章 22: You Should Act in a Stage Play
編集者: Dragon Boat Translation
Qian Duoduo raised her hand to avoid it.
Eric was a little anxious when he saw this.
"Duoduo, are you still angry at me? Can't you forgive me? How about this? As long as you are willing to forgive me, you can hit me and scold me. As long as it can appease you, I can accept whatever you do to me!"
"Maybe you should act in a stage play."
After Eric's heartfelt repentance, he only got this sentence from Qian Duoduo.
"Eric, flowery words can deceive people for a while, but they can't deceive people forever. I won't forgive you because I'm not a fool."
Eric was indignant and secretly gritted his teeth. He didn't expect this woman to be so difficult to talk to.
On the surface, he still looked like he was thinking about Qian Duoduo.
"No matter what, your family has already held a banquet. You're considered married. If the groom doesn't appear, you'll become a joke."
"You don't have to worry about whether I'll become a joke. As for the groom..." She glanced at Eric and continued, "The groom had appeared a long time ago. He appeared at the banquet with me. My parents, family, and friends witnessed our wedding. Although he's poor, he has a job. He's honest and doesn't use flowery words. He doesn't live off a woman!"
"Duoduo, you're lying to me on purpose to make me angry, right?"
Eric didn't believe it at all. In his opinion, this was a story made up by Qian Duoduo.
"There's no need for me to lie to you. Our wedding was witnessed by all our relatives and friends. If you don't believe me, you can ask around."
Eric began to panic.
"That person was hired by you to replace me, right? As long as I come, that person has to get lost, right?"
"Heh, you think too highly of yourself, Eric. I'm serious about marrying him. I'm his wife now, and I have nothing to do with you anymore."
"Do you know what you are saying? Do you know that man? Become his wife? Is he as good to you as I am? Have you forgotten how considerate I have been to you for the past three years?"
The only thing she couldn't deny about Eric was that he had been considerate to her for the past three years.
He could prepare hot milk tea for her on a cold day. When her period came, he would deliver brown sugar ginger tea on time and prepare sanitary pads for her.
She was a person who was easily moved by small details.
If not for this, she would not have been deceived by him for three years.
But now, she had come to her senses.
The milk tea was bought with her money, so were the sanitary pads. Even the brown sugar ginger tea was bought with her money.
The warmth she thought Eric had given her was actually given by herself.
"Feelings can be cultivated slowly. Since we're already married, we'll naturally live well in the future. He's indeed not like you. He's not like you who's full of lies. He's not like you who wants to swindle money from me. Your lies have destroyed the last trace of feelings between us."
Eric's expression changed and he suddenly burst into tears.
"Duoduo, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong, but I did it because I love you. I never thought of cheating you of your money. I just wanted to leave a sense of security between us."
Qian Duoduo looked at Eric and took a deep breath to suppress the complicated emotions in her heart.
After all, they had been together for three years, and their relationship for the past three years was not fake.
However, it was precisely because that relationship was not fake that Eric's current appearance made her heart ache.
She was very glad that she had encountered Chen Shu at the station. If it wasn't for Chen Shu that could solve the problem she faced at that time and make her completely give up on Eric, she might still be deceived by Eric's flowery words.
"The person you should be begging for isn't me, but the rich woman you've recently hooked up with. Only she can give you what you want. As for me, forgive me for being powerless."
A hint of fear flashed across Eric's face, and he hurriedly said, "What rich woman? You've really misunderstood me, Duoduo. I have nothing to do with her. Am I really a man who only knows how to live off a woman in your heart?"
"Yes, in my heart, you're just a freeloader!"
Qian Duoduo was very serious.
Eric was probably provoked by her words. He threw away the flatbread in his hand and said angrily, "Qian Duoduo, do you still have a conscience? When we first got together, we agreed to work hard for the future together and spend the money we earned together. Didn't I just spend the money we earned together? How did it become a meal for you!"
