In the morning, when the sun came out, Xu Qi's face was a mess; her eyes were swollen and squinted into slits.
She had been waiting for Yang Qimu to call, but not a single call came all night. At that moment, she felt extremely distressed and pained.
She even started to wonder if this was what she wanted.
Is this really everything she wanted?
Just then, her phone rang.
Yang Qimu called, and she gripped her phone tightly, unsure of what to do...
She was very nervous, extremely nervous...
The phone stopped ringing.
She looked at the screen, feeling very sad. Why did they stop playing like that?
This is so insincere.
The phone rang again soon, and this time she answered without hesitation, "Why are you calling me again?"
"Qiqi, I'm sorry, there were just too many people yesterday, I couldn't help it."
Men, you know, have to save face in public. Where are you? I'll come find you, okay? I'll apologize to you, okay? I'll kneel down and apologize, okay?
His voice was so humble, it was heartbreaking to hear...
Xu Qi finally spoke up, "I'll send you the address, come over and we'll talk. I have no intention of forgiving you."
Xu Qi is still very angry and it's impossible for her to forgive him so easily.
"Okay, okay, I'm coming right now."
Yang Qimu arrived quickly, wearing the same clothes as yesterday, looking unchanged.
“Qiqi…”
Yang Qimu looked at Xu Qi and kept slapping his own face, again and again, with great force. "Qiqi, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It's all my fault for being incompetent. It's all my fault, I'm not good enough, I did something wrong."
I shouldn't have made you angry, I shouldn't have made you sad, and I shouldn't have let you leave home alone and live outside.
You must have been very scared last night.
I said I would protect you, but I'm so useless, I can't take care of you.
I love you so much, please forgive me, okay? Please?
Xu Qi felt terrible seeing Yang Qimu like this. She really liked Yang Qimu, but he had disappointed her too much.
"Qiqi, don't worry. When I become successful and your family accepts me, we'll have a grand wedding."
I will give you everything at that time, do you believe me? Now we still need to work hard, we need to achieve something so that your mom can see it, so that your mom's friends can see it, so that they know that I really love you, and that I really want to become a better person for you.
Let's let time prove everything, shall we?
Xu Qi nodded through her tears, which was considered an agreement.
Xu Qi followed Yang Qimu back, only to find that the others were gone, and they didn't reappear. This made Xu Qi realize that Yang Qimu had truly changed.
Two months have passed.
They were doing alright, cooking together and looking for work together. Although they were still short of money and not living a very good life, at least they were both quite happy.
However, they still have to face the hardships of life.
Yang Qi's monthly salary wasn't enough to cover his expenses, so Xu Qi had to go out and look for work, but she couldn't find one that satisfied her. The life she wanted didn't seem so wonderful.
They would even argue, sometimes to the point of no return.
The love between the two of them seems to have been worn away by life, and they can no longer find its original form.
The shining qualities that Yang Qimu once possessed seem to have gradually become blurred, until they can no longer be seen.
She can't see it anymore, she can't see his good points anymore, even though she wanted to be with him so much back then.
The two of them argued every day about what groceries to buy, what to cook, and why Xu Qi hadn't found a job.
"Xu Qi, stop being so picky. Wasn't your previous job pretty good? It had a three-month probation period and you even got paid."
Also, when is your mother coming back? Go visit her often.
The gentleness in Yang Qimu's eyes had long since vanished, and his speech had become harsh.
He had always thought that Xu Qi's mother would compromise, but more than two months have passed and she still hasn't.
His time is running out.
"I don't like that job. The hours are long, the environment is bad, and the pay is low."
Xu Qi also wanted to find a suitable job, but she hadn't found one yet. She didn't want to force herself to do a job she didn't like, and she didn't want to lower her standards.
As for what the future holds, that's a matter for the future. Right now, she just wants to find someone who suits her taste.
"Yang Qimu, you used to say that you would support me no matter whether I had a job or not. How come you've changed your mind so quickly!"
Xu Qi didn't have much confidence when she said this. If she was very sure that the two of them loved each other before, she was really not so sure now.
She had told her mother so firmly back then that they would definitely be happy, but now…
Xu Qi forced herself to speak, "Back then, in order to be with you, I severed ties with my mother. I will never go back. We need to work hard together, you understand?"
Yang Qimu did not answer.
Xu Qi went out to look for a job.
The company she was interviewing with was an advertising agency. Once there, she started talking at length, saying that she wanted to emphasize family, friendship, and love.
The interviewer was like, "???"
"Our task is for you to design advertisements that can sell, not to express your feelings!"
