I found a glass bottle, put a bunch of ginger flowers in it, broke open half an aspirin and threw it in.
It is said that aspirin can delay the withering of flowers, but what is going to wither will eventually wither. I am like a flower branch inserted in a bottle, but it is delayed by drugs, lingering on my last breath, and my life and death are uncertain.
After putting the vase away, I sat down opposite Qiao Yi.
"It's strange that you wake up at noon," I said.
"I have a troublesome person to meet today." He seemed impatient.
I sneered, "I think you are the real troublesome person. The boss is not young, and he is still squandering his youth like young people. If you have time, why don't you go see your wife."
He looked at me, wondering that I knew about it, but he didn't ask further.
He shrugged, "In the past, it was not good for couples to sit together and discuss divorce."
"Abandoning your wife and moving on, that's really ugly." I taunted him.
He raised an eyebrow, "You seem to be prejudiced against me?"
"Maybe it's just that you are not very objective with yourself." I said lightly.
"You really have a prejudice against me," Qiao Yi leaned on the sofa with a lazy attitude, "Do you think I'm sorry for Zheng Yijia?"
Zheng Yijia is Chen Erxin's cousin.
"Don't you think you are right for her? She had a miscarriage because of you, but you didn't even look at her!" I felt sorry for my cousin.
Qiao Yi finally dimmed, and he said, "We didn't even know she was pregnant at the time." He raised his head to look at me again, "Believe it or not, I was only doing it for her own good."
I snorted through my nose, "When everyone abandons their lover, they say, I'm doing it for your own good."
For your own good, for your own good, what a high-sounding reason, why didn't he ask the other party himself whether you are good or not.
My attitude was extremely bad, but Qiao Yi didn't get angry. He said slowly, "Originally there were four people in the Qiao family, my parents and my younger sister, but now I'm the only one left. The Qiao family is a vortex, gradually swallowing everyone up." , if she continues to stay, she will not be happy, I just want to let her live before it is too late."
I said, "Qiao's house is a whirlpool, you can get out and leave."
Zheng Yijia's family has a little foundation in the UK. When he gets there, he can start over. Why must he be entangled with Qiao Lang to death. If he is willing to leave now, Joram will not kill them all.
Qiao Yi smiled slightly, a little sad, "There are four people in my family. My father was in a car accident and was lying in the hospital, my mother committed suicide, and my sister went to a mental hospital. Can I still leave? Can I leave?"
I am speechless.
I didn't expect Qiao Lang's revenge to be so violent, and I didn't dare to ask what happened to Qiao's family.
Back in the room, trembling all over, I could only take painkillers.
The frequency of my taking medicine is getting faster and faster, my physical condition is already very bad, I have to leave Qiao's house as soon as possible.
Lying on the bed for a while, I woke up from the pain again, went to sleep after breakfast, and simply didn't eat, only at this time did I feel hunger in my stomach.
I don't know what else to eat in the kitchen.
I opened the door and walked out.
"You go talk to my lawyer and Qiao Lang about the distribution of the property. I can't make the decision." Qiao Yi's impatient voice was heard as soon as he got downstairs.
"My cousin agrees to divorce you, but she wants to see you."
— this voice? It's Chen Erxin!
Apparently Chen Erxin also saw me, his voice stopped abruptly, he stood up abruptly, looked at me with wide eyes, "Why are you here?"
It turns out that the troublesome person Qiao Yi wants to meet today is Chen Erxin!
Qiao Yi turned her head following Chen Erxin's line of sight, saw me, then looked at Chen Erxin again, a little surprised, "You two know each other?"
There was a third person present, and Chen Erxin also realized that he had lost his composure, so he sat back and said calmly, "He and I have been classmates for many years."
Qiao smiled inexplicably and didn't ask any more questions.
He continued the topic just now, "I won't meet her."
"Qiao Yiyou is too much, he just wants to talk to you face to face!" Chen Erxin was furious.
"The relationship between me and her is over, and there is nothing more to talk about. Please tell her that I am sorry for her and hope to be happy in the future."
"You have completely ruined her life's happiness!"
Qiao Yi didn't answer, his eyes looked away, and after a while he said calmly, "Even if I promise to see her, she may not be able to regain happiness."
Chen Erxin was really irritated by him now, he stepped forward and grabbed Qiao Yi by the collar and pulled him up from the sofa, his eyes almost burst into flames.
I hurried forward to stop him, "Chen Erxin, calm down!"
Chen Erxin let go of his hand angrily. Qiao Yi adjusted her clothes indifferently and sat down again.
"I don't think we have anything to talk about, Mr. Chen." Qiao Yi said.
Chen Erxin snorted coldly and ignored him.
Qiao Yi has already gone upstairs, only Chen Erxin and I are left in the living room.
He first asked me, "Why are you at Qiao's house? The phone is always turned off when I call you."
"I'm under house arrest here." I'm telling the truth.
"What?"
I had to say, "Do you still remember that boy named Leo?"
He nodded suspiciously, I don't know why I suddenly mentioned Leo.
"Leo is Qiao Lang, he won't let me open Qiao's house."
Chen Erxin was surprised.
He didn't know what happened to me in the past four years, but he obviously thought that Leo was in the past, and me and him were over.
Even I thought so myself.
"He is committing a crime, you should call the police!"
"Qiao's family is a gangster. He commits crimes every day." And I don't want to make a big fuss. If it gets out of hand, Pei and Qiao will not look good.
I myself don't want to be on the front page of the city's newspapers and be someone else's gossip.
"You leave with me." Chen Erxin came to pull me.
I smiled wryly, "Do you think all the bodyguards outside are blind? You don't need to go to the gate, you and I will all be beaten into pigs' heads."
"Are you going to let him treat you like this?"
I had no choice but to remain silent.
Chen Erxin finally left alone, he said he would find a way for me.
"I hope to go with you whenever I go back to England," he said.
I just laughed and couldn't respond in any way.
When Qiao Yi went downstairs to look for wine, I was sitting on the sofa in the living room in a daze.
He handed me a glass of brandy, "Louis XIII, fifty years older than you and me."
I took it and drank it slowly.
"Louis XIII, who is older than me, is gone, but I will continue to live." I said to him holding up an empty glass.
Qiao Yi smiled and sat down beside me, "Pei Jiyu, you are actually a very interesting person."
"If you feel like this, it can only mean that your life is too boring." I said.
I know I shouldn't be drinking, but I have nothing to do.
I am a caged bird with wings that cannot escape.
Qiao Yi held the wine glass, but never drank.
He asked me, "Do you also think I'm callous and hard-hearted?"
Before I could answer, he continued, "I really love Zheng Yijia, she has paid a lot for me, and I also know that she doesn't like the background of Qiao's family, so I thought about giving up inheriting Qiao's family and leaving with her. A peaceful and stable life. But when Joran comes back, I can’t leave like this. This is a war between us, I don’t allow myself to escape halfway, I will continue to entangle and fight with him until the day we fall into hell together.”
I didn't know what to say for a long while. Perhaps as Qiao Yi described, the Qiao family is a huge whirlpool, distorting and swallowing everyone involved in it.
It was the best ending for Zheng Yijia to escape unscathed.
I thought about it, and finally answered Qiao Yi's eight words: "Everyone has his own ambitions, and seeking benevolence will result in benevolence."
"Seeking benevolence and gaining benevolence." He repeated in a low voice, and finally raised his head with a smile, "It is indeed seeking benevolence to obtain benevolence, and I should be happy for it."
