The daily life of a crazy female supporting character trying to redeem herself.
Chapter 44 Reconciliation
"Brother Mu." Su Heng stepped forward and called out to Liang Mu. He hesitated, wondering how to get him and Liang Qing to talk alone. Liang Mu, understanding his situation, moved away, leaving behind the words, "You two talk."
"I've taken care of things here, please follow me." Su Heng led Liang Qing to the 23rd floor in the elevator.
The 23rd floor is a famous French restaurant. When I walked in, there was only a few waiters and no one else. It must have been booked by Su Heng.
The indoor air conditioning was set a bit low, which didn't affect Su Heng much, who was wearing a suit, but it was a bit cold for Liang Qing, who was wearing a tuxedo. The waiter led the two into the room and sat them down, and then handed a blanket to Liang Qing to cover her legs.
"Thank you." Liang Xiang thanked the waiter. Su Heng looked at the blanket thoughtfully, then ordered a few dishes, and the waiter left.
"I originally wanted to book a private room, but you can't see such a beautiful moonlight from there." Su Heng looked at the night sky outside the floor-to-ceiling window. The bright moon hung high, and its light dispelled the surrounding haze, allowing only its beauty to be seen.
Beneath the moon, skyscrapers stand, their dappled lights reflecting the clinking of glasses and the lively atmosphere.
"It is indeed beautiful." Liang Qing looked up at the moon and agreed.
At this point, the waiter served the first dish: pan-fried sole fillet and white wine.
Although Liang Qing had just eaten a cake to fill her stomach, the French meal was small, so Liang Qing followed Su Heng and ate a few bites.
Su Heng took a sip of wine and finally got to the point: "Senior, actually I came to apologize to you. I'm sorry."
Su Heng was a little nervous when he said his first sentence, but perhaps it was because he had started speaking that he was able to speak more easily. He continued, "I'm sorry, senior. I've been causing you trouble all this time. I really regret what I said and what I did. I hope you can forgive me."
After talking with her older sister last time, Su Heng reflected on her actions again.
He re-examined his attitude towards art and his feelings for Liang Qing.
He thought that he did like Liang Qing, whether it was based on admiration for her painting skills or romantic attraction, but he couldn't say how deep that attraction was.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have harbored a desire for revenge after being rejected and humiliated by Liang Qing.
In his painting, he deliberately blamed Liang Qing for his stagnation.
Rather than saying he was devastated by Liang Qing's humiliation, it's more accurate to say he used this opportunity to cover up his incompetence.
Because he believed he could not surpass Liang Qing, he used the incident of being teased and humiliated by Liang Qing as a convenient way to escape his own weakness.
In matters of the heart, although Liang Qing rejected him and said some rather hurtful things, feelings are something that cannot be forced. After resolving his inner conflict regarding painting, he belatedly realized this.
He was infatuated with Liang Qing, but Liang Qing didn't like him and it was her freedom to reject him. However, he became angry and embarrassed after being rejected and went around making things difficult for her, which was his fault.
As a man, this behavior was extremely ungentlemanly, and he felt deeply ashamed whenever he thought about what he had done.
As Liang Qing watched his face slowly turn red with shame, she couldn't help but sigh, "You've changed a lot."
Su Heng blushed and continued, "I used to think that admitting mistakes was a shameful thing, but now I realize that daring to do something but not daring to admit it is the shameful thing."
“Senior, I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have talked nonsense and bullied you after you rejected me. Please forgive my petty behavior. My family has withdrawn from putting pressure on your family, and our two families have resumed negotiations on cooperation.” He paused for a moment. “As for me, whatever you want me to do, as long as it is within my power, I will do it, as long as you can forgive me.”
Upon hearing this, Liang Qing raised an eyebrow and looked at him with a smile: "You really can do everything?"
Looking at her smiling face, Su Heng felt her already flushed face burn even hotter. This seemed to be the first time Liang Qing had smiled at her like this, instead of that polite, distant, insincere smile.
For a moment, he stopped worrying about what Liang Qing had asked him to do and stared blankly at her smiling face, stammering, "Of...of course."
Looking at his nervous appearance, Liang Qing finally understood where the strange feeling about Su Heng today came from. It was like a child wearing an adult's clothes, so inappropriate.
It seems that Su Heng tried very hard to play the role of a gentleman today in order to apologize to her, but he is ultimately just a greenhorn. He neither knew to take off his suit jacket to put on a lady to keep her warm, nor did he know that he could not drink alcohol if he was going to take her home that night.
Liang Qing teased him on purpose: "Don't be scared, I won't make you take off your clothes and run around the school."
Su Heng wasn't annoyed at all; on the contrary, she relaxed a lot because of her amusing remark. "Senior, don't tease me."
"Did you sign up for this painting competition?" Liang Qing suddenly asked.
"I've submitted it." Su Heng lowered his head awkwardly.
"That's enough. You've done what I asked you to do."
Upon hearing this, Su Heng looked up again, staring at her with an incredulous gaze. "Senior, aren't you angry with me?"
"I've never blamed you, but I was wrong too." Liang Qing sighed, as if recalling something.
For some reason, Su Heng instinctively didn't want Liang Qing to be down because of what happened before, so he made a joke to divert her attention: "Senior, the way you say it makes me feel even more apologetic."
Liang Qing was indeed amused by him.
And so, an apology that Su Hengli had rehearsed countless possible endings for ended up in a way that didn't feel like an apology at all.
After finishing his meal, Su Heng got off the elevator intending to take Liang Qing home, but suddenly remembered that he had been drinking and couldn't drive. He stood helplessly at the elevator door.
He gave Liang Qing a dry smile: "We'll have to call a designated driver."
Liang Qing didn't want to trouble him: "I can just take a taxi back."
Su Heng was adamant on this point: "No, I brought you out here, so I must make sure you get home safely."
So Su Heng and Liang Qing sat together in the back seat, and the designated driver took them to the entrance of the residential area, getting out of the car first to open the door for her to get out.
"I have arrived."
Su Heng placed his hand on the top of the car door and nodded. "Okay, then I'll go back too."
Just as he turned to get into the car, Liang Qing called out to Su Heng, "Su Heng."
Su Heng immediately turned around. "What's wrong?"
Liang Qing looked earnestly into his eyes, and under his questioning gaze, solemnly said, "I'm sorry, and thank you."
Before Su Heng could react, she turned and went into the residential area.
Su Heng was left standing there for a while, processing what she meant, before he finally understood.
Under the dim streetlights, the car's reflection made his reflection stand out even more. His hair fluttered slightly in the breeze, but his heart pounded like never before.
"Sir, a car is coming in ahead."
Su Heng was brought back to his senses by the driver's words, got into the car, and said, "Oh, okay, let's go."
Even after getting into the car, he still seemed absent-minded, and couldn't help but put his hand on his chest, feeling his chaotic heartbeat and feeling very flustered.
What's going on? Didn't he decide to stop talking about romance with Liang Qing? Why is his heart beating so fast?
Because he was so engrossed in his own world, he didn't notice a sports car passing by his car.
They didn't realize that the person in the sports car was Yan Su.
