The Maid's Rise to Be a President's Wife-Chapter 253: Love or Responsibility?
Chapter 253 - Love or Responsibility?
Ji Minze returned to the company, looking completely exhausted.
"Is there any news about Yiren?" Ji Minze sat at his desk and asked Dongfang Hao.
Dongfang Hao shook his head. If Yiren deliberately wanted to hide, it would be very difficult for them to find her trace. Unless she showed up, they couldn't search for her door to door.
"Have you checked the recent entry and exit records?" Ji Minze asked again.
"There are no recent entry and exit records related to Yiren for now," Dongfang Hao still shook his head and said.
"Please, step up the efforts and help me find her as soon as possible, okay?" Ji Minze almost pleaded with Dongfang Hao.
"President, we will definitely do our best! But you also need to take care of your own health," Dongfang Hao saw that Ji Minze's mental state was on the verge of collapse.
"I'm fine. Just please help me postpone my schedule for this week. I don't want to leave here during this period," Ji Minze said.
"Okay!" Dongfang Hao nodded. So many things had happened in the past few days. He knew that Ji Minze was under extraordinary pressure. In this situation, he could only help him find Yiren as soon as possible.
Dongfang Hao left Ji Minze's office. Ji Minze sat in the chair, having no intention of looking at the documents at all. His head started to ache faintly, and he closed his eyes and feigned sleep.
Cheng Yuxuan rushed back from the US after he learned that Yiren had chosen to leave Ji Minze and hide.
In Ji Minze's office,

"Since you chose to marry Yiren, you shouldn't have let her down," Cheng Yuxuan said excitedly, grabbing Ji Minze's collar. This was the first time he had been so disrespectful to Ji Minze!
"President!" Dongfang Hao and Cui Zijun exclaimed simultaneously and were about to step forward to pull Cheng Yuxuan away, but were stopped by Ji Minze.
"You guys go out first," Ji Minze stopped them, just asking them to leave first. He would deal with his own matters.
Dongfang Hao and Cui Zijun both looked at Ji Minze. Finally, they chose to go out because Ji Minze's stern gaze had made them understand that he didn't need their interference.
They walked out of Ji Minze's office and stood guard at the door.
"If you know where Yiren is, please tell me," Ji Minze turned back to Cheng Yuxuan and said. He didn't blame Cheng Yuxuan for his impulsiveness. He understood their relationship.
"If I knew where she was, I wouldn't have come to you," Cheng Yuxuan said angrily and punched Ji Minze.
Ji Minze, who had no fighting skills, fell to the ground. Soon, blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth. But he didn't feel the pain. It seemed that this physical pain was far less than the pain in his heart.
"President!" Dongfang Hao and Cui Zijun rushed in simultaneously.
"Get out!" Ji Minze shouted at Dongfang Hao and Cui Zijun, then struggled to get up from the ground and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Why did you provoke Yiren? Since you did, why can't you take full responsibility for her? Does she deserve to be the victim of your love with Cousin Tang Lei? When Cousin Tang Lei wasn't around, you picked Yiren up and treated her like a treasure on a whim. Now that Cousin Tang Lei is back, you think Yiren is redundant, don't you?" Cheng Yuxuan accused. If he had known that such a thing would happen one day, he would never have let Yiren marry Ji Minze. He would have taken her away from here and gone to the US with him.
"Yiren is my wife," Ji Minze clarified.
"Since you know she's your wife, you shouldn't have done anything to make her sad," Cheng Yuxuan accused even more furiously.
"I didn't do anything to let her down," Ji Minze continued to wipe the blood that kept flowing out and said.
"You keep saying that Yiren is your wife, but you're thinking of another woman in your heart! Isn't that cruel enough? Do you know what kind of life Yiren used to live? Why did she dress so strangely? That's because she grew up without a sense of security and was afraid of being hurt," Cheng Yuxuan poked Ji Minze's chest and shouted. "What you're doing now is like trampling on her dignity and rubbing salt in her wounds. Do you know that?"
Ji Minze didn't say anything. Images of Yiren asking him several times, "Are we really married?" flashed through his mind. Because she had always lacked a sense of security, she needed to keep verifying the truth of this.
"Brother Minze, I've always admired you! But this time, you've really disappointed me. If your love with Cousin Tang Lei needs to be built on hurting others, then it will never receive true blessings," Cheng Yuxuan said dejectedly, then opened the door and walked out.
"President?" Dongfang Hao and Cui Zijun walked in and asked with concern.
"I'm fine. You guys go back to work. I want to calm myself down for a while," Ji Minze said to Dongfang Hao and Cui Zijun.
Then he walked back to his seat and sat down, leaning against the door.
Dongfang Hao and Cui Zijun looked at each other and walked out of Ji Minze's office, closing the door for him.
Ji Minze looked at the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling window, lost in thought with a sad expression.
There was nothing wrong with his love for Tang Lei originally!
Yiren was even less at fault. She just loved him purely!
The one at fault was him. He shouldn't have let go of Tang Lei! And since he had made the decision to let go, he shouldn't have let Tang Lei still have hope in him. So, what should he do now?
Fate arranged for him to miss Tang Lei, and then let Yiren appear in his life. When he took Yiren's hand, Tang Lei came back. Was it testing his life or playing with his feelings?
Yiren, where are you now? Please come back, okay?
Ji Minze called out to her in his heart. Facing Yiren's disappearance, he felt a sense of confusion about life for the first time. This feeling was like losing his way. He didn't know where his life should go next.
During his darkest days, Yiren was like a lighthouse in his life, giving him hope and strength. And now that she had left, he suddenly realized how important she was to him! She was like oxygen. He had been used to her presence, so he didn't feel anything special. But when one day she left, he found that she was so important. Losing Tang Lei made his heart ache as if it were bleeding. She was his first love. But losing Yiren made his heart almost forget how to beat. She was his partner.
Which is more important, love or responsibility?
If there is only love without responsibility, it's hard to last!
But if there is only responsibility without love, it's also a kind of torture!
So, when it comes to weighing the two,
The first thing is to know what you really need!
