Thank you for Waiting, Mister Tang!-Chapter 43
Encountered a Bad Person (3)
After a while, she submerged her body in the warm water and observed the foamy bubbles – lost in thought.
Being sold to Tang Yu had gone completely different than what she had imagined. She thought it would be absolutely humiliating, but… unexpectedly, he wasn’t that difficult to be with (her experience was completely different from other Sheng Yuan female employees because this treatment was dependent on the face and body). He was even caring.
Pei Qiqi used her hand to splash water on her face to wake herself up.
She ended up getting sick and sneezed again and again. Her face was pale white but her nose was red.
By the time she had come out, there were four dishes and one soup on the dining table. They were all hearty dishes.
Tang Yu sat by the table with a magazine in hand. After looking at her for a second, he closed it and said gently, “I remember your last class ended at 3:00 pm. Why did you come back so late?”
“I also remember you saying you would only come Friday or Saturday, so why do I see you here everyday…” This was what Pei Qiqi wanted to say but didn’t dare to say.
She carefully walked over and her eyes were damp. Very carefully, she said, “I started working!”
“Working?” Tang Yu picked up the chopsticks and chatted with her casually.
He no longer acted as distant towards her and Pei Qiqi was not as nervous anymore. She nodded, “Yes.”
Tang Yu’s expression froze for a second, “I will give you $100,000 a month as pocket money.”
His intention was clear. He didn’t want her to work outside like that… Pei Qiqi bit her lips and held onto her chopsticks. She didn’t eat anything more but her voice got lower, “I want to work…”
She didn’t say anything more. He understood…
Tang Yu looked very at ease and very mindfully chatted with his little lover about dreams, “You don’t want to be with me your whole life?”
Pei Qiqi stared at him and didn’t speak.
Even without answering, everyone knew she wouldn’t stay with him forever.
Ignoring the fact that he will one day marry, even her herself will one day age and lose her beauty… when he reaches middle age and enter the most attractive stage in a man’s life, she would no longer be young. Someone will replace her.
“If you want to go, then go. However, I will still give you a card… I will also make sure your work will be more pleasant.” He made such a statement.
Pei Qiqi’s eyes felt hot and her throat felt stuffed… There was an indescribable emotion.
Though to him, this was an easy feat, but to her, this was rare warmth in this world.
“Mr. Tang…” She croaked out. It wasn’t his wealth, it was the fact that he was really treating her nicely.
Tang Yu put down the chopsticks in his hand. His lean and pretty fingers touched her forehead as his gentle and graceful voice said, “I can’t say my intention with you is entirely pure, but I… can we just live together for a while? Is that alright?”
Pei Qiqi stared at him.
Tang Yu had his reasons. He’s never touched any woman before – Pei Qiqi was his first. With his identity, he’s never considered marrying her. Perhaps, in the beginning, he didn’t take her seriously or treat her seriously, but now, he was feeling empathy towards her…
This was all he could give her.
In the end, he grinned, “You can call me Tang Yu in the future.”
Pei Qiqi nodded and lowered her head to eat. Because of her cold, she didn’t have much of an appetite and Tang Yu didn’t force her. He just asked her to go to sleep early.
Pei Qiqi went to lie down after having some cold medicine. Lying under the blanket, she stared at the lit light outside…
Was he not going to leave?
