Chapter 165: Make up your mind

After Guo Haodong and the others left Gui Ling and Xiao Fang one after another, they sat there in a daze, reminiscing about the content of their conversation with Gui Ling. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

He couldn't help but recall what Gui Ling had told him before, and secretly thought, Gui Ling, this girl is really not simple, and she can have such an understanding of love, which really impresses her. Since she loves Li Shunxi so much, won't she really feel the loss and hurt after rubbing shoulders with him? Alas, perhaps love is not just sweet, it may also be a poignant beauty.

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but feel excited, why didn't he borrow Gui Ling's 'concept of love' to persuade the stubborn Chen Lanlan?

He couldn't help but light up, Gui Ling's words gave him a lot of inspiration. I should have an open and honest talk with Lan Lan.

Di Di Di...

Just as he was still in his imagination, the phone on the corner of the table rang.

As soon as he stretched out his arm, he picked up his mobile phone from the corner of the table, and checked the caller ID in front of him, which turned out to be called by his mother.

He immediately connected: "Mom, are you back?" ”

Li Suqin's voice came from the mobile phone: "Not yet." We'll withdraw together tomorrow. ”

Through Guo Haodong's interaction with Yang Nannan in the past two days, he already knew that his unit was about to complete the task of relocating the victims, and he was about to return to Jidong. He didn't feel strange, but curious: "Then is it okay for you to call me?" ”

Li Suqin hesitated for a moment, and finally asked: "Nan Nan will also come back tomorrow, what are you going to do?" ”

Guo Haodong understood what his mother meant, but he still asked knowingly when he was conflicted: "What to do?" ”

Li Suqin sighed: "I know how you two lived as husband and wife before. Do you want to do this to her when she returns? Please don't be so cruel, okay? ”

A trace of helplessness flashed between Guo Haodong's eyebrows: "Mom, please don't force me, I still need time to deal with the relationship between me and Lan Lan." Only when she lets go, can I be good to Nan Nan with peace of mind. ”

Li Suqin said angrily: "Can you achieve the best of both worlds?" Don't be so naΓ―ve. It may not be a good thing to let Lanlan's child experience an emotional setback, it may make her know how to cherish the person she should cherish. ”

Guo Haodong understood that his mother was referring to Li Shunxi, the person he should cherish, but he seemed very helpless: "But she may not have walked out of the psychological haze in a short time, and she is alone abroad." If she is emotionally hurt, she doesn't even have a comforter by her side. ”

"Alas, don't think you're alone in worrying about Lan Lan. After all, she is already an adult, and she should understand the consequences she has to bear since she wants to empathize with her. You're going to have a showdown with her. As the saying goes, long pain is better than short pain. Only by making a painful determination can you free many people, including the two of you. ”

Guo Haodong listened to his mother's words and felt a little strange, why is she in a hurry to let herself and Lan Lan break off now? What does it mean to say 'many people are free'?

He couldn't help but question: "Mom, what's wrong with you today?" Why are you in such a hurry for me to propose to Lan Lan to break up? ”

Li Suqin hesitated for a moment before she covered it up: "Because I think Nan Nan is too pitiful." You've lived with her for so long, can't you feel her love for you? We slept together every day, and I listened to her call your name in her sleep every night, and saw tears in the corners of her eyes. If you have feelings for her, you can't let her live alone in an empty house anymore. I also know that it is impossible to accept her first when you have not given up on another relationship. Therefore, I want you to explain things clearly to Lan Lan before Nan Nan goes back. ”

Li Suqin's words made Guo Haodong have mixed feelings, and he couldn't help but recall Yang Nannan's previous performance, as well as her books and text messages during this time. Yes, if you keep fighting with her again, it will not only be unfair to her, but also an act of self-harm. In fact, he and Nan Nan live under the same roof, and their inner selfish desires have long had the idea of 'occupying' each other. Alas, I have lived with such a beautiful woman in the name of husband and wife for so long, and I haven't touched her once, I'm afraid it's a joke of all men in the world, right?

He felt his blood boiling suddenly, and couldn't help but say to his mother, "Don't worry." I will make it clear to Lan Lan before Nan Nan comes back. ”

Li Suqin was pleasantly surprised: "Haodong, is what you said true?" Don't lie to me! ”

Guo Haodong was very decisive: "Don't worry, I will do what I say." I'm going to talk to Lan Lan tonight. ”

Li Suqin questioned: "Then why did you wait until the evening?" Haven't you thought about it yet? ”

Guo Haodong smiled bitterly: "Do you think I'm still wavering now? I'm telling you - I'm not the kind of indecisive man. I can't call right now, that's because it's midnight at Lan Lan's place. She didn't live alone in her dormitory. Even if she calls in the middle of the night and doesn't affect the other roommates, can you bear to let me wake her up from her sleep and announce to her the cruelest thing for her? ”

"This..."

Li Suqin's heart was sour, and tears suddenly burst out of her eyes. However, because she was on the other end of the phone, she couldn't let her son see her tears. In fact, she was reluctant to let her biological daughter get hurt, but now it is really better to have a long pain than a short pain. In order for her daughter not to go into a nightmare, she must be asked to leave Haodong.

As soon as Guo Haodong heard that his mother was speechless, he said again: "I won't hesitate, but I also need a little time to try to let Lan Lan let go of me in the most tactful way." Just wait for my news. ”

Li Suqin burst into tears and nodded: "Well, I'm waiting for your news..."

"Mom, what's wrong with you..."

Guo Haodong felt that his mother's voice was a little choked, and his eyes couldn't help but widen, and when he wanted to ask what was going on, he heard his mother hang up the phone.

Guo Haodong put down his mobile phone, and after a long time of reminiscing, he couldn't figure out any clue, and he only thought that his mother was moved because he wanted to really accept Nan Nan.

However, he really has to do his homework next, if he deals with this important call with Chen Lanlan.

After another busy work at the company, he finally got up to work. When he walked out of the company, he found the back of Li Shunxi and Gui Ling leaving together, and couldn't help but shake his head.

He didn't go straight home because it was still early. He parked his car in front of a restaurant not far from his neighborhood. He planned to drink some wine outside and call Chen Lanlan when he went home. As the saying goes, wine strengthens bears' gall. For him, at least a certain amount of courage can be added.

After he poured some alcohol in the restaurant, he finally returned to his home, and looking at the deserted home, he couldn't help but think - tomorrow this time, this home will be full of warmth, maybe he can have the goddess that he has been neglected for the first time.

Thinking of this, he became even more determined to show his attitude to Chen Lanlan on this night.

He looked forward to this moment with apprehension and eagerness.

The time was midnight, and as soon as he calculated the time, Chen Lanlan was about to usher in the sunrise. Moreover, it is time for the other party to wake up, because the two of them often talk on the phone at this moment.

He immediately dialed Chen Lanlan's mobile phone, and before connecting, his other hand touched his chest, obviously trying to calm his nervousness.

Chen Lanlan didn't answer his call until a minute later: "Hey, haven't you slept yet?" ”

As soon as Guo Haodong heard the other party's soft words, his heart couldn't help sinking, and he quickly asked uneasily, "Did I wake you up?" ”

"It's fine. I'm going to be up anyway. Chen Lanlan had a very tolerant voice.

Guo Haodong said "oh", "We haven't talked to each other for two or three days, I want to have a good talk with you today." ”

Chen Lanlan immediately showed an alert tone: "What are you going to talk to me about?" ”

Guo Haodong heard the other party's tone, and his heart couldn't help but tremble, he was really afraid that once he said the ruthless words, the other party would burst into tears instantly.

He hesitated for a moment and decided to divert the other party's vigilance first, so he said, "Let's talk about Li Shunxi first." ”

"Oh, why are you interested in him?" Chen Lanlan's curious tone.

Guo Haodong said in a serious tone: "I didn't know much about him before, but through being a colleague with him for a while, I got to know him newly." I'd love to tell you about my experience..."

"Hahaha..." Chen Lanlan interrupted Guo Haodong's words with a burst of laughter, "He has been my classmate and prospective boyfriend for several years. I don't understand what kind of person he is. ”

Guo Haodong was stunned: "After all, you haven't seen him for more than two years, people are in positive changes, and he may not be the Li Shunxi in your impression now." ”

Chen Lanlan disagreed: "What you said is really ridiculous, human nature is difficult to change. Where can he change in his bones? ”

Guo Haodong was surprised: "He has paid so much for your Chen family, is it so unbearable in your eyes?" ”

Chen Lanlan hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's not." He's actually pretty good. It's a pity that I don't have feelings for him, and as soon as I meet you, I feel like he's worthless. ”

Guo Haodong listened to Chen Lanlan's words, his expression was not smug at all, but showed a sense of guilt, and hurriedly said: "He is actually much better than me, maybe he usually does more, but he says less, so you can't feel his love..."

"Hahaha, you're wrong, he called me last night to sensationalize. Unfortunately, I don't feel anything about him. Chen Lanlan interrupted him again.

Guo Haodong's eyes lit up: "He called you?" So what do you mean? ”

Chen Lanlan snorted in her nostrils: "He, he actually said some sensual things to me." It's simply not him. By the way, maybe he really changed, but it made me more and more disgusted. He might as well be the man who seemed very emotionally wooden before. ”

Guo Haodong couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart-did he come up with a bad idea for Li Shunxi?

However, he was full of reproach for Chen Lanlan: "Lanlan, what a good man Li Shunxi is." Why don't you look down on him like this? Is it fair to him? ”

"Haodong, why are you scolding me like this?" Chen Lanlan questioned angrily, "I don't look down on him, isn't that because of you?" Isn't it fair that you have made him change his social status for me, even if he loses me, he has been rewarded enough? ”

The more Chen Lanlan said this, the more embarrassed Guo Haodong became, and he had to complain loudly: "Lanlan, how can you do this? Li Shunxi's dedication is enough to move the world, but how can you not appreciate it? Even if you don't have feelings for him, can't everything he does change your feelings for him? He shows a deep love for you by taking care of and loving your parents. Doesn't this expression of love move you? I know you have feelings for me, but true love is about being like-minded in life. By taking care of your parents on your behalf, Li Shunxi has already achieved resonance in life, which is a sincere love that can be met but not sought for you. I'm less than a tenth of him. You're such a fan of the authorities! ”

Unexpectedly, Guo Haodong told with emotion, but Chen Lanlan was furious: "Guo Haodong, don't deceive me anymore." You asked me to cherish Li Shunxi, in fact, you want to push me back to him, and you actually made up a lot of grandiose reasons. Isn't that interesting? ”

Guo Haodong has already talked about this, so he can only make up his mind, and immediately said solemnly: "I think Li Shunxi is more suitable for you." Although I do not deny the love for you. But true love is to make the other party happy, and it is not deliberately possessed. Therefore, even if we have love between us, such love can only be meaningful if it is a blessing to each other and appreciate each other's happiness from afar. In fact, in this world, there are countless couples who are difficult to marry. Because of their real lives, they can only work hard with each other. In this sense, love is not about experiencing sweetness, and poignant love is also a part of life. ”

"Guo Haodong, you told me so many big truths, you just understand, did you have a showdown with me?" Chen Lanlan asked in an almost choked voice.

Although Guo Haodong couldn't bear it in his heart, he couldn't reserve any way back for himself at this time. However, his wording had to be as subtle as possible, so he patiently said: "Lan Lan, there has been love between us. We've made a vow. However, true love is not an impulsive love for me, but needs to be tested in real life. Let's not talk about the other person's change of heart, but we didn't know each other very well at the beginning. In such a situation, it is difficult for each other to form a harmonious family. Therefore, when choosing a spouse, you must choose someone who is more suitable for you in life. Li Shunxi loves you so much, and he will definitely be obedient to you. Now that his social status has improved, he won't wronged you at all..."

"Please don't mention him again!" Chen Lanlan interrupted angrily, "I actually knew that you wanted to get rid of me, but it was definitely not the reason you just said. You... You are empathetic and don't fall in love, and you are in love with Yang Nannan who is by your side and lingers with you. I used to have a little illusion about you, but now that you have ruthlessly told the story, I can be sure of you! ”

Guo Haodong's heart trembled, and he simply gritted his teeth: "Lan Lan, if you see me as a sinister villain, then you should be glad to leave me." After all, nothing has happened between us yet. ”

"Is there really nothing happening between us?" Chen Lanlan asked coldly.

Guo Haodong was stunned and said, "What happened between us? ”

Chen Lanlan snorted in her nostrils: "Do you think that if we have slept with each other, what will happen?" I threw myself into the flood for your sake, and I did not hesitate to suck the venom of the snake from your wounds for your sake. Isn't this 'what happened' at the cost of human lives? ”

Guo Haodong looked back on the past and couldn't help but close his painful eyes.

"Haodong, don't you really miss the old love? Do you really want to drive me to death? Chen Lanlan saw that the other party was speechless, so she took the opportunity to launch an offensive.

Guo Haodong pondered for a while, and finally turned his heart sideways: "Lan Lan, I failed you." If you want me to make up for anything, I will be unequivocal. ”

"I made you compensate for marrying me. Won't you be ambiguous? Chen Lanlan asked in a mocking tone.

Guo Haodong was stunned for a moment, and then reacted: "This is not compensation. So I have to be vague. ”

"Then do you think losing money is compensation?"

As soon as Guo Haodong heard the other party's question, he took advantage of the situation and said: "If you hope that money can heal the wounds in your heart. I'd rather compensate you financially. ”

"Hahaha, since you think I'm a money worshipper, then I don't have anything to say, tell me how much you compensate me, right?"

Guo Haodong hesitated, and then gritted his teeth: "Then you can tell me a number." ”

"A million!" Chen Lanlan said in a heavy tone.

Guo Haodong's expression changed: "So much? You..."

"Oh, am I talking too much? This million may be an astronomical amount for ordinary people. But you and Nan Nan are both second-generation officials, and besides, Nan Nan's father is still ********, and he must have embezzled a lot of money. I've heard that ordinary corrupt officials who have fallen from power are generally corrupt and the number of corrupt officials is hundreds of millions of yuan. That's not even a fraction of a million. Does it make you embarrassed? ”

Guo Haodong's face changed: "Lan Lan, you'd better not talk nonsense." It's best not to associate me and Nan Nan's parents with those corrupt officials. ”

"Haha, please don't get angry. I can't say anything about your parents though. But Nan Nan's father must have a problem. That's what you said. Otherwise, he wouldn't have hired a murderer to kill him in the first place. ”

When Guo Haodong heard her words, his head almost exploded. He recalled his mother's words, don't regret it - he told Lan Lan about this in the first place, it was really a thousand mistakes.
