Chapter 52: Marriage Change
The wheels under his feet just began to turn, and Liu Hong's brain began to spin rapidly: in the morning, Zhao Qingsong said that the unit had an urgent matter and could not attend the wedding. Did he really go to the unit to work overtime? Is he still working overtime? Liu Hong, who usually doesn't care much about her husband, was driven by the hot alcohol, and suddenly had the strange idea of going to Zhao Qingsong's unit to have a look.
Liu Hong asked the driver, Xiao Jia, to change the direction of driving and went straight to the provincial public security department in the east of the city.
At the gate of the Provincial Public Security Department, Liu Hong stepped out of the car alone, raised his head and looked up at the majestic and towering Public Security Department building, imagining how the gentle Zhao Qingsong fit in.
"Comrade, do you have anything to do?" the doorman saw Liu Hong looking like a leader, and hurriedly greeted her.
Liu Hong replied: "I'm looking for Zhao Qingsong, is he in the unit? ”
The doorman enthusiastically told Liu Hong: "Section Chief Zhao is in the unit." Show your ID, register here, and then go to the second floor to find the Public Relations Office. ”
Liu Hong completed the registration in accordance with the regulations and entered the building. She first took a tour of the lobby on the first floor, and took a general look at the billboards and job notices on the wall.
She went up the stairs to the second floor, and looked at the door number in turn, looking for Zhao Qingsong's office.
As soon as she walked to the door of the office of the first section of the propaganda department, she heard the laughter of a woman in the room. Her heart unconsciously "chuckled", and her intuition told her that things were not good.
She crept to the door of the room, trying to hear what the people inside were talking about. It's a pity that the voice inside is too quiet at this time, and only bursts of women's laughter can be heard.
Liu Hong held his breath and decisively pushed open the door, and saw a young and beautiful woman leaning against the windowsill and looking up and laughing, while Zhao Qingsong was sitting on a chair next to the desk and laughing.
Seeing Liu Hong who broke in, Zhao Qingsong and the woman were stunned all of a sudden.
Liu Hong was so angry that his whole body trembled, he rushed to the front of the woman with an arrow step, raised his right hand and slapped her in the face, then turned around and glared at Zhao Qingsong angrily, as if using all his strength to scold: "Zhao Qingsong, you are shameless!"
Before Zhao Qingsong and the woman could react, Liu Hong had already rushed out of the office and rushed down the stairs.
The hallway echoed the sound of her heels tapping against the floor.
Zhao Qingsong hurriedly ran to the staircase and shouted loudly at Liu Hong's distant back: "Liu Hong, you madman!"
In the office, the woman let out a heart-rending cry.
Zhao Qingsong hurriedly returned to the office and apologized to the woman.
Liu Hong has always thought that Zhao Qingsong is keen on pots and spoons and has no ambitions, and if he compares with the ambitious Guo Mingkai and others, he is even less than enough to worry about, because to this day he is still a small section chief of the propaganda department. What he didn't expect was that he made rapid progress in messing with flowers and grass, and he dared to be so presumptuous with a woman in the office in broad daylight, what is the difference between this and doing the ugly thing of betraying himself!
Liu Hong must not tolerate the ambiguity between her husband, who has always been obedient to her, and other women, although she has long had a feeling of love similar to Guo Mingkai in her heart.
In the evening, Liu Hong and Zhao Qingsong broke out in a husband and wife war. One is righteous and strict, the other is righteous and awe-inspiring, one scolds, and the other ridicules. Although they had clashes before, one was strong, but the other was reluctant to give in, and there was almost no violent spark. Today, both of them couldn't control themselves in the fire, and they didn't hesitate to say desperate and cruel things that hurt each other's feelings.
After a period of calmness, Zhao Qingsong and Liu Hong not only did not reconcile as before, but their relationship became even colder.
What Zhao Qingsong needs is family, love, affection, love, and meekness, but Liu Hong can't satisfy him, causing Zhao Qingsong to become more and more disappointed in this family day by day, and finally only disappointment and despair remain.
After careful consideration, Zhao Qingsong categorically asked Liu Hong for a divorce: "Xiaohong, I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I am also working hard to save our marriage, hoping that we can love each other and grow old." However, after so many years of hard work, there are more and more contradictions between us, and the distance between us is getting wider and wider. I am not the kind of man you aspire to in your career, and I am not worthy of you, a famous news anchor, director of television stations, director of culture and director of radio and television. I figured it out, I don't want to embarrass and embarrass you anymore. Let's get together and disperse, let's agree to divorce, so that both of us can be relieved. ”
Liu Hong kept wiping his tears, as if it was the first time he cried in front of Zhao Qingsong in his memory. She sobbed, "I don't want this family to be like this." Whose fault is it, and for what?"
Zhao Qingsong said sadly: "No one is wrong. You're certainly not wrong. It was these two of us who were not suited to live together and went to the wrong room. ”
Liu Hong continued to sob: "If you can do a little bit and have a bigger career, will I rush to the front so desperately? I am also a woman, and I also need a husband and children, and I also need the warmth of my family." ”
Zhao Qingsong said: "You have now reached the key point. I'm not the kind of person you need, and I'm not going to bring you glory and riches. The best outcome is a peaceful breakup, and you can ask for another smart and pursue your own happiness. ”
Liu Hong thought about it for a while, and said resolutely and gently: "Since this is the case, I don't want to force anything. However, I have three requirements. ”
Zhao Qingsong asked nervously, "What requirements?"
"First, we try to narrow down the range of people who know about this as much as possible to reduce the social impact," Liu said. Second, we continued to live together without separation. Third, Long Long can't be let know about this at the moment. His brain could no longer be stimulated in any way. ”
After listening to Liu Hong's request, Zhao Qingsong knew that she cared most about social influence and children, and felt that it was reasonable, so she agreed to it all.
In the end, Zhao Qingsong said: "I want to find a way to find a relationship, you don't have to go to the scene when you go through the formalities." ”
Liu Hong nodded with relief.
However, no matter what level of relationship Zhao Qingsong found, the staff of the Civil Affairs Bureau refused to handle it, because they had an absolutely inviolable rule: the divorce procedure must be handled by the presence of both parties at the same time.
Liu Hong had no choice but to find time to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau with Zhao Qingsong to quietly go through the divorce procedures.
Liu Hong looked at the divorce certificate in his hand, and still shed tears sadly. No matter how strong she is in work and life, she is a woman after all, and she still has an emotion buried deep in her heart. She was saying goodbye to a marriage that didn't bring her happiness. A woman's happiness is nothing more than the success of her career, her healthy body, her excellent husband, her filial children, and her happy family. She had always wished she had these five things, but God did not fulfill her wishes, and she always spent every day in the absence of them. This leaves her with little satisfaction and security.
Liu Hong slowly raised his head, looked at Zhao Qingsong, who was also exhausted, and suddenly remembered the scene of them watching movies and visiting the park together on the first day he arrived in Anxi, so he proposed to Zhao Qingsong: "Let's go watch a movie, shall we?"
Zhao Qingsong looked at Liu Hong inexplicably: "You-don't go to work?"
Liu Hong smiled and said, "In order to commemorate our failed marriage, I will make an exception to give myself a half-day off." ”
Liu Hong and Zhao Qingsong came to Dongfanghong Cinema and saw that "The Queen" starring Helen Mirren was being screened. If it were usual, Liu Hong would definitely choose to watch this movie without hesitation, however, today is obviously out of place.
They went to the nearby Feitian Cinema and saw that "Wrong Love" starring Yue Wenle was being screened.
Liu Hong secretly glanced at Zhao Qingsong and said faintly: "The name of this movie feels like it satirizes us. Forget it, let's go to the park. ”
When they came to East Lake Park, they did not go to the lake to go boating, but climbed directly to the hill in the middle of the park. They stood side by side on the top of the hill and admired the beautiful cityscape of Anzai.
Although they stood together, they had their own hearts.
Zhao Qingsong's heart is relatively simple, find a good wife and mother-like woman to marry as soon as possible, and live a happy life in a small family leisurely.
Liu Hong's heart is more complicated, first of all, his career is in the ascendant, and he must not give up halfway, and secondly, his son Longlong's future career and family must not go wrong again. This will determine the happiness of his life, and again his own love life, where is the person who suits him?
In a trance, Liu Hong suddenly saw a familiar figure at the foot of the mountain.
Guo Mingkai!
He is an excellent talent, powerful, talented, handsome, and emotionally intelligent. My future belongs to him. I'm going to hold on to what belongs to me.
Liu Hong hurriedly said to Zhao Qingsong: "I just remembered that there was an urgent matter, and I had to leave first." You take your time. Let's talk when we get home in the evening. ”
Liu Hong hurriedly ran down the hill as he spoke.
There were only a few white-haired old men walking down the hillside, and there was no handsome and dashing Guo Mingkai at all.
Liu Hong's heart suddenly became empty, he stood there stunned for a long time, and then walked out of the gate of the park in a daze.
She saw pots of moonred flowers in the flower pond on the side of the road, and garden workers were cultivating flowers and plants in the flower pond.
Liu Hong slowly walked to the side of the flower pond, bent down and looked at Yueyuehong for a long time, and then picked up a pot of the most colorful and lush Yueyuehong, and walked forward by himself while carefully admiring the flowers.
A garden worker shouted at Liu Hong's back: "Hey, this is a public flower!"
Liu Hong suddenly came to his senses when he heard the shouts of the workers, quickly turned around and returned to the workers, took out 50 yuan from his bag and stuffed it into the hands of the garden workers, and said apologetically: "Master, I'm really sorry." I'll pay for a pot, okay?"
The garden worker smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm looking at you as if you have something on your mind...... Hey, wait a minute, a pot of flowers only costs 5 yuan!"
