, we don’t need to worry about them for now. They don’t even know my situation or that I have a wife.”
Suri hadn’t expected him to talk about this and instantly felt embarrassed; her face turned red.
She said irritably: “If you want to tell her, just tell her! Don’t you go to my mom’s place more often than I do, anyway? You know your way around there better than I do.”
Yigol looked at her and chuckled, his eyes full of meaning. This made Suri feel both embarrassed and agitated.
“I, I’m going to take a shower first; I won’t talk to you anymore.” Suri quickly found an excuse to escape to the bathroom. fearing that if she staved. Yigol
would devour her like a hungry wolf..
