Jewel brooch [first marriage] v. 61
Xu Shu...... Knowing his size four years ago?
Fu Ming felt like his heart was being grabbed for a moment, and it was uncomfortably tight.
What he didn't understand before, he understands now.
For example, why did Xu Shu propose to him and get married when he 'had someone else in his heart'...... Because the man in her heart is him.
After unraveling the mystery of this shirt, Fu Ming found that the clues that he had ignored intentionally or unintentionally in the past came one after another, and gradually connected into a clear line.
When I met Xu Shu on a rainy night many years ago, I saw that she was a minor and Xu Minghua had worked as a driver for the Fu family, and gave her a brooch for her to be around.
In addition to seeing her mother, the girl returned the rest of the money to him.
It's just this fact that Fu Ming discovered it for many years.
If he had known, he would have known much earlier how tenacious and excellent the girl's spirit was...... So how could Xu Shu put up with only one label of 'Mrs. Fu' on herself?
Xu Shu wanted to marry him because she liked him.
Those gentleness, obedience, and cooperation are never unconditional giving...... Why did she find an excuse to have a child and โกโก with him, and secretly took birth control pills herself?
Fu Mingsui is a smart person, and now he can naturally figure it out - Xu Shu has such a strong self-esteem, how can he put up with a child born without 'love'?
But other than that, she probably really didn't know how to get close to him, so she would rather hurt her body......
Fu Mingsui couldn't sit still, so he stood up directly, and he didn't have time to change the shirt on his body.
During the traffic jam in the evening rush hour, he drove intermittently to Jiangda for a short period of time, but it took a lot of time, and the fingers holding the steering wheel were unconsciously so hard that the muscles burst out, and his eyebrows were frowning and anxious.
He didn't care about illegal parking or anything, so he parked his car casually outside the school gate and ran in.
It was slightly dark, and Fu Ming ran all the way to the door of Xu Shu's office, and happened to meet an elderly female teacher wearing glasses locking the door.
"I'm sorry, may I ask ......" He breathed steadily and asked politely, "Is Xu Shu off work?" โ
"You ask Xiao Xu?" The female teacher glanced him up and down in confusion: "Who are you?" Parents of students? โ
Fu Mingsui wanted to say 'husband', but out of respect for Xu Shu's unwillingness to reconcile with him, he had to swallow what he was about to say.
He whispered, "It's the parent." โ
"Oh, if you have something to do with Teacher Xu, wait a few days." When the female teacher heard that it was the student's parent, she withdrew her gaze and locked the office door, and said casually while putting the key in her bag: "She went to Huai City for exchange and study." โ
It is not uncommon for many university teachers to have frequent study trips, and many of them are expatriates.
It's just that at this point in time, it is inevitable that Fu Mingsui will feel uncomfortable like a fish in his throat.
He wanted to talk to Xu Shu all the time, but if he couldn't find anyone, she wouldn't even answer her own phone......
Fu Ming thought for a moment, then raised his feet to catch up with the female teacher.
"Excuse me." He asked politely, "Where is Mr. Xu's address on a business trip?" โ
The distance between Huaishi and Jiangcheng is not particularly far, although there are no flights now, but ......
It's only seven or eight hours by car.
He really wanted to see her, and he didn't want to wait passively.
Chapter 50: Gems
โ You like me, how can I pay you back? โ
It takes nearly eight hours to drive from Jiangcheng to Huai City, and Fu Ming drove there without a driver.
All the way to the highway, I went to a rest stop, did not rest much, basically to the fastest speed to Huai City.
The female teacher didn't tell him Xu Shu's itinerary, and she was quite privacy-conscious, and he asked Jian Jie to find it through other channels.
Xu Shu went on exchange and study at the University of Foreign Chinese in Huai City, and had two lectures, and he had to travel for about five or six days.
As for the rest...... Jianjie has always been very reliable, and even the location of the hotel arranged by the teachers of Jiang University has been found out.
Fu Ming drove all the way, and his mood gradually calmed down from restlessness.
He was seriously thinking about how the relationship between him and Xu Shu should be handled.
Although the girl liked him, she didn't say anything about it from the beginning, and only now that she was misunderstood that she hinted at him through her shirt...... So how would she expect him to respond?
Fu Mingsui has experienced very few feelings, although he is not 'ignorant', but he really doesn't know how to handle the softness and sensitivity of girls.
For example, now, he can say directly to Xu Shu without shame: I know you like me, I misunderstood you, let's make peace.
It was probably more of a command than a request.
Freezing three feet is not a day's cold, and the rift between him and Xu Shu is not accumulated little by little.
Under the premise that girls have long liked themselves, this rift has become more difficult to repair.
Just imagine, if you like someone so much that you are willing to sign a prenuptial property agreement with her, you will be misunderstood if you are willing to pay silently and even change your preferences for her after marriage...... Fu Ming felt that he was quite inhuman.
Even if he didn't know Xu Shu's mind before, this is not a reason to justify himself.
I didn't know it at first, but after marriage, didn't I feel the girl's intentions for this marriage?
is still the same sentence, he is too arrogant, in fact, he feels that Xu Shu's character is the kind of well-behaved and obedient person, and he should pay for it...... Now he is kicked out of the divorce and deserves it.
Fu Mingsui drove the car to Huai City all the way.
From late evening to late at night, he knew Xu Shu's room number, but he didn't bother, but opened another room in the same hotel.
Along the way, Fu Mingsui's phone was never disconnected, but he didn't answer any of them.
Obviously, at this critical stage when everyone is staring at him, it is extremely incomprehensible that he suddenly runs to another city, and it is likely to cause unrest......
But people can always go crazy.
Fu Mingsui didn't sleep much all night, and after arriving at the hotel, he and Jian Jie Lianmai dealt with some important documents of the company.
When he came back to his senses, the window was already white.
After driving for eight hours and staying up all night, Fu Ming walked to the bathroom and looked at himself in the mirror, inevitably wanting to laugh a little.
He's rarely been so haggard, and now ...... The bloodshot in his eyes was one by one.
Fu Ming subconsciously wanted to get the eye drops, but when he thought of something, he paused with his raised foot.
Then, he didn't take care of the stubble that was slightly coming out, and put the razor aside.
When there was a knock on the door of Xu Shu's room, she was washing up in the bathroom.
It was a weekend, so she didn't have to go to Huaida to listen to the lecture with her, and she got up a little later than usual.
Hearing the knock on the door, Xu Shu thought that a colleague who had gotten up early to go shopping had left something in the room, and hurriedly opened the door-
As a result, the slender figure standing outside the door was Fu Mingsui, his face was a little haggard, and his pale skin and eyes were blue.
She was stunned for a moment, and the face towel she was still holding in her hand 'clicked' off.
When Fu Ming heard the sound of the door opening, he saw that the girl was wearing a hairband on her forehead, and her freshly washed cheeks were like shelled eggs, white and translucent, stained with water droplets.
Her eyes widened in surprise and she looked at him in disbelief.
Fu Mingsui smiled: "Just got up?" โ
"You ......" Xu Shu came back to her senses for a while, and her thin eyebrows furrowed: "Why are you here?" โ
If she wasn't 100% sure that she was in the hotel in Huai City, she would have listened to the man's natural tone and thought they were greeting each other at home.
Fu Mingsui didn't answer, only asked, "Can you go in and say?" โ
After all, standing in the corridor of a crowded hotel...... Not so good.
Xu Shu frowned, thought for a while with a little tangled, and then turned sideways to let him in.
When the door closed, she asked directly, "Why did you come here?" โ
Fu Ming smiled casually and replied naturally: "I'm looking for you." โ
Xu Shu's breath stagnated, and she felt like she didn't know what to say.
It's not that she hasn't watched the recent news, Jing Hui is about to turn into a pot of porridge, he is actually in the mood to come to Huaishi to find her?
And...... How does it look like I haven't slept for a few days and is unkempt.
Xu Shu bit her lip: "What are you looking for me?" โ
"Xiaoshu." Fu Ming's voice was low and soft: "Come home with me." โ
Xu Shu frowned: "I have a job, but I don't have a home." โ
The words 'no home' fully prove that the divorce decision she said before has not been loosened at all.
Fu Mingsui understood, but he also caught Xu Shu's eyes falling on his clothes.
- The girl could see that he was wearing the shirt she bought, but she still couldn't turn a blind eye to it.
Fu Mingsui lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry." โ
"You can lose your temper and get angry." He never seemed to be so humble, and his pleading attitude at the moment was a little rusty: "Just don't mention the word divorce, okay?" โ
"Mr. Fu, I'm not having a temper." Xu Shu was amused by these three words, forced herself to ignore his dark circles, and said coldly: "I'm just a partner who has agreed to marry you, there is no relationship between us, why should you ......?"
And why bother here?
She couldn't help but sigh.
"I know the shirt thing, the brooch thing." Fu Ming took a step forward and took her hand and pressed it on his chest: "Xiaoshu, you know what this dress means." โ
The touch under Xu Shu's fingers was the precious fabric of the shirt, which made her slightly in a trance.
Of course she understood what Fu Ming was implying casually, but... This is no longer the case.
Xu Shu was silent for a moment, her voice seemed to be carrying memories, and there was a kind of cold melancholy of recalling the past: "Actually, I have always been very grateful to you for helping me back then, if it wasn't for the brooch you gave me, maybe... My mom couldn't even make it through the last six months. โ
"I've always wanted to redeem the brooch and return it to you for your financial support back then, but ......"
But the value of that thing is too high, and when she is in a hurry to go out at a 'low price', it may be difficult to redeem it in this life.
"Xiaoshu, that's not important." Fu Ming clasped her shoulders and said seriously: "What I gave out, there is no reason to come back." โ
Xu Shu looked at him quietly, feeling that he still didn't understand.
