C126 We Were Together
"What?" Yu Qi was stunned. When he looked up at his handsome face, he seemed to see the pain in his eyes.
Was he seeing things?
Lu Bei Chen stared at her with a deep gaze. His thin lips curled into a self-deprecating smile." Didn't you hate me for leaving you behind all those years ago? After that, you never looked at me seriously again. You didn't pick up my call, didn't reply to my letter, and even deliberately avoided me! Yu Qi, how long do you hate me? Tell me!"
"I..." Yu Qi opened his mouth to explain, but he didn't know where to begin.
What do you mean by not picking up his phone call, not replying to his message, and deliberately avoiding him!
Shouldn't he be the one who didn't pick up the phone and didn't reply to his messages? Shouldn't he be the one who didn't want to see her?
"Lu Bei Chen, no matter what, you are still a dignified CEO. If the bad guy complains about such an underhanded method, you don't have to do it!"
"What?" Lu Bei Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. His tight jawline seemed like it would break at any moment.
Yu Qi blinked his eyes and felt as if he was about to be blinded by the strong sunlight. Suddenly, a light flashed in his mind.
Could it be...
Lu Bei Chen saw that she was deep in thought, as if she was thinking about something. He immediately asked, "What does that mean?"
"No, nothing..." Yu Qi came back to his senses and licked his lips. His voice was dry and dry.
Lu Bei Chen did not believe her. Judging from her appearance, it was obvious that she was hiding something.
"Are you sure you don't want to tell me? I'll give you another chance!"
"Didn't you say it already... Hmm..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lu Bei Chen lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.
What the hell!
'Can you not kiss me just because of a disagreement?'
'Can you be a little more pure?!'
Yu Qi could not push him away, but he was not willing to be led by the nose by him. He opened his mouth and bit his lips hard. He bit hard and the taste of blood quickly spread in his mouth.
Lu Bei Chen frowned in pain, but he did not let go of her.
Compared to not having her, this little pain was nothing!
Yu Qi saw that he was not letting go, so he could not really bite off his lips.
Lu Bei Chen... was actually very annoying.
Because he had always been soft and stubborn. Since he was young, he seemed to follow her every order, but she knew very well that no matter how much she begged or cried, it would be useless when Lu Bei Chen made a decision.
For example, when he wanted to study in America that year!
Lu Bei Chen did not care about her broken lips. He kissed her to his heart's content. A hoarse voice came from between his lips and teeth, "If you don't tell me now, I don't mind having sex with you here."
Yu Qi's body could not help but shiver. He was worried that someone would see him, so he twisted his body with all his might, but he could not break free from his restraints. He was like a fish on a chopping block. The feeling of letting him do whatever he wanted was too despairing. He was so angry that his face turned red and he cursed, "Lu Bei Chen, you bastard!"
"Since you call me a bastard, if I don't do something that a bastard should do, I won't be able to live up to my reputation." A cold voice rang out. Just as the hand on his waist was about to move, Yu Qi's mood broke down and he shouted, "Lu Bei Chen, you bastard, what right do you have to treat me like this?! Back then, you were the one who wanted to leave. It was you who didn't pick up my phone call and didn't reply to my letter. It was you... You don't want me anymore!"
"What did you say?" Lu Bei Chen narrowed his eyes. Why did she say that he didn't want to answer her call?
Yu Qi did not know whether he was wronged or angry. Tears welled up in his eyes again. "You were the one who abandoned me first. You were the one who abandoned me when I needed you the most. All of you didn't want to... I... Me!"
Lu Bei Chen was stunned. When he saw her tears flowing down, his heart tightened, as if he had been cut by a blunt knife over and over again.
He had been afraid of her crying since he was young. He had never been able to resist her tears.
He let go of her hand and wiped away her tears. His voice slowly softened. "You called me and even wrote a letter?"
How come he had never received a call from her? And he had never received a letter from her!
Yu Qi cried and cried. When he thought about what happened that year, he still felt as though he was in hell.
He could not understand why everything changed so quickly.
Her father, Mummy, was not her father. Even Lu Bei Chen had left. It was as if she had lost the whole world in an instant.
Her powerless hands tightly gripped his clothes, and her fingertips were pale. The sound of sobbing was indistinct and intermittent.
"Lu Bei Chen... I don't hate you... Even the person closest to me doesn't want me. What right do I have to hate you? I just... I just can't return to the past... I am... I am the daughter of a murderer..."
Even though she had once raised her head and said that she was the daughter of a murderer, she was not wrong. However, in the end, this had become the humblest part of her heart.
Yu Qi used to be the little princess of the Yu Family, and she had been doted on by countless people. She had the confidence to stand beside Lu Bei Chen. But now, Yu Qi was merely the daughter of a murderer. He was nothing. Was she qualified to stand by his side?
Lu Bei Chen suddenly hugged her tightly with both of his hands. He wished he could rub her into his bones. His dark and deep eyes were filled with endless heartache. He pressed his lips against her forehead. "You are 77. You are my 77."
What murderer's daughter? He had never cared about that.
Yu Qi cried so hard that he could not catch his breath. The sun was too bright. She closed her eyes and could not stop her tears from flowing out.
Even though Lu Bei Chen was hugging her now, she could not feel any warmth. She only felt cold.
The white hospital, the strong smell of disinfectant, the cold scalpel and that indifferent face.
The coldness from the bottom of her heart spread throughout her entire body and even to her limbs and bones.
Lu Bei Chen had no idea that she had contacted him.
He did not know.
He had been blaming her in his heart all this time. The reason why he forced himself to maintain his pride and face and refused to speak first turned out to be a misunderstanding.
"Seven, let's be together!" The moment he spoke, his heart suddenly ached.
He had thought that he didn't need to say such a thing to her for the rest of his life, because they would always be together.
Who would have thought that they would also be separated, that they would also hate each other and waste so much time.
Now, since he didn't plan to let go, what difference would it make if he said it earlier or later?
If she didn't want to speak first, then let him speak first.
When Yu Qi heard his words, his body clearly froze. Even his tears seemed to have stopped, and there was no reaction on his face.
Lu Bei Chen let go of her slightly. He lifted her face with both of his hands and lowered his head to suck away the tears on her face. He said in a hoarse voice, "Seventhirty, be my girlfriend. You have no right to refuse."
