Chapter 473: Chapter 447: You are Correct
“I authorized her to do so.” Although Professor Liu was occasionally violent towards Xiao Qian, he deeply respected her and would readily take responsibility for her actions.
“The dream I’ve been nurturing for many years has been ruined by you. What’s even more lamentable is that I don’t even know who to hate.”
Wang Yafei said feebly.
Although he had spoken harshly to Xiao Qian, he felt utterly lost. His ability to think rationally was temporarily impaired. Deep down, he knew his words were inappropriate.
After three days of exhaustion, and just one step away from his dream, he was ruthlessly turned away – such feelings were indescribable.
“Why harbor hatred? There must be a reason for the missed opportunities. You must know what could happen if you entered the company in your current health condition. It’s better to relax and recover now than to be discovered later.”
“Illness… haha…”
Why did he have to be the one who got sick?
Thinking about his relentless preparation, only to be ruthlessly eliminated because of this issue was a bitter pill to swallow.
“I will treat you. Your illness is not that serious. After a few treatments, there is a high possibility of a complete recovery.”
Professor Liu’s words did not provide comfort to Wang Yafei; they only made him feel worse.
What upset him was the confusion underlying his unknown antagonizers and an unexplained depression.
“I don’t need treatment. Isn’t it just that I can’t work on a computer? I’ll go back and farm, be an ordinary person. If I never touch a computer again, I won’t have a relapse. I’m sick of you doctors who hide behind the banner of morality. You never asked for my consent when you took action. Now, I have the right to choose my own life!”
Professor Liu sighed deeply, “Child, you’re still young, you don’t realize, she did all this for your own good—”
If Xiao Qian had told him in advance, Wang Yafei wouldn’t have experienced the raw emotions needed to recall his latent memories, without which he couldn’t be properly treated. By then, he would be a lost cause.
This was the only way, to make him experience the scenario we created.
Wang Yafei’s struggle is a normal response. He believes Xiao Qian breached her professional ethics by telling his office about his condition. However, he failed to realize that if Xiao Qian hadn’t acted this way, he would have been irreparable.
Even if he had been admitted to the office now, how could he avoid using a computer in the long run? At that time, they would have discovered his condition. Worse still, the competition within the company is fierce right now. If his issue was discovered, the shareholders opposing Yu Minglang would not let him off the hook. The consequences could not be foreseen.
His condition was too unique. It wouldn’t be a problem normally, but under stress, just looking at a computer could trigger an episode. If he faints at the wrong time, others may find out, causing losses for the company and putting a regretful full stop to his career.
Professor Liu believed Xiao Qian did nothing wrong. Although, strictly speaking, it indeed violated professional ethics. But from an emotional perspective, if it were her, she would have done the same.
But when a person reaches a certain point, their thinking can easily get stuck. Wang Yafei was stuck at this point.
“You all should leave. I won’t accept treatment, rest assured, I’ll recover over time. The things you morally righteous people worry about won’t happen. I won’t touch computers again…”
Wang Yafei spoke listlessly. He didn’t know exactly what he himself had said. At this moment, he just wanted to escape.
“She genuinely wanted to help you, and you misunderstood her so much. Ignoring your illness does you no good.” Professor Liu said, looking at the lonely figure of Wang Yafei.
All he received was a silent silhouette. A man whose dreams had been shattered refused even to speak.
Professor Liu shook her head, she persisted in her views; Xiao Qian had done nothing wrong.
Xiao Qian and Yu Minglang walked over together.
“Steel Cannon, he refuses to accept treatment. I’ll try speaking to him later. You shouldn’t feel bad, you were correct.”
Professor Liu reiterated her approval of Xiao Qian, who blinked in response.
“I didn’t hear it clearly, could you say it again?”
“You were correct.”
“Still didn’t hear it clearly…”
“You were correct—Wait a minute, are you deliberately playing me?”
Yes, she was teasing him! Xiao Qian simply wanted to hear her mentor’s praise. Upon achieving it, she gave a mischievous smile.
Professor Liu was amused by her. She tapped Xiao Qian’s forehead lightly with a finger, saying, “You little girl, I’ve been worrying for nothing. I thought you would be upset.”
But it turned out she really didn’t care.
What a strong character.
“Why should I be upset? There are plenty of people who dislike me; where does he stand in comparison? The only purpose of my actions was to prevent Yu Minglang from facing troubles in the future.”
Xiao Qian had achieved her goal. Whether Wang Yafei understood her actions or not didn’t matter. The only person she cared about protecting was her boyfriend, Yu Minglang.
“I’ll try to approach him later; he said he doesn’t want to touch a computer anymore and wants to go back to farming.”
“No need.” The one who spoke was Yu Minglang.
“You don’t want this talent?” asked Professor Liu. Based on the feedback she had received earlier, Yu Minglang should highly value Wang Yafei.
“I do, but if he can’t even face this setback, he is not suitable to be my employee. My employees are confronted with far more setbacks than this. If this minor difficulty makes him want to farm, then he’s not fit to be my employee.”
Yu Minglang didn’t make this statement out of sentiment.
He expressed this with genuine responsibility.
Xiao Qian nodded, sharing a knowing look with Yu Minglang.
In fact, this was something Xiao Qian had discussed with Yu Minglang beforehand. Xiao Qian hoped that Yu Minglang could hold another exam for Wang Yafei after he had recovered. If he passed, he could join the company. Talents are hard to come by.
Mental illness is not incurable. Everyone might encounter psychological issues during different periods of their life, just like catching a cold. It’s very common. We shouldn’t deny someone’s talent and efforts because they once had a psychological issue. That’s discrimination.
Yu Minglang agreed to Xiao Qian’s request, but also made his principles clear. An exception could be made, on the condition that Wang Yafei could control his emotions. Yu Minglang wanted to groom him as a very important senior executive, a role that required extreme mental strength and allowed for no deviation.
Higher positions definitely come with stricter standards. That’s why Yu Minglang didn’t allow Professor Liu to approach Wang Yafei. It was also a way of being responsible towards Wang Yafei.
Just like Liu Li was no longer insistent on going out, everyone is suited to different positions. If one is not suitable, it’s best not to force it.
Yu Minglang and Xiao Qian looked at each other. In each other’s eyes, an unspoken understanding was shared.
