ââFourth, she will close herself off while spitting sarcastic remarks, knowingly or unknowingly.ââ
It seemed to be like this.
ââShe will compare herself with another woman.ââ
He stroked his chin thoughtfully. The questioning words she had spoken with puffy eyes reverberated in his head once more. âIf I belong to you, then what about you? Do you belong Mu Wanrou?â
Erm...
ââShe will feel down, becoming broken as she weeps bitterly.ââ
His subordinate listed off all the responses that a jealous woman would often show.
Most of them fit his womanâs previous actions.
That woman blacklisted his number, treated him indifferently, kept her distance from him, made snide remarks about him while remaining impassive, and even compared herself to another woman. All of those were signs of jealousy, according to this psychology book.
He naturally substituted this into an equation: jealousy = love.
Was that woman jealous toward him because she loved him?
This realization had him puckering his lips into a smile. The frost in his eyes gradually receded, and joy faintly emerged from within.
Min Yu raised his head and watched his bossâs excitement and contentment in shock. The man returned to himself quickly after, only to realize that his assistant was looking at him in such a bare manner. Hastily withdrawing the smile on his lips, he cleared his throat and sent a glum glare at him. âContinue reading!â
The latter gathered his wits and dared not look at his superior any longer.
ââA man must be in control of his emotions and respect his partnerâs feelings. He should keep in mind that she is not his private propertyâââ
âShe is my private property,â he corrected, feeling rather displeased.
âShe has the right to be in a relationship and to fall in love with anotherââ
He swiftly cut him off, shooting daggers at him. âShe has no right to be in a relationship with anyone else besides me, and all the more, she has no right to love another!â
The oppressive aura he effused made his subordinate shut his mouth for a long while.
âBoss...â
âIs that book authentic?â he asked skeptically. âHow can there be such an absurd description?â
âIt is!â
His assistant turned to another page and added, âIt says here: âJealousy may be a reflection of oneâs affection, but it vastly contrasts with true love. There is only one way out of jealousy: use love to gain affection and to redeem oneâs relationship.ââ
ââUse love to gain affectionâ?â
He could not help pondering on this as he leaned against his chair. From the expression he showed, he seemed to be considering it seriously.
âDo women firmly insist on marriage? What is a typical womanâs opinion on marriage?â
The assistant shook his head in bafflement. âI donât know.â
He loved to answer that question as well.
Alas, he did not have a girlfriend.
His boss sent him a glare. âIf you donât know, then hurry up and investigate!â
He hurriedly fished out a book titled âMarriage Psychologyâ and quietly skimmed through its pages.
ââBeing in a relationship is easy, but staying committed is difficult. The biggest difference between these two is that a person looks at his or her partnerâs good points when in a relationship while a person must embrace the otherâs weak points once married. In marriage, communication is often the issue. This is usually due to the disparity between a man and womanâs perception of marriage.ââ
He nodded thoughtfully.
ââLove is everything to a woman, whereas it is only a small part to a manâs life. A manâs accomplishments come from success in his career and the rise in his social status. Love is simply a method to relieve himself of his loneliness. As for a woman, her accomplishments largely originate from a manâs concern and love for her. Love can be a womanâs driving force in life...â
