Love You Till the End-Chapter 1018 - 1017: Where Will I Be Three Years From Now...
"Do you think there will ever be a day when the hardships I’ve endured over these years will come to an end?" Perhaps due to the weather and environment, she found herself pondering the future today.
Will Shi Aoju exist in her future life?
She didn’t dare to say it, nor did she dare to think it.
Occasional chats during silent nights were her only luxury, and these moments were when she felt closest to Shi Aoju, with no one else around, only them.
Actually, she always greedily thought, how wonderful it would be if life were always like this.
Yet, books say: "Beautiful dreams are fragile, sorrows are the norm in life."
She remembered one romance novel writing: Sometimes liking someone impossible is like Sisyphus pushing a stone; the person you like is a peak you can never reach, but you have no choice but to climb the mountain.
Shi Aoju patted her head reassuringly and said, "It will happen eventually."
Kind-hearted people in this world will always receive God’s favor because they are angels.
"Today, everyone at home is saying your mother is coming back." She suddenly recalled the usual reserved housekeeper, amazed at how gossip could stir even a rigid person to chat with her like the founders of gossip.
"It must be your housekeeper who spread the word," he chuckled.
"Yes, she said your mother is very strict with you." Su Jiuyi stomped her foot, driving away the mosquito that landed on her leg.
Shi Aoju responded indifferently, "To ensure I establish myself in the business world, my mother indeed invested a lot of effort; her strictness is to make me better."
Su Jiuyi nodded, saying nothing.
Suddenly remembering something, she spoke again, "The housekeeper has worked at the Shi Family for a long time, hasn’t she?"
"About four or five years," he replied.
Hearing this, Su Jiuyi’s eyes suddenly lit up, "After four or five years, she became the housekeeper. So in the future, will you entrust me with important tasks at the Shi Family, and after ten or eight years, when the old witch... oh no, I mean when the housekeeper retires, I’ll take her place!?"
Su Jiuyi, saying this, surely didn’t realize her eyes seemed to have a dollar sign in them, looking quite money-focused.
"Can’t you aim a little higher," Shi Aoju scoffed.
"No, I can’t." She pouted, "Then tell me what else I can do."
Shi Aoju was silent for a few seconds, then slowly said, "Did you forget about the dessert shop you mentioned before?"
Su Jiuyi rested her chin on her hands, her dazed gaze indicating her thoughts had traveled to a distant future.
But if she pursued her dreams, she’d grow further away from him.
Yet, staying at the Shi Family wouldn’t bring them any closer; he would eventually marry and have children.
Though she didn’t know what his future partner would be like, whether their union would be a sincere love or merely for business interests like Su Manning and Song Zhike, she just knew she couldn’t calmly face this terrifying fact.
"Where will I be three years from now..." she murmured.
Life is always full of uncertainties, stepping steadily towards us with its rushed footsteps, leaving unforeseen shadows in our hearts.
Su Jiuyi grew weary, unconsciously yawning, and Shi Aoju glanced at her, saying, "Go back to sleep."
"No matter where you are three years from now, don’t forget to keep your original self in your heart."
As Su Jiuyi left, she heard Shi Aoju say this.
