Hu Qiang's Decision

After Lawyer Guo left, Hu Qiang and Ye Zhenzhen suddenly took the opportunity to come down. For a moment, neither of them seemed to know what to say or do next.

In order to relieve the embarrassment, Ye Zhenzhen quickly picked up the coffee and took a sip, and then praised: "Well, not bad, it tastes really good! I didn't expect that the coffee here is so delicious. If I had known it, I should have Came here early.”

Speaking of this, Ye Zhenzhen put down the coffee and looked at Hu Qiang with a smile: "Why don't you have a cup to try?"

"Forget it." Hu Qiang shrugged, "Next time."

Ye Zhenzhen smiled and shook her head: "Tomorrow after tomorrow, next time after next time. Generally speaking, there is basically no next time. If you do this, you will miss a cup of delicious coffee!"

Hu Qiang laughed: "How is it possible? This cafe is right next to the community. It's so close. There's always a chance to come."

"Haha, you are wrong." Ye Zhenzhen smiled and shook her head.

“This cafe is very close to our community, but it’s not inside the community, so it’s a blind spot.

You see, the biggest problem here is that it is far away from the bus stop and the location is not close to the main road, but in an old alley behind the community, which is relatively quiet.

In this way, when you go to work, you are in a hurry to go to work, and you will not come here to drink coffee.

When you get off work, you usually go directly into the community and drink some coffee at a coffee shop inside the community, or go home directly. You don't go out of the community specifically to come to this cafe in the back alley to taste coffee.

In other words, although this place is located in a busy city, it is hidden in an alley. Young people who are generally unfamiliar with this place or who are fast-paced will not easily come here unless they rely on apps such as takeout to attract traffic.

However, once this kind of freshly ground coffee is taken out, the taste will be much worse, and the biggest competitiveness of flavor will be lost.

So I guess the consumer group targeted here should be old neighbors and old customers who are familiar with this place. "

Speaking of this, Ye Zhenzhen sighed: "So, if you really miss this time, I'm afraid you won't come again in the future, because you are not a person who pursues the taste of coffee. On the contrary, you prefer convenience. Quick, am I right?"

Hu Qiang blinked: "You shouldn't be a scientist, you should be a salesperson! If you were a salesperson, you would have become a department head long ago."

Ye Zhenzhen smiled: "Being able to do something and wanting to do it are two different things.

When we have no choice, we can only do what is easiest first, or what we are best at, in order to survive.

But when you don’t have the pressure to survive, why not choose something you like to do? "

Hu Qiang smiled slightly and shook his head: "Sure enough, your level and consciousness are too high, I can't keep up."

Ye Zhenzhen smiled: "You don't have to be like this, I'm also talking nonsense. As for the previous analysis, it was just an analysis. If you really asked me to do sales, I might not be able to do it well.

After all, talking about it on paper and actually doing it are two different things. "

"That makes sense." Hu Qiang nodded, "Then I should have a cup of coffee."

Just when Hu Qiang raised his hand and was about to ask the waiter for a cup of coffee, Ye Zhenzhen suddenly said: "Don't be in a hurry to ask for the coffee, I have something to ask you."

Hu Qiang was stunned, put down his hand, and turned to look at Ye Zhenzhen: "You tell me."

Ye Zhenzhen's eyes wandered and she pursed her lips, then looked out the window, pretending to appreciate the street view and said: "Well, you, why did you suddenly find a lawyer and want to get a divorce? Is it related to me?"

"Ah, this." Hu Qiang nodded without thinking too much, "It must be related to you."

"Is it related to me?" Ye Zhenzhen bit her lip, continued not to look into Hu Qiang's eyes, and continued to look at the street scene outside the window and asked, "Then, what do you think? Can you tell me clearly?"

"There's nothing obvious about this." Hu Qiang smiled.

After a short pause, Hu Qiang muttered: "How should I put it? It was your words before that woke me up."

"What did I say?" Ye Zhenzhen quickly turned to look at Hu Qiang, "What did you say?"

"It's what you said to your parents, about why my wife left but I never got a divorce."

Hu Qiang sighed quietly.

"Zhen Zhen, let me tell you the truth. In fact, I have never filed for divorce before. It's not because I still have unresolved feelings for Weiwei or feel guilty, but because I'm afraid of trouble." "Afraid of trouble?" Ye Zhen Zhen was stunned.

Hu Qiang nodded: "Yes, I am just afraid of trouble! Because it will be very troublesome to file for divorce, and I am usually very busy at work. After work, I just want to lie down and don't want to spend time and energy dealing with these things.

Of course, in addition to this reason, there is also the fact that deep down in my heart, I feel that this matter is a good bargaining chip for me.

Because by continuing to maintain this state, I can continue to show my misery to gain sympathy. In this way, everyone in the company will sympathize with my experience, my subordinates will not easily make things difficult for me, and my boss will not easily fire me. "

"Ah? Is that so?" Ye Zhenzhen frowned.

"That's right." Hu Qiang smiled slightly, "It's that simple, otherwise, you really think I'm that tall.

It’s not that I’m afraid of trouble, or that I want to show off my misfortune to win sympathy. Why don’t I end this marriage that has long been irretrievable? "

"I see." Ye Zhenzhen nodded, "Then, since you have always been doing this, this way... showing off your misery to gain sympathy, why do you want to change it now?"

"It's because of guilt." Hu Qiang said.

"Guilty?" Ye Zhenzhen was stunned, "What kind of guilt?"

Hu Qiang smiled slightly and looked at Ye Zhenzhen with a gentle expression: "Of course it's my guilt for you, my mother and daughter's guilt, and the guilt of other people who were kept in the dark by me."

Speaking of this, Hu Qiang also turned to look at the street view outside the window and said: "Actually, I have been using the fact that my wife left me to sell my misery to gain sympathy. Because of this, everyone sympathizes with me. It will give me a lot of advantages in work and life.

For example, at work, after everyone knows about my situation, except for a few people, they generally don't make things difficult for me.

In life, my mother and my daughter are particularly sensible and well-behaved because of this incident.

Especially my daughter, at such a young age, she is so well-behaved that it makes me feel bad.

She obviously likes playing the piano and dancing, and she also likes her current school and house, but because she wants to save me money, she deliberately pretends that she doesn't like playing the piano or dancing, and even deliberately makes trouble at school. Want me to quit expensive classes and expensive houses.

Because in this way, she felt that I could spend less money and feel less pressure.

The same goes for my mother. She never complained that I didn't have much time to go back to see her, and she was even careful when speaking to me. She never dared to mention any words related to Weiwei, just for fear that I would be offended.

You see, because of this incident, everyone is carefully protecting me.

Even you, after hearing the words I lied to you about before, you gave me all kinds of care and excuses. "

After exhaling, Hu Qiang turned to look at Ye Zhenzhen: "But, this is wrong.

It’s so sad to live a life of being miserable and living under the sympathy of others.

So, today I was deeply touched when I heard you tell your parents about my situation for me in front of me.

You are a good friend and neighbor that I recognize very much, and I don’t want to continue to lie to you.

Moreover, I have had enough of living with the sympathy of others.

Therefore, I still made up my mind to find a lawyer to file a lawsuit immediately and completely separate from my ex-wife's marriage.

In this way, everyone who cares about me will be happy and I will be relaxed.

In fact, I should have done this in the first place, but I'm really a jerk for delaying it until now.

Anyway, I decided to say goodbye to the past.

Only in this way can I completely get rid of the past and welcome my new life! "

Having said this, Hu Qiang laughed self-deprecatingly, then scratched his head and said to Ye Zhenzhen, who was staring at him intently:
"Oh, I'm sorry to make you laugh, maybe the reason is a bit funny, but that's about it.

Anyway, well, anyway, I decided to formally file for divorce and become single again, it’s that simple! "(End of chapter)
