Chapter 35 Choice

Only then did I realize that not only did I not complete the cards, but I also offside with Qin Yu! It was less than twelve hours before I promised Yaoyao last night! How could I do this? Thinking of Yaoyao's calm expression and decisive gaze, I suddenly felt cold all over, like falling into an ice cellar!

Qin Yu was still storming at me, but suddenly saw my eyes flashing, panic, and then he was worried, depressed, and stopped unconsciously: "What's wrong? It hurts?"

"Oh, no, I'm thinking about something else!" I looked at her and looked away. Qin Yu knelt on the sofa, climbed on my shoulder, and stared at me in a daze: "Are you... thinking of that girl?"

I sighed inwardly, lowered my head and didn't say anything. Things were made like this by me. What else could I say to Xiaoyu? If I didn't kiss her just now, or there was room for maneuver, but as the relationship broke out in an instant, some problems had to be faced. Finally, I realized that there was a kind of relationship that was a clear ending. After enjoying the process, I had to give up. The only way to avoid it is to not let her start.

Xiaoyu looked at me in a daze, looking very calm, but in my eyes, it became a kind of heartache.

I reached out and closed the strand of hair on her forehead and slowly said, "Xiaoyu, you said last night that you should solve your emotional troubles and find out who you like. This sentence is inaccurate. Sometimes it doesn't matter who you like. What is important is choice. Like someone does not mean you can accept someone. Feelings are often not the only basis for choice, but also responsibility, conscience, and a lot of things."

Xiaoyu's eyes flashed a few times, and finally there was a hint of pain or a hint of anger.

I didn't dare to look at her, and looked down at the ground: "The girl you saw last night is named Wang Yao. She is a good girl with a miserable life. I have chosen her, and it will last for the rest of my life."

Xiaoyu looked straight at me, her whole body was stiff, but she quickly relaxed and smiled at me. I quickly turned my head away, my heart full of sadness, so hard and bitter. Xiaoyu grabbed my arm and said softly: "Cheng Dong, I believe your choice is correct, tell me... about that lucky girl."

Suddenly, a burst of pain in my heart, and bitter water surged upwards, and I could feel the pain in her heart. If Yaoyao was lucky, what about herself? She respected my choice and made her own choice, and would rather suffer alone.

Xiaoyu leaned against me and said gently: "Cheng Dong, stop blaming yourself. It's me that I shouldn't flirt with you. I will be your confidante in the future, just like what you said... for the rest of my life!" Xiaoyu finally cried.

I could no longer hold her into my arms: "Xiaoyu, I'm sorry, it's my fault. I have a wife and Yaoyao. I shouldn't like you, I shouldn't make you suffer..."

"Stop talking, I'm so sad!" Xiaoyu hurried in my arms and cried helplessly.

My heart is about to break.

I thought we had nothing and didn't fall too deep. But I just had a few meals, chatting, talking and laughing. Even if I had some little Aimei, I looked similar to many colleagues of the opposite sex, but how could it hurt so much? The pain was as if my heart was cut by a knife, bleeding drop by drop. In less than two months, I have experienced too many, so that my life for more than 30 years could not last.

Xiaoyu suddenly stood up, wiped her tears, and smiled at me, "What are we doing? It's like separation from life and death, so what!"

I smiled, very bitter and sour, facing her hypocritical happy face.

Xiaoyu climbed up my neck with both hands and looked at me and said, "Cheng Dong, I came to seek justice today. You didn't tell the truth last night. Now tell me what happened to that girl?" I took off her hands and turned around and said, "What can you do if you know? Will it feel comfortable?"

"But I saw her! Tell me, right? Otherwise, I will be so blocked!" Xiaoyu grabbed my arm and looked at me anxiously and aggrievedly. I said helplessly: "Okay."

Xiaoyu smiled, hugged my arms in her arms, and sat down next to me. I didn't move, and tilted my head to take a look. I was a little confused. Didn't I agree to be a confidante? Why did she become even worse?

I went from crashing into a car, borrowing words, traveling together, and now "living together", to how embarrassed I was when she "passenger" last night, and talked about the journey of meeting, acquaintance, and love with Yaoyao. I said everything about Xiaoyu's entanglement, how she was so hot and cold that made me fascinated. I sighed and finally sighed: "For more than 30 years, I have been here like a stagnant water. I didn't expect to meet you two and make me so troubled."

During the whole process, Qin Yu didn't say a word, sometimes smiling, sometimes proud, and sometimes sour. After hearing my last sigh, he suddenly laughed.

I said wonderingly, "Why are you laughing at?"

"I laughed at you for being thick-skinned and always liked to show off myself!" Qin Yu glanced at me and said.

"How did I claim to be myself?"

Qin Yu said disdainfully: "I still say I didn't recommend it! You said you have been a good man for more than 30 years. When I met me and that Yaoyao, I turned you into a bad man. It seems that you are right, but we are wrong!"

I... I was speechless. Qin Yu, how did the way he understood the problem was different from others? Qin Yu looked at me and said angrily: "President Cheng, you are in a much better mood. I, a confidante, are you qualified?"

I sighed, "Do you really think so?"

"What should I do if I don't think so?" Xiaoyu pushed my hand away, got up and walked to the window, "Do you think you're not going to make enough trouble? Do you want me to get another kick?" After that, he turned around and looked at me.

I was very moved and ashamed. In order not to bother me, she became the role of a confidante again. This was my purpose of showdown. I didn’t make it myself, she helped me make it.

"Thank you, Xiaoyu." I looked at her blankly. "I owe you all my life."

"Just know." Xiaoyu tightened her face and turned out the window again.

I closed my eyes and lowered my head and sighed.

"But--" Xiaoyu turned around and said with a slightly blushing face, "I remind you that since I am a confidante, you... can't treat me like you did just now."

"Just? What?" I didn't react for a moment. She turned around and I was a little dizzy.

"You..." Qin Yuyu turned back with a red face.

I understood, she said I couldn't kiss her anymore, and I smiled bitterly, "But don't flirt with me anymore, you're cold and cold, and how many men can resist it!"

"When did I flirt with you? It's all your fault! You are so self-indulgent!" Qin Yu was furious again.

I had no choice but to stop talking, touch my pocket, lit a cigarette. Qin Yu looked at me for a while, then sat back next to me: "Cheng Dong, do you really want to get a divorce?"

"What else?" I was dejected.

"When will we leave?"

"I don't know. My sister gets married in April next year, so she has to wait for her to get married. I can't let the whole family feel at ease because of me." I have been avoiding this question, and even deliberately not letting myself think about it, but this is the only way out. Finally, Qin Yu made me face the reality.

"Do you love your wife?" Qin Yu asked me gently.

"I can't figure it out now, it's different from you."

Qin Yu unconsciously stroked her face, and she knew that the "you" meant Yaoyao and her.

"Can your wife agree?"

"My wife..." I suddenly realized that Qin Yu was asking too much, so I stopped and said, "Why are you asking so much, what do you mean?"

"You... still said that you were not self-indulgent! I can't be considered as flirting with you, right?" Qin Yu was anxious and said calmly, "I tell you frankly. I wanted to never get married for the rest of my life. If it weren't for my dad, I wouldn't even have that so-called marriage. So, no matter whether I like you or not, even if you are single, I will not marry you. You can rest assured!"

"Why? Are you sick?" I was surprised.

"You are sick!" Qin Yu retorted, looked at me and said, "Cheng Dong, what I said is true. I don't want to get married, nor can I get married. You don't have to bother me. It would be great to be a confidante with you for the rest of your life like now...."

"Why?" I couldn't help asking again.

"This is my secret. I can't tell you. Don't ask any more. I won't tell you if I ask." Qin Yu simply ignored me.
