Chapter 1957: Extra: A Brand New Life 72 (Jiang Yue and Xue Yan) Chapter 1957: Extra: A Brand New Life 72 (Jiang Yue and Xue Yan) āBut Iāve seen many reports about him,ā Jiang Yue continued, āand know that he is a person highly motivated by profit, completely unlike President Yu, who has always been genuinely interested in charity. Our organization is non-profit, and since he is focused on profit, once we partner up, itās very likely that complications will arise down the line.ā
Mr. Xue: āSo, you and Xue Yan mean to say that we donāt cooperate with the Yu clan but only with the Si Corporation?ā
Jiang Yue nodded: āAlthough Si Yan is also profit-oriented, his father has a charitable foundation under his name. Every year, Si Yan ensures that a substantial amount of funds is transferred into this charitable foundation to help those in need, especially people with heart disease. I heard that this foundation was originally under his motherās name. After she passed away, it was transferred under his fatherās name to continue the work, and itās been going for more than forty years. After running it for so many years and considering that his research center focuses on heart disease, we are willing to believe that the Si Corporation genuinely wants to cooperate with our research center without seeking any profit. Like us, they just want to advance the research as soon as possible so that people suffering from these diseases can benefit earlier.ā
āThatās correct,ā Mr. Xue nodded. He then said, āI heard his mother had heart disease, and it was because of heart disease that she passed away. She was a very kind person even before marrying his father and had already been engaged in charity work. It was indeed because she was born into a wealthy family that she had the power to engage in such efforts, and she persisted with it until the day she died. This is probably the reason why, even ten years after his motherās death, he and his father are still committed to the cause.ā
At this point, Mr. Xue sighed.
His own support for his son and soon-to-be daughter-in-law in this matter was also influenced, to some extent, by a reason similar to Mr. Siās. It was because of his wife.
His wife was mentally ill; in fact, she was sick, which was why she once thought of taking their son with her in death. So, he didnāt want anyone to think of dying with their son because of an illness.
Although he and his wife met through a matchmaking arrangement and just made do with each other, marrying without much affection, and their marriage didnāt have much affection either, unlike Mr. Si and Mrs. Si who truly loved each other, he fulfilled his duties and obligations as a husband. He believed he had not let his wife down. Nevertheless, she had been a living person who had been by his side for more than a dozen years; her death surely saddened him.
In fact, he was in pain.
But the pain didnāt stem from losing his wife; it was from not having protected his son well enough and the anguish his son must have gone through because of the ordeal.
He couldnāt understand why his wife had thought of taking their son with her in death, a move that even her psychiatrist had not foreseen.
Fortunately, it didnāt leave any lasting trauma on his son, or else he would never forgive himself.
If he hadnāt been so busy, and if he had been the one to pick up his son that day, such an incident would never have occurred.
Also, because his son is now well, he gradually stopped blaming himself and moved on.
However, he never resented his wife, not even after she did what she did, because he knew her well; she was sick and couldnāt control herself, it wasnāt that she didnāt love their son.
Her love for their son was no less than his.
Otherwise, she wouldnāt have thought of taking their son with her in the end. It was excessive love, combined with a lack of self-control and a muddled mind, he knew.
But knowing is one thing; he still couldnāt comprehend how someone could commit such an act.
