My Hubby Can’t Stop Pampering Me - Chapter 978 - Chapter 978 Chapter 980 Cold War (2)

Chapter 978: Chapter 980: Cold War (2) Chapter 978: Chapter 980: Cold War (2) At the height of her anger and resentment, she truly wanted to leave right then and there.

She had always been like this. During her relationship with Qin Zhigu, at the slightest disagreement, she would turn around and walk away with proud and haughty steps. In ninety percent of the cases, Qin Zhigu would chase after her, coaxing and pampering her. Her relationship with Qin Zhiyou had recently improved, and work was going well, so Lu Weixi gradually reverted to some of her past temperaments.

However, she was no longer the little girl she once was. With the passing of years and the previous five years of silence, it was impossible for her to completely revert to that spoiled princess image. Nor would she, as in the past, be wholeheartedly dependent on her boyfriend. Between her and Qin Zhiyou, there was the habit of living together for five years, the shared belief in defeating the same adversary, and the budding affection that had just begun to arise. They were partners, friends, and also a little of something between lovers.

Thus, on a sudden impulse, she called a taxi. Even though the car had already driven into the yard, she took a deep breath, still gave the driver a consolation fee, didn’t get in the car, and let the taxi drive away.

Impulsiveness and avoidance were not solutions to the problem. Since she was going to continue her life with Qin Zhiyou, it was essential to make things clear.

“I think it’s better to speak things clearly.”

With these words from Lu Weixi, Qin Zhiyou’s hand, holding the teacup, shook slightly. He only now realized he had been pouring water continuously as he had placed the cup back down with an air of nonchalance. Casually, he took a tissue to wipe off the water on his hand, lifted his hand, and the damp tissue fell into the nearby wastebasket. Then he gripped the cup tightly, appearing serene and composed, yet he took slow steps towards the door and gently closed it.

Then he turned around and positioned himself just behind the door. In this spot, if Lu Weixi wanted to storm out again in anger, she would have to get past him–at least this obstacle.

He then took a sip of water, “Go ahead.”

Lu Weixi was very calm. She let go of her suitcase and stood about two meters away from Qin Zhiyou, perfectly upright, “I am twenty-seven this year, two years post-graduation, working for five years, and married for five years. I have a plan. It is for myself and also for us. I’ll bring it up first, and if you have objections, we can discuss and decide together.”

She was rational, composed, and peaceful, much like the negotiators in the business world who engage in back-and-forth negotiations. Qin Zhiyou didn’t even raise an eyebrow but simply let out a “hmm” as his Adam’s apple moved.

“First and foremost, I have never thought about getting divorced. That is a major premise. I am confident that I can handle the situation with my mother. I have also never considered finding someone else. I am rational toward our marriage and also very loyal. Unless we encounter some utterly irresistible force or breach other major principles, I will strive to maintain our marriage.”

Qin Zhiyou continued to remain largely silent, only looking down and fiddling with his cup.

Observing him, as he remained quiet, Lu Weixi went on, “Moreover, I have my own career plans. I’ve mentioned this to you before. In another month or two, I will take the doctoral entrance examination. Although it’s a part-time program, I will not give up on my studies. Even if it’s only part-time, I also plan to continue aiming for a higher professional title at work. At the same time, if there are other great projects, I will do my best to compete for them. You’ve known this all along, and I’ve never hidden it from you.”
