Lin Ce bent down to pick up the pieces, and as he walked up to Mo Beichen, looking at his solitary back, he said, "Director Mo, when things reach an extreme, they can only move in the opposite direction. Mrs. Mo is still young and in a rebellious phase. If you pressure her too much, it's understandable that she might react negatively. I believe once she comes to terms with the reality, she will accept you."
Mo Beichen snatched the pieces away, pinching a corner between his fingers as if intending to tear them up, but ultimately he let his arms fall. With a strained voice, he said, "Secretary Lin, is it true that the one who loves more deeply is the one who ends up getting hurt the most?"
Lin Ce pursed his lips, having never seen Mo Beichen so dejected before, he said, "Director Mo, I believe Mrs. Mo will see the sincerity of your love for her."
