Chapter 83

The long night with lightning and thunder gradually came to an end, and the morning after the rain, the sun blazed down the earth, bringing a different kind of fresh warmth.

Wang Weixi made breakfast early. Last night, he did not have time to tell Chen Kexin that he would be going on a business trip for a week. Chen Kexin was hungry early this morning, so he prepared breakfast carefully in order to say this news when Chen Kexin had breakfast.

Chen Kexin’s mood looked very good. She was wearing pyjamas and casually tied a ponytail. She brushed her teeth and washed her face and went to the kitchen. Without any makeup, she had a youthful feeling, more pure and lovely.

They were having breakfast happily, which felt like they stayed home every day when they just married.

“Dear, my boss assigned me to observe this cooperative project in Hainan Island with a representative of Jinxiu Company, so I am going on a business trip for a week. Please take good care of yourself during this time,” Wang Weixi gently said while putting food in Chen Kexin’s bowl.

Hearing this, Chen Kexin frowned. “A week? It is too long…” She suddenly lost her appetite.

Wang Weixi shrugged and explained, “There are many business trips later. I work so hard and just want to offer a better life for you. Darling, I am sorry. Being here with you every moment is really a wish.”

Chen Kexin shook her head and said, “It doesn’t matter. You work so hard for our family, but I stay at home every day, how can I blame you? You take care of yourself outside.”

Wang Weixi nodded. It was said that next week, in fact, it was tomorrow. Time was in a hurry, so the company allowed Wang Weixi to go to work later. However, this so-called permission, Wang Weixi was very clear, because the superiors must have heard that last night he and Tong Siqi drank and came back late.

He cleared up something for the business trip, and then he brought Chen Kexin to the supermarket, buying lots of snacks. Finally, he went to work.

Before leaving, he took Chen Kexin in front of the refrigerator and patiently told her that there were all kinds of food. If she wanted, she could do it by herself. If she was unwilling to do it, she could eat out with her sister. He also carefully took notes for Chen Kexin and let her kept them well.

Chen Kexin listened, and her face was filled with the unhappiness of being looked down. She also joked that Wang Weixi was like an old nanny of the ancient palace. Wang Weixi joked that she was the innocent girl of that year, making her feel happy.

Seeing Wang Weixi off, Chen Kexin sat on the couch, and the sense of loneliness swept her again.

Today was Sunday. Even Chen Keren worked overtime. Chen Kexin sighed, “How can I let Chen Keren and Yi Duanfang miss their work for me? All of the cartoons and R-rated films almost had been watched. Uh…So boring.”

So she turned around in the room, she came to the bedroom, laying down on the bed, and started to sleep.

Wang Weixi arrived at the company, but as soon as he entered the company, he saw countless strange eyes staring at him. Wang Weixi just politely smiled at everyone and then got into his office. At the door of his office, Lan Ling said enviously, “Mr. Wang, you are coming. Miss Tong Siqi has been waiting for you in the office.”

Wang Weixi smiled and just wanted to say thank you, but Lan Ling turned and left.

…

Wang Weixi smiled wryly. He had a little bit of hesitation before opening the door. The things which happened last night came to mind, and he shook his head helplessly. “It cannot be avoided.” When he thought of it, he opened the door.

Tong Siqi sat on the couch in a formal dress, completely different from last night. It was a bit more indifferent and rigid.

Wang Weixi walked over and looked at the tea in front of her. He whispered, “Siqi, is the tea cool? I will give you a cup of tea again.” He picked up the cup of tea and quietly went aside, and then he slowly made a cup of fresh tea and handed it to Tong Siqi. “You can drink now.”

Tong Siqi seemed to be thinking about something. When she heard Wang Weixi’s words, she looked at Wang Weixi as if she remembered something. At this moment, his face was full of warm smiles, and there was no difference. Tong Siqi suddenly felt that he was so annoying. She did those things yesterday. Why did he still put on a smile to show that he didn’t care?

“You are coming, I have something to say to you, sit down,” Tong Siqi said faintly without any expression.

Wang Weixi sat down and looked at Tong Siqi with some worries, “You didn’t sleep well last night? How does your face look so bad?”

Tong Siqi’s face was sallow and there were dark circles under her eyes. It looked very gaunt.

Hearing Wang Weixi’s question, Tong Siqi suddenly asked, “Don’t you know why?”

Wang Weix frowned and shook his head, saying, “Everyone has an insomnia night. I don’t really understand the mind of the girl. But if you ask Duanfang, he must know.” After that, he still made a feigned smile.

It seemed that this joke did not work at all. Tong Siqi didn’t smile at all from the beginning. She just looked at Wang Weixi with unpredictable eyes until he felt that he was locked by her eyes.

Wang Weixi smiled for a long time, and finally felt boring. He lowered his head helplessly. It was impossible that he didn’t know, but how could they say it now?

“I knew it, I just don’t know why you did this.” Since they already put their cards on the table, there was no reason to avoid. Wang Weixi knew that Tong Siqi wanted to talk to him, instead of as if nothing had happened.

His smile faded. Wang Weixi’s face was a little more cautious. He looked at Tong Siqi but did not know what she was thinking.

After a while, Tong Siqi just snorted and asked, “Wang Weixi, do you want to know the reason?”

Wang Weixi did not speak anything. For him who had already got married, all the reasons should not be used as an excuse to make mistakes. The last thing he would do was to hurt Kexin, from inside of him.

Tong Siqi looked at Wang Weixi’s calm look, and her heart was cold, but on the surface, she was still so proud and indifferent. “Why did a woman kiss a man and take off his clothes after being drunk? The reasons were that she was alone for a long time, she wanted to seduce a man, or she really wanted to get him. Wang Weixi, do you think which one I would be?”

Wang Weixi did not know how to reply, and he did not know whether Tong Siqi loved him or hated himself. A woman’s hate would make her lose all her mind, so Wang Weixi firmly believed that Tong Siqi was likely to hate him. Hence she did it in that way. However, his heart did not accept this kind of thinking, so he had been contradicting recently for what he should do.

“I have no idea,” he replied honestly.

There was a slight disappointment in Tong Siqi’s eyes. “Because I want you.”

Wang Weixi thought that his ears had something wrong. Such an elegant Tong Siqi said such ridiculous words when she was sober.

“Because I want you.”

This simple reason was too direct to accept.

Wang Weixi frowned and asked, “So, what is for?”

“Why? Wang Weixi, are you stupid? Of course, I still like you.”

Wang Weixi’s face fell. After a few seconds, he shook his head and said, “Don’t say it anymore. Siqi, you should know what you said was useless. I am married now, and also you are fighting for your career. Someday you will meet someone who loves you.”

He was serious, even if he knew that Tong Siqi’s words at this time were likely to be a lie, but he still chose to believe, because Tong Siqi’s eyes told him that she did not lie at all.

At this moment, the heart was up and down, but Wang Weixi still kept a calm look, analyzing this problem stereotypically.

Tong Siqi’s frowned, and then she suddenly smiled and quipped, “You mean, I am seducing a married man?”

Wang Weixi really wanted to respond, “Isn’t it?” But after thinking, he still said flatly, “No, I just want to remind you that some jokes cannot be played.”

“If I said that I am not kidding?” It seemed that Tong Siqi did not give up, and this kind of argument could make Wang Weixi understand that she was not deceiving but telling a truth.

Many years ago, she indeed broke up with him, but she was hurt too, after all these, she endured the pain in her heart and said break-up. At that time, seeing him leave, her heart was painful as if it had been cut by a knife. However, at that time she did not know that after many years, she was so unwilling to, to let him go, and unwilling to imagine a happy scene of him and another woman.

At that time, her love and hate to him were intertwined, but in the end, she could only express her feelings with hate.

Wang Weixi got up and said coldly, “You did not sober up, there is nothing to do today, and you would better go back to rest.” There was still a trace of confusion and impulse in his heart before he went home last night, but what happened in the bedroom made him realize that he was not qualified to flirt with anyone. Even if someone wanted to do it, he would never be the protagonist.

As long as he had Chen Kexin, his heart was satisfied.

“It’s really ruthless,” Tong Siqi said with a wry smile, “You don’t want to know why I broke up with you so decisively, and you never want to know why I am the representative of Jinxiu so coincidentally.”

Wang Weixi shook his head and said faintly, “Because I think that it is unnecessary to ask.”

“Oh? No need to ask? Then, how did you comfort yourself? Saying I am drunk or what?” Tong Siqi got up and stood there, looking at Wang Weixi coldly.

“The past?”

“Before I saw you, I really wanted to find out what the reason was that you hurt me. But when I saw you, my mind was yet not affected by this kind of curiosity. The past was the past, which could not be recovered and could not be made up for, and it was a meaningless past.”

People’s hearts had always been so contradictory.
