Chapter 2918 I'm Going to Europe

The driver parked the car downstairs, and Qin Feng went upstairs alone carrying his briefcase.

Qin Feng took out his key and opened his door. As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw Yang Yuxin wearing a thin nightgown, holding a pair of scissors, trimming the potted plant on his dining table.

Yang Yuxin bought the bouquet herself; Qin Feng, a grown man, wouldn't have the inclination to display flowers at home.

Recently, Yang Yuxin and Qin Feng's relationship has not been very close. She has hardly ever taken the initiative to visit Qin Feng's house. They just greet each other every morning and evening, like neighbors.

Qin Feng assumed that Yang Yuxin's sudden estrangement was because he had wronged her several times and distrusted her, which hurt her feelings and caused her to distance herself from him.

Qin Feng felt somewhat disappointed and saddened by this, which is a normal thought for a normal man. However, Qin Feng also felt relieved. He was a civil servant and a married man. Yang Yuxin no longer bothering him was a big relief for him.

Because of this thought in Qin Feng's mind, he didn't actively seek out Yang Yuxin during this period.

Tonight, Yang Yuxin once again took the initiative to enter his house and arranged flowers for it, which made Qin Feng a little strange.

"Why are you staring at me like that? Don't you recognize me?" Yang Yuxin glanced back at Qin Feng, then continued arranging flowers.

"What brings you here today?" Qin Feng glanced at Yang Yuxin and said as he walked towards the study. After speaking, he went into the study, put his bag inside, took out the USB drive from his briefcase, and put it in the desk drawer.

When Qin Feng came out of the study, he closed the study door behind him.

Qin Feng's subtle movement was noticed by Yang Yuxin, who smiled and said, "I'm in a good mood today, so I'm giving you a chance to get closer to me."

"Oh? Tell me, what's making you so happy?"

"I've completed my resignation procedures today," Yang Yuxin said.

"Resignation?"

"Correct."

"You mean you resigned from Shazhou University?" Qin Feng asked in surprise.

"Yes, why are you so surprised?" Yang Yuxin turned to look at Qin Feng.

"Why would you resign for no reason? You just want to give up such a good job as a university professor?" Qin Feng didn't understand, then muttered, "Yeah, you can just quit whenever you want."

"I'm going back to Europe," Yang Yuxin replied.

"Back to Europe?" Qin Feng was genuinely surprised this time.

"Why?" Qin Feng asked.

"What? You can't bear to part with me? You want me to stay?" Yang Yuxin asked with a smile.

"No... I was just... asking casually, why are you suddenly going to Europe when you were doing well in China?" Qin Feng denied.

"You think I'm doing well? Tell me, in what way am I doing well? Family? Relationships? Or work?" Yang Yuxin retorted.

Qin Feng remained silent, neither speaking nor finding it convenient to speak. He did indeed want to keep Yang Yuxin, but he couldn't find a reason to do so, nor was it his place to do so.

“I just think your decision was too sudden. You should think it over more carefully. If you’re not happy in Shazhou, you can choose to go to big cities like Beijing or Shanghai. You’re a top student and have overseas study experience. These places offer you a stage to showcase your talents and realize your life’s value, and they can also help you get away from all these troubles here.”

"There's no need to go to Europe. The international situation is clearly one of East rising and West falling. We are the engine of global economic growth, and the best opportunities are in China, not abroad."

"Besides, the security situation abroad is not good now, including in Europe. China is the safest place in the world. As a girl, you are going abroad alone without any relatives or friends. It is very unsafe. I still do not recommend that you go."

"Besides, isn't there an old saying that goes, 'There's no place like home'? No matter how good Europe is, it's not as good as your own motherland.' I suggest you think it over again and make a more careful decision," Qin Feng earnestly advised Yang Yuxin.

Yang Yuxin nodded: "What you said makes a lot of sense, it's all true. To be honest, what you said made me a little hesitant, but... I've already resigned, and I've already discussed the relevant matters for joining a European company."

Qin Feng stared at Yang Yuxin with his mouth agape, and finally could only say to her, "You've already found a job?"

“Yes, I’ve lived in Europe for many years and worked for a large international company before, so it’s relatively easy to find a job. This company is very good, and the benefits they offer are also very good. In addition… the company will help me with my citizenship application,” Yang Yuxin continued.

"Citizenship?" Qin Feng frowned again.

“Yes, naturalization, not permanent residency or a green card. Once I go, I will never come back,” Yang Yuxin said calmly.

Qin Feng stared at Yang Yuxin for a long time, speechless. Yang Yuxin also put down the flowers she had been "torturing" for so long, lowered her head, and remained silent. The room suddenly fell silent.

"Why? Did something happen?" Qin Feng asked Yang Yuxin in a low voice after a long while.

"Nothing happened, I just don't want to stay in China anymore because I feel tired, and it's meaningless and pointless."

“You know, Yang Guoqiang, Yang Zhihao, and Yang Zhijie are supposed to be my relatives, but in reality, they are all my enemies, or they treat me as an enemy. Now it’s even worse. Ever since you secretly cooperated with Ding Wenbo to pull off this sneak attack that caught the Yang family off guard, just as you suspected that I leaked your plan to the Yang family, Yang Guoqiang suspected that I leaked their plan to you. That’s why you contacted Ding Wenbo in advance and went to the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection to catch them off guard.”

"We didn't have any feelings for each other to begin with, and now it's even worse. We're enemies now. Do you think I can stay here any longer?"

"It's the same for you. You know I love you. Ever since I met you, I've been trying everything I can to make you love me, to break up with Zhou Qian, and to make you marry me."

"But now I realize that it was all wishful thinking on my part. You never cared about me at all. You've been using me all along, and you've never truly trusted me. I'm just a tool you use to deal with the Yang family."

“I don’t blame you. We’re all adults… Who isn’t acting in their own self-interest? Who isn’t a tool in someone else’s hands? But I’ve also realized that you don’t love me at all, and there’s no possibility between us.”

"What do you think I'm still doing here? What's the point? Am I waiting for Yang Zhijie to find evidence that I passed messages to you and then settle scores with me, or am I just waiting here for you to divorce Zhou Qian and then marry me?" Yang Yuxin asked Qin Feng with a smile.
