Ruan Yi has a gentle temperament, and Ling Wei always feels that if she develops feelings for someone, it will probably last for a long time.
The dramatic approach of love at first sight doesn't suit her style.
After hearing about this incident, Ling Wei's impression of Ruan Yi was heightened. She looked at Ruan Yi and said half-jokingly, "Suddenly I think you are quite boring."
Ruan Yi: "..."
Ling Wei: "My chest is thunderous and my face is like a flat lake. I'm talking about you."
Ruan Yi lowered his eyes and did not respond to this sentence.
Xu Siyan will probably never know how much impact his refusal to confess that day had on her.
After going to the hospital that night, Ruan Yi said to Qinghe: Mom, you and dad should divorce.
If you continue to break up, you will suffer chaos. This is what he understood from Xu Siyan's rejection.
Before that, Ruan Yi had always been reluctant to let his parents separate, and even had illusions about Ruan Jianggu——
After all, Ruan Jianggu, as his father, loved her when she was young.
Because she had enjoyed her father's love, she was even more unwilling to face the change in Ruan Jianggu's attitude, and had even been thinking of ways to "save" him.
But during this process, Qinghe also suffered.
Ruan Yi thought that she fell in love with Xu Siyan, probably because she was attracted by his decisiveness and directness, which was a temperament she had not had since she was a child.
Because he had seen Xu Siyan's decisiveness when rejecting others, Ruan Yi never had the courage to confess to him.
She wrote many letters to him, but never sent any of them, or even mentioned his name in the letters.
The only intersection between the two was probably the handkerchief.
But in Xu Siyan's life, it was just a trivial thing that was not enough to be remembered by him, and he indeed did not leave an impression on her because of it.
Ruan Yi did not dare to approach him and had no chance to approach him.
It wasn't until his sophomore year in high school that the school held a physics competition. Xu Siyan participated in the competition as the top student in the science class of his senior year. Ruan Yi signed up after learning the news.
In the physics competition, they were not in the same group, but Ruan Yi saw him at the scene.
Xu Siyan was brought over by the teacher to greet his junior high school students. His eyes briefly scanned the crowd, never stopping on her for a moment.
Even though he had known it for a long time, Ruan Yi still inevitably felt a little disappointed when he faced the reality that "Xu Siyan didn't remember her."
A seventeen-year-old girl with a budding love for love is too easily dominated by feelings.
Fortunately, she is not an emotional person, and this incident did not affect the results of the competition.
Her sophomore group won the first prize in the physics competition, and Xu Siyan's senior group also won the first prize. The school took a commemorative group photo.
That photo is the only "photo taken" between Ruan Yi and Xu Siyan so far.
——
While having dinner with Ling Wei, she thought about things in middle school, and Ruan Yi felt a little subtle.
After saying goodbye to Ling Wei, Ruan Yi did not go home and drove to the Affiliated Middle School.
After many years, the Affiliated High School has been expanded and renovated several times. Ruan Yi got out of the car and looked at the huge campus, which was a bit strange.
The security of the attached middle school is tight. As soon as Ruan Yi walked to the school gate, he was stopped by the security and the outside.
Although she said she was a graduate of the high school and wanted to go in and have a look, they never let her in.
So Ruan Yi could only give up and walk alone on the road near the school.
While taking a walk, Ruan Yi's mind was still echoing the question that Ling Wei had just asked her during dinner -
"Are you sorry that you didn't confess to him?"
Ruan Yi didn't answer this question at that time, and even now, she can't think of an answer.
She didn't know whether she regretted it or not, but she knew that no matter what she did, she couldn't change the ending between her and Xu Siyan.
They are destined to be separated.
Ruan Yi wandered outside alone for a long time. When he drove back to his apartment in University City, it was already early in the morning.
She was a little sleepy, rubbed her eyes and yawned when she got off the car, and walked into the elevator in a daze.
Ruan Yi went home, washed briefly and then went to bed.
Probably because she recalled the past too much today, she dreamed about certain things from her school days at night.
Ruan Yi got up very early in the morning, went for a walk with her grandparents, and then came back to prepare lunch with Qinghe.
After lunch, Ruan Yi contacted Jin Zhiyu and made an appointment to meet him at the restaurant of Yongye Club in the evening.
——
After Jiang Mingzhu gave birth, she stayed in the hospital for four days and then returned to Yushui Bay.
On the day of discharge, Xu Siyan, Yuan Ye and other friends all arrived.
Everyone stayed at Yushui Bay to have lunch together, but Xu Siyan was obviously not very interested. When everyone was chatting, he did not participate in the topic.
He usually doesn't talk much, so no one notices his abnormality.
But Yuan Ye was the only one who knew that he and Ruan Yi were divorcing, so after lunch, Yuan Ye took advantage of the fact that no one was around and asked Xu Siyan quietly: "You are very wrong today. Are you still worried about the divorce?"
Xu Siyan: "..."
He didn't answer, and Yuan Ye started to touch his chin and look at him again. After reading the default message from his expression, Yuan Ye patted his shoulder and said, "If you don't want to leave, just leave. Didn't you even check the person's information?" , just waiting to deal with him?"
Although Yuanye's words were just a joke, they were indeed true——
If Xu Siyan insists on not getting a divorce, Ruan Yi can't fight him, her arms can't twist her thighs, she doesn't have the strength.
Xu Siyan: "She is looking for my parents."
Yuanye: "Huh?"
Xu Siyan: "My parents have known about her and Jiang Wan for a long time."
There was a bit of self-deprecation in his voice, "They won't let me act recklessly."
This time it was Yuan Ye's turn to be speechless.
This operation of Wan Liu and Xu Moyan was something he never expected - maybe he had too little experience. This was the first time he heard that his father-in-law and mother-in-law "protected" the male mistress.
Although it is outrageous, it also confirms one thing. Xu Siyan's husband is so incompetent that his parents can't stand it.
Yuanye was silent for a long time before asking Xu Siyan: "Then she plans to sue? Is it necessary to divorce?"
Xu Siyan: "I have found a lawyer. See you in the evening."
——
Ruan Yi and Jin Zhiyu happened to bump into each other in front of the Yongye Club. Jin Zhiyu came up and greeted Ruan Yi, and the two briefly shook hands.
Ruan Yigang was about to invite Jin Zhiyu in, but when he turned around, he saw Xu Siyan getting out of the car.
Ruan Yi was stunned for a moment, and more than ten seconds later, he saw another man in a suit walking towards Xu Siyan.
After the man shook hands with Xu Siyan, he exchanged pleasantries with Jin Zhiyu: "Jin Lu, long time no see. Are you coming to Beicheng to handle a case?"
Jin Zhiyu glanced at Ruan Yi beside him and said, "Come to see a client."
Xu Siyan stood aside and watched, his eyes scanning Ruan Yi and Jin Zhiyu successively, and he had already guessed the relationship between the two.
After entering the box and sitting down, Xu Siyan asked Lin Cheng: "What are your chances of winning in a lawsuit against that lawyer just now?"
