Promise You Lifelong Happiness - C85
At the beginning of December, the streets began to take on the atmosphere of Christmas.
At this moment, Lin Qingrou, who had been pregnant for more than three months, was accompanying Ye Sisi as she tried on her wedding dress.
However, Ye Sisi’s mind wasn’t here. After trying a few times, she still impatiently said, “Whatever. Pick the most expensive one from the one I just tried.”
With that, Ye Sisi went to swipe a card.
Lin Qingrou said to her, “Are you sure you don’t want to try again? That’s your wedding. ”
Ye Sisi was in a terrible mood.
“No, no one’s watching it anyway.”
Lin Qingrou smiled, but after that smile, she felt even more sorry for Ye Sisi. In the end, she was still unable to escape this’ tribulation ‘. After Ji Heng made his compromise with his family, Ye Qingcheng also had an excuse to force Ye Sisi. Finally, after three days of hunger strike and three days of protest, she had no other choice but to agree to the marriage between her and Ji Heng for the sake of Li Yuan’s future and his studies.
It was more painful than dying of heart, and Ye Sisi’s state of mind was now more or less the same. At this point, she didn’t care about the wedding dress, nor about the wedding, much less about the groom. In any case, if it wasn’t him, then no matter who it was, it would be the same.
“Aunt, were you happy when you were married?”
“Happiness?” Lin Qingrou found it laughable.
“Probably.”
She spoke indifferently as if she had already seen through the world.
Ye Sisi looked at her belly and suddenly laughed. “There’s still six months before it’s born. That’s great.”
“You like children?” she asked.
Ye Sisi nodded, a gentle look in her eyes.
“I like it because only children are the simplest and simplest.”
Lin Qingrou also felt that her words made sense, “That’s right, children are the cleanest and purest.”
Before long, snow began to fall outside the window.
In the cold wind, the snowflakes were drifting chaotically, like a weak and unyielding soul. They swirl, roll, and dance on the street, in the air, on the road. Even if he had to use all of his strength, he had to struggle until the end. The end result, though, was nothing more than fog. However, the entire process had been filled with grief. Therefore, even if he died, it would still be worth it.
They unknowingly looked out the window at the sky and actually couldn’t help but sigh.
His heart was like a cold winter, and there was nothing left to worry about.
This was probably their most sorrowful state of mind right now.
Lin Qingrou blinked, trying to pull the tears that had just leaked out of her eyes.
“You’re really willing to marry Ji Heng just like that?”
Ye Sisi’s eyes became increasingly unfocused, as if a layer of mist had covered her eyes.
“To be willing or not to be willing, there is no meaning for me now. I just want to talk to him when we get back to England next month and try to keep him from getting hurt any more. ”
Lin Qingrou looked at Ye Sisi. Her face, which had been young and clean a few days ago, had now turned haggard and pale. Only now did Lin Qingrou understand that a large part of her compromise was due to Ye Qingcheng’s coercion. And the truth behind all of this was probably the fear and disappointment of a daughter towards her father.
Ye Sisi was powerless to resist. If this matter originated from someone else and was controlled by someone, she might still be able to struggle and escape. However, the culprit was Ye Qingcheng. The person closest to her was also the person who understood her the best. Therefore, she had no way to reverse the situation and could only helplessly accept it.
At that moment, Lin Qingrou’s phone rang. She picked it up and took a look. It was actually Ye Qingming.
Because she hadn’t taken the initiative to call him in many days, he was always the one who called back in the middle of his busy day. Sometimes it was after lunch, sometimes it was after the end of the evening. In short, they had to contact him almost every day.
Today was no exception, but it was a little earlier.
Lin Qingrou could not help but ask, “Why are you so early today?”
It was rare for Ye Qingming to not have a job, so he said leisurely: “Today is the last day, we have to go back tomorrow, so it’s rare to have a day of rest.”
She did not show much excitement, or uneasiness.
“Okay, if it’s tomorrow, do you need me to meet you at the airport?”
Ye Qingming naturally wouldn’t ask her to hurry to the airport, “No need, the hospital will arrange for a car for tomorrow. I will directly return to the courtyard from the airport. I’m afraid I’ll still have to work until home.”
She blurted out, “Why did you go back to the hospital again? Don’t you want to rest for a day?”
But when she finished speaking, she was a little regretful. Because such caring and worried words shouldn’t be spoken from her heart at the moment. She thought that she would treat Ye Qingming coldly, but she didn’t expect that every time she heard his nonchalant voice, her heart would unconsciously soften.
Then he asked, “Are you not at home? The sound is a bit disorderly. ”
“Oh, at the wedding shop. Accompany Sisi in her wedding dress test.”
After saying that, she lowered her voice and asked, “Do you already know about her?”
Ye Qingming sighed and said with regret, “I know, so I was a bit surprised. I was the same as you. Initially, I thought that Big Brother would agree to their marriage, but I never expected that I would still be wrong. ”
Lin Qingrou looked at Ye Sisi, who was standing in front of her wedding dress. There was an indescribable feeling in her heart.
“I hope Ji Heng will treat her better after we get married.” The only thing she could say was this, as if to some extent, this would ease her pain and guilt.
Ye Qingming wanted to advise her instead, “Her heart doesn’t feel good, but you can’t ignore your own body for her sake either.”
Lin Qingrou was unwilling to listen to him talk about her child, because to her, it was simply a burden and a tumor tied to her body. Therefore, she had no choice but to change the topic and chat for a while. Only when Ye Sisi called her did she finally hang up.
“Did I disturb your pot of porridge on the phone?” Ye Sisi was joking with her.
Lin Manshui smiled, but did not explain.
“Did you get the wedding dress? Do you want to change the size? ”
Ye Sisi couldn’t find any interest in this at all, so she casually replied, “I’m pretty much dressed now. It should be fine.”
Lin Qingrou turned to her and said, “Seeing as you’re not looking well, why don’t you go home and rest?” Remember to take the wedding dress well. If you have any problems, remember to come back in time to change it. ”
Ye Sisi’s face was sallow and her lips were pale. She seemed to have felt her body becoming extremely weak, so she didn’t force herself to go. She obediently sat in the car and left.
Lin Qingrou watched Ye Sisi’s frail back. Suddenly, she felt as though she was a snowflake that had fallen into the world, drifting in the wind, pale and lonely.
Gradually, she felt a kind of indescribable gloom and sorrow rise up in her heart. It might have been a feeling after an experience, or it might have been a desolate premonition without any reason. All in all, she didn’t like the feeling, because it made people feel cold, even desperate.
The plane Ye Qing owned hadn’t passed security yet, so it sneezed for no reason.
Manager Han asked him, “Are you alright? The weather hasn’t been too good recently, so don’t get sick. ”
Manager Han tightened the collar of his coat and handed his scarf to Ye Qingming.
Ye Qingming looked at her and said, “Thank you.” Then, he followed the crowd and left the airport.
Han Qian shrugged her shoulders and nonchalantly put the scarf back around her neck.
She didn’t like these doctors. They looked like they were very decent, but their thoughts were more profound than anyone else’s. Take Ye Qingming for example. If the company wasn’t involved in the replacement of medical equipment, why would she chase him from B City to a place thousands of miles away? Accompanying him the whole way made Han Qian miserable beyond words.
However, when she returned, there was a bit of unwillingness. She did not understand why she was like this. Could it be that after spending these past few days with him, she had a different feeling towards him, or was it the desire to conquer that had been aroused because she did not pass the plan? In short, Han Qian didn’t want to part with Ye Qingming so early.
Ye Qingming looked back and saw that she was still behind him. He said, “Manager Han, I think it’s more practical for you to tell the department about the apparatus. After all, I don’t care about that, I have no say in it.”
Han Qian smiled sweetly.
“Alright, I will personally pay a visit to Dean Li another day. But when the time comes, I still hope that Director Ye can go with us.
Ye Qingming didn’t care about the other meaning behind her words. He merely smiled politely, then said to her, “Since that’s the case, I’ll leave first. See you another day.”
Han Qian nodded and watched him leave with a smile. She grumbled in her heart, ‘He obviously got off the plane and returned to B City together with me.’
Ye Qingming got into a taxi. He couldn’t wait to leave the airport and return home. It wasn’t just because he wanted to go home, but also because Han Qian’s expression made him feel very uncomfortable.
Lin Qingrou was preparing lunch at home. She knew that Ye Qingming would be home today, so she got up early to buy vegetables and clean up. It was noon when they finally finished packing. It looked warm and tidy.
She did not expect herself to be so calm after knowing about that incident, even calmer than she had ever been before. She had been disappointed and doubtful, but more of a pessimist.
Once, she had thought that he treated her well from the bottom of his heart. It was that so-called ‘love’. Thus, when she faced him, she was more likely to avoid him and feel guilty. This was because her purpose by his side was not simple. She could not bear such a rare and heavy emotion.
But now, after she found out the truth, after she found out his heart, and after she found out his goal, she became even more relaxed. It was a relief, enough to free her from guilt and self-reproach.
At this moment, she no longer felt any guilt or sympathy towards Ye Qingming. She just wanted revenge, because that was all she had to live for.
Ye Qingming took a deep breath. He was actually a bit nervous standing in front of the door.
In fact, it had only been a little more than a week. The date had already passed from November to December. A few days of gloomy sky, also slowly snow.
Unknowingly, he felt a vicissitudes of life.
Lin Qingrou opened the door and saw Ye Qingming standing there, covered in dust. She clutched her chest and sighed. She had almost shouted out loud.
He was finally able to extricate himself from his days of fatigue. After relaxing, he could not help but sigh with emotion about this kind of atmosphere that he had not felt in a long time. He felt that this was the happiest moment of his life.
Lin Qingrou took the coat and frowned.
“What’s wrong?” he asked.
“There’s perfume.”
“Fragrance?” Ye Qingming took the clothes and sniffed them in surprise.
“It’s probably Manager Han’s perfume smell.”
Lin Qingrou returned the clothes back to him in a huff.
“Hang it up yourself. Next time, if there are any creases, I won’t help you iron your clothes.”
Ye Qingming knew that she was joking, so he hung up his clothes and followed her into the kitchen.
“On this trip, I have a company manager accompanying me. “Sitting together on the way back will inevitably smell a little perfume.”
Lin Manshou picked up the spoon and glanced at him, and after tasting the soup, she said to him, “Today’s soup seems a little salty, why don’t you try it?”
Ye Qingming looked at her, as he scooped up half a bowl of soup, he said to her, “I see that you’ve lost weight again, haven’t you had a proper meal recently?”
Lin Qingrou sat at the side and could not help but rub her forehead, “Not bad, it’s just that I vomited quite a bit a while ago, so I almost didn’t eat much. However, I’ve been feeling a bit better lately. ”
She was getting skinnier and skinnier, so her belly was clearly visible. This made Ye Qingming both worried and scared. He was worried about her body, and even more worried that she wouldn’t be able to hold on.
Seeing that the soup was ready, he turned off the fire and sat beside her, saying, “If I had known that you were feeling ill all this time, I would have come back earlier. Why didn’t you tell me when I called?”
Lin Qingrou laid on the table, revealing her face to him. She couldn’t figure out what hidden intentions he had behind his sincere and worried face.
After Ye Qingming set up the table, Lin Qingrou suddenly felt nauseous again. She covered her mouth and nose and said softly, “I won’t eat, I’ll go back and lie down for a while.”
After saying that, she stood up and tried her best to stay awake, unwilling to go to the bathroom.
Ye Qingming followed behind her and asked worriedly, “Did you not smell the food just now? Why is it so serious?”
He anxiously stood beside the bed and paced back and forth.
“Stop walking around, I’m dizzy.” she complained.
He finally reacted and sat down, quietly watching her as she closed her eyes to rest.
After a while, she finally felt better. Only when the discomfort in her stomach gradually subsided did she have the strength to speak. Lin Qingrou looked at Ye Qingming silently. Seeing his serious expression, she could not help but ask, “What are you thinking about, looking at me now?”
Ye Qingming forced a smile and comforted her, “It’s nothing. I just feel that you’re very tired, but I don’t know what to do to make you feel better.”
Lin Qingrou sat up, thinking to herself: The longer this goes on, the worse it will be for me. The child grows up day by day, do I really have to give birth to it?
“What did Chief Chen say during the labor inspection recently?” Ye Qingming asked.
After Lin got pregnant, Ye Qingming went to the obstetrics and gynecology director Chen to do her labor examination. It was precisely because of Chief Chen that Lin Canrou had to postpone getting rid of this child.
“It’s alright. She said that everything is fine. As long as I can nurture my baby peacefully, everything will be fine.”
Ye Qingming was relieved, but even though the child was fine, and Lin Qingrou was too tired.
He asked again, “But she didn’t say anything, did she, when you were vomiting so much? Otherwise, I’ll call her now and try to figure out a way. ”
After saying that, he stood up and was about to pick up his phone to make a call.
Lin Qingrou quickly persuaded him, “Forget it, everyone is like this. It’s not like I haven’t told her before, there’s no helping it, we can only endure. Besides, there are a lot of people who are worse off than I am. I’ve been feeling better lately, so don’t bother her. ”
She was afraid that he would call again, so she simply took the phone from his hand. Unexpectedly, she accidentally touched the text message interface.
Lin Qingrou looked at the bright words on her phone’s screen, and her eyes couldn’t help but twinkle.
“Alright, then I won’t make any calls.” After saying that, Ye Qingming took the phone from her hand and put it back into his pocket.
She watched his back and bit her lips until they turned from rosy to pale.
Ye Qingming regained his senses and wanted to cover her with a blanket. Lin Qingrou shook her head, then said to him, “You should go eat now, I want to sleep for a while.”
Ye Qingming understood and turned off the lights for her. He then silently closed the door and returned to the restaurant.
Lin Qingrou covered herself tightly with the blanket, almost burying herself in it. When she saw the message on Ye Qingming’s phone, she felt that something was wrong.
At that moment, she saw that Fang Tong had already finished his business, and he had already left.
Lin Qingrou felt dizzy. She always knew that Ye Qingming didn’t want to send messages nor reply. That was why there was so little information in his phone. It was for this reason that she was able to see the message from a few months ago.
