Chapter 88 Call me husband again
"Are you kidding me?"
Kong Nanzhu couldn't believe his ears.
"I'm not kidding."
Qin Qi has been thinking a lot recently, thinking about what he did before, his attitude towards the people around him and the way he handles things.
He discovered that he had been terribly wrong.
While he ignored his parents' feelings, he also ignored his wife.
From an earlier time, since the time they were lovers, he had never put himself in Kong Nanzhu's shoes.
He was always used to defining the right and wrong of things by himself, and believed that he had the ability to control everything. When he was planning his future, he assumed that Kong Nanzhu would always be by his side, but he never considered whether she was willing to accept his plan.
When they first fell in love, Qin Qi was busy filming and promoting his movies. He never missed any promotional activities. In order to attract more directors' attention, he accepted almost all invitations.
Therefore, he had no time to chat with Kong Nanzhu, nor did he have time to go on dates with her, but Kong Nanzhu always expressed understanding and consideration, so that he thought that this was how things should be, and did not take it to heart at all. He also felt that the way the two of them got along perfectly fit his schedule.
He never thought about how much grievance and anxiety Kong Nanzhu had hidden behind what he thought was a perfect match.
Kong Nanzhu was right, he loved himself too much. In all relationships, he always put his own ideas first. The prerequisite for maintaining such a distorted relationship was that the people who loved him were willing to give him unlimited tolerance and understanding.
Even a fool knows that this doesn't make sense.
Facts have proved that Kong Nanzhu can live well without him, and her life is getting better and better, but he cannot live without Kong Nanzhu.
Qin Qi took a deep breath and thought for a long time about how to start the conversation. He also thought about simply breaking the agreement and unilaterally refusing to get the divorce certificate, but doing so would be too willful and too much like the Qin Qi of the past. Since he was determined to make a change, he should let Kong Nanzhu see his growth.
Qin Qi: "I was such a jerk before, and I made you suffer a lot. I owed you countless dates and a wedding. I didn't consider your feelings. I mistook possessiveness for love and hurt your self-esteem. I will learn to think from your perspective."
Kong Nanzhu lowered her head, her long eyelashes casting a shadow under her eyelids, as if she was seriously considering whether or not to give Qin Qi a chance.
"I will respect you. I have never thought about separating from you, and I can't imagine my future life without you. If you want to abandon me, I deserve it... If I really make a change, can you give me a chance?"
Qin Qi was as devout as a believer, waiting for judgment from his god.
Finally, Kong Nanzhu just glanced at his watch and said, "It's five forty-five now."
Qin Qi was stunned.
"We wasted seven minutes in the hallway, more than three of which you spent on your wording."
Kong Nanzhu's voice was very calm, so calm that Qin Qi couldn't find the angle of invasion.
"I just said in the room that I had something to do at six o'clock, but you still chose to chase me out and finish what you wanted to say."
Qin Qi's heart sank into a bottomless cage as if it had been hit by a blunt hammer. He found that no matter what he said or what he did, it was wrong in front of Kong Nanzhu.
Kong Nanzhu continued, "Have you really considered me? You probably haven't considered whether what you are saying now will affect my mood in the future. You have also not thought about whether I will lose my manners in the cooperation and lose the initiative in the negotiation because of the few minutes you wasted."
"You said you would learn to think from your perspective, but if it were me in the past, I would even put things like our wedding anniversary behind your work schedule. I would always put you first in everything. Do you think you can do that?"
Qin Qi clenched his fists and unclenched his hands hanging on both sides of his body. He tried hard to find evidence to prove his determination, but found that he had no brilliant achievements to show off.
Kong Nanzhu curled the corners of his lips and looked at Qin Qi deeply. "To be honest, I don't believe in your so-called change. I know you better than you do."
After saying this, Kong Nanzhu left in a hurry, leaving Qin Qi no room to explain. It seemed that she was really in a hurry.
Qin Qi squatted down slowly.
Qin Qi had never been so frustrated about anything before. Nothing he did was right and everything he said was wrong.
The key point is that he was clearly aware that he could not impress Kong Nanzhu.
Her heart had completely expelled him from the country.
The dinner ended early in the evening. Kong Nanzhu did not like the self-important attitude of the brand and retorted a few words to them, and the cooperation fell through.
The main reason was that she was in a bad mood today. What Qin Qi said in the hospital had been stuck in her mind, affecting her thinking and judgment abilities. Under normal circumstances, she would definitely not care about the quality of a department manager.
As soon as he got back to the car , Kong Nanzhu received a call from Song Linyuan. It must be the brand that came to him to complain.
Song Linyuan: "I heard that you showed off your prowess today and scolded the manager in charge?"
Kong Nanzhu was a little tired, slumped in the driver's seat with lifeless eyes, "Well, it's not that exaggerated. I just said that he has a big head but a small capacity, doesn't understand anything but gives orders blindly, and he got angry. Did he complain to you?"
Song Linyuan was so happy, "You are so awesome, I didn't even dare to tell you the truth in front of him, so you don't plan to do this order? This is your most expensive promotion this year."
"No, I don't want to hear him screaming like a rooster anymore. You can transfer it to someone else."
Song Linyuan's laughter was filled with a hint of evil and rogue spirit: "I just like your temper."
Kong Nanzhu felt a little strange in his heart and did not respond.
Noticing Kong Nanzhu's silence, Song Linyuan became a little anxious.
He had wanted to make it clear a long time ago that he had never spent so much time pursuing a woman , and he no longer had the patience to continue playing the role of the selfless paladin.
Song Linyuan: "Is it still on tonight?"
"A little later, I have to go to the hospital to get something." She had to get the thermos back, otherwise she wouldn't be able to bring soup to Shen Jun tomorrow.
"How about a live broadcast tonight? I've prepared something a little different, and I'm sure our fans will like it very much."
Song Linyuan deliberately emphasized the stress of the word "we".
Just after hanging up the phone with Song Linyuan, Qin Qi sent her a message.
Is it over?
Kong Nanzhu didn't know what he wanted to ask, so he didn't reply. Soon the next message popped up.
If it’s late, don’t come to the hospital. I’ll send the thermos back to you.
Is he free recently?
The graduation exams seemed to be over indeed.
Kong Nanzhu only replied with two words, "No need", but he didn't know that the person who received the instant reply message jumped up from the sofa excitedly.
This was the fastest time Kong Nanzhu had responded to him recently.
Qin Qi missed the time a few months ago when they could video chat every day before going to bed. When the connection was successful, Kong Nanzhu would always show a sweet and bright smile to the screen.
Now even receiving a message from Kong Nanzhu can make him happy for a long time. How on earth did he end up like this?
Kong Nanzhu came to get the thermos, and Qin Qi followed her downstairs. When they reached the hospital entrance, Qin Qi couldn't help it, and finally opened his arms and hugged Kong Nanzhu from behind.
Just as Kong Nanzhu was about to push him away, she heard Qin Qi whispering in her ear, "Wife, can you please call me husband again?"
Qin Qi seldom called her "wife" before, except when they were in love and the two were inseparable. He would flirtatiously call her "wife" while speeding up the pace of his conquest.
It was difficult for Kong Nanzhu to resist the emotions that struck her soul from the depths of her memory. Sometimes she would feel that those days were not real. Sometimes she would recall those sweet moments over and over again like a self-mutilator, licking her wounds alone in the middle of the night and ending up in tears.
But at this moment, Kong Nanzhu was sober.
