Chapter 4 Confession
On the way home from school, it suddenly started to rain heavily. The raindrops as big as beans hit the ground, splashing water.
I stood at the school gate, looking at the sudden rainstorm, sighing helplessly. At this moment, a familiar voice came into my ears.
"Classmate Yao Qian, what a coincidence!" I turned around and saw He Qingyun holding a black umbrella and walking towards me.
I smiled and replied, "Yes, what a coincidence!"
He Qingyun walked over to me, looked at my wet hair and clothes, and asked with concern: "Don't you have an umbrella?"
I shook my head and replied, "But it's okay. My family will be here to pick me up soon."
He Qingyun nodded, then moved closer to me and raised the umbrella so that it covered both of us. "How about this, you wait with me for a while, or I can take you home."
I looked at him gratefully and said, "No, thank you very much. And my family will be here soon."
He Qingyun looked at me with a hint of tenderness in his eyes. He smiled and said to me: "By the way, I have always wanted to thank you for saving me that day, so... I want to treat you to a meal, is that okay?" There seemed to be a hint of nervousness in his tone, and his face couldn't help but turn red.
I was a little surprised, but I smiled and nodded, accepting his invitation. "Of course!"
After hearing this, He Qingyun smiled happily. He took out his phone, asked for my number, and added me as a WeChat friend.
"Then let's make an appointment. I'll let you know the specific location."
I smiled and said yes, but a ripple of emotion could not help but form in my heart. He Qingyun seemed to be a very careful and considerate person.
Just then, a dark car slowly drove up to the school gate. He Qingyun saw it and handed me an umbrella, saying, "Here, it's raining so hard outside, don't get wet. Remember to return it to me tomorrow!"
"Thank you!" I looked at him and thanked him.
I took the umbrella and watched He Qingyun get into the car and leave.
In a tea restaurant with an elegant environment.
He Qingyun was wearing a white casual suit, looking clean and handsome, and I was wearing a light pink long dress, looking pretty and lovely. From a distance, we looked like a sweet couple.
"Yao Qian, the food in this restaurant is really delicious!" He Qingyun introduced enthusiastically.
I looked around and saw a very elegant environment. The landscape paintings paired with the light purple lighting created a very atmospheric atmosphere. “It looks like a nice environment!”
"As long as you like it!"
I was the first to ask, "Is your trouble solved?"
He Qingyun smiled very cheerfully and said, "Don't worry, it has been taken care of long ago."
He asked softly, "What do you want to eat?"
"Anything is fine. You can order it. This is my first time here."
He Qingyun opened the menu with a smile and ordered a few dishes skillfully.
After a while, the dishes were served one after another, and they looked delicious.
"Try this signature dish, it tastes great." He Qingyun said as he picked up a piece and put it in my bowl.
I took a bite and it was indeed delicious. I couldn't help but praise it, "It's delicious!"
We enjoyed the food and had a pleasant chat. He Qingyun told me some interesting things that happened to him, which made me laugh out loud.
I felt someone staring at me. I looked up and saw Uncle Yu Sheng, who had sharp features and was handsome. He was wearing a black suit and sitting casually diagonally in front of me. Opposite him was his pure and lovely third wife.
Our eyes met. His look made me feel uncomfortable, so I immediately lowered my head. I really didn't want to say hello to him.
I said to He Qingyun, "I'm almost done eating."
"Okay, I'll go pay the bill."
He Qingyun got up to pay the bill, and we walked out side by side.
He Qingyun invited again: "Shall we go for a walk in the park in front?"
"Okay!" I replied.
He Qingyun and I walked into the park and strolled along the quiet path, our figures reflected in the sunlight.
Suddenly, He Qingyun stopped, looked into my eyes, and said softly, "Yao Qian, I want to tell you something."
I looked at him curiously, waiting for his next words.
He took a deep breath and said, "Actually, I've fallen in love with you since the first time I saw you. I know this may be sudden, but I don't want to miss this opportunity. Will you be my girlfriend?"
I was stunned, not knowing how to respond. My mind was in turmoil.
At this moment, a pair of butterflies flew by, circling each other. I felt the beauty of butterflies dancing in pairs. I looked into He Qingyun's sincere eyes, felt his heart, and a warmth gradually rose in my heart.
I smiled and nodded, saying, "He Qingyun, I'm willing! But we can't delay each other's studies."
He Qingyun was overjoyed when he heard this and nodded. Then he hugged me tightly.
…
During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, my mother asked me to take some gifts to visit my aunt and grandma. I went to my aunt's house first.
When I arrived at my aunt's house, I had just put down the gifts when I saw Uncle Yu Sheng and the first wife there. The first wife was sitting on the bed, tears of sadness rolling down her face like beads from a broken string. Uncle Yu Sheng looked impatient and smoked silently in the corner.
I've heard my mother tell the story of Uncle Yu Sheng and his first wife. They faced numerous difficulties in the early days of their business, but each time it was the first wife's family that lent a hand and helped them through the hard times. However, fate played a cruel joke on this family.
One day, a group of thugs harassed and harassed the logistics company. My uncle rushed to remedy the situation without hesitation, but unfortunately, the thugs pulled out a knife and stabbed him. In the nick of time, my eldest wife bravely stepped forward and blocked the fatal blow. However, this heroic act came at a heavy price: she was no longer able to bear children.
After careful consideration, Uncle Yu Sheng finally said, "Divorce!" This statement struck the first wife like a bolt from the blue, and her noble and elegant demeanor instantly vanished. She lay on her bed, weeping even more heartbrokenly, her grief tinged with despair, tears pouring from her eyes. Her aunt sat beside her, her heart aching, whispering solace.
The first wife suddenly raised her head, her eyes filled with anger and disappointment, and growled at Uncle Yu Sheng: "Yu Sheng, you are simply a heartless person!"
Uncle Yu Sheng took a deep breath and replied calmly: "I will ask the lawyer to prepare a divorce agreement and send it to you. At the same time, I will give you more financial compensation." After saying these words, he stood up resolutely, turned around and walked out of the bedroom.
