Sunlight shines through the curtains into the room.
Chen Ke was lying on the sofa, looking tired. There were takeout boxes and cigarette butts on the floor at his feet, and the air in the room was turbid. I took out my phone and checked the time. The whole day passed without doing anything.
Ever since Ming Yao left, he couldn't cheer up and was as lifeless as a walking zombie. Only when he loses it can he realize how much influence Mingyao has on him.
However, there was nothing he could do to save Mingyao. Yes, he has nothing now and his health is not good. She is right to want to leave...
"Bang bang bang——"
There was a knock on the door. At first, Chen Ke thought that he had heard something wrong in his trance. When the knock on the door rang again, he stood up suddenly and stumbled over to open the door.
"Ming—why is it you?!"
Chen Ke's eyes widened in disbelief.
He never dreamed that the person standing outside the door was Hang Xinran, whom he had never seen since the car accident.
Hang Xinran is wearing a small fragrant suit, long curly hair, and exquisite makeup. She looks very charming and feminine, but now Chen Ke will never be tempted again.
"How did you find my house? I don't want to see you."
Chen Ke spoke coldly and raised his hand to close the door.
Hang Xinran raised her legs slightly, her eight-centimeter high heels stuck in the crack of the door, folded her hands around her chest, tilted her head and looked up and down at the decadent Chen Ke.
"Tsk, tsk, I haven't seen you for a while, why are you acting like a beggar?"
Hang Xinran's red lips were slightly hooked, and a finger was wrapped around her hair: "As you are now, no wonder your wife doesn't want you."
These words touched Chen Ke's sore spot, and his face darkened, "What exactly do you want?"
"It's not that good. I'm here to compensate you. After all, I am responsible for your car accident." Hang Xinran's tone softened, and she took out a bank card from her bag and handed it to Chen Ke.
"What does this mean?" Chen Ke frowned and did not reach out to take it.
He didn't have much contact with Hang Xinran, and he didn't know her well, but he could see that she was a very shrewd and egoistic person, and she would not do anything that would not benefit her.
"What? Is it possible that you have something worth lying to me now?"
Hang Xinran sneered and put the card into Chen Ke's hand.
"It doesn't matter what you want now. I just pity you. Come to my company after your injury and I will arrange a job for you. After you succeed in your career, go to your wife and she will naturally change her mind..."
Chen Ke held the card tightly in his hand, and his palms ached. Although he knew that Mingyao was not the kind of person who valued material things, the thought of being with her almost made him lose his mind.
"good......"
***
After contacting Chen Ke, the two met in a teahouse at noon the next day.
The private rooms in the teahouse are not big, but they provide good privacy and are suitable for talking about things.
Mingyao rushed over after class, and Chen Ke was already sitting inside waiting for him.
"Yao Yao..."
Chen Ke stood up as soon as he entered the room. He was wearing a dark blue suit today. He had gained a little weight and looked less depressed than before. He should have recovered well.
Mingyao sat down opposite him. She had just finished class and her throat was a little tired. She didn't want to waste more words and went straight to the topic.
"When are we going to get divorced?"
Chen Ke felt sad. During this period, he joined Hang Xinran's company and was so busy every day.
Hang Xinran also took him to many cocktail parties and dinners, where he met many high-quality customer resources that he had not had access to before. It seemed that Hang Xinran really wanted to support him.
After getting drunk once, he told Hang Xinran about Mingyao, and tears flowed down while talking.
In this matter, Hang Xinran advised him to let go and not to persist.
"The tighter you chase, the more disgusted the other party will be towards you. Because you have already committed a heinous crime against her, it is better to clear everything and start over, and the foundation of your relationship will still be there. Many couples who quarrel will end up with each other after divorce. We were able to get along peacefully, but after a while we couldn't let go of each other, so we got back together again..."
Chen Ke frowned at first, and the more he thought, what she said made sense.
Mingyao is obviously being pushed further and further away from her now. If she follows what she says, there may still be hope...
Now that both parties have decided to divorce, all that remains is to divide the property.
Chen Ke: "Mingyao, the house we live in is left to you."
Mingyao: "I don't want the house, just give me your savings."
There are still many years of mortgage payments on that house that have not been paid off, and Mingyao has no children, so she doesn't want to bear such a heavy burden. Moreover, there are too many memories of the two of them in it, and Mingyao is worried about being touched by the scene.
Chen Ke lowered his head, the hand holding the tea cup trembled slightly, and his voice was a bit hoarse.
"good......"
***
Mingyao still couldn't believe it until she came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
She actually got divorced so smoothly?
Then a huge feeling of joy and relief came over her, and she felt that her whole body was lighter.
Looking back, I saw Chen Ke walking out of the door slowly, with a look of confusion and confusion on his face.
The past memories of these years came to mind one by one. No matter what, most of what Chen Ke brought her was happiness.
Mingyao sighed softly, who would have thought that they would reach this point now?
She also once resented the other party, but now she chooses to let it go. After separation, I hope everyone is well.
"Chen Ke, goodbye." Mingyao raised the corners of her lips slightly, nodded to Chen Ke, turned around and left.
Watching Ming Yao's back disappear, Chen Ke stood there stunned for a long time, feeling like a big hole had been opened in his heart. The sun shone on his body, and he felt cold, and his teeth chattered slightly.
Was his decision to divorce really the right thing to do...
There was a blue sports car parked not far from the street. Hang Xinran was sitting in the driver's seat and witnessed this scene. He took out his mobile phone with one hand and sent a text message to Shen Yu.
Then he opened the cigarette case and lit a cigarette. The smoke dispersed, and Hang Xinran fell into memories.
This was the first time she met Song Mingyao in person, and she understood why Shen Yu was fascinated by her.
Slender and frail, even she, a woman, found her lovable.
However, such a woman cannot be Shen Yu's wife.
When Shen Yu made that request to her that day, she immediately felt something was wrong. How can a man find out that his wife is cheating and still ask her to continue the inappropriate relationship? Does Shen Yu have a special quirk? But he has not shown any preference in this area in recent years.
She found someone to investigate, but it didn't take much effort because Shen Yu didn't cover up at all.
It turns out that Shen Yu is attracted to Chen Ke's wife, who is a middle school Chinese teacher...
The first thought that flashed through Hang Xinran's mind was that Shen Yu was unwilling and this behavior was revenge on himself.
But then I thought about it and felt that Shen Yu would not do such a childish thing. Until Shen Yu ordered her to divorce Chen Ke and his wife.
Only then did Hang Xinran understand that Shen Yu was really interested in that woman...
Huge anger surged in her heart, but she suppressed it forcefully.
Hang Xinran has actually always known that for a family like theirs, marriage is essentially the integration of resources and can bring more benefits to both parties. It's okay to ask for money or fame and fortune, but it's basically impossible to ask for loyalty from the other party.
Even if it is not a family marriage, but a relationship based on emotions, it is rare for them to be loyal to each other. There's no way, it's human nature. Life is too long, and there are too many men and women rushing towards you. Who can resist the temptation?
There are endless gossips about this in the circle, and it can’t be finished for three days and three nights. She herself had grown up in this kind of environment, and she had been numbed by what she saw and heard.
It wasn't until I married Shen Yu that I realized that there were men like him who were not flirtatious with women and didn't have any gossip.
When doing beauty treatments with friends, they secretly and openly envied themselves for finding a good husband. Hang Xinran has always been proud of herself, creating the illusion that Shen Yu loves her deeply. Anyway, they don't know what real life is like.
She couldn't imagine how those people would ridicule her when they learned that Shen Yu also had a lover...
