Chapter 7: He deserves better
The photo was a photo of Qi Sheng and the girl.0
Qi Sheng was wearing a white T-shirt and casual pants. The girl standing next to him was wearing a pink floral dress with long hair on her shoulders. She was clean and beautiful.
There was no way Nan Ren would dislike such a girl.
In comparison, I was just an old woman who was guarding the broken song hall and a widow...
While I was staring blankly at the photo, the servant brought a black leather bag with its zipper open. Inside was a stack of brand new red bills.
As soon as I shifted my gaze to the banknotes, I heard He Lian say," I know what happened to you. As a woman, I sympathize with you very much. So, this is a million. Take it and leave this place in the future."
One million...
I've returned three hundred thousand for ten years. One million was n' t a small amount to me.
I wasn't someone who did n' t love money, but when I thought that it was used to leave the Qi Sheng, my heart was filled with resistance.
He Lian was a smart woman. Of course, she would see my hesitation and compare my and Qi Sheng conditions to the table.
I sat there and listened to He Lian talking nonstop.
She looked like a rational and intelligent woman. She didn't just threaten me with money and force me.
Instead, he gave me a serious analysis, from parents' concern for their children, from uncertainty in the future, to marriage.
She beginning to end, she didn't say anything that I could n' t match Qi Sheng, but every word she said was that I couldn't match him.
He was worth it.
I acknowledged her words and pushed the money in front of me. I said to her," I don't want the money. Take Qi Sheng away. I' ll leave the music hall myself after I've taken it."
When I made this decision, it was as if my heart was tightly gripped by an invisible hand.
It was so painful that even breathing was difficult.
But from He Lian words, I knew Qi Sheng had his own company. He had his own career, his own future, and a beautiful young fiancée.And I...What could he give him?
Since I can't help him, I ca n' t be selfish.
He Lian said a few words of thanks, but I didn't say anything. I declined her offer to send me back and returned to the song hall by bus alone.I didn't open the door today. I sat alone in the empty singing hall.
Since I had been in the singing hall for ten years, I didn't dare to rest all day because I had to pay back the money.
Seeing that the door was about to close, I wanted to be capricious.
After sitting on the sofa and singing for a few hours, his voice was hoarse. Qi Sheng hadn't come back yet, I thought he was brought back by He Lian.
He typed a [transfer from this store] on the computer and went back to the room to pack.
Not long after, the sound of the key opening came from the door.
I panicked. Before I could hide the box, Qi Sheng had already entered.
He was wearing a shirt and trousers, and his suit was on his hand. He was full of alcohol.
This was the first time I saw him wearing a suit.
He looked at the suitcase and half-bed clothes in my hand and his expression changed instantly." Where are you going?"
"Prepare to change clothes for the next season."I didn't believe this lie.
It was July of midsummer. It was too early to say that the season had changed.
Qi Sheng kicked the leather case at the side and blocked the door. He asked me with an ugly expression," My asked," My came looking for you today, right?"
My heart skipped a beat. I didn't know how to answer him.
As he said that, he got up and walked out. From his posture, I knew he was looking for He Lian theory.
Since my parents were young, I didn't want to Qi Sheng because I had a conflict with my family.
He hurriedly chased outside.
