Rather surprised.

She never thought that Jiang Lu would return to China so soon, let alone that he would be here.

Standing at the doorway with the doorknob in his hands, he was stunned, forgetting what to do for a while.

Jiang Lu was also a little surprised, and it took a few seconds to react.

"Don't come in, I'm smoking and choking in the house."

Reminding her, he stood up hurriedly, put out the cigarette in his ashtray, and walked over quickly to open the window.

Noticing that he was still holding the photo frame in his hand, Jiang Lu turned around, quietly put his right hand behind his back, and put the photo frame in his hand on the bedside table.

In the photo frame is a selfie of the two of them taking a group photo when they went on a ski vacation.

Jiang Lu said that it was taken beautifully, and he deliberately printed it into a photo and kept it at the head of the bed of the two.

The wind blew in through the window, blowing away the smell of smoke in the house.

It was a little cold from the wind, and Ning Xi shrank his shoulders.

Noticing her small movements, Jiang Lu coughed lightly.

"Shall we go to the study and talk?"

Ning Xi nodded, turned around and walked into the study next to him.

Jiang Lu followed her in and stood in front of her.

Ning Xi stood in front of the desk, rarely cramped and nervous, and his eyes were a little unsure of where to look.

Suddenly from an intimate lover to a stranger who wants to divorce, she is far from adapting.

Take a light breath and try to calm yourself.

Ning Xi raised his face, his gaze sweeping over the gauze on his head.

"Are you okay?"

"Are you okay?"

Almost at the same time, Jiang Lu's voice also sounded.

Ning Xi heard his voice and lowered his face a little uncomfortably.

"Why did you get out of the hospital so quickly?"

"The situation on the company's side is urgent, so I hurried back to deal with it." Jiang Lu explained, his eyes fell on her obviously pale face, and he frowned distressedly, "Why didn't you come home last night?" ”

"I slept over there." Ning Xi tried to make his tone seem natural, "I'm coming back this time to pack up my things." ”

"You don't have to clean up, you will still live here in the future, and I will just move out."

"How's that going to work?"

"Why can't it be?" Jiang Lu frowned, "This is your home." ”

"But...... You bought it. ”

"You ......" Jiang Lu frowned, realizing that his tone was a little urgent, he took a deep breath and softened his tone, "I've already thought about it, this house is for you, and I will leave the car for you." ”

"No, you don't." Ning Xi shook his head lightly, "I can support myself, you can take all these back." ”

took out the wallet from the bag, and Ning Xi took out the bank card that Jiang Lu gave her when he bought the car, and never got it back later, and handed it to him along with the villa key.

Jiang Lu wrinkled his eyebrows, his hands hanging by his side, motionless.

Seeing that he didn't answer, he would rather withdraw his right hand and gently put the card and key in his hand on the table.

"I'll go pack up my things, and when you have time to call me, I'll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to go through the divorce procedures with you."

Lowering her eyelashes, she strode to the door.

Seeing her passing by her side, Jiang Lu closed his eyes, and finally couldn't hold back, stretched out his palm, and grabbed her wrist.

"I know you hate me, even if it's a little compensation I give you, won't it?"

"You don't owe me anything, and you don't need compensation." Ning Xi withdrew his palm from his hand, drooped his eyelashes, and didn't look at him, "I don't hate you either." ”

Jiang Lu's hand was tightened.

"Then you leave the stuff behind."

"I can't ask for it."

"Why can't you ask for it? We used to be husband and wife, and even if we were divorced, we should divide the property. ”

Jiang Lu turned around abruptly and raised his hand to hold her shoulder.

"You deserve it."

"I married you for no reason."

Ning Xi raised his hand and pushed his palm away from his shoulder, and strode out of the study.

"Pity!" Jiang Lu chased out of the study, "Now is not the time to be naïve and willful, have you ever thought that your father needs money, and when he is discharged from the hospital, he also needs a place to live." And your brother, he also needs money for his case, where will he live after he gets out of prison? Why do you have to tell me so clearly? Even if we get divorced, at least ...... We used to be husband and wife, didn't we? ”

Ning Xi stopped and closed his eyes.

Compared to this, she hoped that Jiang Lu would be ruthless to her.

is obviously going to get divorced, and he has already decided to give up on him, so why should he be good to her again?

Did he know that he was torturing her like this?

Gritting his teeth, Ning Xi turned his face to him coldly.

"Because I don't need your handout, because I still want to save a little bit of my self-esteem, can't I?"

Jiang Lu stood in the corridor, speechless.

Turning around, he strode back to the master bedroom.

Walking into the cloakroom, she ripped off her clothes and stuffed them into her suitcase.

Without bothering to check if her things were clean, she hurriedly closed the box and stepped out of the master bedroom.

Seeing Jiang Lu in the corridor, she frowned and bypassed him to leave.

Jiang Lu grabbed the handle of her suitcase.

"I'll help you."

"No, you don't."

"I insist!"

Rather bit her lip, let go of her fingers, and strode down the stairs.

Jiang Lu helped her carry her suitcase downstairs and watched her put on her coat and coat.

Turning around from the table beside him, he took the violin and brought it to her.

"You were in a hurry when you returned home, and you didn't bring the piano with you, so I helped you get it back."

Seeing that Ning Xi didn't answer, he closed his eyes and changed to a pleading tone.

"I don't force you to do anything else, just this piano, just a piano, can't you just keep a souvenir?"

Ning Xi hesitated for a few seconds, but finally raised his palm and took the violin from his hand.

"I'll pay you back later."

Jiang Lu didn't say anything, and silently helped her carry her suitcase down the steps.

With the piano in one hand and the suitcase in the other, Ning Xi strode towards the mountain road.

The winter sun is bleak, and the girl's back is so thin that it makes people feel distressed.

Jiang Lu, who was wearing only a shirt, stood in the cold wind under the steps and clenched his fists.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

The car drove over and stopped not far away, Xu Shen pushed the door and jumped down.

"It's so cold, why are you standing here?"

Jiang Lu turned around and walked back to the living room, took a cigarette and stuffed it into his mouth to light it, and took a hard puff.

"How's the company doing?"
