Chapter 7: The Suppressed Cry

The first time An Yuanyao met the one named Liu Changqing was at the wedding of her best friend, Li Wanran.

Dressed in a suit, he is extraordinary, he combs his hair up, and he looks very handsome on the outside, and the smile on his face seems to be overflowing.

Compared with Li Wanran, who had a cold face during the toast, Liu Changqing has always smiled brightly, even so, noticing that his wife's expression is not right, Liu Changqing will lower his head and ask softly with a worried expression on his face.

An Yuanyao saw it in her eyes.

For the first time, she was a little jealous of Li Wanran.

The competition for the love triangle, although it ended with An Yuanyao's victory, An Yuanyao also firmly tied the man she had been thinking about firmly by her side, she took care of it meticulously, and every night she had to wait until the other party came home to heat up the meal.

But each time, he glanced at the food with a somewhat flat face, and then said that he was not hungry or had eaten outside.

She'd never been in the kitchen before.

She went to the teacher, read the cookbook, and asked others for advice, she was already learning these things very hard, and every time she thought about it, she could praise herself when she ate the food she cooked......

No, even a second of laughter, a small word of good work, she feels that everything she does is worth it.

But the reality is very cruel.

Over the years of marriage, she prepared meals day after day, waited until twelve o'clock in the morning every day, waited for him to come home, boiled hot water for him, helped him hand his shoes, helped him hang his clothes, and his clothes were all hand-washed.

The long hours of rest in the early hours of the morning made An Yuanyao's mental state extremely poor.

Compared with Liu Changqing's ex-wife, Li Wanran, her skin condition is not comparable at all.

Although from an outsider's point of view, the gap between the two is not so exaggerated, but in An Yuanyao's opinion, it is simply a heavy blow.

One has never been happy since he got married, goes to bed in the early hours of the morning every day, often has insomnia at night, and has never been nourished by his soul.

Since getting married, my husband has done his best, he will say that he loves you every day, he will prepare gifts every month, the housework is all-inclusive, and the meals are very delicious.

I remember that when I first started learning to cook, An Yuanyao did ask Liu Changqing for advice.

She was happier than herself.

An Yuanyao was so envious.

She doesn't want her marriage to be like the other party, she just wants a little bit, even if it's just a simple sentence of "I love you".

The alarm clock on the wall has the number 12 in its hour, minute, and second hands.

"Today...... Aren't you coming back again......"

A faint silence sounded.

An Yuanyao's gaze drifted to the door.

She had waited long enough that her head felt a little swollen.

With one hand propped up on the sofa, he struggled to stand up, and before he could take two steps, he heard the sound of the door lock being opened.

First stunned for a moment, and then there was a burst of ecstasy in my heart.

He's back!

"Chongming!"

Shouting her name, An Yuanyao trotted towards the door.

The steps were a little impatient, and he almost fell to the ground.

Steady yourself and look at the door.

The door was opened, and Li Chongming's face did not have any expression.

He just glanced at An Yuanyao, didn't even bother to make an expression, just nodded slightly.

His reaction, An Yuanyao had a full view, and a trace of loss flashed in his eyes, which was quickly covered up.

I tried my best to make a smiling face.

"If you're hungry or not, I'll make a ......"

"I've already eaten it."

An Yuanyao felt as if her neck was choked, and she opened her mouth for a long time.

Li Chongming took off his shoes, changed into indoor slippers, and walked past An Yuanyao.

He tugged at his tie with one hand, but the voice came out.

"I won't be back tomorrow, the company has been a bit busy lately."

Exhaling softly, An Yuanyao calmed down.

"Is there something wrong with the company?"

She squeezed out a laugh.

trotted to follow Li Chongming's side, tilting his head to look at his husband.

"Don't be too tired yourself, I'll make you some soup tomorrow, and then I'll send the ......"

"No need, I'll eat my own."

“……”

An Yuanyao closed her mouth.

"The day after tomorrow...... We ...... the day after tomorrow."

"I'm also very busy the day after tomorrow."

"Big ...... The day after tomorrow ......"

"Just as busy."

Li Chongming didn't notice that An Yuanyao's head was getting lower and lower, and when she looked at the past, she couldn't see her face clearly.

Perhaps sensing that there was no sound behind him, Li Chongming turned his head and glanced at An Yuanyao.

"It's Li Wanran......"

An Yuanyao's voice was low and terrifying.

Li Chongming didn't hear it very clearly.

"What?"

"It's to move out and be with Li Wanran, right?"

This time, Li Chongming heard it very clearly.

His brows furrowed, and it wasn't until this moment that he looked at An Yuanyao carefully.

How long has it been since I've seen her face properly?

Li Chongming can't remember it very clearly.

Her expression looked very haggard, her lips were not as rosy and shiny as before, but a little lilac, and her face was only painted with some light makeup, which seemed to be slightly relieved, but those eyes were ......

It doesn't seem to be as clear as it used to be.

Now...... It's like a stagnant water.

"No, it's because of work."

"Then you won't even go home?"

An Yuanyao's eyes stared at Li Chongming.

"Is it because of me, isn't it that I'm not good enough, you tell me the shortcomings, Chongming ......"

walked forward step by step, and finally walked in front of Li Chongming.

An Yuanyao grabbed Li Chongming's arm and shook it.

"I'll change it, don't treat me like this...... I beg you, Chongming, don't do this, don't leave me, I'm so afraid, I'm so afraid to stay at home alone, don't do this to me, I beg you, I beg you!! ”

In the end, An Yuanyao's demeanor was already a little crazy.

Li Chongming was taken aback.

In essence, he is a timid and indecisive man.

Although he had pretended to be very cold, he saw the appearance of his obedient wife now, and for some reason his heart began to be nervous and afraid.

There seemed to be a voice telling him, run!

"You let go of me!"

Break free.

It's just that Unexpectedly, An Yuanyao followed and grabbed Li Chongming again, and the two seemed to scuffle together, accompanied by An Yuanyao's harsh voice, Li Chongming exerted his strength and pushed the other party away.

With a bang, An Yuanyao fell to the ground.

Her face was pressed against the floor, gulping for air, her hair falling down her cheeks to the floor, and some of her hair covered her eyes, so that Li Chongming could not see her expression.

Taking a step back, Li Chongming grabbed the coat on the sofa and fled towards the door as if he was running away.

Put on his shoes, and the moment he pushed the door open, he looked behind him.

The woman lying on the ground.

She...... How did it come to be

Li Chongming seemed to recall the memory of that day.

When I first met, I was standing under a willow tree by the river, wearing a white gauze skirt and a sunhat, looking at the flying butterflies with an innocent smile on her face.

The girl with clear eyes and a storyteller.

With the sound of the door shut, the room fell silent again.

An Yuanyao stared at the floor, she didn't get up for a long time.

I don't know how long it took before I was in the empty living room......

There was a suppressed cry.

——————————

Liu Changqing's mobile phone rang with a deafening ringtone.

He had just slept for less than two or three hours, and he was immediately awakened.

Because of the weekend, the children went to bed later today.

The bookstore only had one day off, and Liu Changqing just wanted to have a good sleep, but he was woken up by the bell before he could sleep for a while.

Afraid of disturbing the child next door, he quickly answered the phone.

My eyes were so sleepy that I couldn't open them yet.

"Hey! Who is it? ”

“……”

The sound on the other side was quiet, with only a few subtle noises.

Liu Changqing was at a stalemate with the other party for a while, and then retreated sleepily.

"Hello? Speak! ”

"Can you come and ......?"

It's a woman's voice.

Liu Changqing was a little surprised.

I took the phone open next to my ear and looked at the notes.

An Yuanyao!?
