Chapter 20: The Grace of Letting Go

"Oh, you said Amanda, just like Linda said, she's pretty good~" Mike commented simply.

"Listening to Linda, she's supposed to be a very attractive woman, but how do you guys... Li Manrui asked casually, following Mike's words.

"Why did you get divorced?" Mike turned his head to look at her, and suddenly laughed.

"You're not eating my ex-wife's vinegar, are you?haha~ But I'm glad you care about me so much!" Mike said and pinched Li Manrui's face, looking spoiled.

"Amanda is a really nice woman, very beautiful, very welcoming, typical American girl. Mike relaxed his tie buckle slightly as he spoke.

"She's smart and she's good at winning people's hearts. Like most American women, they often exhibit a sense of white supremacy and inexplicable self-righteousness. None of this affects her to be a good person, a good mother, or a good wife, but marriage is a matter of two people, and after living together for a long time, you will find that there are always some things that cannot be agreed on no matter what, in order not to embarrass each other, we chose to break up, that's all~"

Mike said it very lightly, as if to say that the weather was fine today.

Li Manrui nodded thoughtfully, smiled slightly, and didn't ask any more. She knew a lot of Lao Mei, and at first, like most people, she thought that their private lives were chaotic and everyone was crazy. But after more contact, she found that most of Lao Mei's pre-marriage and post-marriage are very different.

Before marriage, they may deal with their feelings more casually, but once they get married, most people are relatively loyal to their marriage, and after marriage, they will try to maintain their marriage well and pay attention to family life. Among them, many of them would rather not earn money than set aside weekends to spend with their families. It's not unbearable or a big problem, and they usually help each other until they get old.

The most incredible thing for Li Manrui is that they can still get along well after breaking up, unlike people in China who become enemies once they break up or divorce, and they can't wait to see each other again in this life. But Lao Mei is very able to let go, and some even become lifelong friends after breaking up.

I remember that she had a bartender colleague who worked in a restaurant, and the young man was quite handsome, suave, and read countless women. One day, under the arrangement of the young lady, Li Manrui temporarily arranged a young couple to wait in the bar area, but as soon as the girl saw that the bartender was actually her ex-boyfriend, she took her current boyfriend's hand and was about to walk out.

When the bartender saw this, he immediately chased after her, and said to the girl who was about to leave angrily:

"You don't have to leave, if you really don't want to see me, then I'll leave now, don't affect the mood of your date. As a result, the girl's current boyfriend dragged the girl back to her seat and chatted with her ex-boyfriend for a long time about American football.

Thinking of this, Li Manrui raised the corners of her lips slightly, feeling that she was too childish when she heard Linda praise Mike's ex-wife just now, and even Mike himself thought that the woman was not bad, but she was still divorced, what did she have to worry about!

Didn't someone say that the more you hate a person, the more you can't let go? This kind of calm and letting go of foreigners is really worth learning from.

。。。。。。

Lin Zitan stayed in the hospital for five days in a row, until the doctor checked that his fracture was fine, told him to pay attention to try not to move, and let him go home. As for his stomach, he suffered from a stomach ulcer, and the doctor prescribed medicine to him, as long as he took the medicine on time and added a reasonable diet, he could be cured slowly.

On the day he was discharged from the hospital, Lin Zitan seemed a little excited, after jumping into the sea, he was placed in the "dark" hospital as soon as he was salvaged, and he felt that he was stuffy and about to grow hair.

There is no shower in the hospital, although the nurse will change him with a newly washed hospital gown every day, but the desire to take a good bath is stronger than going out to eat, so when Li Manrui came to pick him up, he did not hesitate to take Mike's run home.

In fact, in the past two days in the hospital, there was another thing that made Lin Zitan not know how to speak, and after Lin Shan went back that day, she probably didn't tell Zhang Jing that she was nervous and scared her.

So when Lin Zitan thought that this little girl might not appear again, she actually appeared again at the same time the next day, this time bringing them the side of the pot that people in Province F love to eat, and the girl said that it was made by her mother.

Lin Zitan carefully recalled the days when Lin Guodong used to stay at Lin Shan's house, and his cousin-in-law, that is, Lin Shan's mother. Oh, by the way, Lin Guodong should be Lin Shan's uncle by seniority.

His cousin-in-law has always ignored him, Lin Guodong knows that he is just staying overnight, and he is not embarrassed to eat at their house, of course, his cousin and sister-in-law have never invited him.

That is, a week after he was dismissed, he learned how to fry shrimp at their house, and in order to borrow someone's kitchen, he bought vegetables and seafood for a week, and only dinner that week was eaten at their house. Maybe it was because he had paid for the groceries, so the corners of his sister-in-law's slightly mean mouth at that time had some sparkling smiles.

"People are really different from people!" Lin Zitan couldn't help but smile bitterly when he thought of this. If he hadn't been the kind of smuggling and begging posture at that time, maybe my sister-in-law would have treated him like a stranger, a friend of my daughter's friend!

"What's wrong, Daniel, are you uncomfortable?" Li Manrui couldn't help but care when she saw Lin Zitan's expression in the rearview mirror.

"Oh, nothing, I'm thinking about something!" Lin Zitan replied lightly.

"Is Zhang Jing in love, I haven't seen him come to see you in the past two days?" Li Manrui saw that it was rare for the family to get along so harmoniously, so she asked without words.

"Uh-huh, no? I don't know. Lin Zitan deliberately wanted to pull away from this topic, because when Lin Shan came over for the last time last night, he happened to run into Li Manrui, who was about to leave, and he was afraid that Li Manrui would think too much.

"Well, there is no best, you are still young, you don't understand anything, you still focus on your studies, besides, the next school year is your most critical year, don't waste time on unnecessary things. Li Manrui knocked on the side of the tunnel.

"I know, don't worry, that girl was only arranged by Zhang Jing to deliver food for him yesterday!" Lin Zitan looked up at Li Manrui's back and explained reluctantly.

"Mom doesn't mean that, anyway, you just take care of yourself, Mom believes in you!" Li Manrui's voice was soft and dripping, as if he was a little aggrieved in his heart, which made Mike on the side look up and look deeply at Lin Zitan from the rearview mirror.

"yes, got it!"

Lin Zitan found that it was really difficult for him to communicate with Li Manrui, so he returned to his previous attitude of ignoring answers, so that Li Manrui did not dare to speak casually.

In the next nearly half an hour's drive, Li Manrui really didn't pay attention to Lin Guodong anymore, pointing fingers, which made him happy.

The black Mercedes sedan crosses the Williamsburg Bridge, passing Corona Park in Queens, a grassy golf course, and a large castle-like estate called Old Westbury Gardens.

This is the first time Lin Zitan has seen the scenery around New York in broad daylight, he used to go to work in other states, probably in the evening, when he walked out of the Holland Tunnel, the whole sky had already darkened, and it was already late at night when the minibus drove to the restaurant.

Every time I go back to New York, it's basically one or two o'clock in the morning, and I don't have a chance to see the scenery! Lin Zitan sighed while enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way!

Sitting in the comfortable back seat, Lin Zitan leaned back slightly, adjusted himself to a relaxed position as much as possible, and looked sideways at the picturesque scenery outside the car window. From today on, he will be the real forest, take the path he wants to take, live the life he wants to live, and achieve the achievements he must achieve!

The name Lin Guodong was originally his grandfather's expectation that he and his younger brother could become the pillars of the motherland, but they were tired of running for more than 20 years in order to survive, and in the end they could only die tragically in the surging waters of the United States, how ridiculous!

Let go of the past and start anew, now he wants to use the name Lin Zitan to start a more wonderful life! The so-called rich and talented people help the world, only when he is successful and famous, can he have the opportunity to become a real pillar of the country, and everything else is nonsense!
