Counter Attack Chapter 4

During the two months of recovery, Wu Qiqiong had called Yue Yue many times to ask her out. But was all turned down by Yue Yue. Yue Yue told him she will meet him only after he had fully recovered. She asked him to take the time and reflect on himself. In order to be able to meet her sooner, Wu Qiqiong had been very cooperative during treatment. He would never eat those things that are forbidden by the doctor. Later, he even stopped playing with phone as he was worried the radiation would deter his wound recovery. At last the days are over.

Yue Yue heard Wu Qiqiong had recovered. Only then had she agreed to meet him.

This time round, it's not at the alley anymore. They agreed to meet at the lakeside in the park. It's a location where one will never find a single piece of brick at all.

Wu Qiqiong was early. He stood at the bank of the lake, whistling. As compared to his horrible state before, Wu Qiqiong was much neater and tidier this time round. He even had the T-shirt that Yue Yue bought for him on. She had given it to him on his birthday in Year 2 of university. After he had put on weight he couldn't wear it anymore. Yesterday he managed to rummage it out and tried it on. Surprisingly it fitted.

Yue Yue's fair face was shining with radiance when the sun rays fell on her. It was crystal clear. Her body was flawless; Slim and slender. Seeing her walking over, every single nerve on Wu Qiqiong's body was screaming with delight. It had been long since they had last met. His heart was as if being scratched by a cat's paw. It was fluttering like mad.

Yue Yue saw Wu Qiqiong. Except for a flash of surprise, there was no other emotion showing on her face.

"How did you become so thin?"

"Because I was missing you." Wu Qiqiong reached out his hand to brush away the strand of hair on Yue Yue's forehead. "You said I was fat the other time we met. So I have been working hard to lose weight. Although I've yet hit the target, but I'll try my best."

Yue Yue dodged his hand without any emotions.

Wu Qiqiong edged closer. "You said you wanted to think over again during this time. Have you thought it out?"

"Yes I have. Let's break up."

Although it's the second time he had heard it, it still wretched Wu Qiqiong's heart badly.

"Why? You said I was fat so I lost weight. What else do you want me to do?"

Yue Yue blurted frankly, "Wu Qiqiong. I have told you it's not about the weight on your body. You have absolutely no idea of the kind of life that I want. I don't want to be a mother at such a young age. I don't want to experience the life of endless markets and unlimited off-the racket goods. Do you understand that?"

Wu Qiqiong's eyes were obstinately unmoving. "You just think I'm stingy."

"It's not about whether you're stingy or not." Yue Yue grew agitated. "Why can't you get it? With your current state and future, even if you start being generous, that's all you will have."

"Why do I have no future? I am working at a MNC. So many people wrack their head trying to squeeze in but they can't. Don't think so little of my current salary. After a few years, after I have become an engineer, I will have fifty to sixty thousand CNY annually."

"TskTsk...... Fifty to sixty thousand CNY? Can get us a house of one metre squared huh?"

The fire that had ignited within Wu Qiqiong was instantly diminished by the chilling breeze of autumn.

"Yue Yue, you're not like this before! I remember when we were studying, you told me you won't ask for anything as long as you are with me forever."

"I'm being courteous can't you tell?" Yue Yue felt worse and worse. "I thought you will take it ironically, be motivated because you are moved and achieve something and be a man! Who knows you're so fucking rigid. I said I won't ask for anything so you really didn't try. Showing your contented face every single day and always talking about MNCs, MNCs. I have seriously no idea where you got that superiority from!"

Wu Qiqiong was lost for words.

"Forget it. I have said all that I can say. Form today onward, the both of us......"

"I can die for you again." Wu Qiqiong interrupted.

Yue Yue's eye grew dark, like a black line without boundary. "Aren't you tired of using the same old tactic twice? Furthermore it's a grass patch here, where can you find a brick?"

Unexpectedly, a creepy smile crept on Wu Qi Qong's face all of a sudden.

"Isn't it just a brick?"

Once said, he turned around and headed towards the tree behind. Under Yue Yue's sight, he pried open the layers of grass and took out the piece of brick that was buried beforehand......

One of a kind forehead; it's still at the same spot, still with the same force, only difference was that he tried his best to keep his conscious this time round.

"Wu Qiqiong, you're no human!!!"

Yue Yue cursed and run over to Wu Qi Qiong while clenching her teeth tightly. She supported his arm and headed outside the park.
