Chapter 13: An Awkward Meeting
Song Xijun put down the phone. Looking out the window, irritable, restless but full of anticipation.
He deliberately delayed the time, just to give himself more time. Give sanity some more time. Deliberately choosing it at noon will make people with a purpose feel jealous! Is she a person with a purpose? If she does, she will definitely be disappointed! Thinking that she might approach him with a purpose, Song Xijun exuded murderous aura all over his body, but his heart felt as if he had been stabbed.
And Wen Qingshui, who was being worried about someone at this moment, put down the phone happily. It's okay this time, I can finally return this favor. But she was a little embarrassed to think of how embarrassed she was that day. Fortunately, Gao Yi didn't say anything when he saw her the next day. A gentleman who is a gentleman of the army, he will not mention the events of that day on Sunday!
After packing up his things, Wen Qingshui and everyone said hello and prepared to get off work.
"Yo, Qingshui, are you still there? Get out quickly! You are so calm and hold on until the last minute. If you have an appointment, you will leave early, and the leader is not here, and no one will give you a small report if you leave a few minutes early!"
Regarding what she said, Wen Qingshui only thought she was joking. These girls don't know that she is divorced, so they make fun of her if they have nothing to do. She was irritable at first, but now she is relieved that it won't disturb her good mood. Wen Qingshui smiled and greeted Xiao Liu and entered the elevator.
"Qingshui?"
A familiar voice came, and Wen Qingshui froze for a moment holding the handlebar. It's just that this scene, this time, is like a dream.
"Well, my mom called me today and asked me why I didn't go back!"
Wen Qingshui turned around in a daze, and sure enough, it was Leng Yueming. He lowered his head and looked away.
"I know you weren't worried about her, so you didn't tell her about us. I said that I have been very busy lately, and I happened to be free this week, and I wanted to go back. You don't blame me for making the decision, do you?"
Such a meeting, such a reason, Leng Yueming also felt very embarrassed. He couldn't actually sort out his own thoughts. When I first got divorced, I felt like a relief. After a long time, I feel that life is more boring. It's not even as good as when two people are arguing together. After seeing Wen Qingshui last time, he thought a lot about it when he went back. He couldn't even figure out how the two of them had come to this point. It happened that Wen Qingshui's mother called, and he subconsciously agreed to go back and have a look.
"Why bother you, my mother knows that you are busy, I will go back on Saturday and say that you just happened to work overtime. That's my mom, and I'll take care of him. Don't bother with it. ”
"Qingshui, I'——。 Although we are like this now, we are still friends after all, and I hope that my mother can come out soon. ”
"Don't you think your words are sarcastic?" Wen Qingshui didn't say this.
At this time, it happened to be the rush hour after work, and the crowd in the office room was surging.
"Qingshui, the old husband and wife are still on an appointment?" Haha!" Xiao Liu pulled Meihua out.
"Qingshui, next time you let your husband bring flowers, it's okay to be empty-handed. Bye-bye!"
A few colleagues walked over with a chatter and laughter. There was even more unspeakable embarrassment in the air.
"Qingshui, there were some things that I didn't do well before, so don't be angry anymore. Even now that we are divorced, I hope you are doing well, and I hope your mother will worry less. And Dad left suddenly, and I don't want her to be sad because of you. I've already promised my mom that I won't make my own decisions next time. If you're okay this week, I'll pick you up at nine o'clock on Saturday morning!"
Wen Qingshui has mixed tastes, and his brain is buzzing. She didn't understand what the point of him doing this was the way he was now. No matter how hard it is, you can't make your mother uncomfortable. If he is willing to go back with him to fulfill his lie, why should he not do it?
"Qingshui, aren't you hungry after work, go eat something!"
Leng Yueming saw that Wen Qingshui did not insist on opposing anymore and changed the topic.
"No, no, I made an appointment!"
"Oh, then, I'll go first!"
Leng Yueming drove away, Wen Qingshui sat in his car, and was stunned for a long time before starting the car. She didn't understand why Leng Yueming would do this. I don't understand why I should make a trip when I can talk about it on the phone.
She was even more flustered at the moment than she had been before. The words she said to Lin Ying that day seemed to open a gap in her closed heart. But then she thought of more problems that couldn't be solved practically.
Things that were once not handled well, now go back, and the obstacles are unimaginable. The problem is still there, and even more. Only the father who most approved of this marriage is gone. After so many things, I am afraid that there are more estrangements than before. As the saying goes, it is difficult to complete the broken mirror. It would be an eternal thorn in the hearts of two people. So which of these things can she solve?
She took several deep breaths and felt very depressed. I couldn't breathe, and my brain was groggy from lack of oxygen. She pulled out a bottle of water from the back seat, opened the lid and drank it down. After her father left, it was her new habit to have water in the car. Sometimes she can't control herself, so she desperately drinks water, as if with water, she won't suffocate due to lack of oxygen.
But at this moment, she drank a bottle of water, and she did not find peace.
Barely getting home, the whole person almost collapsed, and his heart was in a panic. She couldn't balance herself, she couldn't think about it, and she couldn't divert her attention from something else.
When I opened the refrigerator, it was empty, and there was no ice cream at all. Looking back, she saw the bottle of red wine she had opened last time.
Decisively poured a full cup and drank it all. The bitter taste filled the mouth, burning the esophagus, and the feeling of dizziness rushed to the brain in an instant. The feeling of suffocation eased a little.
She put down the cup and walked into the bathroom, the hot water ironing every inch of her skin, and it seemed to iron her soul. Fingers slid over her waist and around her neck, and she finally relaxed. didn't wipe the water on his body, he directly wrapped a loose robe, and let the water on his body wet the cotton thread of the home clothes. Regardless of it, he poured another glass.
Only then did Wen Qingshui notice a hurried knock on the door.
"Qingshui, Qingshui, I know you're inside, I see you, open the door! ”
Wen Qingshui drank all the wine in the cup before opening the door. Gao Yi's eager face crashed in.
"Are you taking a shower?"
"What do you think I'm doing?"
In fact, Gao Yi did want to be crooked, and he saw her coming back through the window, staggering. He was so afraid of what stupid things she would do!
"Come in!"
Knowing that Wen Qingshui has a little cleanliness habit, Gao Yi usually wears home clothes, and he didn't even change his shoes in a hurry today. Sitting down on the sofa, Gao Yi saw the mottled watermarks on Wen Qingshui's clothes and the droplets of water dripping from his hair, his face was decadent and tired, and he was sitting opposite him with a glass of red wine.
"Would you like a drink?"
As soon as Wen Qingshui raised his hand, the wide robe was a little loose, revealing fair skin and a looming career line. Gao Yi instantly blushed and was embarrassed.
Gao Yi didn't look at the woman in front of him and sighed. I stood up and walked to the bathroom, where the moisture had not dissipated, and there were water droplets on the floor and walls. Without saying a word, Gao Yi walked out of the bathroom with a towel and a hair dryer.
"Rub it again, beware of colds. ”
Wen Qingshui drank the wine in the glass again before taking the towel. While wiping his hair, he looked at Gao Yi. His cheeks were rosy, and his eyes were a little wandering.
Wen Qingshui is a typical good drink, and now it is obviously more straightforward to speak. At the moment, she seemed to be awake, but in fact she was completely immersed in her emotions.
