How Should I Tell the Boss That I Want a Divorce? - Chapter 42
After staying in the living room for a while, Mother Gu went back to his residence. At night, when Zhao Xiaotong came to tell Haohao a story, Haohao thought of the woman again. He raised his head and asked: “Mom, you found it in the mall before. Did you find that person? Do you still want to find her?”
“What’s wrong?”
Hao Hao said: “Grandma seems to know her. I saw her come over to find grandma before.”
Zhao Xiaotong was slightly startled.
Gu Jinhan also walked in, and frowned upon hearing this: “Which woman?”
Zhao Xiaotong hesitated for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to conceal it, but Hao Hao said quickly: “The last name is Tan, Tan Qi, no, it’s Tan Xueqi. At the time, her mother was looking for her in the mall by broadcasting, but unfortunately she never showed up.”
Hao Hao has a good memory, and after a few seconds of thinking, he remembered Tan Xueqi’s name.
Gu Jinhan’s brows suddenly frowned, and he walked directly to the bedside and said to Haohao, “When did you see her?”
Haohao thought about it carefully and said: “The week before my mother fell, I can’t remember whether it was Saturday or Sunday. At that time, I was painting in the living room, and I saw her holding a picture scroll to find grandma.”
“Did she say anything?”
Haohao shook his head: “As soon as my grandma saw her, she told me to go back to the room. I don’t know what they said, but the aunt kept staring at me.”
The reason why Hao Hao was so impressed with Tan Xueqi was also because of the look in her eyes. Hao Hao couldn’t describe that look. She looked gentle and beautiful, but her eyes were a little gloomy. When she looked at him, she looked like a monster, and she was disgusted. .
The last time she saw her at the entrance of the mall, her expression was not like this. Hao Hao didn’t remember it for a while. He came to the old house today and saw his grandma draw him. He suddenly thought of her.
Gu Jinhan touched his head: “Well, Dad knows, go to bed early.”
Hao Hao nodded and lay down on the bed obediently. Zhao Xiaotong’s eyes were a little worried, but Gu Jinhan said, “Don’t tell him a story? Tell me, I’ll take a bath first.”
Seeing that his expression was not strange, Zhao Xiaotong nodded. After he left, Hao Hao asked, “Mom, is that woman a bad person?”
Hao Hao opened a pair of jet-black eyes, and his little white face was a little worried.
Zhao Xiaotong tucked him in the bed and sat down beside him: “Why do you ask?”
Haohao wrinkled her little nose, and looked a little distressed: “Mother tell me first, is she your friend? When you looked for her that day, you seemed to care about her.”
Zhao Xiaotong didn’t know how to position Tan Xueqi. She did regard her as a good friend before, but Tan Xueqi went to jail for causing her, and she also suffered from depression because of it, and had not been able to go out for work for several years.
Now Zhao Xiaotong just thinks of her, it feels uncomfortable, and her nose is inexplicably sore. She rubbed Haohao’s small head and whispered: “I’m no longer a friend, do you think she is a bad person?”
The child’s way of thinking is very direct. Hao Hao wouldn’t ask this question if she didn’t think she was a bit bad.
Seeing that my mother is no longer friends with her, Hao Hao answered truthfully: “Well, the way she looked at me is the same as when Snow White’s stepmother looked at her. I even thought that if my grandma was not there, she would be against me.”
After listening to Haohao’s words, Zhao Xiaotong’s heart was blocked. She couldn’t say how she felt, and she didn’t understand how she and Tan Xueqi got here. She not only hated her, but even her son.
Haohao was startled, and suddenly reached out and touched her face: “Mom, why are you crying?”
Zhao Xiaotong quickly wiped her tears and laughed: “No, it’s just that my eyes are suddenly sore. Recently, I have been over-using my eyes and I’m a little tired, so I’ll be fine if I relax.”
Hao Hao was not that easy to deceive. He was not only brilliant, but also very sensitive. When Zhao Xiaotong was very sick, he always cried silently, and Hao Hao couldn’t bear her tears at all.
His nose was also a little sore, his little hand touched Zhao Xiaotong’s face, he sat up on his knees, and hugged her: “Don’t be sad, mom, you and me and dad.”
He actually didn’t know what happened in the past. He only knew that his mother had a very painful life. The death of his aunt and grandfather’s car accident became the last straw that overwhelmed her. When Haohao saw her tears, he was a little panicked.
His voice was a little bit crying, and his small body even trembled slightly because of fear.
Zhao Xiaotong had never seen him look like this. Her nose was sour and she hugged his small body tightly: “Mom knows, Mom is not sad, mom is, but the eyes are a little sour, it’s okay.”
Haohao sniffed, tears flashing in his eyes.
He likes his current mother. Although she often comes back late when she gets busy, she tells him stories, plays with him, and smiles brightly. He doesn’t want his mother to live in pain anymore, but just wants her to be happy. Happy.
Zhao Xiaotong forced back the tears in his eyes. No matter what happened in the past, no matter how Tan Xueqi harmed her, it is already a thing of the past. It’s a big deal if you don’t want her friend, she still has Haohao, and her family, why can’t you think about it? , Because she is uncomfortable.
Her Zhao Xiaotong is not so easy to be defeated.
Zhao Xiaotong sucked his nose and closed his eyes again. He felt that his eyes were not so sore. Then he said to Hao Hao, “The eyes are not sour anymore. Look, are they all right? I’m a little tired lately staying up late, and closing my eyes will make you feel better. , Mom will just lie down here and rest for a while.”
Haohao looked at her seriously, and saw that although her eyes were a little red and her mental state was still good, his tight little body relaxed.
He didn’t dismantle her, and quickly lay down, giving Zhao Xiaotong a place: “Then you take a rest.”
Zhao Xiaotong got into his bed and hugged the person in his arms next to his small body.
On weekdays, when she buries into his bed, Haohao always dislikes him, but at this time, she actively gave her a place. Zhao Xiaotong smiled and kissed his little face, jokingly: “Yes, I know my mother is filial. It didn’t hurt you in vain.”
Haohao blushed, arched in awkwardly, and muttered in a buzzing voice: “Aren’t you going to rest? It kissed me drooling.”
Zhao Xiaotong rubbed his head: “Smelly boy, I just praised you, so I disliked my mother.”
After speaking, she flicked his forehead.
Seeing her regained her vitality, Haohao’s little face smiled. Zhao Xiaotong only then began to tell him a story. She didn’t read the book this time, but according to her memory, she casually told him a story she had read when she was a child. She only remembered one. About the plot, even the name of the protagonist is currently edited.
She deliberately slowed down her tone. She thought that Haohao would be the same as usual. When the story was about to finish, she would be able to fall asleep. Unexpectedly, he was very energetic this time. Zhao Xiaotong talked two times in a row, and he was not sleepy. He clutched the corner of her clothes tightly.
Zhao Xiaotong knew that her tears must have affected him. She blamed herself in her heart and regretted her failure to control her emotions. She whispered: “Baby go to sleep, mom will stay with you tonight, don’t afraid.”
Hao Hao closed his eyes now, his small face was buried on Zhao Xiaotong’s shoulders, until he fell asleep, he held the corner of Zhao Xiaotong’s clothes, Zhao Xiaotong was too soft, and he hugged him and patted lightly.
Gu Jinhan didn’t go to take a bath, he came directly to Gu’s mother.
Gu’s mother had already taken off her makeup and was about to take a rest. When Zhang Ma came up to inform her, there was a flash of surprise in her eyes, not sure why he came so late?
She told Zhang Ma, let her go to rest first, and then went downstairs. Gu Jinhan was standing in the living room. He did not take a seat, but stared at the painting in the living room. The three-story small western-style building was built in the 1980s, and it has been almost forty years since now.
The decoration inside is also leaning towards European style. There are not only Chinese paintings but also some oil paintings hanging on the walls in the living room. Most of these paintings were collected by Gu’s father when he was alive. After he left, Gu’s mother also liked collecting famous paintings, but Fan Yu When it is precious, I like to hang it in the living room.
Gu Jinhan paid attention to the paintings on the wall, and looked away when he saw that these paintings were all previous and had not been replaced in the past month.
Gu’s mother had already walked down at this time. She hadn’t changed her clothes yet. Because she had taken off her makeup, her face was already showing her old attitude, and her facial features were not as delicate as during the day: “Sit down, why come here so late? What’s the matter? Can’t you say something tomorrow?”
She sat down on the sofa and maintained her grace even when she was talking to her son. The two were more politely separated, and the relationship between mother and child looked a little stiff.
It is also a pity.
She and Gu’s father are both God’s darlings. They are from very good backgrounds. They are on the right side of each other. It is a business relationship. Before marrying, she was the little princess favored by everyone in the family. Exquisite, too young at the time. After having children, they were all thrown to the nanny. They didn’t have the awareness of their own, and the relationship between mother and child was very weak.
Later, the child was raised by her father again. When she realized that the relationship between mother and child was normal, Gu Jinhan was already in her teens. Over the years, she had worked hard to mend it. The specific effect was even unknown to her. I always feel that this son is too cold, so cold that she even thinks he is very strange.
Gu Jinhan didn’t sit down. He glanced lightly at Gu’s mother before asking in a low voice, “Tomorrow has tomorrow’s business. I came today to ask you something. Why did Tan Xueqi come to you the other day?”
His eyes were cold, so cold that he didn’t have any emotions at all, which reminded Gu’s mother again of when Zhao Xiaotong was diagnosed with depression, and he came to question her in the same way at that time.
Gu’s mother was a little flustered in her heart. She was Gu Jinhan’s mother. She naturally knew how much he cared about Zhao Xiaotong and the grudge between Zhao Xiaotong and Tan Xueqi. Her first reaction was to deny: “What did you say? When did she come to me? Who did you listen to?”
“Don’t care who I listen to. Since I came to ask you, I have clear evidence, Mom, if you still have my son in your eyes, you’d better tell the truth.”
His voice was also very cold, almost without a trace of temperature, as if she had done something sorry for him and Zhao Xiaotong. The anger in Gu’s mother vaguely suppressed her panic, she couldn’t help but sternly said: “You still know that I am you Mom?! What’s your attitude? When I heard something, I ran to question me, did you put my mother under your eyes? Is it under your eyes, I’m so bad, Zhao Xiaotong, if something happens, Is it related to me?”
Gu Jinhan frowned and said coldly, “I didn’t say that.”
“You didn’t say that, but you did it. If you didn’t think I did something, you wouldn’t have just heard that Tan Xueqi came over and asked me? Why? What happened to Zhao Xiaotong? You doubt this time. Did I partner with her?”
Gu Jinhan twisted her eyebrows: “I didn’t think you would unite with Tan Xueqi. You haven’t been confused to this point. If I think you really did this, it is impossible to come to you again. I just want to know why she came to you. Can I speak now?”
Gu’s mother was a little bit chilled by his calm eyes, her anger was like hitting cotton, and she suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.
After rubbing her temples, she calmed down after all, and replied faintly: “She brought a painting over and wanted to do what she wanted. She asked me for some information. I sent her away and the painting was confiscated.”
“What’s the news?”
Gu’s mother smiled mockingly: “Naturally, I want to know how you feel with Zhao Xiaotong, want to reach a united front with me, and want to borrow my hand to get rid of Zhao Xiaotong. I don’t like Zhao Xiaotong, and I don’t like it anymore, as long as she is still my family. My daughter-in-law, I can’t really harm her, I let her leave directly.”
Naturally, mother Gu rejected Tan Xueqi not because she liked Zhao Xiaotong. She just didn’t like it and would only embarrass her in her own way. How could it be possible for outsiders to see the joke? Tan Xueqi only inquired that Gu’s mother didn’t like Zhao Xiaotong and made trouble for her more than once, so she thought that she could join hands with her, and the result was naturally unsatisfactory.
Gu Jinhan’s eyes were full of disappointment: “Why didn’t you tell me what she came here? Do you still want me to divorce Tongtong? Are you waiting for Tan Xueqi to deal with her?”
Mother Gu’s breath was choked, and when she met his disappointed eyes, she didn’t know what to say for a while.
Naturally, she hoped that they could get a divorce. In addition to being more beautiful and talented in music, Zhao Xiaotong is worthy of him? After getting married, she even suffered from depression, a woman with mental problems, where does she deserve to be Haohao’s mother?
If you say that you are just a little disliked towards Zhao Xiaotong at first, she likes to choke her with words. After seeing her sick, she only hopes that they can get a divorce. She doesn’t even understand how the old man and the old lady can tolerate Gu’s grandson and daughter-in-law is a mental problem. people.
Even if Zhao Xiaotong is already healed, she should panic in her heart, because she still remembers Gu Jinhan’s warning, she dare not say anything to Zhao Xiaotong, but this does not mean that she is willing to help her avoid danger.
Gu Jin said coldly: “I said that I couldn’t divorce her. You don’t want to help her. I don’t blame you. I won’t let her appear in front of you again in the future. As for Haohao, if you still be him It’s your grandson, so stop talking nonsense in front of him and do it for yourself.”
After Gu Jinhan finished speaking, he turned around and left. He walked decisively. The phrase “do it for yourself” was like a pounding on the tip of her heart. Mother Gu leaned on the sofa, her heart a little uncomfortable, and there was a mother and son completely inexplicably. A feeling of centrifugation.
What did she do wrong? Is it necessary to force her to accept Zhao Xiaotong? Now that she has given Zhao Xiaotong enough respect, what else is she going to do?
Gu Jinhan walked to the main courtyard before slowing down. He had actually guessed that Tan Xueqi was not at ease, and he couldn’t even tell why he had to go this trip specially. He should have recognized it long ago, right? It is impossible for her to recognize the mistake.
Gu Jinhan closed his eyes before going upstairs. He first came to look at Haohao. After walking to his room, he discovered that Zhao Xiaotong was also here in Haohao. The mother and son were cuddling together and were already asleep.
Looking at the two slightly similar little faces, the bitterness in his heart gradually dissipated, and there was a warmth in his heart. He walked over and kissed Haohao’s little face. When he was about to take Zhao Xiaotong away, he discovered that Hao Hao Hao clutched her sleeves tightly.
Gu Jinhan was slightly startled, he didn’t reach out to hug anyone anymore. The bed in the old house was not too small. The two of them were thinner than the other. Three people were actually enough to lie down. Gu Jinhan went to the next room and took a simple shower and lay down beside Zhao Xiaotong. Down.
She slept very deeply, she didn’t even know that he was asleep beside her. Instead, Haohao got up in the middle of the night to pee, only to find that his father was here.
Hao Hao has never slept with his parents since he remembered. He rubbed his eyes, thinking that his eyes were dazzled. Gu Jinhan was already up: “Want to go to the bathroom?”
Hao Hao nodded, and he reached out and hugged the little guy into his arms. In the past two years, he probably felt that Hao Hao was already big. He seldom took the initiative to hug him like this. Hao Hao couldn’t help but put his arms around his neck.
After he finished urinating, Gu Jinhan took him to wash his hands again. Haohao wiped his hands and couldn’t help rubbing his eyes, his eyes were a little red again.
Gu Jinhan lowered his eyes and glanced at him: “What’s the matter?”
Haohao whispered: “Dad is really good.”
Gu Jinhan smiled and stroked his head: “What silly thing to say.”
Haohao also laughed. The little guy was completely energetic now, and remembered about his mother’s crying nose again, and couldn’t help telling his father: “Dad, mother is crying today.”
Gu Jinhan frowned and asked what was going on. Hao Hao briefly explained a few words, and then worried: “Will my mother still get sick?”
Gu Jinhan rubbed his head and picked him up again. He was tall, holding him like a doll: “No, mom has suffered a lot. You have to love mom more in the future, do you know? ?”
Haohao nodded, and put his arms around Gu Jinhan’s neck: “Dad also loves mom more.”
Gu Jinhan didn’t seem to expect that he would say this, and smiled: “Do you still use your advice?
