I Don't Like The World, I Only Like You

Chapter 8: This is what it feel like to quarrel with a Male Capricorn

001

Once, when we were still students, Mr. F and I got into a squabble. Although I am unable to recall the reason of the quarrel, we ended up intentionally ignoring each other for a long period of time. During the summer break, the class representative called me and asked me to contact Mr. F as he was organizing a birthday celebration for our form teacher.

I hesitantly agreed, and dialed Mr. F's number with great difficulty. As his mobile was switched off, I was left with no choice but to dial his home number. His mother picked up the phone and informed me that Mr. F wasn't at home as he was in Shanghai for a holiday.

A few days before school reopened, Mr. F suddenly called me and asked me why I had called him previously.

It had been more than a month since I called him – this fellow's reaction time is crazily long! It suddenly struck me that previously, when his mother picked up the phone, she hadn't asked for my name. Thus, I asked Mr. F how he knew that I was the one who called him.

He said, "My mum mentioned that the caller was a female, and you happen to be the only girl who knows my home number."

A sudden sense of elation washed over me , and a big grin formed on my face. The next day, I even tried to ingratiate myself by taking the initiative to purchase breakfast for him – and yet, this fellow still had no idea what happened.

Ah, I'm truly a woman with no principles.

Angering a Male Capricorn is actually very terrifying – they will not shout or yell at you, but they will use a complete set of cold tacit violence against you and throw you to the North Pole.

The evidence for such a proposition can be seen in the four-year-long cold war that he raged against me. Subsequently, I asked him, "Mr. F, how did you ever manage to harden your heart in order to ignore me for so long?"

He snorted coldly, "If I forgive you too easily, you won't learn your lesson."

"Do you know how terrible I felt?"

He sighed, "I didn't have an easy time either."

In the office, a colleague (male) was sharing the correct steps to be taken when one quarrels with one's girlfriend.

First step: Shut up. No matter what your girlfriend says, you should not retort or rebutt her; a lack of forbearance upsets great plans. If you're unable to control yourself and start quarreling with her, you would encounter even more trouble subsequently.

Second step: Apologize and admit fault. Do not ask why, just take the initiative to apologize.

Final step: Hug and confess. You must hug the other party extremely tightly, look the other party straight in the eyes, and use the most sincere tone that you have ever used in your entire life to say, "I'm sorry, and I love you."

I sat at the side, taking notes silently. My colleague asked me whether I was taking notes to show my husband in order to help him learn how to react when we quarrel. I shook my head, and said no – it's for my own learning purposes, so that I know how to coax the Male Capricorn at home.

I told Mr. F, "Mr. F, sometimes I truly feel that our genders might have been switched."

"Oh?"

"Really! Compared to you, my personality is more similar to a guy's."

"Why do you think so?"
