Dating After Divorce - Chapter 64
As a recognized scholar in the Haida Medical Department, Xu Xian’s life circle and interpersonal relationships are extremely simple.
She doesn’t have many friends, most of whom are brothers and sisters in the same hospital. The topics that she communicates with other people on weekdays are also related to medicine.
Heavy schoolwork occupied most of her time, and the few spare time was also reserved for various professional books.
For the romantic and beautiful art of music, she claims to have no talent and is not very interested in it.
When Zhou Ruguang took her to see Pei Yi’s piano concert, her only feeling was—
She and Pei Yi are simply people from two worlds.
She knew that Zhou Ruguang had a daughter who stayed abroad all the year round, but she didn’t expect that Pei Yi in the spotlight would be so stunning and moving, especially those two flawless hands of white jade, even across the distant crowd, she could see that A perfect pair of hands that were born to play the piano.
It was undeniable that when she first saw Pei Yi, she felt that he was a charming woman.
It was an existence she had never come into contact with in her boring study life.
At the end of the concert, the three of them had a meal together according to Zhou Ruguang’s arrangement.
That’s how she and Pei Yi met.
But it’s just acquaintance.
Except for self-introduction and some polite words, Pei Yi didn’t take the initiative to say a word to her.
This made her more and more certain that there would never be any intersection between the two in the future.
As she guessed, her acquaintance with Pei Yi started and ended at that meal.
A year later, when Pei Yi returned to China, the two met again in front of Zhou Ruguang’s office.
Xu Xian thought that Pei Yi would not remember her. After all, she had long forgotten Pei Yi in the back of her mind.
At this moment, looking at the earring pinched under her pink and white fingers, she suddenly remembered the first time she saw Pei Yi in the concert hall.
In just a second of absent-mindedness, the ear stud was stuffed into her palm.
“faster.”
“I’m going back to practice the piano.”
There was a small urging sound in the air.
Xu Xian was stunned for a while, and when she came back to her senses, she saw the woman in front of her lift the long hair from her right ear, then turned her face slightly, and pushed her ear forward.
The heights of the two were similar, and as soon as Pei Yi came over, the upper bodies of the two were almost pressed together.
There was a faint smell of disinfectant on Xu Xian’s body, very slight, and it disappeared when the wind blew.
She lowered her head, glanced at the earring in her hand, and then at the soft white earlobe, hesitated for a while, and finally raised her hand.
She didn’t have pierced ears, and she had no experience in wearing earrings. Before her hand touched the snow-white skin, her heart became nervous.
Her fingertips trembled slightly, and she finally aimed the silver needle at the ear hole, and there was a slight ‘hiss’ sound in her ear.
“lighter.”
It was Pei Yi’s voice, with a bit of dissatisfaction and a bit of blame.
Her hand loosened, and only then did she realize that the other person’s earlobe had been pinched red by herself.
No force was used, and the soft meat was red.
Xu Xian’s eyes were full of apology, and she immediately apologized.
“Feel sorry.”
At the same time as she was upset, she couldn’t help thinking, Pei Yi, she is so delicate—
It is much more expensive than the delicate instruments in the laboratory that require meticulous operation and are worth tens of millions.
She had to pay more patience, more attention.
It’s like performing a complicated surgical operation to save a dying patient.
However, the patient was none other than herself.
She smelled the smell of Pei Yi’s hair and the smell of Pei Yi’s neck.
It made her almost unable to breathe.
In fact, it’s just an ear stud.
At this moment, she could not hear any sound, and had no awareness of everything around her.
She was immersed in this special “surgery”, her eyes were calm, her expression was focused, and her movements were calm—
So much so that, without even realizing it, the bunch of keys in his pocket had already been taken away.
Put on the earrings, about five minutes later.
Xu Xian sweated on her forehead, and her face looked very red.
She didn’t have time to care about other things, so she quickly took two steps back and opened the distance between the two.
Pei Yi hid her hands behind her waist, and a faint smile appeared on her cheeks.
“thanks.”
“You can go back.”
She smiled and let Xu Xian leave, her tone was gentle, but it sounded like an order.
Xu Xian was dazzled by the smile, her lips moved slightly, but she didn’t say anything.
She still didn’t find the key disappeared, at least, as long as Pei Yi was in front of her, she would never find out.
She stepped back again, just as she was about to turn around, a gentle and mellow voice came from her ear.
“The concert is about to start.”
“Dad doesn’t like me leaving the piano room for too long, and doesn’t want me to waste my time on things other than practicing the piano.”
“Please don’t tell him about our meeting today.”
Very reasonable request.
Xu Xian had no reason to refuse.
She nodded, and was about to say yes, but before she could let go, Pei Yi was the first to speak out.
“Just as it is, a secret between us.”
secret–
This term can easily lead to misunderstandings.
Xu Xian couldn’t say a word.
It was not until she returned to the door of the laboratory and touched her pocket that she realized that the key was not in it.
She didn’t dare to delay, and hurried back to find it.
A few minutes later, in the empty hall near the back door, he picked up the key.
In a corner not far away, seeing Xu Xian taking back the key, Pei Yi felt relieved.
She avoided the surveillance in the corner all the way and confirmed that no one knew that she had been to the hospital before she quietly returned to Pei’s house.
***
In the hospital, Luo Zhenting was sitting on the sofa in the ward reading a newspaper. From time to time, he glanced at the woman on the bed who had just given birth to his son.
The woman’s name is Xu Jinqiao, she’s not very old, she’s just 30 years old, and she’s been with him for a whole year.
The relationship between the two is actually not that deep.
Abandoning the lover relationship on the surface, it is more like getting what you need——
He wanted a son, and Xu Jinqiao wanted the identity of ‘Mrs. Luo’.
The room was silent, except for the sound of paper flipping.
Xu Jinqiao turned her head and looked at the sofa.
“Zhenting, when do you and that Shen Rumei plan to divorce?”
“I don’t want our son to have no name or distinction in the future.”
About the divorce, Xu Jinqiao is urging every day.
But Luo Zhenting did not give a positive reply for a long time.
Xu Jinqiao knew very well that Luo Zhenting wanted her son, not her.
If she doesn’t push her hard, maybe she will be a lover who can’t be on stage all her life.
“You promised me at the time that as long as it was a son, you would marry me.”
Listening to these urging words, Luo Zhenting finally put down the newspaper in his hand.
When he reached middle age, his career completely stagnated.
The only moment when he could feel his authority was in front of Shen Rumei and Xu Jinqiao.
The former sees him as her husband; the latter covets his money.
He knew that neither of these two women could leave him, and neither wanted to leave him, which greatly satisfied his vanity.
He didn’t mention divorce, he just wanted to see the two quarrel and even fight for their own sake.
As for which one he wants at that time, he is still considering it.
Anyway, even if he doesn’t get divorced, he can take his son back to Luo’s house in an open and honest way, and then kick Xu Jinqiao away.
This is what I thought in my heart, and what I said in my mouth was another sentence.
“When you and your child are out of the hospital, I will naturally handle this matter.”
Compared with the previous ones, this answer is not so perfunctory.
Xu Jinqiao was relieved, thinking of Shen Rumei’s gentle and submissive face, she couldn’t hold back for a while and smiled smugly.
The door to the ward is closed.
But Luo Zhen and Shen Rumei outside the door could still hear their conversation clearly.
Luo Zhen knew Luo Zhenting’s virtue, but his expression was still indifferent.
Shen Rumei stood aside, her face turning white silently.
“He told the woman that he would get a divorce, but he didn’t give you the divorce agreement. You can’t tell. What is he thinking?”
“How much a man must fail to maintain his cheap dignity through the fight between two women.”
The woman’s voice that sounded in her ears was full of ridicule.
Shen Rumei was stunned when she heard the sound, but before she could react, Luo Zhen had already opened the door and walked in first.
“You don’t have to wait for discharge, you can solve everything at once now.”
The moment Luo Zhen entered the room, Luo Zhenting instantly jumped up from the sofa.
“Luo Zhen? You, why are you back?”
His expression was flustered and frightened.
Obviously, he is very afraid of his daughter.
Xu Jinqiao knew the situation of the Luo family and knew that Luo Zhen was the owner of the Luo Group, but what she didn’t know was the relationship between Luo Zhen and Luo Zhenting, which was actually no better than a stranger.
She thought that the name ‘Mrs. Luo’ was very valuable, but in fact, whether these three words were valuable, Luo Zhenting said whether it was worth it or not, Luo Zhen said it.
The atmosphere of the room fell into a strange solemnity.
Luo Zhen didn’t even look at Luo Zhenting, he stepped forward and came directly to the hospital bed, a pair of beautiful eyes fell directly on the face of the woman on the bed.
“what do you want?”
Her words were straightforward enough, but Xu Jinqiao was embarrassed to speak.
There was a moment of silence in the air, after all, the desire for money and status overcame the shame.
“I gave birth to your father, and he promised me that as long as it was a son, he would marry me.”
Luo Zhen’s face turned gloomy when he heard this, and raised his eyes to look at the middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes in front of the sofa.
“Did you say that?”
The cold voice without intonation, without any emotion or warmth, seems to be interrogating a prisoner.
The last time Luo Zhen came back, he left before the matter was resolved. Luo Zhenting thought she would not take care of this matter, so she dared to drag it on for so many days.
At this moment, he was questioned in public, and a drop of cold sweat fell on his forehead unconsciously.
He didn’t answer, but the horror on his face said it all.
Luo Zhen pursed his lips, the coldness in his eyes became heavier, and a delicate face was covered with frost.
“If you don’t speak, you have said it.”
“If that’s the case, then let’s get a divorce.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned her head and glanced at Shen Rumei who had not spoken.
“What do you think?”
Shen Rumei lowered her head, and after a while gave a low voice.
“Well, let’s go.”
divorce–
As soon as the word came out, Xu Jinqiao laughed immediately, but Luo Zhenting’s face changed drastically.
He knew that there must be other meanings behind these two words. Sure enough, Luo Zhen’s next sentence made his body completely freeze in place.
“Divorced, you can’t continue to live in Luo’s house.”
“If you don’t live in the Luo family, it’s equivalent to splitting up the family.”
“Eight years ago, when the company was handed over to me, it had a debt of hundreds of millions. This debt was made up by me slowly, so I won’t forget it with you.”
“The old house is the legacy of the Luo family’s ancestors, ten million, is that enough?”
“In addition to these, I will give you another 70 million, just do it and buy Luo Baiyue’s custody.”
Ten million plus seventy million, that’s eighty million.
This number, Xu Jinqiao dared not even think about it.
“Zhenting, promise her, promise her!”
Eighty million, not to mention Xu Jinqiao’s heartbeat, Luo Zhenting also found it attractive.
Over the years, although he has some spare money in his hand, after all, it cannot be compared with before.
Luo Zhen will also give him money, about one million a year, to support his wife and two daughters.
Now that 80 million is in front of him, it is impossible for him to have no idea at all.
He wanted to nod his head, but he really knew Luo, which made him feel that things would not be so simple.
It was at the time of the entanglement that a cold voice sounded in his ear.
“By the way, you should know that the man I hate the most in my life is cheating men.”
“This time, if you don’t get divorced, I won’t give you a penny in the future.”
“I don’t want you to take the money I earned and go outside to raise other women.”
“Otherwise, when my mother finds out, I’m afraid I won’t be able to sleep at night, right, Dad?”
There was a faint sneer in the air.
Luo Zhenting did not expect that, after many years, Luo Zhen called himself ‘Dad’ again under such circumstances.
“Would you like to get a divorce or not, you can consider it yourself.”
“The relevant contract, before noon tomorrow, I will have a lawyer deliver it.”
To be clear, Luo really didn’t want to stay any longer.
Shen Rumei left behind her just like when she came.
The two walked one after the other, and soon left the hospital.
It was not until she got into the car that Shen Rumei let out a worried sigh.
“Eighty million is too much.”
“You have helped me and Fanxing so much, how can we pay you back?”
Luo Zhen sat in the driver’s seat, his red lips pursed slightly.
She didn’t answer, stepped on the accelerator and drove the car out of the parking lot.
It was not until she sent Shen Rumei back to Luo’s house that she finally gave a response.
“Fanxing helped me a lot some time ago.”
“If it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t find Rourou.”
Hearing Ning Rou’s name, Shen Rumei’s expression was shocked.
“Did you find her?”
“No wonder you’ve been absent all this time.”
After being surprised, Shen Rumei was finally happy for Luo Zhen.
After five years of hard searching, she finally got a good result. Although she was just a bystander, she was also moved by it.
“very nice.”
“I hope this time, you can bring her back.”
Luo Zhen nodded, rare, but also smiled.
“Don’t talk about this.”
“If you really want to repay, why don’t you teach me to make milk tea.”
“I think Rou Rou must miss the taste of it.”
Talking about Ning Rou, both of them feel much better.
Shen Rumei agreed immediately.
The two talked in the living room. Luo Zhen was thinking about the paternity test for Ning and Ning Bao, and left after a while.
Thinking of Shen Rumei’s worries, she still said a few words of comfort before leaving.
“Luo Zhenting couldn’t save money at all. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have dragged down the company like this back then.”
“You can rest assured that the 80 million won’t stay with him for long, and in the end – it will definitely come back to me.”
