Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After watching Fang Zikai enter the house, Qi Bufan called Aunt Jin again. When he heard Aunt Jin say that she had seen Fang Zikai go home, Qi Bufan turned around and went home.
His house was very close to Binjiang High School. When Fang Yusheng gave him this house, he had his eyes on the fact that it was close to the school. At that time, no one expected that the person who should really live in this house would leave not long after.
When he got home, Qi Bufan glanced at the house that had not changed at all.
A few years had pa.s.sed. Ever since that incident, Dai Chukong had moved out of this house. Now, she was in her fourth year of university and would graduate and enter society next year. Although Qi Bufan had never seen Dai Chukong, he paid attention to her life.
He heard that Dai Chukong had already started her interns.h.i.+p at the television station. It was said that her results were very good and she was very appreciated by the seniors. When he heard this news, Qi Bufan was proud.
His daughter was outstanding.
However, at the thought of the child’s feelings for him, Qi Bufan felt tired.
He went to the kitchen to pour himself a cup of cold water and drank most of it in one gulp. After drinking the water, Qi Bufan took out his phone and found Dai Chukong’s number. He really wanted to call Dai Chukong and ask her if she had any plans to spend Christmas with her friends or go home.
He wanted to ask Dai Chukong if she was on vacation on New Year’s Day. Would she be back?
He wanted to ask Dai Chukong if she was going home for winter vacation.
What he wanted to say to Dai Chukong the most was—
Come home.
But he could not.
He could not lower his head on this matter. Once he did, it would be a mistake. That child had already confessed her feelings for him. If he lowered his head once, he would lower his head several times in the future.
He was an adult. He knew what was right and what was wrong. He knew that taking a step forward was endless h.e.l.l. He would not pull Dai Chukong into the abyss of h.e.l.l.
At this thought, Qi Bufan became more determined.
After turning off his phone, Qi Bufan stopped thinking about Dai Chukong and went straight to the bathroom to take a shower.
…
During this period of time, Fang Yuqing had been especially busy.
She had to work and visit Jiang Wei and Qiao Jiusheng in the hospital, but the two of them were in different hospitals. Jiang Wei was hospitalized in the People’s Hospital, and Qiao Jiusheng was hospitalized in the Deep Sea Private Hospital. The two hospitals were especially far apart.
Usually, Fang Yuqing would go to the People’s Hospital to visit Jiang Wei today and visit Qiao Jiusheng at the Deep Sea Hospital the next day. In short, when she got off work these few days, Fang Yuqing was either on the way to the People’s Hospital or the Deep Sea Hospital.
At the entrance of the hospital, she saw the old lady selling mangosteens Binjiang City did not produce mountain bamboo. Mangosteen was transported from the southern region. The rarer it was, the more expensive it was. In the south, mountain bamboo was considered medium-priced, but in Binjiang City, it was very expensive.
Fang Yuqing bought five kilograms of mountain bamboo and carried them to visit Jiang Wei.
When she arrived at the door of the ward, she heard Jiang Wei talking to Secretary Jiang. She stood outside the door for a while. When the door opened, Secretary Jiang walked out with his computer. The two of them looked at each other and greeted each other.
Secretary Jiang left with her laptop bag. Fang Yuqing pushed the door open and walked in.
Jiang Wei thought that Secretary Jiang had lost something and did not look up. He lowered his head and flipped open the doc.u.ment. He asked her, “You dropped something again?” It seemed like Secretary Jiang often dropped something and returned halfway.
“Shan Zhu, do you want some mangosteens?”
Fang Yuqing’s voice sounded. Jiang Wei quickly looked up.
Fang Yuqing was wearing a pink waist windbreaker. She was tall and had a thin waist. No matter how one looked at her, she was very charming. Jiang Wei looked at her deeply before asking, “Where did you buy it?”
As he spoke, he reached into the plastic bag and took out a mangosteen. He peeled it and ate it.
Fang Yuqing also sat down to eat the mangosteens.
As she peeled it, she said, “I bought it at the entrance of the hospital. It’s 18 yuan a catty. It’s quite expensive.”
Most of the girls Jiang Wei knew were rich people, but compared to those girls, Fang Yuqing’s family background and personal wealth were ranked the first.
However, she was also the only rich lady Jiang Wei knew who would despise the price of mangosteens and eat three bowls of rice at an ordinary restaurant.
She was straightforward and likable.
It was really to his liking no matter how he looked at it.
Realizing that Jiang Wei was staring at her, Fang Yuqing gave him a playful look. “Why are you staring at me?” Fang Yuqing gave Jiang Wei a charming look and asked him, “Am I very good-looking?”
“You look good.”
“How good?”
Jiang Wei smiled and said, “You’re in my heart. I won’t even get enough if I look at you for a year or two.”
Fang Yuqing raised her eyebrows and remained silent.
Jiang Wei added, “I want to see you for the rest of my life.”
Fang Yuqing’s heart beat faster. She lowered her head and continued to peel the mangosteen without saying anything.
Jiang Wei stopped smiling and became serious. “I said, seeing you makes me want to keep you for the rest of my life.” Jiang Wei paused and his Adam’s apple rolled up and down. He asked Fang Yuqing, “Do you agree?”
The man’s tone was serious.
His serious tone made Fang Yuqing feel that he was not asking her such an ordinary question, but asking her if she was willing to marry him.
Fang Yuqing did not avoid Jiang Wei’s question. She clapped her hands and did not continue peeling the mangosteen. Instead, she met Jiang Wei’s dark gaze.
“Jiang Wei.”
Jiang Wei’s throat rolled as he hummed softly.
Fang Yuqing said, “Change the question.”
“Huh?” Jiang Wei was stunned and did not follow Fang Yuqing’s train of thought.
Fang Yuqing’s expression was a little serious.
Seeing that her att.i.tude had become serious, Jiang Wei also changed his sitting posture. His heartbeat suddenly slowed down.
What was she going to say?
Fang Yuqing said, “If you ask me if I’m willing to be your girlfriend, perhaps I’ll be willing to answer.” After Fang Yuqing finished speaking, she saw that Jiang Wei seemed to be stunned.
Jiang Wei did not expect Fang Yuqing to say that.
His heart stopped beating. The next second, it beat even faster. “Qingqing, I want you to be my girlfriend. Do you agree?” Today, Jiang Wei’s EQ was finally working for a while and he understood what Fang Yuqing meant.
Fang Yuqing was not in a hurry to agree.
She said, “Jiang Wei, you have to know what it means to ask me to be your girlfriend.” She was not asking Jiang Wei a question. She was telling Jiang Wei about the problems they might face in the future.
Fang Yuqing said, “Jiang Wei, I’ve had a joke-like relations.h.i.+p. I value this relations.h.i.+p more than anyone else. If you have the guts to fall in love with me, if you have the guts to sleep with me, you have to have the guts to face the unbearable past and rumors about me.”
“When we appear in public together, they won’t say anything to our faces. Behind our backs, they’ll definitely point fingers at us. They’ll say that I’m a broken shoe and you’re a man who picks up broken shoes.”
“Even so, do you still want to be with me?”
