Volume 6: The City of the Heart (18)
The sky is blue.
It is in stark contrast to the scorching sun.
However, the dazzling golden light enveloped the entire sky, which really made people look up and admire, and lost one of the beauty of midsummer. It's like fog and rainy days, and you can't always look up and see through it.
"Dad, what's wrong?"
His daughter's curious voice interrupted Chen Zhao's somewhat complicated thoughts facing the window, he turned his head, hid his somewhat gloomy eyes, touched her head, smiled a little reluctantly, and said, "No." ”
Yang Xiaoru's words kept echoing in Chen Zhao's mind, and his forced smile quickly converged.
Split up Yu Yazhi and Zhang Jun?
Are you kidding!?
How much did Yu Yazhi and Zhang Jun help him in the past? Now that the two have chosen to be together, there is no way he would choose to do such a thing anyway!
But what Yang Xiaoru's sentence 'makes you feel bad' means, Chen Zhao himself knows it...
What to do?
Chen Zhao was actually a little panicked. Ming Mingcai and Xia Qing have resumed their simple lives, and he really doesn't want this matter to ruin the peace between the two again....
It was 9:40 p.m.
Chen Zhao lay on the bed and couldn't sleep, smelling the cheap mosquito scent, accompanied by the buzzing and noisy mosquito sound in his ears was the sound of his daughter and Xia Qing's steady breathing, and the cypress trees that were blown by the wind outside the window were gently swaying, and the leaves were fluttering, with a faint sound... This ordinary thing made his heart more and more quiet.
"Let's talk to Yang Xiaoru tomorrow."
In the end, Chen Zhao made this decision.
He knew that he could no longer escape and be at the mercy of Yang Xiaoru. Not facing it will only make his fear superimposed, he wants to solve this root cause of this pain, but the way is by no means to help Yang Xiaoru do those things that hurt Zhang Jun...
Chen Zhao wants to face everything. But he just wanted to solve it, but he couldn't think of a way.
Yes, because there's only one real solution... That is to completely isolate the guilt of Xia Qing and his own uneasiness. That is, let Xia Qing and Zhang Jun know all this.
Of course, this method Chen Zhao subconsciously, no, maybe it will exist in the subconscious of those who have made mistakes. But they won't use it, because the fear they face crushes their courage. So, he still can't solve this problem.
Next.
Chen Zhao came to Yang Xiaoru's house when he got off work at 4 p.m.
Yang Xiaoru does not have a job now and takes care of her children at home all day. Although he has no income, his family's living support and Zhang Jun's salary are enough to live.
In the face of Chen Zhao's arrival, she seemed to have predicted that water had already been boiled on the coffee table and tea was being brewed.
"Tea, huh?"
"It's all right..."
"This tea seems to be quite expensive, it was given by Boss Zhang Jun, but he didn't take it away when he divorced." Yang Xiaoru smiled.
Chen Zhao doesn't know how to taste tea. For him, it was no different from drinking boiled water, and after taking a sip, he lowered his head and whispered, "I'm here to talk to you, and I can't agree to the request you said yesterday." ”
Yang Xiaoru was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes were a little cold, "Why can't you agree?" ”
"How do you make me agree? Zhang Jun has already decided to be with Yu Yazhi. Zhang Junting likes Yu Yazhi, and Yu Yazhi does not rule him out. Both of them have good personalities, and being together is a thing for both of them, how can I destroy it? ”
Chen Zhao said seriously, "Isn't it good that you give up and bless them?" Although Zhang Jun is divorced, he has left everything to you, although I know that it is wrong for him to abandon the relationship of the past ten years, but this is also a mistake that cannot be made up. ”
Chen Zhao didn't know if his words were useful.
Because he didn't know Yang Xiaoru, he didn't know what this woman's choice would be. He didn't understand what Yang Xiaoru's reason for destroying them was?
Do you want to get back together?
It's not possible anymore, is it!?
Yang Xiaoru laughed, she put down the half-raised cup, her eyes were full of banter, "Chen Zhao, you are really interesting." You want them to be together, aren't you afraid that you will feel more guilty about Zhang Jun? ”
Speaking of this, her smile stopped, and her face was calm, "But you don't have to worry. Do you think my purpose is to get back together with Zhang Jun? No, Chen Zhao, you are wrong. I knew it was impossible to get back together, and I was done with him. I just don't want to see him happy, you know? ”
I don't want to see him happy, the words came out of Yang Xiaoru's mouth so easily.
This flat tone made Chen Zhao stunned for a while.
"Yang Xiaoru, what do you mean by this?" Chen Zhao said in a deep voice, "You have been together for ten years, and you are divorced, you shouldn't say such things, right?!" ”
"Chen Zhao, it's because we've been together for ten years that I'm unwilling. I'm really unwilling, he got rid of me so decisively, and quickly got together with other women, what did he think of the ten-year relationship I cared about? ”
Yang Xiaoru sneered, "You ask yourself, if it is Xia Qing who divorces you immediately, and then immediately gets with other men, what would you think?" Will you smile and bless? ”
"You won't, Chen Zhao. All of us are selfish and hypocritical, and the word greatness does not exist in the blood of us ordinary people. He's made it impossible for me to be happy, so he has to end up like me. ”
The last words put an end to some of the great truths that Chen Zhao wanted to continue to expound.
Yang Xiaoru's dangerous thoughts made him a little scared.
It's not the type to be prepared for danger in times of peace, because he is already on the verge of danger. Yang Xiaoru is like a time bomb, he is very afraid that if he accidentally detonates next to him, what should he do?
He took a deep breath to calm himself down and slowed his tone, "I can't persuade you, but I can't help you either." Zhang Jun has helped me a lot, and I can't destroy his happiness. ”
Yang Xiaoru disagreed with Chen Zhao's words.
He knew the mind of the man in front of him, no, maybe it was clear, but it was better to feel it thoroughly.
Can this person who has a six-point similar personality to Zhang Jun have a different thought?
Sure enough, like gathers.
"You really value feelings, like Zhang Jun, you value brotherhood. He would rather see me crying and looking for death than lend you money.... You too, I'd rather tell Xia Qing about us than hurt him. ”
Chen Zhao's face turned pale.
It was like a compliment, but Chen Zhao couldn't be happy. Because he could feel that Yang Xiaoru's words were full of some unknown irony.
"Can't we settle our affairs well?" Chen Zhao wanted to pretend that he didn't care, "I can meet any requirements you have, as long as I can do it." ”
"Requirements? All I ask is for you to help me break up with Zhang Jun. Chen Zhao, I know that you and Yu Yazhi seem to have a good relationship, as long as you are willing to help, our affairs can be hidden like this, forever. Xia Qing will never know. ”
"Except for this!" Chen Zhao gritted his teeth, "I'm sorry for Zhang Jun a lot, I can't be sorry for him anymore." ”
"Then don't talk about it..."
Yang Xiaoru sneered, "I'll give you a day to think about it, I'm not discussing it with you now." You reply to me tomorrow, or you don't help me, I'll tell Xia Qing about it, or help me..."
...
This is the end of the conversation between the two.
When leaving, Chen Zhao could still hear the cry of Yang Xiaoru's child in the room. She sent herself away with a strange gaze, and finally walked into the room. That's the look that seems to put Zhang Jun's things above the child..
Chen Zhao was very depressed...
Or maybe some complicated minds.
He obviously came here with the idea that this matter must be solved, but Yang Xiaoru's approach of not giving room for negotiation at all made him not know what to do.
He should have completely denied it when she said that she would give her time to think about the day. But he didn't say it.
He didn't dare to let Xia Qing and Zhang Jun know....
It's almost the end of summer in August, but instead of waiting for autumn, the warming world is getting hotter.
"What should I do?"
Looking at the colorful glow in the sky, he couldn't help but be silent.
Is it clear with Xia Qing? But Xia Qing, it's impossible to forgive yourself, right? What about Zhang Jun... How disappointed would he be in himself?
Help Yang Xiaoru?
.....
Busy at work.
I'm sorry.
