Tripod wedding

Chapter 116 Alienation Again (Part [-])

Xu Qingru trembled when she heard what he said, raised her head slightly to look at him, and uttered a sentence for a long time: "This is your room, I'll go to the guest bedroom to sleep."

"It's close to the study, so it's more convenient for you to live here. Is that okay?" Fu Tianze asked cautiously, not even daring to speak too loudly.

Xu Qingru didn't refuse or agree, she stood aside, lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

Fu Tianze took her acquiescence, so he walked towards the door.Xu Qingru quickly dodged to the side, keeping a distance from him.

Still so afraid of him?
He straightened up, walked into the room lightly, and quickly took some daily necessities. When he walked out the door, Xu Qingru was still standing there with her head bowed, her black hair covering half of her face.

Fu Tianze smiled wryly, this time, she didn't know how long she would avoid him.

He didn't linger, just walked out.

Xu Qingru heard his footsteps going away, walked to the door unconsciously, and saw his back gradually going away, that back looked lonely and cold.

Even she didn't realize that the emotion in her eyes had changed.

Maybe at that time, when Fu Tianze turned his head, he could see the tenderness and sadness in her eyes, so he wouldn't miss those moments.

Fu Tianze went into the guest bedroom stiffly all the way, put down the things in his hands, sat down in the chair behind the desk, opened the drawer, and gently took out the white velvet box inside.

A bright and brilliant diamond is placed in the box. The ten-carat pink diamond known as the "pigeon egg" is cut into a heart shape and set in a white gold ring, reflecting the surrounding light.

Originally, I wanted to wear this ring for her while she was trying on the wedding dress.But now... a missed opportunity.

They got married two years ago. His engagement ring was just a silver ring bought for tens of dollars from the boutique in front of the school. On the day she signed the divorce agreement, she immediately threw that ring from the twenty-odd floors. He went out, and he searched for it for many days, but he didn't find it again.

They were married for more than two years, but he couldn't even give his wife a decent wedding ring.

Fu Tianze closed the velvet box in pain, leaned back on the chair, his whole body exuded a sad breath.

The days continued peacefully. Xu Qingru went about her work step by step every day. Apart from reading books and checking information, paying attention to Yan Han's condition, learning some ancient knowledge from Grandpa Fu, and learning how to grow camellias from Grandma Fu, there was nothing else to do.

She hadn't seen Fu Tianze for nearly ten days. He left early and returned late every day, and didn't even eat at home. He seemed to be working overtime every day.

Xu Qingru vaguely felt that Fu Tianze seemed to be avoiding her on purpose.She too was terrified of seeing him after what happened that night.Her feelings for him are very complicated now. When she was weak and sad, he was the person she wanted to rely on the most. But now, Fu Tianze is sometimes familiar and sometimes unfamiliar to her, which makes her feel at a loss.

Fortunately, the two elderly people are considerate, and they seem to be deliberately avoiding the topic of their husband and wife, maybe they are waiting for the two of them to reconcile themselves.

This afternoon, Xu Qingru found some materials on the Republic of China in his study, read them for a while, and didn't quite understand them, so he went to Mr. Fu to explain them.

Walking to the door of the study, I overheard voices coming from inside.

"Are you sure it was someone from the Zhao family?" It was Mr. Fu's voice.

"Nine times out of ten."

"Is it related to Ruofan?"

"I'm not sure, but it's related to... and the relatives of my younger siblings."

"You mean Shen Dan's family?"
