Back at the office, I felt a bit down. I didn't expect to run into Li Rong today. I thought I could forget about him. But seeing him today made me realize that I couldn't forget him at all. He didn't even say much to me, yet he still affected my mood.
I leaned back in my chair and rubbed my temples. Just then, my phone rang. I picked it up and saw that it was Xu Qian calling. I answered, "Hello?"
Xu Qian's voice came through, "I'm downstairs at your office."
"..." I frowned slightly, "Didn't you say you'd be back the day after tomorrow?"
Xu Qian's tone was calm, "I finished my work early."
"..." I took a deep breath, "What do you want?"
Xu Qian replied, "To eat."
"..." I pulled at the corner of my lips, "I don't have time."
Xu Qian said, "I'll wait for you."
"..." I had no words to respond. I hung up the phone and continued working.
...
An hour later, I left the office. Before going downstairs, I took a glance at the elevator entrance. Sure enough, Xu Qian was standing there. He leaned against the wall with his eyes downcast, lost in thought.
I hesitated for a moment and turned to walk back. I couldn't go down; if I did, Xu Qian would definitely pull me away. But just as I took a step, Xu Qian's voice suddenly called out, "Liu Yajie."
I stopped in my tracks.
Xu Qian's voice rang out, "I see you."
"..."
I took a deep breath, turned around, and smiled at him, "What a coincidence."
Xu Qian's expression was indifferent, "Not a coincidence, I was waiting for you."
"..."
I chuckled lightly, "What brings you here?"
Xu Qian looked at me, "I told you, I was waiting for you."
"..."
My smile froze.
Xu Qian walked over and looked at me, "Don't you want to have dinner with me?"
"..."
I blinked, "No, I..."
Xu Qian interrupted me, "Do you want to have dinner with Li Rong?"
"..."
I was taken aback.
Xu Qian stared into my eyes, "Liu Yajie, you told me yesterday to come find you."
"..."
I opened my mouth, "I..."
Xu Qian interrupted me again, "Don't you want to have dinner with me?"
"..."
I took a deep breath, "I don't want to eat out."
Xu Qian fixed his gaze on me, "Then let's eat at home."
"..."
I frowned, "I'm very tired."
Xu Qian's voice was calm, "I can help you with a foot massage."
"..."
My scalp tingled.
Xu Qian stared at me, "Is that okay?"
"..."
I felt uncomfortable under his gaze.
I sighed, "Alright."
Xu Qian's expression softened a bit.
...
Xu Qian drove me to a private restaurant.
In the private room, Xu Qian poured me a glass of wine.
I took it and sipped; it tasted good.
Xu Qian looked at me, "You and Li Rong..."
I looked up at him.
Xu Qian continued to stare at me, "When did you two start?"
"..."
I tugged at the corner of my lips, "What does that have to do with you?"
Xu Qian's voice was cold, "When we were in bed, were you thinking of him?"
"..."
My expression changed, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Xu Qian fixed his gaze on me, "Is that so?"
"..."
I took a deep breath, "I broke up with Li Rong a long time ago."
Xu Qian's expression eased slightly.
I looked at him, "What exactly do you want to say?"
Xu Qian's voice was still cold, "You told me yesterday to come find you."
"..."
I stared at him, "I was drunk yesterday."
Xu Qian replied coldly, "You said that even when you were drunk."
"..."
I had no words left.
Xu Qian continued to stare at me, "Liu Yajie, I've done everything I promised you. What about your promise to me?"
"..."
I opened my mouth, "What did I promise you?"
Xu Qian's voice remained cold, "Think for yourself."
"......"
I recalled carefully.
Xu Qian said he had fulfilled all the promises he made to me.
What did he promise me?
As I thought about it, I suddenly realized that the promises Xu Qian made seemed to be trivial matters.
For example, he promised me that he wouldn't eat sweets after ten o'clock at night.
Another example is that he promised me to brush his teeth before having breakfast every morning after getting up.
He remembered these trivial matters clearly and kept his promises.
But he hadn't fulfilled any of the significant promises he made to me.
I suddenly realized that I seemed to have never asked him for anything.
I had always played by his rules without making any requests.
I looked at him: "What do you want?"
Xu Qian stared at me: "What do you think?"
"......"
I fell silent.
Xu Qian stared at me: "Speak."
I looked at him: "What do you want?"
Xu Qian's voice was cold: "What do you think?"
"......"
I fell silent again.
Xu Qian stared at me: "Speak."
I looked at him: "I don't know."
"......"
Xu Qian stared at me for a long time before speaking: "Spend the night with me."
"......"
