Chapter 11 Mr. Qi, will you marry me?
Qin Zhaoli picked out a few key points and said, "She has always liked Gu Yuchen. She was not in a good mood after the breakup. She has adjusted her mood well these days. Uncle, you and aunt should stop criticizing her. No one is more miserable than her."
Wen Xingzhi sighed again. Qin Zhaoli heard sobbing from the other end of the phone and she immediately understood that Zhihan had been scolded.
"Okay, Uncle Wen, I'll go see Zhiyan tonight, so don't worry."
"Hey, thank you Zhaoli."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Ling said to Wen Xingzhi, "I don't care about that, but my daughter can't suffer in vain."
Shen Ling took out her cell phone and called Zhao Wan. This time, Wen Xingzhi was so angry when he learned about the situation that he did not stop his wife at all.
After the call was connected, she spoke directly without waiting for Zhao Wan to speak: "How did you educate your son? You beat our Zhixian just because he broke a cup? I have never hit my daughter since she was a child, but Gu Yuchen not only beat her but also made her ears tinnitus. We can't afford such a person in our family."
Zhao Wan was stunned. She couldn't believe that Shen Ling was talking about her son. She replied, "Is there some misunderstanding? No matter what, Yu Chen would never do anything to Zhi Xian."
"Go ask your good son yourself." After saying that, she hung up the phone.
-
She got off the elevator, opened the car door and got into the driver's seat. Her eyes were sore and blurry, and tears were falling one by one.
She now hates Gu Yuchen very much. She pretends to be mature and stable, but she is actually rotten inside.
Her heart was filled with bitterness, grievance and not being understood. She didn't know why it turned out like this. She had done nothing wrong, but everyone was blaming her.
His hands were on the steering wheel, and they were trembling slightly.
She heard the sound of a car horn, but she ignored it. After a while, there were two knocks on the window. She turned her head and saw a familiar face.
Qi Yanjing.
She opened the car door and hugged Qi Yanjing, choking with sobs.
Qi Yanjing was slightly startled when he saw her tearful face. This was the third time he saw her cry. She felt like she was about to break into pieces, and he was afraid that she would disappear if the wind blew.
The moment she hugged him, his whole body froze. She buried her head in front of him and sobbed softly, her crying was heartbreaking. He couldn't help but clench the hands hanging at her side and slowly moved them to her back, wanting to pat her a few times to comfort her, but thinking that they were just casual acquaintances and he didn't even know her name, he finally let go.
Suddenly, Miss Wen sobbed and said, "Mr. Qi, can you marry me?"
Yes, she was just taking revenge impulsively. Gu Yuchen always felt that she had to be with him, and her parents were talking about getting a marriage certificate and praising Gu Yuchen everywhere, so she would marry someone else.
If he was already surprised that she hugged him, then her words now made his pupils tremble.
Qi Yanjing stood there in a daze for a long time before he came to his senses. He slowly pulled away Miss Wen who was hugging him, and seeing her big red eyes still filled with tears looking at him, he wiped away her falling tears with his fingertips.
He felt a little reluctant, but he said solemnly, "You can't do this. You can't just marry a stranger you've only met a few times and don't even know his name just because of an impulse."
Wen Zhixian's mind was dizzy and she couldn't hear anything else. She only knew that he didn't want to do it. She thought it was normal, because who would marry a stranger for no reason like her?
"Oh, sorry to bother you." She stepped back and tried to get into the car, but was stopped by Qi Yanjing.
He sighed silently in his heart, "How can you drive in this state? I'll take you home."
What he understood from what Miss Wen said just now was: Since you don't want to, then sorry for bothering me. I will ask other strangers if they want to marry me.
"Thank you." She sat in the passenger seat. Qi Yanjing glanced at his own car across the road, sat in Miss Wen's driver's seat, started the car and took her back.
The last time I gave her the keys, I remembered the route, and it wasn’t far from the cafe.
"My parents liked Gu Yuchen very much. They thought it was my fault when they broke up with him without asking me the reason. It seemed like I didn't do anything wrong. I just broke a cup that Gu Yuchen's ex-girlfriend gave him, and he beat me." She spoke softly and slowly, just wanting to speak out the depression in her heart. It was too uncomfortable to keep it in.
Qi Yan Kyoto took every word he said to heart. What kind of thing is this? You were just beaten by me, but I lost the cup that my ex gave me... It's quite ironic.
After a while, he finally spoke, his voice neither too loud nor too soft: "But you can't use your marriage to retaliate against others. You should get to know this person better. To put it bluntly, if you marry someone whose values don't match yours, he'll think you're just playing on the swing even if you hang yourself."
Hearing what he said, Wen Zhihan pursed his lips slightly, seeming to agree.
Parking the car outside the community gate, he couldn't help but worry about her condition. He hesitated for a while before saying, "Shall I take you upstairs?"
The two walked in side by side.
This was the first time he appeared alone in a single woman's home. The home was simple and elegant, and the layout was very comfortable.
Wen Zhixian changed his shoes and lay on the sofa, his voice weak: "Thank you for taking me back."
Qi Yanjing's eyes fell on Wen Zhixian's face and saw that she had closed her eyes and seemed to be asleep.
The cell phone in his pocket vibrated, and he immediately took it out, pressed the answer button, and went to the balcony to answer the call.
A male voice rang out from the other end of the phone: "Qi Yanjing, where are you? We said we were going to have dinner together, where are you?"
"I have something to do, you can eat by yourself. My car is on the side of the road, you can drive there to eat, and then come pick me up in the evening after dinner."
"You..." Before the other party could say anything, Qi Yanjing said, "I'll transfer the money to you."
The other end smiled and said, "Okay, call me in the evening and I'll pick you up."
After hanging up the phone, Qi Yanjing looked at Miss Wen lying on the sofa, walked out of the balcony to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, looked around, took out a few dishes, and there was a bag of pork ribs in the fresh-keeping area, which he also took out.
He took off his black windbreaker and was about to put it on a chair, but when he saw the sleeping Miss Wen, he gently covered her with the coat, rolled up his shirt sleeves and went back into the kitchen.
Wen Zhixian slept for about twenty minutes. When she smelled the fragrance in the air, she thought it was Zhaoli and Kairui coming.
He rubbed his eyes and went into the kitchen. Before he saw anyone, he called out, "Zhao Li, Kai..."
After seeing clearly that it was not them, she touched her neck and asked, "Mr. Qi, are you cooking?"
"You're awake." He had just finished his meal and was about to leave.
He guessed that Miss Wen hadn't even eaten because of what her parents had said, so he decided to make a meal before leaving. Unexpectedly, Miss Wen woke up at this moment.
"Dinner is ready for you. I'm leaving now." He lowered his rolled-up sleeves and smoothed out the wrinkles.
