Chapter 4: The Past
The street lamps on both sides stretched into the distance, and Li Yin sat on the side of the road, the night wind swept the coolness, blowing the broken hair on her sideburns.
Her eyes were red and swollen and she couldn't open them, she hugged her knees, she didn't know where she could go, the world was so big, there was no place for her, and she didn't even have the courage to go out in style.
Shen Feifei's delicate face lingered in front of her eyes, and her words shouted in her ears over and over again!
Looking back on her life in the past 28 years, Li Yin really felt that she had failed a lot, since she went to school, she only followed in the footsteps of Qin Anzhou, never thought about what she wanted, and almost became the public enemy of the whole school.
Scold! She was stupidly willing to do it.
Li Yin remembered that when Qin Anzhou came back from studying abroad and proposed to her that year, if she hadn't held that little luck and expectation and decisively rejected him, would she be a little happier now?
Even if you still love him, at least you won't live so badly?
The night is as cool as water.
Aunt Li opened the door wrapped in a coat and was startled when she saw the people outside the door!
Li Yin stood at the door as if she had lost her soul, her eyes were red and swollen, her hair was scattered, and she was wearing only a thin short-sleeved dress with dust on the hem!
Aunt Li hurriedly welcomed her in and asked her what was wrong, Li Yin only waved her hand, said "It's okay" and went upstairs.
Dragging her tired body to the last step, the entire second floor was as silent as death, she knew that Qin Anzhou hadn't come back yet, and maybe wouldn't come back tonight.
It's normal for him to be busy and not see anyone for a month or two, and he's used to it for a long time.
She used to call him, but later she was his assistant because he wouldn't answer her calls when he was busy.
Li Yin stood outside the door of Qin Anzhou's study, took a deep breath, and twisted the doorknob.
She would hardly enter Qin Anzhou's study, he didn't like to be disturbed by someone, and there were still a lot of important documents here.
But Li Yin knew what the real reason for not wanting to come in was.
Under the large desk, the last row of drawers is opened, and a beautiful gift box lies quietly.
Inside is a pink diamond bracelet.
Li Yin smiled bitterly, her fingers gently stroking the bracelet, and looking at it over and over again like a masochistic one.
On Shen Feifei's birthday that year, Qin Anzhou was working and earning a scholarship, and he was busy for a few months to surprise her, but he saw his girlfriend being intimately hugged by other men and getting into a sports car with a bright color.
When Li Yin found Qin Anzhou, who was drunk, he had this bracelet at his feet.
He hugged her and shouted Shen Feifei's name over and over again, vomiting a mess.
Li Yin pursed her lips and raised her hand to wipe away the tears that slipped on her face, over the years, Qin Anzhou would also ask his assistant to send her things on every messy festival, and even a fraction of the cheapest of them was more expensive than this bracelet.
At first she was full of joy, but now she piles them all in the pantry.
She knew that the contents of the entire pantry were not as important as this bracelet.
After one last look, she put the box back untouched and silently exited the study.
As a husband, Qin Anzhou gave her an enviable worry-free life, in addition to time and affection, he fulfilled some responsibilities, such as when she fell, he would take care of her, and he would also ask the assistant to arrange for her to go for a physical examination.
Oh, there were some things she knew before she chose to marry him.
So to this day, she still can't resent him, everything is her own choice, if you want to blame it, she is too naΓ―ve at the beginning, thinking that she can exchange love with a true heart.
From the time I met him at the age of twelve, to the age of twenty-eight now, sixteen years chasing someone who would never stop to look at him.
She was tired.
Now that the person he had been thinking about is back, it's okay......
The scorching September sun is still scorching.
Walking out of the air-conditioned office building, with the document bag in his hand blocking his head, Li Yin exhaled heavily: It wasn't so difficult.
It's easy to wait for a car, and as soon as I reported the address to the driver, the mobile phone rang.
Looking at the familiar string of numbers, she hung up again, since Shen Feifei looked for her that day, this number would call every day, and then send her all kinds of messages and photos.
From women's bags and jewelry to men's personal belongings, the vague and bold hints made Li Yin's heart thrown into the ice cellar in the cold winter over and over again!
Weakly tugging at the corners of his mouth, he turned off his phone.
Qin Anzhou really didn't come back that night, and in the middle of the night, this number sent a photo: Under the shadow, the woman snuggled in the man's arms, her ears and temples grinding, extremely ambiguous.
Although the man only showed a silhouette, Li Yin still recognized the man at a glance.
Until now it has been half a month, Li Yin has not seen him again, his secretary came over the next day to get some clothes and documents, and said "Mr. Qin is going on a business trip, the time is uncertain" and left in a hurry.
The scenery outside the car window went backwards one by one, and Li Yin straightened the broken hair around his ears.
Such a marriage is a torture for both him and her.
The taxi stopped at the door of the villa, and as soon as Li Yin got out of the car, a person rushed out from behind and grabbed her!
"Li Yin!" With a sharp and angry roar, Li Yin was taken aback by surprise!
Turning his head, he saw a pair of hideous eyes and a hand with fangs and claws, "Where did you go?" Do you know I'm looking for you? You don't answer the phone, what's the matter with you? β
The person who came was one of the few contacts on Li Yin's mobile phone, Lin Xue.
"Do you know what's going on now?" Seeing that Li Yin was still that dumbfounded, the fire in Lin Xue's heart seemed to be about to explode!
"Qin Anzhou is going out to talk about business now, and he takes Shen Feifei with him everywhere! Do you know what that means? Why aren't you in a hurry! I still run blindly every day, and I don't answer the phone! β
roared, Lin Xue was so angry that she gritted her teeth! How many times did she run back and forth against such a big sun? The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, her hand holding Li Yin suddenly let go, and the next second she pinched her arm as if she was angry!
"Why don't you have a long memory? Do you know that this is Qin Anzhou's disguised announcement of Shen Feifei's status to the outside world! Are you willing to look at it like this? Let that shameless vixen seduce Qin Anzhou? β
Li Yin frowned, and the piece of her arm hurt fiercely.
"Or else?" She spoke lightly, and took two steps back when Lin Xue stepped forward again.
Lin Xue was suddenly choked, and she glared at Li Yin in disbelief!
saw that the other party's eyes were clear, and the whole person still showed a sense of alienation.
Lin Xue was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it, maybe Shen Feifei's incident hit her too hard this time?
She glanced at her lips and curled her anger slightly, "What's wrong with you?" Why are you looking at me like that? Qin Anzhou is your husband, how can you let Shen Feifei ......"
She rolled her eyes again, "We're best friends, and I'm all here for your good...... If you don't want to hear it, then I'll never say it next time, and I won't care about you anymore! β
After speaking, she turned her head angrily, she knew Li Yin's temperament best, she was quite good at using both soft and hard tricks, and she ate her to death every time!
was waiting for Li Yin to apologize to him, but he heard the other party say: "Then don't talk about it in the future, I don't want to hear about Qin Anzhou anymore." β
Lin Xue turned her head suddenly, did she hallucinate?
Li Yin...... What happened to you? Did Shen Feifei's matter make you too sad? β
Lin Xue stretched out her hand and wanted to pull her, but was avoided by Li Yin again, looking at the other party's increasingly cold expression, Lin Xue felt a sigh in her heart, thinking about whether she was too excited just now, so that Li Yin noticed what hunger was?
She squeezed out a well-behaved smile, "It's okay, you still have me, I will always stand by your side and support you!" β
"I was a little anxious just now, but I don't feel sorry for you! That Shen Feifei pesters Qin Anzhou every day, my dad saw it at the last dinner party in their company! β
"You don't know, it's spread all over the circle! said that Qin Anzhou was outside...... Kanaya Zangjiao! Where does this lead you? β
Speaking of this, she became angry again, "You have to take care of Qin Anzhou this time, if you don't do it, you can make trouble with him!" You must not let Shen Feifei's slut be so arrogant! β
Li Yin looked at Lin Xue steadily, I don't know if it was because she was too excited or it was hot, her face was flushed, her long black hair was scattered behind her, her eyebrows were raised, and she gritted her teeth and scolded Shen Feifei for being shameless.
She looked down at Lin Xue's knee-length dress, and turned her face, "Enough." β
ββ¦β¦ You must not let her go this time, and you can't easily spare Qin Anzhou! Forget about those things before, but who is Shen Feifei? If you don't threaten this time......"
"Lin Xue, that's enough!"
"You're going to have to make a big fuss this time...... What do you say? β
"Lin Xue," Li Yin frowned, suddenly stepped forward, and said with a cold look in his eyes, "How about Qin Anzhou, it is a family matter between our husband and wife, as an outsider, are you too concerned?" β
"Me!"
"Of course, you can also give it a try, maybe you have the same chance as Shen Feifei, but ...... That will have to wait until after I divorce Qin Anzhou. β
"You...... What do you mean? Lin Xue's face turned white, she pointed at Li Yin and wanted to refute, but she couldn't say anything.
Li Yin ignored her and turned to walk towards the gate.
"That's right," she stopped suddenly, turned her face, and her face was calm, "Shen Feifei's current style is enchanting and charming, but isn't it pretty and bright, she has long stopped wearing small dresses." β
After speaking, she opened the door and walked in directly, leaving Lin Xue standing in the scorching sun trembling incessantly, her face white and red.
