If possible, I would rather you never see Xiaobai in your life.
However, she was unable to defend herself, her lips were trembling, and she was as pale and weak as her heart.
He suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed her hand firmly: "Mai Mai... we can't do this anymore. For Xiao Bai's sake, please, for Xiao Bai's sake... can't we live like ordinary people?"
Her legs lost the strength to support them and were teetering on the edge of collapse. In her ears was his frantic shouting, "Let's reconcile...Mai, let's reconcile..."
How to reconcile?
Are the two unrelated?
Does true reconciliation mean that we no longer hate each other, are no longer hostile to each other, and stop interfering in each other's internal affairs? Is it that you walk your Yangguan Road and I cross my single-plank bridge? Is it that we never interact with each other until we die?
If so, she, Qiao Xiaomai, is willing to reconcile.
Even if it means ceding land and paying compensation, we still admit defeat.
More than 300,000 people died in the Nanjing Massacre. China suffered 35 million casualties in the eight years of the War of Resistance. The Japanese army killed 700,000 people. The Chinese government even reconciled with the Japanese government!!!!
The government can "bear the humiliation and bear the burden", let alone us ordinary people with no dignity.
"Wheat, please, for Xiaobai's sake...can we reconcile?"
His eyes were burning, with an infinitely amplified heat and expectation, staring at her collarbone, staring at her slim figure under her big shirt... He did not hide it, did not even bother to hide it, and screamed naked with his eyes: I want it
You! I want this woman.
Mai, after reconciliation, please marry me and stay with me.
What he hoped to reconcile with her, what he hoped to turn hostility into friendship, was completely different from what she understood.
"Wheat, please, for Xiaobai's sake... don't marry Xiaodong... Let's be together and raise Xiaobai well so that she has the best home... okay?"
Don’t marry Xiaodong!
Don’t marry Xiaodong!
This is the central argument.
She woke up from a dream, raised her head, and stared blankly at the eager face opposite: Yi Xiangxi! Lord Yi!
His face showed a sense of sincerity that he had never seen in his life. He was like a young man who was truly in love, so pure, so full of spring, so frank.
However, she always thinks of the man from back then: arrogant, vicious, hypocritical, shameless... how he appeared on her wedding night! How he drove her to death in the Jiang family; how he insulted her in front of his parents' mourning hall;
How he tortured her unscrupulously in front of Bingbing...
Now, his face is covered with vicissitudes of life.
Now, he is extremely haggard and tortured by years of loneliness.
Now, there is a new light in his heart because of his daughter who fell from the sky...
Yes, he was still such a handsome man, much more handsome than Liang Xiaodong, Jiang and his party, and all the men she knew... And because of this handsomeness, his past cruelty was disguised, just like
He is a kind and good father! A good man!
Now, for the sake of his daughter, his relatives, and his brothers, he did not hesitate to be condescending and actually asked to be with her.
Now, if he lives with his enemy's daughter for the rest of his life, will he no longer be afraid of disgracing his troubled parents?
"Mai... I... I always want to treat you well... But, I don't know what to do... I don't know how to make you believe in me..."
