Chapter 62 The Final Concern
The banquet was filled with clinking glasses and toasts. Song Yilin stood beside Xu Qingmin, receiving blessings from various people. Anyone who didn't know the situation would think it was their engagement party.
Song Yilin felt uncomfortable, but she still maintained her composure.
When it was Wang Xiasheng's turn, Song Yilin could see the despair in his eyes. She thought he wouldn't come, but she didn't expect him to be so shameless.
He even took the initiative to toast Song Yilin, bowing much lower than her. Song Yilin took a small sip, while Wang Xiasheng drank it all in one gulp.
"I'll have to trouble you to give me more guidance in the future. I'm a magnanimous person and won't hold a grudge against a petty person."
She's not an adult; she just likes to fuss over things.
He ignored Wang Xiasheng and left directly.
Zhang Ren, however, was pragmatic and didn't come.
When Song Yilin went to the restroom, Wang Qianqian also came over.
"Are you unhappy?"
Wang Qianqian always seemed to be able to see through her mood at a glance.
"No, I'm just not ready to face everyone like this yet."
Wang Qianqian applied lipstick in front of the mirror; "You don't need to be too unhappy. Xu Qingmin has waited for you for 13 years and tried every means to win you back, but you just don't want to get married. He's probably too afraid of losing you again."
There was a loud bang in the toilet, and a person emerged from the squat toilet. It was Qu Xiao, whom Xu Qingmin had seen in his office during the day.
Song Yilin and Wang Qianqian looked at each other in bewilderment. How come they hadn't noticed that there was someone else in the restroom?
Qu Xiao's face turned pale, filled with rage: "You really are that woman who cheated on Xu Qingmin back then."
Wang Qianqian stood in front of Song Yilin: "What do you want? Want to fight?"
“I have no interest in fighting. Song Yilin, I underestimated you. After all these years, Mr. Xu still can’t forget you. Not only that, he likes you so much, yet you don’t want to marry him. What makes you think you can do this?”
Song Yilin finally understood why this beautiful woman was so hostile towards her; it turned out she liked Xu Qingmin.
It seems Xu Qingmin is quite popular with women.
Song Yilin gently pushed Wang Qianqian aside and said to Qu Xiao, "Why? Because I am his white moonlight, because I am the woman he loves most, because I am beautiful."
She doesn't want to get married, but that doesn't mean she'll be nice to women who are after her man.
"What's the point of you occupying the toilet without doing anything? If you have any conscience, let him go, or treat him well."
"How we, as a couple, get along is none of your business."
"So Xu Qingmin didn't tell you anything? Let me tell you something you don't know, and Gu Sinan doesn't know either. After you cheated on him, he suffered from depression for three years and almost died several times. It was me and his psychologist who saved him."
Gu Sinan had never mentioned that Xu Qingmin had suffered from depression, and Wang Qianqian was also shocked that someone as strong as Xu Qingmin could also suffer from depression.
Song Yilin's brow seemed to have been struck, and her heart seemed to be gripped with pain.
"Have you been by his side all these years?"
Qu Xiao shook his head: "If I were the one by his side, would your guilt be less? Unfortunately, no, Xu Qingmin's psychologist is my husband. He's always been all alone, with no one truly there for him. His parents' marriage is a mess, as is his sister's. His family doesn't understand, no one can understand that it's just losing you, what's there to be so upset about? But he just couldn't let it go. For three whole years, why were the windows on the upper floors of the Xu Group building locked? Why was the top floor locked? He recovered, you came back, and you, it seems, don't care about him at all, and even feel that he doesn't respect you. Have you ever respected his feelings, his sacrifices?"
Song Yilin's eyes were moist. At her age, it seemed that no matter how much she felt sorry for someone, she could no longer shed tears.
But the tears wouldn't come out; they were suppressed in my heart, making me feel even more suffocated and uncomfortable.
It seems she owes Xu Qingmin even more.
"Qu Xiao, am I an obsession for him?"
"Maybe so. Your departure made him fall into self-doubt and gradually despair of life."
Song Yilin washed her face with water, washing away the makeup she had put on.
When she turned back to face Qu Xiao, she had returned to normal.
"Qu Xiao, thank you for telling me all this."
After the banquet, Xu Qingmin had drunk quite a bit, and Song Yilin helped him into the car.
"Master, let's go to his apartment."
With his eyes half-closed and a hint of intoxication, Xu Qingmin said, "Let's take President Song home first."
"No need, let's go straight to the apartment."
Xu Qingmin couldn't understand Song Yilin, so he reached out and made her face towards him.
Song Yilin didn't say anything and rested her head in Xu Qingmin's arms.
Upon arriving at the apartment, Song Yilin refused the driver's help and told him to go home.
One person helped Xu Qingmin upstairs.
He had Xu Qingmin sit on the sofa and gave him some honey water.
Xu Qingmin's eyes were dull, his back was not as straight as usual, and he looked very dejected. He forced a smile and said, "Song Yilin, is this your last act of kindness? Have you decided to leave me again? Because I announced our relationship today without your consent."
Song Yilin felt as if her heart had been seized: "Xu Qingmin, I don't want to leave you, I just want to take good care of you."
Xu Qingmin's eyes were glazed over: "Really? But you've never been this nice to me before. You've never been this nice to me before. You went to the bathroom for so long. I thought you were going to leave without even giving me this much face. Thank you for saving me some dignity."
Song Yilin sent a text message to her mother, asking her to take a look at Bai Guanqun.
After hanging up the phone.
Song Yilin squatted down in front of Xu Qingmin.
“Xu Qingmin, listen carefully. I have fallen in love with you again, even more than before. Don’t keep worrying that I will leave. I will never leave again.”
Xu Qingmin opened his eyes and looked at Song Yilin uncertainly.
"Are these words of comfort or my true feelings?"
"What's on my mind!"
After saying that, Song Yilin took the initiative to kiss Xu Qingmin.
Xu Qingmin froze!
Realizing what was happening, he pulled Song Yilin into his arms and pressed her tightly against him!
He frantically extracted nutrients from Song Yilin.
Under the influence of alcohol, Xu Qingmin slowly released his suppressed emotions, whispering in Song Yilin's ear, "Yilin, I love you, please don't leave me again."
Xu Qingmin's words were tinged with sobs, but even more so with pleading.
Song Yilin wrapped her body tightly around him, giving him a greater sense of security.
"I won't do it again, I really won't."
She had promised her daughter she wouldn't marry Xu Qingmin, but it seems she's going to break her promise.
I drifted off to sleep in a daze.
In the middle of the night, Xu Qingmin suddenly woke up and hugged her tightly.
Xu Qingmin did not let go of his hand until morning.
Song Yilin tried to speak in the most relaxed tone possible: "Good morning! Shouldn't we get up and have breakfast?"
Xu Qingmin pinned Song Yilin down.
"It's the weekend today, no need to get up so early."
Oh right, she forgot, she thought that now that she was the CEO, she was entitled to take weekends off.
It's unbelievable that she earned the day she could have weekends off through her own hard work.
