You're My Love Since The Beginning - Chapter 1
In March, it started to warm but still cold.
Bai Jingsi came out of the hospital, went to the bus stop to wait for the bus.
A gust of wind blew, she shuddered.
She felt that the dazzling sun of the afternoon was also bitterly cold.
A black half-worn sports car pulled up in front of her and stopped her.
“Miss Bai, can we talk?”
The man in the car, no, the boy, half looked up to her.
His gaze was quite stubborn under his black cap.
This voice was already familiar to her.
He had been calling her for two months in a row.
She had always refused to talk to him. But at this moment, she suddenly changed her mind and got in the car.
When the car drove to a nearby cafe, the two sat down, and the boy asked, “Do you want to order something?”
She shook her head, “Just spill it up.”
“It’s been two months. What are your considerations about the divorce?”
Hearing this, Bai Jingsi looked carefully at the boy in front of him. The boy wore a black tracksuit and a black cap, making his three-dimensional face features looked a bit severe.
After all, he was only 18 or 19 years old, still immature and reckless at this age.
She smiled quietly, “Divorce is such a big matter. Of course, I have to think about it.”
“How long should I wait?”
The boy became more impatient.
“It doesn’t seem to have anything to do with me.”
“What did you say? Don’t you know, you kept occupying Mrs. Rong’s position and make my sister…”
His voice inadvertently rose, everyone around him looked over. He had to keep his voice down.
“My sister’s status is not clear. Her position is unfavorable. She has been waiting for three years.” He gritted his teeth.
Waited for three years?
But did anyone knows how Bai Jingsi got through these three years?
“Oh!” Bai Jingsi couldn’t help laughing.
Were all the mistress so arrogant these days?
This made Bai Jingsi more enlightened. That woman asked her brother to force her to divorce, seriously?
The mistress is the Fu family’s eldest lady, the Fu Group president. How can she pull down her figure to do such a thing?
“Doesn’t she want to be a mistress? I let her experience more and accumulate some experience, which is also good for her.”
Fu Jiayi can see that Bai Jingsi has no intention of divorce.
“Bai Jingsi, what’s the point doing this? Brother-in-law, he doesn’t love you at all.”
There was a disdain look in the boy’s eyes.
He most despised this kind of woman, who still pestered his husband even there’s no more affection between the two of them.
“Brother-in-law?” There was a touch of sarcasm in Bai Jingsi’s eyebrows.
This mistress’ young brother called her husband as brother-in-law openly and confidently in front of her?
“Tell your brother-in-law to talk to me. As long as he agrees, I will divorce without hesitation.”
“You–” Fu Jiayi was blocked and can’t say anything.
His sister, Fu Jiawei, had mentioned this to Rong Ling openly and secretly several times.
Still, Rong Ling has no intention to divorce.
Seeing that his sister had been with him for three years but could only bear the bad reputation of being a mistress, he was worried.
“All right, Little brother. You shouldn’t get involved in this kind of extramarital affair. Go back to school and study hard, learn the correct concept of life.”
Bai Jingsi picked up her bag and turned away to leave.
It was nearly afternoon when she dragged her tired body back to her home in Yunjin District after busy almost a day.
She opened the door with the key and looked at the empty house, shuddering.
This is her and Rong Ling’s wedding house, more than 120-meter square, simple European style decoration. The spaces appeared to be very large, but she lived alone in the past two years, incredibly empty and deserted.
She went to the hospital for examination with an empty stomach in the morning. Until now, she hadn’t even drunk a mouthful of water. She was so hungry that her stomach couldn’t stand it.
She drank some warm water, forced herself to cook a bowl of egg noodles, sat at the table, and ate with small mouthfuls.
Each bite took a long time to swallow.
There was a sudden rush in the stomach and a burst of sweetness in the mouth in the middle of eating.
She covered her mouth and hurried to the bathroom, facing the toilet and spitting it out.
It was full of blood.
When she had finished vomiting, she went to the wash table, washed, and looked up at herself in the mirror. Her face was pale, her cheeks were obviously thin, and her eye sockets became darker.
Her mind echoed what the doctor said in the hospital this morning.
“Miss Bai, your uterine cancer has caused complications, and cancer has metastasized to your stomach.”
“If you don’t get chemotherapy, maybe… it won’t last much longer.”
“How long can I last?”
“If without chemotherapy, only a month.”
“What about if I took chemotherapy?”
“Chemotherapy can buy you a little more time, maybe three months or five months.”
She smiled miserably, “Forget it. I’m afraid of pain.”
She knew about her physical condition. She knew it a year ago.
The doctor sighed helplessly.
After staying for a while, she dried her face with a towel and went out of the bathroom.
Thinking that she only had a month left, she struggled for a long time before took her cell phone, removed Rong Ling from the blacklist, and sent him a text message:
Will you be back for dinner tonight? I’m going to make Fotiaoqiang* for you.
(*T/N: Steamed Abalone with Shark’s Fin and Fish Maw in Broth)
Fotiaoqiang is Rong Ling’s favorite dish. She often cooked for him in the first few years of their marriage.
After sending a text message, she held her cell phone and leaned against the balcony door, looking out. All the scenery in her eyes was like an illusion. She had a complicated feeling inside her heart.
Fu Jiayi said that Rong Ling doesn’t love her anymore, so she should get a divorce.
But that boy, what did he know?
He didn’t know anything.
“Buzzing.”
After a while, the phone vibrated, and a text message came in.
She regained consciousness, subconsciously wiped her face, and felt something cold. She found out that she was in tears.
For three years, she thought she was already let go of Rong Ling.
It turned out she hasn’t.
She turned up her phone and saw that it was a reply message from Rong Ling:
OK, I’ll be back as soon as I get off work.
She put on some makeup and went out to buy vegetables.
When she came back from shopping, it was only 03:30. Fotiaoqiang was a dish that took a lot of effort. It was the right time to start cooking it now.
When the meal was ready, it was already more than six o’clock. It was going dark outside. Bai Jingsi sat on the sofa, waited while resting.
When it was completely dark outside, there was still no movement at the door.
She looked up at the clock on the wall. It was almost eight o’clock.
The company gets off work at six, plus the traffic jam, it should be around seven to reach here.
He… probably won’t come?
She put down the pillow in her arms, stood up on the sofa, and found herself sitting until numb all over.
She came to the dinner table, picked up the soup porcelain pot containing Fotangqiao, and was about to pour the food into the dustbin.
There was a sound of unlocking the door. She turned around and saw Rong Ling, dressed in a black suit, coming in.
As soon as he entered the door, he took off his coat and changed his shoes on the porch.
She breathed a sigh of relief and silently put the soup pot back on the table.
When Rong Ling came forward, the two people looked at each other. The moment their eyes met, they feel as if it was a lifetime ago.
