Chapter 39: That Relationship

Xu Duan was stunned for a moment, recalling that day, how could he appear in the small square, why did he meet Sang Qing?

Suddenly he seemed to understand something.

He looked at Liang Jingyi and was a little surprised: "You think I and her?" ”

Before he finished speaking, even he laughed himself.

"So during this time, you deliberately avoided me, told you to read a book, but you didn't go, and you didn't go to self-study?"

Liang Jinyi nodded and lied: "I'm afraid that the two of you have that kind of relationship, I'm often with you, and it's not good to be misunderstood." ”

Hearing this, Xu Duan chuckled.

He continued to explain: "Me and Sang Qing are not what you said, that kind of relationship, his father was my old man's comrade-in-arms, and the relationship between the two families is relatively good, she is a familiar sister." ”

It turned out that she was just a sister, not someone he liked......

Liang Jinyi suddenly felt a lot more comfortable.

She looked at Xu Duan and pursed her lips, but she didn't say anything more, but her heart was already happy.

Is Xu Duan explaining to her?

I think so.

But why?

A possibility imagined in his heart made Liang Jinyi's heartbeat unconsciously quicken.

At this time, all the dishes ordered by Xu Duan had been served, and the two of them began to eat, and did not continue the topic just now.

After the two of them finished eating, they walked to the dormitory together.

When they arrived at the door of the boys' and girls' dormitories, Xu Duan suddenly called Liang Jinyi again.

"Now that the explanation is clear, can I go to read a book tomorrow weekend?"

Liang Jinyi thought for a moment, then nodded with a smile.

"Okay, I'll see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

After saying goodbye to Xu Duan, Liang Jinyi ran into the dormitory building quickly, and when she went upstairs, her mobile phone suddenly rang.

It was Professor Xu calling.

She immediately picked up the phone, fed her, and before she could call her mother, she heard Professor Xu's hoarse voice on the other end of the phone calling her "Qiqi".

Hearing that Professor Xu's voice was wrong, she was stunned for a moment, and her steps stopped.

He took a breath and asked in a slow voice, "Mom, are you crying?" ”

"No," Professor Xu immediately denied, "I didn't cry, I just wanted to ask you, the family is going to move in the past two days, what should you do with the books on your shelves?" ”

Uproot? Why wasn't there any news before?

suddenly said that he was going to move, and Liang Jinyi always felt that something was not right.

"I didn't hear you say before, why do you suddenly want to move? Mom, you're not quite right, what's wrong with you? ”

Liang Jinyi asked this sentence, and Professor Xu on the other end of the phone suddenly fell silent.

It wasn't long before she heard a low sobbing voice on the phone.

It was Professor Xu who cried.

Professor Xu, who is so strong and independent, is the first time Liang Jinyi has heard her cry, and I don't know what happened.

She called Professor Xu anxiously: "Mom, what's wrong with you, why are you crying, don't cry, tell me what's going on?" ”

Liang Jinyi stood on the jogging platform of the stairs, perhaps infected by Professor Xu, and her inquiry began to choke a little.

"Qiqi, I'm going to divorce your father, will you choose your mother?"

"Divorce?"

After hearing the news, Liang Jinyi was particularly shocked and couldn't believe his ears.

"Mom, why did you and Dad suddenly want to divorce? Why? She asked Professor Xu anxiously.

"Qiqi, don't ask, anyway, we can't get by, after two days of completing the formalities, I plan to move to the school's welfare house, and I'm ready to pack up your things and move over together."

Liang Jinyi wanted to persuade Professor Xu to think about it, but she listened to Professor Xu's tone very resolutely, and she didn't dare to say anything more.

After hanging up the phone, Liang Jinyi slowly walked up the stairs, thinking as he walked, always feeling that he couldn't let their family break up like this.

Professor Xu is good at everything except nagging, and Officer Liang is easy-going to everyone outside of work, cute and respectable, and they are all very good people, but why can't these two get by, so they have to go to the step of divorce?

No, she can't just do it, she can only wait for the result here.

When she returned to the dormitory, Liang Jinyi had already made a decision, she would rush back to Jincheng overnight and talk to Professor Xu and Officer Liang again.

No matter what the result is, she has to fight for it again, after all, this is her home, and without anyone, home is no longer home.

After returning to the dormitory, Liang Jinyi quickly packed some belongings and hurried out of the school and went straight to the train station.

Bought tickets, waited for the train, checked the tickets and got on the bus, tossed for most of the night, and when Liang Jinyi arrived in Jincheng, it was already close to six o'clock in the morning of the second day.

She didn't go home, she went directly to the city bureau, ready to talk to Officer Liang first.

Early in the morning, when he saw his daughter studying in college in another place in the duty room of the city bureau, Officer Liang was also shocked.

But when he knew the reason why Liang Jinyi came back overnight, Officer Liang also sighed helplessly.

"Girl, you don't care about this matter, even if we are separated, nothing will affect you, you can go to your school with peace of mind."

Hearing Officer Liang say this, Liang Jinyi eagerly grabbed him.

"Dad, if you and Mom don't tell me any reason, how can I go to school with peace of mind? What is it for? ”

Officer Liang pressed his daughter to sit on a chair in the duty room, comforted her and said, "Don't worry, this matter was not mentioned in the past two days, but it didn't really come to this point, and it didn't mention it to you and Lu Xiao." ”

Officer Liang sat down on the edge of the bed opposite Liang Jinyi and continued to talk to his daughter.

"I have basically spent half of my life in the army, I have basically not contributed to the family, your mother runs the house alone, works and takes care of you, knowing that she has worked hard enough, I still insist on adopting Lu Xiao."

That's it, she didn't complain in those years. But since I transferred to the city bureau, he not only has to continue to worry about suffering, but also worry about my safety every day. ”

Speaking of this, Officer Liang paused.

"Qiqi, your mother is now suffering from insomnia all night and night, and she can't sleep, so she is still intimidated by the suspect's family, my job, my faith, I can't pay for your mother's body."

"So this time she filed for divorce in a fit of anger, and I agreed."

Liang Jinyi was silent for a long time after listening, she knew that it was not easy for Professor Xu to be alone at home and outside the house all these years, but she didn't know that she would worry about Officer Liang becoming ill.

"Girl, just ask me here, don't ask your mother again, you know? I've wronged her all these years, so let her have a peaceful life in the future. ”

Liang Jinyi nodded, suddenly a little sad.

Professor Xu loved Officer Liang so much, but suddenly made up his mind to divorce.

Officer Liang cared so much about Professor Xu, but for the sake of the work he loved and Professor Xu's body, he could only agree.

Listening to her father's words, Liang Jinyi finally stopped being entangled, and she no longer wanted to persuade her parents not to divorce, because at this moment she seemed to understand that the separation of adults is not only a break, but also the ultimate fulfillment of each other's care.

After having breakfast with Officer Liang in the bureau cafeteria, seeing that he didn't rest on weekends and started to be busy again, Liang Jinyi had some resentment and distress towards this father.

Unwilling to disturb him any more, Liang Jinyi quietly left the city bureau alone and went home to visit Professor Xu.

The moment the door opened, Professor Xu, who was busy packing up his things, was suddenly stunned.

Unexpectedly, her daughter, who was studying far away, actually came back overnight, and she asked Liang Jinyi in surprise: "Why did you come back?" ”

Liang Jinyi smiled at Professor Xu, and pretended to be relaxed: "I'll come back to pack my things, I'm afraid you will peek at my secret again!" ”

Professor Xu was amused by her at this moment, and shook his head helplessly: "Don't you recruit yourself now?" It seems that there is no shortage of secrets in the room. ”

Liang Jinyi laughed, trying to hide the sadness in his heart.

While helping Professor Xu organize things all morning, she also secretly looked at every part of the house.

This is the home she has lived in for nearly ten years, and she will move out of here with her mother, although her father will still live here, but this is no longer a complete home.

Liang Jinyi has been trying very hard to restrain her emotions, and she still can't help it at this moment.

In order to prevent Professor Xu from finding out, she used the excuse that she wanted to tidy up the things in her room for fear of Professor Xu peeking, so she got into her room and locked the door.

Leaning against the door, she finally couldn't hold back and cried silently.

It seems that no one is wrong, but her home is still gone.

She knew that this would be good for both her parents, Professor Xu would be able to live alone in peace in the future, and Officer Liang would be able to continue to do the work he loved without any scruples.

But no matter how many reasons Liang Jinyi uses to convince himself, he still can't help but feel sad in his heart.

She was immersed in her grief when the phone in her pocket suddenly vibrate.

She took it out and saw that it was a call from Xu Duan.

Oh no, she forgot last night that she had promised him to go to his grandfather's house with her today.

She ran back to Jincheng overnight last night, and she was always bothered by her parents' divorce, so she forgot to say hello to him first.

Liang Jinyi stared at the phone screen for a while, raised his hand to wipe the tears on his face, walked to the bed and sat down, and pressed answer.

"Hey."

As soon as she spoke, Liang Jinyi found that her voice was a little hoarse, she covered the microphone of her mobile phone, cleared her throat, and spoke again.

"Hey, Xu Duan?"

In fact, as soon as Liang Jinyi spoke, Xu Duan heard it, but her voice was hoarse, not usual, and he was a little stunned.

At this moment, hearing her call his name on the phone, he came back to his senses and answered softly.

"Well, it's me, I'm downstairs in the dormitory, you can go downstairs."

Liang Jinyi bit his lower lip lightly, and said to Xu Duan with some apologies: "I'm sorry, Xu Duan, there is something going on at home, I went back to Jincheng overnight last night, and I forgot to greet you in advance." ”

Xu Duan paused after hearing this and said, "It's okay!" Then you can deal with the affairs of the family with peace of mind, and you can go to your grandfather's house to read at any time. ”

Liang Jinyi replied lightly, "Hmm." ”

For some reason, she could hear Xu Duan's voice at this moment, and her mood suddenly became calm.

The phone was quiet for a few seconds, and Xu Duan suddenly called her again.

"Liang Qiqi, if you need help, speak."
