I looked at Li You's happy face, and all the words were stuck in my throat. I couldn't speak for a while, and it took me a while to squeeze out three words, "Congratulations!"
"Yiyi, will you accompany me for a prenatal check-up in a few days? I haven't gone to the hospital yet after I found out I was pregnant. I heard others said that I still have to set up files and so on." Li You talked to me about various things in high spirits. Regarding the pregnancy, my mind was filled with images of He Kang and another woman showing off their affection.
If I tell Li You the truth now, there are only two results. The first is that she will be angry and painful, choose to have an abortion, and break up with He Kang, and the second is to choose to forgive He Kang, whether it is because of feelings or because of the child.
In short, it will cause Li You a lot of harm.
"Okay, then tell me one day in advance." I was a little confused, and after casually agreeing, I stood up and left, "You have a good rest, I have to go back beforehand."
Li You pouted unhappily, "No way, you've only been sitting for ten minutes!"
"Yuyou, don't tell He Kang beforehand that you are pregnant. How about we set up a game and have a sense of ceremony?" I thought for a while and then said.
Li You didn't doubt his presence and immediately agreed, "Okay! I'll set the time and let you know when the time comes!"
I made an "ok" gesture and quickly left Li You's house.
When I got back to the car, I sat for a while before I calmed down. Whether it was Deng Jing'er, Ouyang Tian, or Li You, they were all my sisters' friends. In my heart, they were the same as my family. I really couldn't. Accept that someone is hurting them.
Just when I was about to leave, He Kang's Chevrolet appeared not far away. After he got out of the car, he was holding a white bag in his hand and looked a little anxious.
"He Kang!" I shouted.
Seeing me, He Kang was surprised at first, and then came over to greet me, "Wanyi, are you coming to my house to play leisurely?"
He Kang actually has a good temperament. Although his family background is not as good as that of Li You, his appearance matches him well and he is very elegant and upright.
"Well, didn't you go to work? Why are you back again?" I asked.
"Isn't it almost noon? I'm afraid that Yoyo is too lazy to cook her own food, and takeout is not healthy, so I'll come back and cook some food for her. Do you want to eat together?" He Kang picked up the bag in his hand, "There is beef and sixty."
I was dumbfounded, looking at He Kang's smiling face, I didn't feel any hypocrisy, and he was indeed very kind to Li You, but how could such a man have two things?
I couldn't tell what I was feeling, so I forced a smile and shook my head, "Next time, I have something else to do, bye."
"Okay." He Kang waved to me.
I drove away, beginning to wonder if there was any true love in the world, including Jin Han. I once firmly believed that Xiang Qing was his true love, but I died too early in my last life and had no chance to see the ending of the story.
What happens after they get together? One year, two years, three years, ten or twenty years later?
Can Jin Han's love for Xiang Qing last a lifetime?
Is it possible that we may be very in love at first, but gradually lose the feeling, and end up like most couples, becoming strangers and full of contradictions?
With such confused thoughts, I drove around the streets and finally came to the "Afternoon Garden" restaurant.
Xiang Qing stopped working part-time here a long time ago, so there was no point in me coming here, but I still opened the door and ordered a cup of black coffee.
I held the warm cup and stared quietly out the window at the busy streets. In my mind, I replayed what had happened since my rebirth. It seemed that everything was expected, but also seemed to be gradually beyond my control.
At this time, a black Bentley Mercedes stopped outside the restaurant. Jin Han got out of the car and looked at each other in the restaurant.
Then he asked the driver to drive away first, and then walked into the restaurant.
"A cup of black coffee." He ordered a cup of black coffee as he passed the counter, but nothing else.
Black coffee is Jin Han’s favorite. From the time I met him to now, he has not changed his taste. Whether he is studying or working, black coffee has a very refreshing effect.
"Why are you drinking coffee here?" Jin Han sat down opposite me. Today he was wearing an off-white turtleneck thin cashmere sweater and a long black coat. He had a model-like figure and looked very eye-catching.
From the moment he came in, the young shop assistants and ladies had been looking over here, and some even picked up their cellphones to secretly take pictures.
I replied calmly, "I'm passing by. If you want to drink, come down and have a drink."
Jin Han curled his lips, and his black coffee was served. The two of us sat like this, drinking coffee together in silence.
"If I didn't know you, I probably wouldn't like to drink such bitter and dark things." Suddenly, I felt deep emotion in my heart and said.
"Huh?" Jin Han seemed to be waiting for me to continue.
"Before I met you, I liked eating desserts and drinking milk tea. Later I found out that you seemed to like drinking black coffee, so I tried drinking it too. I always thought that if I had the same preferences as you, the distance between us would be narrowed. There will also be topics to talk about," I recalled those innocent and passionate past times and laughed, "Same as wearing clothes, I will learn from you in everything, and try hard to make myself more suitable for you."
Jin Han's eyes were calm, and he didn't seem to be moved by me.
I sighed, "Oh, nine years. It took me nine years to realize one thing, that is, you can't force feelings."
"Do you regret it?" Jin Han chatted with me calmly for the first time. He said, "If you choose someone else, you won't waste these nine years."
"What regrets do I have?" I replied with relief. "In the process of falling in love with you, I also experienced joy, longing, and the feeling of feeling that the world is beautiful for a person. In the end, I learned to let go. Is it worth it?”
Suddenly I had an idea and added another question, "Don't you feel this way when you are chasing that female college student now? The feeling of loving someone."
The originally harmonious atmosphere was broken by my ignorant question. Jin Han's eyes turned cold, "No."
This is not the right answer! I wondered for a few seconds, but then I thought about it again. It must be that the time has not come yet. As a person in authority, Jin Han must not be as clear as me, a bystander.
"Oh, so," I changed the subject, "By the way, your dad said he wants me to work in the company. I think it's okay. You can arrange a position for me."
"Join Jin's family?" Jin Han frowned.
"Yeah, what's wrong? Isn't it possible?" I asked deliberately. It doesn't matter whether it works or not, but I think what Zhou Yanli said is very reasonable, and I have to find something to enrich myself.
"What position do you want?" Jin Han didn't refuse directly, but asked me.
I thought about it and said, "Anyway, just don't be a low-level errand boy. I have to learn something."
