She didn’t even know why she foolishly agreed to the five-day request. She and Qin Zhiyou divorced not because the love was gone, nor because of conflicts. They separated because they still harbored love and unwillingness, not wanting to become a burden, that was why they had to part ways. These five days wouldn’t help them to break off more cleanly; instead, they would deepen her yearnings.
Although she didn’t want to end up like Qin Zhiyou, who had previously declared he’d remarry if he found someone suitable, her life couldn’t revolve solely around love, nor could her heart be completely filled by Qin Zhiyou alone. The unresolved issues in her life resulted in chaos; she had made the cut, but was still dragging her feet, stepping through mud and splashing it all over herself.
But rationally, she knew she should refuse, that the best thing to do was to leave now. Yet her body, her heart, simply couldn’t manage it. All she did was to hold him tighter, to freely release all her pent-up emotions.
Just like fireworks. Everyone knows they’re nothing but a brief splendor and beauty before they return to calmness. Yet no one refuses the most beautiful scene when the fireworks burst forth.
She was just an ordinary woman, hesitant and indecisive, dragging her feet and looking back before making a move, then wavering in her decisions. So, she shouldn’t be too hard on herself, allowing herself to vent all the emotions accumulated over the years in these few days.
After their love-making, both were panting for breath. At least this time Qin Zhiyou remembered to take precautions, not requiring her to take any pills afterward. But then she stretched her legs, rolled over, and stretched lazily, complaining in a whiny voice, “I’m hungry.”
Qin Zhiyou hummed in response but didn’t move.
“It’s your fault. I’m too tired to move. But I’m hungry.” This time, she prodded his leg with her little toe. When Qin Zhiyou turned his head, all he saw was her black hair cascading down like a waterfall, her face slightly blushed, that lazy and imperious tone exactly like the way she used to order Qin Zhigu around.
After they got married, her temper mellowed a lot, erupting only when provoked. Toward him, she was mostly silent and cooperative, hardly ever showing such imperious behavior, let alone being coquettish or speaking softly to him. Their marriage seemed devoid of romantic love, it had transitioned directly into kinship, companionship.
