Chapter 88 Testing
Chapter 88 Testing
So she still remembered.
I thought that in her heart, there was only hatred for my departure, and she had completely forgotten the little things and good memories we had shared.
It really makes one sigh.
Song Yafei put down her phone and saw me looking a little melancholy, and seemed to guess what I was thinking.
After all, she was the person who knew me best.
After putting down her phone, she became much more dejected.
Song Yafei gazed into the distance, "Zhang Fei, do you think..."
Just as Song Yafei was about to say something, Wu Liang knocked on our door from outside.
"Mr. Song, the agreed time has arrived. Please come with me."
I don't know who she's going to meet, but the way she's doing it makes it seem like she's deciphering secret codes on the street.
However, his interference interrupted what Song Yafei was about to say, and it made me a little curious about what she wanted to say.
Song Yafei stood up, straightened her clothes, and clipped her hair up with a hair clip.
In an instant, Song Yafei seemed to have changed her face, becoming shrewd and regaining her usual aura.
"Wait for me to come back tonight."
She left those words behind, and before I could react, she turned and left the room with Wu Liang.
After Song Yafei left, I cleaned up the leftovers.
I had already decided to stop being a self-destructive person and stop dwelling on what she was about to say. Then I went to the place Wu Liang had mentioned earlier that had beautiful scenery.
It was a lake shaped like a crescent moon, hence the name Crescent Lake.
The lake is lined with weeping willows. It's not the right time now, but I can imagine the emerald green buds dotting the lake's surface when they sprout, graceful and light.
Just thinking about it is wonderful!
There were many couples around Crescent Lake, whispering sweet nothings and playfully teasing each other; some even put their legs into the lake.
Envy of everyone!
A gentle breeze blew, the lake surface shimmered, and the fragrance from all around seemed to waft to my side, surrounding me.
How uncomfortable!
In that instant, the inspiration in my mind, like these fragrances, gathered and multiplied.
To capture these inspirations, I immediately returned to the guesthouse and took out my drawing paper.
I seemed to be quite engrossed in my drawing, and when I finished and looked up, it was already dark outside.
I checked the time and realized it was already past 10 p.m., and I had missed dinner.
My stomach started to protest, so I quickly found some medicine and swallowed two pills.
After taking the medicine, I went to wash up and then climbed up.
I didn't sleep; I leaned against the headboard, waiting for Song Yafei.
But her body seemed to be disobedient, and she soon fell asleep.
I will wake up again, also because of the knocking on the door.
When he woke up, he heard Wu Liang calling at the door, "Mr. Zhang, please open the door, President Song has drunk too much."
I quickly got up, opened the door and led the person in, then thanked Wu Liang.
Song Yafei, who had been resisting Wu Liang's touch just moments before, obediently leaned against me after hearing my voice.
I led her in, closed the door, settled her on the sofa, and then went to the bathroom to fetch a basin of water to give her a bath.
At first she was very resistant, but later she hugged my waist and wouldn't let go.
I gently wiped her face, hands and feet.
Perhaps it was because of the water, but she became much more awake.
I put the basin back in the bathroom, and when I came out again, she grabbed my hand and pressed me down on the sofa, sitting down next to me.
She rested her head on my shoulder.
I wonder who she met that required her, the president of the prestigious Song Corporation, to get so drunk.
This is still quite rare.
I sighed with some concern.
After we got married, considering how hard she worked, I volunteered to stay home to take care of her health.
But she showed him no sympathy whatsoever.
Right now, I'm not feeling gloating, I'm still heartbroken.
I hate myself for being so pathetic in loving and understanding her.
But I also want to escape.
Song Yafei suddenly hugged my neck tightly, muttering softly, "Zhang Tian, Zhang Tian..."
She kept calling my name, and not wanting to disturb others, I had no choice but to respond.
"Zhang Tian, what should I do with you?"
Hearing her say those words, I could sense the same helplessness I felt.
I helped her up, looked into her eyes, and forced her to meet my gaze.
Isn't it said that people speak the truth when they're drunk?
So, can I take advantage of her being drunk and ask her things that I shouldn't normally say?
I nervously licked my lips, and after much hesitation, I cautiously asked her.
"Yafei, tell me, do you hate me?"
Song Yafei looked into my eyes, her own eyes reddening. "Fool! You big fool! Everyone says I hate you to the core, but without love, where does hate come from?"
Love?
Does she still love me?
But what about the men around her—Yu Chengliang, Xie Wenyi, and who else…?
Do I still love her the same way I used to?
Maybe there are still some, but I dare not love anymore!
I choked back tears, "Why did you say you loved me when I had already given up on loving you? You're so cruel!"
Song Yafei shook her head and stroked my face, "No! Don't give up!"
"I know I hurt you deeply, but I've always loved you."
"I'm using the Song family to keep you here, but do you really think the Song family needs a marriage in name only to maintain it right now?"
Hearing her say that, it does seem to be true.
The Song family had long been firmly under her control; a divorce wouldn't change anything.
But she...
"You might think I'm only looking for you for that kind of thing, but if that's all I'm looking for, there are plenty of men out there for me to choose from."
"It's not that I can't live without you, is it?"
I don't know if she was genuinely drunk or deliberately saying things to annoy me, but at least I was angry when I heard those words.
“I didn’t stop you, and you did look for them, didn’t you?”
"No! There has never been anyone else, only you."
She said the same thing that night, and she said it again today. Should I believe her?
Just as I was hesitating, she, drunk, grabbed my chin and said, "Besides, I only have feelings for you, do you understand?"
Understand what?
Do you understand that I should feel honored?
But the next second she said somewhat discouragedly, "But you seem to have changed. You no longer only have eyes for me; there are other things in your eyes as well."
"I cannot accept this! I will not allow it!"
Such a strong statement is so typical of Song Yafei!
However, I have to admit that what she said is true, and that's what I've been doing step by step.
I sighed, not caring whether she could understand me or not.
"Why bother? Once you've lost it, you'll want it again, but no one will wait for you forever!"
I considered waiting indefinitely, but stomach cancer limited my time and brought me to my senses.
"No! You can only be mine, mine!"
Song Yafei wrapped her arms around my neck so tightly she almost strangled me.
