Chapter 1944: Marriage (2)

She had overestimated her father’s ability to please women, especially her mother, Mei Xiaoyue!

Taking a deep breath, Qin Su said helplessly, “Father, to be honest, you really don’t care about Mother. I don’t know how Mother put up with you all these years. Mother has always been a very delicate person. You, actually, can’t blame her for constantly harping about you.”

Qin Yi was also stunned when he heard Qin Su. After some thought, he asked, “Do I really treat your Mother that poorly?”

With this question, it seemed that he was already giving in. Qin Su naturally would not stop there and replied, “Father, it’s not that you treat Mother poorly. It’s just that you’re not very intentional when it comes to Mother and you don’t really care about her. I know you’ve never wronged my mother, but I think what Mother wants more is your concern and affection. If you share some of your passion for work with my mother, I think maybe she will…”

Qin Su stopped short at this moment.

Qin Yi was silent for a long time before he replied, “Your mother and I are an old married couple, what’s the point of caring about affection? Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps. It’s not like we’re you young people, right?”

“Father, relationships don’t care about age. Look at the many middle-aged and elderly people holding hands to watch the sunrise and sunset, going on trips together.”

“But your father is a soldier. He has to maintain his image at all times. How can he…”

“You’re just thinking too much. I think Zhou Zimo’s parents have a very good relationship with each other. Anyway, I’ve already brought this up to you. You, think about it yourself. It’s already so late. Go back and rest early. I’ll send you the things later.”

“Oh, I got it. You should rest early too.”

Qin Yi, who was on the other end of the line, answered rather sullenly before hanging up the phone.

This night seemed to be destined to be a sleepless night, especially on such a cold and bleak night.

Fujiwara had just felt his heart calm down on the sofa when he suddenly heard a cold swish sound. He suddenly felt even colder. His entire body shrunk tightly as he could not help but open his eyes.

He suddenly heard the clear sound of water dripping, followed by a rustling sound. He turned around and looked in the direction of the dim light in the study. Only then did he realize that the curtain next to the window was swaying

It was raining outside…

It was cold, a winter rain that had been brewing for a long time…

It was very cold, just like his heart. It was so cold that he could feel a bone-piercing pain even when he breathed.

He quietly looked at the window for a long time before he got up and walked over.

The floor in front of the window was already a little wet. He could feel a wave of wetness spreading as he walked closer. He coughed a few times and reached out to pull the fluttering curtains aside to open the half-open window.

“Master, can’t sleep?”

There was a light knock on the door behind him, followed by Matsuda’s voice.

Fujiwara subconsciously turned his head and saw Matsuda standing at the door.


“Come in.”

Fujiwara said these words and closed the window. He closed the curtains and went back inside.

“Why are you still up so late?” Fujiwara asked. He took a sip of the tea beside him and realized that the tea in the cup was already cold.

Matsuda quickly boiled water for him.

“It’s raining. I got up to check. I saw that the light in Master’s study was still on, so I came over to take a look. Drink some hot water. Don’t drink the tea, in case you can’t sleep.”

Matsuda poured a cup of hot water for Fujiwara as he advised him.

Fujiwara lowered his eyes and took the cup. Holding the cup in his hand, the hot temperature made him feel much warmer.

“Matsuda-kun, you’ve been with me in City Z for quite a long time. Now that the company’s matters have gradually stabilized, have you thought about returning to Japan?” Fujiwara asked as he tilted his body and looked at Matsuda indifferently.

“Matsuda will go wherever Master is. Master doesn’t like returning to Japan, so don’t force yourself,” Matsuda replied.

Fujiwara gave him a sidelong glance and laughed in a deep voice. “Matsuda-kun, you’re not telling the truth. Your home is in Tokyo, so you should go back.”

When Fujiwara said this, he sighed softly to himself. “I probably shouldn’t persist like this, to the point of having a large group of people accompany me.”

“Master… Matsuda is willing to serve Master forever. Master, please believe in my sincerity!”

As Matsuda spoke, he hurriedly bowed his head.

However, Fujiwara raised his hand slightly to stop him, “Sit down, there’s no need to be so polite. I’m just stating my point of view. I’ve been thinking about it for quite some time now. In the evening, Mother called me. She mentioned some things to me and made an agreement with me.”

“As you know, I’ve always respected Mother. She was originally someone who had left the mortal world to cultivate in seclusion. This is the first time in so many years that she’s asked me to do this. I should take it to heart.”

As Fujiwara spoke, his eyes dimmed. They were as silent as ashes.

“Some people are destined to be alone. I should have seen through it.”

“Master, I don’t blame you. Since it’s fated… perhaps it’s because you and Miss Dongfang are destined to be separated. I can see that Mr. Qi Lei loves Miss Dongfang very much. Moreover, Miss Dongfang cares about Mr. Qi Lei very much. They were able to pass this matter smoothly and didn’t have the same misunderstanding as others. Isn’t that enough to explain the problem?”

Matsuda only dared to say these words when he heard Fujiwara’s words.

Fujiwara laughed bitterly when he heard this. He said bitterly, “You said the same thing as Mother, she said this too.”

“Master, the fate between you and Miss Dongfang is shallow, let go… You can still be friends. Isn’t Master Lan Xiu like this too? Moreover, Miss Dongfang’s matter has already been settled. Even if you give up everything, she will never let go of the Dongfang family to be with you. There are many difficulties in front of you that you cannot return to.”

As Matsuda spoke, he sighed helplessly in his heart.

Actually, Fujiwara understood this in his heart. However, he was really unwilling to give up just like that. As long as he thought about how she would have nothing to do with him in the future, he felt a suffocating pain in his heart. It was as if his entire body had been hollowed out.

Fujiwara lowered his gaze and silently clenched the warm cup in his hand.

“Even we can’t go back to how we were, I should at least leave something behind. I owe her too much, so I should at least return something to her.”

They could not go back in time anymore.

He had always understood this in his heart, but…

Once something was missed, there would be no more chances. One wrong step, one wrong step…

How deep and painful was this realization?
