Chapter 19.2: A little nerve disorder
Zheng Xie said with a straight face: “You should have already had enough. Why don’t we go?”
“Wait, I want to finish this soup.”
Zheng Xie support his chin with his hand and watched Yang Wei Qi finished her soup. She neither spoke nor smile. But in fact she is uncomfortable. She felt that it is too quiet.
“My parents actually grew up together. Both have a very good relations.h.i.+p. When the adults are not home, my mum will cook for my dad. And my dad will help my mum with her homework. They grew up going through many different failed relations.h.i.+p. Then people say, it would be better for both of you to get married. So they got married.”
Zheng Xie reminisced the memories of the past, not aware if he is telling to himself or for the ears of Yang Wei Qi.
He rarely mentioned his side of the family or his own personal stuff. Yang Wei Qi is slightly surprised and looked at him before saying: “My uncle and aunty are an example. Since my childhood, they like to mention the same. My uncle and aunty often said that their marriage is a good example.”
Zheng Xie said: “On this issue, I must say that they have a very good basis for everything. Family and friends.h.i.+p. Just lacking in love only.”
Yang Wei Qi quietly said: “In a marriage, love is always secondary. Trust, respect and tolerance should always be the top importance.”
Zheng Xie said: “You really talk like my mother. If she is still alive, she would have liked you. My mother often said that, in the over twenty years of marriage, more than half of the time, they are not by each other side. She often planned, when your father and I after this age, we will do this…. And instead, she did not even live pa.s.sed the age of fifty.”
Yang Wei Qi was silenced for a moment and said softly: “I am sorry.”
Zheng Xie said: “Why say sorry. I just want to share with you, it is for this reason that the kind of a.s.sumptions that you had, I have never thought about it.”
“I understand. Thank you.”
The conversation between Cen s.h.i.+ and He He in fact is far-fetched from the beautiful conversation that thought.
He He said: “Cen She, you are fully aware. I hate playing games in circles. This is because I have a simple and straight mind. I do not want to play with you. So I would like to make it clear once and for all. If you want us to try to renew out acquaintance, I am sorry. I do not turn back to the past. If you want to close the gap between us using the ident.i.ty of a stranger with me, then let me tell you. In my standard, people like you can only be friends. Do not fit to be my Valentine. I am grateful that you think highly of me. But seeing how you are wasting your time, I am very uncomfortable and sorry. I am done. Now you may speak.”
