"I've already done it."
A man's deep and magnetic voice came from beside him, it was too familiar, too familiar to continue to ignore, so Yan Zhengqi had to raise his head to meet Gu Yuanzhou's gaze. The silent communication between the two men was filled with repulsive emotions and sparks flew everywhere.
Wen Ying said to Gu Yuanzhou: "Can I trouble President Gu to go out first?"
Gu Yuanzhou hesitated for a moment, then said: "Okay." Before he left, he drew the curtain between the two beds. It was already late, and the old lady in the next bed had already laid down, probably finally tired, resting with her eyes closed.
After looking at each other and being silent for a while, Wen Ying said: "I am going to hand in my resignation letter after I am discharged from the hospital."
He was taken aback, "If it's because of me..."
"There are reasons for you, and there are other reasons." She said, "In Yan's, I was able to get the best position from the very beginning, but I was also subject to a lot of constraints. I had a comprehensive consideration early on and thought it was not Not for me. It’s just that this is your company and you’re here, so I didn’t think about quitting.”
There is a message in her words, she stayed here because he was in this company, but now the reason has disappeared, so it can only be—
"Are you really going to get a divorce?" His voice became hoarse when he said it for a moment.
She fell silent.
The two had experienced a quarrel, a car accident, and were exhausted by this time. She didn't want to make trouble anymore, she just said in a trance: "When the high beam of the truck pierced my eyes, I was thinking that the last moment of my life should not be so embarrassing. I never thought about getting divorced and starting over again, but now At that time, I finally realized how much time I wasted, I always wanted to try again, walk down with you, not willing to give you up to other women... "
"Jealousy makes me not like me, nor like the Wen Ying you love."
Yan Zhengqi wanted to shake her hand, shook his head and said, "It's not your problem, it's me—" He was inexplicably sour, what right did he have to blame her attitude, thinking that she was implicating innocent people, that she was the one who was raped? A manifestation of the assimilation of the wealthy circle
Her self-blame made him extremely uncomfortable, as if a ball of cotton was stuffed in his throat, it was difficult for him to speak.
He suddenly remembered what Aunt Zhang had said to him.
"Every time my wife finishes arguing with you, she will remember to remind you not to drive, because she is afraid that something will happen to you when you are angry. If you are not always thinking about you and caring about you, who would do this?"
She has always done a good job, but in contrast to him, after driving her away, he only cared about himself in a daze, but he never worried about her safety until he received a call about her accident.
He couldn't imagine that if she really had an accident because of this, and the last meeting between the two turned out to be a quarrel, he even went crazy and wanted to treat her... Fear and regret came to him like a tide, almost drowning him.
"It doesn't matter whose problem it is."
She looked at him, and she said with a serious and pleading attitude: "Zhengqi, I'm really tired."
For a split second, he was shocked in his heart.
He understood what she meant, the two of them got married because of love, and she didn't want to make too much trouble when they were separated. She wants him to let her go.
Smoking is not allowed in the hospital, Yan Zheng went outside the hospital strangely. He was just lighting a cigarette when someone suddenly appeared next to him.
It was Gu Yuanzhou.
He glanced at the other party, the first time he saw this opponent who had been fighting since childhood, he didn't provoke him, but silently lowered his head and smoked.
Gu Yuanzhou didn't look at him either, but stood side by side with him in the cold wind, looked at the sparse traffic on the road and said, "She came to my appointment tonight and told me that our behavior has crossed the line, and we will be together in the future." It is best to avoid meeting in private."
Yan Zhengqi suddenly stopped what he was doing, his heart was beating rapidly.
She actually...
Thinking back to what he did to her, he took a sharp puff of cigarette, but was choked into the trachea, and coughed violently.
"It's a model of morality." Gu Yuanzhou smiled, "To be honest, people around us don't steal food outside. The husband and wife know each other well, and they play their own things, just be happy. I thought She is also like this, she was hurt in the marriage, and she wanted to find comfort outside. Even so, I can’t blame her, after all, I noticed it very early, let it happen, and even used a little trick subjectively.” He Then he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. For men, this is the best way to relieve stress.
"If you want to hit me now, I don't have to fight back." He said.
Yan Zhengqi's already clenched fist did not swing out in the end.
How about a fight
He has gradually understood that the biggest problem is not Gu Yuanzhou, let alone her, but himself. If he could make her feel at ease and advance and retreat with her, Gu Yuanzhou would not be able to intervene even if he wanted to.
Gu Yuanzhou was a little surprised by his sudden change, but he only said: "Sensibility and sensibility have always been opposites, but this woman is both sensual and rational. You have not been smart since you were young, but your luck has always been good."
"It's because I have good eyesight." Yan Zhengqi glanced at him lightly, then lowered his eyelids again, "It's just..."
"Although I have never been married, I also know how much pressure a family like ours has on ordinary families." Gu Yuanzhou said in a trance in the smoke, "This pressure is the same for us. As wives With the bond between parents and even the whole family, once the choice is wrong, the balance of marriage and family will collapse, and divorce will happen sooner or later."
"So you never got married?"
"It's better than you. Married her but don't know how to treat her." He smiled, "Your behavior is like seeing a beautiful flower on the side of the road and wanting to break it off and take it into your home, but You don't know how to raise her, so you can only watch her wither. If you want to get married, you should think about these things clearly before marriage. After all, marriage is different from falling in love, and it is a relatively cautious thing." He patted him on the shoulder, "You Dare to go into battle naked, I admire you."
Yan Zhengqi wanted to laugh at him as he did in the past, but he couldn't laugh no matter what, so he could only smother the cigarette butt.
Wen Ying didn't want a divorce from the beginning.
Of course, if she wanted to, she had many ways to save the marriage. She can pretend not to care in front of Yan Zhengqi, can treat him well, satisfy his self-esteem, and do all kinds of small actions to let him experience the warmth of family. Wait for him to fall in love with her quickly, and then use a way he doesn't hate to make him the most perfect husband step by step...
Such a process obviously requires her to lower her profile first. A "smart" woman may be able to achieve this balance, but she is unwilling to do so.
Divorce is also not the first choice to solve things.
It's not right to marry one person, get a divorce, it's not right to marry another person, get a divorce. People who want to make a clean break at the beginning and reshuffle the cards, thinking that they can lead a happy life after being overthrown, actually usually lead their lives in a mess.
Because they haven't tried how to deal with bad situations, they don't know what to do when they encounter such a situation, the only way is to start all over again, and if they do it again, they will still be easily knocked down by unsatisfactory life.
Wen Ying is indeed curious about married life, so she chose to act according to the character of the original owner, and still maintain this kind of life, trying to make some changes in the process, trying to wake up that man, but she came to this world, always It is to complete the task, not to live, so she also planted the foreshadowing of separation.
She made two preparations.
Facts have proved that they may not be suitable for entering a marriage. The sweetness in love is because there is no burden. When they encounter various practical problems, the two deal with them in very different ways. What their respective living environment taught them, what their parents taught them, and what was determined by their natural part of their personality all made them drift away.
The appearance of Shen Ye is inevitable, she has some qualities that are loved by the original owner, but she is not completely similar to her.
In the same way, if the original owner and Gu Yuanzhou met and intersected, then for her, Gu Yuanzhou's existence is like a lamp that Guiren sees at night. Resisting warmth. But she will eventually stop because of reason.
Once again, she put aside the aggressiveness of the original owner and did not deal with Shen Ye. The conflict no longer escalated to the point of igniting. There were countless chances that she and Yan Zhengqi could get together, but in the end it was still like the situation on the table. The two balls of the ball rushed to two different directions after a touch. Sometimes the problem will not be solved with the resolution of a contradiction. When they face a new contradiction again, there may still be different choices that cannot come together.
Resignation and divorce procedures will take some time, but separation can be implemented immediately.
Wen Ying returned to the villa to pack her luggage, and Gu Yuanzhou also helped her carry her luggage, acting as a pure porter, without saying anything to irritate Yan Zhengqi.
After everything was packed, Gu Yuanzhou consciously went back to the car and waited for her.
She was about to leave, but when she turned her head, she saw the man standing alone in the hall, her gaze fell on her motionless, she stared at the spot for a long time, and couldn't help but turn around and walk in front of him, hugging him on tiptoe.
They've been together for six years, and she loves this man, even when he's left her covered in bruises.
The most familiar aura came from him, and she couldn't help but say: "I won't be here in the future, you have to take good care of yourself, don't get angry."
"You need to keep in touch with your family. Your parents have always treated you very well. Don't wait until they get old to regret it."
His head was buried in her shoulder, as if hot tears flowed into her shoulder socket.
All the pride fell apart at the moment of parting.
"I was wrong," he said, "I was wrong, don't go."
She suppressed her emotions and said: "... If you meet a girl you like again, treat her well, and remember to communicate if you have conflicts. You have to ask her if she would rather be protected by you or fight side by side with you. Don't think so It's good for her, you know?"
He didn't speak, just hugged her and tightened his arms.
"I always thought we could go on." She said in a low voice, "Actually, it's not all your problem. I also have my shortcomings. It's not that I didn't realize it during your most painful period. It's just that I was too focused on the development of my career. Don't blame yourself too much, and don't be afraid to start your next marriage. There will be someone more suitable for you in the future... "
He rubbed against her shoulder and shook his head, "No more, no more."
"I am leaving."
She finally said, "Let it go."
His eyes were red, and the strength on his arm slowly relaxed, allowing her to leave his arms, and took a step back.
Wen Ying's gaze suddenly landed on his wrist. It was the watch she gave him. It was brand new and contained elements of youthful vigor. It also had a little more charm than ordinary styles aimed at young people. very proportionate.
She smiled. "I knew it when I bought it. It's for you."
He couldn't stop nodding and smiling at her.
Yan Zhengqi finally watched her leave in a car, drive out of the villa's alley, drive out of her own world, and gradually disappear.
