Chapter 390 I'm Not Good Enough of You
Qin Keke blinked again to make sure that the person in front of her was not an illusion. She finally remembered what happened during the day. Her throat was dry for a moment and she nodded slightly.
Xu Li immediately and carefully helped her up, took a pillow and cushioned it for her to lean against the head of the bed, and personally poured a cup of warm water and fed it to her mouth.
Qin Keke took the drink and drank several sips. Finally, her dry throat felt hydrated. Her voice was still a little hoarse. "Thank you, it's all thanks to you for saving me today. Is Miss Jiang not here?"
Xu Li was originally quite happy when he heard the first half of the sentence.
Later on, he felt inexplicably sour. "She'll go back first. We still have some investigation work to do. But...how are you feeling? Are you dizzy? Are you feeling unwell anywhere else?"
His eyes and tone were full of concern.
This made Qin Keke very uncomfortable, "I'm fine."
In fact, she never thought that she could be redeemed after ending up like that.
God has been very kind to her.
She shouldn't have too many extravagant demands. The more greedy she is, the more doomed she will be.
"I'm sorry, there's something I haven't told you yet..."
She decided to confess all the wrong things she had done at Jiang Yao's company.
"I did something like that and should have been fired, compensated, and criticized. But Miss Jiang let me resign on my own for your sake, and now she's here to save me. I don't deserve her kindness at all."
Qin Keke's eyes were filled with sadness and pain.
Xu Li was deeply shocked and shocked: "You...why..."
"Because I'm jealous of her. I know that the person you liked before was her!" Qin Keke raised her head and looked at him with tears in her eyes. "I didn't understand before. Why did you want me to be your girlfriend when you obviously liked her and even collected her things at home? I felt like I was a tool..."
Her confession filled Xu Li with regret, "I'm sorry, I was..."
"You don't have to explain. I understand now." Qin Keke smiled in relief. "Miss Jiang is such a good person. She's willing to rescue those who once betrayed her. Who wouldn't like her?"
"I'm sorry..." Xu Li's expression was filled with guilt. "From the beginning, I used the wrong method and hurt you. It's my fault."
He always thought he was smart, calm and decisive, and would consider the consequences before doing anything.
Having been a lawyer for so many years, he should be rational enough.
In the end, he did such a ridiculous thing and hurt the feelings of an innocent girl.
"It's okay. You saved me this time, so we're even." Qin Keke was really relieved. After experiencing this disaster, she felt that nothing else could defeat her.
"No." Xu Li still felt that he hadn't done enough. "If you hadn't broken up with me, you wouldn't have been tricked back and ended up like this! I can help you sue your parents.
Their actions constitute the crimes of violently interfering with freedom of marriage and trafficking in women. Depending on the crime, they could be sentenced to two to ten years in prison. Are you willing to entrust it to me?"
He wanted to do his best to make amends and make her life better.
Qin Keke thought for a moment and spoke slowly: "Although they treated me badly since I was a child, I have always been well protected by my cousin. I thought that as long as I grew up, I could get rid of them. We would not interfere with each other and it would be as if I had never been born."
But later, her mother called her and said that her father was seriously ill and in critical condition, and asked her to come back to help.
She believed it out of weakness and ended up being locked up at home. She was then tied up and sent to the Guo family.
They treated her like an animal to be slaughtered, without any regard for her wishes.
At that moment, she finally lost all hope.
"If they can treat me like this once, they will do it a second time, a third time! As long as I am still their daughter, it will be difficult to escape. In this case, even if it is for my own protection, I have to ask you for help."
She still has her cousin to take care of, and can't continue to waste time with the Qin family.
"Okay, leave this to me!" Xu Li's brows finally relaxed, and his mood seemed to have improved a lot. "After that, you can come back to Kyoto with me."
"No." Qin Keke refused decisively this time. "After what happened this time, I've thought it through. I plan to stay and take good care of my cousin, while also working hard to help my hometown develop."
It is her dream to get out of the mountains.
But if her hometown is still a backward place, then what happened to her may happen to other girls.
She wants to help everyone with her efforts.
Xu Li seemed to have not expected her to give this answer. He was stunned for a moment and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Qin Keke turned to look at him and said with a smile, "Xiao Xu, I was ignorant before and did many things I shouldn't have done. Now I have grown up. You don't have to feel any psychological burden. We will still be good friends in the future."
Part ways amicably, maintaining the last bit of decency, this is the world of adults.
"Are you really going to break up with me?" Xu Li found himself unable to accept it. "Can you give me another chance? I will make up for it this time..."
"No, I'm not worthy of you." Qin Keke knew that he didn't love her, but was more out of responsibility and compensation, but what she longed for was a purer relationship.
So if not, she would rather give up.
Her firm attitude blocked the rest of Xu Li's words in his throat.
Just then, Ms. Li Shumei pushed the door open, carrying a lunch box. "Keke, that's great, you're finally awake."
"Cousin." Qin Keke was surprised. "How could you..."
Xu Li silently gave the space to the two of them and walked out of the room dejectedly.
In fact, he never thought that Qin Keke would reject him.
After spending some time together, he saw many shining points in Qin Keke, such as her tenacity, intelligence, and thoughtfulness, and she even had many resonances with him in spirit.
He gradually got used to that way of getting along.
At first I wanted to confess, but later I forgot to mention it.
Perhaps without realizing it, he had already been moved by Qin Keke's sincerity.
But now, after this series of events, she obviously wants to take back her feelings.
But Xu Li realized that he was reluctant to let go.
After a night of thinking, his thoughts gradually became clear.
Since she chose to stay, why can't I?
This is his hometown. Now that he has made a name for himself, shouldn't he do his bit to contribute to the development of his hometown?
This time, let him use his sincerity to impress Qin Keke.
