I looked at him and said, "Idiot, I'm not that narrow-minded. I know you have a lot of things to do, so you shouldn't spend too much energy on me. I'll definitely stay here and quietly take care of myself. You can be at ease and work hard to earn money. Try to earn enough money to feed your three or four children's milk powder." I made a face at him.
"That's a must, I believe that I will definitely have the ability, but the prerequisite is that you have to give me the motivation," Duanmu Que looked at me and said.
"I will definitely give you motivation. You don't have to worry about that. We still have a long way to go, right?" Duanmu Que held me in his arms and gently kissed my forehead.
After that, Duanmu Que rarely came to my house. Occasionally, he would contact me through WeChat, but it didn't take long before he rushed to work. I knew he was busy, so I didn't want to disturb him. However, I was worried about his health since I wasn't by his side. I didn't know if he was doing well. I really wanted to get better quickly and stay by his side. Even if I couldn't do anything for him, just quietly accompanying him would make me happy.
Every two or three days, he would stay at my house for a night. Every time, I wanted to talk to him and listen to him tell me about the things that happened around him. But after a few words, he would fall asleep next to me. Looking at him sleeping soundly, I didn't have the heart to wake him up. I could only quietly lie next to him. The next morning, before I got up, he had already left for work. He spent less and less time with me, and the number of times he contacted me also decreased.
Almost two weeks had passed, and Duanmu Que hadn't contacted me for two days. Although I called him, he said he was busy. He didn't wait for me to finish talking before he hung up. I suddenly felt a little lost. This inexplicable feeling of insecurity made me feel that something was going to happen. However, I still believed in him. I believed that he wouldn't ignore me. I believed that his heart was still thinking about me.
I didn't think about those messy things anymore. I just wanted my body to get better as soon as possible. Then, I could return to Duanmu Que's house and stay by his side to accompany him. Being separated for a long time would often cause the feelings between two people to fade, but the happiness of absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Two weeks later, my mother accompanied me to the hospital for a comprehensive check-up. Finally, my body recovered completely. I was very happy because I could see Duanmu Que again. I really missed him. I had been away from him for a long time. Would he miss me too?
The day before I decided to leave home, my mother helped me pack my luggage. She said a lot of things to me. She could tell that I really loved Duanmu Que. She told me that love was a matter between two people. Two people should learn to give and think for each other. She also told me that no matter what happened, I should face it rationally and not be too emotional. I knew that my mother said those words for my own good, but at the same time, I also believed that Duanmu Que wouldn't do anything that would hurt me.
The next day, my mother arranged for the driver to take me back to Duanmu's house. When I was about to reach the gate, I saw Xiao Fengya waiting for me at the gate. When she saw my car arrive at the gate, she welcomed me. When she saw me, she hugged me tightly. I could feel that she was very excited.
Xiao Fengya arranged for the housekeeper to carry my luggage upstairs. She took my hand and led me to the living room. Xiao Fengya held my hand tightly, her eyes glistening with tears. She looked at me and asked, "Xiao Li, how have you been? Have you recovered?"
I nodded and said, "Mom, I'm much better. How have you and Dad been?"
"We've been fine. When you weren't here, it felt like something was missing in the house. It was lifeless. We couldn't get used to not seeing you and Duanmu Que together."
I smiled and said, "How could that be? I'm back now, aren't I?"
Xiao Fengya held my hand and said, "It's good that you're back. It's good that you're back."
I looked around and didn't see anyone else. I turned and asked, "Mom, where did Dad and the others go? How come I don't see them? "
Xiao Fengya said, "Li Xiong went to the company. There are some things he needs to take care of. Yu Xin left early. Maybe a friend is looking for her. As for Que 'er …" Xiao Fengya paused.
"Where did he go?" I asked.
Xiao Fengya sighed and said, "Ah, the company has been too busy recently. He hasn't been home for a while. I guess he's at the company right now."
I nodded and said, "Ah, okay. I don't have anything to do right now. How about I go to the company to find him?"
Xiao Fengya said, "Do you want to rest for a while? You can wait for him to come back. I'll call him later. "
I shook my head and said, "No need, Mom. I'll go to his company and give him a surprise."
Xiao Fengya smiled and said, "Okay, okay. Be careful on the way. I'll have the driver take you there."
Just like that, I arrived at Duanmu Que's company. The girl at the front desk greeted me warmly. "Hello. How can I help you?" It seemed that she didn't know me. That wasn't strange. After all, not everyone in the underworld knew me.
I looked at her and smiled. "I'm here to see Duanmu Que."
"Please wait a moment." She dialed a number and said a few words to the person on the other end. After hanging up, she walked over to me and said, "Hello, please come to the reception room." I followed her to the reception room and she left.
After a while, a woman in business attire came in. She sat across from me and smiled. "Hello. Are you looking for General Manager Duanmu?" I nodded.
She continued, "Do you have an appointment with him?"
I thought for a moment and said, "Um … I don't have an appointment with him."
She looked at me and said, "It's like this. The General Manager isn't in the company today."
I looked at her in confusion and asked, "Isn't today a working day? How could he not be in the company? "
"Ah, it's like this, Madam. I'm the General Manager's secretary. He really isn't in the company today."
"But his mother told me that he was in the company."
"Oh, so you know Madam." I nodded. She continued, "It's like this. Let me tell you, our company has been discussing a cooperation project. The General Manager has brought all the relevant staff to the hotel to work on the project."
