Chapter 465 Staying together through thick and thin

Cuicui and Zhang Long also raised their glasses and clinked them with Qi Tongwei. Cuicui said, "Brother Tongwei, Brother Long, I know you are all doing this for my own good. I will also think carefully about my future and make the right choice."

Zhang Long said: "Tongwei, Cuicui is right. We can no longer force her to make a choice. We should respect her decision and let her find happiness on her own."

Qi Tongwei nodded and said, "That's right, we have to believe in Cuicui. She is a strong and brave girl, and she will definitely find her own happiness."

They ate and talked about their past experiences and future plans. In the process, their relationship gradually eased and was no longer as tense and confrontational as before.

After three rounds of wine and five kinds of dishes, their mood became more relaxed. Qi Tongwei looked at Cuicui and Zhang Long, his heart full of emotion. He knew that their future was full of uncertainty, but he also believed that as long as they united and supported each other, they would be able to overcome all difficulties.

In this small restaurant, they used food and wine to resolve conflicts and found mutual understanding and trust. They knew that no matter how difficult the road ahead would be, they would not be alone because they had each other's company and support.

However, Zhang Long finally couldn't sit still anymore. He slammed the table and said loudly: "We can't just let this go. Cuicui must be sent back to the countryside. The countryside is the right place for her. There is a peaceful life there, without the hustle and bustle and complexity of the city."

Qi Tongwei frowned and said in a deep voice: "It's time to eat now, we shouldn't talk about these things. We finally got together, can't we just enjoy this meal?"

Zhang Long took the lead and said excitedly, "No, this matter must be made clear now. Cuicui can't stay in the city. The city is too dangerous for her. Besides, she can live a stable life in the countryside. I can take care of her."

Qi Tongwei was also a little angry and retorted: "You are selfish. You only consider yourself and don't consider Cuicui's feelings. Cuicui has the right to choose her own life. She may not want to go back to the countryside."

The two of them were once again in a heated argument, their voices growing louder and louder, as if they had returned to their previous state of tension and confrontation.

Cuicui sat aside, watching them quarrel, feeling helpless and painful. She didn't know what to do. She didn't want to disappoint Zhang Long, nor did she want to disappoint Qi Tongwei's expectations. She felt that she was trapped in an inescapable dilemma.

Zhang Long became more and more excited as he spoke. He recalled the days when they searched for Cuicui together. During those difficult times, they supported each other and faced difficulties together. He said: "We have been through so much together. My feelings for Cuicui are real. I just want her to live a good life, and the countryside is the best choice."

Qi Tongwei did not back down. He said: "You can't force Cuicui just because of your own ideas. Although the city is dangerous, it also has opportunities. Cuicui can realize her dreams and find her own value in the city."

Their quarrel caused other people in the restaurant to look at them strangely, but they didn't care. They all felt that they were doing it for Cuicui's good, and they were unwilling to give in.

During the quarrel, they recalled the past. The days when they searched for Cuicui together were full of hardships and setbacks. They had run in the wind and rain, groped in the dark, just to find Cuicui. They had also faced countless difficulties and challenges, but they never gave up.

However, now they are arguing over Cuicui's future. These past memories make their feelings more complicated and their arguments more intense.

Zhang Long said: "When we were in the countryside, although life was hard, we were very happy. We could farm and raise chickens together and live a simple and happy life. Cuicui could find her true self in the countryside."

Qi Tongwei said: "Although rural life is simple, it is also very backward. Cuicui can get in touch with more people and things in the city and broaden her horizons. She should not be confined to the countryside."

Their quarrel seemed to have no end, and Cuicui looked at them with tears in her eyes. She felt that she was the root cause of their quarrel, and she didn't want to see them quarreling because of her.

At this time, the restaurant owner came over. He was a kind middle-aged man. He looked at Zhang Long and Qi Tongwei and said with a smile: "Young people, stop arguing. Is there anything that can't be discussed properly? Your quarreling will only make things worse."

Zhang Long and Qi Tongwei fell silent after hearing what the boss said. They realized that their behavior was a bit too radical and they shouldn't have quarreled in the restaurant and made others laugh at them.

The boss continued, "I can see that you are all doing this for the girl's own good. But you also have to consider her feelings. She has her own ideas and choices, and you can't force her."

Cuicui looked at the boss gratefully. She felt that what the boss said made sense. She wiped her tears and said, "Tong Weige, Longge, please stop arguing. I know you are all doing this for my own good, but I really don't know how to choose. I yearn for the prosperity of the city, but I can't bear to leave the tranquility of the countryside. I need time to think."

Zhang Long and Qi Tongwei felt a little guilty after hearing Cuicui's words. They knew that they were too impulsive and did not consider Cuicui's feelings. They looked at each other and nodded.

Zhang Long said, "Cuicui, I'm sorry, I shouldn't be so impulsive. I was just too worried about you. You're right, you need time to think. We shouldn't force you to make a choice."

Qi Tongwei also said: "Cuicui, we are doing this for your own good. But we will respect your decision and support you wherever you choose to go."

Cuicui looked at them and her heart was filled with emotion.

She knew they all meant well for her, and she didn't want to disappoint them.

At this time, she thought of Gao Xiaoqin, but was rejected by Qi Tongwei on the spot.

Cuicui was full of curiosity about Gao Xiaoqin. Although Qi Tongwei tried to dissuade her, she always felt that there was something about Gao Xiaoqin, who was called a "woman of the dust", that attracted her. She did not believe that Gao Xiaoqin was just as unbearable as Qi Tongwei said.

"Tong Wei Ge, I don't understand why you don't let me go find Sister Gao Xiaoqin? I think she must have her own story. Maybe she can give me some advice and help me make a choice." Cuicui's eyes were full of stubbornness.
