Fang Tong looked at the man in front of her and said nothing. Ding Minghui grabbed her shoulders and said, “Tongtong, you still love me, right? You wait for me for three years, just three years. After three years, I will divorce her and marry you. Then we can be together forever.”
“Ding Minghui, why do you think I can continue to wait for you for three years after you betrayed me and are now marrying another woman?” Fang Tong said faintly.
Ding Minghui was stunned, “Because I love you, you love me too, Fang Tong, we love each other.”
Haha, just because I love you, can you ruin my feelings like this? Fang Tong’s eyes were filled with sadness. She removed Ding Minghui’s hand from her shoulder and looked up at him steadily. “Ding Minghui, I don’t love you anymore. From the moment you betrayed me, I didn’t love you anymore. I said that there is no sand in my emotional world. I won’t wait for you for three years. We will never be together again, not in this life.”
“No, no, you love me, Tongtong. We have been together for so many years. You won’t give up on me easily, right?”
“Ding Minghui, who do you think I am? You can come and go at will? You can betray me if you want to, and come back if you want to. The earth doesn’t revolve around you alone.”
“Tongtong, don’t say angry words. If you don’t love me, why do you still stay in the company?” Ding Minghui asked her. This was something Ding Minghui had thought about for a long time before he figured it out. He knew Fang Tong’s personality. If she really had no feelings for him, she would not stay here at all.
Fang Tong looked at Ding Minghui with disbelief on her face. Was this the man she had loved for several years? Was this really the Ding Minghui she knew? Or had she never really known him?
“Ding Minghui, that’s enough. I, Fang Tong, never bother to use things that have been used by others. My staying here has nothing to do with you, so don’t be so self-indulgent.”
“Fang Tong.” Ding Minghui’s eyes showed a trace of anger. Facing Fang Tong’s cold eyes, he softened his tone, “Tongtong, please don’t say these insincere words to me. I know that I am sorry for you in this matter. As long as it’s three years, I promise to marry you and never betray you. Believe me.”
“Then what about your fiancée?” Fang Tong asked.
Ding Minghui was delighted, thinking that Fang Tong agreed, and said casually, “She is a stepping stone. With her help, I can become a senior executive of the company in three years, and I can buy a house in Beijing with my own strength in the future. You can buy anything you want then.”
“Pa.” Ding Minghui was slapped in the face, and he looked at Fang Tong in disbelief.
“Ding Minghui, you are shameless.” Fang Tong looked at him coldly, “I must have been blind to fall in love with you. Ding Minghui, you know, I feel sick whenever I think that I once loved a scum like you.”
Ding Minghui was stunned until Fang Tong walked away, and then he came to his senses. There was a burning pain on his face, reminding him that Fang Tong had slapped him just now.
He took his time to wait until the pain on his face was better before entering the company. However, as soon as he arrived at the office, he heard Liu Hui looking for him. He stood up and walked into Liu Hui’s office.
“Minghui, what’s wrong with your face?” Liu Hui looked at his face and asked.
Ding Minghui tilted his head, “It’s okay, is there something you want me to do?”
Liu Hui smiled, took out a stack of invitations from the drawer and spread them on the table, “The wedding will be next month, these are the invitations I chose, I think they are all good, which one do you like?”
Ding Minghui glanced at them casually and said indifferently, “You decide, as long as you like it.”
The smile on Liu Hui’s face faded a bit, “Minghui, the wedding is for the two of us.”
“Then let’s go with this one.” Ding Minghui pulled out an invitation from a pile of invitations. Liu Hui took a look and smiled, “It seems that we two really have a tacit understanding. This invitation is also my favourite. Let’s go with this one.”
“Is there anything else? If not, I’ll go out first. I have a lot of work today.”
Liu Hui nodded, and when Ding Minghui was about to leave the office, she called him, “By the way, we are going to take wedding photos this weekend. Don’t forget, after taking the wedding photos, we will go house hunting together.”
“Got it.”
After Ding Minghui left, the smile on Liu Hui’s face completely disappeared. She took her phone and looked through the photos on it. It was the scene when Fang Tong talked with Ding Minghui this morning, and there was also a photo of Fang Tong slapping Ding Minghui.
This was sent to her by her friend. Although she didn’t know what they talked about, it was just those things. She knew that Ding Minghui liked Fang Tong, but since she could make Ding Minghui leave Fang Tong and be with her now, then in the future, Ding Minghui would not leave her to hook up with other women.
Liu Hui’s eyes fell on Fang Tong’s face, and a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.
Ding Minghui walked out of the office and returned to his seat. He ignored the eyes that were secretly looking at him along the way. He knew that these people were saying behind his back that he was hanging out with a rich woman, that Liu Hui had unspoken rules with him, and that he was a gigolo. But so what? After working for a few months, he had already figured it out. A poor boy like him who came from a small mountain village wanting to gain a foothold in the capital without a backer was difficult, not to mention climbing up and buying a house in the capital. Since there was a shortcut now, how did the process matter?
He knew that he was sorry for Fang Tong, but he would make it up to her in the future. Now she had not yet recognized the cruelty of reality. When she experienced it, she would understand his painstaking efforts today.
But later, Ding Minghui realized what he had lost by his choice today.
Shen Qinglan and Fu Hengyi received a large number of blessings as soon as they arrived at the military region. Last night, when Mu Liancheng and the others just came back, Meng Liang couldn’t wait to tell the news that Fu Hengyi had successfully proposed to his wife.
“Sister, congratulations.” When Sister Zhang saw Shen Qinglan, she smiled. Although she had known that they were married for a long time, it was still a big happy event. “Come to my house for dinner tonight. I will cook delicious food for you to celebrate.”
Shen Qinglan’s eyes were full of smiles. She was in a very good mood. Even the shadow of Alan’s coming was thrown behind her. “Sister-in-law, no need. Your family will come to our house for dinner tonight. Fu Hengyi will cook for you personally.”
Knowing that her cooking skills were not good, Shen Qinglan directly handed the task of cooking to Fu Hengyi. After living here for a while, Sister Zhang also knew that she could not cook.
Fu Hengyi looked at Shen Qinglan with a doting face, “Yes, sister-in-law, come to my house for dinner tonight.”
“Okay, sister-in-law will not be polite to you. It’s agreed to come to your house for dinner tonight. Then I won’t go shopping today. I’ll call Lao Zhang later.” Sister Zhang agreed readily.
Shen Qinglan smiled and nodded.
After cleaning the house, Shen Qinglan and Fu Hengyi drove to a vegetable market a little further away. There were more varieties of vegetables here. This was Shen Qinglan’s first time going to the vegetable market since she was a child, and she was with Fu Hengyi.
Now was not the time to buy vegetables, and there were not many people in the vegetable market. Shen Qinglan looked at the vendors and the dazzling array of vegetables and didn’t know where to start.
Fu Hengyi smiled slightly and held her hand. “Have you never been here before?”
Shen Qinglan nodded unnaturally. She didn’t have this opportunity when she was in the Devil’s Base. Later, when she returned to the Shen family, there was someone at home to cook, so she didn’t need to do all this. Even the few times she went out to buy vegetables, she went to the supermarket.
“The vegetables in the supermarket are not as cheap as here. Many of the vegetables here are directly supplied to the military area. They are grown by nearby farmers in their own homes. The taste is better than those bought in the supermarket.”
While talking to Shen Qinglan, Fu Hengyi walked to the seafood stall, picked a few types of seafood, and then bought a few vegetables.
Shen Qinglan followed Fu Hengyi and couldn’t help but smile when she saw him skilfully picking and bargaining with the vendors.
“I didn’t expect you to have such a side.” Shen Qinglan said softly when he walked out of the vegetable market.
Fu Hengyi glanced sideways, “Oh? Which side?”
“So…”, Shen Qinglan thought of the adjective, “down-to-earth.”
Fu Hengyi smiled, looking at her tilting her head to look at him, and couldn’t help but lower his head and kissed her lips gently.
Not only the Zhang family came to eat in the evening, but also Gu Yang and Gu Kai.
Gu Yang heard from others that Fu Hengyi was back, and he came back with his fiancée, so he took advantage of the break in training to bring Gu Kai here.
