Yes, I have
Xu Xi never expected that her father would slap himself.
Father Xu pursed his lips tightly, closed his eyes painfully, took a deep breath, and finally sat down slowly. His tone was solemn, as if he was full of doubts about life:
"Is it because Dad did something wrong that you have such thoughts, or is it because your mom and I taught you the wrong way? How could you have such thoughts? How could you like girls?"
“…”
Xu Xi was originally standing, but when her father sat down, she slowly squatted down as well. She squatted in front of her parents' knees, listening to her father speak and ask these questions. She didn't know how to answer before, but now if she was asked to answer, she could answer:
"It's hard to explain things about feelings, but once you've made up your mind, there's no way to change it. You used to always tell me about your pursuit of Mom. At that time, you said you wouldn't marry anyone else but Mom. You persisted for a long time before you finally married Mom. You may not remember how you felt back then, but I understand how you felt back then, and I will continue to stick with it. I can't like anyone other than a girl, just like you can't like anyone other than Mom."
Xu Xi spoke with a firm tone. In the past, she always laughed at her father's love for her, saying things like "he'll only marry her mother." But today, she used this as an example to convince her father to accept her idea.
After hearing this, Mr. Xu fell silent. He wiped his face heavily with his hand, exhaled heavily, then suddenly stood up, turned his back to Xu Xi, and said lightly to change the subject.
"I'll go cook."
Xu Xi stood still, watching her father walk into the kitchen.
She could understand why her father didn't respond directly to what she said just now. He must need time to digest these things and also need time to slowly understand. After all, when she first knew that she liked girls, it took her a long time to accept the fact that she liked girls.
Xu Xi blinked, feeling a little sore in her eyes. She hadn't been able to give her father the best expectations. She sighed silently in her heart, then turned her head to look at her mother beside her. Only then did Xu Xi realize that her mother's eyes were filled with tears.
"Mom." Xu Xi sat next to her mother, cuddled close to her, and wiped her tears. "Don't cry."
Mother Xu sniffed and took two deep breaths before she calmed down. She looked at Xu Xi with a worried look and said to her:
"Do you know what your father and I have been through these days? You told us that you like girls, and how could you do such a thing as turning away when we have different opinions? You don't know how worried we are. We are worried that you will do something stupid." Mother Xu said these words with a sob. Halfway through, she couldn't help but pinched Xu Xi's head with her fingers, then closed her eyes and cursed, "You have no conscience", and two lines of tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.
Xu Xi felt uncomfortable and her eyes became hot. She sniffed and said, "Mom, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry."
She couldn't say anything else, just kept apologizing. Then she listened to her mother recount every minute of the torment she and her father had endured at home over the past few days. They were worried that she would become depressed because her parents didn't understand her.
Xu Xi comforted her mother, saying she wouldn't let it get to her head, but she also said she wouldn't go on a blind date or get married. She always insisted on her own ideas. If she hadn't died once and been reborn, she wouldn't even have thought about falling in love, but her parents didn't know.
I don’t know how long it took, but Mr. Xu had cooked the food and he invited them to come over and eat.
The three of them sat at the table, eating quietly, no one speaking. It was not until almost dinner time that Xu's father suddenly asked Xu Xi a question.
"You said you like girls, but are there any girls who like you?" Xu's father's tone was very serious. This seemingly simple question was actually telling Xu Xi that it was rare for girls to like other girls, and not everyone liked girls like she did. Even if they accepted the fact that she liked girls, where would she go to find a girl to date?
Are there any girls who like her?
Xu Xi froze in her tracks as she tried to put the rice into her mouth. She went over the question in her mind, and the first person she thought of was Chen Shuning.
Did Chen Shuning like her? He did, right? Just like Xiao Mu said, if he didn't like her, why did he coincidentally spend so many days with her? If he didn't like her, why would he bring her home and sleep in the same bed with her?
Xu Xi raised her eyes and looked at her father. Although she had not yet officially confirmed whether Chen Shuning would accept her, she did not ask Chen Shuning whether he liked her at all.
However, Xu Xi still told her father seriously: "Yes."
