Although regrettable and somewhat sorry for his mother, for some reason, he was actually relieved to have changed his personality.
In the past, Fu Jingting was praised by everyone and his mother was proud of him, but he was under a lot of pressure.
No one knew that he didn’t like his past self.
Because so many times he could feel his mother looking through himself to others.
“True enough.” After hearing the man’s words, Rong Shu sighed with emotion.
Seeing this, Fu Jingting had a vague sense of foreboding in his heart as he lifted her chin and made her look at him, “What is so true? Is there something wrong with you suddenly bringing up my past character?”
The man’s insight was still so keen.
Rongshu’s red lips twitched for a moment before she bit her lip and mewled, “Fu Jingting, actually the first time I saw Su Cheng today, I thought of you in the past.”
“What?” Fu Jingting wrinkled his brows.
When I saw Su Cheng, it was as if I had seen you in the past, that gentle, flamboyant young man in white, you know? You two give me the same feeling, you are too much alike, not in looks, but in the character and temperament you show, of course, I am referring to the past you, the present you are not like him at all, the past you are almost identical to him, it is not too much to say that you are one and the same, I am saying this, do you understand?”
She looked at him, and her meaning was clear enough.
His character was the same as Su Cheng’s.
To be even more blunt, his character, was deliberately cultivated by someone towards Su Cheng.
And that person was none other than his mother.
For she had just asked who had nurtured his character in the past.
Now she was saying that his past personality was the same as Su Cheng’s, so that was the meaning of what she was saying.
Fu Jingting was not a fool, so naturally he could not have failed to understand the meaning of Rong Shu’s words.
It was because he had understood that he felt his mind going blank and his body tensing up once again.
He fiercely clenched his fists and stared at Rong Shu, his voice hoarse and a little shaky as he asked, “What are you saying? The me in the past was the same as Su Cheng’s character?”
He had never really met Su Cheng, only seen pictures of Su Cheng.
Although he had heard others talk about Su Cheng’s character and how he handled himself, he would never think of himself as being very much like Su Cheng.
Others would not tell him either.
So, he really didn’t know that he and Su Cheng, could actually resemble each other!
Looking at the man’s emotions that were clearly starting to get agitated, Rong Shu nodded her head somewhat unforgivingly, “Yes.”
She knew that it must be very difficult for the man’s heart at this moment.
After all, he had grown up the way his mother had wanted him to, and in order to fulfil her wishes, he had given up the personality he wanted and finally grown into the personality his mother liked.
He did all this to make his mother happy.
But in the end, he was told that his mother had raised him this way, not because she liked a son with a gentle character, but because she wanted to fulfil her longing for another man through him.
Anyone who knew this would not feel good in their heart.
What’s more, it was a man as proud as Fu Jingting.
Fu Jingting lowered his head slightly and did not speak anymore, making it impossible for people to see his expression at the moment.
But Rongshu knew from the cold, suppressed air that flowed out from his body that he was angry at the moment, very angry.
He just didn’t know who he was angry at.
Angry at Su Cheng, angry at her, or angry at his own mother!
After a long while, Fu Jingting suddenly lifted his head, revealing a pair of red, bloodshot eyes looking at Rong Shu, his voice growing hoarse, which also held an indescribable feeling, “I want to calm down for a while.”
Rongshu knew that he was not feeling well at the moment, all kinds of emotions were intertwined, if he didn’t calm down, sooner or later something would go wrong.
Thinking about it, Rongshu nodded her head and agreed, “Okay, then I’ll go back to my room first.”
“No need.” Fu Jingting took her hand and stopped her from getting up, “I’ll just go to the study.”
With those words, he let go of her hand and stood up himself, heading over to the study.
Even at this time, even though his heart was already in turmoil, he did not ask her to back off, but chose to back off himself.
This man ah
When Rongshu looked at his back, which had never been tall and straight, and actually bent a little at this moment, it was as if something was sticking in her heart, very hard, and her eyes were full of heartache.
A proud man who was born to be the end of the line for others, who was looked up to, and who was so outstanding that he was unattainable, but now suddenly bent his back, how could this not make people sigh with shock?
The person who had bent his spine was his own mother, the one he had always respected.
Although his own mother had brought him into this world because she wanted to be free, he still loved and respected her.
But he had no idea that his real mother, who had always loved him and treated him well too, had mixed in this motherly love she gave him with the gla*s crumbs that pierced his heart.
His own mother, who wanted a son with a gentle character, just because the person she loved had a gentle character and she could not see the person she loved, raised her son to be exactly like the person she loved, so that through her own son she could relieve her longing for her lover.
Is it really what a mother should do to treat her own son as a stand-in for her lover?
Fu Jingting also bent this back precisely because he was now a stand-in for Su Cheng.
In this world, every person is unique and should not be a stand-in for anyone.
But a proud man like Fu Jingting had become a stand-in for someone when he didn’t know it, so how could he not be devastated?
For it was his mother, whom he loved and respected, who dealt him the fatal blow, not his enemy!
There are times when the most painful wounds are not inflicted by enemies, but by those closest to them.
When she thought of this, Rong Shu’s eyes turned red and she squeezed her palms and fiercely stood up from the sofa, shouting towards Fu Jingting’s back, “Fu Jingting.”
Fu Jingting had already reached the door of the study, his hand was already on the handle of the study door, and he was about to open it, when he heard Rong Shu’s voice, he stopped again, but did not turn around, nor did he respond.
The first time I heard this, I was able to get to the door.
Hearing these words, Fu Jingting’s figure was stunned for a moment, and his eyes grew redder and redder.
What did she mean?
She wanted him to continue to be Su Cheng’s double?
Just as Fu Jingting was about to turn around and question him clearly, Rong Shu spoke again, “But I don’t think so now, I’m glad you didn’t change back to the Fu Jingting of the past, because I now realise that the you of the past, was not the real you, the character you have now, although it was formed anew due to hypnosis, was formed by yourself, not influenced by others, perhaps. This is the character you should have had originally, and the character you like you want, so I’m happy now, and happy for you, Fu Jingting congratulations, you’ve finally been yourself!”
Without knowing the source of his character in the past, she was truly sorry that he hadn’t changed back to the way he used to be, because what she loved most, was the gentle him from the past.
Who wouldn’t love a gentle young man in white?
But now that she knew that this was actually how his gentleness in the past had come about, she no longer felt pity.
She was even suddenly a little grateful that Gu Manyin had found Shi Mo and hypnotised Fu Jingting, giving him his true character indirectly.
