Chapter 32: Free
Duan Jingchen came to see me when I was about to leave the hospital.
When he came, I saw that he had bruises on his cheeks.
The two of us were silent for a while, and I was about to leave but had to lie back in the hospital bed.
"I'm fine. I said to him.
Duan Jingchen nodded, he was still looking at me, I couldn't see his emotions.
"Is the investigation clear, whose person is it?" I asked.
"Si Lu Yuan. Duan Jingchen said.
"It's too low-level. I said.
"Well, it's even worse than Lin Weisheng. Duan Jingchen said.
The appearance of Si Luyuan and Lin Weisheng flashed in my mind, and then I thought of Sinan.
"Is Sinan Si Luyuan's biological son?" I asked.
"Maybe. Duan Jingchen didn't seem to know.
"Let's not talk about those things, let's talk about us. I looked at Duan Jingchen.
Duan Jingchen waited for me to continue.
"It's not like it's good to get a divorce. I said to Duan Jingchen.
Duan Jingchen nodded and said, "The house will be left to you, and then I will give you a sum of money." ”
"Yes, it all looks so good for me. I squinted and smiled.
"It's a deal, let it be traded to the end. Duan Jingchen said.
"Incisive, my style of speaking has changed after being with me for a long time. "I praise Duan Jingchen.
I now thought of the scene where I was going to slam the divorce certificate on Lin Weisheng's face, and the corners of my mouth hooked slightly.
Duan Jingchen looked at me affectionately, I pursed my lips and smiled and said, "I said it, don't look at me like this, I'm not sad." ”
The next day, Duan Jingchen and I came to the Civil Affairs Bureau, and it was very calm.
I still lost to Lu Xueyao after all, which made me very unhappy.
"From today onwards, we will be strangers. I said to Duan Jingchen.
"If you need my help, you can come to me. Duan Jingchen said.
I squinted and said, "No." ”
This marriage of more than four years, I thought it would end a little later, but I didn't expect to walk like this and die early.
I should be happy, I'm free.
After Duan Jingchen and I came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, the sun was very dazzling.
"Goodbye. After I finished speaking to Duan Jingchen, I left without looking back.
The sun shone so hard that my eyes could not be opened, and my hands and feet were indeed cold.
I knew I should be happy, but deep down I still felt a little empty.
I sent a message to Lin Weisheng that Duan Jingchen and I were divorced.
Lin Weisheng's call came quickly.
"Lin Wan, don't give me nonsense. Lin Weisheng's voice was anxious and nervous.
"If you want to see the divorce certificate, I can bring it to you. I said to Lin Weisheng.
"Are you crazy for a dead girl, who pulled you so big, and now you have the ability again, right?" Lin Weisheng was angry on the phone.
"From four years ago to now, I think I've given you everything back that should have been returned. I said calmly to Lin Weisheng.
"You!" Lin Wei was speechless with anger.
"Also, isn't my mother's inheritance all with you!" I said to Lin Weisheng.
"What's there!What's the house burned down by fire!" Lin Weisheng was anxious all of a sudden.
"The Lin Group doesn't have my mother's shares, and this is not a business founded by my grandfather?" I asked.
"Lin Wan! Lin's enterprise is half dead, who brought it back to life all these years, and you still tell me about shares!" Lin Weisheng said on the phone.
"But the shares still exist, don't I? I'm the first heir, don't I?" I was as calm as I had just been.
"Who taught you this, and you don't know who you are? Lin Weisheng said.
"I don't know if there is the bloodline of the Lin family, but I know legally. I said.
"Something without conscience, are you going to beat it up now?" Lin Weisheng asked.
"Uncle, I didn't say that I would fight back, in the past few years, I have paid off your so-called nurturing grace. I said.
"What do you want?" said Lin Weisheng.
"I don't want to do anything, just tell you that I and Duan Jingchen are divorced, don't beat my mind again. I said.
I could probably imagine Lin Wei's angry frowning.
"Of course, it's up to you to cut off the relationship with me, and you are not afraid of leaving us in the future, so let's continue to maintain this relationship. I said to Lin Weisheng.
"Lin Wan, you are just twenty-two years old, you are so vicious!" Lin Weisheng said.
"Uncle still knows my age, I'm really moved, presumably when my uncle wants to put me in Duan Jingchen's bed, he knows that I am only eighteen years old, and it is not appropriate to use evil to describe his niece. I sneered.
"Lin Wan, I am benevolent and righteous to you, if you have to say it so absolutely today, don't blame me for being unkind. Lin Weisheng said.
"Why, you want to kill me?" I asked.
"I won't kill you, killing you will dirty my hands. Lin Weisheng said.
"So, has my uncle considered our relationship in the future?" I asked Lin Weisheng.
"We don't have anything to do with each other. Lin Weisheng said.
"Okay, that's what you said!" I said to Lin Weisheng.
"Count you ruthless. Lin Weisheng hung up directly after saying this.
I looked at the recording and smiled.
Treat people like Lin Weisheng can't be too weak.
I dialed Zhou's phone again, but there was still no answer. I sighed, if Zhou Ji wanted to contact me, he must have called me back long ago when he saw my miss.
I came home, feeling tired, and slept well into the evening.
When I woke up at night, my stomach was rumbling and I was left with an empty refrigerator.
For a moment, I wanted to warm up my home.
I came to the supermarket alone, pushing the cart and not knowing what to choose.
When I came back from England, I didn't have a few fires.
I threw things in the car in the fresh food section, beef, squid, chicken, eggs......
I came out with a big bag and a small bag, and I bought a few ornaments and a few pots of dried flowers at the handicrafts.
When I got home, I put them in the fridge one by one, put them in the fry, and enjoyed them one by one.
"Dinner, please. "I called Liu Mo.
"It's rare for Miss Lin to bleed. Liu Mo said on the other end of the phone.
"Come to my house, this girl will cook herself. I said.
"I'll be there soon. Liu Moxing hung up the phone.
I was busy in the kitchen with an apron, I used to rent a house in the UK, I had been cooking for a few years, and my cooking skills were okay.
I heard the doorbell, I thought it was Liu Mo, and I trotted a few steps over to open the door.
Duan Jingchen standing at the door surprised me, he looked at me wearing an apron at home, and he was also stunned.
"Why are you here?" I asked Duan Jingchen.
Duan Jingchen walked into the house, just sat down, and before I could speak, I ran to the kitchen.
The sweet and sour pork ribs were almost burnt.
When I finished busy from the kitchen, I saw Duan Jingchen sitting on the sofa and smoking.
I sat across from him, looked at him and said, "Is there something wrong?"
"Habitually going upstairs. Duan Jingchen said.
"It's better to change this habit in the future. I said.
Duan Jingchen extinguished the cigarette butt and leaned on the sofa with his arms crossed, his deep eyes looking at me.
I felt a little uncomfortable, and I took my apron off.
"Have you eaten it, do you want to eat it together?" I asked.
I am in a gentler state now than I was before the divorce.
"Lin Wan, I may be getting married. Duan Jingchen said.
I was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Okay, don't tell me it's Lu Xueyao." ”
Duan Jingchen stared at me and didn't speak.
My eyes blinked, hiding my guilt.
"Congratulations, a lover is finally married. I said.
"Lin Wan, you don't have the slightest emotion for me, do you?" Duan Jingchen asked.
"Isn't it appropriate to discuss these issues after divorce?" I asked.
"There are a lot of compulsions in life. Duan Jingchen suddenly said with emotion.
"If you can't change it, then choose to accept it. I said.
Was Lu Xueyao his last resort, or was it his last resort when I married him?
"Lin Wan, I've never met a girl who is as special as you......," Duan Jingchen said.
Ahem, I coughed twice to stop him from what he was going to say.
"If you tell me this, I will misunderstand, I will misunderstand, I will make me think that you want to reconcile with me. I said to Duan Jingchen.
"But we can't do it, can we?" I said.
"Lin Wan, you make me feel distressed. Duan Jingchen said.
My heart softened, and I had no resistance to his sudden tenderness.
"You are the first man in my life in the true sense of the word. I said.
"Then why do you want to divorce me?" Duan Jingchen asked.
"Because it doesn't mean you're the last man in my life. I looked straight into Duan Jingchen's eyes.
Just then, the doorbell rang. My mind was pulled back and I ran to the door.
Liu Mo stood at the door holding a box of Valentine.
As soon as he came in, he saw Duan Jingchen on the sofa.
I haven't told Liu Mo about our divorce yet, and I'm going to talk about it tonight.
"Lin Wan, are you trying to ease our relationship?" asked Liu Mo.
"Are you eating here?" I asked, looking at Duan Jingchen.
Duan Jingchen glanced at me, then at Liu Mo, and at the case of beer.
"In. Duan Jingchen said.
I swallowed my saliva in embarrassment, I still had a lot of things to complain about to Liu Mo, but now it's okay, it's a blind meal.
I made braised pork ribs, kung pao chicken, fried egg whites with bean sprouts, pan-fried tofu, and a winter melon and kelp soup.
I sat next to Liu Mo, and Duan Jingchen sat opposite Liu Mo.
"Cheers. I opened a can of beer and toasted to Duan Jingchen and Liu Mo, I squinted and smiled heartlessly.
"Yes, it tastes like you made me in England. Liu Mo finished drinking and took a bite of Kung Pao Chicken's chicken.
Duan Jingchen was bored and eating.
"Liu Mo, Duan Jingchen and I are divorced. I said to Liu Mo.
Liu Mo was stunned for a moment, then looked at me and said, "Congratulations." ”
He drank the beer down, and I took a few sips of it, not reserved at all.
"Maybe we can be friends. Duan Jingchen suddenly said to Liu Mo.
I didn't believe that these words would come out of Duan Jingchen's mouth.
I took a few sips of wine and felt sick to my stomach, so I stopped drinking.
Duan Jingchen and Liu Mo began to talk happily.
Liu Mo didn't have too much heart, and when others gave a few good words, he immediately had no position.
Duan Jingchen seemed to want to talk to him.
"Lin Wan was in our business school at the time, but she was a beautiful student. You don't know how many handsome British guys confess to her. Liu Mo said.
"Did she accept it?" Duan Jingchen asked.
Of course not, she is busy working all day to earn money, how can she have the time to fall in love. Liu Mo said.
"Lin Weisheng won't give you living expenses?" Duan Jingchen asked.
I shrugged my shoulders and said no.
"Why are you two so close?" Duan Jingchen asked.
"Help each other. Liu Mo summed it up in four words.
Liu Mo suddenly put his arm around my shoulders and said, "When we went to school, that's it. ”
Duan Jingchen was a little dissatisfied, and I pushed Liu Mo's hand away.
"Are you really gay?" Duan Jingchen asked.
"Maybe, but I don't know what kind of feelings I have for Lin Wan. Liu Mo drank some wine and said directly.
"What's the situation?" I looked at Liu Mo with an exaggerated expression.
"Beyond friendship, towards family, but not love. Liu Mo summed it up himself.
"What kind of man does she like?" Duan Jingchen asked Liu Mo.
"Maybe a man who can give her enough security, her heart, a hard shell inside, is too soft. Liu Mo said.
I could afford goosebumps and suddenly a wave of nausea in my stomach.
I ran to the bathroom and retched twice without throwing up.
It may be that I didn't eat during the day and drank beer directly at night, and I felt sick in my stomach.
"If you don't cherish Lin Wan well, you will regret it. Liu Mo was overwhelmed, and a few bottles of beer began to talk nonsense to Duan Jingchen.
Duan Jingchen seemed to enjoy Liu Mo saying this to him, and he was not angry, but just listened from the sidelines.
"You see that she is yelling all day long, but she is actually a little girl, innocent, always thinking how smart she is. Liu Mo said dotingly.
Duan Jingchen listened and didn't speak.
"But it's okay if you get divorced, she yells at me all day long and wants to be free, now it's okay, it's free. Liu Mo said.
"That's fine. Duan Jingchen said.
"But your vision is really bad, just the last time I ate the barbecue girl, tsk. Liu Mo said.
"We sometimes can't help ourselves. Duan Jingchen said.
"Excuses, they're all excuses. Liu Mo said.
"There are some things that you will never understand. Duan Jingchen looked at Liu Mo and said.
Liu Mo smiled and said, "Look at my earrings, Lin Wan gave them, I have been carrying them for several years. ”
I don't know why Liu Mo suddenly said such a sentence, I can only blink cutely.
"The affection between you is deeper than the husband and wife between us. Duan Jingchen said.
"Stop, we don't have any relationship between husband and wife now. Let's eat, it's cold for a while. I said.
Liu Mo couldn't drink much, he didn't drink too much, he already had a big tongue, and then he simply lay on the sofa.
Duan Jingchen's cheeks were slightly red, and his cheeks would be slightly red every time he finished drinking.
He looked at me and said, "Let's be lovers." Didn't you say you wanted to be my lover?"
I was stunned, in just one day, I was divorced and wanted to become a lover, and then became a junior?
"When your lover is not good, when will you and Lu Xueyao stop pestering and come to me again. I said to Duan Jingchen.
"Do you have to let the grievances between you affect us?" Duan Jingchen asked.
"There's no way not to affect, I'm not so generous, I'm so young, I can't be relieved of her. Perhaps when I am seventy or eighty years old, I will be comforted to see her leave this world before me. "I'm more serious.
"Also, don't say that we, we now, don't have any. I said to Duan Jingchen.
Duan Jingchen looked at me and said, "You are not at all like a person of your age, too mature. ”
"But in Liu Mo's eyes, I am still a little girl. I smiled at Duan Jingchen.
Duan Jingchen didn't seem to worry that Liu Mo was asleep at home, so he woke him up and left with Liu Mo in his arms.
I cleaned up the table, and Duan Jingchen's words of wine just now came to my ears.
He himself can't understand his feelings, maybe he just can't get the unwillingness to get it and just want to have a play. I thought to myself.
I still felt sick to my stomach after cleaning up, so I went to bed early.
The next day, as soon as I arrived at the company, I heard Ji Yu say to me: "The second young master of the Duan family is coming to the company today." ”
I was dumbfounded, Duan Jingchen has a younger brother?
"What do you mean?" I asked Ji Yu.
"What do you mean?" Ji Yu asked.
"Mr. Duan has a younger brother?" I asked.
"Of course! It's only one year younger than Mr. Duan! I've been abroad and just came back. Ji Yu said.
"What is he doing here?" I asked.
"Family business, of course, is to see who is more suitable for inheritance. Ji Yu had a worried expression on his IQ.
My thoughts were a little confused, Duan Jingchen never told me that he had a younger brother at home, I went to Duan's house for dinner, and the Duan family never mentioned it.
"What's it called?" I asked.
Duan Jingyi. Ji Yu said.
I went back to my desk in a bit of a trance and did my own thing.
I don't know why I was so shocked and uneasy when I heard the news.
At noon, I ran to the president's office, and I wanted to ask Duan Jingchen why he never told me.
When I came to the twenty-eighth floor, I retreated, why should I question him, and what obligation do we have to tell this?
I walked out of the elevator and into the elevator again.
"Wait a minute. A male voice came.
I hurriedly pressed the elevator.
The man, dressed in a dark blue suit, walked into the elevator and nodded slightly to me and said, "Thank you." ”
I never thought that I would encounter an elevator accident in the company, and when I saw the number of elevators going down was constantly changing, when I was about to reach the tenth floor, the elevator stopped with a "pop", and the elevator went dark.
I didn't say anything, what I was most afraid of was such a small and dark space, and this kind of time always reminded me of the kidnapping and rape case committed by Lin Weisheng four years ago, and the scene when I was locked up in a small room with my brother in kindergarten before I was eight years old.
Over the years, I've slept with the lights on a lot of the time.
My breathing began to become short, my palms were sweating, and I couldn't say a word.
It was as if the blood in my body was about to be drained, and I sat in the elevator with my legs limp.
When the man saw that I didn't make a sound, he should have noticed my abnormality, he turned on the flashlight in his mobile phone and saw that my cheeks were red and sweating.
He squatted down, wiped the sweat from my forehead with his hand, and said, "Don't be afraid, the call will come in a while." ”
He tried to get me up, hunched over the elevator, but I couldn't get up.
I couldn't speak, my throat seemed to be blocked, I looked at the man in front of me, I used all my strength to grab his arm.
"The elevator doors will open soon, the company has emergency power, and you can get out in a while. "Men soothe me like a little child.
Every minute here felt like a century, and I saw myself in the orphanage, older children blocking me and my brother in the toilet, and I blocked my brother with my body, letting them kick me and kick me.
I saw Lin Weisheng lock me up in a small dark room for a whole day and a night, until Duan Jingchen, who had drunk the wine that Lin Weisheng had carefully prepared, came towards me......
I buried my head between my legs, feeling my death approaching.
My throat was choked and I must be going to die......
I don't know how long I held on, but the lights in the elevator came on and slowly descended one floor.
The elevator doors opened, and I was carried out of the elevator by the man.
The man asked me for water, and after I took a few sips, my consciousness began to clear, and I looked around in a trance, and let out a long sigh of relief.
This has not happened in a few years, except for one time when I first arrived in the UK, in Manchester.
I cast a grateful look at the strange man and said slowly, "Thank you." ”
The onlookers dispersed, and later I learned that this man was Duan Jingyi, and as soon as Duan Jingyi arrived at the company, the story of heroically saving the United States spread in the company, and naturally, Duan Jingchen also knew.
I returned to the office like a frosted eggplant, and I lay on my desk to calm myself.
"It's okay. "Duan Jingchen called me.
I lay on the table and didn't make a sound.
"Why is that happening?" Duan Jingchen asked.
I still didn't speak.
"I'm going to see you. After Duan Jingchen finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Ji Yu and Wu Fan came to care about me, and I shook my head.
I just need to be alone for a moment now.
"Mr. Duan. "I heard Liu Siyang and Ji Yu and Wu Fan shouting Mr. Duan's voice.
I raised my eyelids and looked at Duan Jingchen.
He walked over and stroked my hair, completely ignoring the rest of the office.
"I wanted to go to you. I said to Duan Jingchen.
"I'm coming. Duan Jingchen comforted me and said.
I shook my head slightly and said, "I'm fine." ”
"Why is this happening?" Duan Jingchen asked.
I just shook my head, and at the moment, I didn't want to say anything.
Duan Jingchen had no choice but to leave.
At this moment, I am so sad that I want to cry, but I can't.
Liu Siyang asked me to take a half-day off work in the afternoon, and I nodded.
I didn't eat at noon, I went straight to the orphanage where I stayed when I was a child, and I sat on the side of the road outside the gate of the orphanage, just like that, quietly looking inside, my mind empty.
I don't know how long it took me to hear a voice behind me say, "You're there too." ”
As soon as I turned around, Sinan was standing behind me, not in a wheelchair.
I stood up suddenly, "Sinan......" I gently spit out these two words.
Sinan looked at the orphanage with a deep look in his eyes.
"Was it called Shu Yi before?" I asked.
"I don't understand the world of adults. What the hell is my name? I don't even know myself. Sinan said sadly.
"Is that your own father?" I asked.
"Perhaps, after so many years, I don't want to explore the truth anymore. Sinan said.
"You're still so young, don't say such things, anything can be changed. I comforted Sinan.
"But I don't want to change anything anymore. Sinan said.
"You've been here before?" I asked Sinan.
"No, it just feels familiar, I've dreamed it in my dreams. Sinan said.
I once again determined that Sinan is the Eight Treasures.
"Do you know me?" I asked Sinan.
"I don't know, but there is an inexplicable sense of familiarity. Sinan said.
The tears in my eyes couldn't stop flowing, and I tilted my head to not let the tears fall too much.
The brother I was looking for with all my life was really standing in front of me at this moment.
