MTL - Extreme Pampering After Marriage-Chapter 737 last step
Chapter 737 The last step
Yu Qiu's eyes flickered slightly, leaned over to pick up the cigarette case on the coffee table, lit one, took a puff and exhaled a thin white smoke, swallowed and asked, "Then why are you looking for me?"
"Do you want me to regret crying and confessing to you, and then be filial to your mother and son, and have a happy ending?"
"I came today to bid farewell to you." Xie Tingxi's calm voice did not have any emotional fluctuations. He has never been so calm in so many years.
"Back when you abandoned me, it would be a lie if I said I didn't hate you, especially when the Xie family was about to fail, I really hated you, so much I wanted to bite off every piece of flesh on your body. Because It is said that a child is a piece of flesh that falls from the mother, I want to see if you don’t feel pain when you drop other flesh.”
Yu Qiu's jade finger holding the cigarette **** trembled slightly, and he pursed his red lips and said nothing.
"Now I understand that some people are born unworthy of being parents, and their selfishness and indifference are carved into their bones. They also carved these into my bones, making me no longer believe in feelings and have no expectations of humanity, but Now it's time for me to erase the marks you left on me."
He and Qu Huai'an are both the same kind of people. They were deeply hurt and influenced by their native families, and they couldn't give their sincerity to others, let alone give recklessly for anyone, and embrace love without reservation.
He did the same to Yun Youwei, and Qu Huaian did the same to Jiang Rang.
How can two people who have no sincerity and warmth embrace each other?
If he wants to warm Qu Huaian's heart, he must warm himself first, so he came to Yu Qiu.
Some things should be let go, and some people should say goodbye.
"Hiss", the cigarette **** burned to the fingertips, Yu Qiu came back to his senses, and said in a calm tone: "It seems that the girl has a deep influence on you."
Xie Tingxi pulled his lower lip and did not deny it, "Whenever I see her, I will not think of you, and I will not think of the road I have been running on many years ago. It's not that I don't hate you anymore, I just choose to be with this The world, choice and life, it’s up to you.”
No reconciliation, no relief, just forget it.
How many feelings are difficult to appease, how many broodings are slowly forgotten in time.
"Then I wish you what you want." Spend this life with the girl you like.
Xie Tingxi didn't speak, a man's voice came from the stairs, "Honey, this is..."
He turned his head and saw a man coming down the stairs, about his own age, wearing black pajamas, his eyes full of hostility.
"After so many years, you really haven't changed at all." Xie Tingxi smiled inexplicably, and got up to leave.
Yu Qiu got up to see him off.
The man tasted it: "Baby, did I not work hard enough just now?"
He said it to Xie Tingxi on purpose.
"Shut up." Yu Qiu turned around and gave him a cold look.
The man was even more aggrieved, "You murdered me, you murdered me for other men..."
Yu Qiu sighed helplessly.
Xie Tingxi looked back at Yu Qiu who was considering changing men, and suddenly said, "Mom..."
man:"?"
Yu Qiu was also stunned.
"goodbye."
After Xie Tingxi finished speaking, he smiled faintly, turned and left.
This is the last time he called her that, from now on he will treat her as dead, and they will never meet again.
Yu Qiu looked at the figure in the dark night, his eyes suddenly turned red.
…
After running back and forth, Xie Tingxi fell ill when he returned to Luoyunju. Fortunately, Mumu went to Lanyueju to make light bulbs, so there was no need to worry about infecting him.
Xie Tingxi had a fever, but he didn't want to take medicine, so Qu Huaian had to physically cool him down first. It would be fine if the fever subsided, otherwise he had to call a doctor.
He was lying on the bed, looking sideways at the woman who was wiping his palms. There was heating in the room. She was only wearing a loose thin sweater with a V-neck, revealing a beautiful collarbone and a slender neck. Her chest would breathe weakly. ups and downs.
"Don't you ask where I have been all night?" He said, his voice hoarse.
Qu Huai'an paused, as if deliberately following his will and asked, "Where have you been?"
"I'm going to say goodbye to my past." Xie Tingxi tightly held her slender wrist with his hot palm, "When will you say goodbye to the past?"
She forcefully pulled her hand from his palm, "I have no way to say goodbye to the past."
"why?"
“My past was full of pain, but with the warmth my brother gave me, if I say goodbye to the past, I’m saying goodbye to him.”
And she was unwilling to say goodbye to her brother.
Even if she has been trapped in the shadow of her brother's death, she is unwilling to say goodbye.
Xie Tingxi's eyes dimmed slightly, "Is he that important to you?"
Qu Huaian nodded without thinking, "It's very important."
There was no brother back then, she doesn't know where she is now, maybe she died, maybe she was sold into some devil's lair by human traffickers, life would be worse than death.
Xie Tingxi's jawline was tense, and he remained silent.
Qu Huaian's curled eyelashes trembled slightly, and hesitantly asked, "Why me?"
Xie Tingxi glanced at her, but still didn't speak.
She asked again: "Because I look like her?"
Xie Tingxi understood what she meant, and smiled, "You are not alike at all."
Yun Youwei is a woman who knows how to plan for herself, unlike her, who is smart and stubborn.
"Is that because of guilt, transferring the guilt towards her to me?"
She didn't believe that Xie Tingxi would really fall in love with her, there must be other reasons.
"Why should I feel guilty?" Xie Tingxi asked her back, "Yun Youwei is Yun Youwei, Qu Huai'an is Qu Huai'an, I can tell the difference clearly, but you can't tell the difference."
Qu Huaian stopped talking, and continued to help him wipe his palms.
Xie Tingxi held her hand again, and said stubbornly: "Qu Huainan's death was an accident, and I am partially responsible, but the crime does not deserve death. You can't just sentence me to death like this."
I don't know if it's because of illness, but his tone is somewhat childish.
"Qu Huaian, you have to like me. At least, you have to try to like me."
Because I like you so much.
Qu Huai'an didn't pull out his hand this time, but was silent for a long time, lowering his head and muttering, "I just don't want you to be disappointed in the end."
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Xie Tingxi's eyelashes drooped, and he clenched her hand tightly, "I am willing to take 99 steps, as long as you take the last step, just the last step..."
Qu Huai'an looked up to see that his eyes were lightly closed, his breathing was even, as if he was asleep, his mouth was open but he didn't say anything.
The clear but dull eyes stared at him quietly for a long, long time.
***
Xie Tingxi's cold dragged on for more than a week before he fully recovered, and Qu Huaian took care of him during this period.
It has been a year since Xie Yumu was brought back. Xie Tingxi did not rush back to the company to deal with work, but took Qu Huaian to the hospital.
Qu Huaian was stunned when he saw the previous foreign expert.
See you tomorrow
