Curse Love Game

Xu Qiubai took a tissue from the side and motioned for her to wipe her eyes.

Then, instead of rushing to get straight to the point, he asked a less relevant question to lighten the mood.

"Why are you so afraid of me fighting?"

Liu Xinyi did not use the tissue, as if she felt that using it would be tantamount to admitting that she had cried.

Her eyes were moist, reflecting the light, crystal clear.

She relied on her control over her big eyes to hold back her tears.

"Fighting is not good..."

"Now that it's come to this, tell the truth."

There was no way Xu Qiubai would be evaded by this excuse. The last time she and Ruan Bo battled in front of her, she didn't react at all.

Liu Xinyi stopped talking.

Xu Qiubai stared at her slender and beautiful eyelashes for ten seconds and came to a guess.

Perhaps, she didn't put "don't fight" in the first sentence just because she thought of it.

But this matter is more important than the "thank you" at the end.

The "thank you" at the end was already meaningful enough to almost bridge all the grudges between him and her.

So what is the importance of stopping fighting?

I can't figure it out, I have no idea.

Xu Qiubai decided to induce him.

"You know, I'm also very stubborn. I won't just listen to someone. Besides, fighting is my way of solving problems. Even the gods can't change that."

Hearing this, Liu Xinyi suddenly looked up and looked into Xu Qiubai's eyes with an inexplicable sense of fear in her eyes.

"No... No, you must stay calm... Mom... can't bear this kind of blow again..."

This passage gave Xu Qiubai an idea.

Because Liu Xinyi emphasized the subjective feelings of "mother".

and so……

"Liu Xinyi, excuse me, what year did your father pass away?"

Liu Xinyi opened her lips slightly, as if she didn't expect Xu Qiubai to find the right direction so quickly.

She seemed unwilling to mention such sad past.

Xu Qiubai wasn't so excessive as to force such an answer out of her.

"Well, Xiao Liu, let's exchange our secrets. For example, you really want to know why I know so accurately that you have a fever.

I can tell you in advance that I have never told anyone these things in my life, and the sadness and pain for me are no less than for you. "

This last sentence was of course made up in order to make Liu Xinyi feel a sense of "similarity".

To this end, Xu Qiubai displayed all the acting skills he had acquired from [stage play performance].

Liu Xinyi believed it.

She fiddled with her clean and healthy nails and lowered her head.

"A month before I was born..."

hiss.

Is it a posthumous child? ?

In just a moment, Xu Qiubai subconsciously began to feel sorry for Liu Xunyue.

Being widowed a month before a child is born is the heaviest blow in any world.

"Wait, could it be that your father's cause of death was..."

Xu Qiubai subconsciously stretched out a hand.

Liu Xinyi agreed.

Definitely. He died accidentally in a fight.

Xu Qiubai suddenly realized that what he had said before was a bit too much.

Didn't ask any more questions.

Because Xu Qiubai could already imagine how anxious and sad Liu Xunyue was when she heard that he had been in the hospital after a fight.

Without even asking, Xu Qiubai knew that she and her father, whom she had never met, were at least 80% similar.

Liu Xinyi didn't stop, she took the initiative to tell him some things about his father.

Her father's surname was also Xu. He was also an orphan and was once a student at Tunghai University.

"Are you also in this major?" Xu Qiubai asked following this line of thought.

Liu Xinyi shook her head.

His father and Liu Xunyue were both students at the Agricultural College. They were a model couple during college. After graduation, they both found suitable jobs and quickly got married and had children.

Until the tragedy happened, everything was the happiest script of that era.

Xu Qiubai still didn't quite understand why Liu Xinyi chose the mechanical major which was not very suitable for girls. With her position as a member of the board of directors, shouldn't she just pick a major randomly?

Then Xu Qiubai thought of a particularly critical question.

Her father is an orphan, with no money or background, and he has only worked hard. So the only way Liu Xinyi can have the conditions she has now is by relying on Liu Xunyue's family background, right?

But as soon as Xu Qiubai mentioned her grandparents, Liu Xinyi showed considerable anger and resentment.

Grit your teeth and clench your fists.

It was the first time that Xu Qiubai saw Liu Xinyi with this expression.

This is very obvious "hate".

And it is definitely not formed overnight.

Seeing this, Xu Qiubai also understood that the contradiction was huge, so he turned to ask a question that sounded a little too straightforward:

"Then where did you and your daughter get your assets?"

Not only are there my own long-standing speculations and arguments, but also the opinions and evaluations given by Kang Qianhui.

Liu Xinyi is definitely not a young lady who has been pampered since childhood.

But it was some kind of "encounter".

Liu Xinyi refused to answer this question, and the attitude she showed was not even "I don't want to say" but "I can't say".

She would rather answer Xu Qiubai's other very informative question.

September 30th of every year is Valentine's Day at Tunghai University and the anniversary of Liu Xunyue and her late husband. The skirt was a token of love given to her by the man, and noodles with soybean paste was the man's favorite food.

Now Xu Qiubai finally understood why Liu Xunyue was so gentle to him that day.

She even told Xu Qiubai that Liu Xunyue had never gotten out of the shadow of that year over the years.

Even from January to September every year, her mental state began to become unstable.

Before September this year, Liu Xunyue promised Liu Xinyi that things would not happen like in previous years, and claimed that the skirt had been placed in a place where it would never appear.

Liu Xinyi believed it, and in September of this year, Liu Xunyue was indeed much more normal than in previous years.

Just when she thought her mother had completely walked out of the shadow and started to face a new life.

She happened upon that scene at Yueyi Flower Shop.

That's why I was so angry and broke down that day.

She understood that Liu Xunyue was lying to her and that her normality was only due to the appearance of Xu Qiubai, her "stand-in".

After hearing this, Xu Qiubai took the initiative to apologize to Liu Xinyi for the first time.

Because from her statement, it can be clearly felt that in this small family of mother and daughter, Liu Xinyi is the spiritual pillar.

Xu Qiubai had no right to say that she was rebellious, and since Liu Xunyue lied first, he couldn't say that Liu Xinyi didn't respect her mother.

Hearing Xu Qiubai's apology, Liu Xinyi was a little stunned.

Then she awkwardly put her legs together in front of her and started twisting her hands:

"No...it's okay...Mom also told me that you worked very hard in September, so you didn't go to some classes...

You didn’t even have dinner that day and were hungry...I shouldn’t have taken my anger out on you..."

After they apologized to each other and spoke honestly, Liu Xinyi had a naive look about her. At this moment, she was like a girl next door who had just resolved a misunderstanding with the big brother next door.

"You don't seem to have a very good impression of your late father? Or am I wrong?"

Xu Qiubai asked Liu Xinyi to clear up his doubts again.

Liu Xinyi thought for a long time before she said:

"He was a good-natured man with no temper and no limits. It was because of this character that he lost his life and made my mother suffer for half her life."

Xu Qiubai finally put a lot of things together:

I avoided him when I first saw him because I was scared by Xu Qiubai's face.

The reason why September was annoying was that Xu Qiubai did not follow the rules, grabbed the quota, and was shameless. Even if he was fined and deducted points, he didn't say a word and didn't care, like a puddle of disgusting mud.

The favorability at 10 o'clock on the evening of September th showed another side of Xu Qiubai at that extreme moment.

Not only does he have a bad temper and blood, but the principles he speaks are also very firm.

If the man surnamed Xu had been half as tough as him, he would never have died so easily.

And at that moment, Liu Xinyi realized that Xu Qiubai really cared about her mother and there was no deception in his heart.

So in the first half of October, she tried hard to convince herself and acquiesced to Xu Qiubai's work in the flower shop. Of course, the feud over the quota for poor students and school discipline still existed. If Xu Qiubai could not change his behavior, she would still expel him without hesitation.

However, Xu Qiubai demonstrated his ability and wisdom many times afterwards, which made her like him more.

Until that night at the Manor.

No matter from which angle you look at it, Xu Qiubai's words were a bit too ridiculous, and he didn't drink.
