Mi Qian frowned, wondering what Qiao Chunqian was thinking.
Why did she still go on a blind date with other people when she was clearly showing kindness to her through words and deeds? She began to question whether the boy she once admired had changed his appearance.
No, she would never allow anyone to tarnish the beautiful imagination of feelings in her heart.
Mi's mother and Aunt Zhao were chatting animatedly around Qiao Chunqian's blind date, and Mi Qian quietly pricked up her ears.
This woman on a blind date is a teacher at University A like Qiao Chunqian. She is also the same age. She is beautiful, capable, and has a good personality.
Listening to them adding complete information bit by bit, the image of the female teacher appeared in front of Mi Qian's eyes.
It was really surprising that she actually knew the teacher.
Xue Yiyan, a star teacher at the Academy of Fine Arts, returned from studying abroad. She is mature and elegant, and is very popular among students.
Mi Qian once went to see it once with her good friends because of the reputation. She really lived up to her reputation, and her age matched Qiao Chunqian's.
But this is no reason for him to play with other people's feelings.
Mi Qian became serious. She didn't insist on anyone, but if Qiao Chunqian had other signs, in her opinion, he couldn't treat her more than the limit.
This is extremely irresponsible behavior.
As a young and beautiful girl who holds high the banner of pure love, Mi Qian decided to "do justice for heaven" (no), and she convinced people with her reason.
Lunch was almost done, Mi Qian accepted the big red envelope from her parents and Aunt Zhao, then hugged Mi’s mother’s arm,
"Mom, dear mother, I made an appointment with my friends to go out for fun in the afternoon. I won't come back in the evening and will stay directly at Brother Qiao's place, okay?"
Mi Mu thought for a while and said generously:
"Go ahead. Baby, you want to have fun on your birthday. If you need anything, just call us, okay?"
"Uh-huh."
Mi Qian nodded and took the car back to the apartment.
Entering the door, there is no one in the house.
It seemed that the blind date was not over yet. Mi Qian sat on the sofa and started drafting what she wanted to say while waiting for the person to come back.
Not long after, the sound of the key being inserted into the door came.
Mi Qian turned around and looked over. Qiao Chunqian was wearing a knee-length khaki windbreaker and slender black trousers, with a dignified and elegant temperament.
The heating was turned on in the house. As soon as he entered the door, he took off his windbreaker and hung it on his arms, revealing the pure black woolen sweater underneath, which made his whole person even more extraordinary.
"Qiao Chunqian, let's talk."
Mi Qian's voice was calm and serious, which inexplicably gave people a sense of pressure.
Qiao Chunqian just changed his shoes and wanted to come in. When he heard the voice and raised his head, he saw Mi Qian sitting on the sofa. His body stiffened and he instinctively wanted to walk out to avoid her as before.
But as soon as he made the move to retreat, he thought of Mi Qian's words of "we need to talk."
Talking head-on was once easy and now is extremely difficult.
Qiao Chunqian suppressed the excitement in his heart, walked to the other side and sat on the sofa, his windbreaker placed next to him, his eyes burning, full of expectation and joy.
But as soon as Mi Qian opened her mouth, he seemed to have fallen into an abyss.
This time, she really wanted to break off contact with him. She was ruthless and serious, and there was no trace of perfunctoryness.
No matter how much Qiao Chunqian asked, he still couldn't understand what she meant by "dedicated feelings", "hating half-heartedness" and "having two feet in the same boat".
It was as if a black pot had been placed on him, but he couldn't lift it.
Qiao Chunqian refused to give in anymore and asked Mi Qian to give him an explanation.
Mi Qian completely exploded. She originally wanted to hint to save some face, but now she didn't care about anything, and she even meant to speak unscrupulously.
"I said, I will never consider someone like you who is not devoted to feelings and has deep thoughts. I hate such people the most."
These words were more hurtful than a thousand arrows piercing the heart. Qiao Chunqian knew that he was not so innocent. He had resorted to a lot of tricks and tricks to please and pursue Mi Qian.
But the conclusion that the relationship is not dedicated is really disappointing.
Looking at Mi Qian's serious look, she knew that there was no room for change today.
Qiao Chunqian took his windbreaker and stood up to leave.
Before leaving, he said in a hoarse voice:
"Qianqian, happy birthday. There is a specially customized birthday cake in the refrigerator. The birthday gift is on the bedside table in my room. The key is here. Please keep it for me first."
A bunch of keys fell on the coffee table, and the crisp metallic sound and loving words seemed to fall into people's hearts.
Mi Qian looked at the person at the door. Qiao Chunqian looked downcast and his eyes were lonely. The hand that opened the door was too "weak" and the twisted handle slipped several times.
"wait."
She still regretted it and softened her attitude to retain him.
Qiao Chunqian seized the opportunity to ask why.
Mi Qian said everything she heard at noon.
"I went to see Teacher Xue today, but not for a blind date."
Qiao Chunqian continued to explain, "The introducer was my university teacher, and he said it in an office where many teachers were present. I couldn't directly refuse and refute the teacher's face, so I went to meet him today."
He raised his right hand again, stretched out four fingers, and made a gesture of swearing,
"I made everything clear to her when I arrived. I didn't hide anything, not even the fact that I have a sweetheart."
Originally, Mi Qian was still amused by Qiao Chunqian's juvenile behavior of "swearing", but when she heard what happened later, her face was covered with layers of bright red from her neck up.
The misunderstanding was finally solved, and the atmosphere between the two returned to the harmony it had been not long ago, and even became a little more ambiguous.
From Mi Qian's words and performance, Qiao Chunqian knew that she still had him in her heart, and she couldn't restrain her joy.
However, a doubt quietly arises,
"Qianqian, why didn't you agree to my promise before?
For this reason, he doubted himself countless times, questioned his various shortcomings defined by the world, and felt an inferiority complex in his heart.
Mi Qian's face turned hot after she calmed down as she recalled the night that broke their relationship.
She told her why.
Qiao Chunqian was speechless for a moment, feeling extremely hurt inside.
He raised his head and looked vulnerable, imitating the little pug his mother bought who also pretended to be pitiful.
"Qianqian, am I so...so...unbearable?"
He organized the words several times before finally speaking.
Mi Qian quickly waved her hand, "No, no, you're fine."
Qiao Chunqian seemed to be unable to hear the outside world and said to himself:
"I was not good at that time, and Qianqian suffered a lot. Qianqian, are you willing to let me make it up to you?"
Those clear eyes and the eagerness to do something big made her feel like she was back when she was twelve years old.
Before my mind could react, the words came out: "Okay."
Immediately, he was carried back to the bedroom.
The time becomes particularly long and gentle, from noon to evening.
When she came out again, Mi Qian's legs were so weak that she had tears of joy in her eyes.
After receiving the approval of his sweetheart and resolving the final gap between the two, Qiao Chunqian looked satisfied.
He hugged her and placed her on the sofa gently, not letting her fall to the ground the whole time.
Then go to the kitchen, take out the exquisite birthday cake and put candles on it.
"Qianqian, make a wish."
Mi Qian closed her eyes and placed a gentle, weightless kiss on her forehead.
"I love you with no deadline."
