I want you to criticize me harshly.

"escape."

Just as Yi Shiwu said this word, Qi Yue's tiny voice came from the conference room, word for word, just one word.

This is my design concept this time.

"Escape from the doomsday, the last carnival."

"I want to lead everyone to escape from the life you dislike but cannot leave, the cage that imprisons your freedom."

The moment the words fell, there was sparse applause, thanking all the young people present for their resonance.

Qiyue knew that the young people would understand and support her. In this battle, Qiyue's bet was never on the quality of the drawings, but on the hearts of people, especially the middle-aged people who were unwilling to be lonely, did not want to look back, and could not let go of their lives.

Who doesn't have a few things that keep lingering in their mind over and over again, and they can't let go for the rest of their lives?

When Qi Yue looked at all the directors present again, the meeting room was surprisingly quiet.

"If the directors present have no doubts, we will start construction next week."

You have three minutes to wait for the final rejection from everyone present. No more waiting after the deadline.

"Thank you all for your recognition, I won't bother you any further."

Qi Yue bowed slightly and walked out of the meeting room with Tao Ran, leaving behind the directors staring at each other in disbelief and the young man who was secretly happy.

I have to say that Qiyue’s design this time has changed from the clear and simple style of the past, but instead displays the "sorrowful" literature to the fullest.

The irony is overwhelming. If you are in a high position, can you guarantee that your shadow will be straight?

Yi Shiwu and Lin Lei, who walked out of the 21st floor first, appeared in the coffee shop opposite the building.

"Aren't you surprised that you can come?"

"But I'm still surprised that you came." Yi Shiwu fought back unwillingly.

Seeing that Lin Lei did not respond immediately, he had already guessed what was going on.

"The agreement isn't working well, is it?"

Lin Lei laughed sarcastically.

"Usability is based on the premise of being used. I took the things out, but they didn't even look at them. Now they are still lying on my desk in their plastic wrap."

This one sentence immediately gave Yi Shiwu confidence and he started to think about it.

"Since Qiyue didn't see it, then she's not angry because of those four huge words. So, is Qiyue here because of me?"

Guessing Qi Yue's motive, he laughed happily, and this scene happened to fall into Lin Lei's eyes.

"Don't be so proud. I won't give up. It's still unknown who will win."

Seeing the opponent launch another attack, Yi Shiwu actually didn't want to accept it, but he had to respect the other party's wishes anyway.

Why not respect your opponent? Because if Qi Yue knew that she was being competed like a commodity, both of them would end up in a miserable situation.

"Well, is there anything else? No, I'll be leaving now. I've finished shopping."

Lin Lei watched the person in front of him hurriedly walk out of the cafe, and looked at his watch again. It was a quarter past five.

"It's so late, what is he going to do? Is he going to look for Qiyue?"

I opened the phone interface and looked at Qi Yue’s WeChat avatar, but I couldn’t send the words I wanted to say.

"Congratulations, it was wonderful."

Today's Qiyue reminded Lin Lei of Lan Qiyue in junior high school. She was a dazzling existence, like a gem, always emitting her own light no matter where she was.

This is completely different from Qi Yue when she was with Mu Jin.

"If I had chosen to move forward resolutely, would you, standing in front of me today, also risk your life for me?"

I looked at the half-full coffee cup in front of me, as if my life was only halfway through, not just right, and still not satisfied.

Computer store area in Haiyi Plaza.

"Hello, how can I help you?"

"Hello, I want to buy a computer with the highest configuration."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

After saying that, the clerk took Yi Shiwu to look at two computers for comparison, and finally chose the top-end version.

"What color do you want? This computer comes in four colors."

"I want this blue one, 15 inches."

The clerk slowed down his movements and said to Isshigo naturally, "For girls, 13 or 14 is better. They are small and light."

Yi Shiwu immediately understood what the clerk meant. It is rare to see such an honest salesperson nowadays.

"It's okay, I want the 15. My wife used to have poor eyesight, and I want her to have a smoother eye."

The female clerk smiled, expressing her approval of the man in front of her.

Yi Shiwu walked out of the store and drove to the hotel where Qiyue was.

The address of Rugui Hotel chain was told by Tao Ran. After today's meeting, Yi Shiwu secretly contacted Tao Ran and found out where Qi Yue lived.

Because the project has been finalized and will start next week, Tao Ran also has to return to Yangbin to prepare things for his six-month overseas assignment.

"Tao Ran, we've finally passed the first level this time. We need to keep working hard and leave these old men speechless."

Looking at the sister in front of me who can be considered my senior, I didn’t expect that under her serious appearance, there is such an unruly soul.

"Sister Qiyue, thank you."

A word of thanks made Qi Yue, who was picking up food, suddenly at a loss for words.

"Thank me for what?"

"If it weren't for you, I might not be able to come back after going back to Yangbin today."

"Tao Ran, you have to know that I only made some minor changes. Most of the design is still yours. If you want to explain why we won, it's probably because time has come."

"Is it time?" Tao Ran's eyes were full of confusion.

"Think about it, such a large venue is vacant, and there's a hotel underneath. If you don't take advantage of it and instead leave it idle, the money you lose by opening it for one day less is huge."

After being reminded by Qi Yue, Tao Ran immediately understood.

"Sister, it has to be you, otherwise I wouldn't have thought of it."

Looking at the big boy with glasses, Qi Yue simply said.

"Kid, read less books in the future and go out and play more when you have nothing to do."

After saying this, Qi Yue regretted it. She hadn't even walked around and seen everything, and now she was in prison for another six months.

Freedom is just around the corner!

The noisy atmosphere of the hot pot restaurant and the worldly smell swept away the fatigue of the two people over the past few days. The process was a bit difficult, but fortunately, the ending was good.

After parting, Qi Yue took a taxi directly back to the hotel room. When going upstairs, she was still sighing that she didn’t have to move and could continue to live here, and it was free.

When she walked to the door of her room, she saw Yi Shiwu who was in a dishevel. Qi Yue pretended not to see him, took out the room card and prepared to go in.

Seeing Qi Yue's indifference, Yi Shiwu consciously began to deliver his own short essay.

"Yueyue, I'm sorry I didn't tell you in advance. I'm guilty, and I hope you will criticize me harshly."

To be honest, Qi Yue was left in a state of confusion by Yi Shiwu's performance.

However, if small mistakes are not punished, do we have to wait until big things happen in the future to deal with them?

Qi Yue chose to turn a blind eye. After all, out of sight, out of mind. It’s not just men who are chauvinistic; women can have tempers too.

Just as Qi Yue entered the room and was about to close the door, a pair of large hands grabbed the door, pushed it hard, and entered the room.

Qi Yue took a look, said nothing, and went straight to the bathroom with her change of clothes.

"Yueyue, why don't you pay attention to me? I have already admitted my mistake." Yi Shiwu kept knocking on the locked bathroom door without giving up.

This was the first time the two had met since they parted ways with Wangyue. To be honest, the moment Qiyue saw Yishiwu, she felt soft-hearted. After all, he looked so haggard that it was hard to bear.

After Qi Yue came out, Yi Shiwu flatteredly talked about the big difficulty he was facing.

"Yueyue, it's already so late. If I go back, I'll be very sleepy. What if I fall asleep while driving?"

Qi Yue seemed to have thought of something. She got up from the sofa and walked to the suitcase. She took out her facial mask and began to take care of her skin leisurely.

Seeing that Qi Yue still ignored him, Yi Shiwu's legs softened and he started to serve her on his knees.

"Yueyue, I was really wrong. I will tell you everything from now on. I promise."

After hearing the word "guarantee" and seeing the person in front of him kneeling in a standard posture, Qi Yue suddenly wanted to verify how true this guarantee was.

"Okay, then give me the marriage certificate."

"Tear it off."

Yi Shiwu made up a reason without even thinking about it. I have to say, his mind was pretty quick.

"You ripped my nine dollars?"

"Yeah, otherwise why would I keep you around? Waiting for you to find an excuse to abandon me."

I have to say that the married Yi Shiwu is really bold, especially in front of Qi Yue, he is like a little child, acting unreasonable.

Qi Yue couldn't think of any good solution for the time being, so he could only give up the severe punishment of Yi Shiwu.

Seeing Qi Yue's soft-heartedness, Yi Shiwu immediately knelt down to serve her, took out the gift he had just bought and presented it to her.

"Yueyue, I know you are angry with me. I will never make decisions on my own in the future. This home belongs to both of us. We will share the good and bad times together."

Yi Shiwu had said everything, and Qi Yue was speechless. After all, he was her own teacher, and she couldn't just kneel there all the time.

He reached out and helped up the haggard Yi Shiwu. Just when Yi Shiwu wanted to hug Qi Yue, Qi Yue pushed him out.

Yi Shiwu looked at himself, covered in dust, handed the computer to July, and ran into the bathroom.

"Yueyue, can you lend me one of your clothes?"

Qiyue began to doubt her ears. Are the people who watch the moon so open-minded nowadays?

After rummaging through the box, I only found a large T-shirt. It was too big for me when I bought it in July. I planned to wear it as pajamas or when going out, so I gave it up for the time being.

I have to say, after changing into clothes, Ishigaki had an indescribable feeling.

"Thank you, Mr. Yi."

Qiyue pointed at the computer and expressed her gratitude to her husband. After all, Qiyue really needed a computer at this time. Without productivity, how could she be a laborer?
