"...I don't want a divorce, so I came up with this way to delay it."
Ouyang Xiuqi stammered.
Ji Yunhua looked at him as if he were an idiot.
"Do you know that allergies can be fatal?"
"Know……"
"You know I've been messing around?"
Ouyang Xiuqi hung his head like a big dog that had just made a mistake and was being scolded.
Ji Yunhua was both angry and annoyed.
She had never seen anyone who didn't take care of their health.
And the reason he was torturing himself was—he didn't want to divorce her?
Does this person find marriage troublesome and too lazy to marry another woman to cover up his preference for men?
But she still wanted some romance and poetry.
She can't be a married woman and be all lovey-dovey with other men, can she?
A good reputation may not be very useful, but it's better to have one than not.
So I asked him, "Why don't you want a divorce?"
"I...I..."
Ouyang Xiuqi was so nervous that it took me several tries to finish speaking.
I love you.
Ji Yunhua: "???"
She reached out and touched the man's forehead.
Warm.
No fever.
How come you can't even tell people apart anymore?
Do you know who I am?
Ouyang Xiu was bewildered.
Isn't she Princess Mingzhu, Ji Yunhua?
Could there be other hidden identities?
"Aren't you Yunhua?"
"Of course I am," Ji Yunhua said irritably, "I'm just afraid you'll mistake me for Zhao Xiaopang."
"How is this possible!"
Ouyang Xiuqi's eyes widened.
The difference between Zhao Xiaopang and her is as great as the difference between a grain of sand and glass. How could he possibly mistake her!
Her worries are completely absurd.
Ji Yunhua chuckled: "Since you haven't mistaken me for someone else, why did you say you love me?"
Ouyang Xiuqi: "???"
She felt that he was saying this to Zhao Xiaopang.
What kind of logic is this!
"How could I possibly be in love with Zhao Xiaopang!"
He was utterly shocked.
Why do you have this idea?
Ji Yunhua retorted, "If you don't like Zhao Xiaopang, why did you always spar with him when we were in Nandan?"
Ouyang Xiuqi: "..."
It was all to defeat Zhao Xiaopang, to show off his power, and to let her know that he was no worse than Zhao Xiaopang.
This person saw them fighting over her, but instead of feeling jealous, she thought they were the ones in love.
Really...
Ouyang Xiuqi couldn't find a suitable word to describe it for a while, and then he remembered a sentence that Xiao Qingyin had said: "Those with a rotten eye see people as gay."
It turns out that Ji Yunhua also has a keen eye for spotting homoerotic undertones.
He said irritably, "I'd rather have my eye on a rock than Zhao Xiaopang."
"Why? Doesn't he suit your taste?"
"..."
It's more than just aesthetically unappealing.
The genders aren't even right!
There are so many complaints, even Ouyang Xiuqi doesn't know how to find the right words.
"From beginning to end, the person I've always loved is you."
He said with a solemn expression.
Ji Yunhua: "???"
"Have you forgotten what you said to me the day my brother came to see me? You said that this was the first time in your life you'd realized you were attracted to a man."
Ouyang Xiuqi: "!!!"
That's because he thought she was a man, that's why he confessed his feelings to her like that!
"I don't actually like men; it's because I fell in love with you that I started to think I liked men."
Ji Yunhua was dumbfounded.
This idiot has always liked her?
She's been misunderstanding for so long.
Why didn't you say so before?
Ouyang Xiuqi gave her a resentful look: "How was I supposed to know you had those thoughts?"
No wonder she remained unmoved no matter how much he tried to win her over, and even mistakenly thought that he was in love with Zhao Xiaopang.
It turns out that he had already been labeled as a homosexual.
He even thought she had someone else in her heart.
etc.
She thought that his liking for Zhao Xiaopang didn't conflict with the fact that she had someone else in her heart!
Ouyang Xiuqi's heart jumped into his throat.
Since we've already gone all out today, let's just lay everything out on the table.
Do you like Zhao Xiaopang?
Ji Yunhua looked puzzled: "Of course I like him."
Zhao Xiaopang was her best childhood playmate.
Ouyang Xiuqi's heart almost shattered in two.
Fortunately, before his heart broke, he remembered this person's unusual thought process.
"I'm not talking about liking someone as a friend, I'm talking about liking someone as a lover."
Ji Yunhua shook her head: "I don't like it."
Zhao Xiaopang: You two, that's enough! You took the dog out for a walk and then put it back on the leash, didn't you? Did you even consider the dog's feelings?
Ouyang Xiuqi felt much more at ease.
"Then let's not get a divorce, okay?"
Ji Yunhua was a little confused; she hadn't figured out how to respond to Ouyang Xiuqi.
In her eyes, he had always been similar to Zhao Xiaopang.
Of course, the two of them had a past relationship, so it wouldn't be fair to say that he was exactly like Zhao Xiaopang.
There are still some differences.
However, she always felt that she was still young and hadn't had enough fun yet, and had never seriously considered getting married and having children. She couldn't make a decision to settle down like this.
Ouyang Xiuqi is a good person and treats her well; he's a good match for her.
But the forest is so big, and there are still many trees she hasn't seen. How can she know if he is the most suitable one?
Seeing her hesitation, Ouyang Xiuqi's heart sank.
As expected, Yunhua didn't like him.
She never considered spending a long time with him.
