Chapter 61: Reconciliation~~~ My wife has forgiven me, I want to drop Xiaozhen...
"quadtant kill!"
An excited female voice announced on the phone that the enemy team had been wiped out. Fang Kaize was overjoyed and was about to return to the city to show off when he saw Qi Yu tightening his cotton jacket and pressing the door handle to go outside.
Fang Kaize quickly controlled his game character into the defense tower and shouted at the door: "Yuzi? Where are you going?!"
Qi Yu glanced back at him, not intending to lie, "Feng Ji is here. I'll go wait for him at the door."
Fang Kaize: "So it's Feng Ji who's here. I thought it was..."
etc? ? ?
Who is coming???
However, before he could react, Qi Yu had already walked out of the house in the wind and snow.
Fang Kaize's house is in the middle of the street, close to everything. The road in front of the courtyard is built very wide because fruits are often transported out for sale.
Qi Yu was waiting at the door, looking at the white clouds flying all over the sky, his mind unconsciously becoming a little blank.
He didn't expect that he would see Feng Ji again so soon, and this meeting was proposed by him.
During the waiting time, although my mood was complicated, I was surprisingly calm.
It seemed that he had always believed in his subconscious that the entanglement between him and Feng Ji would not end so easily.
The wind outside was very cold, and the snow seemed to be much heavier than before. The cold wind was mixed with large snowflakes, making it difficult for Qi Yu to open his eyes.
He tightened his hat, lowered his head and eyes, trying to minimize the contact of his cheeks with the cold wind.
It was really cold. Qi Yu felt like he was about to freeze into an ice sculpture after being outside for less than a minute.
If Feng Ji doesn't come in five minutes, he will go back to the room with the heating on.
Time passed minute by minute, and the snow under Qi Yu's feet was compacted by him. There were messy footprints of snow boots all around. Qi Yu exhaled a breath of white air, and when he was about to turn around and leave because of the cold, a few rapid gasps came from far away. The squeaking sound of the soles of his shoes stepping on the snow was particularly abrupt in the howling cold wind. Almost the next second after Qi Yu heard the sound, a tall and familiar figure appeared in front of him in the blink of an eye, blocking most of the wind and snow for him.
Qi Yu was stunned. His originally calm mood began to boil over involuntarily the moment the man appeared. His heart was beating in his chest. The "boom boom boom" sound of his heartbeat seemed to be even more violent than the sound of the wind around him, occupying Qi Yu's entire mind without any explanation.
Qi Yu suddenly looked up and saw Feng Ji's handsome face, which seemed a little blurry in the gloomy weather.
The man looked quite haggard, his chest wrapped in heavy clothes heaving violently, as if he had been running all the way here, panting, his face full of anxiety.
The pair of sharp eyes pressed under the brow bones suddenly turned red the moment Qi Yu raised his head.
Seeing the red at the corners of the man's eyes, which were mixed with sadness and fragility, Qi Yu's mind went blank for a moment, and he spoke somewhat helplessly, "You..."
The next second, he was tightly embraced in a broad embrace.
With his cheek pressed against the man's chest, the throbbing of his heartbeat made Qi Yu's ears numb. Before he could raise his hands to push him away, Feng Ji grasped both of his shoulders and restrainedly led him out of his arms.
Qi Yu looked up at him in surprise.
According to Feng Ji's previous character, if he didn't refuse, he would hug him here forever. But now, with his emotions out of control, he only hugged him for a moment. It can be seen that his leaving this time really scared the other party.
"I'm sorry." Before he could say anything, Feng Ji spoke first, "I came here because... I saw the location of your Moments. I don't have a tracker installed!"
When she said this, even her hand holding his shoulder was shaking, as if she was afraid that he would misunderstand her.
Qi Yu pursed his lips and said calmly, "I know. Sister Tong just called me. Thank you for taking care of Grandma Wang. As for the medical expenses... send me a bill when the time comes, and I'll pay you back."
"If you don't want it, pay it back!" These words sounded as if they were completely breaking off a line with him. Feng Ji's eyes suddenly became even redder. "I voluntarily paid for grandma's treatment. You don't have to pay me back... Don't abandon me."
What he said was so pitiful, like a stray dog that had traveled thousands of miles to return to its owner, only to be cruelly abandoned. It seemed as if he would burst into tears in front of Qi Yu in the next second.
"Baby, can you give me another chance? I was wrong before. I shouldn't have pretended to be a location expert and shouldn't have lied to you. I've figured it out. I'll tell you everything you want to know. I won't hide anything from you anymore."
Feng Ji's voice began to tremble, and his eyes were fixed on the young man who had been lost and found again, trying to find even a trace of pity on his face.
Qi Yu opened his mouth and wanted to say that he didn't want to listen anymore, but looking at the expression of the person in front of him who was obviously panicking but still trying to pretend to be calm, his mouth seemed to be stuck and he couldn't say anything.
Qi Yu knew that Feng Ji was so nervous now that if he told anyone, Feng Ji would be in great pain, just like the week before he resigned, when every day was extremely painful.
But at the beginning, his appeal was to solve the problem, rather than being controlled by emotions and torturing each other.
The half-minute silence seemed like a century to Feng Ji, until Qi Yu sighed barely perceptibly and whispered to him, "It's cold outside, come in and talk."
After saying that, he broke free from Feng Ji's hand and turned to walk into the yard.
Feng Ji stood there in a daze. At this moment, he was like a pardoned prisoner. A flattered light flashed in his eyes. He followed carefully and impatiently, even his steps were very light, for fear of making any loud noise that would make Qi Yu change his mind.
Qi Yu was walking in front, thinking about how to explain to Fang Kaize later. He pressed the door handle and pulled the door outwards. Fang Kaize, who was lying behind the door listening attentively, was caught off guard and jumped forward, almost falling flat on his face.
Qi Yu was so startled that he took a step back, his back bumping into the chest of the man behind him. Looking at Fang Kaize who stood up awkwardly with the help of the door handle, Qi Yu blinked, "Kaize...what are you doing...?"
People act busy when they're embarrassed. Fang Kaize scratched his head and moved away, trying to cover up his embarrassment with a dry laugh. "Haha, well, I was just a little worried when I saw you hadn't come back. It was so loud outside that I didn't hear anything."
"It's not a secret. It's okay if you heard it." Qi Yu said, moving aside to reveal the man standing behind him, and asked softly, "I want to tell him something. Do you mind..."
Fang Kaize looked at Qi Yu, then at the man with red eyes standing behind Qi Yu. He blinked, then suddenly rushed to the sofa to pick up his phone and charger. "You guys, talk, talk. I'm hungry. Let's go to the beef noodle shop next door for afternoon tea. Let's go!"
After saying that, he slipped away as if greased.
As soon as Fang Kaize left, Qi Yu and Feng Ji were the only ones left in the living room.
The door was closed, and the wind and snow were completely kept out.
Qi Yu sat back on the sofa where he usually stayed. Feng Ji walked carefully beside him and chose a seat opposite him.
Fang's father and mother are still busy in the orchard at this time and will not be back before eight or nine o'clock. Fang Kaize knows that they have something to say, so he will not disturb them.
He spent the entire afternoon listening to Feng Ji's explanation.
The two looked at each other. Feng Ji took a deep breath and said calmly, "I shouldn't have kept it from you. At that time... I was very afraid that if you knew my past, you would think I wasn't someone worthy of entrusting your life to."
Qi Yu wanted to say that he was not such a person, but seeing Feng Ji's body as tense as steel even when he started to speak, he knew how difficult it was for him to speak about this matter and how much mental preparation he had to put in.
Qi Yu simply shut his mouth and looked at the man in front of him as if he were a complete listener.
As if he had noticed the change in his attitude, Feng Ji seemed to relax a little after his subsequent confession.
As Feng Ji narrated, Qi Yu seemed to be able to see through the man's dark eyes and see the past that the other party tried hard to hide.
Feng Ji was born into a wealthy family. When his grandfather was alive, the next heir to the Feng family was his father, and his father married the daughter of the Qin family, who grew up with him as a child and was Feng Ji's mother.
With the two families joining forces, Fengfu's position as heir became more secure.
Not long after they got married, Feng's father and mother were very loving and harmonious with each other. Outsiders all admired their dreamlike love, and they were worthy of being childhood sweethearts who grew up together.
Feng Ji's mother also thought so. They grew up together, her first love was Feng's father, and she never thought about marrying anyone else during her growth journey.
Feng's father doted on her, and soon they had a child. Feng's mother, who fell in love, poured all her maternal love into the fruit of their love.
But the night before Feng's mother was about to give birth, Feng Ji's grandfather passed away very suddenly.
The next day, Feng's mother was pushed into the operating room and gave birth to Feng Ji. At this time when she needed care the most, Feng's family was busy with the funeral of Feng Ji's grandfather. Except for her biological parents, no one had the energy to take care of her.
The mood of the mother who had just given birth fluctuated greatly, but although she felt a little depressed, she also knew the priorities of things and did not show any dissatisfaction.
When Feng's mother finally waited for her husband to come to the ward to see her, she found that Feng's father seemed to have become a different person overnight. As soon as he entered the ward, he scolded her for being unlucky and saying that the child she was carrying was of unknown origin and had killed her grandfather.
After scolding, she slammed the door and left without even looking at the newborn baby.
Her husband's unreasonable scolding and indifference caused Feng's mother to suffer from postpartum depression. Even after she was taken back to the Feng family's old house from the confinement center, Feng's father never came to see her once.
By chance, she overheard a conversation between the former housekeeper and a servant in the old house, and learned from them the truth that Feng's father had cheated on her during her pregnancy and had a child with his mistress who was one day older than Feng Ji.
The reason why Grandpa Feng Ji died was because he learned about this matter and was angered to death by his unrepentant father Feng.
The day the old man died was the day the mistress's child was born.
Postpartum depression and her husband's infidelity during pregnancy dealt a heavy blow to Feng's mother, who was unable to recover from the blow. Her mental state soon deteriorated, and she often lived in her own imaginary world of marital love. Occasionally, when she woke up and remembered everything, she would have an emotional breakdown and smash things in the house.
Ever since Feng Ji started writing, his mother seemed to have two personalities in his eyes.
One personality is a loving mother immersed in fantasy, who will give Feng Ji all her motherly love, teach him how to write and draw, praise him for being sensible and cute, and teach him to be a child that makes his father proud when he grows up.
The other personality is a madman who will curse Feng Ji with all kinds of vicious words after waking up.
When he was little, it was fine; whenever his mother lost control, Feng Ji would be taken away by the servants. But as Feng Ji grew older, his face, from certain angles, often reminded his mother of his father, who was enjoying himself with his mistress. So young Feng Ji became a vent for her resentment.
Feng Ji was not allowed to bow his head at home, otherwise his mother would slap him to the ground and curse him as a shameless beast who abandoned his wife and children. When Feng's mother came to her senses and found that she had recognized the wrong person, she would hug Feng Ji with heartache and comfort him softly.
And precisely because Feng's mother could see the shadow of Feng's father in him, her desire to control her husband after being betrayed was indirectly transferred to Feng Ji.
She couldn't control her cheating husband, but she could control her young son.
When the servants discovered that her mental state would become stable after she had vented her anger on Feng Ji and would not torture other people, they stopped helping Feng Ji.
This situation repeated itself over and over again, and being suppressed, insulted, and experiencing an extreme lack of security became Feng Ji's daily routine.
This kind of life continued until Feng Ji was eleven years old. That day was Feng Ji's birthday. Feng's father rarely returned to the old house and brought many gifts to Feng Ji, his son whom he had neglected for a long time. When he learned that Feng Ji's academic performance was very good, he said a lot of words to encourage him to keep working hard.
Feng Ji feels both unfamiliar and familiar with his biological father.
He felt strange because, although this man was his biological father, he had only seen him a few times in his life; he felt familiar because his father's name appeared in his mother's mouth every day, sometimes as a fond memory, and sometimes as an ugly insult.
So no matter how gentle the man in front of him was, Feng Ji never said a word in response.
His gloomy personality made Feng's father very dissatisfied, so he became the topic of discussion and Feng's father and mother started arguing.
Father Feng blamed Mother Feng for not taking good care of her son and raising him to have such a taciturn character.
Feng's mother cursed Feng's father for being a jerk, saying that not only did he cheat on her during her pregnancy, but he also failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a father.
The two people quarreled until their emotions got out of control. Feng Ji, who wanted to mediate, was thrown to the ground. The whole old house was filled with roars and sounds of smashing. Until Feng's father yelled, "You are like a shrew now. Yang Wan never talks to me like that", the mother's madness came to an abrupt end.
However, what followed was an even more frenzied counterattack.
The dinner knife that fell to the ground was caught by the out-of-control woman, and then a bloody massacre broke out.
Feng's father was stabbed more than a dozen times in the aorta, blood splattered, and the whole living room was filled with blood flowing from his neck. Feng Ji, who was only eleven years old, sat blankly behind the overturned sofa. From his angle, he could see his mother's arm waving and his father's terrified and hideous face.
That night, the Feng family mansion was completely out of control. The police brought Feng Ji's grandparents, took away his mother who was bloodthirsty, and also took away his father who was lifeless on the ground.
The servants who witnessed everything were so frightened that they couldn't even speak clearly when they were taking the statement.
As an eyewitness, Feng Ji was also taken to the police station. After the statement was taken, he fainted without warning. When he woke up, he was already in the hospital ward.
Because of the great shock, Feng Ji was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder and was treated in the hospital for a long time. Only when his behavior was normal again was he taken back to his grandparents' old house.
After returning to the old house, he discovered that his mother, who was supposed to have been locked up in a mental hospital, had been taken back by his grandparents through some unknown means.
His grandparents told him that his mother's illness had improved a lot and she would not lose control so often anymore, so he should take good care of his mother and not make her angry.
The servants in the old house were replaced, and the bloodstains on the floor were cleaned up. But Feng Ji knew that even if the floor was cleaned, everything he had experienced would not end.
It was today that Feng Ji understood a truth: the reason he was treated like this and had no way to fight back was because he was too weak.
Because of the imbalance of power, his biological mother can insult and suppress him at will; because of the imbalance of power, his grandparents can send him back to his mentally ill mother regardless of his wishes.
Only when he is strong enough and can control everything in his own hands can he completely escape from this foul quagmire.
So when he came of age, when his grandparents brought him into the company as the heir of the Feng family to check and balance those shareholders, Feng Ji began his own counterattack.
On the day he took complete control of Feng family, he kicked out all those who opposed him. The entire Feng family became his one-man show, and Feng Ji's life was reshuffled from then on, and he no longer had to be manipulated by others.
He sent his grandparents abroad in the name of retirement care, and the woman he once loved and feared was completely placed under house arrest in the old house, and had not stepped out for so many years.
When he stood at the pinnacle of power, even if he heard insults from his biological mother again, he would no longer feel a trace of fear.
However, the desire for control formed in extreme environments is like a leech attached to one's bones. The lack of security makes him want to control something the more he cares about it.
When he was weak, he wanted to control power, but when the Feng family grew stronger under his leadership and he had money, power and status, nothing could arouse Feng Ji's desire for control deep in his heart.
Time can heal everything. Many times he even thought that he was infinitely close to being a normal person. As long as he didn't say it, who could tell that he had experienced such a terrible period in the past?
Until Qi Yu appeared, the desire that had been suppressed for ten years once again swept over Feng Ji.
As love grows wildly, the desire for control also returns, along with the distorted inferiority complex formed by constant suppression in childhood.
Feng's mother often said that he had half of her blood in him and was a madman at heart. The end of his life would be to live alone and never receive any love.
Before meeting Qi Yu, Feng Ji scoffed at this and never took this curse to heart.
However, after meeting Qi Yu, he realized that he still cared.
If Qi Yu knew about his tragic and embarrassing experience, knew that he had a mentally ill murderer mother and a scumbag father who cheated on his wife during her pregnancy, and knew his true appearance hidden under his normal appearance, would she still love him?
Would Qi Yu think that he was also a lunatic, a mentally abnormal pervert, and that he even felt sick when he saw him, just as his mother cursed, and was unwilling to give him any love?
His morbid desire for control made him do the wrong thing, and the panic of inferiority when he was discovered made him stop trying to explain.
He was like a collection of contradictions. Because of his selfish desires and cowardice, he hurt his lover twice.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
"I want it both ways. I can't control my own meanness."
Feng Ji spoke for too long, his voice was filled with bitterness, his eyes were fixed on Qi Yu's face, and he didn't even dare to breathe too hard.
"I know I was wrong. You can hit me or scold me, but I'll tell you whatever you want to know."
"I'm going crazy these days without you. Don't break up, don't leave me..."
Begging, filled with humility and fear, continued to flow into Qi Yu's ears.
He received too much information in an instant, and for a moment he didn't know what expression to use to face Feng Ji.
The man's confession was without reservation, and precisely because of this, Feng Ji seemed both hateful and pitiful.
His tragic past shaped his twisted personality, in which Feng Ji played the role of the victim.
But as someone who has to endure Feng Ji's twisted personality, Qi Yu is also a victim.
The difference is that Feng Ji's desire for control is mixed with a love so strong that Qi Yu can't let it go, so he can give Feng Ji another chance after being heartbroken and sit here calmly to listen to Feng Ji's explanation.
The long silence between the two made Feng Ji feel suffocated. He desperately wanted Qi Yu to give him a quick death, but if Qi Yu really intended to abandon him completely, he would be completely unable to bear it.
His nails had dug deep into his palms. Feng Ji closed his eyes tightly, his body shaking uncontrollably with fear.
Torment, anxiety, and fear tightly wrapped around him at this moment.
When Feng Ji's emotions were already becoming precarious due to the tug-of-war, a sigh that sounded both helpless and calm suddenly came from the opposite side.
Feng Ji suddenly opened his eyes.
Qi Yu stared at him intently and spoke very slowly, "Can you promise that after I forgive you this time, you will control your emotions, stop stalking me, stop lying to me, and stop installing anything on me or in my house that can monitor me? Can you give me the freedom and respect I deserve as a partner?"
Feng Ji left the sofa almost the next second, knelt on one knee in front of Qi Yu, and promised impatiently: "I promise, I can do everything you say!"
"If you don't believe me verbally, I... I asked Lawyer Liu to draft this!" As he spoke, he took out a drafted share transfer contract from his mobile phone with trembling hands and placed it in front of Qi Yu.
"I'm transferring half of my shares to you. If I commit the same offense again, you can simply sell your shares to any other shareholder, and the largest shareholder of Feng's company will change hands. I've already stamped and signed this contract. Once you sign, it will officially take effect."
"This is the most important thing to me besides you, I..."
Qi Yu interrupted him before he could finish.
"Do you know what share transfer means?"
Feng Ji didn't say anything, just looked at him steadily.
Qi Yu sighed again, raised his hand, and raised his index finger. "One last time. If I find out, your promise today will be empty words, and you will never have the chance to see me again in the future."
The moment he finished speaking, Qi Yu felt as if a hurricane was blowing in front of him. The next second before he reacted, he was already in the man's arms.
Feng Ji's breathing was heavy, perhaps because he was too excited or because he couldn't believe it, but slowly, the panting in his ears turned into sobs.
The man buried his face in his collar, and tears rolled down his face as they slid into the gap between his neck and collar, leaving a wet mark on Qi Yu's heart.
He slowly raised his hand, placed it on Feng Ji's head, and touched the man's head for the first time in a long time.
