Chapter 425 Concern
So, there is indeed such a thing as fate between people.
Just like Xia Qingqing.
Before, she only thought that Song Zhili was a gay man with good character, nothing more.
But on this stormy night.
Amid the noise of wind, rain and thunder, she couldn't hear what Song Zhili said as he opened and closed his lips.
The light bulbs in the corridor were dim and flickering, unable to penetrate the heavy rain, and she couldn't see the expression on Song Zhili's face.
This happened at the beginning of spring, just before summer, and several months had passed since the Song family broke off the engagement.
Logically speaking, if Xia Qingqing hadn't known about it, she would not have known why Song Zhili ran downstairs of her building when it was raining heavily.
But at that moment, some bits of information about Song Zhili that I had inadvertently heard in the past were connected together at this moment.
Xia Qingqing was not a fool. She had long understood that the Song family's words sounded nice. They said that Song Zhili lost his parents when he was young, and his uncle and aunt felt sorry for him, so they gave him up under their own names.
But everyone knows that they are just trying to climb up the social ladder by letting their sons take over other people's identities.
Xia Qingqing also heard about the Song family's commotion at the army. At the time, she just thought that the Song family had a lot to lose. It was not easy for Song Zhili to have such a large family. She went back and told her sister about this incident as a negative example.
Now I understand that it's not that the family didn't love their son, but that they loved their own son too much, so they treated other people's son like an animal.
It has been such a long time since the breakup, but Song Zhili has remained calm. It’s not that he doesn’t care, but that he has not received any news at all.
She immediately understood Song Zhili's grievances.
Xia Qingqing has the personality of an eldest sister. Compared with her own spoiled and spoiled younger sister, she has stronger empathy and maternal instinct.
When Xia Zhizhi heard this, she laughed at Song Zhili while clicking her tongue: "It must have been quite cold in Beijing at that time, but he braved the rain to come downstairs. He is indeed young and full of vigor. As expected, art comes from life. There is a reason why the play sings like that!"
Xia Qingqing just felt sorry for him.
Xia Qingqing also went through a period of time when she felt very depressed, and she can understand what people want to do when their emotions are at their extreme limit.
Lesbians are like this. Once they feel pity for a gay man and start to feel sorry for him, that's when their love begins to flutter.
Moreover, the man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried, and they are both talented and beautiful, so why can't there be some progress?
At first, Xia Qingqing didn't realize that she had other thoughts about Song Zhili. It was only after they kissed each other a few more times that she slowly came to her senses.
Nowadays, most of the gay men of her age with similar family background are married. As for the remaining unmarried ones, some have partners, while others have some minor problems.
So most of the blind dates her family arranged for her were younger than her.
As for gay men, they mature late and tend to be childish when they are young.
Xia Qingqing couldn't help but wonder why this person was like this. Song Zhili was younger than them and he wouldn't be like this.
Once she had this thought, she gradually came to her senses and refused to go on blind dates again.
The elder of the Xia family tentatively asked Xia Qingqing what she meant.
Xia Qingqing revealed a little bit.
Xia Qingqing felt that the elders of the Xia family would not agree. After all, the quarrel between the two families before was so ugly. He was a little hesitant for a while. After all, he had always been sensible and considerate, and did not want to embarrass his elders because of this matter.
But the elders of the Xia family only made Xia Zhizhi’s own guess.
Xia Qingqing has been obedient since she was a child and has never fought for anything for herself. If she really likes Song Zhili and must be with him, they probably won't object.
The elders' attitude was unclear. They were probably worried that Xia Qingqing still had a desire to repay her gratitude. After all, Song Zhili was Wang Fang's grandson.
Given Xia Qingqing's personality, it doesn't seem difficult to understand why she would have such an idea.
Xia Zhizhi propped up her chin and asked Xia Qingqing: "Sister, if, I mean if."
Xia Qingqing gave her a look, indicating that she should continue.
"If your grandma and parents don't object, and you marry him, what if you find that you don't like him that much later, or you like someone else?"
Xia Zhizhi feels that she has some insight into human nature, but while human nature is simple and traceable, it can also be subject to complex changes.
She couldn't guarantee whether Xia Qingqing really liked Song Zhili or whether she was just experiencing a rebellious phase that was delayed.
As a human being, after being well-behaved for so many years, it's time for him to go crazy.
But the cost of marriage and divorce these days is different from that in later generations. If it is just because of the rebellious period, then you still have to consider it carefully.
Xia Qingqing glared at Xia Zhizhi and said speechlessly: "Am I such a fickle person in your heart? After all, I am a few years older than him. It would be fine if you don't worry about him changing his mind in the future, but you worry about me instead."
Xia Zhizhi said with a grin, "He doesn't dare to laugh."
Although Xia Zhizhi has a relatively normal outlook on major issues, that's because those major issues do not affect her personal interests.
But in private, she is actually a person who helps her relatives but not her husband.
She could fully understand the mentality of the ancient emperors who forced some young talents into the princess's mansion to entertain their daughters.
If nothing unexpected happens, Xia Zhizhi will definitely live longer than Xia Qingqing.
As long as she is still alive, Xia Qingqing doesn't care who she chooses as her husband in the future. As long as Xia Qingqing still likes that person, that person will have to act for her all his life.
Xia Qingqing thought for a moment and said seriously, "I don't have the thought that I can't live without him, but looking at the single gay men around me, at the moment, I really don't have any feelings for the others.
If I have to find someone to marry and have children, I would have no problem with that, but I always feel like it's not quite right.
As for what happens after marriage, who knows? We’ll talk about it later.”
Xia Zhizhi touched her chin and said, "Then you have made up your mind. Why don't you just tell your parents?"
Xia Qingqing paused for a moment: "There shouldn't be any problem with my parents. I'm just worried about my grandfather. He currently has a lot of opinions about the Song family. And the Song family, hey, I do have some concerns about this aspect."
"Did Song Zhili say anything?" Xia Zhizhi asked.
Xia Qingqing looked worried: "He has a cold relationship with the Song family and hasn't been back for a long time, but you know his family. If I really get together with him, I don't know if he will come back to visit me in the future."
Anyone who meets such a group of relatives would think twice before doing anything. Song Zhili was unlucky to be born in their family. He enjoyed all the benefits and suffered all the disadvantages. But as a person, he cannot choose his own birth.
"Oh," Xia Zhizhi waved her hands nonchalantly, "Why worry about this? Let Song Zhili change his last name to that of Grandma Wang Fang. I think Old Man Song will die soon. When he dies, they won't have any relationship anymore. I don't think they can be related."
