Debt (3)

EndlessFantasy TranslationEndlessFantasy Translation Qi Lei gave a chilly smile as if he was looking at Qi Qiming like a funny clown. "How long are you going to keep thinking of me as a fool? My mother is dead, but do you think Id just do whatever you say without my mother protecting me?" Qi Lei asked. Qi Qimings eyes darkened instantly when Wang Qin was mentioned. "Qi Lei, I dont mean that." "Stop pretending already. Since were talking about our family, lets discuss things between us." Qi Lei felt disappointed. No matter how he acted like he did not care, he still could not help but feel sorrowful. He always knew that he was not important to Qi Qiming, and he felt like escaping every time he had to face this issue. Sometimes, he even doubted if he was actually Qi Qimings son. He then demanded as he gave Qi Qiming a sharp glance, "Am I really your son?" Qi Qimings heart sank when he heard the question, and he nodded. "Of course, your mother has only been with me, so who else could be your father?" He knew that although Wang Qin had someone she fancied before, her pride would not allow her to keep in contact with that person after she was married to Qi Qiming, and the only man she had ever been with was only Qi Qiming. Qi Qiming was afraid to tell Qi Lei that Wang Qin got pregnant with him because Qi Qiming had forced her Perhaps, from then onwards, he felt a little different towards both of them. If Wang Qin had been slightly gentler to him or at least respected him as a man, he might still have been able to treat her kindly, and maybe she would not have passed away so early. However, she had never prioritized Qi Qiming because her heart was already dead from the day she married him. Why would Qi Qiming care about a woman who did not love him? "Do you hate my mother? And is that why you hate me too?" Qi Lei continued with his questions. "Of course not" Qi Qiming answered instantly. "No? But everything you did was enough for us to hate you. Why do you have to push your wife and son into a corner? Do you know that I really dont like you? I thoroughly hate you. Im a realist who will treat you however you treat me." Qi Qiming took a deep breath and went to the pantry corner to grab himself a glass of water. He took several sips before sitting down again. "You werent even there when my mother died. She was your wife and your sons mother, yet you didnt even see her for the very last time. Youve never given her happiness. My mother was worried that no one else would help me when she was on the verge of dying, so she grabbed Xi Xiayes hands and asked her to take care of me. Xi Xiaye promised my mother that Mu Yuchen and her would treat me like their younger brother, and until today, theyre keeping their promise." Qi Qiming had no idea about that, so he was not sure what to say at this moment. "I dont know whats family kinship, but I know whats good, and they look good to me. Compared to my so-called family who is always plotting something behind my back, I feel much superior to all of you. I can understand why youd want to transfer me externally, but Im telling you now that I wont leave this city" Qi Lei slowly got up. He put his palms on the table and stared at Qi Qiming right in the eyes. "Because Ill have nothing left once I leave here. Ill lose everything that I care about. I have nothing to lose anymore. I dont want to lose these feelings and memories too. I dont think I have a family anymore, so I dont want to lose my friendship. If youre forcing me to make a choice, Id choose them over you right away!" Qi Qimings expression looked terrible and his face darkened instantly. "What did you say?" His breath got shorter as he clenched his fists. Qi Lei stood up straight and flipped through the document again before throwing it back onto Qi Qimings table. "Did I not make myself clear enough? I wont leave City Z. If youre forcing me to make a choice, Ill choose to stand on Mu Yuchens side. Ill do so even if you force me out of Qi Kai. Getting angry now? I dont care how you look at me. At least, with them, I can feel the warmth that youll never be able to give me." Qi Lei took a deep breath as he pushed the chair behind him away. "This document is invalid from this point onwards. Ill leave it to you." He then walked towards the door "Come back here! Im your father. Its not up to you to decide whether were related or not! If you really do that, I wont call you my son ever again!" Qi Qiming yelled at him. Qi Lei halted his steps instantly with a bitter smile on his face. He took a deep breath and replied without even turning over, "Finally, you said it. You mustve been longing for this moment, havent you?" "Whatever! I always knew that I wasnt important to you. Do you understand about friends whove been through a lot with you? Or about kinship? You dont understand any of them! Without me, you still have your other amazing son with you, but if I lose these, Ill have nothing left!" Qi Lei soon disappeared out of the door.
