After Rebirth, the Celebrity Daughter is the Medical Expert!-Chapter 226 - 152: No One Is an Island

"The more time I spend with people, the more I like dogs. Dogs are always dogs, but sometimes people just aren’t people!"

Ning Youguang was deep in thought when she suddenly heard Xia Youqing’s sarcastic voice about her grand-uncle.

Turning her head, she saw Xia Youqing had somehow made her way into the living room, arms crossed, watching TV.

Beside her squatted a small Shiba Inu, which suddenly barked as Ning turned her head.

"..." Ning Youguang.

Xia Youqing paused, then shook her head and sat down beside her daughter with an amused smile.

"Your grandaunt is so smart, how could she fall for him?"

"I was just pondering that myself," Ning Youguang said slowly. "American psychologist Robert F. Bernstein and his colleagues believe: ’No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.’ He proposed three relational models: moderate dependence, excessive dependence, and obstructive detachment. There’s a group of people in a state of obstructive detachment, longing for a satisfying intimate relationship... Women who have been single and independent for a long time may seem strong on the surface, but they lack something essential for building intimate relationships: a heartfelt sense of security."

This psychological need happens to match her grandaunt’s emotional value orientation.

This grand-uncle of hers, before marriage, pretended to be a good and attentive partner, showing her every detail of care and emotional value, but after marriage, he became a drunkard, lazy, extravagant, and often spoke harshly to her grandaunt.

The most shocking part was that the year her grandaunt gave birth to her cousin, he went out to hire prostitutes.

After a few times, he was quickly caught by her grandaunt.

Her grandaunt immediately proposed separation.

At that time, because her cousin was still young, her grandaunt didn’t want to divorce immediately.

At the time she told the family, "I can do without a husband, but I love my son very much. I hope to give him a complete home for these few years first."

However, her grand-uncle shamelessly flaunted himself as the Ning family’s son-in-law, swindling people and living a chaotic personal life.

Being such a scoundrel, he even fancied splitting half of her grandaunt’s entire fortune.

Many people knowingly asked him, "On what basis do you demand half of your wife’s assets?"

This thick-skinned man, no matter who he faced, always insisted, "Having been part of the Ning family for so many years, I’ve contributed to the family and the growth of the Ning family’s assets, and everything I’m fighting for is rightfully mine."

Xia Youqing listened intently to her daughter’s analysis and, forcing herself to swallow her disgust, continued watching TV, "Ning Xian encountering such a shameless man is truly a nightmare."

"He won’t be able to cause trouble for much longer," Ning Youguang said. "The last time I went home, I saw grandaunt, and she said it’s about time to settle this relationship."

After being separated for so many years and fighting a divorce lawsuit for just as long.

Ning Xian can manage both the divorce lawsuit and successfully serve as the Ning family’s CEO, proving she’s no pushover.

However, this once fairy-tale romance, which broke societal prejudices, ending up torn apart over money, is undeniably tragic.

...

That afternoon, on Weibo.
