I lowered my head and stood in front of the mirror. Ten thousand alpacas were galloping in my heart. I couldn't describe this feeling. I wanted to throw a tantrum, but I couldn't. Suddenly, Duanmu Que hugged me from behind. I lifted my head and looked at the two of us in the mirror. Duanmu Que wasn't short. I had to wear high heels to reach his neck. His eyes weren't as gentle as Han Hao's. There was a trace of arrogance in his eyes. His skin was very good. Perhaps it was because he often took care of his skin, or perhaps he had lived a pampered life. His skin was very delicate, with a high nose and thin lips. Looking at it this way, he was still very good-looking.
Duanmu Que hugged my waist and looked into my eyes in the mirror. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but no words came out. He let me go, and I turned to look at him with a puzzled face. He didn't look me in the eye and walked to the door.
I thought to myself, What's wrong with him? Why is he hesitating?
He took off his jacket and threw it at me. It almost hit my face. Luckily, I reacted quickly. Otherwise, I wouldn't know how hard it would have hit me.
"Put this on when you go out," he said and left the room.
The difference in attitude was too big. I didn't know which one was the real Duanmu Que. But after thinking about it, there wasn't much difference. They both liked to use violence. No matter if it was real violence or silent violence, one was torture, and the other was torture to the heart.
I simply tidied up my clothes and put on Duanmu Que's jacket. I walked out of the room. There were still many friends and relatives who hadn't left yet. They gathered together and talked about everything. Our two families were busy greeting everyone. My father and mother were smiling brightly today. I hadn't seen my father so gentle in a long time.
After greeting the last group of guests, Duanmu Que and I slumped on the chairs. I was lying on the table. I didn't even have the strength to drink water. He sat across from me and fiddled with his phone. His face was full of "impatience."
"Li Er, we should go." I heard my mother's voice, and I lifted my head. My father and mother were ready to go back. I stood up.
Mother gently stroked my face. "Remember to come back and see us when you go home." Then her eyes reddened again, and tears welled up in them.
"Let's go. It's not like we'll never see each other again." The father comforted the mother and led her out of the hall.
My heart is empty. I will have to rely on myself for the path that I am about to take in the future. At this moment, Duanmu Que's parents walked towards us.
"Xiao Li, pack up. We should go home." Duanmu Que's mother held my hand and looked at me with a smile.
In my opinion, Duanmu Que's mother, Xiao Fengya, was a very kind and amiable woman. When I found out that I was going to marry Duanmu Que, I did a detailed investigation on his parents. When she was young, his mother was a famous actress. She was also the daughter of a famous family. Later on, she fell in love with Duanmu Tachio and gave birth to Duanmu Que. No wonder Duanmu Que's appearance was so good. It was because of his good genes. I thought that in the entire Kurosawa, the only person who would not harm me was Xiao Fengya.
"Xiao Li, what are you thinking about?" Xiao Fengya held my hand and asked me worriedly.
"Ah? Auntie, it's nothing. I'm not thinking about anything. " I came back to my senses and saw her worried expression. Instantly, I felt a warm feeling that was not unfamiliar at all.
"Silly child, you're already married, yet you're still calling me auntie. You should call me popo, but popo seems too distant. If you don't mind, you can call me mom, okay?" Xiao Fengya winked cutely at me.
I couldn't control myself and laughed out loud: "En, mom, sorry, I'm not used to it yet." I awkwardly changed the way I addressed her.
Xiao Fengya looked at me awkwardly. Hearing me change the way I addressed her, she was very happy and smiled like a flower.
Duanmu Que couldn't sit still. He stood up with a disgusted expression and pointed at me and said: "Mom! Are you kidding me? I'm your biological child, okay? Why do I feel like she's your biological child? "
"Que 'er, don't mess around. Look at Xiao Li, she's such a good child. I liked her from the first time I saw her." Xiao Fengya said and hugged me. Her full breasts pressed down on me and made it hard for me to breathe.
I felt that Duanmu Que's gaze had already killed me a thousand times. I didn't know how much he cursed me in his heart. I said helplessly: "Auntie, I … I'm a bit uncomfortable, can you let me go first?" I felt that Xiao Fengya definitely didn't hear me. I only felt that she was lovingly stroking my hair.
"Mom, let her go!" Duanmu Que walked around the table and arrived next to me. He grabbed my arm and pulled me into his embrace. My face was filled with black lines.
Xiao Fengya covered her mouth and stood on the side laughing. The two of us stood on the side with a head full of question marks.
"Mom, what are you laughing at?" Duanmu Que stood there awkwardly.
"I'm not laughing at anything. Aren't you very interested in her? Why are you pretending … I haven't finished speaking, why are you pushing me?" Without waiting for Xiao Fengya to finish, Duanmu Que pushed her out.
"Mom, are you okay? Go out and wait for us in the car. We'll be there in a bit." Duanmu Que pushed Xiao Fengya out of the hall. He let out a long breath, turned around, and looked at the stupefied me.
The moment he turned his head, I suddenly felt that he wasn't that annoying. Actually, he was just a simple and straightforward big boy. Wasn't that the warm scene just now the life that I had once imagined? But did I really have to compromise like this? No, I couldn't have any feelings for him. No matter how outstanding he was, it would never be possible between him and me.
Duanmu Que walked in front of me. His face was a little red. He didn't look me in the eyes. "Don't listen to my mom's nonsense. But to be honest, I did hate that marriage contract. I hated you. That's why I tortured you. I thought about resisting, but I still ended up here. So, let nature take its course. "
I looked at him quietly. I had guessed these words before. Duanmu Que was right. Let nature take its course. I only hoped that I could get the information my father wanted from Duanmu Que's house. As long as I could contribute to Red Minghui, it would be enough.
"Mm, it's okay." I didn't want to be tied down by someone I wouldn't give my feelings to. I opened Duanmu Que's gentleness to me in my mind. Confirm, delete.
"Okay, let's go. Mom and Dad are waiting for us." I followed Duanmu Que's footsteps to the entrance of the hall. I turned around and looked at the red carpet, the beautiful stage, and the neat tables. Everything that happened here was like a dream.
