But you should also know that if one person doesn’t love another, then even if these two people forcibly stay together, how can they truly be happy, truly be joyful? Everything we do is just for that: simple happiness. But now, thinking about every mistake we made, how ridiculous, how foolish they were. We hurt the father who was the best to us. Later, I poured out my heart to my dad and had a falling out with him. In order to be with my wife, I argued with my father again and again. I even left ho. I would rather run away from ho than live in that suffocating house!
Your grandfather agreed, and after we got together, I was very happy. I thought that was enough since he agreed, but I didn’t expect that after experiencing these things, my father actually chose to say sothing unexpected to him. My wife was very, very angry, and I didn’t know how I could persuade her.
I will never forget every word I said to my wife when I found her that day.
Those days, I kept holding back and kept thinking day and night about going to Xia Jing’s house to find her. I wanted to ask Xia Jing why she was still angry. Why wasn’t she calling ? I thought that even if Xia Jing didn’t call herself, she should pick up the phone if I called her!
The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. I didn’t expect Xia Jing to not even answer her phone. I figured Xia Jing was still angry, so I called her several more tis.
"Sorry, the number you have dialed is powered off, please try again later..." I listened to the chanical voice from the phone and dialed again.
"Sorry, the number you have dialed is temporarily out of service, please try again later..." The phone still played the sa chanical voice as before. Listening to that chanical voice, I felt an inexplicable anger; I rushed downstairs to go to Xia Jing’s house to find her, but my father stopped .
"Zhentian, where are you going?" My father looked at in a panicked manner, thinking sothing had happened to .
"Dad, I’m going to find Xia Jing. I called her so many tis and she hasn’t answered. From yesterday until now she hasn’t called once, and I’m worried sothing might have happened to her." After I said that, I was about to leave.
Hearing what I said, my father thought his son was silly. He said to , "You silly boy, if you were a bit smarter, you wouldn’t have listened to and stayed ho. You should have rushed out to find Xia Jing. Others are almost about to land in the UK now, surely they can’t answer the phone on the plane!"
"Zhentian, Xia Jing not answering the phone doesn’t an sothing happened to her, maybe she’s still mad at you, so she turned off her phone. She’ll be fine in a few days. Besides, it’s so late today, Xia Jing should be asleep by now." My father still hoped that this ti I wouldn’t listen to him and would run out to find Xia Jing. But I was so elated because Old Master Zhang agreed with Xia Jing and being together that I listened to my father’s words.
This ti, I listened to my father’s words again, stayed ho, and didn’t go to find Xia Jing.
The first day, I called, no answer. The second day, I called, still no answer. The third day, I called, still no answer... Until the seventh day, I called, still no answer. I felt it was strange. Even if for one day or two days there was no answer, what about three or four days? Even if for three or four days there was no answer, it’s already the seventh day now, how co there’s still no answer?
These days I held back at ho again and again. I restrained myself from going to find Xia Jing. I thought I would wait for Xia Jing not to be angry anymore and then go to apologize to her. But now, I really couldn’t stand it anymore. I felt I must go find Xia Jing.
In a whirlwind, I rushed upstairs to the study to find Old Master Zhang. I flung open the door of the study. When Old Master Zhang saw it was coming in, he sternly said to , "Zhentian, what’s wrong with you? Don’t you know you have to knock before entering my study?"
I didn’t care about what my father said at the ti, and directly said, "Dad, it’s already the seventh day today, and Xia Jing still hasn’t answered my calls. I really can’t be at ease. I have to go find her."
