âUh-huh?â It seemed that on the other side of the line, Liang Doukou hadnât thought about that question. Therefore, when she was asked, she couldnât answer immediately. After a while, she answered, âOh, please wait a momentâ¦â
Through the cell phone, Qin Zhiâai heard Liang Doukou communicating with others in English. Because she spoke in a low voice, Qin Zhiâai couldnât hear clearly, but from some of the English words, she guessed that Liang Doukou was probably asking the doctor about her health condition.
After about five minutes, Liang Doukou spoke to her clearly again in Chinese. âJust now, I asked my attending doctor. If things go well, Iâll be back home next month on the 10th.â
The 10th of next month⦠Today is the 25th. That is to say, in fifteen days, the real Liang Doukou will come back, while I, the pretend one, will leave⦠Holding the phone, Qin Zhiâai felt her fingers tremble.
She had thought that Liang Doukou would come back after a long time. However, she would be back much earlier than Qin Zhiâai had expected.
After saying that, Liang Douâkou hadnât heard Qin Zhiâaiâs response, so she asked her again, âAny other questions?â
âNo.â Qin Zhiâai pulled herself back to reality and answered, âI donât have any other questions.â
âThe time is much earlier than expected, but donât worry. Even if you only have to work for half a month next month, Iâll give you a whole monthâs pay.â Liang Doukou thought that Qin Zhiâai had asked her when she was coming back because of the money. Therefore, she repeated the amount of money that she had promised her before. âAfter receiving the money, you can pay off your fatherâs debts.â
âThank you.â Qin Zhiâai paused for a while and continued, âSee you!â
âSee you.â
â¦
After hanging up, Qin Zhiâai was fixed there with her phone in hand. All she could think of was the time Liang Dou had told her.
At first, she had thought with that opportunity, she could approach Gu Yusheng. Then maybe like Cinderella, she, too, could have a midnight fantasy. She had thought that she could pretend to be Liang Doukou and do something for him that she had dreamed of many times: cook for him, wait for him to come home, get along with him harmoniouslyâ¦
She hadnât realized that what she had thought was too simple and naive until she had lived in his villa and approached him as she had originally wished, since the relationship between Liang Doukou and him was so terrible that she could only stay away from him and try not to badger him.
However, things were always out of her control. No matter how well she had done, she always annoyed him⦠Though they had experienced a few wonderful moments⦠she found that she felt more unhappy when he treated her well than when he treated her mercilessly, because she wasnât the real Liang Doukou.
Liang Doukou would finally come back, and she would return to the world she had originally lived in.
She felt a little relaxed, but more depressed, because he didnât exist in her original world.
Fifteen days. After fifteen days, she would have no contact with him any longer.
Qin Zhiâai became a bit absent minded. After a while, she stopped all her self-destructive thoughts and slowly walked back to Gu Yushengâs villa.
Thinking about her own issues the whole time, she hadnât paid attention to the car parked at the entrance of the yard and went directly into the yard. When she was halfway through, the door was pushed open and the voice of the housekeeper traveled to her. âMr. Gu, goodbye.â
