"Aren't you afraid of ruining your future?"
"I'm just a scholar, the future is not important."
After all, compared to the great undertakings of the Mei Family, what does the future of a mere scholar count for?
If only Li Mu treated Mei Qiong a little better, letting Du Shirun know that Mei Qiong would still have support even after leaving him, he would definitely not entangle with Mei Qiong, for they were on different paths.
The love between scholars and wealthy young ladies has rarely ended well, whether it's Liang Shanbo and Zu Yingtai or Romeo and Juliet.
Du Shirun was very clear about this.
Therefore, at this moment, he still maintained the demeanor a gentleman should have.
But ironically.
Li Mu was too much.
She treated Mei Qiong like a tool for climbing higher.
She devastated her to this extent.
