Time Travel: The Queen's Coronation

Our efforts paid off. Yuanyuan's first project was a success, and the company successfully turned a profit. Xiao Yuan said he would come to Yanjing to celebrate with us on New Year's Day. I told Rong Zixuan the news. He was worried about finding an opportunity to meet me, but he readily agreed. On New Year's Eve, Xiao Yuan booked a private room at a large hotel in the city center to celebrate the success of our first project. We arrived as scheduled. However, we entered one after the other, and I deliberately kept my distance and did not make any physical contact with Rong Zixuan. Xiao Yuan noticed something was wrong and broke the silence.

"Come on, come on, let's toast to the huge success of our first project!"

We raised our glasses and clinked them together. Rong Zixuan wanted to clink glasses with me alone, but I didn't give him the chance, so he could only take it back awkwardly.

"Come on, come on, eat some food!"

The whole room then became eerily quiet, and Xiao Yuan felt a little embarrassed.

"Did you have a fight?" Xiao Yuan asked in a low voice.

"No, we broke up," I said decisively and firmly.

Xiao Yuan showed a shocked expression, "What?"

"No, no, we just had a quarrel and she was angry," Rong Zixuan tried to make amends.

"We have broken up, don't have any illusions anymore"

"May I know the reason?"

"He cheated!"

Xiao Yuan was very surprised, because we were fine in Shenzhou, and he had witnessed our sweet period. "Could it be a misunderstanding?"

"As expected, you men always use misunderstanding as an excuse for things like this!"

"Zixuan, how could you do such a thing!" Xiao Yuan was in trouble and could only turn the topic to Rong Zixuan.

"I do not have it!"

"Hmph! Wiping sweat, feeding, and holding hands are all no big deal!" I sneered and turned my face away.

"You're really good at it!"

"I told you it was a misunderstanding. I was just angry! I was mad at you!"

"What did Wei Qing do to make you angry?"

"Shen Junhui and Li Zhanwen are always looking for her"

"What to say to her?"

“They approached her on purpose.”

"That's Shen Junhui and the others' problem, not Wei Qing's. Why are you angry with Wei Qing?"

This sentence hit the point, but Rong Zixuan was still struggling, "I just want her to focus more on me, and not always think about algorithms, projects, and novels."

"No, you have a problem with Wei Qing concentrating on her career? And as far as I know, Shen Junhui often approaches Wei Qing in the name of questions, but Wei Qing only teaches him how to do them. He also often complains to me about why girls like Wei Qing are so hard to pursue. Li Zhanwen and I also have some connections with his brother Li Congwen. His brother also told me that Li Zhanwen likes a girl very much, but unfortunately that girl has a boyfriend, so he has no chance. So Wei Qing never gave them a chance. You were angry with Wei Qing, but you were angry with Wei Qing, not them. Instead, you assisted them and gave them a chance!"

"Hey, this, this, Aqing, I really didn't mean it. I really am a pig, a stupid pig. Can you forgive me?" He stood up and walked to my side and knelt beside me.

"No, get up!" I said embarrassedly.

"If you don't forgive me, I won't get up!"

"Then keep kneeling. I hate moral blackmail the most!"

"I was really wrong, please forgive me!" he said, shaking my hand.

"I can see that, Wei Qing, you still like Rong Zixuan. It's not easy to meet someone you like and who also likes you. If it's not a big deal, then forgive him if you can."

"Xiao Yuan, you're talking without any hesitation! And you're looking at the problem from a male perspective, so of course you'll help him!"

"Well, I'm a man, but I'm not looking at this from his perspective. I'm looking at it from your perspective. You still love him in your heart, don't you? Otherwise, it's been so long, and you said you broke up, but why are you still so angry when this matter is brought up? To put it bluntly, you care! You still care about Zixuan, you still care about this relationship!"

"So what? Feelings are not like garbage that can be thrown away. They need to be digested."

"But now Zixuan has admitted his mistake, and you still have feelings for him, so why not step down from this path? It's not easy for two people in love to be together."

I could sense a story in Xiao Yuan's words. "Oh wow, you have a story?"

"Yeah, I was like that too. I had no boundaries with other women. My first love and I were together for eight years. She always argued with me and told me to pay attention to boundaries, but I really enjoyed the ambiguous feeling with other women. In the end, she resolutely left. Later, she got married and had children. When we met again, my heart still couldn't calm down. I could see love in her eyes, but it was impossible for us to be together!"

"No, your story should be a warning to Rong Zixuan! That girl got married and had children after leaving you. Even if she still loves you, so what? Missed it, missed it, and you can't guarantee that she isn't happy now!"

"Well...but if two people in love can take a step back from each other, maybe there won't be any regrets. Isn't that what you are doing now?"

"But Rong Zixuan has already mentally cheated on me, and I can't tolerate it!"

"I didn't, I was just angry! I explained it to Zhu Yinyin later!"

"I won't listen! This relationship is over anyway! No need to talk about it anymore!"

Seeing how determined I was, Rong Zixuan hugged my legs and said, "You can't abandon me! You are the only relative I have in this world."

"Bullshit! Aren't they your uncle, aunt, and cousin?"

"They are relatives, not family members. You are my wife, so you are my family member."

"Stop trying to change the subject. You have to pay for what you did anyway! The price is that you have lost me!" I said each word in a sonorous and powerful voice.

"No! I don't accept it!" Rong Zixuan roared.

"You have to accept it whether you like or not. This is reality. I'm not your parents. No one will spoil you unconditionally!"

"Ah! I'm so pitiful! My parents are dead, and my wife doesn't want me anymore," Rong Zixuan played the emotional card. Using the word "parents" was a bit cruel to him. He wailed on the ground, but I caught him stealing a glance at me. I exchanged a fierce look with him, and he knew the whole thing was a rip-off. He simply stood up and guzzled the wine, but I didn't try to stop him. I just watched and ate in silence.

"I'm done eating, so I'm leaving now. Take your time!" I stood up and was about to leave, but Xiao Yuan held me back. "Hey, hey, hey, if you just leave like this, what will happen to him?"

"You decide for yourself!"

"No, you are his girlfriend or fiancée, if you don't take care of him, who will?"

"We've already broken up. I'll announce the end of the engagement when I get home, so there's no relationship between us. Why should I care about him?"

"Wei Qing, don't be so stubborn. Ask yourself, are you really willing to give up this relationship? He made mistakes, but which couple is without flaws? Perfect love doesn't exist. It's all about mutual understanding and tolerance. I can understand his feelings. Men who are better than him are always around his girlfriend, and he feels powerless because he can't drive them away. He can only attract his girlfriend's attention through other means. I have done this kind of thing before, and she forgave me at that time. And I can tell you from a male perspective that men are indeed tempted by beauty. It is a genetic disturbance that makes them lose control when they see a beautiful woman. You can't blame him. It is innate to the male group. But it's great that he was able to stop and turn back. It shows that his love for you is deep, deep enough to overcome his male instincts. So you can try to forgive him once. If you still can't accept it, it's not too late to break up later. I don't want to see you two lovers become a couple of enemies, nor do I want you two lovers to end up hurting each other."

"You're just talking nonsense, talking about genes and instincts! Now they're even using science to justify him, how rare! You men are all birds of a feather, I won't listen!"

"Then think carefully about what the first reaction of the men around you is to beautiful women? Do they look at them a little longer, or even become fascinated by them?"

I thought about it carefully for a moment, and it seemed that it was just as Xiao Yuan said. When men see a beautiful woman, they can't help but take a second look. Even a steady man like Li Zhanwen would be attracted and take a second look at a beautiful model.

"Actually, this is also the instinct of male animals. Look at the males in the animal world. They will seek mates! Why do they seek mates? Because they want to pass on their genes and continue the species. If given a choice, males will always choose the more attractive opposite sex. Look at the calico cat, the beauty of the cat world, it is very popular!"

I was stunned by Xiao Yuan's series of male theories, and my heart was a little shaken. I said confusedly, "But, how can I take care of him when he is so big?"

"It's late now, and it's snowing heavily outside. It's neither safe nor convenient for you to take a taxi back. So, I'll get you a room, and you can stay here tonight!"

"Two rooms!"

"Two rooms? How are you going to take care of him?"

"Why don't you just ask someone to carry him to his room? He's already grown up and doesn't he know how to take care of himself?"

"Being drunk is very dangerous. If he vomits and his trachea gets stuck and he suffocates to death, you won't regret it for the rest of your life!"

"It's still two rooms. You don't need that little money. At worst, I can take care of him first and then go back to my own room," I said proudly.

"I'll get you a suite, that'll kill two birds with one stone."

"No, just two!"

"Stop it, Wei Qing, let's just stay in the suite!" Xiao Yuan said, pretending to answer the phone and walked out of the private room. He only booked a suite, and I didn't want to spend money, so I had no choice but to let myself and Rong Zixuan stay in the same suite. To be honest, I still love Rong Zixuan in my heart, but what he did was really hurtful!

Looking at Rong Zixuan lying on the bed like a dead pig, I had evil thoughts in my mind. I struggled for a long time, but finally I took action! I rode on him and slapped him twice! The force is mutual, and my palm hurts! But under such a heavy slap, he just turned his head and didn't wake up. Later I pinched him again, venting my anger while pinching, "I'll let you cheat! I'll let you cheat! I'll let you cheat!" Rong Zixuan might have been awakened by the pain, and shouted, "Ah! It hurts!" Then he slowly opened his eyes. I quickly got up from him, but he pulled me down and hugged me. I wanted to break free, but he was too strong and I couldn't.

"Ah Qing, if beating me can make you forgive me, then go ahead and beat me."

"Then you have to let me go first, then I can hit you." Then he let go, got up from the bed tremblingly, knelt in front of me, lowered his head and said, "Hit me!"

"Lift your head up," he did, and I slapped him twice, knocking him down. But he got up again.

"Okay, go to sleep, I won't disturb you anymore." I turned around to go into another room, but he hugged me from behind.

"Aqing, I was really wrong. I can't live without you. You can hit me and scold me, but you can't ignore me, let alone abandon me! I can't live without you! The days without you are very painful, and I even want to kill myself. Why should I hurt you?" Then he hugged me tighter, and I couldn't break free at all.

"Let go first, we'll talk about it tomorrow if there's anything." He talked too much, and the smell of alcohol coming out of his mouth made me dizzy.

He didn't respond, but kissed my cheek, then my neck, and his hands were even more restless!

"Rong Zixuan, let go!" I tried to pry his fingers apart, but the strength of women could never match that of men.

He still didn't respond, and his movements became more and more violent. He dragged me to the bed, pushed me down, pressed me under him, and grabbed my hands...

The next day, I woke up and saw the dead pig next to me. I was so angry that I hit him with a pillow to wake him up!

"Ah, Aqing, just let me sleep a little longer, just a little longer!"

"Look at what you have done!" I still did not stop the attack in my hand, and kicked him off the bed with my legs. He slowly woke up under my continuous attack, and smiled at me with a mean smile, "This is not the first time, why are you still shy?"

I went up and slapped him, "But you forced me this time!"

"When I let go of your hand later, didn't you take the initiative?"

I slapped him again, and this time he was stunned. He touched his face and laughed, "Ah Qing, this is domestic violence!"

I pushed him off the bed, but he came up and hugged me directly, "As long as you are happy and willing to forgive me, you can hit me any way you want!"

"Ah, it stinks, go take a shower quickly!" I broke free from his arms.

"You forgive me, then?"

"Alright, let's put this behind us, or I'll be in big trouble!"

"Why are you the one who suffered a loss? I was very tired last night!" He said with a nasty smile.

I kicked him off the bed again, and he sat on the floor and laughed, "So we're reconciled, right?"

"If it happens again, I will never forgive you!" I pointed at him and warned him seriously.

"There won't be a next time, I swear!" He said, raising his hand and making an swearing gesture.

"Go take a shower quickly, you stink and pollute the air here," I said with disgust.

"You didn't mind that I smelled bad when you hugged me and kissed me last night. Why do you mind that now? You bad woman! You don't recognize me once you put on your pants!" He complained with pretended grievance.

I threw a pillow at him, and he dodged it. I yelled, "Go now!"

He stood up and saluted, "Yes, sir!
