Chapter 41: It's Too Hard to Be Foreign, So Let's Get a Divorce
Eleven knew that Shen Nanyan was angry.
She froze in place, thought for a long time, took a step, and walked slowly.
"I'm really busy. ”
"Then why is it here?"
"Mu Rong and I are good friends, we are friends, I should come. ”
"What about me?" Shen Nanyan's voice became deeper and deeper, and Eleven could feel the coldness emanating from him at the moment even if he lowered his head.
She pursed her lips and said nothing.
Shen Nanyan asked further.
"Why did you get out of Bai Zhi'an's car, and when did you have such a good relationship?"
Eleven's eyes moved slightly, she raised her head, and her eyes fell on Shen Nanyan's face.
"Do you mind?"
"You're my wife. ”
Eleven laughed at these simple words.
has been married for a year, this is what she has heard the most from Shen Nanyan.
She was his wife.
So?
Some words, Eleven wanted to find a suitable opportunity, the right occasion, and the two of them sat down and talked slowly, but at this moment.
Her light gaze fell on Shen Nanyan, and she slowly opened her lips: "Aren't you curious about what I've been busy with all this time?" I'm preparing for the IELTS exam and discussing with my tutor about going abroad. ”
"Going abroad?"
"Well, I'm still young, and I really like film and television, and going abroad is the right choice for me. ”
"Why didn't you tell me sooner? Studying abroad is no small thing. ”
Eleven smiled, his face was calm, and he didn't look shocked.
"It's not too late to say, and considering that I won't be back after going abroad for a short time, it will be too difficult to get along in a foreign country, so in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I decided. ”
At this point, Eleven paused for a few seconds.
"So I decided, let's get a divorce. ”
……
The word divorce, Eleven has made countless assumptions in his heart during this time.
She had thought about how her heart would collapse when she said these two words, and she had thought that she would choke and cry, but she never thought that she was so calm.
She loves Shen Nanyan.
From that year, he rushed into the fire to save her, from the time he took her to class, but she looked at his hand and forgot to write the paper, from the moment he said to his sister that he would marry her and take good care of her.
She has known this man for many years, been married for a year, and even if she is divorced now, she still loves him.
Feelings are never a few words, not to mention that she has loved him for so many years.
However, the marriage is too complicated and too tiring, and it is not enough for her to love Shen Nanyan.
Once she thought that as long as she married him, she would be able to make him fall in love with him with her own sincerity.
But now it's been a long time, and it's not working.
Divorce, for her, is to see the facts clearly, and for Shen Nanyan, it may be relief or light.
She once read a book that has a very classic sentence in the book: our whole life is to get rid of other people's expectations and find our true selves. I hope that each and every one of us can live the way we want.
She thought that the decision to divorce might be the first step for her to find herself.
Maybe she still loves Shen Nanyan after marriage, or maybe she still can't let go of this man who has lived in her heart since she was a teenager for the rest of her life, but that's just her own thing.
The divorce is to change the relationship from the influence of both her and Shen Nanyan to a unilateral impact on her.
The person opposite didn't speak, and Eleven lowered his eyes and didn't look at Shen Nanyan. She didn't know what he was thinking at the moment, but she knew that he needed time, time to think about what she said.
So under Shen Nanyan's silence, she spoke again, her voice soft.
"I know you need a little time to think about it, it's okay, I can wait, you can just call me when you're done. ”
Shen Nanyan finally spoke, his voice was low and deep, his brows were tightly locked, and it could be seen that he was extremely displeased.
"Eleven, I don't think you're in your mind right now, let's go home. ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and wanted to pull her, but Eleven took a step back first, and Shen Nanyan's outstretched hand was just hanging in the air.
Her calm and indifferent gaze fell on him, word by word.
"I've thought it through, every word I say now, every decision I make is well thought out. Let's get a divorce, Shen Nanyan. ”
His eyes were dark, and his eyes fell on her with a very purposeful look.
"Eleven, today is not April Fool's Day. ”
"I know. ”
"Do you know what you're talking about?"
"As I said, I thought about it. ”
Shen Nanyan suddenly grabbed her hand and blocked her whole person on the wall behind her.
"Inexplicably moving back to school, inexplicably deciding to study abroad, inexplicably avoiding me, inexplicably filing for divorce, this is what you are talking about?"
Be all abroad?
Eleven's heart sank a lot, and it turned out that her countless decisions to overturn and overturn and summarize again were just inexplicable to him.
She sighed in her heart, but her face was silent.
"You just think I'm inexplicable, but what I'm talking about about divorce is serious, you should think about it. ”
"I don't think about it. The man's voice suddenly increased, and his anger was obvious.
"Eleven, you're graduating from college soon, are you still a child? What does divorce mean? Do you think it's a child?"
"How many times do you want me to say it, I really want a divorce, I'm not joking with you, most of my things have been mailed to my sister in Clear Water Bay, and I have asked the lawyer to prepare the agreement on our divorce, and it won't be long before it will be conveyed to you. ”
The speed of her speech was already not fast, but at this moment, in order to let Shen Nanyan know her seriousness, she deliberately slowed down her tone.
Until this moment, Shen Nanyan finally determined that the divorce was serious.
In other words, she had already made a decision when she moved out of Clear Water Bay and used her studies as an excuse to go back to school.
"Why?"
There was silence for a long time, and he whispered.
Eleven had already thought that he would ask again: "As I just said, I decided to study abroad, and considering that I will not come back after going abroad for a short time, it is not suitable for you and me to get along in a foreign country, so in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I decided to divorce." ”
"Excuses. ”
“……”
Eleven licked her lips, Shen Nanyan's attitude was too strong and domineering, and the two of them got along in such a posture, and the sense of oppression was too strong, so that she didn't even dare to look at Shen Nanyan's gaze.
"Because of what happened to the Ye Group some time ago?"
Shen Nanyan was referring to Mo's suppression of the Ye family.
Eleven thought about it and told truthfully: "I was indeed a little depressed when I knew it at the time, after all, it was my sister, but then I figured it out and it was nothing." "That's not the main reason she wants to get a divorce.
"What's that?"
Eleven didn't understand what kind of psychology Shen Nanyan had in rejecting her divorce, and he cared so much about the reason why she proposed divorce.
He doesn't love her, and after a year of marriage, although they can't talk about how cold they are, whether they get along well or are intimate, it's more of a businesslike task.
People like Shen Nanyan should be very reluctant to this marriage.
Let's not talk about how deep his feelings are for Mo Xiaojing, and don't say whether he has any plans to further develop with Mo Xiaojing, it stands to reason that she is filing for divorce at this moment, and for him, she is finally ushering in a relaxed and free liberation.
She hung her head: "It's nothing, it's just that I want a divorce." ”
"Nonsense. ”
Shen Nanyan's reprimand sounded above his head, obviously not agreeing to the divorce.
Eleven thought for a long time and was about to speak, but Shen Nanyan's phone rang first.
"Hey, Mom. ”
“……”
"Okay, I'll go back right away. ”
“……”
"yes, I see. ”
……
The man picked up the phone and hung up, the whole process was only about a minute, and Eleven was still trapped by him.
"Go, come home with me. He was tough and domineering, as if he hadn't listened to her.
Eleven stood still, and Shen Nanyan's mother just now made her clearly know that the home she was returning to at this moment was not Qingshuiwan.
"I'm not going, you can go by yourself. Her red lips opened lightly, and her speech was normal, but she was full of detachment.
Shen Nanyan's eyes deepened again and again: "Mom asked me to go back, let's go back first, as for the contradictions between us, we will talk about it later." ”
Contradiction?
Eleven's tone was difficult, and she opened her mouth again to explain to Shen Nanyan: "There is no contradiction between us, I have carefully considered wanting to divorce, and I will not go to your parents' place again." ”
She divorced one by one, refused one by one, and Shen Nanyan knew that she was stubborn.
Wen Wanrong's voice on the phone was very anxious, and he didn't have time to delay now.
From the conversation just now, and Eleven's sudden desire for a divorce, everything was chaotic in Shen Nanyan's place.
In the end, he said to Eleven: "I won't agree to the divorce, I just want you to play around and play with the child's temper." I'll come to your school tomorrow to find you, and we'll find a place to talk. ”
……
There were only eleven people left in the corridor, and Shen Nanyan's residual aura was still surrounding, and she slowly squatted down against the wall.
Playing with children's temper?
It turns out that all the turbulence in her heart, all the sadness and coldness in his heart, is it just a child's temper?
Talk?
She couldn't figure out what she could talk about between him and Shen Nanyan.
After a year of hidden marriage, he obeyed the request of his elders to marry her, and he was good to her but had no love.
She was up and down in this marriage, saved enough disappointment and despair, and finally decided to divorce, but he had this attitude?
Shen Nanyan's tough attitude made Eleven begin to reflect.
Reflect on why he is like this? Worried that the old man of the Shen family will not be able to explain it? Or is it that the divorce was proposed by her and his strong self-esteem as a successful man has been frustrated, which is why he reacted so violently?
Thinking of this, she silently picked up the handbag of her footsteps and slowly left the corridor, perhaps, she should indeed talk to Shen Nanyan, but not to save this marriage, but to talk about his self-esteem.
……
Bidding farewell to Mu Rong and returning to school, Eleven received the service of Chi Man's five-star treatment.
Rubbing shoulders again, pouring water, and greetings.
The conversation with Shen Nanyan had consumed too much of her energy.
"Manman, I'm just doing it, you don't need to be like this, go and see the signature Mu Rong gave you. ”
Chi Man still looked grateful: "Although you are a gesture, it is a great favor to me." ”
"It's not that serious. ”
Chi Man's voice was full of emotion: "You helped me today, if there is anything that needs me in the future, I will definitely go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire, and it is my duty." ”
If it was usual, Shi would definitely be amused by Chi Man, but today, she really didn't have any thoughts.
"Okay, okay, I'll definitely look for you if you need it in the future, now, I'll go to sleep first, I'm a little sleepy." ”
Chi Man gave way.
"I'm sleepy, okay, then you go to sleep for a while, I'll be quiet and won't disturb you. ”
Eleven got up from his chair: "Then I'll go lie down for a while." ”
After she finished talking to Chi Man, she climbed into bed and lay down, the thick curtain of the bed created a small world for her.
Lying flat, it stands to reason that she would have a lot of things in her mind at this time, but no.
Whether it's about Shen Nanyan or about the Shen family, there's nothing, her mind is blank, she can't think of anything, she doesn't remember anything, only her groggy head.
Under these circumstances, Eleven had expected her to fall asleep quickly, but she had no sleep all night.
obviously didn't think about anything, obviously didn't have a tear, but after filing for divorce with Shen Nanyan, she stayed up all night.
……
The next morning, Eleven got out of bed at seven o'clock and stayed awake all night, her face pale and her lips white.
Chi Man was still asleep, she washed lightly, changed her clothes, and put on light makeup.
Law firms.
Eleven looked at her lawyer, Xuan Yeshuo, and slowly spoke: "Hello, I contacted you before. ”
"Miss Ye, right? Xuan Yeshuo was wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, with a handsome face, and was looking at her.
Eleven hummed: "Gu Shaoyan asked me to contact you about the divorce agreement." ”
"Well, he called me. ”
Xuan Yeshuo said this, and it was easy to communicate.
"Then I'll put it bluntly, the divorce agreement is very simple, we have no children, no custody issues. Although my husband has a lot of property in his name, it is all owned by him before marriage, and the only thing that is related is that the house we lived in after marriage, Clear Water Bay, has our name written on it. What I need to tell you is this house in Clear Water Bay, I don't want anything, I go out of the house, you help me write this clearly on the agreement. ”
Xuan Yeshuo held the information provided by Eleven in his hand, looked at it for a long time, he raised his head, and his puzzled gaze fell on her: "Miss Ye chose to leave the house?"
Eleven jaw: "Hmm." ”
Xuan Yeshuo tilted his head, his eyebrows furrowed: "Your marriage to Mr. Shen Nanyan, it stands to reason that you can obtain property, after all, you have been married for a year, and you have no fault." ”
Eleven bowed his head and put his hand on the necklace lanyard around his neck.
On it is the wedding ring between her and Shen Nanyan, when they got married, they were extremely low-key, and they just held a family banquet.
Shen Nanyan gave her this ring after the family banquet, and she couldn't wear the ring on her hand in a hidden marriage, but she cherished this ring very much, so she found a way to hang the ring around her neck, and never left her body for a year.
Thinking of those past now, Eleven has a faint smile on the corner of his lips.
"Lawyer Xuan, I have decided to give up, what is the need for nostalgia for property. ”
Xuan Yeshuo: "In this way, is Miss Ye really sure that she doesn't want anything when she leaves the house?"
Eleven lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Well, you just need to prepare as I said." ”
She said so, and Xuan Yeshuo didn't say much.
Quickly according to her request, the divorce agreement was printed out and handed to her.
"This is a divorce agreement prepared according to Miss Ye's request, see if there are any changes that need to be made?"
Eleven read it from beginning to end: "No problem, it's good, thank you." ”
"Miss Ye is polite. ”
She got up from the couch: "Then I'll go first, and I'll contact you when there's anything in the future." ”
"Good. ”
Coming out of the law firm, Eleven received a call from Shen Nanyan.
On the phone, Shen Nanyan's voice was a little tired, and he didn't seem to be in a very good state: "I'm downstairs in your dormitory, you come down and let's go to dinner, and talk about yesterday's topic by the way." ”
Eleven didn't expect Shen Nanyan to go to her school so early.
She stood on the side of the road with the phone, hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm not at school, I'm outside, you come to the Luna restaurant, and we can meet there directly." ”
There was silence on the other side of the phone for a while, and then there was a voice: "Wait for me there." ”
……
Restaurant.
Shen Nanyan came in and saw Eleven, she chose the window position, at this moment, she was tilting her head to look out of the window, looking at him from here, the picture was beautiful and quiet.
He stepped over and bent over as Eleven looked back at him, bending down and bowing his head, leaving a shallow kiss on her forehead.
Eleven's expression froze, maintaining the movement of turning back.
Shen Nanyan, as usual, walked across from her and sat down.
"What do you want to eat?" he asked.
"Either way. She replied casually, and the hand under the table subconsciously tightened.
Shen Nanyan was overly calm, and everything acted as if there were no problems between them, and she did not file for divorce.
This was an attitude that she didn't like very much, which made her feel that Shen Nanyan didn't take her words to heart at all. 、
Although she can do it, Shen Nanyan began to order.
After a meal, Eleven finally couldn't help but speak.
"Let's talk about yesterday. ”
She sat up straight, as a way to express her seriousness about the matter.
Shen Nanyan put down the tableware slowly and methodically, and finally set his eyes on her.
"Good. ”
Eleven took a deep breath to calm her emotions.
"As I told you yesterday, I decided to study abroad, and we have many difficulties in running a marriage in two places, so I want to divorce, while you and I are still young, and now the divorce will not affect us too much. ”
"I don't think it's hard to separate the two places, and if that's the reason you want to get a divorce, Eleven, I won't agree to that. ”
"But I find it difficult. Her eyes were silent, her words were not serious, but there was a clear persistence.
"If you find it difficult, I can go abroad to see you once a month, and we can stay together for a few days, and it won't be much different from when you were in school at Linda. ”
How many days do you go abroad to spend with her every month?
If it was in the past, Eleven would have been overwhelmed, because she knew how busy Shen Nanyan's work was, and how difficult it was to make time to see her every month.
But now, these words will only make her feel oppressive, Shen Nanyan's careful kindness has never been reflected on the surface, just say that this time she filed for divorce.
From beginning to end, he didn't deeply analyze what she was thinking, and even when he refused to divorce, he did so in a businesslike way and in a tone.
Eleven remembered that her sister once asked, what was the reason why she completely wanted to end her marriage with Shen Nanyan?
Now that I think about it, there must be a strange way they get along with each other.
After being silent for a long time, Eleven still opened his lips to Shen Nanyan in the end.
"Nanyan, what do you think of our married life this year?"
"It's very harmonious, and we haven't had much of a conflict this year. ”
It's hard to imagine such a word appearing to describe a couple's relationship.
"Yes, we are very harmonious, if it weren't for the fact that I am a lover, I would have felt that there would be no problem, but Nanyan, we are husband and wife, which couple have you ever seen like us?"
Shen Nanyan's inky eyes locked on her.
"What do you mean?"
Eleven pursed her lips and changed her sitting posture to make her whole person more relaxed.
"What I mean is that our marriage shouldn't have existed in the first place, and a year is enough to prove it, and we don't need to waste any more time on it. ”
"Why do I have a completely different opinion from you, in my opinion we get along very well, we have similar temperaments, I respect you, you respect me, we hit it off in life and rest, we never quarrel over trivial things, I have always felt that we have gotten along very well this year, I thought you and I had the same idea. ”
Eleven smiled when he lowered his eyes, but his eyes were cold.
"You know what? I don't like to go to bed early, I like to stay up late. It was only in the dead of night that I was able to write a good script and cut out the film that I was most satisfied with, and I didn't like Western food, I preferred white egg porridge to bacon burgers;
Unintentionally landing on the cake on the table, which had never moved, Eleven chuckled softly.
"Also, I don't like sweets, and I haven't touched my cake for a long time. ”
Eleven has never said these words, and if it weren't for Shen Nanyan's repeated disagreement with the divorce, she might never say these words for the rest of her life.
How to say it, it is her own decision to make changes for Shen Nanyan, and it is also her own choice to accommodate him to live after marriage, even if she comes to this point now, she has no reason to push all of this on Shen Nanyan.
In Shen Nanyan's complicated and unbelievable gaze, she slowed down her tone and said sentence by sentence: "You said that we have a harmonious marriage and have not quarreled over trivial matters, but ah, this is not what husband and wife should be, maybe this is a very good state in your cognition, but in my case, Nanyan, rather than husband and wife, I think another word is more appropriate for us: roommates." ”
An endless atmosphere of silence circulated between the two, and after Eleven's words fell, Shen Nanyan didn't speak.
It wasn't until Eleven was about to get distracted that Shen Nanyan spoke up: "Why do you suddenly ask so many questions, is it because you have other views on this marriage, or do you feel that this marriage restricts your freedom?"
Eleven raised his head in surprise, thinking for a long time before he understood the meaning of Shen Nanyan's words.
"Do you think I decided to divorce you because I fell in love with someone else?"
