The leader is my girlfriend

Chapter 154 Uncle Liu’s Love Story (Part 2)

"We kissed while holding a piece of coffee candy in our mouths. The candy was very big, but she accidentally swallowed it. I was afraid she would choke, and she was also startled. Then we looked at each other and suddenly smiled. She hugged me, and I hugged her back. That was my first kiss.

Then I knelt on one knee, took out the ring I had prepared, and said to her, I love you, in the name of my life.

Does this sound too exaggerated? But I really love her. I can't understand how I could fall in love with a woman in such a short time, love her so much, love her so madly, so narcissistically, and so hard to forget.

"What about you now? Do you still love her?" Wang Yiming understood, after all, that was Bai Yueguang's weight.

"Love, of course I love. But... I don't know if this love is true love or just an obsession. Just like the question I asked at the beginning, sometimes I hope she's dead, because only then will she belong to me forever and love me forever; but sometimes I think, as long as she can live well, even if it's just for me to know that she's still safe from afar, anything is fine.

Are people really contradictory and entangled? They want this and that at the same time, sometimes one way and sometimes another, and in the end they get themselves confused and there is no result.

Liu Zhe drank another glass of wine, and Wang Yiming followed suit.

"She wore the ring I prepared for her, but she only wore it for a few days because when she was washing her hands, the ring was accidentally washed into the sink. Maybe at that time, it was a hint that we really weren't destined to be together. However, I prepared a new ring and wanted to give it to her again when I had the chance, but later I didn't have the chance.

At that time, I asked her why she chose me, and she smiled and told me that on the day she decided whether to confess her love to me, she accidentally picked up a coin.

Then, she flipped the coin three times in a row. If it landed heads each time, she would bravely declare her love to me; if it landed tails, then she would pretend nothing had happened.

"Three times all positive?" Wang Yiming suspected that this was fate, but it was a completely bad fate.

Liu Zhe nodded. "Yes, she said it was heads three times, so I asked her, what about the coin? I must thank this coin and keep it as a sacrifice. But she said she used the coin to buy ice cream after she tossed it three times.

But since then, I have also specially prepared a coin and kept it in the compartment of my wallet so that I can see it when I open it."

"Just put coins in it, is there anything else?" Wang Yiming was very curious, for example, did anyone give him something?

"There's another candy wrapper, the wrapper for the first candy."

"Is it still there?"

"No more. I gave it to her 10 years ago."

"You went abroad to study more than 20 years ago and returned it to her more than 10 years ago. That means you have been in contact all these years!" Wang Yiming thought while carefully sorting out the timeline.

"We didn't keep in touch. The owner of that pub later returned to China to develop his business and reopened the pub. After I happened to hear the news, I couldn't help but go there a few times, so there was still a place for communication like this. I would leave messages there regularly. It was quite a coincidence that she also returned to China, saw the messages I left, and replied to me."

"Then which city is she in now?" How can a broken fate be continued?

Liu Zhe did not answer Wang Yiming's question. He just silently picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

"Uncle, how long have you been together?" Wang Yiming changed the subject. He was curious about how long one has to be together before one can miss someone so much that they can't let go for more than twenty years!

Facing Wang Yiming's question, Liu Zhe slowly said, "128 days."

"What?" Wang Yiming was clearly shocked by the answer, his face filled with disbelief. A relationship that had lasted for over 20 years and was still unforgettable could be represented by such a detailed and fleeting number?

Liu Zhe filled his glass. "From the time I saw the letter agreeing to meet until she ended it, we were together for a total of 128 days. That day was May 16th."

"Uncle..." Wang Yiming paused, watching Liu Zhe down another glass of wine. What should he do? Join him for a drink.

"Yeah, to be honest, I can't figure it out, let alone understand why just 128 days could make me think about it so much and worry about it for so many years?

Over the years, I've met many different kinds of people, and many lesbians have confessed their love to me, but she's the only one who makes me feel happy at first sight. I don't understand why. I still can't figure it out.

You know what? Even though I'm face-blind, I really care about a person's appearance. If someone is good-looking, it's definitely a plus.

However, I didn't even know what she looked like, but I fell in love with her just because of the simple "Good evening".

Just these few words made my heart flutter. Why, and on what basis?"

"Then why did you separate?"

"..."

Okay, Wang Yiming got it. If you want to hear the full story, you have to keep "renewing" your subscription. Let's have another drink!

"Because she said - tired and dispersed. Just those four words, not even a single extra punctuation mark."

"You agreed?"

Normally, people would try again. 4 months means they are just out of the honeymoon period, or are they still in the honeymoon period?

"Of course I disagree, but love...it's a matter between two people at the beginning, and it ends with just one person. I can't hold back."

"What then?"

"Later, I retreated to the role of friends and continued to chat with her. I wrote more, but she replied less. After a while, she told me that she liked another person. That person was a married man, but she didn't know it before. She was scolded by his wife. I was very distressed.

That's when I realized she was in very poor health. She had a condition called bipolar disorder. When she was quiet, she was unusually quiet, and even had suicidal thoughts. She could only rely on medication to slightly alleviate her symptoms.

But sometimes, she would suddenly become extremely irritable without any warning. Even experienced doctors were helpless in the face of such a situation and could not think of any solution. They could only tell her that if she felt really uncomfortable and wanted to smoke or drink, she should do as she pleased, as long as she could calm herself down as much as possible.

Honestly, I usually have a problem with girls smoking and drinking. But I've discovered that if you like someone, then all those so-called principles, rules, and regulations can be broken. It seems like I can tolerate and accept anything she does, no matter how she does it.

Wang Yiming offered a glass, "Is she always like this?"

"No, when we met again many years later, she told me that she was in her best condition when she met me, and she thought all her symptoms had stabilized.

She also said that she once chatted with her grandmother and asked her grandmother if she liked someone and she was still in this situation, would she want to be together?

Her grandmother said that if possible, she should stop bothering others, because many things are difficult to achieve.

She thought so too, but my inner thoughts were completely different. Even if there was no result, I still wanted to be with her.

But at that time, I knew her family background was extraordinary, her father was powerful, and her uncle was also in a high position. The gap was too big, and I felt inferior and could not compare at all. So I did not have the courage to open my mouth and say I loved her, just like when I first expressed my feelings, I was not the one who took the initiative to speak.

"Then why didn't you keep in touch later? Because you graduated and returned to your country?"

College graduation season is breakup season, Wang Yiming has seen this many times. Long-distance relationships often end in failure, not to mention cross-border relationships that also fail.

"Later on, her family moved away and we haven't heard from her since. No matter how hard I searched, I couldn't find any trace of her."

"You've all changed a lot since we met again, right?"

"Maybe, but she is still the free and easy person, and I am still the timid one."
