Thank you for Waiting, Mister Tang!
Chapter 31

Pei Qiqi, I like you (1)

By the time Pei Qiqi had left, the sky had turned dark/ However, it would only take her 1 minute from here to the bus stop.

She dragged her luggage and walked forward aimlessly.

Her feet had grown cysts from walking. It hurt but she didn’t go tend to it.

Because her heart hurt more.

The road was long and flowers grew on the sides. The summer night was especially silent and only her footsteps could be heard.

Very quickly, all this serenity was interrupted. A car slowly drove by and stopped right in front of Pei Qiqi, stopping her from going on.

Pei Qiqi paused. The window rolled down and it was Lin Jinrong.

He looked at her quietly and his expression was complex.

“Get on!”

Pei Qiq stepped back and shook her head aggressively, “There’s no need!”

At that moment, to say she felt nothing would be a lie. But she knew very well that between them, the possibility ended when she stepped into Tang Yu’s bedroom.

How she felt towards him was her last dream. When she awakened, there was nothing left.

Luckily, neither of them put that out in the open…

Lin Jinrong opened the car door and stepped out. He came to her.

Pei Qiqi grabbed onto her luggage and wanted to leave but the handle of the suitcase was being gripped by him tightly…

Then, his voice croaked out, “Qiqi, I’m sorry!”

Pei Qiqi was considered strong. Before the Pei family, Zhou Meilin, and Pei Huan, she had gone through hell countless times and was indestructible. However, right now, Lin Jinrong’s apology had broken down her last trace of softness.

Her hand nudged and let go of him. Her head raised slightly to stop herself from crying.

She had liked Lin Jinrong. Perhaps even now, she still does…

The idea of like was a mysterious word.

Love was an emotion that one could unleash completely. But liking someone didn’t mean that…

That was why it was so wonderful but also caused so much pain…

When her gaze once again landed on his young and handsome face, she had restored her normal calmness. There was even now a matter-of-fact look on her face, “Lin Jinrong, what’s there to be sorry about? In the future, you will be my brother-in-law. Plus, I am doing great right now!”

She looked at him smiling. However, in her eyes, there was no joy. “Look at my clothes. Before, I wouldn’t’ even know what brand it is…. It’s expensive!”

“Lin Jinrong, Pei Huan didn’t lie. I have already moved out and I’m now living with another man. He treats me well and can provide me with everything…” Pei Qiqi stared right at him and didn’t hide.

Lin Jinrong’s pupils constricted. His fingers covered her shoulder, “Pei Qiqi, let’s not talk about this anymore!”

She thought he would believe her?

Even if… he did, he could also give her all those things!

Lin Jinrong was feeling a little cold.

Pei Qiqi struggled out of his grip, “Lin Jinrong, don’t do this anymore!”

She walked on and he stood behind her. Then, a loud voice headed her way, “Pei Qiqi, I like you!”

Pei Qiqi’s body jolted to a stop. She didn’t respond nor did she continue her footsteps.

She could no longer bear his emotions. The Pei Qiqi today was no longer the Pei Qiqi from before.

If she could choose again, if Lin Jinrong was never with Pei Huan, she thought she would still choose to enter Tang Yu’s room… her birth had rid her of all choices.

However, she cried. She allowed herself to release herself and to cry for her feelings towards Lin Jinrong.
