Chapter 2 She Doesn't Deserve It
"Mom, don't think about these unhappy things anymore, or else when Dad sees you like this, he'll also leave with a worried heart."
An Qi'er thought about comforting her mother in a better way.
An Mu also understood An Qi's good intentions, but could only smile wryly and say, "Qi, help me back to bed, I'm a bit tired and want to take a nap."
"Alright, mom, you need to rest more and not overexert yourself, I'm here for you too." An Mu smiled with relief as she leaned on An Qi'er's arm and lay back down in bed.
An Qi'er took the rag handed down by An Mu and started cleaning the room, especially her own room. Thinking that the princess's room where she grew up was about to be brutally taken away, she felt sad and fell onto the bed wailing.
Thinking of her father, who was originally about to make a big show, suddenly becoming a debtor, and being unable to withstand the sudden pressure, he suddenly died. The subsequent bankruptcy and the ruthless refusal of relatives and friends made An Qi'er sigh that the world is cold-blooded from the beginning. Ye Tianrui, who had grown up with her since childhood, had promised that even if she was no longer a rich girl, he would still marry her according to his childhood promise, but how did he suddenly change today and become so cruel to her?
"Excuse me, may I have a taste?"
"This is the most delicious beef patty I've ever had"
It's strange, why did the man's sunny smile suddenly appear in front of me? And his smile is really so bright and warm, it's the first time I've seen someone who can smile like that, a smile that can penetrate into my heart and drive away the gloom that has been accumulating for a long time.
"What's his name? He left in a hurry, I forgot to ask him. But with my current humble status, how can I even ask for his name? Just by looking at the label on his clothes, he must be a young master from a noble family."
An Qi'er thought for a moment, then suddenly sat up straight, patted her own face and said: "What's wrong with me? Why am I thinking about such nonsense? My heart should only have Tian Rui Ge, even if he treats me like that. Maybe something happened to him, so his mood is not good."
Duan Ruiqi gazed at the freshly squeezed orange juice and tender meat rolls on the table, knowing without a doubt that it was Le Di's doing. However, he didn't touch them, instead turning his attention to the computer screen with utmost focus and dedication.
After a while, Letty allowed to come in and take a look at the motionless food, inevitably feeling a little disappointed. With an inquiring tone that did not conceal her disappointment, she asked: "Are you not satisfied with the food on the table? What do you want to eat? I'll go change it for you."
Duan Ruiqi didn't lift her head to look at Lettie, still staring at the screen, saying: "No need, thank you, Lettie, I'm not hungry, take it away."
"Yes, President." Ledi, who was still walking with food, said reluctantly: "President, is dinner set to be eaten outside or in the office?"
"Don't arrange anything for me, I have a date tonight, you can just go home on time." Fang Ruiqi thought to herself that she would still find Ye Tianrui to drink tonight.
"President, where are we going tonight?" Letty asked unhappily
Duan Ruiqi was getting impatient, raised her head and gave Leidi a cold glance. This one glance made Leidi realize she had said something wrong, and timidly apologized: "President, I'm sorry, I just worry about you."
"Letti, I'm fine now, don't worry about me, just focus on your own things." Duan Ruiqi gave a gentle smile and then lowered his head to continue with his work, not noticing the distressed look on Letti's face.
"Qī ér, have you thought this job through? After all, you've never worked before. Can you really handle a job like this?" asked classmate Zhīzhī with some concern.
An Qi'er gave a reassuring smile, "Zhi Zhi, now I have no choice but to choose a job that I like. Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you, I will work hard to do this job well." An Qi'er said so, but touched her bare back and still felt a bit uncomfortable wearing such a revealing skirt.
Zhi Zhi also understood An Qi'er, and immediately took out a yellowish mushroom-shaped wig from her own closet and handed it to An Qi'er. "Put this on, even if you run into acquaintances, they won't recognize you right away."
"Thank you, Xi Xi", An Qi'er took over the wig with emotion
"How did I end up thinking of coming here to drink today?" Duan Ruiqi looked around at the dazzling multicolored lights, and he, who usually preferred to quietly drink in his own private room, felt a bit repelled by the noise of this disco.
Ye Tianrui took a big mouthful of ice-cold beer, let out a satisfied sigh and wiped his mouth with force before passing the bottle to Duan Ruiqi, "Finish this one!"
"You look even more depressed than I am today, what's wrong?" Duan Ruiqi asked after taking a sip.
Ye Tianrui's face was filled with grief and indignation, his eyelids reddening as he stared at Duan Ruiqi, "You can't remember the woman who was with you last night?"
"What's going on? Why are you asking this? And, to be honest, I really can't remember anything. I was too drunk last night and just wanted to sleep well. If it weren't for your reminder, I wouldn't have remembered that I was with a woman at all." Duanyu Qi said so, but his mind still lingered on the bright red stain on the bed sheet this morning.
Ye Tianrui's heart was bitter and he laughed coarsely, shaking his head: "Nothing, it's just that woman miscalculated, thinking you'd take her as your girlfriend, but you can't even remember what she looks like. Women are really pitiful and laughable in their greed."
"It turned out to be like this" Duan Ruiqi murmured, thought for a moment and took out the checkbook from her bag, filled in a few lines and handed it to Ye Tianrui, "Help me give this to her, as compensation for last night".
Ye Tianrui took the check and looked at it, exclaiming involuntarily: "No need to give so much"
"This is what she deserves, after all it's her first time" Duan Ruiqi didn't want to reveal too much about last night's **
"For the first time?" Ye Tianrui muttered to himself, pondering over these three words, tightly grasping the check. Suddenly, as if thinking of something, he furiously tore up the check, and the pieces fell directly into his wine.
"Tianrui, what's wrong with you? Why did you tear up the check?" Duan Ruiqi was somewhat bewildered and felt that Ye Tianrui's behavior today was very unusual.
"No need to give that disgusting woman any more, I've already given her money. She's just too greedy and a cheap woman like her doesn't deserve our kindness." Ye Tianrui thought of all the good things he had done for An Qi'er and his heart ached with even more hatred towards An Qi'er.
