Chapter 34: The Peak Turns Back (4)

The next day, not long after Gao Ming went to work, Mr. Huang called.

Mr. Huang said, Gao Ming, take a look at today's edition. If possible, please explain to your lover on my behalf, I also acted according to principles before, and I hope she can understand.

Gao Ming was depressed, and his mood was also very low, and he didn't have the heart to say anything more to Mr. Huang, so he just responded a few times. After putting down the phone, I picked up the day's Yangzhou Daily and looked at it carefully, and found a report on Liang Laosan's case at the bottom of the front page.

According to the relevant regulations of the newspaper, under normal circumstances, such incidents are not in the news, but only in the social news section. This is obviously a gesture made by the newspaper to Gao Ming, and it can probably be regarded as a kind of compensation for Mr. Huang's previous incident.

Although Gao Ming was grateful to Mr. Huang in his heart, he also knew that this did not mean anything to Chen Xiaowei. Because Chen Xiaowei's current grudge against the newspaper and Mr. Huang is definitely not something that can be resolved with a small article and a few lines of text.

Gao Ming looked at the newspaper that day, although he didn't expect Chen Xiaowei to accept this kind of apology at all, but he felt that he should let her know about it anyway, and he wanted to call his father-in-law, but then he felt that it was better to find a way to tell Chen Xiaowei in person.

Chen Xiaowei has not removed Gao Ming's mobile phone from the blacklist, so Gao Ming still can't get through to her. Gao Ming pondered for a whole day, but he didn't come up with any way, so he drove directly to his father-in-law's house after work.

Gao Ming went downstairs to his father-in-law's house to park the car, and when he got out of the car, he met his mother-in-law who picked up Qiaoqiao back, so he called Qiaoqiao from afar. Qiao Qiao looked up and saw Gao Ming, called his father affectionately, carried a heavy schoolbag, and ran over like a little rabbit.

Gao Ming felt sorry for Qiaoqiao, and hurriedly took down the schoolbag for her and carried it himself. pulled Qiaoqiao with his other hand and went upstairs with his mother-in-law. The mother-in-law looked at Qiao Qiao's face, nodded and said hello to Gao Ming, but she didn't show him a face.

After entering the elevator, Gao Ming asked Qiaoqiao, do you miss your father?

Qiaoqiao said yes, yes, dad, you hate it, mom came back yesterday and you didn't come back, I asked mom why dad didn't come back? Mom said you hate it, so she won't let you come back.

Gao Ming smiled and said Your mother was playing with you, Dad came home too late yesterday for something, so he didn't come over, didn't he come to see you today?

Qiao Qiao said seriously, her mother seemed to be very angry yesterday, and her grandmother ignored her talking. Did you upset Mommy, Dad?

Gao Ming was a little embarrassed when he heard Qiaoqiao's words, and he didn't know how to answer, but the elevator reached the floor, automatically stopped and opened the door. The mother-in-law didn't speak beside her, originally intending to see how Gao Ming would deal with Qiaoqiao's good scene, but she failed to do so, and her face was full of regret.

After getting out of the elevator, Qiaoqiao reached out and took out the key from her grandmother's pocket, ran over and opened the door. The three of them entered the house, and Gao Ming saw the old man sitting in the living room watching TV, so he stepped forward to say hello. The old man didn't even raise his eyelids, but just snorted in his nose.

Gao Ming knew that the resentment in the hearts of the two old men had not disappeared, and he wanted to tell the old man what Mr. Huang meant, but he didn't dare to open his mouth when he saw this scene, for fear that the atmosphere would stiffen Chen Xiaowei and couldn't speak when he came back. So he took Qiaoqiao into her small room and wanted to play with her for a while.

The father and daughter closed the door, Qiaoqiao just asked Gao Ming to tell a story, but before Gao Ming could speak, the mother-in-law pushed open the door and came in, saying that Qiao Qiao would do her homework first and play after finishing her homework!

Qiao Qiao pouted and said Grandma, I want to listen to my father tell a story first, can't you?

But the mother-in-law glared at you, and said what she usually told you? I forgot it, do you want to wait for your mother to come back and fix you?

Gao Ming knew that his mother-in-law was deliberately looking for him to be awkward, but he could only swallow his anger, so he persuaded Qiao Qiao according to her words, saying that Qiao Qiao should do his homework first, and then play with his heart when he was done.

Qiao Qiao reluctantly started to do her homework, Gao Ming accompanied her, flipped through Qiao Qiao's homework books for each subject, and learned about her recent study. In general, Qiaoqiao's grades in all subjects are very good, this child is not only smart but also very obedient, and he is especially worry-free for adults in learning.

It didn't take long to hear the door knocking outside, and then I heard Chen Xiaowei asking her mother in the living room, did Qiao Qiao come back, her mother whispered something, Gao Ming didn't hear it too clearly.

Gao Ming was hesitating to go out, but he didn't expect Chen Xiaowei to push the door and come in.

Chen Xiaowei glanced at Gao Ming and didn't speak, walked over and sat next to Qiao Qiao, and asked her if she was hungry, do you want to eat some biscuits first? Qiao Qiao shook her head and said no.

Gao Ming greeted Chen Xiaowei, but Chen Xiaowei ignored him, didn't embarrass him in front of Qiao Qiao, gently touched Qiao Qiao's hair, and then got up and went out. Qiao Qiao looked at Gao Ming, smiled a little weirdly, and said Gao Ming, mom is too lazy to pay attention to you, I guess you are dead!

Gao Ming patted Qiaoqiao's head and said that it was rude! How could you talk to your father like this? Do your homework well, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand what adults do!

After that, Gao Ming also got up and walked out of Qiaoqiao's room, and when he went to the living room, he saw that only the old father-in-law and mother-in-law were watching TV, and they didn't see Chen Xiaowei at all. Gao Ming thought about it, puffed up his chest and went to Chen Xiaowei's room.

Chen Xiaowei's room still retains the same as before she got married, and everything is also placed in the place when she was a girl. Gao Ming has many very warm memories of this room, and it was on that neat little bed that he got Chen Xiaowei's precious first time.

Gao Ming walked into the room and saw Chen Xiaowei sitting in front of the window in a daze. He walked forward slowly, but Chen Xiaowei remained motionless, as if she didn't feel his presence at all.

Gao Ming called Xiaowei softly, Chen Xiaowei turned around and didn't speak, without any expression on her face. Gao Ming thought about it, opened the briefcase and took out the Yangzhou Daily of the day, handed the folded first page to Chen Xiaowei, and said Today's newspaper, Xiaowei, have you read it?

Chen Xiaowei only glanced at the title of the article, reached out and took it, slowly tore it into several pieces, and then gently threw it on the ground. Then he looked up at Gao Ming, still indifferent.

Gao Ming looked at Chen Xiaowei stupidly after all this, and couldn't say a word. Instead, Chen Xiaowei took the initiative to open her mouth, saying that what I hate most are those who only add icing on the cake but never give charcoal in the snow! Gao Ming, you and your newspaper are exactly this kind of style!

Gao Ming was speechless, unable to defend himself at all, and was so embarrassed that he blushed from his face to his neck.

After Chen Xiaowei pondered for a moment, she asked Gao Ming again, "Have you thought about what I told you yesterday?"

Gao Ming squeezed out a smile with difficulty, but it was more ugly than crying, and said Xiaowei, in front of your father and mother, can you save me some face?

Chen Xiaowei said coldly, didn't I save face for you? Then did you save face for me in front of my parents and my parents? Did you save face for me in front of hundreds of people in our hospital?

Gao Ming said, then you should tell me, why didn't I save face for you?

Chen Xiaowei smiled disdainfully, and said that there are some things, I really don't want to say it, because I am afraid that if I say it, you will be humiliated and embarrassed!

Thinking of what Zhu Jianguo did for herself, Chen Xiaowei was so moved that she wanted to cry. But when the words came to his lips, he still held back and didn't say anything. Gao Ming didn't understand what Chen Xiaowei meant, so he was stunned and said, Xiaowei, can you make it clear? Otherwise, I will really feel uncomfortable!

Chen Xiaowei glared at Gao Ming, and her face suddenly became ugly at that moment, and said Gao Ming, since you want to force me, I'll tell you!

angrily told Zhu Jianguo about it.

Gao Ming was really shocked when he heard it. He didn't expect what happened in the hospital in the past few days to be so thrilling, and it was no wonder that Chen Xiaowei's mood swings were so great.

Chen Xiaowei saw that Gao Ming was just in a daze, and didn't speak for a long time, but she was afraid that he wouldn't be angry, so she laughed at herself again, and then again, her husband is useless, so she can't complain about other people's bad words! As for those rumors on the Internet, I don't care about it anyway. It's just that I can't imagine how you can endure it as a big man? How can you stand it? Don't you have a little self-esteem?

It wasn't until this moment that Gao Ming understood that Chen Xiaowei's words and deeds these days were all for a reason, not just a gratuitous provocation, but more of a frenzied vent of her inner dissatisfaction. Although it is excusable to say, Chen Xiaowei has no scruples in speaking and doing things, and does not consider whether others can bear it at all. These excessive words and deeds have greatly hurt Gao Ming's self-esteem.

Gao Ming frowned tightly and said Xiaowei, everyone has their own way of behaving, and everyone has self-esteem, so I hope you still have some leeway to speak.

However, Chen Xiaowei didn't buy it at all, and said sarcastically, if a man can't even protect his wife, what qualifications does he have to talk about self-esteem?

Gao Ming was finally completely enraged by Chen Xiaowei. He stood up abruptly, stared at Chen Xiaowei for a long time, and his thoughts turned back and forth for a moment, but he finally controlled his emotions, couldn't bear to add evil words, just silently opened the door and walked out.

Chen Xiaowei didn't pay attention to Gao Ming's reaction at all, she had already turned her head to stare out the window. Until Gao Ming walked out of the room, he didn't look back at him again.

Chen Xiaowei couldn't say why she treated Gao Ming like this. Chen Xiaowei knew very well in her heart that she didn't have any practical purpose in doing this, and she didn't think carefully about what she wanted to do. But she couldn't help but do it.

If you talk about it seriously, Chen Xiaowei's thoughts in her heart are actually very simple, that is, she has accumulated a lot of resentment against Gao Ming in her heart these days, and she will never forgive Gao Ming until this resentment is completely vented.

Looking back carefully on this difficult time, Chen Xiaowei's psychological journey is actually very clear. She was initially aggrieved, then resentful, and now she's purely venting.

Since the accident in the hospital, Gao Ming's performance from beginning to end has disappointed Chen Xiaowei. He is too dedicated, too irresponsible, and does too little and too little. Especially what Zhu Jianguo did for her later, it formed a strong contrast with Gao Ming. The more Zhu Jianguo did, the better, and Chen Xiaowei's resentment towards Gao Ming deepened.

The reason is very simple, after all, Gao Ming is her husband and her relative, and Zhu Jianguo is just an outsider, just her leader.

Zhu Jianguo's position in Chen Xiaowei's heart is very clear, in addition to being a leader, he is also a bit similar to a brother or elder, and nothing else.

Chen Xiaowei's requirements for Gao Ming are simple and clear, that is, she should be put first at all times. So when she found out that Gao Ming didn't do this, the feelings of frustration, anger and despair naturally could no longer be controlled. So Chen Xiaowei was first angry, then disappointed, and finally completely chilled.

In fact, Chen Xiaowei also knew in her heart that she had said a lot of excessive things, and some of her requests were unreasonable, but she thought that she couldn't be blamed for this, it was all clever. Why didn't she say many things, but Gao Ming herself couldn't think of them? Since the newspaper did not uphold justice, why didn't Gao Ming take the initiative to resign? Chen Xiaowei later made her words clear, why did Gao Ming still fail to do it?

This may only show that Gao Ming doesn't cherish her too much, and he doesn't take her Chen Xiaowei too seriously.
