Chapter 56 — A Bit Dumb

　　【 001. He's so dumb, would that count as a secret? 】Su Yanyi felt that 001 was rather useful. At least she could complain to it when she was bored.

　　【 Mr. Master isn't dumb, he's just nervous because he loves you too much and cares about you too much. 】

　　Maybe it was because a bystander could see the bigger picture, or maybe 001 possessed naturally high EQ, but either way, what it said actually made sense. Su Yanyi was extremely surprised by that, but of course, she paid more attention to the content rather than the speaker.

　　She turned to stare seriously Qin Jiran, as if she was trying to confirm if what 001 said was true.

　　He noticed her peculiar gaze and asked with a trace of nervousness, "What's wrong?"

　　"Just thinking that you're a little dumb," she answered honestly, and very seriously.

　　That made him feel a bit wronged. He hadn't even done anything, so why was Yanyi calling him dumb?

　　But unbeknownst to him, his lack of action was exactly why she thought he was dumb.

　　Su Yanyi took in his speechless expression and suddenly thought that, well, being dumb wasn't such a bad thing. At least she wouldn't have to worry about being deceived.

　　For a woman like her, having a sense of trust for her partner was absolutely necessary. She even considered it the prerequisite for love, as she believed that only a relations.h.i.+p fostered by trust could thrive.

　　She would give up a relations.h.i.+p that only bore love, and not trust. Or rather, it would be more accurate to say that she would destroy the relations.h.i.+p, because admittedly, she was a self-centered woman with an unyielding desire for control, which must be complemented by a sense of trust. If she held the reins but lacked a sense of trust, then the relations.h.i.+p would end disastrously.

　　However, it must be mentioned that if it weren't for everything Qin Jiran had done for her in her past life, she would never have thought to appreciate him.

　　Qin Jiran tried to figure out where he had made a mistake, but to no avail. He had no choice but to ask her, helplessly and sincerely, "Yanyi, what did I do wrong? Tell me, I'll change."
