Chapter XI
Li Jing shone like a lighthouse in front of Liang Liang's eyes, and this feeling has changed a lot from the beginning. At that time, it was natural for Liang Liang and Li Jing to be together, he was recognized as the most heroic and promising young officer in the division, and it was normal for him and Li Jing to be together. However, time has passed, and his fate, like that of millions of soldiers, has been transferred to other places one after another, and he has started another difficult business. And Li Jing is still so young and beautiful, she is already the head of the personnel department in her early thirties, and Li Jing, who has never been married, is still so pure and elegant, blooming in front of his eyes like a white lotus on a snowy mountain.
It was only at this time that Liang Liang deeply regretted his relationship with Zhu Daju, because with Li Jing's existence at this time, he suddenly realized that he and Zhu Daju were not happy together, and he had never really loved her since he got married. In the whole process with Zhu Daju, he has been passive, and Zhu Daju has led his nose to the present. He married Zhu Daju before he woke up halfway, and then, he had a child with Zhu Daju in a daze. Now that he has changed jobs, he has distanced himself from Zhu Daju, this distance has made him see the relationship between them clearly, and at the same time, he is also clearly aware that for so many years, he is still in love with Li Jing. If he didn't meet Li Jing this time, maybe he would bury this love in his heart and think of Li Jing coldly. Now Li Jing is in front of him, so eye-catching, he can't stand his silence anymore, he wants to act. Then, he thought of his relationship with Zhu Daju, and for a while he was covered in a layer of fine sweat. He tried hard to persuade himself, even without Li Jing, his marriage to Zhu Daju would not last long, because he had never really loved her at all. After thinking about it like this, he felt a little more at ease.
When he paid attention to Li Jing again, his eyes became strange, and when he didn't see Li Jing for a day, his heart was empty. Their union office was only a few rooms away from the personnel department, and sometimes he could hear the movement of the personnel department when he stood at the door, and he could quickly distinguish Li Jing's sweet and mellow voice in the noise.
Often, he would involuntarily walk around in front of the personnel department, hoping to see Li Jing's figure. It stands to reason that they are all colleagues, and it doesn't hurt to push the door in, but he doesn't have the courage to do so. He could only glance at Li Jing from a distance, Li Jing occasionally raised his head at this time and glanced at the door unintentionally, and their eyes met for a short moment. As soon as he came into contact with Li Jing's gaze, he couldn't help himself, and his whole body trembled up and down, like the first love of youth. This feeling is only with Li Jing, he and Zhu Daju have never felt this way, after thinking about it, he and Zhu Daju have distanced themselves a little. When no one was around, he once again thought of his first love with Li Jing, every look, every subtle movement, made him fascinated now.
One night, when he was about to get off work, he suddenly received a call from Chen Dahu. Chen Dahu was transferred to work in the organs of the military region before the disarmament, and Chen Dahu asked him to sit down in the evening. After getting off work, he came to the hotel he had made an appointment, Chen Dahu had already arrived first, and the food and wine were ordered. As soon as Chen Dahu saw him, he waved at him from a long distance. Chen Dahu's appearance is very relaxed, and he seems to be a little more sophisticated than before.
Chen Dahu said: You kid, you don't contact me when you get to the new unit, I checked a lot before I found your phone number.
He smiled at Chen Dahu.
The two of them were eating and drinking and gossiping, both in the army, he looked down on Chen Dahu a little, and always felt that he had Commander Chen behind him, and his progress was not his own ability, but the influence of Commander Chen, including his transfer to work in the military region. At the time of this disarmament, Commander Chen also retired. At this time, he did not see the taste of the old and the young in Chen Dahu, but seemed to be more moisturized than before.
Suddenly, Chen Dahu said: You kid tell me the truth, how are you doing with Zhu Daju?
He was stunned for a moment, he didn't understand Chen Dahu's intentions, and just looked at him like that.
Chen Dahu took a sip of wine and said: Let me tell you, Ma Lisa and I are leaving.
Liang Liang opened his eyes a little wider, Ma Lisa was the most beautiful woman in the whole military region. In this disarmament, he heard that the art troupe of the military region had also laid off a lot of people, and Ma Lisha was also among them.
Chen Dahu said again: Really, I don't lie to you, it's the procedures that I did today. After speaking, he raised his arm and glanced at his watch and said: If there is no accident at this time, she has already arrived in the south.
Only then did Liang Liang know that the divorce was proposed by Ma Lisha, she did not look for a job after changing jobs, but wanted to go to the south to be a singer, she wanted to go on a journey and become a star, but her only request before leaving was to divorce Chen Dahu. When Chen Dahu said this, Liang Liang felt some sympathy for him.
Chen Dahu didn't mean to sympathize at all, he drank and said: Leave and leave, what is this, it's not that we can't find a woman.
Chen Dahu suddenly asked coldly: I heard that Li Jing is in your agency and has become a section chief?
He nodded.
Chen Dahu was silent, took a sharp puff of cigarette, looked at the chandelier above his head and said: Li Jing is a good woman, I regret it at the beginning.
Chen Dahu's gaze moved down, stared at Liang Liang's face and asked: What about you?
When he asked, Liang Liang broke out in a cold sweat. He stammered in the face of Chen Dahu, not knowing how to answer.
Chen Dahu laughed, he laughed and said: We are both a pair of fools, if I go back to the past, I will definitely marry Li Jing, not Ma Lisha.
It seems that Chen Dahu and Ma Lisha have not been happy since they got married, and for a while, Liang Liang found the same feeling, he no longer underestimates Chen Dahu now, they are now a pair of difficult brothers. Driven by the strength of the wine, he suddenly said: Dahu, Zhu Daju and I have to leave sooner or later.
When he said this, even he was startled.
Chen Dahu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed. He stretched out his hand and patted Liang Liang's shoulder and said, "Okay, okay." After a pause, he said: I heard that Li Jing is not married yet, if you get divorced, let's go back to the past, see which of us can chase Li Jing again?
Chen Dahu's half-truth joke suddenly made Liang Liang's wine sober up half. He knew that he loved Li Jing deeply, he couldn't lose her anymore, he wanted to seize the last opportunity to express his love to her, but the premise was to divorce first, so it seemed that Chen Dahu was taking the lead again. At this time, Liang Liang's blood was rushing, and there was only one thought left in his mind, that is, divorce. Later, Chen Dahu said something again, but he didn't hear a word clearly.
The next day, he went home. Zhu Daju was a little helpless about his sudden return, and she was playing with her child on the bed in the back room. Zhu Daju hugged the child and greeted her, still asking for warmth, she was obviously very happy. Liang Liang looked at Zhu Daju and the child, and suddenly lost his courage. At night, the child was asleep, and he was still smoking outside. Zhu Daju came over, sat beside him and asked: Liangzi, what's wrong, is there something wrong?
He didn't look at her, his eyes were on the ground, and he said: Daju, let's get a divorce.
She gasped and didn't speak for a few minutes, then froze there, staring at him with good eyes.
He leaned back on the couch, closed his eyes and said, "Leave!" I've figured it out, it's not appropriate for us to be together.
Zhu Daju asked in a low voice: ...... Have you made up your mind?
He nodded and glanced at her, her face was slightly distorted, which made his mind quickly flash Li Jing's beautiful and youthful face.
Her tears welled up, covered her face with her hands and said: I already knew that there would be this day, Liang Zi, from marriage to now, I know that I am not worthy of you, I thought that you could accept me in front of your child, but I didn't expect that you didn't want to live with me so soon.
Only then did he understand why she wanted children so strongly. His heart ached, and he felt a little pity for Zhu Daju in front of him. At this time, another voice said in his ear: Sympathy is not equal to love, Liang Liang, you have to hold on. Sure enough, he stood up, for the sake of his perfect life and love, he wanted to divorce Zhu Daju.
That night, the two sat like that all night, Zhu Daju kept wiping his tears, and he kept smoking. Everything that needs to be said has already been said, and there is no need to say more.
At dawn, he left the house, and the moment he got on the long bus, he suddenly relaxed. After coming to the agency, when he saw Li Jing's figure again, his heart was in another realm.
