His Genius Wife Is A Superstar novel Chapter 1307

Chapter 1307 - Inferiority Complex

Long Jinjing's lips trembled but she didn't deny her best friend's words.

Chen Fei continued her rant. "I always tell you this. You're so smart, Jing. What's more, you were amazing in your studies when we were still students and have become even more amazing now that we're working. That's why I just don't understand why you always become so unconfident when it comes to yourself as a person.

"You've always had an inferiority complex about your illegitimate birth, I know that. But girl, this is the modern times. Who the fuck cares? Those who still do are idiots and that includes you! So snap out of it. Do you hear me?"

Chen Fei didn't wait for Long Jinjing to respond. She stood up and started pacing back and forth in front of her friend while getting more and more fired up.

"Your birth situation isn't your fault at all. That's something you have no power to change. But you have the power to change yourself and the direction of your life! I can't continue watching you become so stuck in your inferiority complex. It's so toxic!

"And now you even found another avenue to make your inferiority complex worse. So what if Xiulan didn't gain a lot of weight during her pregnancy? Most normal women gain weight when they become pregnant, so that bitch is the one who's abnormal! Big deal! She's her and you're you.

"People only see how Xiulan maintained her overall figure but they didn't see how much she suffered behind the scenes during her pregnancy. Unlike you who's smoothly sailing through your pregnancy with barely any health issues, Xiulan really endured a lot just to carry her twins and give birth to them safely. We all know how often she got ill and literally passed out during her pregnancy. I know it, you know it!

"So don't fucking tell me that you envy her! She had drawbacks and you have yours. But you know what? Yours isn't even that serious. Sure, you've gained a lot of weight now, but with a lot of hard work and perseverance, I know that you can eventually lose all the extra weight after you give birth. Your man is all muscles. What's his use if he doesn't even help you with this little thing?

"I'd rather have you healthy and temporarily overweight than be like Xiulan who had been abnormally slender but ill all the time while pregnant. My gosh, Jing! We work at Orchidia where we promote the value of being beautiful inside and out, and yet here you are, one of the executives feeling ugly and fat and just so fucking inferior!"

Unlike Long Jinjing's earlier defeated appearance, she looked a lot better now. Her best friend's harsh words were hurtful and even offensive, but she still appreciated them. It wasn't her being masochistic. It was her being responsive to a harsh awakening.

She felt like her mind was clearing from a dark and suffocating place of her own doing. The inferiority complex was still there but it wasn't dragging her to the lowest depths anymore.

"I know, Xiaofei," she whispered.

Chen Fei narrowed her eyes. She still looked skeptical but decided she had said enough for today. If Long Jinjing really understood and started changing her outlook to a more positive one, then good. But if not, then Chen Fei would just roll her sleeves and start mouthing off again.

She couldn't allow her best friend to dig a deeper hole and bury herself with her own pathetic demons. No way. She wasn't Chen Fei if she didn't take action.

Chen Fei plopped herself in the other armchair again. Now that she finished her tirade, exhaustion started catching up with her.

Long Jinjing stood up and toddled to the refreshments corner to pour a glass of water for her friend. [Read official chapters on W e b n o v e l (dot) com. Please stop supporting piracy. Also follow author on Instagram: @arriacross]

"Thanks." Chen Fei chugged the entire glass of water, not at all concerned by her unlady-like behaviour. _{freewebnøvel.coɱ}
