Since the end of the family party, Wang Weixi had been in a good mood for days. Chen Keren somehow disappeared and never come to visit him or Yi Duanfang during those days.
Soon enough, it was Friday. Tong Siqi did not send him a gift again, but he was somewhat curious about her.
Yi Duanfang seemed to have found some new interests and seldom came to the company in recent days. Wang Weixi thought that Yi Duanfang was probably dating someone, but when he spoke his thought to Yi Duanfang, Yi Duanfang just replied, “What the f*ck is dating?”
“Your parents are worried about you. Do you plan to remain single until I have a child or something?” said Wang Weixi.
Most parents believed that it was good for a young man to get married and have a wife to take care of him when he was busy building his career, but Wang Weixi, a married young man, highly doubted that. He was busy taking care of Chen Kexin all the time, and Chen Kexin seldom did anything for him.
He even thought. “Yi Duanfang probably has taken warning from my example and thus decides to remain single all his life.”
At noon, he finally got a chance to have lunch together with Yi Duanfang.
“Duanfang, your mum called me again. She wants me to introduce a girlfriend to you. You’re about to turn 30. It’s probably time for you to get married,” Wang Weixi said during the lunch.
Yi Duanfang said indifferently, “Save it, bro. I don’t want to become someone like you, who is tortured by a woman every day. Look at you. This week is going to kill us, but you still have to cook for your wife. Chen Kexin hasn’t done anything to help you.” In Yi Duanfang’s eyes, Chen Kexin was a gluttonous, lazy and cunning woman who always pretended to be innocent. It put his teeth on edge to think about this woman.
Upon hearing that, Wang Weixi just chuckled and picked up some vegetables with his chopsticks.
Yi Duanfang rolled his eyes at him, with a what-the-f*ck-are-you-laughing-at expression on his face. After that, he lowered his head to eat.
Wang Weixi was patient. He picked up some meat and put it into Yi Duanfang’s dish, while saying, “We used to discuss our plans for the future while lying on the playground back in the high school when we were tired of playing basketball. Do you still remember it?”
“Keke…” People sitting around them suddenly turned to look at them upon hearing Wang Weixi’s words.
Yi Duanfang swallowed the meat and grumbled, “Yes, I remember. How can I forget it? But don’t try to persuade me with those old plans. We said that we would get married together, but look at your wife. You said that you’ll marry a woman who is pretty, capable, good at cooking and keke…” Yi Duanfang lowered his voice and added, “and good in bed.”
Wang Weixi chuckled and thought, “Well, every man wants such a wife.”
“But what about your wife? She’s good for nothing and can’t even cook for herself. As for your last requirement, whew, I don’t know. You have to find it out by yourself. I can’t say anything about that,” Yi Duanfang said with sarcasm, and then he felt that he really had no interest in talking about this thing anymore.
Wang Weixi waved his hand and said, “Come on, don’t you know that there’s always a distance between ideal and reality? You live much better than me. I used to think that you would get married earlier than me, but now you’re still single. Hey, are you… secretly in love with me?”
…
Yi Duanfang gritted his teeth in anger. He pointed at Wang Weixi and said, “You are such a scoundrel. You’re married now. How can you hit on me like that?”
People around them started to look at them queerly. Wang Weixi ignored them, which was a rare thing for him, and continued, “Kexin is not good for nothing. She’s able to make many different dishes. Yesterday, she even told me that she wanted to learn to do laundry. Sigh… I’ve already gotten used to do everything for her. Every time I look at her, I’ll think that what I’ve done in the past time is worthwhile.”
Yi Duanfang took a bite of his food grumpily and said, “Wang Weixi, you are such a masochist!”
Wang Weixi chuckled and said, “Come on. Maybe you’ll suffer more than I do. Look at you. You must be a masochist too!”
Yi Duanfang snorted and said, “I’m not going to marry any woman. For me, a woman is not as good as a piece of clothing.” Right after he finished his sentence, he felt that some people were glaring at him angrily.
He turned his face to look back and saw several women staring at him while gnashing their teeth. Wang Weixi was amused watching Yi Duanfang get into trouble, but Yi Duanfang just took a deep breath and continued to eat.
After lunch, they looked at the clock. They still had one and a half hours left before going to work this afternoon. “Do you want to go back to take a nap?” Wang Weixi asked with curiosity.
Yi Duanfang rolled his eyes at him and thought, “Take a nap after lunch? Come on, that incident cast a huge shadow on my fragile heart! I even can’t sleep well at night.”
After a moment’s thought, he said, “No, I don’t want to take a nap. Let’s go to have some coffee.”
Wang Weixi nodded to him, and then they paid their bill and left.
In the past, Yi Duanfang’s favorite cafe had been Esoterica Cafe. It was a quiet place, and the service there was great. Wang Weixi was used to drinking instant coffee. He would never spend several dozen or several hundred yuan on a cup of coffee unless Yi Duanfang dragged him into a cafe.
Now, Yi Duanfang’s favorite cafe was Black Friday, but that cafe was owned by Chen Keren. After some hesitation, he invited Wang Weixi to go to Black Friday together without telling him that it was Chen Keren’s cafe.
When Wang Weixi heard the specific location of the cafe, he was surprised and asked, “Isn’t it quite far away from here? There are many cafes nearby. Why do we have to go there?”
Today, they came out driving Wang Weixi’s car. Yi Duanfang sat in the co-driver’s seat and said, “We’ve already come to this faraway place to have lunch. Why can’t we go any farther away to have some coffee?”
“I was just wondering what’s so good about that cafe. Why do you have to go there?” Wang Weixi asked with curiosity.
Yi Duanfang said solemnly, “Well, that cafe is well furnished and nicely decorated. The servants there are friendly and look great. Most importantly, the coffee there is great. Stop talking. Just drive your car.” Yi Duanfang urged Wang Weixi impatiently.
Wang Weixi had no choice but to head toward the cafe.
As the cool breeze blew through the window, Yi Duanfang felt somewhat sleepy. He stared unseeing out of the window and talked with Wang Weixi about the their past.
“Weixi, have you ever wondered why Tong Siqi dumped you?” Suddenly, Yi Duanfang asked with curiosity.
Wang Weixi replied without thinking, “Of course. I wondered why but could not figure out the reason. We were so in love the day before, but the next day, everything changed. I was annoyed and confused and had a lot of questions, but when I noticed the determined look on her face, I suddenly realized that everything was over and I didn’t have to ask her anything.” Wang Weixi sill felt somewhat angry when thinking back to that day. but he was much calmer about this thing now.
Yi Duanfang remained silent. Every time they mentioned Tong Siqi, he would become unusually somber.
Wang Weixi quietly drove the car. Yi Duanfang hesitated for a while and continued to ask, “Is it possible that she was forced by circumstances to break up with you?”
Wang Weixi looked somewhat grim and asked with curiosity, “Yi Duanfang, when did you suddenly become so interested in Tong Siqi? Why do you care so much about her? Do you want to speak for her or something? Did she send you a gift secretly?” Perhaps Wang Weixi was really upset. His tone became aggressive.
Yi Weifang could tell that Wang Weixi was a little angry, so he waved his hand and said slowly, “Forget it. I know it’s hard to change your opinion. I shouldn’t interfere in this thing. It’s my bad.”
Wang Weixi did not speak, and the atmosphere inside the car suddenly became very depressed.
Yi Duanfang coughed twice and said with feigned indifference, “Why didn’t you go home to cook for your wife today?”
“Kexin is busy learning cooking. Keren gave me a call and said that she would take her to have lunch.” Wang Weixi answered with a blank expression.
