After dinner Jiang Li called me, afraid that I might have cold he started forcing me to drink a cup of some concotation.
I gave the amber liquid in the cup a skeptical look and asked him: “What is this for?”
Jiang Li very bluntly spoke: “You have cold, right. I don’t want you to pass it to me so take this medicine.”
OK, so I did not know what to say now…..
At night before going to sleep, I mustered some courage and then I gathered some more courage and finally went to Jiang Li: “Jiang Li if I ask you a question then can you answer it honestly.”
Jiang Li generously nodded his head: “Since you are going to inconvenience me with your query thus in order to not let you feel burdened about the same, I will also ask you a question and you should also answer it honestly.”
I nodded and asked: “Did you deliberately make the dinner inedible?”
Jiang Li very seriously replied: “Yes, truthfully I can cook really delicious food. If you don’t believe it then tomorrow I will cook again and you can test it yourself.”
I was petrified and hurriedly shook my head like a pellet drum. It was really hard to tell whether Jiang Li’s words were fake or not.
Pretending to regret, Jiang Li spoke: “What a pity….” Then, he changed the subject: “Well, now it’s my turn to ask you a question.”
“Go ahead.” I did not have anything to hide, he could ask anything.
Jiang Li squinted his eyes slightly and asked: “Why did you cry today?”
I did not expect that he would ask that, remembering the gloomy incident of the day I exclaimed: “Why does it matter to you?”
“I don’t want to see that kind of resentful expressions on your face every day and if this continues I don’t know for how long I will have to cook dinner…..it’s hard to beat the eggs.”
I pondered for a moment and then said: “Jiang Li, if one day you find out that your ex-lover has also started working in your company, will you resign or not?”
Jiang Li firmly shook his head: “I will resign...”
I tilted my head in disbelief: “You will resign so easily.”
Jiang Li added: “I will resign myself to make him quit.”
Me……..
I will resign myself to make him quit. ….This was Jiang Li’s reply.
I suddenly felt that there was no point in discussing this problem with Jiang Li, the two of us basically did not belong to the same world.
Jiang Li quickly realized the problem: “encountered your ex-lover?”
I nodded: “He is the new VP of the Marketing Department in our company and I am the secretary of a VP.” Therefore no matter how hard I tried, we were bound to meet frequently. I had only two options either to face the situation or resign from the job.
Holding his chin Jiang Li thought for a while and then suddenly spoke up: “Xiao Guan Yan, I have discovered that your greatest characteristic is not that you’re stupid but that you’re actually good for nothing.”
His words were indeed ‘good for nothing’ but I was already accustomed to his cynicism. It seemed that although he said such provocative things but he really was not in the mood for bickering.
He smiled but perhaps found my reaction a bit too dull. So dissatisfied, he said: “You still don’t believe me. It’s obvious that from the beginning it’s your ex who was in the wrong and yet you are trying to make yourself invisible like you owe him something.”
His words hit my heart directly. Did it really look like that……
Seeing how I was not retorting back, Jiang Li proposed another hypothesis: “Or could it be that you are still obsessed with him?”
Uh? I was stunned. Was I? No way…I wasn’t….certainly not….I shouldn’t be.
I shook my head decisively and in a quite serious tone said: “I can assure that I don’t like him anymore.”
Jiang Li asked: “But when you saw him, you reacted just like the girlfriend who recently broke up with her boyfriend. Then are you afraid of him?”
Was I afraid of him? I was wary of what he might do; but it wasn’t like he was a ghost or anything. Thus I moved my head in denial, not afraid of him.
Then Jiang Li said: “You are afraid of him. On our wedding day only I realized this that you are afraid of him.”
I bowed my head a bit and my heart began to tremble in trepidation. Was I scared of Yu Zhi Fei? But why should I fear him?
Jiang Li was an expert in the art of mind reading and very quickly he answered the doubts in my heart: “In fact you are not afraid of him, you dread to face the past where both of you were still together.”
Uh?
Jiang Li pressed harder and harder: “Xiao Guan Yan, you must admit that you really are good for nothing. After being cheated by the other person, you can only dare to hide yourself. Desperately wanted to forget him and even when you couldn’t forget him you could only pretend that you have. Just seeing the face of the person who hurt you badly you immediately, immediately wanted to run way. Evading him and evading the situation as much as possible. In fact your case is a true example of ‘once bitten, twice shy.’ Now you are even scared of a rope, not to mention the amount of fear a snake can instill in your heart.”
Bleakly, I raised my head: “You are talking so confidently as if all this is a fact.”
