"Can you give me that villa in the northern suburbs?"
Zhou Yanjing paused for a moment while holding the cigarette in his hand. In the dark night, his tone was unclear: "Why do you want that villa?"
"Because it's valuable." Lin Yuxi said rationally, "I haven't lived in any other houses like yours, only this one and that one in the northern suburbs."
Zhou Yanjing lowered his head and took a puff of cigarette. The smoke he exhaled appeared bluish white in the cold air: "You want something valuable. This set is more valuable than the one in the northern suburbs."
In terms of value alone, the wedding house in Songyun Bay is more than three times the price of the one in the northern suburbs.
"This is the wedding house your parents bought for you. You can still use it in the future."
"Do you think I will still live in this house when I get married?"
Also, Jiang Nan may not be willing to live in the wedding room she used.
"I don't want it either." Lin Yuxi said, "You can live wherever you like. It has nothing to do with me. Just give me the one in the northern suburbs."
"What are you doing here?" Zhou Yanjing asked again.
"Can't you sell it for money?"
Zhou Yanjing said: "If you want money, wouldn't it be easier to just ask for cash?"
Lin Yuxi was a little annoyed. She asked her to make a request, but when she made it, she pushed back and forth.
"If you don't want to give it, just say so."
"The property management fee there is not cheap. Can you afford it with your salary?" Zhou Yanjing slowly raised his eyelids, "And I also like that house quite a lot. It's suitable for winter vacation. The snow scenery there is nice."
So does he plan to take Jiang Nan there for vacation in the future?
Lin Yuxi thought that she had endured all the torture she deserved. Even if she committed murder and set fire in her previous life, she would still be punished enough in this life.
She thought she could accept the divorce peacefully, but Zhou Yanjing easily stabbed her in the heart again.
It was already the beginning of winter, and it was already so cold outside that people wanted to shiver, but her eyes were very hot. The transparent mist spread over each layer, and it took a lot of effort not to fall down.
She pursed her lips and tightened her voice, but still couldn't control the vibrato at the end: "If you want to see snow, you can see it anywhere. You can take her to Iceland. The road conditions in the northern suburbs are not good. The road is blocked by snow for a long time, which is inconvenient."
Zhou Yanjing chuckled with unknown meaning.
"Do you really think that road closure lasted a month?"
Having finished smoking a cigarette, he pressed the cigarette butt into a potted plant at the door. "No matter how bad the political situation in Lincheng is, an important provincial road will not be closed for a month."
Lin Yuxi was stunned, a round tear was about to fall, hanging tremblingly on her lower eyelashes.
"What did you say?"
Zhou Yanjing didn't answer, didn't look at her, turned around and opened the car door.
"Tomorrow, let Yang Kang make a form of the properties in my name and send it to you. You can choose whichever one you want. Don't even think about the one in the northern suburbs."
He got into the car and the Bentley turned around and drove out of the yard. Lin Yuxi subconsciously took two steps after him, wanting to ask what he meant just now.
During that month in the northern suburbs, she never doubted Zhou Yanjing's words.
He said the road was not open yet and the food was delivered by drones from nearby communities.
He said that the municipal government is a bunch of idiots who only eat but don't work. Maybe they won't be able to repair it until the snow melts in spring next year.
He said it was not bad now, how about the two of us living in seclusion here for the rest of our lives.
Were they all meant to trick her?
Did you tell those lies just to spend a few more days with her?
In those days in the northern suburbs, she wasn't the only one who fell into wishful thinking. He also fell into it, right? Even if it's just for a moment.
These questions were like a ruthless iron hand, grasping Lin Yuxi's heart and ravaging it.
The remaining sanity forced her to stop and stop chasing.
The Bentley's taillights disappeared into the night, and the cold wind blew across her cheeks. Tears burst out of Lin Yuxi's eyes at that moment.
Why tell her?
Why let her know this now?
It would only make her feel more pathetic.
Every bit of Zhou Yanjing's love for her in the past was like a knife thrust into her heart.
I can't move it or pull it out, and it hurts like hell every time I touch it.
She would rather stay in the dark forever and not know that Zhou Yanjing had worked hard for her.
Mrs. Chen heard the sound of cars and voices outside, but no one came in. She opened the door strangely, only to see Lin Yuxi standing alone in the desolate night, sobbing.
"What's going on? Why are you standing here alone blowing the cold wind? What if you have a fever again!" Mrs. Chen was extremely anxious, "Where is the second young master? Didn't he come back with you?"
Lin Yuxi said nothing and walked back to the room on the second floor step by step, holding on to the wooden staircase handrail.
She didn't have the strength to take a shower. She didn't even take off the clothes she had been wearing all day. She wrapped herself tightly in a quilt and fell asleep in a daze.
When she woke up the next morning, Lin Yuxi's eyes were swollen.
After applying hot eggs for a while, the effect was minimal. When she went out to work, Mrs. Chen was sweeping the floor in the yard, complaining naggingly:
"Who is so unqualified that he leaves so many cigarette butts in front of other people's homes?"
In the afternoon, Yang Kang sent an electronic form to Lin Yuxi's mailbox.
Zhou Yanjing has a lot of real estate under his name. In addition to Lincheng, there are also properties in other cities at home and abroad, including New York, which are listed densely on several pages.
Yang Kang recommended to her over the phone several houses in Lincheng with good surroundings. They were all decorated and ready to move in. The prices were beyond what she could afford even after working as a doctor for two lifetimes.
If necessary, you can accompany her to see the environment on the spot at any time. She only needs to pick a set that she likes, and he will prepare all the materials and handle the transfer directly.
Lin Yuxi was going to the ward at that time, hung up the phone, and stood in the corridor of the hospital suddenly stunned, forgetting where she was going.
Tan Xingchen's head popped out from behind her.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Lin Yuxi saw her and remembered that she was going to the ward to see a patient.
She walked towards the ward, followed by Tan Xingchen's wheelchair.
"What's wrong with your eyes? Have you cried? Did you have a fight yesterday? Or is your husband bullying you again?"
Lin Yuxi's white coat is always clean and tidy. Her expression is calm and there is no trace of sadness: "Are you from the Intelligence Bureau?"
"I'm just an ordinary disciple of the Bagua Sect."
Tan Xingchen had more questions than a hundred thousand whys: "Did your husband call you just now? What did he want to transfer to you? A house? How many houses did you want? Are you really going to divorce?"
Xiao Cui, who happened to be passing by, shouted: "Dr. Lin, are you getting a divorce?"
The patients in the ward who were crying out in pain stopped screaming and stared at them with their heads raised: "Dr. Lin, are you getting a divorce?"
Lin Yuxi: "..."
I'm just convinced.
In less than one afternoon, the entire ophthalmology clinic knew that Dr. Lin was getting divorced!
Do not believe? You see her eyes are swollen from crying.
The happiest person was Su Cheng. When she saw Lin Yuxi, her face was full of joy: "Hey, your kappa husband dumped you?"
Lin Yuxi didn't know why she was so happy.
"Why are you happy?" Lin Yuxi ate her lunch leisurely and said in a calm tone, "My husband's mistress is not as excited as you."
The colleagues in the cafeteria burst into laughter, and Su Cheng's face almost turned mad.
She probably went to complain to Director Yuan, and Lin Yuxi was called over to give her a lesson: "Don't talk about your private life in the hospital. It will not only affect the patients, but also affect the work of other colleagues."
When Lin Yuxi first entered the hospital, Director Yuan had not yet become the director. The director of the ophthalmology department at that time was now Vice President Qiu.
The two disagreed, and the entire ophthalmology department was divided into two factions. Vice President Qiu had good medical skills and a high reputation. Although Director Yuan had a low position, he was somewhat related to the director and had a strong backing.
Lin Yuxi and Su Cheng entered the hospital at the same time. Su Cheng was also a relative of the dean, so she naturally became close to Director Yuan.
Lin Yuxi was just starting out and had no idea that the intrigues in hospital departments were comparable to palace fights. Vice President Qiu admired her very much and praised her several times, so she became a thorn in Director Yuan's side.
She didn't do anything and just stood in line.
Not long after, Vice President Qiu was promoted and left, and Director Yuan took over. Lin Yuxi was naturally targeted and scolded frequently in the past two years.
But she was really not in a good mood today, so she couldn't bear it and retorted.
"Why don't you adjust the surveillance to see if I have said anything about my private life? The patient is too gossipy and I can't control it. Su Cheng, you can do it and tell her for me that there is no place under my bed, so don't stare at me. My husband’s love life.”
Director Yuan was very angry: "Xiao Lin, what is your attitude?"
Lin Yuxi said: "I respect your attitude very much. If you think it's not good enough, how about I kneel down and say it?"
When she was kicked out of the office by Director Yuan, she saw Tan Xingchen's wheelchair disappearing from the corridor with a swish, the wheels almost scratching sparks.
Tan Xingchen felt so guilty that he didn't come to see her all day.
When it was time to come to the clinic for examination, Lin Yuxi checked her fundus and found that there was nothing wrong.
Tan Xingchen hummed and apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to shout so loudly."
"Is your sorry worth anything?" Lin Yuxi didn't get too angry, "You cause trouble to me every day."
"Why am I causing trouble? I care about you!"
Tan Xingchen knew how to avoid people this time. He turned around and looked around to see if there was no one before saying, "Just leave. Anyway, you and Brother Yan Jing are not happy together. Last time you two had a quarrel in the hospital, you didn't know that you His expression at that time looked like he was about to break into pieces, and it made me feel sad to see him!"
Lin Yuxi exposed it ruthlessly: "Don't be hypocritical. Wasn't the reason for the quarrel that day because of you?"
Tan Xingchen touched his nose and scratched his ears guiltily: "I know I was wrong."
As she spoke, she seemed to have suddenly made up her mind.
"You can leave. If you leave, I will introduce my brother to you!"
