Yu Anning kept her word. For a while afterward, she stopped answering calls from her daughter and parents. Every day, besides going to work, she would go home and enjoy time alone with Qi Wenyuan. They had already missed nearly thirty years, and with so little time left in their lives, they didn't want to waste a single day.
"What do you want to eat tonight? How about blackfish soup?"
Qi Wenyuan, wearing an apron, walked out of the kitchen. Even with an apron, the refined man still exuded a scholarly air. Although he was no longer the handsome young man he was thirty years ago, he had become much more mature.
“Okay, I’ll eat whatever you make,” Yu Anning said with a smile.
She wasn't a good cook, so Qi Wenyuan always did the cooking at home, and she just ate what he prepared.
Qi Wenyuan prepares nutritious meals for her every day. Fish soup is a common dish because it is good for cancer patients' recovery. There are also some nutritious vegetables and fruits, and the nutrition is well-balanced. Under Qi Wenyuan's careful care, Yu Anning's health is getting better and better, her complexion is better, and she looks much better than before.
"Good boy!"
Qi Wenyuan gently patted Yu Anning's nose with a doting look in his eyes before going to the kitchen to make blackfish soup. With nothing else to do, Yu Anning followed him in and watched Qi Wenyuan concentrate on cooking.
"Don't look at me like that, or I'll get so distracted I'll mix up the seasonings," Qi Wenyuan flirted in a serious tone.
"But I can't help it, I can't bear to sleep, I just want to see you."
"I will stay with you from now on. I will go wherever you go, and we will never be apart again."
Qi Wenyuan turned down the heat, and the two embraced tenderly in the kitchen.
Love knows no age; it's all about finding the right person. Even though they're nearing fifty, their love remains passionate and intense, even more so than when they were young.
Because we have lost it, we know how precious it is.
Having faced death, I now know how to cherish.
Because I'm getting old, I don't want to miss a single moment.
"Wenyuan, I really hate myself. Why was I so stupid back then? I argued with your mother. Maybe we wouldn't have missed each other, and maybe our child would be all grown up now."
"No, it's my fault. I shouldn't have left without saying goodbye. It's my fault."
Qi Wenyuan regretted it even more. He was too foolish when he was young. Because of Yu Anning's aloofness, he also harbored resentment in his heart, and he easily fell for his mother's trick.
Years ago, his mother handed him a letter written by Yu Anning. In the letter, she said that she already had a boyfriend and they were going to go to university together. She told him to be more considerate and stop bothering them.
He was completely stunned and heartbroken. He thought Yu Anning really had a boyfriend. No wonder she had ignored him for the past few years; she was afraid of upsetting her boyfriend.
But Qi Wenyuan hadn't given up yet and wanted to find Yu Anning to get to the bottom of things. However, Qi's mother said that Yu Anning had gone to her boyfriend's house for a visit. It was during winter break, so Qi Wenyuan went to the Yu family home. Yu Anning was indeed not home; her parents said she had gone to a classmate's house.
This proved that Qi's mother was right. Qi Wenyuan was completely heartbroken and, in a fit of anger, obeyed his mother's arrangement and went to university in the United States. Later, following his mother's arrangement, he married his ex-wife.
His heart is dead; it doesn't matter who he marries.
The divorce wasn't entirely his ex-wife's fault, because his heart was still with Yu Anning. He had been inquiring about Yu Anning and heard that she was married, had a successful career, had a daughter, and had a happy family.
