Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

In this two months, Wu called Yue Yue a few times, wanting to meet up with her but she didn't agree with it. She said that, whenever you're recovered, we can meet then. However, until then, you should do some reflection during that period of time. For the sake of meeting Yue Yue, Wu has been actively cooperating with Shuai for his treatment. He didn't eat anything that he wasn't supposed to, he even stopped playing his phone as he was afraid of the radiation would affect the rate of recovery. Finally, he pulled through these hardships.

Yue Yue heard that he was fully recovered, then agreed on meeting him.

It was at another place now. At a park beside a lake, without any sight of bricks.

Wu arrived early. He was standing by the lake, enjoying the breeze. Comparing to the attire he wore last time, Wu appeared cleaner and neater this time. He even wore the t-shirt Yue Yue bought for him, which was his birthday present when he was in the second year of university. He couldn't fit into it before, but he tried it yesterday and miraculously it fitted him once again.

Yue Yue's fair skin looks extra translucent and illuminating under natural sunlight. Her figure is also indisputably great, slim waist paired with a pair of long, smooth legs. Seeing her walking towards him, every cell of his screamed in excitement. Especially when he hadn't seen her for days now, his heart itch as if a cat is scratching on it.

When Yue Yue saw Wu, there's no other expression on her face except in awe.

'Why did you lose so much weight?'

'I was thinking about you,' Wu reached out to stroke her hair, 'You said I was fat the last time, I was trying hard to lose weight. Although it didn't meet my expectations but I will continue trying.'

Yue Yue's gaze briefly grazed where Wu's hand touched just now.

Wu stepped in closer, 'You said you would consider again, so what's your decision?' 'Yes, we're still breaking up.' This was the second time hearing this sentence but Wu's heart couldn't help it but ache again.

'Why? You said I was fat, I went to lose weight immediately. What do you want from me again?'

Yue Yue still talked unequivocally, 'Wu, I've said before, it's not the problem of the few pounds of fats we're talking about. You don't know what kind of life I want to live in, I don't wish to become a wife and a mom at such young age. I don't want to spend my life in supermarkets, shopping in value shops, do you get me?'

Wu glared tenaciously, 'You're saying that I'm a cheapskate?'

'It's not whether you're a cheapskate or not,' Yue Yue said exasperatedly, 'Why don't you understand? Looking at your situations and your future, no matter how generous you are, you're always going to be like this.'

'Why don't have I a future? I'm working in a state-owned enterprise, it's a job everyone wants. Although my salary is not very high, but after a few years, after I become an engineer, I could easily get $50k to $60k per year.'

'Tsk...only $50k to $60k? Can you buy a big mansion?'

The passionate fire in Wu's heart put out almost in an instant by this autumn breeze.

'Yue Yue, you weren't like this! I still remember when we're still studying, you said that you don't need anything you just want to live with me forever.'

'Can't you hear those were kind words?' Yue Yue is becoming restless, 'I thought you would perceive it the other way, I thought you would be moved by my words and be more motivated. Who would've thought that you're so naïve and innocent? You're always bragging about that company of yours, I have no idea how you got this strong sense of superiority.'

Wu was in loss of words.

'That's enough, I've said what I should. From now on, we're...'

'I could die for you again.' Wu interrupted Yue Yue's sentence.

Yue Yue's eyes dimmed, 'Aren't you tired of using the same method over and again? Plus there's nowhere you could find a brick here.'

To her surprise, Wu's lips formed into an unusual smile.

'Isn't it just a brick?'

After saying, he turned and walked towards the huge tree behind. He clawed away the dirt and exposed a brick that he had planted it earlier.

The same position, the same strength, the one and only head in this entire world. At least this time he managed t. survive the blow without passing out.

'Wu, you bastard!!'

After she chided, she still walked towards Wu, pulling him out of the park.
