My name is Li Xiaofang, I am 25 years old this year, and I am an ordinary white-collar worker. Recently, my parents have been urging me to go on blind dates to get married more and more frequently, and I have to comply with their wishes and meet with my blind date once.
At 12 noon, I came to the blind date restaurant as promised. Zhang Wei had already arrived, standing at the door waiting for me. I went up to say hello: "Hello, I'm Li Xiaofang." He smiled and said, "Hello, hello, I'm Zhang Wei." ”
After we took our seats, Zhang Wei took the initiative to order a few dishes and helped me pull a chair, which was polite and thoughtful. I asked him, "Zhang Wei, I heard my mother say that you work in a foreign company?" He nodded and said, "Yes, I'm a programmer, and I mainly write some front-end code for websites. I think it's an easy job, and the salary is okay. ”
I said, "Wow, that sounds like a programmer! I'm just doing general marketing, making plans and running business every day." ”
"Marketing is also very important, and you need promoters to get your products into the market. Zhang Wei said with a smile.
"And what do you like to do after work?" I asked.
"I'm actually quite homely, I like to watch movies and play games at home. Of course, fitness and running will also go, and it is important to maintain good health. Zhang Wei said, "Otherwise, after we finish dinner later, we can go to the neighborhood and take a walk and chat." ”
After lunch, we took a stroll along the city's central garden. It's full of greenery and the air is good. We talked as we walked, from each other's family, work, and life Xi to our plans for the future. I found that Zhang Wei's ideas are very mature and he also has his own career plan. He said that he wants to start a business in the future, and if he meets the right person, he also wants to form a warm home.
When I heard Zhang Wei's future plans, I couldn't help but feel a little happy. Maybe we share the same values, which is important for a long-term relationship.
We strolled to a fountain pool, sat down on a stone bench and continued chatting. Zhang Wei looked at the pond and was distracted, and I asked him softly, "What are you thinking?"
When I heard Zhang Wei say this, my face was a little hot, but I still smiled and said, "Yes, it's like a movie, so our ending will definitely be good." ”
"Thank you, Xiaofang. I had a great time today. Zhang Wei looked at me seriously and said.
"Me too. I looked away a little embarrassed, "Shall we make an appointment later?"
"Of course, I'd love to get to know you further. But it's a little late today, why don't I take you home?" Zhang Wei stood up.
When I arrived at my door, Zhang Wei asked me: "I come here to play on the weekend, is it inconvenient for your family to let me stay overnight? ”
I thought about it and thought that Zhang Weiren was good, so I said, "I'll ask my mother to take a look." ”
I told my mother about today's situation, and she felt that Zhang Wei was stable and had a good job, so she agreed to let him stay overnight at our house.
On Saturday, Zhang Wei arrived as promised. I warmly welcomed him to a homely meal and took him around the neighborhood. At night I cleaned up my room for him to live in and went to sleep in the living room by myself.
In the middle of the night I suddenly felt thirsty and got up to pour water. Zhang Wei also woke up and chatted with me. We talked speculatively, and before we knew it, time passed. Zhang Wei said: "Xiaofang, I think we are very fateful, what do you say?"
"What's wrong, was I too proactive last night?" I asked, a little embarrassed.
"No, you're fine. Zhang Wei hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, I have something to hide from you, I already have a girlfriend." ”
"I'm sorry, Xiaofang, I shouldn't have hidden it from you. Zhang Wei said apologetically, "My girlfriend and I also have problems, it was impulsive last night, and I will be responsible." ”
I looked at Zhang Wei with tears streaming down my eyes, and my heart was like a knife. I asked him weakly, "So what is your relationship now, do you still love her?"
Zhang Wei sighed and said, "We are also in the Cold War, and the relationship is very stiff. But I didn't expect it to happen last night, I'm really sorry for you. ”
"So what are you going to do now? Do you really care about me, or is it a whim?" I asked with red eyes.
"Don't talk about it!" I interrupted him excitedly, "I've had enough, you can go!"
Seeing that I was emotional, Zhang Wei didn't say anything anymore, and silently packed up his things and left.
The moment the door closed, I finally broke down and cried. I felt like a marionette being toyed with, but I had to bear the pain.
When my mother heard the commotion, she ran over, hugged me and said, "Xiaofang, don't be sad, tell your mother what's wrong." ”
"Mom, I really regret it, if I could have stuck to my principles, none of this would have happened. I choked up.
"Don't blame yourself, what has happened cannot be changed, and the most important thing is to reflect on the lessons. "Mom lovingly stroked my hair.
I nodded, and my mother's words made me figure it out. Indeed, I should not make hasty decisions about my life because of social pressure, let alone go against myself. I want to take responsibility for my actions and rebuild my self-confidence and bottom line.
After that, I had a very low life, I couldn't get motivated at work, and I was criticized several times. When I was in a daze in the office, my colleague Xiao Li came to care about me, and I told her what happened.
Xiao Li was very sympathetic to my plight after hearing this, and she encouraged me and said, "Xiaofang, you are so good, don't be depressed for a scumbag." Love needs two people to maintain together, and you have done your best alone. ”
I nodded, and talking to Xiao Li made me feel better. I can't let a failed relationship drag my life down, I want to be as positive as I used to be.
So I remade my schedule, exercised and Xi new skills; Communicate more with family and friends to open your heart; I also signed up for community volunteer activities to make my life more fulfilling.
I also began to actively respond to my parents' urging to marry, but chose at my own pace and standards. I believe that love will come eventually, but that will take time and growth. The journey of life is still long, and I will continue to move forward step by step.
Time flies quickly, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye. My life is also gradually getting back on track, and my work is going smoothly and I am in a good mood.
One day, my mother excitedly said to me, "Xiaofang, do you remember your cousin? She introduced you to a colleague from her company, named Li Jianhua. My cousin said that he was very good and handsome, do you want to see him?"
I smiled and said, "Mom, I have a regular life now, and I'm not in a hurry to get married." But my cousin recommends it so much, so it doesn't hurt to meet and chat. ”
So with the help of my cousin, Li Jianhua and I made an appointment at the café. He dresses simply and unpretentiously, giving people a sunny and uplifting feeling. We talked about work, family, hobbies, etc., and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Li Jianhua said that he usually likes to exercise and often goes to the gym. He also invited me to go hiking on the weekend. I thought about it and thought it would be good to exercise, so I agreed.
On Saturday we set off for a hike in the countryside. The fresh air makes me feel refreshed. When we stopped on the top of the mountain, Li Jianhua said, "Xiaofang, I feel very lucky to meet you. During this time of getting along, you give me a good feeling. ”
I was a little embarrassed, but I also said bluntly: "Jianhua, I also think that you are very sincere, and I feel happy and relaxed with you." ”
"Can you give me a chance to take our relationship one step further?" Li Jianhua looked at me seriously and said.
I was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, I want to try to be with you." ”
Since then, Li Jianhua and I have started a sweet relationship. We share common interests in life, and our philosophies are very compatible. He would cheer me up when I was busy at work and accompany me on outings to relax. I also prepare healthy lunches for him and go to the supermarket to buy them together.
Half a year later, Li Jianhua's birthday came. He invited me to his house for dinner and said he had something important to tell me.
After eating, Li Jianhua said to me solemnly: "Xiaofang, the relationship in the past six months is the happiest time in my life. I'm really lucky to have met you. Will you marry me?"
I looked at Li Jianhua's expectant eyes, and my heart was full of joy. I nodded and said, "I do!"
He happily put on my engagement ring. At this moment, I was suddenly very grateful for the episode that had happened that allowed me to grow up and meet such a reliable partner. I believe that together with Li Jianhua, we will be very happy in the future.
On the engagement night, I couldn't sleep with joy, and my mind was full of bits and pieces of Li Jianhua and my future.
"Thank you, Mom!" I happily said, "I've found true love, and you can rest assured in the future." ”
"By the way, I'll talk to him from your dad's side. You young people should develop freely in love. Mom said thoughtfully.
After hanging up the phone, I began to plan the wedding. I asked Li Jianhua to discuss the details, and he was very supportive of my idea.
"My dear, I don't care about the size of the wedding, let's just be casual. Li Jianhua said gently, "The most important thing is that you are happy." ”
So we set for early autumn and had a small wedding at the hotel on the banks of the Mother River. I put on an elegant wedding dress, exchanged vows with Li Jianhua, cut cakes, and took pictures. The atmosphere was warm and sweet.
In the cave room at night, Li Jianhua said to me affectionately: "Xiaofang, I will always love you and make you happy." ”
"Me too, I feel at ease with you. "I leaned into his arms.
After marriage, we lived a very plain but warm life. Li Jianhua has a stable job, and I have also been promoted in the company. We exercise together regularly and often invite friends over to our home.
One day, my mother suddenly called me to tell me that Zhang Wei's girlfriend had found her and said she wanted to see me.
I was a little surprised, but I went to the café with my mom anyway.
Zhang Wei's girlfriend Liu Yan looked very gentle, and she said to me directly: "Xiaofang, it was really Zhang Wei's fault at that time, and it has nothing to do with you." I've been haunted by this incident, and I want to apologize to my face. ”
I nodded and said, "This matter is long gone, I'm living well now, let's all look forward." ”
"Thank you for your leniency. Liu Yan said gratefully.
I suddenly felt that the pain I had once had turned to smoke and that I had found true happiness.
"Our baby is here. Li Jianhua looked at his daughter gently.
"Well, we'll give her the best life. I said.
"I will always love you mother and daughter. Li Jianhua squeezed my hand.
In the days to come, we will witness our daughter's growth together and experience more bits and pieces of life. I am very fortunate to have met Li Jianhua during the confused period, so that I have the happy life I have now. I will also work hard to manage this relationship and create a warm home with Li Jianhua.
When the child was more than a year old, Li Jianhua's company asked him to be sent to a branch abroad. I had a stable job and could stay in China, but I decided to follow Li Jianhua when I thought of separating the two places.
Before leaving, I confirmed with Li Jianhua: "My dear, I will go to the expatriate with you, and I may need to readjust to work over there." Do you think that's okay?"
Li Jianhua said firmly: "Xiaofang, you can rest assured that you will come with me." I will do my best to take care of you and your children, and I will never let you suffer. We need to be united as a family. ”
Hearing Li Jianhua's assurance, I was much more relieved. I believe that with his support, we can also get through the expatriate life.
The first days of coming to a new country were not easy. I don't speak well and I have trouble finding a job. Li Jianhua understands me very well, and every day when I come home from work, he will accompany me to practice my language, and he will also cheer me up when I am depressed.
"Husband, thank you for supporting me these days. I said gratefully.
"We're a family, and that's what I'm supposed to do. Li Jianhua said with a smile.
The days of expatriate have become no longer difficult because of the company of Li Jianhua. I've also gradually adapted to life here.
Three years later, Li Jianhua's expatriate ended, and we decided to return to China for development. I quit my job and discussed with Li Jianhua my plans for returning to China.
"My dear, where do we want to live when we return home?" Li Jianhua asked for my opinion.
I thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we go to the city, there are many opportunities there, and it is convenient for children to go to school." We can buy a bigger house. ”
"Well, I support your choice. Li Jianhua said with a smile.
After returning to China, Li Jianhua quickly found a new job. I'm also back in a business. In a new environment, we started a new life hand in hand.
Time flies, and our daughter Xiaofang is already in elementary school. She has excellent grades and a cheerful personality. Every time I attended a parent-teacher conference, the teacher praised Xiaofang for being a good child.
Watching our children grow up healthy and happy, Li Jianhua and I feel extremely gratified. This is also the result of the happiness we have obtained from working together for many years.
On the road of life, I was confused, but I finally found true love. Together with Li Jianhua, we have overcome all kinds of difficulties and are now happy. I am grateful that life has given me this precious fate. I am no longer afraid of the road ahead, because I have walked with you.
