After Surviving Death, I No Longer Believe in Love

Queena didn't come back until after eight o'clock, reeking of alcohol.

She threw the gift bag in her hand over and said arrogantly, "Take it. You've wanted it for a long time.

"It cost me more than two hundred dollars. By the way, I want that new Chanel bag. You haven't bought me a bag in two months.

"Also, I want to eat noodles tomorrow morning. You remember to cook it for me."

We had been together for six years, and I had carefully prepared three meals for her every day. She became a fussy eater because of me and didn't like the takeout at all.

I used to buy her a bag every month. After all those years, her closet should be full of bags.

But that wasn't the case. The bag I bought for her the day before would be returned by her the next day. As for where the refunded money went, I didn't know and never asked.

I always thought that since I gave it to her, it was her freedom to do whatever she wanted with it.

The gift bag rolled to my feet, revealing its contents.

It was a couple outfit.

I had always wanted to wear matching outfits with her, but she never wanted to.

On the contrary, if Fitch happened to wear the same color clothes as her, she would be happy all day long.

Now the couple outfit that I had always wanted was thrown at my feet by her like a handout.

I bent down to pick up the bag on the ground and put it on the coffee table.

"If you want to eat noodles, order takeout. I'm really busy now."

She showed impatience, "Is it because of what happened between Fitch and me that day when we were climbing the mountain? I have explained many times. You are still so petty! Fitch saved..."

"I know he saved your life. You've said it many times. I understand!"

"But why you're still being unreasonable? If I wanted to be with him, we would have been together a long time ago and I wouldn't be with you. Besides, you can't blame me for all that, right?"

She seemed to have been feeling wronged for a long time, and finally couldn't help but burst out, "Ida Bell's boyfriend bought her a house, a car, and a few large diamond rings. What about you?

"Even Fitch also knows how to comfort me all night long when I'm sad. As my boyfriend, you only know to doubt me!"

If it were in the past, when I listened to that, I would have seriously reflected on my shortcomings just as she wanted, then put aside my self-esteem to coax her, and given everything I had to make her happy and satisfied.

But now, I really didn't care at all.

An ungrateful person would never be satisfied no matter how well I treated her.

Over the years, when we traveled, she wanted the best of everything. After five years, I had spent at least 700,000 or 800,000 dollars on her.

I had to buy a bag and other things for her every one or two months, and she never went to work.

Her brother asked me for money every now and then, and I had never refused.

That all was worth more than one house.

I never really argued with her about those things just because I loved her.

Now, I just wanted to stop loss in time. It was not too late.

"I'm really busy right now. If you're hungry, just order some takeout. If you're tired, just take a good rest."

Those two days I was preparing my resume and looking for a new job.

I spoke in a cold tone, and she laughed in anger, "Harry Lee, I gave you a chance, but you didn't want it!"

I've become so accustomed to the familiar sound of her slamming the door that I didn't feel anything. I had even kind of predicted her movements.

After she left, I returned to the room and saw a resume on the desk.

When I graduated, I used that resume to apply for a programmer position at a big company and got accepted on the first try.

Queena said that I would be very busy and have no time to take care of her if I worked for the big company.

For her, I gave up the opportunity to work in the big company.

Over the years, I had been taking odd jobs and earning a lot of money, but it was common for me to not be able to sleep well for three or five days when I was very busy.

From time to time, I had to coax Queena. Once, she got so angry that she didn't let me work.

Not only did I fail to finish on time and not make any money, but I also had to compensate the other party for their losses and lost a long-term customer.

It was like working for a whole month in vain.

But she was still not satisfied.

I looked at the resume, and the thought suppressed in my heart when I graduated became strong again.

Maybe I should live for myself.

I made a new resume based on that one, and added a long list of cases I had handled over the years in the resume section.

By the time I finished typing the last word, the long page could hardly fit.

Looking at the results of the work, I laughed happily.

No matter what time, those things really made me confident.

The moment the email was sent, I felt relaxed. Then I started to feel sleepy, so I turned off the lights and went to sleep. But just as I was about to fall asleep, there was a rude knock on the door.
