Chapter 165: I'm Just Messing On Your Youth
Weekends used to be Xia Xizhi's favorite day. At that time, she was able to nest with Ji Xiuyu and enjoy the quiet time that belonged to the two of them. And now, it is the time she wants to avoid the most.
In the courtyard, Xia Xizhi sat at the stone table, quietly looking in a certain direction. The courtyard was very quiet, and only the sound of the autumn wind could be heard.
Holding his phone tightly, Xia Xizhi pursed his lips and didn't say a word. I just received a call from the old man, who persuaded her to take the initiative to file for divorce. Otherwise, the death of Xia's company will only come faster.
For her, Xia's company contains too much of her hard work and hope. Seeing it being knocked down, Xia Xizhi was naturally unwilling. But she knows better that she can't let go of marriage.
According to her understanding of Ji Xiuyu, once she chooses to divorce and leave this home, I am afraid she will never have the opportunity to step into it again. At that time, she and Ji Xiuyu would completely become strangers.
If Ji Xiuyu really doesn't love her, she can leave without nostalgia, and she won't keep this meaningless marriage. But she didn't want to bury her happiness because of Xia Zhengguo. So, she stubbornly persisted.
The servant stepped forward and said with a smile, "Madam, I have already made dinner, so I'll go back first." ”
Xia Xizhi came back to his senses and mumbled: "Okay." ”
The servant nodded and left. Xia Xizhi still sat there, immersed in his sight.
In the evening, the sky was getting darker and darker, and Xia Xizhi returned to the back room. After serving all the meals to the table, Xia Xizhi sat on the seat, looking at the empty seats, and a touch of sadness arose.
Sighing, Xia Xizhi was just about to move his chopsticks when there was a sound at the gate. Xia Xizhi raised his head, saw Ji Xiuyu, and got up in surprise: "Xiuyu, are you back?"
"Nope. Ji Xiuyu replied with a pity.
Hearing this, Xia Xizhi hurriedly got up and said with a smile: "Then I'll go and serve you dinner." While speaking, Xia Xizhi hurriedly ran to the kitchen. Looking at the smile on her face, Ji Xiuyu stood there silently.
Five minutes later, Xia Xizhi and Ji Xiuyu sat opposite each other, eating each other's own meals. Looking at him secretly, Xia Xizhi didn't expect that he would go home for dinner. After that day, it was the first time the two had eaten at the same table.
After eating a little, Xia Xizhi smiled and looked for a topic: "Xiuyu ......"
"When I go home, I don't mean I accept you. Ji Xiuyu calmly interrupted her.
The smile condensed on his cheeks for a few seconds, and Xia Xizhi lowered his eyes: "I know." You already know the situation of the Xia family, right? We are desperate. ”
Ji Xiuyu was silent and calmly ate his meal. Looking at his expression, Xia Xizhi took a deep breath and finally said, "Grandpa hopes that I can take the initiative to divorce you, but I refused." ”
Looking at her, Ji Xiuyu narrowed his eyes: "It seems that you are very attached to my property." ”
Shaking his head, Xia Xizhi decisively denied: "No." I won't get a divorce just because I still love you. I don't want to be forced to separate us because of my dad. ”
Listening to the reason she gave, Ji Xiuyu sneered: "Is your insistence meaningful?Xia Xizhi, do you think I will still love you, my enemy's daughter?"
The Enemy's Daughter...... This heavy identity weighed her down and couldn't breathe. Biting his lip and being silent for a moment, Xia Xizhi raised his head: "If you don't try, how do you know?" ”
Ji Xiuyu put down his chopsticks, stood up, and said coldly: "You can insist, but I can also answer you clearly, I won't love you anymore." Leaving this, Ji Xiuyu turned around and went upstairs.
Sitting at the dining table, Xia Xizhi looked at his seat with a bitter smile on his lips. Without speaking, Xia Xizhi continued to eat, but it was tasteless.
In the upstairs study, Ji Xiuyu stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, his hands behind his back. Looking at the dark night, his heart was mixed. Seeing Xia Xizhi's stubborn refusal to give up his marriage, he was moved, but he did not allow himself to reveal his superfluous feelings.
He didn't deny that he still loved her, but he couldn't accept that he loved her. Looking at the stars in the night sky, Ji Xiuyu said hoarsely: "When she gets tired, she will leave." ”
The villa has been quiet, and Ji Xiuyu and Xia Xizhi are staying in their respective spaces. There was a knock on the door, and Ji Xiuyu didn't seem to hear it. There was a knock on the door, but there was no sound.
Ji Xiuyu raised his head and frowned. Get up and step out of your desk and open the door. I was just about to walk out, but I saw a tray on the floor at the door. A cup of coffee and a glass of milk on a tray.
After standing for a few seconds, Ji Xiuyu's expression returned to indifference, stepped directly over the coffee, and left indifferently.
Hearing the sound, Xia Xizhi came out of the guest room. Looking at the two drinks that were placed there as they were, Xia sighed silently.
"No matter what you do, my relationship with you will only get worse. Ji Xiuyu's cold voice came from behind him.
Xia Xizhi turned his head and said with a light smile: "I just want to fulfill my wife's obligations." ”
Coming to her and looking down at him condescendingly, Ji Xiuyu replied expressionlessly: "It's a pity that in my eyes, you have lost the qualification to be my wife." ”
"You're still in love with me, aren't you? Otherwise, you wouldn't have filed for divorce. Xia Xizhi raised his voice and said.
The hand landed on her cheek, and the movement appeared gentle. But his eyes were cold and piercing: "I'm just trampling on your youth." Since you want to take my wife's status, I will fulfill you. When you are old, kick it away, and at that time, you will have no way to retreat at all, and you will be alone. ”
His face was pale, and Xia Xizhi's eyelashes trembled. She didn't expect that Ji Xiuyu had not taken the initiative to file for divorce these days, which was the reason.
"My dad is my dad, I'm me. You know that I don't have a deep relationship with him, and he has never treated me as a daughter, why do you still treat me like this?" Xia Xizhi endured the distress and spoke slowly.
If Xia Zhengguo loves her and cares about her, then she feels that she deserves to bear Ji Xiuyu's hatred. But in his eyes, she has always been just a tool and a pawn, and he has never treated her well. In this case, why should the damage be inflicted on her?
"You have his blood in your veins, and you are a part of him. You should have borne all this. Ji Xiuyu said ruthlessly, "Whether you want to spoil yourself or not, you decide for yourself." ”
Leaving these words, Ji Xiuyu let go of her and walked into the study. Slammed the door shut, Xia Xizhi stood there, looking lonely.
Thinking of his words, Xia Xizhi burst into tears. "Why, it's so unfair to me, why ......," Xia Xizhi muttered to himself in pain.
Bending down and picking up the already cold coffee milk on the ground, Xia Xizhi walked downstairs with heavy legs. At this moment, Xia Xizhi felt that he was abandoned by the whole world.
