After a night of drunkenness, Qiao Li woke up in the morning to find that the person sitting next to her was Liu Qingyang. She was shocked. Why was it you? Why is it you? Liu Qingyang quietly handed her a glass of water and left the room. Qiao Li also stood up groggily and followed Liu Qingyang out of the room. She was waiting for Liu Qingyang to ask her, but Liu Qingyang didn't say a word. He just looked out the window silently.
"Don't you have anything to ask me?"
"What do you want me to ask you?"
Liu Qingyang's eyes were still looking out of the window, as if he could make her unable to see all his expressions. He did this. Last night, he stood by the window for a long time. He was in a bad mood and wanted to drink some wine, so he came to Stars Bar outside the campus. However, who knew that as soon as he entered the door, he saw Qiao Li and Bai Shiqi drinking. He retracted his foot and stood in the parking lot at the entrance of Stars Bar, staring at the two people drinking inside. Qiao Li drank one glass after another. Bai Shiqi did not try to persuade her. He just watched her drink quietly and listened to her talk. Liu Qingyang did not know why.
His fists were clanging, but he still held it in. He wanted to see what was going on between the two of them. No one knew how long they had been drinking, and no one knew how long Liu Qingyang had been standing outside. It was a winter night, and the temperature was below zero. Liu Qingyang had been standing there the entire time. Everyone who came out of the bar would look at him, wondering what this idiot was doing standing there. Could it be that his wife was drinking with her lover, and this kid didn't have the guts to go in? They would whistle back and leave with a smile as if they were watching a show. Liu Qingyang still stood there, looking at the two people inside.
At this moment, I really didn't know what Liu Qingyang was thinking. Since he didn't like Qiao Li, why did he still want to be with her? Just because she could help him? If this matter was over and he still could not fall in love with Qiao Li, what would happen to Qiao Li?
Once a woman was over 30 years old, who would still love her? She could either find a man who was a little inferior and make do with it. However, how long could such a marriage last? If you were lucky, this man would not have children. If you were unlucky, you would have to be a stepmother as soon as you entered the family.
We can't say that Qiao Li isn't happy. If she can be with Bai Shiqi, maybe she will be very happy. But the problem is that Bai Shiqi already knows about her relationship with Liu Qingyang. Will he still want her? Would Bai Shiqi fall out with Liu Qingyang because of her? No one knew the answer.
Seeing the two of them come out, Liu Qingyang quickly hid behind another car. Bai Shiqi put Qiao Li in the car and went back to look for things alone. Liu Qingyang quickly walked to Bai Shiqi's car, opened the car door, and carried Qiao Li away. This place was not far from the school. It was only two or three steps away. When Bai Shiqi came out and saw that the people in the car were gone, he smiled and left. In fact, he had already guessed it. He couldn't say or do it. He could only watch as things continued to develop.
"Don't you want to ask me why I drank last night and who I drank with?”
"Is there any meaning to this? You have the freedom to drink with whoever you want, and I don't dare to interfere. As for why you drink, you can tell me when you've thought it through. I thought you would tell me. Why should I ask?”
"Liu Qingyang is a bastard. Shit, how could I fall in love with a bastard?”
"Hahaha, then I have to congratulate you for falling in love with a bastard! I tried to persuade you not to fall in love with this bastard, but you didn't listen. Actually, the pretty boy sitting opposite you last night is not bad. Really, if you want to be with him, okay, I can fulfill your wish. Moreover, he's not bad either. He's very attentive to you and takes good care of you. The two of us are free people. No one will stop the other from being happy, right? Moreover, that person was your boss. It was not uncommon for bosses to be together with their subordinates.”"Liu Qingyang, you are so shameless and despicable.”
"Is that so? It's not like you've only been with me for a day. You should know this, right? I'm shameless, despicable, and an out-and-out bastard. Are you satisfied now? Let me tell you, from now on, we don't owe each other anything. You walk your path, and I cross my wooden bridge. Do you understand?”
"Liu Qingyang, I was really blind. Why didn't I see you clearly before? I was just a chess piece in your hands, a tool to deal with the Bai family. Now that you've hooked up with the young miss of the Bai family, you've put me aside. I won't let you go. I won't. I won't."
"No one treated you as a chess piece. You were the one who was willing to be a chess piece. Do you still need me to hook up with the young miss of the Bai family? Have you forgotten? I've told you before that we've known each other since we were young. I've given all my love to her, so in this life, she's my wife and my soul. I admit that sometimes I'm really lonely, which is why I have those things with you. However, we're both adults. We're both willing, but I can only marry her. You can say that I'm cruel or heartless, but I hope that you can live well in the future and find someone who loves you to marry! Don't go on like this. I can't give you any more love. I'm not asking for your forgiveness. It's meaningless. I'm just telling you not to do anything stupid. You'll have a miserable life. Don't blame me for not warning you.”
"Liu Qingyang, are you speaking human language? When you are lonely and empty, you come to me. What am I? What am I to you? A prostitute or something? You're warning me, hahaha. What did I do wrong? If you want to treat me like this, is it wrong to love someone? Was it wrong? Who can tell me?"
Qiao Li stumbled away. Watching Qiao Li's back as she left, Liu Qingyang turned around. There were two lines of tears on his face. He had been facing the window because he was afraid that Qiao Li would see his tears and not have the heart to leave.
He knew that Qiao Li loved him. She loved him with all her feelings and even her life. However, he could not give her any promises. He was right. He had given all his feelings to Bai Mengfei. He could not give it to anyone else. Therefore, he could only let Qiao Li leave with hatred. He did not know how many times he had apologized to her in his heart. Looking at her leaving, Liu Qingyang just stared blankly. When the door of the room closed, He suddenly wanted to cry out loud, but he was afraid that Jolly would be standing outside the door. He held back his tears and let them flow down his cheeks.
Perhaps he could only hear the sound of his tears falling to the floor. In fact, when he saw Bai Shiqi and Qiao Li drinking yesterday, he knew from the gentleness in Bai Shiqi's eyes that Bai Shiqi liked Qiao Li, so he didn't know that he was occupying Qiao Li like this. She should have her own happiness. Therefore, at that moment, he decided to let go of Qiao Li and let her find her own happiness. Even if Bai Shiqi found out that they had been together in the future, so what? They no longer had any contact. Liu Qingyang didn't know if what he did was right or wrong. Maybe he let go, which led to the series of things that happened later. In fact, no one was born a bad person. It was just that some things forced people to be bad people.
Qiao Li, who was standing downstairs, looked back at Liu Qingyang's window again. This time, she did not see that familiar figure. Why? Why? Why are you so heartless? Why do you have to treat me like this? I hate you so much. Since you're so heartless, don't blame me for being heartless. Liu Qingyang, I will make you regret it. I will definitely make you regret it. Revenge on all those who hurt me. Qiao Li looked at the window for the last time, turned around and left with tears in her eyes. No one knew what she wanted to do. Perhaps she was just saying it.
It was almost the new year, and it was the busiest time in the restaurant. To the people of China, a reunion was just a family sitting together, eating and chatting.
Therefore, whenever the New Year came, there would be a mass migration in China. People from all over the world would drag their families to a place called their hometown. In fact, they could spend the New Year there, but there were no parents there. In the Chinese concept, a place with parents was home. Therefore, during the New Year, the railway, airport, and bus station were the busiest places.
When they returned, the restaurant became the most lively place. Nowadays, the diet of Chinese people was also changing. In the past, families would gather around the house to eat and drink. But now? Everyone was annoyed. Besides, his parents had been busy for a year, so it was time for them to take a break. They booked a restaurant to eat. Therefore, the end of the year was the busiest time for Bai Shiqi and the others. They still prepared everything in advance like before. Dynasty Restaurant was very famous in the local area, so they did not have to worry about customers. Just after New Year's Day, people started to make reservations. Up until now, there were no seats left. However, there were still old customers who came to make reservations. Bai Shiqi could only apologize to them one by one, but there was nothing he could do.
Bai Shiqi had once wanted to expand the restaurant's area, or open another branch, but Bai Junfeng had vetoed it. His reason was very simple. He could open a branch, one, or many. The only thing he could not do was consider the level of the chef.
A good chef couldn't be trained by two chefs in a year. The current head chef in their restaurant was an old man who had been working for decades since Bai Junfeng opened the restaurant. The disciples he had brought out were basically all in the restaurant. It wasn't that they didn't want to leave, but they were reluctant to leave. No one in other restaurants paid the Bai family. Other than the salary, there was also an annual holiday. Although it wasn't a few days, it was still a salary. No one in other restaurants paid this. Therefore, these people would rather stay here than go to other restaurants. Perhaps this was the reason why the Bai Family Restaurant was so popular until now! No, Bai Shiqi decided to plan for a new branch after the new year. He could bring the good chefs in the restaurant to the branch. It might be better to bring them together.
After receiving a dozen calls from his acquaintances, Bai Shiqi stood up and made himself a cup of coffee. Jorli was not here today. When he brought her bag back last night, he already knew. Looking at Jorli's bag lying on his desk, he smiled. He did not know what that smile contained.
Was it mockery or sarcasm, happiness or helplessness?
What did he think of? He picked up the phone and made a call. Then, he smiled and put it down. What did he say to that person on the phone? It was obvious that the person's words made him laugh. Then he had to call the important person who reunited with them every year. The largest private room in his restaurant was reserved for his family members on the eve of the new year.
"Grandpa, I've already reserved a seat for us. What do you want to eat this year? It was a ferocious seafood, and it was even a bird or a beast! As long as you tell me, I can get it for you.”
"You brat, your grandfather is already over 90 years old, and you still eat those? What do you mean by that? Do you think your grandfather is still alive? You want me to meet Old Ma as soon as possible!"
"Grandpa, how can you say that? Even if Old Ma sees you now, he will have to take a detour! What are you, old Bolsheviks? You can live another 90 years. We still have to let you see your great-grandson?”
"You brat, your mouth is still so sweet. You only know how to make an old man like me happy. I say, kid, when are you going to coax a granddaughter-in-law for me to come back and make this old man happy!”
It was unknown what Bai Shiqi said, but Old Master Shao was so happy that he laughed loudly. This seemed to have become a tradition of both families. Once the New Year came, the two families would gather together and eat at the Bai family's restaurant. Of course, Old Master Shao would decide on the food, but as for what to do, it was up to Bai Junfeng and Bai Shiqi to decide. It was the same this year, but this year, Bai Shiqi had invited an old acquaintance of theirs, and he promised to be there. Perhaps this acquaintance would remind them of many things and make them live in nightmares for the next year.
