63 An EXTRA Chapter (1/2)
(Since I'm literally bombarded with academics, I'll leave you a lesson in life. This is NOT RELATED to the chapter. I only want my readers to enjoy reading and become successful! ;) (I'll be deleting this once I make the actual 63rd chapter.) )
Money is like a woman.
Once you try to court her or hold her close, she'd scream, ”Let me go! Let me go!”
A good woman is like that. She doesn't easily succumb to pleasure but first evaluates you based on who you really are, if you really are worth the risk.
If you don't let her go and prove to her your worth, then she'd stop resisting you with time. Instead, she'd start unconsciously leaning onto you for support and happiness.
You started noticing her change in attitude, so you let her go.
Your change in attitude made her surprised. At first, she didn't know what to do and just stood in that position for some time.
After some time, it finally sank into her, ”He really let me go, huh.”
It made her feel depressed and empty. She didn't know why, but she was not the type to be depressed all her life.
So, she left… She hesitantly took one step at a time…
Then, from your perspective, she vanished, as if all of your memories were but in a blink of an eye.
You stayed in your place, downhearted that she really left. But you still continued doing your own thing, working like a workaholic and believing that sooner or later, the one you love will come back.
Because you loved her (and you knew that she loved you too even though she was too dense to realize that), you controlled your emotions and let her go. You let her be free. (But free in a sense that you're still monitoring her and her happiness. This is called ”wisdom,” my friend.)
As you monitored her, you had your ups and downs.
Sometimes, a man would try to court her and snatch her away from you, so you'd chase him away as if your life was on the line. And at other times, she'd notice you, greet you and chat with you shyly, which would make you blush in return and feel like the happiest man alive.
