City A, in a spacious and bright office.
A handsome man sat at the desk. He glanced at the information on the desk and pinched his eyebrows.
His voice was a little cold: "When can you get divorced?"
A female voice came from the mobile phone: "It's not clear yet, I will get the divorce certificate as soon as possible."
No one wants to divorce Gu Jing more quickly than Jiang Heshu.
The two chatted for a few words and hung up the phone.
Pei Yan casually threw his phone on the table, noticed something with his eyes, reached out and pulled out a photo from the pile of information.
It's the wedding photo of Gu Jing and Jiang Heshu.
The woman is wearing a beautiful white wedding dress, and the man is in a suit and leather shoes. They have happy smiles on their faces. The man is handsome and the woman is beautiful, and they match each other exceptionally well.
But for Pei Yan, it was particularly dazzling.
After a while, he groaned and threw the photo on the table.
If he had known in advance that Jiang Heshu was married, he would never have agreed to his grandma's bet.
But now that the agreement has been signed, it's too late to regret it.
——
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Heshu returned to the restaurant.
Seeing Chu Xue standing in front of the dining table with her head hanging down, wondering what she was thinking, Jiang Heshu asked doubtfully, "What's wrong with you?"
This sentence interrupted Chuxue's thoughts, and she quickly shook her head, "I'm fine."
With that said, a few people sat down and continued eating.
Jiang Heshu wiped Pei Sui'an's mouth and said in a casual tone, "I heard you call Gu Jing's name just now?"
Instantly, Chuxue's heart was beating fast, and she licked her dry lips.
"Isn't my ex-boyfriend Gu Jing's brother? He mentioned Gu Jing, so I scolded Gu Jing."
Jiang Heshu was impressed by her ex-boyfriend, so she nodded and said nothing.
Chuxue watched her expression carefully, and after a while, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Jiang Heshu looked up at her again, with those bright and beautiful peach blossom eyes that seemed to be able to see into people's hearts.
"Why are you acting weird? It's like you've done something wrong."
A layer of cold sweat broke out on Chuxue's back, her eyes evaded, not daring to look at Jiang Heshu.
She was afraid that if Jiang Heshu found out that he had lied to her, even with Gu Jing before...
Chuxue clenched her chopsticks, and after a few seconds, she said, "He wants to get back together with me. I'm a little tempted, and I'm afraid you'll scold me."
is that so?
Jiang Heshu looked at her and said nothing.
Their relationship is really good and they are very familiar with each other.
This made Jiang Heshu clearly know that Chuxue was lying.
But why did she lie?
Jiang Heshu couldn't figure it out, and wasn't ready to get to the bottom of it and continue to ask.
No matter how good their relationship is, they still need to have a sense of propriety and boundaries.
…
After dinner, Chuxue's boss called and asked her to go back to the company and work overtime.
Chuxue cursed, but still rushed to the company.
The original plan to go out together fell through, so Jiang Heshu and Pei Sui'an took a nap at home.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Jiang Heshu fell asleep, her cell phone rang. It was her mother.
Jiang Heshu yawned and answered the phone. The next moment, Jiang's mother's questioning voice rang in his ears: "Jiang Heshu, are you still a human being?"
"You clearly know that the doctor said last time that Xia Xia would not be able to have children after another miscarriage, and you actually deliberately tricked her into taking abortion pills?"
"Did you know that Xia Xia had a massive hemorrhage yesterday and almost died? You couldn't have a baby yourself, and you made Xia Xia unable to have a baby. How could you be so cold-blooded and cruel?"
Jiang's father also scolded: "Why did we give birth to you, a thing like you that harms your siblings and is worse than an animal?"
These curses made Jiang Heshu's sleepiness disappear completely.
You can guess without thinking that it was Jiang Xiaxia who complained to Jiang's father and Jiang's mother.
Jiang Heshu looked cold and said in a calm voice: "I didn't trick her into drinking abortion pills. It was Jiang Xiaxia who wanted to trick me into drinking..."
Before she finished speaking, Father Jiang retorted: "That's nonsense! You can't get pregnant, how could Xia Xia let you drink abortion pills?"
Jiang's mother echoed and said, "Jiang Heshu, you actually have the nerve to deny it? Xia Xia already said that you put the abortion pill in her juice."
"How nice is Xia Xia to you? She treats you like a biological sister, and you treat her like this? Jiang Heshu, has your conscience been eaten by a dog?"
How ridiculous! They call her "Jiang Heshu" and "Jiang Xiaxia", but they call her "Xiaxia" affectionately.
Jiang Heshu couldn't help but smile bitterly. She was obviously used to her parents' favoritism, but when she heard her parents say this with her own ears, she still felt a sense of injustice in her heart.
She took a deep breath: "Why do you only believe Jiang Xiaxia's words but not me? Obviously, I am your daughter."
Jiang's mother said: "Xia Xia has been well-behaved and sensible since she was a child. She never lies. Of course we believe her words!"
These words made Jiang Heshu laugh.
Jiang Xiaxia never lies? Don't they feel guilty when they say this?
Hearing Jiang Heshu's laughter, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother became furious.
"Jiang Heshu, you are such a wolf-hearted thing. You made Xia Xia lie in the hospital and will never be able to be a mother again. Yet you can still laugh out loud."
"You ran over to take care of that old immortal who was hospitalized in the middle of the night, but you were so cruel and cruel to your sister Xia Xia. I really regret that I didn't strangle you, a rip-off, to death."
"If I knew you were this kind of person, I would have asked your mother to abort you when she was pregnant with you."
These curses were like sharp swords, stabbing Jiang Heshu's heart with blood and extreme pain.
But her lips moved slightly and she actually smiled.
She said lightly: "If I knew that my parents were you, I would rather not be born."
After saying that, Jiang Heshu hung up the phone, found the audio recorded yesterday, and sent it to Jiang's mother.
A few years ago, she would have been slandered and scolded for no reason and would have fought with her parents to clear her grievances.
But later I discovered that no matter what she said, no matter how right or reasonable she said, she could not change her parents' point of view.
As time passed, she became tired and tired, and she was too lazy to talk anymore.
Jiang Heshu turned off the phone and lay back on the bed.
However, after that phone call and her parents' scolding, she lost all sleep.
Jiang Heshu stared at the snow-white ceiling and couldn't sleep until his eyes were sore.
Afraid of disturbing Pei Sui'an, she got up and went to the balcony, sat on the sofa, and looked at the steady stream of pedestrians and vehicles on the road downstairs.
Her relationship with her parents had always been uneventful.
Maybe it's because she is close to her grandmother, maybe they haven't taken care of her, or maybe it's because of her younger brother...
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Heshu finally fell asleep.
In the dream, she returned to her childhood without her grandmother.
She worked hard to do housework, study hard, and take care of Jiang Xiaxia. She just wanted to get praise from her parents and satisfy her parents.
However, in her expectant eyes, her parents turned to Jiang Xiaxia.
They said: "Xia Xia is so good. She is nothing like He Shu when she was a child, crying non-stop every day and causing headaches."
In her early teens, she was very unconvinced and retorted: "No, Xia Xia is more noisy than me!"
"She soiled more than ten pieces of clothing a day and made the house dirty. She also pinched me and scratched me. You see, she caught me."
She showed her parents the injuries on her hands and neck, but her parents said, "Children are like this. She pinches and scratches you because she likes you."
"He Shu, you are the elder sister. Don't be so fussy. My younger sister is young. You have to let her and take good care of her. You are the eldest child."
5-year-old Jiang Xiaxia is a child who needs care.
At 11 years old, she is the eldest child who has to take care of Jiang Xiaxia.
But what her parents said about her crying every day was when she was just born and not yet one month old.
Seeing her parents praising Jiang Xiaxia and surrounding Jiang Xiaxia, she couldn't help but say, "Grandma said I was very obedient and said I didn't cry when I was a child..."
As soon as the word 'grandma' comes out, all the smiles on the parents' faces disappear, and they raise their hands and give her a few slaps.
After many times, she understood that the word 'grandma' was a forbidden word at home.
