The heroine robs the marriage? The Beijing circle big man follows the army to the island

Jian Yue frowned even more tightly, bit her lower lip, and thought for a moment.

Seeing her wavering, Jiang Zeyuan put her hand on his cheek and rubbed it gently.

"Wife, I understand your idea. But Beijing also has its unique advantages."

After that, he took Jian Yue's hand, walked to the window, and pointed at the streets and buildings outside.

"Just like the Great Wall and the Summer Palace we visited these days, the historical culture these places carry is unmatched by other places. Children growing up in such an environment can be better influenced. Moreover, I don't want our family to be separated. I hope we can always be together."

Jian Yue took a deep breath and took a small step back, putting some distance between herself and him.

Jiang Zeyuan also stood up, gently held her in his arms, and rested his chin on the top of her head.

Jian Yue's body was slightly stiff and her eyes were somewhat empty.

After a moment of silence, he slowly raised his hands and hugged Jiang Zeyuan.

"This is not an easy matter. I need time to think about it. Jing City and Huacheng are both important to us. I can't make a decision easily."

"I know this is difficult. But I hope you can consider it carefully. Our family needs you and Jingshi."

Jian Yue nodded slightly, with a lot of thoughts in her mind.

A few days later, I received an invitation from a professor at Tsinghua University.

I hope she can return to her alma mater to give a speech to the students of the Department of Architecture and share her experiences in the field of architecture over the years.

Jian Yue readily agreed.

Standing at the gate of Tsinghua University, looking at the familiar campus, the scenes of my study here flashed through my mind one by one.

At this moment, I had the answer in my heart. Perhaps for the sake of my two children and this family, I should stay.

On the day of the speech, the auditorium of the Department of Architecture was packed.

Jian Yue, wearing a simple yet appropriate professional attire, walked up to the podium with confident steps.

The eyes of the younger students in the audience were full of anticipation and curiosity, and warm applause echoed in the auditorium.

“Hello, my dear juniors. Coming back to my alma mater and standing here, I feel like I’ve returned to my youth. Today, I would like to share with you my experience in the construction industry over the years, hoping to give you some inspiration.”

"When I was your age, I was full of love and longing for architecture. At that time, I felt that architecture was solidified music, and each building had its own unique melody. After graduation, I entered this industry with great ambition, only to find that the reality was far more complicated than I had imagined."

"The first project I participated in was a bridge across a mountain..."

The students in the audience listened quietly, as if they could feel the difficulties she was going through at the time.

“But I didn’t give up because I knew…”

Jian Yue paused for a moment and glanced at the young and energetic faces in the audience.

"My experience over the years has taught me that architecture is not only an art, but also a responsibility. We must consider the needs of users, respect the environment, and pass on culture. While pursuing innovation, we must not forget the essence of architecture."

The speech is coming to an end.

Jian Yue smiled and said, "I have also faced choices, just like you now. In the future, you may choose between different cities and different projects. But no matter where you are, as long as you have a passion for architecture and persistence in your heart, you will definitely be able to find your own path. I hope that you can keep your original intention on the road of architecture and create more excellent works."

There was another round of warm applause from the audience and she walked down from the podium.

As soon as Jian Yue stepped down from the podium, she was surrounded by a group of enthusiastic younger classmates.

They asked questions one after another.

"Senior Jian Yue, what was the biggest technical challenge you encountered in the cross-mountain bridge project? How did you solve it?" a boy wearing glasses asked anxiously.

Jian Yue smiled and answered patiently: "The biggest challenge was how to ensure that the bridge remained stable under the complex mountainous terrain and changing climatic conditions. We did a lot of field surveys and data analysis, discussed with the team repeatedly, and finally adopted a special anchoring technology to solve the problem."

"Senior, how do you balance innovation and cost during the design process?" a girl with a ponytail asked.

Jian Yue thought for a moment and said, "This is a critical question. In fact, innovation and cost are not necessarily contradictory. We will set a cost framework at the beginning of the design, and then look for innovation within this framework. For example, in the selection of materials, we will look for new materials that are cost-effective and can meet the design requirements. At the same time, we will optimize the design structure and reduce unnecessary waste, so that we can control costs while ensuring innovation."

Another junior student squeezed to the front.

"Senior, you just mentioned choosing between different cities. What do you think is the most important factor to consider when choosing a project city?"

Jian Yue looked at him and answered seriously: "The choice of a city requires a combination of many factors. The first is the potential and demand of the project itself. For example, some cities are developing rapidly and have a great demand for infrastructure construction, so there will be more opportunities. The second is the local culture and environment, which will affect your design concept and style. There is also the factor of life."

The younger students continued to surround Jian Yue, asking questions one after another, and Jian Yue answered them all seriously.

That evening, she dressed up carefully.

She wore an elegant black dress and light makeup.

Then he called Jiang Zeyuan to invite him to a high-end Western restaurant that they had often mentioned but never had the chance to go to.

Jiang Zeyuan came to the restaurant.

The moment I saw Jian Yue, I was surprised.

Jian Yue stood up with a smile and pulled him to sit by the window.

The lights in the restaurant are soft and soothing music flows in the air.

They ordered two signature steaks and a bottle of fine red wine.

When the red wine is poured into the crystal clear goblet, the rich color shines intoxicatingly under the light.

Jian Yue gently picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

Feel the mellow taste of the red wine spreading on the tip of your tongue, and then slowly start the conversation.

"Zeyuan, I've been thinking a lot these past few days, about our home and Beijing."

Jiang Zeyuan put down the wine glass in his hand and listened attentively.

"I know Beijing means a lot to us. It has our memories, family and friends here, and it's also a good environment for our children to grow up in." Jian Yue paused, then continued, "So I thought of a compromise. We can continue to live in Beijing first, and when you retire at the age of 50, we will move to Shenzhen to retire. By then, the children should have grown up and become independent, and we can enjoy our quiet time in Shenzhen."

Jiang Zeyuan nodded in agreement without any hesitation.

"Wife, I think this is a great idea!"

Jian Yue smiled, "I think this is good too. We have been busy with our family and careers all these years. When we retire, we can have a warm and comfortable home in Shenzhen, where we can watch the sunrise and sunset every day and recall our lives."

Jiang Zeyuan reached out, held Jian Yue's hand on the table, and stroked it gently.

"Well, it's settled. It's great that you think this way. I believe our lives will get better and better in the future."

They continued to enjoy their dinner, savoring the delicious steak.

Occasionally clink glasses and take a sip of red wine...
