C37 (2/2)
”I don't want to try to start with you. I just want to live my own life.”
”We have lived under the same roof for three years, yet we have never known each other. We have treated you with respect and fear from the very beginning.”
Qi Miao took a deep breath and mustered her courage to speak.
”I live like a zombie, with no sense of self. I'm tired, and I'm tired! Please let me go! ”
The other end of the line went silent for a long time, to the point that Qi Miao thought that the line was broken. She looked at the screen and realised that it was still connected, ”Hello? Yun Peng, are you listening? ”
Yun Peng's low voice finally came out from the other end of the phone, ”Give me some time, I'll think about it!”
”Don't make things difficult for the Qi's, and don't make things difficult for my aunt and uncle, okay? ”I, I just want to try and fight for myself. If you don't agree, I …”
Qi Miao simply could not say anything about how she would continue to live like this. She would never want to live such a life again.
”Hehe, Qi Miao, you're still worrying about those two old bastards even now!”
”Don't you understand why they let you marry them?”
Yun Peng decided to let her face the cruel reality.
”I believe you really don't know where Qi Ji is missing now, but your aunt and uncle must be well aware!”
How is that possible? Qi Miao's beautiful eyes opened wide, the hand holding the phone was trembling, her fingers felt cold.
He did not want to believe what Yun Peng had said, but he was so sure!
There was a long silence, but neither of them hung up.
In the end, it was Yun Peng who spoke again, ”I promise you that I won't do anything during this period of time that I'm considering!”
Then he hung up.
Qi Miao was no longer able to remain calm and grasped his father's large hands, ”Father, is it really as Yun Peng said? Does Eldest Uncle and Eldest Aunt know where Big Sister is? ”
Then he laughed at himself. So what if he knew?
Qi Ji was, after all, their biological daughter, so she didn't want to marry Yun Peng and escape from the marriage.
Why should she bear the brunt of her sister's mistake?
However, Qi Miao thought that, the first uncle did not know that she had always been fond of someone, she just thought that their Yun Family were rich and powerful, their position was high, Yun Peng was handsome and spirited, it was fine to marry her.
They and the two elders did not need to be threatened if they were to not let their Qi's suffer any losses.
Two birds with one stone!
Her uncle and aunt probably thought that she would be able to live a peaceful and beautiful life with Yun Peng and wait for the child to live his life. At that time, Qi Ji would be able to openly return.
Only, they definitely wouldn't have thought that her and Yun Peng's marriage was a talk on paper.
No, not even on paper. They don't even have that paper certificate.
It was impossible for his aunt and uncle not to know that Qi Ji and Yun Peng had already registered, right?
So what do they want to do? Qi Miao couldn't even think of a way to feel her headache.
She was tangled up in her dreams, which were chaotic. There was Yun Peng, Ye Dongmo, and even Qi Ji, but when she woke up, she could not remember what she had dreamed of.
He could only feel a slight headache coming on!
It was another boring day, and the phone was dead silent.
When Fang Qi'er was on vacation, no one came to find her to chat. It was a rare moment of peace and quiet, but Qi Miao could only sigh to herself.
At six in the evening, Qi Miao punctually came out with her Tianhai Building.
A bit of hope rose in his heart. Maybe Ye Dongmo would catch her by surprise and appear at the bus stop like before, blocking the crowd with his arm.
Even though he knew there was no car heading to the sanatorium, he still walked to the platform.
