Chapter 462 Difficulty in Choosing
At this time, Zhang Long was really happy after hearing Cuicui's words. He felt that Cuicui finally listened to him, which gave him a glimmer of hope. He had always longed to have a stable life with Cuicui, and the countryside was a good choice for him. There were beautiful natural scenery and simple folks there, where they could live a simple and happy life.
Zhang Long looked at Qi Tongwei, feeling somewhat dissatisfied. He felt that Qi Tongwei was too stubborn and selfish, only considering his own ideas, not Cuicui's feelings. "Tongwei, don't be so impulsive. Cuicui has a point. We can go to the countryside first and it won't be too late to leave if it's not suitable. You can't deny the countryside so arbitrarily." Zhang Long said.
Qi Tongwei became even angrier after hearing what Zhang Long said. He felt that Zhang Long was deliberately going against him and wanted to take Cuicui to the countryside to achieve his own goals. "Zhang Long, don't think I don't know what you are thinking. You just want to take Cuicui to the countryside and take her for yourself. I tell you, it's impossible!" Qi Tongwei said, glaring at Zhang Long.
Zhang Long was so angry at Qi Tongwei's words that his face turned red. He didn't expect Qi Tongwei to think of him like this. "Qi Tongwei, don't spit blood. I just think that the countryside may be a better choice for Cuicui. You only think about the prosperity and opportunities in the big city, but ignore Cuicui's feelings. She has just experienced so much hardship and needs a quiet place to recover." Zhang Long retorted.
The two of them fell into a fierce quarrel again, and the atmosphere became tense and depressing. Cuicui stood aside, watching them quarreling, her heart filled with helplessness and pain. She didn't expect that her proposal would cause such a big conflict.
"Stop arguing!" Cui Cui shouted, "I'm just making a suggestion, why are you arguing so much? Shouldn't we discuss it together and find a solution that is good for everyone?"
Qi Tongwei and Zhang Long fell silent after hearing Cuicui's words. They realized that their behavior was a bit too radical, and they shouldn't quarrel in front of Cuicui and make her worry.
Qi Tongwei took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He looked at Cuicui and said, "Cuicui, I didn't mean to quarrel with you. I'm just worried about your future. I think we should go to a big city, where there are more opportunities and resources, and we can create a better life for you."
Zhang Long also calmed down. He said, "Cuicui, I don't mean to quarrel with Tongwei. I just think the countryside has its advantages. We can live a simple and happy life there, away from the hustle and bustle of the city."
Cuicui looked at them, feeling very conflicted. She knew they were all doing this for her own good, but she didn't know how to choose. She longed for the prosperity and opportunities of the big city, but also longed for the tranquility and simplicity of the countryside.
"Let me think about it again." Cui Cui said, "Let's not rush to make a decision. I'll tell you when I think it through."
Zhang Long saw Cuicui hesitated, and he couldn't help but feel anxious. He slammed the table and said loudly: "Cuicui, you must come with me to the countryside. The countryside has so many advantages. We can live a simple and happy life there, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Only in the countryside can you truly find peace and happiness."
Zhang Long's heart was in turmoil at this moment. He had always longed for a stable future with Cuicui, and in his opinion, the countryside was the ideal place to realize this wish. He imagined the days in the countryside, working from sunrise to sunset, managing a small farm with Cuicui, and living a plain and warm life. He felt that only in the countryside could Cuicui truly belong to him. This desire had expanded in his heart to an almost uncontrollable level. He even began to imagine the scene after Cuicui became pregnant with his child. At that time, Cuicui would stay in the countryside forever and form a family with him.
However, Qi Tongwei had already seen through Zhang Long's thoughts. He looked at Zhang Long angrily, his eyes full of disgust and vigilance. "Zhang Long, don't let your imagination run wild. I won't let Cuicui go to the countryside with you. I can see clearly your selfish intentions. You just want to trick Cuicui to the countryside, and then let her get pregnant with your child and stay there forever. You are so shameless. You are so old, and you still have such a perverted idea. Get the hell out!" Qi Tongwei cursed angrily.
Zhang Long was angered by Qi Tongwei's words. His face turned red and he retorted, "Qi Tongwei, don't spit blood at me. I really want to do good for Cuicui. The countryside is the best choice for her. You only think about the prosperity of the big city, but don't consider Cuicui's feelings. She has just experienced so much hardship and needs a quiet place to recover."
"A quiet place? Humph, you just want to take the opportunity to possess Cuicui. Do you think I don't know what you are thinking? You are just a selfish person." Qi Tongwei did not give in.
The two had another heated argument and the atmosphere became extremely tense.
"I'm selfish? What about you? Don't you want Cuicui to go to the big city for your own purposes? Do you think I don't know that you have other feelings for Cuicui?" Zhang Long glared at Qi Tongwei.
Qi Tongwei was speechless for a moment when Zhang Long touched his heart. But he quickly retorted: "My feelings for Cuicui are pure. I just want her to have a better future. And you, your purpose is not right."
"You're talking nonsense! I'm the one who really cares about Cuicui. Although life in the countryside is simple, it is full of warmth and happiness. Unlike big cities, it is full of indifference and competition." Zhang Long said loudly.
Cuicui stood aside, watching them quarreling, her heart filled with pain and helplessness. She didn't expect things to develop to this point. She originally just wanted to think carefully about her future choices, but she didn't expect to cause such a fierce conflict between them.
"Stop arguing!" Cui Cui shouted, "You won't solve the problem if you keep arguing like this. I haven't made a decision yet, why are you arguing so much about this matter?"
Zhang Long and Qi Tongwei fell silent after hearing Cuicui's words. They realized that their behavior was a bit too radical, and they shouldn't argue in front of Cuicui, making her more entangled and painful.
Qi Tongwei took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He looked at Cuicui and said, "Cuicui, don't listen to Zhang Long. The countryside is not a good choice. There are no development opportunities there, and the medical and educational conditions are not good. You will suffer if you go there. We should go to big cities, where there are more resources and opportunities, and we can create a better life for you."
