Chapter 38 We Can Still Be Friends
Li Qingqing's first reaction was that she had her period, but when she calculated the time, she found that her period would not come for at least five days.
She covered her aching lower abdomen and suddenly understood something.
Li Qingqing sighed, threw the bloody underwear into the trash can, turned around and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
The warm bath water flowed down her smooth white skin, and the pain from all over her body made her facial features twisted together.
After taking a shower, she carefully dried herself with a towel and dragged her tired body back to her room.
She covered herself with the quilt and thought about everything that happened that night.
Mu Xingyi confessed his feelings to her in a disguised way this time. She took out her mobile phone, opened the dialog box, and wanted to say something to Mu Xingyi, but she could not say anything except embarrassment and shame.
To be honest, she really didn't know how to get along with Mu Xingyi in the future, but fortunately tomorrow was the weekend, and she still had two days to relax.
As for Shen Lu, she must be very surprised. She didn't expect that her best friend and classmate, who usually looked honest, could do such a thing behind her back.
She really didn't have the face to see her again in the future. Although she knew that Shen Lu would definitely understand her if he knew the real reason why she committed herself to Lu Yan, she didn't want to involve anyone else before things were over. This was her own business, and she just had to face and digest it on her own.
Just when her thoughts were in a mess, there was a knock on her door and Lu Yan's voice came from outside.
"Are you on your period?"
Lu Yan must have seen the bloody panties she had thrown in the bathroom. He had previously suspected she was lying about her period because he hadn't seen the expected items in the bathroom trash can. Sure enough, he saw her drinking ice-squeezed orange juice at Shen Lu's birthday party.
Li Qingqing thought that everything that happened tonight was caused by her lying to him first, which made him angry and crazy and revealed their relationship.
If she had known that this little lie would lead to such a big disaster, she would never have lied to him at that time.
Thinking of this, she shouted to the door: "No, that's not my period."
Lu Yan outside the door stopped talking. He probably figured out the reason for the bloodstain. He hesitated in front of Li Qingqing's door for a few seconds, and finally left silently.
Through this incident, Li Qingqing finally understood what kind of person Lu Yan was.
He is paranoid, irritable, crazy and violent. She cannot afford to offend him at all. In the future, she will be even more obedient than she is now. She will be his plaything, cater to all his needs, and climb into his bed until she pays off all the debts she owes him in a year.
Li Qingqing lay on her side on the bed, curled up, and silently closed her eyes. From this moment on, she would throw away all her dignity and no longer resist. From then on, like a doll without a soul, she would allow him to manipulate, ravage, and trample on her...
The next day, Li Qingqing slept until she woke up naturally. The place where she bit her lips yesterday had scabbed over. Her body and limbs were a little sore because she couldn't stretch them when she had sex with Lu Yan in the car yesterday.
She lay on the bed, her whole body in a "big" shape, and lay there for another ten minutes before getting up.
At this time, Lu Yan had already gone to work. There was no such thing as a weekend for him. The company had a lot of things waiting for him to deal with. This was what he needed to bear as the only heir of the Lu family.
Li Qingqing first went to the bathroom slowly to wash up, then made herself a hearty breakfast. After the meal, she filled the bathtub with water and took a relaxing hot bath.
This was the first time she felt so relaxed since Xie Ze fell ill.
She no longer needed to rush out to work part-time to make money, nor did she have to face Chen Suyun's scolding and abuse.
She even felt inexplicably relaxed about her relationship with Lu Yan. This feeling was very strange, as if she had completely let go of some burden.
As expected, if you want to live with dignity, you have to endure the corresponding hardships. Now that she has decided to let go of her dignity, she feels completely liberated.
From now on, she no longer has to work so hard to deal with him and Mu Xingyi. Maintaining dignity and decency through lies is really too tiring.
In fact, from the moment she sold herself to Lu Yan for the one million, she no longer had any dignity, but she herself didn't believe it and still thought she had a choice.
Now, she finally recognized the truth of life and completely let go of the burden in her heart.
Isn't it just being kept? Isn't it just social death? It's not all her fault. She just wants to gain the people she wants to protect. What's wrong with her?
With this mentality, Li Qingqing picked up her phone and sent a WeChat message to Mu Xingyi.
"Doctor Mu, I'm afraid I can no longer study Chinese medicine with you. Thank you for your care over the past few days. I'm truly sorry for what happened last night. I didn't mean to hide it from you or embarrass you, but there are some things I can't help. I hope you can understand. Finally, if there's anything else the hospital needs me to do, please let me know."
After sending the message, Li Qingqing sighed deeply. The relationship between her and Mu Xingyi as master and disciple had come to an end, and her career once again fell into darkness.
Although she still doesn't want to give up Chinese medicine, if she finds a new master, it will probably cost a lot of money, and she can't afford it for the time being.
Five minutes later, Mu Xingyi sent her a reply.
"It's okay. I respect your decision. There's nothing to hand over at the hospital. If possible, I'd like to continue being your master. If you're having trouble with this, I hope we can still be friends in the future."
Mu Xingyi's reply was very sincere, but Li Qingqing no longer had the courage to work with him, so she thought about it and replied again.
【Of course, we can still be friends in the future. 】
Although this matter was quite embarrassing, if Mu Xingyi was still willing to be friends with her, she would of course be extremely happy.
Putting down her phone, Li Qingqing started cleaning. In fact, Lu Yan had a regular aunt come to the apartment every week to do a thorough cleaning.
But Li Qingqing really needed to find an outlet for her emotions by cleaning, so when her aunt came over as usual, she felt embarrassed and asked her to go back.
Unlike those elegant people who like to vent their emotions through fitness or running, cleaning is the best way for her to vent her emotions.
Li Qingqing enjoyed cleaning the living room, kitchen, and bathroom. Finally, she hesitated whether to clean Lu Yan's room as well. Thinking of what he had said before about having mysophobia, Li Qingqing decided to clean for him.
After all, she sometimes sleeps in this room, so it is like cleaning it up for herself.
When Li Qingqing was cleaning the cabinet, she saw some of Lu Yan's school things in a drawer, including his graduation certificate and many scholarship certificates he had received.
Li Qingqing flipped through the photos one by one, and finally her attention was attracted by a group photo. It was a photo of three men and one woman that was sandwiched in the high school graduation album.
