Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Call the police? Qiao Xi was stunned and didn’t know how to react.
“No, you can’t call the police!” w.a.n.g Wentao’s expression changed when he heard that they were going to call the police. He wriggled on the ground like a maggot. He crawled in front of Qiao Xi and didn’t care about his bleeding ear. He begged, “Qiao Xi, I was wrong. You can’t call the police! I still have to go to school… If you call the police, I’ll be finished. I was just momentarily confused. I know I was wrong. Qiao Xi, please forgive me!”
Qiao Xi had a complicated look on her face as she looked at w.a.n.g Wentao, who always looked down on her. She and w.a.n.g Wentao were lovers from a small mountain village. They had escaped from families that valued sons over daughters. When she got together with w.a.n.g Wentao, who had entered university, Qiao Xi thought that their suffering was only temporary and that they would have a sweet future together. After he graduated, he would marry her, have a child with her, and have a family of their own. The fantasy of having such a family supported her through heavy work time and again, and let her endure w.a.n.g Wentao’s beatings again and again.
Qiao Xi felt that the reason why w.a.n.g Wentao was so irritable was that the pressure from studying at university was too great. She thought that as long as she earned more money, everything would be better. She gave all her money to w.a.n.g Wentao and worked three jobs a day, she also paid for his education. She was afraid that w.a.n.g Wentao would be looked down upon at school, so she bought him clothes and shoes worth a few hundred dollars, and bought him a new phone. She willingly ate only steamed buns and pickled vegetables and she would not buy new clothes for years.
But what about w.a.n.g Wentao? For just a bit of money, he sent her to another man’s bed.
!!
“w.a.n.g Wentao, have you ever thought about what would have happened to me if Mrs. Ji didn’t come today?” Qiao Xi’s eyes were filled with sorrow, “I gave you everything that I could give you, yet you treat me like this. Are you even worthy of me? Have you ever thought about what I should do in the future?”
“Qiao Xi… I-I was just muddle-headed. It was because Brother Zhao gave me too much money. I was blinded by money…” w.a.n.g Wentao avoided Qiao Xi’s gaze and he begged bitterly, “I will marry you! Even if you really slept with Brother Zhao, I would marry you! Qiao Xi, you know that I love you. I still want to marry you and have a child that belongs to us…”
“w.a.n.g Wentao, are you a man or not?!” Qiao Xi was trembling all over. She grabbed the kettle from the side and threw it directly at w.a.n.g Wentao. “I was really blind to be with you for so many years!”
A man who did not even have the courage to face what he had done, was he really worth it for her to like him? Was it worth wasting so many years of her life?! What kind of man did she even like all these years?!
The kettle hit w.a.n.g Wentao, making a dull sound. The cold water wet his clothes, and w.a.n.g Wentao looked even more embarra.s.sed.
“I’m not a man, I’m not a person. Qiao Xi, I really know my mistake. Please don’t call the police…” w.a.n.g Wentao gave up his pride. He desperately said, “I was greedy. Qiao Xi, please forgive me, okay? If I didn’t love you, how could a student of a top university like me be with a village girl who only has a junior high school diploma like you? I rejected so many female students who liked me. I love you, but we’re too poor.” He cried bitterly, he struggled to hug Qiao Xi’s thigh and cried, “I know I’m wrong, Qiao Xi. I regret it. Give me another chance. I’ll treat you well in the future, okay?”
Qiao Xi looked at w.a.n.g Wentao with a complicated expression.
“Bang!” At this moment, Shen Hanxing suddenly raised her long leg and kicked w.a.n.g Wentao’s stomach without hesitation. w.a.n.g Wentao screamed in pain.
“Such haughty words. Are the university students from top universities that great?” Shen Hanxing’s eyes were filled with anger. She did not show any mercy as she punched w.a.n.g Wentao repeatedly. “What right do you have to look down on Qiao Xi? You rely on her for food and clothing. You relied on Qiao Xi all your life. Of course, you don’t dare to fall in love with other people! Because other people are not as stupid as Qiao Xi who loved you and supported such useless trash like you! A gigolo! Qiao Xi is beautiful and can endure hardships. She can even clean up this kind of broken house to make it look neat. But what about you? You are the trash who is not worthy of her! You even dare to raise your status up with your education and belittle Qiao Xi. Where did you get that kind of pride from?”
Shen Hanxing said these to him and punched him. w.a.n.g Wentao, this man, even if he was begging for mercy from Qiao Xi, he was still putting on a high and mighty act. It was as if marrying Qiao Xi was like giving alms. What right did he have?
