Life 1984

Li Yunhai asked: "Mr. Ji, you live here? Is this a house you bought or rented?"

Ji Wenshu drank a little too much and leaned back in the chair groggily, propping her chin with her hand. She said, "I bought it. I really like the feeling of this kind of house with a garden. After coming to Gusu, I looked for this kind of house with a garden everywhere. Even if the garden is very small, I think it's okay."

Li Yunhai smiled and said, "What a coincidence. I live nearby too."

Ji Wenshu exclaimed: "You live around here? Why haven't I seen you before?"

Li Yunhai laughed and said, "Haven't I seen you before?"

Ji Wenshu said: "The house I bought is very small. But I like the feeling of a large courtyard with high walls. Once the door is closed, it becomes my own little world."

Li Yunhai said: "I see, you are criticizing me. Our villa in Xizhou is not good enough and does not make you feel safe."

Ji Wenshu chuckled and said, "Boss Li, you must say this to me. How can I feel bad about it?"

When he arrived at her house, Li Yunhai parked the car.

Ji Wenshu got out of the car, held onto the wall, retched several times, and almost vomited.

Seeing that he was in great pain, Li Yunhai pushed the door open and got out of the car. He held her arm and said, "I'll take you home. You can't drink. Don't drink like this next time."

Ji Wenshu covered her mouth lightly and said, "I don't usually have a chance to drink! Look at how many company parties I have attended? Aren't I happy today?"

Li Yunhai said, "I see you don't want to drink because you're happy! You want to drink because you're depressed! Is it because we discussed your dating that you feel bad? This is my fault, I shouldn't have mentioned this!"

Ji Wenshu staggered, pointed her finger into the air, and smiled stupidly: "Mr. Li, this has nothing to do with you. It's my fault! I'm so old, but I'm still unmarried. My family, my friends, and my classmates are all talking about me behind my back, and even laughing at me, saying that I'm an old aunt who can't get married!"

Li Yunhai said, "How can you be an old aunt? An old aunt refers to an unmarried older woman. This means she will never get married or find a man, and will remain a virgin until she dies! Haven't you found a boyfriend? You can only be considered an older woman at best!"

Ji Wenshu stretched out her hand and pushed it towards Li Yunhai's face: "Mr. Li, you are killing me! I am just an old aunt! Although I had a boyfriend before, I didn't give him the one."

Li Yunhai was surprised and asked, "Why didn't you give it to him? You have been together for so many years, and you were both in your twenties at the time, right? Is it because of feudal ideas?"

Ji Wenshu said, "I made an agreement with him that I would give it to him on the night of our wedding. But he ended up sleeping with someone else before we even got married! Isn't this ironic?"

Li Yunhai said: "Perhaps, you shouldn't take yourself so seriously. When a man likes you, he definitely wants to get you. If he can't get you, then he will think that you don't really love him and don't want to give him, so you have to settle for the next best thing."

Ji Wenshu was stunned and asked, "Really? You men all think like this? In ancient times, didn't people always get married before being together?"

Li Yunhai said, "Boss Ji, you also know that was ancient times! Before getting married, people in ancient times didn't even know what the other person looked like! How could they be like you, dating for several years but not getting married? Between people, the best time to get to know each other is when they first meet! The best relationship between a man and a woman is also when they just get to know each other. They are curious and fresh about each other. It would be best if they could get married during this period. After that, they will slowly get tired of each other. If you don't get married after seven or eight years, and you are unwilling to give it to him, how much attraction do you think you still have to him?"

These words, like needles and fire, pierced Ji Wenshu's softest heart.

She suddenly broke down, squatted down, put her face in her hands, and cried loudly.

Li Yunhai stood beside her, at a loss.

Fortunately, it was late at night and there were no pedestrians in the alley.

Otherwise, if someone sees him, they would think he is bullying a woman!
"Hey, Mr. Ji, don't cry!"

"But I want to cry!"

"You can cry if you want, but let's go in first, okay? You can cry after we get home! Otherwise, others will see us and call the police, saying I abused you!" "You did abuse me! Your words are like killing someone without spilling blood!"

"I'm just telling the truth! You're already an adult, do I need to beat around the bush when talking to you?"

"Okay, you're saying I'm old again, right? I'm an old woman, I can't get married, no one wants me, right?"

"No, no, listen to me, I just, I'm not - forget it, I won't say it."

Li Yunhai felt that the more he spoke, the more confused he became.

However, Ji Wenshu's emotions were becoming more and more broken!
At this time, the door of the house next door suddenly opened, and a man shouted, "Who is it? Why are you crying and howling in the middle of the night? Are you unable to get married?"

These words aroused Ji Wenshu's pain even more.

But she still got up and opened the gate.

Li Yunhai waved to his neighbor and said, "I'm sorry, she drank too much!"

The neighbor slammed the door.

Li Yunhai helped Ji Wenshu walk in.

As soon as the door was closed, Ji Wenshu lay on Li Yunhai's shoulder and cried.

Li Yunhai couldn't laugh or cry.

He really didn't expect that Ji Wenshu's heart was so weak!
Guo Wanhua, Zhu Lin, Gong Jie and other girls are a little older than Ji Wenshu, but they are much stronger in their hearts!
Li Yunhai was with the three girls, Guo, Zhu and Gong, and rarely heard them cry.

Guo Wanhua had encountered such a difficult situation before, but she never cried like a little girl.

It seems that although Ji Wenshu has grown up, she still has the mentality of a little girl!
Li Yunhai raised his hand, hesitated for a moment, and then fell on Ji Wenshu's shoulder, patted her gently, and said with a smile: "Haven't you cried enough? When other people drink too much, they want to go to the bathroom, but when you drink too much, all your tears flow out, right?"

Ji Wenshu couldn't help laughing: "Boss Li, you are so annoying. What's wrong with lending me your shoulder to cry on? Are you happy if I lie on the ground and cry?"

Li Yunhai held her head up and said with a smile, "Are you really feeling wronged?"

Ji Wenshu turned on the lights in the courtyard and said, "Can you bear it when someone says that to you? Oh! I'm sorry, Mr. Li, I, I soaked your clothes with tears!"

Only then did she realize that Li Yunhai's clothes were covered with her tears.

Li Yunhai said nonchalantly: "It's okay, I'll just go home and change my clothes."

"Take it off and I'll iron it for you." Ji Wenshu wiped her eyes.

Her eyes were red from crying and her face was flushed.

Maybe it’s because she has no experience of love, her skin is particularly white and rosy, giving people a pitiful, bright and moving feeling.

Seeing Li Yunhai staring at her, she smiled shyly and turned to go into the inner room. (End of this chapter)
