Two days later.
The video of Lin Youyou being stripped naked was presented to Xu Huanshan. It was sent to him by a small leader of BJ Paradise who had come to the fireworks company to discuss cooperation. He didn't know whether it was because he had a grudge for not getting Lin Youyou, or whether it was because he had a grudge for not getting Lin Youyou. Have other thoughts.
Xu Huanshan was very angry. He thought it was Gu Jia who did it. Even if it wasn't Gu Jia, it was Wang Manni or Zhong Xiaoqin's idea. Although this kind of thing happens often, as a spectator and as a person involved, there are completely two different feelings.
He wanted to call Gu Jia to question him, but he was worried that he would offend Gu Jia. After all, he still wanted to be forgiven. He also wanted to call Lin Youyou, but was afraid that this move would give her the courage to continue.
So he was very conflicted, didn't know how to face the current situation, and was extremely distressed. Someone from the company called and said that a customer had arrived and he handed it over to Lao Xu on the pretext that he had something urgent to do. In fact, he stayed in the hotel room from morning to noon.
At nearly 1 o'clock, there was a knock on the door outside.
He thought it was the cleaning staff, so he walked over and opened the door, not wanting to see an acquaintance standing across from him.
"Chen Xu, why are you here?"
"I heard from Lao Xu that you live here, come and have a look." Lin Yue walked into the room as he spoke.
"Oh, Zhong Xiaoqin has been in a bad mood recently. Gu Jia took her to live there. I thought the house was crowded and inconvenient, so I came out to deal with it for two days." Xu Huanshan rolled his eyes and made up a story. It seemed like a reasonable reason: "Do you want to drink water?"
Lin Yue waved his hand to stop him from making tea.
"Xu Ziyan and Sister Chen have been at my place these days. I know about you and Gu Jia."
Xu Huanshan's expression changed and his lips moved a few times, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing.
"Do you know what happened in downtown Zhoupu?"
Xu Huanshan pondered for a moment and nodded slightly.
Lin Yue said: "I'm going to find that girl named Lin Youyou."
Xu Huanshan suddenly raised his head and looked at him in shock.
"Now the whole Internet knows that she broke up other people's families as a mistress. I believe it is only a matter of time before someone acquainted sees it and the news is spread back to her hometown. I asked her if she regretted it. What do you think she said?"
"What did she say?"
Lin Yue stared into his eyes and said: "She said she didn't regret it. Then she showed me the blue firework tattoo on her chest and said that was the best gift you gave her. She also said that she gave a woman the most precious thing. I lost you, now it’s nothing to gain fame.”
"..."
Xu Huanshan remained silent, just holding his face in his hands and rubbing it, looking very distressed.
Lin Yue said: "I finally gave her a number - 3 million. She asked me if she seemed to be the person who wanted to Xu Huanshan's family property. Even if he has nothing now and Gu Jia doesn't want him, she will Continue happily."
Xu Huanshan sighed heavily.
Lin Yue lit a cigarette and handed it over: "That's why I'm here, not because of Gu Jia, but because of Lin Youyou."
Xu Huanshan took the cigarette and took a puff, followed by a violent cough.
"I don't want to divorce Gu Jia."
"I know that you can't let go of Xu Ziyan, and you are also reluctant to let go of Gu Jia, but the decision of whether to divorce or not is not yours alone. Do you think that a strong and independent woman like Gu Jia will make do with you for the sake of her children? In In this matter, poor and humble couples may be more tolerant. Besides, you ruined a young girl's life, do you think you can feel at ease just by saying sorry and spending some money?"
Xu Huanshan was speechless by him.
Yes, on the one hand, there is Gu Jia, whom he has known for ten years, the lovely Xu Ziyan, who has an enviable marriage, and on the other hand, there is the young and beautiful Lin Youyou who is willing to give up everything for him without regrets.
If he chooses the former, he will feel guilty for the rest of his life. Choosing the latter, he felt unwilling and unwilling to give up.
Lin Yue took out a document and threw it on the bedside.
"Before coming here, I went to see a lawyer and asked him to help draft a divorce agreement. Take a look."
Xu Huanshan glanced at him, stretched out his hand to pick up the divorce agreement, and looked at the contents.
"From the perspective of your friend, I think you should divorce Gu Jia, because she is too strong and will not easily forgive your cheating. Even if you beg for nothing to maintain the marriage, your future life will become It’s a disaster, so it’s better to get together and disperse quickly, cut through the mess quickly, and rebuild your own life.”
"From the perspective of Gu Jia's friend, you are unfaithful, so you must pay the price. If you are still a man, just leave the house."
"From the perspective of poor Lin Youyou, everyone can laugh at her, ridicule her, and abuse her, but you can't. She paid the price for her actions. Do you also have to take your share of responsibility for her? ?Find a little-known city to start from scratch and satisfy her longing for love and marriage?"
Lin Yue said: "This is what I think of. You are worthy of everyone's choice. As for Xu Ziyan, there is no need to feel guilty. Parents don't owe their children anything. Love is giving, not repaying debts. What's more, you have left all your family property to Kill him and his mother."
Xu Huanshan smoked a cigarette, occasionally coughing violently, and the ashes fell, falling on his pants and leather shoes.
"This world is very realistic. No one is inseparable from anyone. Time will heal all pain. It is the best medicine in marriage and love. I have finished my words, please think about it carefully."
Lin Yue patted his shoulder, stood up and left.
After preventing the fireworks factory from exploding, helping him avoid going to jail, and arranging a marriage plan for him, Lin Yue felt that he was already friends with Xu Huanshan.
…
A few more days passed.
Changsha, Hunan, EUDORA music bar.
Gu Jia sat on the high stool in front of the bar, holding a match and striking it, blowing it out, striking, blowing it out, striking, blowing it out again, and striking it again, as if this was a very interesting thing.
A young man in a sweatshirt sat down next to her: "I see you have a lot of wishes. You have blown them back and forth several times."
“How many drinks are you selling tonight?”
"Do you think I'm a bartender?"
"Then are you serious about striking up a conversation with your sister?"
"Haha... It depends on the person anyway. In short, no one here cares about age."
After the young man finished speaking, he heard the movement behind him and glanced back, and saw a man wearing a black trench coat and a cigarette in his mouth walking into the bar.
"roll."
Just one word.
The face under the light was younger than he looked, but for some reason there was an indescribable evil aura.
The young man quickly took the cup and left his seat.
Gu Jia turned around when he heard the voice coming from behind.
"How did you come?"
She had turned off her phone since she got on the plane. Even Zhong Xiaoqin and Wang Manni didn't know where she had gone.
Yes, he bought her a plane ticket, but in the huge Changsha and the vast sea of people, it is really not easy to meet her by chance.
Lin Yue sat down next to her, pointed to the Fujia beer on the wine cabinet, and stretched out two fingers.
The bartender took out two bottles from behind, opened them, and pushed them in front of him.
Lin Yue handed a bottle of beer to Gu Jia, took a glass himself, touched it lightly with him, raised his head and took a sip.
"Let me sing you a song. What do you want to hear?"
Gu Jia glanced at the young man holding the guitar on the high stool of the singing platform: "Can you still sing?"
Lin Yue smiled at her, walked to the stage and said a few words to the singer, took the guitar and sat down. He looked at Gu Jia and said to the microphone: "I have a good friend who has encountered some setbacks recently. I came here." I thought about it for a long time but never thought of a suitable gift that would make her feel better. At this time, in this situation, let me sing a song for her. I believe that if I am strong like you, everything will be fine."
Ding~ding ding dong dong.
Ding~
I have tried very hard to understand the darkness hidden in this city.
Go to Demonstration Against Time and watch Loneliness Jump in Line.
Find a seat with your eyes closed.
I heard that serious women are the most beautiful.
But who understands your embarrassment?
The heart has the courage to control it, but the heart has no courage to be ashamed.
Looking at my own stupidity, I am speechless.
Don't be discouraged.
It is your greatest comfort.
Humble or noble? We must continue to fly with regret.
The broken dreams of the night surround you, and the tears you swallow quarrel with your voices.
You are your fortress and no one can destroy it.
Love will be the most honorable thing for you, defend it~
The guests below all listened to his singing quietly, and the bartender polished the glass in his hand for two or three minutes.
Gu Jia was listening and crying in front of the bar, and drank the entire bottle of beer unknowingly.
…
Drop~
The room card is returned to the slot.
The lights come on.
Lin Yue helped her sit down on the bedside.
"Drink so much..."
"In the past, when I was away from Ziyan, I often drank with clients." She looked at his face and said, "I'm not drunk, I really am not. I just feel a little upset in my stomach."
Lin Yue went over to pick up the electric kettle and found that it was empty. He took it to the bathroom, filled up half the kettle of water and put it on the base.
"You came to Changsha just to get rid of the guy who started chatting with me, right?"
Lin Yue listened to the squeaking sound coming from the electric kettle and took out a folded document from his pocket and gave it to her.
"Mr. Xu said he respects your choice."
Gu Jia took it and scanned the header. In the middle were the five characters "Divorce Agreement" and in the lower right corner of the last page was Xu Huanshan's signature.
"I'm going downstairs to see if the supermarket is closed."
Lin Yue walked out of the room and gently closed the door.
Gu Jia did not move, staring blankly at the divorce agreement in her hand. Although she had made up her mind to divorce Xu Huanshan, when it came to signing, she still felt an indescribable frustration and sadness in her heart.
She sat on the bedside for nearly ten minutes when she suddenly heard a bang outside and a firework bloomed in the southern sky.
Looking at the gorgeous scene, she put the divorce agreement in her hand on the table...
The fireworks sparkle and shine.
However, the beauty in the distance was like a thorn piercing her heart. Whenever fireworks bloomed in the sky, she would think of those blue fireworks and the promise Xu Huanshan had made.
As long as Xu Huanshan is around, days like this cannot be avoided.
Click~
There was a soft knock on the door, and Lin Yue walked in from the outside, holding a stainless steel basin in his hand, with hot steam and the aroma of noodles coming out.
"The supermarket downstairs is closed, but fortunately the canteen in the alley opposite is still open. I borrowed the proprietress's kitchen to cook a bowl of noodles. Eat it while it's hot. It will help your cold stomach."
He put down the stainless steel basin and turned around.
Gu Jia stood in front of the window with tears on her face.
Lin Yue glanced at the ballpoint pen on the divorce agreement and knew that she had separated from Xu Huanshan, so he walked over and hugged her gently.
Gu Jia put her arms around his back, rested her face on his shoulder, and cried loudly.
After a moment, she stopped crying because a piece of tenderness covered her lips.
"Chen Xu...don't..."
"don't want……"
"Chen...Xu...wait...a moment"
"I...we..."
"Hmph~"
Ps: I repeat, what happened in the endings of the three characters at the end of the volume progresses in parallel, do not think of it as a linear sequence. What happened here was that Gu Jia half-decided to get involved after signing the divorce agreement, but it happened before Wang Manni went to work as the deputy store manager.
