Chapter 2: I won't quit this marriage
"Ding-dong. "The doorbell rings and the takeout has arrived.
Xu Qingmo stood up and walked to the door, the woman also knew that she couldn't see outsiders in her clothes, so she hurriedly followed Xu Qingmo to the door, hid behind the door, and looked at Xu Qingmo.
Pretty smart.
Xu Qingmo smiled, opened the door and paid, and brought the pizza in: "It's breakfast." β
At the dining table, Xu Qingmo gobbled up, and the woman chewed with a small mouthful, but the atmosphere eased up.
"My name is Xu Qingmo, what's your name?" Xu Qingmo took a big bite of pizza, "I forgot you don't remember your name, how about I call you one?"
"This is my first time in Jinling City, and it is the first time I have met you, so I will call you Xiaochu. β
The woman tilted her head and thought about it, opened her small mouth, whispered "Xiao Chu", and then smiled and nodded, her eyes bent into crescents.
Finally spoken!
Xu Qingmo was overjoyed, and then talked to Xiao Chu, but found that Xiao Chu could only say these two words now, and his language ability had not fully recovered.
Not having clothes is a big problem, Xu Qingmo can go out to buy dirty clothes, or he can help Xiao Chu buy them, but the embarrassing thing is that he doesn't know Xiao Chu's size and model.
"I'm going out to buy clothes now, do you know your size?" Xu Qingmo gestured to Xiao Chu, his eyes unconsciously aimed at the magnificent waves.
Xiao Chu's face flushed, he covered his chest with both hands, and finally stood up with gritted teeth, clutched the corners of his shirt with both hands, so that the shirt was close to the graceful carcass, and his curves were exposed, and he turned in a circle in front of Xu Qingmo.
One, two, three......
36οΌ24οΌ34οΌ
The measurements were quickly collected, but Xu Qingmo's nose was completely collapsed, and nosebleeds spurted out.
Xiao Chu stopped with a blushing face, and when he saw Xu Qingmo's embarrassed appearance, he immediately laughed, as bright as the sun.
"I went shopping for clothes, it was probably a bit long, and I didn't come back until noon. Xu Qingmo fled.
Why didn't you go back until noon to buy clothes? Because Xu Qingmo didn't just come out to buy clothes.
He quit the mercenary world and returned to China thousands of miles just for one thing - to get married!
Xu Qingmo was taken out of China by the old immortal since he was a child, brought into the mercenary world, and became famous all the way, and to this day, Xu Qingmo is already the uncrowned king of the mercenary world - the mercenary king!
When Xu Qingmo was seven years old, the old immortal protected a Chinese businessman, and the two became close friends at first sight, and they also ordered a baby kiss, and the merchant left a jade pendant, so that Xu Qingmo could return to China to find his family when he became an adult, and he could marry his granddaughter by showing the jade pendant.
At that time, Xu Qingmo was soft-spoken, and it was useless to oppose it, but now that he has grown up, he heard that the businessman has died, and he can't control him anymore, so he naturally wants to come back and withdraw from the marriage.
Why did you get married?
Because in Xu Qingmo's memory, the ugly situation of the businessman has changed color, what can his granddaughter look like?
It is estimated that it is a shy flower in the closed moon, and the fish and geese are sunk, but it is just ugly that the moon is shy and the flowers are sunk, and the fish and geese are sunk.
Take the jade pendant and find the address that Lao Immortal told him, a luxury manor on the outskirts of Jinling City!
β¦β¦
"Ruochu hasn't come back yet?"
"No, I don't know where my sister went, she will spend the night out like an iceberg?"
"Don't call the police for the time being, send someone to look for it, and don't do it on the company's side, otherwise it will cause a riot. β
"I've already let Uncle Wu go, Mom, don't worry, my sister will be fine, I'd better deal with the man outside, is he the one who ordered a baby kiss with my sister?"
"He has a jade pendant, that's him. β
"How could grandpa be ...... back then? Order such a family affair for your sister?"
"I'm also very curious, how many heroes and talents your grandfather has seen, why did he choose this kid that we have never heard of...... I've hung him long enough, and I'll go down to see him. β
There was a sound of footsteps on the spiral staircase, and a woman who still had charm stepped on high heels and went downstairs, dressed gracefully and luxuriously, with an expressionless face and a noble temperament, as if she had received a queen from humble people.
On the luxurious leather sofa in the hall, Xu Qingmo sat upright, not sitting for half an hour and looking lazy and tired.
In fact, Xu Qingmo really wanted to lie down, eat the crystal grapes on the coffee table, and wait slowly, it didn't matter if it was dark.
He is here to withdraw from the marriage, and the party who always loses is reasonable, so he can only be polite and hope that the woman will not be angry.
Seeing the woman coming, Xu Qingmo stood up, this should be the mother of his fiancΓ©e.
"Hello Auntie, my name is Xu Qingmo. After introducing himself with a smile, Xu Qingmo didn't know how to mention the divorce, and was a little embarrassed for a while, reached into the bag, and prepared to take out the jade pendant.
The woman signaled that she was not in a hurry, sat opposite Xu Qingmo, and said calmly: "Just come to Jinling, have you ever been to the Jinling Cemetery? What about the Compassion Temple? Or go and see the maple leaves of Qiuming Mountain? Jinling has many scenic spots, you can go and see." β
"Thank you Auntie for your concern, I just came to Jinling, and I haven't been to these places yet. Xu Qingmo responded politely, thinking about how to speak.
The woman raised her eyebrows, revealing disdain: "So, as soon as you come to Jinling, you can't wait to come to my Lin family?"
Xu Qingmo felt the disdain of the lady in front of him, but he didn't know why, he just said respectfully: "If you have a concern, you must solve it first before you can rest assured." β
"Hehe, what a concern. The woman frowned coldly, thinking of a dirt bun, finally came to a metropolis like Jinling, but did not play non-stop, impatient to run to talk about marriage, I am afraid that my heart and mind want to climb the high branches of my house, and the typical toad wants to eat swan meat.
"Look at your dark complexion, you usually spend a lot of time in the sun. And the woman said.
Xu Qingmo said with a smile: "Yes, in our industry, we are exposed to the wind and sun every day, and we can only have this complexion, but since we are back, we will raise it, although it will not become much whiter, but it will not be so dark forever." β
Mercenaries rarely fight in cities, most of them fight in tropical rainforests, deserts, and other harsh environments, and their skin will inevitably be tanned into black charcoal.
It's just that Xu Qingmo's words changed when they fell into the second middle school, she thought, in this era, in addition to farmers and migrant workers, what other professions have to be exposed to the sun every day?
Xu Qingmo stood up again, took out the jade pendant, and prepared to return it to the Lin family.
But his action caused a misunderstanding again, and the woman said coldly: "I don't agree to this marriage, and you don't have a jade pendant." β
Xu Qingmo was stunned, he thought he would hear the words that he couldn't withdraw from the marriage, but he didn't expect this woman to think the same as himself, that dare to be good, and hit it off, but the woman's words behind him made him frown.
"I don't know what the relationship between Grandpa Ruochu and your elders is, I don't know why he is blind and takes a fancy to you, and I don't want to know, I won't let my woman be pushed into the fire pit, so I won't agree to this family business. β
"It's impossible for a toad to eat swan meat, and you can't marry Ruochu, don't daydream. β
Xu Qingmo wanted to explain that he was actually with you for the same purpose, but when he saw the woman's indifferent and disdainful expression, he couldn't open his mouth.
The mercenary king is a toad, and he has traveled thousands of miles to return to China to covet your Lin family's property?
Xu Qingmo wanted to laugh, although the Lin family is very powerful in Jinling City, and the Lin Group is also among the top 50 in China, but even the presidents of the world's top 50 have to be polite when they see themselves!
Although most of his property was taken away by the old immortal pit before returning to China, it is not something that a woman from the Jinling Lin family can mock.
"If Grandpa Chu died four years ago, this family business would no longer exist, and this jade pendant would be useless, give it to you, sell it for money, and it will be enough for you to build a big house in the countryside and marry a village girl to live a good life. β
The woman looked at Xu Qingmo, who was motionless, and continued: "What, it's too little?
Xu Qingmo held the jade pendant in his hand, his eyebrows lowered, and he chuckled: "Why?"
"Why? It is natural for a toad not to be able to eat swan meat, and why? If you are the president of the Lin Group at the beginning, your net worth, talent, and appearance are not worthy of anything. β
"What are you? farmer, migrant worker, mud legs, and you want to marry Ruochu? You walk in this door and make this sofa, I am too dirty, I will have to resurface the floor and replace the sofa later!"
"I see. Xu Qingmo let out a long breath, as if he had made some decision.
"It's good to understand, people like you, go back and work hard to farm, work hard to move bricks, maybe you can come to Jinling to travel in a few decades, don't be delusional now, this is not a world you can set foot in." β
The woman kept humiliating the young man in front of her word by word, every word was a sharp blade that cut people's hearts, she knew very well that people of this age had too much senseless blood, and he would definitely take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage if he provoked him so much, and even broke the jade pendant and left angrily.
That's the best, you don't need this young man's money anymore, and when you talk about it in the future, it can be said that he took the initiative to drop the jade and withdraw from the marriage.
The woman stared at Xu Qingmo, waiting for him to open his mouth to withdraw from the marriage.
"Huh. Xu Qingmo suddenly smiled and showed a hearty smile: "Actually, you misunderstood, I came to Jinling this time to return the jade pendant and withdraw from the marriage." β
Silence, dead silence!
"What, you say it again?" the woman was in disbelief.
"I'm really here to get out of the marriage, and I never thought about marrying your daughter from the beginning to the end. Xu Qingmo said again.
The woman raised her eyebrows, this mud leg wanted to save face, knowing that there was no way to do it, she simply said that she was here to withdraw from the marriage, but she would not expose it, this was exactly the result she wanted.
She took a sip, and the atmosphere in the hall soothed.
But the next moment, the air throughout the manor froze.
Xu Qingmo put away his smile, became serious, and said word by word: "I'm sorry to tell you a piece of news, I regret it." β
"You are right, the Lin family has a big business, my fiancΓ©e is still the president of the Lin Group, I can enjoy a lifetime of glory if I marry her, why should I withdraw from such a good marriage?"
"I regret it, this soul, I won't retreat. Xu Qingmo repeated.
The woman began to believe that the young man had really come to get out of the marriage at first, but her own words angered him, and things went in a completely direction.
There was a sense of remorse in her heart, and it was all her own words that led to this result.
She took a deep breath and lowered her voice as much as she could: "Since you also want to get out of the marriage, why do you say such things childishly......"
But her words fell into the air, falling to the ground, and shattering into pieces.
Xu Qingmo ignored her, turned around and walked out of the door directly with the jade pendant, leaving only a sentence echoing in the room.
"Prepare the dowry, I will come back and marry my daughter-in-law. β
