She just waited stupidly. Keep saying to yourself don't worry, don't worry, Fu Gan will come, Fu Gan must have something to delay.

Fu Gan won't lie to her. What Fu Gan said, he will definitely do.

He told her to wait, and she kept waiting. Wait until he comes.

Wait until someone gets off work, drive her out, and tell her girl, you can come back tomorrow. Look at her like a weirdo.

She doesn't care.

She waited. Wait until it's dark. Wait until your body is frozen.

Wait until midnight.

Fu Gan didn't come, but the elder brother of the uncle's family, Anren, came.

Like an abandoned puppy, she looked up at her brother.

Tears welled up in her eyes.

At that moment, she knew what "despair" was.

Her brother, who had never lost his temper with her, was furious with her. said to her, Li Yaotang, wake up, wake up, you can't be together. Li Yaotang, don't be stupid, Fu Gan is already on the plane at this time. He won't come, it's over between you.

She couldn't believe it. She didn't believe they were done.

But she really couldn't help believing it, it was true.

Fu Gan, gone.

No, he didn't disappear. He's been in that place for so many years. He was just, withdrawn from her life. Leave her alone. Life and death, it is up to her.

However, she ...... But there was no way to hate him.

Because, although he escaped first, she was not able to catch up.

She should have left everything behind as she said herself, as long as her Fu Gan was good.

However, she was not able to do so.

So, to this day, how can she still have any thoughts?

Picking up the gift bag, Li Yaotang's hands were trembling.

She pressed her chest.

This place really hurts......

I don't know how long it took, Li Yaotang heard Aunt Zhao calling her downstairs.

Li Yaotang remembered that she said at dinner that she wanted to eat peanut-stuffed rice balls.

When she went down, Aunt Zhao was scooping out the white and chubby rice balls from the soup pot one by one and serving them in a blue bowl. Li Yaotang took a small spoon and took two spoonfuls of sugar from the sugar jar. Actually, there is no appetite, but what has been cooked, don't waste it. Hearing the sound of footsteps, she turned around, and He Yu was dressed in clothes that went out, buttoning the buttons of his shirt.

Li Yaotang squeezed the small spoon in his hand. I wanted to ask him if he wanted a bowl of rice balls, but the words came around his mouth and didn't come out.

"I'll go out for a while." After He Yu finished speaking, he walked to the foyer and changed his shoes. Li Yaotang walked out silently and looked at him. He Yu raised his head and glanced at Li Yaotang, as if he wanted to say something. Li Yaotang had already turned around. He Yu stood for a while, opened the door and went out.

Li Yaotang sat on a high stool, two lotus leaf porcelain bowls resting side by side in front of her—the curling white vapor floated up, blurred the lenses of her glasses, and her eyes were hazy—she could hear the car outside starting, and in such a quiet night, the sound of the engine was light and powerful, like the breathing of a healthy person's lungs; The sound of tires rubbing against the gravel road gradually faded away...... Far away. And, it won't ring again tonight. She knows.

She sat up straight. The moisture on the lenses disappeared and the eyes lit up again.

She wondered, the sound of the engine of this car was unfamiliar, was it the new Aston Martin? He's rarely driven out on his own lately, and she's almost forgotten that there's such a thing in the garage...... It's almost forgotten that his nightlife is actually quite exciting.

The sweet and creamy rice balls exude a strange fragrance on the tip of her tongue. The extremely incense slowly stalked in her throat, and it was difficult for her to swallow. She stubbornly filled her mouth one by one, ate one bowl, and then ate another......

……

In a house on the outskirts of Beijing.

Simply cut fruit in the kitchen, ears pricked up to listen to the movement outside.

He Yu came suddenly, went to the small bar without saying a word, opened the wine cabinet, took out a bottle of shafer that had been opened, and poured it into the wine glass, and after a while, most of the bottle had been wiped out - where is this drinking? This is clearly drinking cold water. Drink cool water to extinguish the fire.

Simply stood silently behind him for a while, knowing that he was in a very bad mood at this time, and it was naturally impossible to persuade him, so it was better to quietly step aside. Just let him be quiet for a while.

He Yu's action of pouring wine finally slowed down.

He hadn't planned to come here. It's just that I'm so depressed at home that I want to go out for a ride. drove around a few times, but my heart became more and more uncomfortable. A stream of fire is running around in the abdomen, and there is nowhere to vent. He was uncomfortable.

He swallowed a gulp.

Recently, he has been angry like this, throwing his hands and leaving, and he is already the second time.

Because it never happened before.

He was also a little flustered.

He only knew that when he faced Li Yaotang recently, her wandering thoughts and empty eyes made him more and more anxious.

He knew it was because of whom.

He clearly remembered the dispute between the two on the night of the first day of the new year.

He was really frustrated.

Angry out of the door, standing on the side of the street, standing for a while.

But she didn't chase it out, and she didn't even call him. It's not like her. In the past, she always tried to be as careful as possible with him, especially in front of his parents.

It's raining outside. Icy raindrops hit the face, cold.

He beckoned to the car and gave the address. Leaning back on the chair tiredly, his heart churning.

Inexplicable, and a little flustered.

How so?

He was so ...... because of her refusal Wounded?!

It wasn't the first time she had rejected him. From the first day of their wedding to the present, the two of them have always maintained their relationship as husband and wife. She almost never takes the initiative. The perfunctory and indifferent made him feel uncomfortable, and gradually he only occasionally slept together, and there was no happiness at all. He was used to looking for warmth elsewhere.

However, when she said that she didn't want to have children, he felt a fluctuation in his heart.

Although, he didn't expect her to eagerly await the birth of a baby for both of them. But when she refused, he felt an indescribable sense of frustration.

She doesn't love him, he knows. But he didn't get married because he loved her.

She understood her role too well and never interfered in his life. Even if he was messing around outside and coming back to the house, she only occasionally expressed her dissatisfaction, turned around, and still defended him everywhere.

She has something she has to maintain. She didn't care about him at all.

He thought he didn't care.

But it wasn't.

When he saw that she was uncomfortable because of Fu Gan's call, and when she rejected him because of Fu Gan, he knew that he was not indifferent.

She can allow him to have beautiful women around him, but he can't allow her to break ties with her old lover.

When he arrived at his destination, he got out of the car, and at the gate of No. 9, where the butler in gray uniform was already waiting. Late at night, sitting in the spacious living room, he felt unusually lonely.

Yes, he has an obsessive belief in architecture. He has an almost obsessive possessiveness of the house. He has many, many "houses".

But he was lonely.

At that moment, I couldn't help but feel a hatred in my heart. The hatred gnawed at his heart and lungs.

Li Yaotang......

He Yu tilted his neck and swallowed all the wine in the cup.

Simply place the fruit gently in front of him and sit down next to him.

She reached out and pressed his cup and whispered softly, "Don't drink so quickly. It's easy to get drunk. "He's not in the right mood. When the mood is not right, even if the amount of alcohol is good, it is easy to get drunk with a shallow glass. She didn't want to see him like that.

Because when he was drunk, he just wanted to go back to a place. And she can't stop her.

He Yu brushed her hand away and poured out the rest of the wine in the bottle, but this time, she didn't drink it violently.

Simply know that he has calmed down a lot.

"I don't know who it is, I talk about it all day long, and I can chew peonies. Look at you......" smiled simply and gently.

"Simple." The corners of his mouth moved, as if he wanted to give her a smile back, but he couldn't, "I remember you mentioned to me before that you want to immigrate, right?" Have you decided which country to visit? ”

Fu Gan looked at the man and woman sitting on the street across the two platforms. From the moment he entered the door and sat down, he could already see them—the man had his back to him, and he could only see the woman's appearance. She is a very fresh and pretty woman, with short hair, and she looks very lean. Not knowing what the man was saying, she laughed without hesitation, the sound was loud and crisp, and in the quiet of the restaurant, where only the occasional sound of knives and forks touching plates and whispering conversations could be heard, the laughter seemed flamboyant and harsh, but she didn't care. Oh, she took the napkin, reached over, the man said something, her hand stopped in mid-air, and laughed again. Her slender legs in black stockings were taped to a man's legs under the table......

"We ...... Leaving An Zhijia lowered his head and mixed spaghetti. Fu Gan's face was heavy, as if it was about to thunder and rain.

"Nope." He took a sip of water.

An Zhijia ate a small picket of spaghetti into his mouth, chewed it carefully, and looked at Fu Gan intently. It seemed to be a look that wanted to see something on his face, which annoyed Fu Gan for no reason. He put down his knife and fork and folded the napkin.

"I'll go for a while."

An Zhijia nodded.

He just wanted to breathe.

Fu Gan stood in front of the huge mirror in the bathroom, looking at himself with a gloomy face in the mirror. Like a doll hanging on a blazing fire, all organs are in danger of being burned out. Danger was looming, but he couldn't do anything......

His hands were clasped on the cold marble countertop. The cold crept into his heart.

He shuddered.

Li Yaotang, you liar!

Fu Gan's fist slammed into the stone platform.

……

An Zhijia's spaghetti is almost gone, and Fu Gan still hasn't returned. She looked at his empty seat, and her heart was empty.

Pick up a cup and take a sip of water.

Everything you eat is stuffed in your stomach, and you need to drink some water to press it.

A shadow cast over me.

"Zhijia." He Yu stood at the table with a smile.

An Zhijia looked up, smiled and nodded. The smile was a bit hurried, and it seemed unnatural.

She didn't expect He Yu to come over to greet her generously.

He Yu didn't seem to notice her discomfort at all, and chatted with her briefly.

He just stopped for a minute or two, turned and walked away. Before leaving, I also glanced in the direction of the bathroom. Very quickly, seemingly inadvertently.

An Zhijia looked at his back. The woman was waiting for him by the door. The eyes of the two women crossed, and they both quickly avoided each other. She clearly watched the woman take He Yu's arm and go out the door.
