Chapter 100: If Life Is Only as First Seen

Chen Qingdong hesitated.

If you look at it rationally, Li Xiaolu's appearance, figure and other conditions are no worse than Zhang Meng, but her education is much higher than that of Zhang Meng, who graduated from the teacher's college, and Li Xiaolu works in the provincial newspaper Huaihai Evening News, and her development prospects are much better than Zhang Meng, who teaches in Liulin County No. 1 Middle School, as for her family background, Zhang Meng can't compare with Li Xiaolu.

Especially Chen Qingdong now wants to make a difference in his career, so he directly enters the provincial newspaper or TV station to work, coupled with the help of Li Xiaolu's family, compared to him climbing up step by step from a small township in Liulin County and still can't see the future, I don't know how much faster and safer. And Zhang Meng's family not only couldn't help him in his career, but even looked down on him and didn't want him to marry his daughter.

What's more, now that Li Xiaolu is chasing Chen Qingdong, he doesn't need to make any effort at all, beauty, future and even money are at his fingertips!

For Chen Qingdong, abandoning Zhang Meng and choosing Li Xiaolu seems to be a matter that doesn't need much consideration, this is definitely a pie that is almost impossible to refuse!

In addition to maybe having some guilt for Zhang Meng, maybe in the dead of night, the conscience will be a little uneasy, what else can you lose?

This in itself is a society that laughs at the poor and does not laugh at prostitutes, who cares about conscience? How much is a pound of conscience?!

Ma Li had already finished eating the grilled squid, gently shaking the bamboo skewer, and looked at Chen Qingdong with a playful smile. She had already heard about the very Qiong Yao-like love story between this seemingly interesting man and Li Xiaolu, so she was very interested in Chen Qingdong, and now she was more interested in how Chen Qingdong would answer Li Xiaolu.

Luo Xiaolou had also finished going to the toilet and walked back at this time, but when he was about to walk to their table, Ma Li glanced at Luo Xiaolou, Luo Xiaolou looked at Chen Qingdong and Li Xiaolu who were facing each other in a stalemate, as if he had guessed what was going on, so he stood there and looked at them with a playful smile.

In this very short period of time, Chen Qingdong thought about a lot of things, the tragic life of the previous life, now in the township because of Wei Hailong's disappointment, can only find another way, a high-achieving student who graduated from the Department of Literature, but has to bother to engage in a farm, and there is no background in the officialdom, the future career path, I don't know how many twists and turns, even after nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties, it may not be possible to obtain the true scriptures.

If you choose Li Xiaolu, you will be able to enter a unit like the provincial newspaper and do your own professional writing work, with such a high starting point, maybe it won't take a few years to rise step by step......

But I knew about this kind of thing when I was in college! Why did I reject Li Xiaolu without hesitation at that time? Was it because I didn't like her? Was it because I thought she wasn't beautiful enough, her figure was not good enough, and her personality was not suitable?

Probably neither.

But, what is the reason for that?

Chen Qingdong thought about the pros and cons of this matter in his mind, but in the end, he suddenly found out with some fear and sadness that he had thought about all the good things after marrying Li Xiaolu, but he didn't think about it at all, whether his marriage to Li Xiaolu was about love.

In fact, Chen Qingdong also knows that he has experienced so much, and he is no longer a petty bourgeois man who likes to be sad and sad, and love no longer seems to be so important to his life and ideals...... What do you want most now? Who can help you rise to a higher level? Of course, it's Li Xiaolu!

Although all he thinks about in his mind are rational things, in the depths of Chen Qingdong's heart, there is a weak voice that has been gently telling him that there are some things that should be adhered to, even if this thing is not worth mentioning to others, but for himself, he still has to stick to it, just like he rejected Li Xiaolu's confession without hesitation, it has nothing to do with right or wrong, and it has nothing to do with pros and cons.

Because these things are his roots, and it is precisely because he has always hidden and guarded these things in his heart that Chen Qingdong is Chen Qingdong.

And Li Xiaolu's confession of affection for herself today is because she has a prominent background in her position? Obviously not, what Li Xiaolu values is love, which is also the foundation of Li Xiaolu.

Chen Qingdong breathed a sigh of relief, he knew what he should do, maybe one day in the future he would regret his decision because of today, but he had to do it.

Chen Qingdong raised his wine glass, smiled lightly at Li Xiaolu, and said, "Forget it, Xiaolu, the previous things are over, come, let's have a drink." ”

Li Xiaolu's eyes immediately flashed a trace of disappointment that could not be concealed, she smiled bitterly and lowered her head slightly.

In the same man, a girl confessed to him twice in such a disregard for reserve, but was ruthlessly rejected twice.

Was it because she wasn't good enough? She never thought so, she was absolutely confident in herself.

However, why did Chen Qingdong reject himself again and again?

Soon, her eyes were moist.

Do you really love Chen Qingdong? she asked herself.

Yes. This is the answer from the heart.

But what do you love about Chen Qingdong? Is it his handsomeness, his talent, or his frankness?

She didn't know, maybe she loved all of him, or perhaps, what she loved was just a fairytale dream she had when she was young, and Chen Qingdong was just a true refraction of this dream, Chen Qingdong finally rejected his love, which was a cruel but perfect end to the flawless love he longed for.

Maybe that's the best ending?

Because she herself doesn't know if she can continue to do this fairytale dream forever once Chen Qingdong agrees to her confession.

Perhaps, this is the best ending!

At least, he'll be a man who can make me dream whenever I want, she thought.

If life is only as it first sees, the person I love will always be twenty-one years old.

Li Xiaolu laughed softly again, slowly raised her head, and saw that Chen Qingdong's eyes were already shining with tears, she also picked up the glass, touched it lightly with Chen Qingdong, made a crisp sound, and smiled: "Okay, cheers!"

Watching them drink the wine slowly, Ma Li smiled playfully, as bright as a lotus.

Luo Xiaolou winked at Ma Li, whistled leisurely, walked behind Chen Qingdong and patted him on the shoulder, then walked to his seat without saying anything and sat down, reached out and picked up a bottle of beer, handsomely bit it open with his teeth, and said to Chen Qingdong: "Brother, let's continue drinking!"
