Chapter 80 – The impulse to marry and have children
That night, Li Xiaoyun and I talked for a long time. The atmosphere was much more natural than when we first met. We even discussed our respective college romances, which made us both feel a bit melancholic and wistful.
Li Xiaoyun graduated from our local Mining University in Xuzhou. Her boyfriend in college was from Xiamen. Despite their deep love for each other, they eventually broke up due to geographical issues.
When I talked about my relationship with Jian Wei, I felt even more helpless than Li Xiaoyun. I was so reckless for love, even accommodating Jian Wei and moving to Shanghai with her. I was willing to work and live in Shanghai, but in the end, I couldn't escape the fate of breaking up. I was depressed for a long time, gradually realizing that the beauty of love is fleeting, and not many people can truly hold onto it.
As Li Xiaoyun and I shared our feelings, it was already 10 o'clock at night, and it was about time to say goodbye.
Standing outside the restaurant, I counted out 1,000 yuan from my wallet and handed it to Li Xiaoyun, apologizing, "I feel a bit embarrassed, asking you for money on our first blind date."@@novelbin@@
Li Xiaoyun took the money from my hand with a smile, "It depends on how you see it. At that time, I thought you were quite peculiar, but now I think you are carefree, like a real man."
I joked, "So borrowing money can also show a man's carefreeness. Then next time I'll borrow more from you."
"That won't do. If it happens too often, it proves that the man has a problem. A man can be down and out for a while, but he can't always be like that, right?" Li Xiaoyun said to me, not joking at all.
What do you think?
