Chapter 1161: Chapter 668 Changing Major Secretly_2
"Besides, Wu Zeyuan is not wrong. If itās just this one thing, you are not at fault. A young girl drinking outside is indeed very unsafe, and if I had a sister who did that, I would have said the same thing," he said.
"But you didnāt bring up anything else, did you? If you had, that could have been somewhat understandable. But you didnāt. You only mentioned this and nothing more."
Hearing this, Old Liuās face grew even graver. He took a deep breath and simply couldnāt utter a single word.
He did feel that they truly wanted to help Liu Yue.
He hadnāt expected these young men to have such perseverance.
It was actually quite admirable.
But he really didnāt think he was wrong.
Just then, Liu Yue stood up, wiped her tears, and after a few sobs, she began to speak slowly, "Since you all want to know the full story, Iāll tell you now. Itās not just this one thing. If it were just one thing, I wouldnāt have been suppressing it for so long, and it wouldnāt have had any effect on me. Iāve been controlled this strictly since I was very young."
"Thatās why Iāve been repressing it for so long. Iām feeling really terrible right now. Whatever I do is controlled, and even though Iām fully grown, I canāt make my own choices. I have to do as he says, follow the path he has laid out for me. But thatās not what I want."
"My friends all make their own choices about their lives, and their parents donāt control them so tightly. To me, thatās overstepping boundaries, but my father doesnāt think itās crossing the line. He even believes itās for my own good. But thatās just his thinking, itās what he believes is best for me."
That was never what she wanted.
What she wanted was not any of this.
And all of it was just what her father thought was good for her.
All his ideas.
Actually, her mother knew about this too but didnāt help her.
Her mother also thought that what her father was doing was right.
With this thought, Liu Yue felt very sad, "Of course, he never understood if this was what I wanted. In fact, it wasnāt what I wanted at all. I really donāt want to live this way. I live in pain every day, struggling with it every day. I wish I could act as if nothing had happened."
"But these things really happened. Thereās no way to pretend they didnāt. Iāve been holding this back for a long time. It was them here who persuaded me to think about talking about it, to confront my father with it, although I had foreseen the consequences even before saying anything."
"Yet I still bravely took that step. After I told him, he didnāt think he was wrong and still believed it was for my good. But do you know?"
At this point, Liu Yueās emotions were already very intense.
If this continued, she might face a breakdown.
Yet Qin Yuan did not stop her.
Jiang Qi was also waiting on the side.
Wu Zeyuan pursed his lips and in the end, did nothing.
A moment later, Liu Yue took a deep breath, "Ever since I was little, Iāve been controlled down to the color of clothes I wear. He has to dictate what kind of food I eat, too. Since I was small, Iāve liked the taste of fries. Though Iāve never had them, Iāve always liked their flavor. He said they were junk food, so he never let me eat them."
"But later I sneaked a taste, and I fell in love with that flavor. Yet, I never dared to eat them in front of him because he forbade it. If I ate them, heād undoubtedly get very angry and even think I was being rebellious."
"Any time I didnāt follow his way of thinking, it was considered an act of rebellion. He had to know everything about anyone I played with, and he even forbid me from going out at night. He said it was very dangerous for girls to go out at night. But if other girls can go out, why canāt I?"
Before she could finish, Liu Yueās voice was already choked with sobs.
The faces of the onlookers showed expressions of extreme surprise.
They hadnāt expected this young girl to have gone through so much.
It was indeed quite tragic.
If this experience continues, she might really begin to despair.
They couldnāt bear to watch this young girl being treated like this!
Liu Yue took a deep breath, regulated her breathing, and continued, "Why am I considered an anomaly? Why do they insist on sheltering me as if I were a delicate flower in a greenhouse? I donāt want to be a greenhouse flower; actually, I want to do normal things like other girls, but I canāt."
"I have to listen to him, or Iād be defying his wishes, Iād be disobedient. And after I graduated from high school, he arranged which college Iād go to, but I didnāt like it. I wanted to go to the college of my choice, but he refused."
"In the end, I still went to the college he chose for me. I wanted to major in a field I was interested in, but he said it wouldnāt be easy to find a job in that field, so he dismissed my choice and picked Civil Engineering for me, a major I despise, but still, he forced me to study it."
She despised anything to do with civil engineering the most.
That was the major her father had wanted to study.
He couldnāt make that choice, so he forced it on her.
Though he verbally claimed that this industry was lucrative, the reality was just as it was.
Thinking about this, Liu Yue took another deep breath and went on, "What he doesnāt know is that after a year, I secretly switched majors, so the job Iām working in isnāt in Civil Engineering, but Journalism. He didnāt know this all along; Iāve been hiding it. But things have come to this point."
"I no longer feel the need to hide it, so I revealed everything. Why did I secretly change majors? Isnāt it because he forced me into a major I didnāt like? Besides, this is my life, why should he make choices for me?"
"Why should I do everything the way he wants? All these years, Iāve been no different than a puppet, but Iāve never given up resisting. I still want to chase my dreams, so I rebelled. He didnāt want me to drink, so here I am drinking. I will do everything he forbids."
The next moment, Liu Yueās eyes lost all their brightness, "I really canāt imagine what decisions I might make if he keeps oppressing me like this. Iām just too miserable, I really donāt know what to do next."
At this point, Liu Yue was truly helpless, her whole body crouching down and even clutching her head.
She no longer glanced at them, and her entire demeanor became very helpless.
Now that what should and shouldnāt have been said were out, she truly didnāt know what to do next.
Mr. Liu had never imagined Liu Yue would have so much to say.
His eyes were already somewhat glazed over, and his whole person was in shock.
Who knows how much time passed; the surroundings were still very quiet.
Not a single person spoke.
It was so quiet that even breathing could be heard.
Qin Yuanās expression was somber.
He hadnāt expected Liu Yue had gone through something like this.
Sheād been forced to choose a major she didnāt like.
Fortunately, Liu Yue managed to switch back to a major she was passionate about.
Otherwise, she would have regretted it her whole life.
After all, this was a lifelong matter!
Mr. Liu was truly confused, to think he had made Liu Yue live according to his desires.
Thinking about this, Qin Yuan felt extremely helpless and didnāt look at Mr. Liu again.
He was completely disappointed with him and didnāt want to speak anymore.
