134 He sent a text message: Have you ever seen an afternoon in New York [6000+]
? She and Yan Ting have recently divorced......
Su Qiao's action of drinking water paused, and when she saw Yuan's mother, she vaguely guessed that something was wrong, but she didn't expect that it would be such a serious divorce.
As for why she came to her, Su Qiao's fingers holding the wall of the cup tightened slightly.
Yuan's mother said, "What time do you get off work?" I'm waiting for you here, Yuan Qing has lived in Yuan's house since he was discharged from the hospital, what kind of food do you like to eat, I'll call my aunt to make it"
"Don't bother." Su Qiao planned to take the time to visit Yuan Qing, not tonight.
Yuan's mother took her somewhat cool hand, and looked kind: "In the past, family planning was tight, and I had a child with Lao Yuan on Yuan Qing, Lao Yuan likes girls very much, and the most regrettable thing for our old couple is that they didn't give Yuan Qing a sister, you don't have to be polite to me, your name is Aunt Yuan Qing, and you are half of the Yuan family's child." β
Looking at Yuan Mu's gentle and pleading gaze, if she refused, Su Qian suddenly couldn't speak.
At 5:10 p.m., there are still nearly an hour left before the end of work.
Su Qiao returned to the design department.
After sitting down, she couldn't calm down and work, and couldn't help but take out her mobile phone to spit out her bitterness to Mu An'an.
Mu An'an replied in secondsββ
[Did your aunt and her mother really find you, or to Hengfeng?] Frightened]
Su Qiao sighed and passed.
Typing again.
[Now I'm waiting in the reception room, let me go directly to Yuan's house with her after work.] ]
Mu An'an brushed more than a dozen frightened expressions in a row.
[You're finished, do they know about you and your uncle, otherwise how can they catch one!] ]
Su Qiao quickly went back to the past-
[Don't talk nonsense about nAd1(]
After pondering for a moment, she solemnly said again: "There was nothing wrong between me and him three years ago, and it won't be much better in three years." β
Mu Anan has been friends with Su Qiao for many years, and he knows very well the decisive side of Su Qiao's character.
Maybe Su Qian hasn't forgotten Su Yanting now, but it is absolutely impossible for her and Su Yanting to be single, even if Su Yanting divorces Yuan Qing and returns to being single, she suddenly finds that what she really wants is Su Qiao, Su Qiao is afraid that she will not accept him in turn for the rest of her life, even if she is still in love at that time.
Mu Anan remembered what Su Qiao said to her last time: "For a thing, for a person, I have worked 100% seriously and retained, it/he is not mine, I will give up, I may be sad for a long time, but I do not regret choosing to give up." Because I know that if I lose it/him next time, my feelings for it/him will no longer be pure, mixed with resentment and unwillingness, and these emotions will accumulate day by day, and there will always be a day when they explode. I don't want to hurt it/him and can only expect nothing from the moment I lose it for the first time. β
The final result of this kind of stubbornness is that in many cases, one thousand enemies are injured and eight hundred are self-inflicted.
Mu An'an snapped typing.
[Why did you agree to go to Yuan's house?] Knock on the head]
There was a quick reply.
[You will be my Virgin.] ]
[Then you really don't know how many times the Virgin Mary has been with your little aunt.] ]
Su Qian saw this message from Mu An'an, recalled the few times she got along with Yuan Qing after returning to China, and when mentioning her work problems, Yuan Qing implied that the design institute was mentioned, and Yuan Qing repeatedly joked in front of Su Yanting that she was secretly dating someone, and also took the initiative to help her introduce her boyfriend, including what she only told her about pregnancy.
Just because she doesn't say it, doesn't think about it, doesn't mean she really doesn't understand nAd2 (
β¦β¦
Su Qiao called and told Liang Muzhen not to go back to dinner, get off work at 6 o'clock, and went to Yuan's house with Yuan's mother.
The car stopped outside the small western-style building of the Yuan family, and the sky was already dark.
The interior decoration of Yuan's house is full of the fragrance of books, a very strong intellectual atmosphere, Su Qiao entered the house behind Yuan's mother, Yuan's father was leaning on the sofa reading the newspaper, wearing a white shirt and a plain chickenheart collar vest, his brows were slightly wrinkled, he looked quite majestic and old-fashioned, he noticed that someone came in, but he glanced at it, and heard Yuan's mother introduce Su Qiao, he nodded, which was in response to Su Qiao's greetings.
Su Qian didn't know much about the situation of the Yuan family, and the only thing he knew was from Liang Muzhen's mouth.
Yuan's father is a professor at Peking University, he stayed in the United States in the early years, worked as a lawyer for nearly ten years, and after returning to China, he taught at Haicheng University, and then went to the capital.
"Buckwheat?"
Su Qiao heard someone calling him, and turned his head to see Yuan Qing on the stairs.
Yuan Qing was a little thinner than some time ago, no longer with a slightly plump figure, her complexion was haggard, she was wearing a thick shawl, she saw Su Qiao, she was not much surprised, and invited Su Qiao to come to the house, she obviously knew about it, or rather, this was her idea.
For dinner, Su Qiao didn't eat much, and she was pretending to be something.
β¦β¦
After the meal, Yuan Qing spoke: "Buckwheat, you can talk alone with me for a while." β
Since she came, Su Qiao had already made mental preparations, she nodded, and followed Yuan Qing upstairs to the room.
As soon as the two sat down, Yuan's mother asked her aunt to bring fruit.
Su Qiao saw the wedding photo hanging at the head of the bed, Yuan Qing was wearing a white wedding dress, beautiful and gentle, Su Yanting was in a black suit and white shirt, heroic, this photo Su Qiao saw three years ago, Su Zeyang sent it to her when he chatted with her, the photo was printed on the wedding card, and there were four words next to it - a match made in heaven nAd3 (
That day, the temperature was minus 6 degrees at night, and she stood under the eyes of London, feeling
Tang felt tears freeze on his face.
"Try it, this apple doesn't have hormones, it's very sweet."
Yuan Qing inserted a piece of cut apple with a toothpick and handed it over, his pale face and his smile were very light.
Su Qiao took it and held it in his hand, not interested in tasting sweetness or not.
Long silence passed.
Yuan Qing said: "Last Wednesday, November 11, Singles' Day, your uncle mentioned the divorce to me. β
The opening remarks that were too direct made Su Qiao raise her eyes to look at her.
"Looks like you don't know." Yuan Qing muttered in his mouth, then hooked the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with relief: "Think about it, how could he tell you such a thing." β
Seeing that Su Qiao was silent, she took the initiative to say again: "Don't you ask why we divorced suddenly?" β
Su Qian didn't ask, not because she wasn't curious, but because she felt that she didn't have a position.
No younger generation will ask about the marriage of the elders.
"Because the child I lost is not your uncle's."
Su Qiao was not as calm as Yuan Qing showed, and it was difficult to digest the news for a while, and her mind was full of her and Su Yanting's deep affection.
"Blame myself for being drunk and mishaving, being taken advantage of, in fact, I took birth control pills, I didn't expect to be able to get pregnant, and there are more unlucky things, I went to the hospital and wanted to have a miscarriage, but the doctor said that my physique is even difficult to get pregnant, and now I am finally pregnant, if I insist on doing an abortion, I am unlucky, and I may not be able to be a mother again in the future."
Yuan Qing looked at Su Qiao, and the expression on her face was very calm: "When you asked me to accompany me to the hospital, I wanted to get rid of this child, but when I thought of what the doctor said, I couldn't do it, and then I thought about it, treat it as my and Yanting's child, and after giving birth, find a reason to send it to my parents to raise." I haven't figured out how to tell Yan Ting, there was an accident on the construction site first, and the child is gone. β
When Su Qiao heard Yuan Qing use the word "get rid of", she understood that Yuan Qing originally wanted to get rid of the child with her own hand.
"Your uncle has had a ligation, but I, the pillow person, didn't find out, when I revealed my grief for the loss of this child in front of him, it is estimated that it is an unprecedented humiliation for him." Yuan Qing smiled bitterly, with self-deprecation: "I still feel guilty and sorry for him when I learned that it was extremely difficult for me to get pregnant, it turned out that he never planned to have me and his child." "
"......" Su Qiao's fingers clenched the toothpick.
She suddenly remembered Shen Ning, and Shen Ning said that she was also pregnant with Su Yanting's child.
Yuan Qing took a sip of the coffee on the table, and it was already cold in the afternoon: "Actually, I know that this marriage will be divorced sooner or later." "
Su Qian didn't understand and looked at her.
Yuan Qing saw Su Qiao's appearance, and her mood was inexplicably better, at least when she was hurt in this marriage, she was not as fortunate as other women, "When you graduated this year, did you receive an anonymous gift?" An oil painting of chrysanthemum, but you thought it was sent by mistake, and it was donated to the Academy of Fine Arts after it was unclaimed. "
Su Qiao's heart beat faster, and she vaguely understood something.
"You guessed whether it was or not, he sent it, at that time he said he was going to England on a business trip, the oil painting was auctioned by him for hundreds of thousands of dollars at an auction, I began to think he gave it to my father, after the oil painting was bought, he pressed the bottom of the box, and I didn't see him take it out for most of the year, until he went to London, I saw him hiding the oil painting in a suitcase, I asked him what he was going to do, and he said it was a graduation gift for you."
A few months ago, Su Qiao still remembers.
When she received the shipment from DHL, she had just returned to her home from school to take her graduation photos.
Unwrapping the heavy package, she was amazed when she saw the oil painting, and went to see the express list, which was printed out by the computer, and the sender was a certain DHL sender
The next day, she ran to the sender with the oil painting to inquire, but the staff could not describe the sender's appearance.
In their opinion, Asians all look the same, and they only told Su Qiao that it was sent by a man.
Yuan Qing put the coffee cup back on the cup plate: "You don't know how careful he was when he put it in the box, for fear of bumping into it, and wrapped the four corners of the painting with cotton cloth, I have been married to him for almost three years, and I have never seen him treat a thing so carefully, at that time, I didn't know what was wrong with me, and I had a bad premonition, so I proposed to go to the UK with him." "
"I don't know, I don't know you've been to London." Su Qiao said softly, her heart was overgrown.
Yuan Qing nodded: "He was originally secretly going to see you, how could he let you know that he still rents the apartment opposite your residence all the year round, and in the past three years, as long as he has something to do to go on a business trip to Europe, no matter how far or near, he will go to London, these are what I learned later, I even suspect that the business trip is just an excuse he made for himself." β
"The most regrettable thing I have done in my life should be the trip to London with him, if I hadn't gone with him, I wouldn't have discovered the secret of his heart, and I might still be living happily ever after." Yuan Qing glanced at the stunned Su Qiao, and curled the corners of his lips: "People may be like this, it's not easy to be content, and they always want more, you know, although he is good to me, he has never been as attentive to you as he is to you." β
"I'm a woman, I have a keen sixth sense, you are his niece, but there is no uncle and nephew who get along like you, unspeakably weird, before getting married, I just thought too much about myself, you went to school in London, he is your only relative, you rely on him is understandable, and then I thought, anyway, we returned to China, since he chose to marry me, it means that the previous people and things are not worthy of his nostalgia. Before getting married, his ex-girlfriend chased him back to China to make trouble, and when I saw Shen Ning for the first time, I only felt familiar, but her pungent personality suddenly made me unable to remember
Where is familiar, or rather, I don't want to think about it. β
Speaking, Yuan Qing's gaze was fixed on Su Qiao: "After three years like this, when you return to China, the uneasiness in my heart is getting heavier and heavier, I have never dared to face up to my own discovery, but the reality forced me to raise my head to see, especially after learning that you are not his eldest brother's biological child, I always feel that I will lose him one day, I am afraid that I will wake up early in the morning, and the person sleeping next to me suddenly says that I am looking for true love, and as a result, I am really afraid of something." β
Su Qiao didn't know what else she could say.
Clenching her hands on a toothpick, the apple suddenly sank so hard that she couldn't hold it steadily.
Yuan Qing's words stirred up layers of horror in her heart, and she always thought that Su Yanting had nothing but a little liking for herself.
This liking is insignificant, not enough for him to carry the pressure of public opinion with her, so he will marry someone else.
"I asked my mother to get you today." Yuan Qing let out a long breath: "Say everything that is in your heart, it's much better now, otherwise I'm worried about whether I will get depression after a miscarriage, I thought I would have a grudge when I faced you, but I really talked about it, that's it." β
Before Su Qiao left, Yuan Qing called out to her: "I won't agree to the divorce, I will lose the child this time, I will not be able to have children in the future, I have lost too much in this marriage, it is impossible to quit with a smile in the end, in the final analysis, it was you who dragged me into this whirlpool and made me a victim between you." β
β¦β¦
Coming out of Yuan's house, Su Qiao sat in the car for a long time.
The dark night sky shrouded the white Ling Zhi under the street lights, and she leaned back in her chair, her slender body nestled in her seat.
When I returned to Tianhe Bay, it was already late at night.
Su Qiao didn't even take a shower, and went back to the room directly, feeling tired, lying on the bed but couldn't sleep.
Mu Anan sent a WeChat message to inquire about the situation and asked Su Qiao if she had arrived home safely.
Su Qiao didn't hide it from her, and told her about the matter in the Yuan family briefly.
Mu Anan sent a voice: "I just said that your little aunt is not so simple, now believe it, everyone plans to get rid of the child and let you carry the black pot, when the time comes, not only can you hide it from your uncle, but also make you feel guilty about her, you let her have no children, how embarrassed to rob her husband with her again." β
Su Qiao typed and repliedββ
[With or without children, I didn't think about robbing her.] ]
"But people won't think so, according to your aunt's statement, your uncle's heart is not in her, your true love is okay abroad, and now that she is back, she dangles in front of her from time to time, like a thorn stuck in her throat, you still have a sensitive identity, she can't pull you out if she wants to, the only thing she can do is to marry you out this morning. You like to keep things in your heart, and you won't catch people and ask anything, she knows this very well, so she will do something to keep you away from them and the couple. β
Mu Anan sent two voices one after another: "What are your plans now?" I always feel that your uncle proposed divorce at this time, not only because of the children, but also because your aunt probably knew this, so she didn't sign it. β
Su Qiao stared at the sentence 'What are you planning to do now', and unconsciously asked herself, should you really not come back?
If she had stayed in the UK honestly, many things might not have happened.
[Buckwheat, why did you want to return to Japan at that time?] ]
Mu An'an asked her.
Su Qian leaned on the head of the bed, why did she come back, thinking about this question, she was a little dazed.
In London, no matter day or night, she is always alone, like driftwood wandering in the sea, gradually, she is confused about life, after countless work, standing on the London Bridge, looking at the pedestrians in a hurry, reading on their faces the eagerness to rush home, she leaned on the guardrail, for the first time so clearly felt that she was lonely, so she refused the high-paying job introduced by her mentor and bought a ticket back to this familiar and unfamiliar city.
At the door of the room, there was the sound of a cat's paw scratching the door.
Su Qiao and Mu Anan ended chatting, got up from the bed, and went over to open the door with her mobile phone.
When Lantern Xiao saw her, she immediately ran back.
Su Qiao smelled a peculiar smell and frowned, she went out, turned on the light in the living room, and found three lumps of cat feces next to the coffee table.
As if knowing that he was in trouble, the cat had disappeared.
After cleaning up the living room, Su Qiao felt a smell on her hands, remembered that she hadn't taken a bath yet, and simply went into the bathroom.
In about 30 minutes, Su Qiao came out of the bath.
Liang Muzhen was standing in front of the coffee table in the living room, holding her mobile phone in her hand.
Seeing her come out, Liang Muzhen's brows relaxed slightly: "Your phone keeps ringing, I got up to look, and I hung up before I answered it, it's an unfamiliar number." β
Su Qiao took the phone, and when she saw the missed call, her heartbeat was slightly faster by half a beat.
"Probably, it's a call like a harass."
Liang Muzhen nodded and told her to rest early and go back to the master bedroom first.
β¦β¦
Closing the door of the room, there were 3 missed calls on the phone, calling from the same number.
Su Qiao looked at the number, and suddenly was glad that she didn't save it in the address book, otherwise she wouldn't be able to explain it to Liang Muzhen.
On the big night, the father of my younger brother's classmate called her, and no matter how she explained it, it was not normal.
I just took out the charger from my bag when a text message came in from my phone.
Just two words.
[Sleeping?] ]
Su Qiao saw the number in the recipient's column,
Press the home button directly, and the SMS conversation window disappears.
Leaving her phone on the desk to charge, she lay down under the covers.
Because of her period, Su Qiao slept unsteadily, and at 2 o'clock in the morning, she was awakened by the urge to urinate, and her stomach hurt faintly.
I was too lazy to turn on the light, so I unplugged my phone from the power supply, and opened the door to go to the bathroom with the screen shining brightly.
When she returned to her room a short time later, she didn't put her phone on the table to charge it.
found that the mobile phone was running a lot of programs, and just wanted to close it, a call came in from the mobile phone, and Su Qiao was startled by the sudden ringtone.
She forgot to mute before going to bed last night.
Without even looking at the number, she hung up the phone as soon as possible.
In less than 1 minute, there was an extra text message on the phone.
Su Qiao clicked open, and there was only one question mark.
She ignored it for about 10 minutes, then took out her mobile phone from under her pillow and typed it over: "Mr. Lu, is there something?" β
The other party replied - [What time is it and I haven't slept yet]
If it weren't for his call, she wouldn't have been scared to wake up.
Su Qiao tapped out a line of words with her delicate fingers, thought about it, deleted it again, and re-typed: "Just got up to go to the toilet, ready to sleep, Mr. Lu also rested early." β
It took a long time for the other side to replyβ
[New York is now going to meet with GL executives at 1:30 p.m. and can't take a nap]
Su Qiao's sentence to rest early was just out of politeness, and she completely forgot about his affairs abroad, and she didn't expect him to reply so seriously.
For a moment, she didn't know what to do.
Suddenly, the other party sent another text message.
[Have you ever seen an afternoon in New York]
The topic changed, Su Qiao didn't understand a little, but she still replied 'no'.
The phone was quiet for a while.
At 2:26 a.m., the phone screen came back on.
Su Qiao received an MMS message, a photo overlooking from the upper floor, and the sofa and bed in the hotel suite were also reflected on the glass, she looked at this photo, she couldn't tell how she felt, her ears were a little hot, and she was inexplicable, why did he send me a photo for no reason?
