"I……"
"Think about it yourself... I'll move there tomorrow."
The inn is still open for business, so of course I can't move there right now. I really need to think about this matter carefully. It's not that I'm being dramatic; on the contrary, it's because I'm ashamed to face Yang Sisi. I feel like I've let her down.
...
Back at the bar, I asked Peach, who was mixing drinks, "Do you know about Sisi renting a house in Shanshuijian?"
Peach nodded and replied, "She only told me about this on WeChat this afternoon. What's wrong?"
"It's nothing... I just heard from her that you and Tie Nan are also planning to move there."
“Yeah, since the guesthouse is closing down anyway, we’ll have to find a new place to stay, so why not find the most comfortable one? ... I watched the video she recorded. That house, you can see Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake from the balcony, the environment is absolutely amazing!”
"oh."
"Do you want to move in with us? We can split the rent."
"The inn will be open for more than a month, isn't it a bit too early to be thinking about this now?"
"Is it early? The house has already been rented."
I didn't say anything, then found an empty spot and sat down. As I lit a cigarette, I thought of Ye Zhi and Yang Sisi again. They had both talked to me about broadening my horizons today. Ye Zhi gave me some advice, while Yang Sisi directly found me a platform that could broaden my horizons.
In comparison, I should be more grateful to Yang Sisi. Although it's still uncertain whether living in such a villa area can fundamentally improve her, at least it shows that she has good intentions towards me. Looking at myself, I only thought about sending her back to Shanghai, but I never cared about how she felt inside.
Perhaps, she really is a woman I can repent for!
...
After sitting there for a while, I received another call from Dai Qiang. As soon as I answered, he asked me with a smile, "Brother, did you go to the airport to pick up your wife?"
"Did you see the post she made on WeChat Moments?"
"Yeah, you definitely took the photos for her... I knew there was something going on between you two... Why would a woman cooperate with such a charade if she didn't have feelings for you? Does she really have no regard for her reputation?"
"If you were me, what would you do right now?"
"While she's still in Dali, quickly buy her a bouquet of flowers and confess your feelings to her."
I smiled and asked, "Do you think you know her very well, or do you think you know me very well?"
"You're asking this because you think I'm meddling, right?!"
"It's enough that you can feel it yourself."
"So what exactly do you want?"
"I think you should focus more on your work. Don't you have any idea what kind of place Shanghai is?"
I was the one lecturing Dai Qiang, but he just laughed and said to me, "I only called you because I had some free time. If you and your sister-in-law were really together, I wouldn't care. The problem is you're being so negative right now. If you really miss out, there'll be no going back... And you have to give your aunt and uncle an explanation, right? Are you really going to tell them that you and your sister-in-law were never together at all, and that you've just been playing with them all along?"
"You wretched creature... don't create a terrifying atmosphere for me!"
"Haha... Then you should put in a little more effort. I know how thick-skinned you are. Confessing your feelings shouldn't be difficult for you at all."
Dai Qiang's words left me a little dazed... It's not that I'm ashamed to confess my feelings, it's just that I always feel like I'm standing in a very low place, and if I don't step on something, I feel uneasy; I'm more worried that Ye Zhi will get tired of always "bending over" to talk to me, and Dai Qiang is at most just a bystander, he can just follow along and shout a few times, but he absolutely cannot put himself in my shoes and understand me.
