obsessed with love

Chapter 244 Marriage is not a child's play

"Have you finished your bath?" Qiao Anming said suddenly.

Du Ruo woke up from the nympho in a jerk, and found that he had sat up from the sofa and was looking at him with piercing eyes.

"Well, that...washed up, I'm going to sleep, you...you can do whatever you want!" She hesitated a bit, and then walked into the bedroom, the door was slammed by her, but soon she came out again. Throwing Qiao Anming a men's T-shirt without end.

"Take it, take a shower, don't freeze in my house!"

Then there was another "bang", and she retreated into the bedroom again.

Qiao Anming took the T-shirt in his hand and looked at it. It looked familiar. Then he looked at the logo, which was a brand he always used.

This T-shirt is his old one!

How could she keep it?

Du Ruo tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep!

How could she not be afraid?
She was actually afraid of death, she didn't dare to look at him, didn't dare to interact with him too much, she was afraid of accidentally revealing her emotions, but just now she was forcibly pressed into his arms by a drunk man, when Qiao Anming appeared, her heart was clearly shaking violently .

Unparalleled Hero, even though he hurt her so deeply, she still immediately thought of these "four words" at that moment.

And he went upstairs with his arms around her, his arms were full of his breath, so familiar.

In the past two years, she didn't allow herself to think about it when she was awake, but she dreamed thousands of times in her dreams that he was still the old Qiao who doted on her and loved her...

Du Ruo lay on the pillow, tears oozing out as she thought about it.

The alarm clock next to the bed said three o'clock in the morning.

There was no movement outside the door.

Is he gone?

Du Ruo got up and went out, only to find that Qiao Anming had fallen asleep on the sofa, with his head resting on the armrest, his arms wrapped around his chest, he had already taken a shower, and he had changed into the short-sleeved T-shirt.

The T-shirt was worn by Qiao Anming before. She remembered that the T-shirt fit him well, but now it seems that the waist is a little loose.

He has also lost weight in the past two years.

The windows of the living room were not closed, and a cool breeze blew in with rain.

The night in October was also a bit cold, Du Ruo finally softened his heart, went back to the room and hugged a thin blanket, but as soon as the blanket touched his chest, Qiao Anming's eyes opened.

He kept waking up from sleep, let alone in a strange environment, when he opened his eyes, he saw Du Ruo's fair face, his eyes were full of tenderness, and his short hair at the ear level had a few strands of hair around her lips...

As if dreaming back in the middle of the night, he just let himself stretch out his hand to stroke the hair at the corner of her lips... With a shake of his hand, he changed his mind halfway, and directly touched her lips with his fingertips...

As if scalded by flames, Du Ruo jumped up and immediately turned his back to Qiao Anming, asking, "Why haven't you left yet?"

Qiao Anming propped up his upper body with a wry smile, and answered irrelevantly: "You don't need to be so afraid of me!"

"I'm not afraid of you, I just don't want you to stay in my sight!"

"Sorry, I now know where you live and where you work, and I will often appear in your line of sight in the future!"

"Are you following me?" Du Ruo suddenly realized, and turned to Qiao Anming, "You deliberately followed me at the door of the pharmacy, and then planned to follow me home, so that you can know my address, right?"

"It's not too stupid, but your reaction is a bit slow." Qiao Anming wanted to laugh seeing her out of breath.

"I just said, why did you just appear at the door of the night food stall? So you have been following me all the time! Why do you make no sound when you walk!!!" Du Ruo felt strange. Although it was raining, there was nothing on the street. Pedestrian, there is someone who has been following her all the time, she can't be unaware!
"Then I have to ask you. It may be too dark on the road. You have been lying on your body. You are afraid that it will be too late. How can you pay attention to whether there is anyone behind you!" This is where Qiao Anming should be angry, "Why did you come home so late? walk!"

"Because there are no buses!"

"Then you can take a taxi. Do you know how dangerous it is for a woman to walk at night? If I hadn't followed you tonight, how would you have escaped from those drunks?"

"Anyway, these are not your business. Besides, I have been working night shift for two years, and I often walk at night like this. This is the first time I met a gangster today. It must be you, a broom star, who followed me like this!" His complexion became even uglier.

"Often? Do you often work night shifts? Often walk at night? Not allowed in the future!"

"Why, what qualifications do you have to make decisions for me?"

"Anyway, it's not allowed to do this in the future. It's too dangerous. If you must work the night shift, then take a taxi when you get back! What if you let something happen to you?"

He only yelled at Du Ruo when he was in a hurry, but he regretted it after he finished.

In fact, his intention was not like this. He just cared about her and didn't want her to be in any danger, but when he was in a hurry, he didn't say the words in the most appropriate way.

It's a pity that it was already too late, Du Ruo's cold eyes scraped across his face like a blade, and he smiled softly, raising those beautiful eyes and poking straight at Qiao Anming.

"Taxi? Do you know how much my monthly salary is at the pharmacy? Also, you mentioned it to me? What qualifications do you have? Don't tell me that you are his father. Apart from providing a sperm, you have to pay for it from beginning to end. You are not even qualified to be his father!"

Hit the bullseye with one sentence.

Qiao Anming couldn't find any rebuttals.

She should have had a hard time in the past two years.

Whether financially or in terms of life, she is alone with such a young child, living in a different place, the pressure and hardships can be imagined.

And he disappeared for two years, and now he suddenly stood up in a dignified manner, as if he cared about her very much.

Why?
"Qiao Anming, there are some things I don't want to say. I ran into you at the pharmacy a few days ago. I thought it was just a chance encounter, but what are you doing with me today? Don't be too much of a person. There is a god five feet up. You think you follow me, knowing that I live in Where can I find it? It's a pity that I let you down, it's amazing!"

She was dizzy with anger, and said everything she should and shouldn't say in her heart.

Seeing that her body was shaking, Qiao Anming knew that she had misunderstood.

"Du Ruo, you have been worrying about this? Do you think I will come to ask for it?"

"Otherwise? What is your purpose of approaching me like this? It's midnight, is it fun?"

"Yeah, is it fun? I don't do so many things, all day long guarding the door of your pharmacy by the window of my room, and following you home in the middle of the night, is it fun?" What should not be said slipped out.

Du Ruo's eyes were empty, and his thinking couldn't keep up for a while.

"Guarding the door of the pharmacy... What do you mean by that?"

"It means, I want to see you every day! I booked a room in the hotel in front of your pharmacy, and sat at the window to watch you go to work! Yes, I admit that it's boring to do this, but I don't have a better way. There is You are right, Du Ruo, I am afraid! You have been away for nearly three years, three years is not a long time, but seeing you again, my heart is full of fear! I am afraid that I will run away as soon as I get close to you, and I am afraid that you will be cold Sarcasm, I am even more afraid that I will fall into it like a fool like three years ago, but you will disappear like a normal person saying that you have nothing to do with it! Three years, my mobile phone number has not changed, but where are you? Have you called once? As for me, I have so many calls every day, every time the phone rings, I think it will be you, but unfortunately not, not this one, not the next one...not every time!!!”

Anyway, it's too messy to clean up, there are thousands of scars between him and Du Ruo, what else can't be said!
Let's talk about it, what self-esteem, what backbone!
In front of her, he has no backbone at all!

Du Ruo didn't know when Qiao Anming left.

By the time she recovered from the lengthy expression just now, the anti-theft door had been closed, and the living room was deserted.

He left, dropped that paragraph of words and a wet sweater, slammed the door and left!
In the second half of the night, Du Ruo basically didn't fall asleep on the bed.

The rain continued until dawn the next day.

Du Ruo didn't need to go to the pharmacy during the day, so she went to the nursery at noon to pick up the tubes.

For the past few days, he has been living with Xiao Ran. The little guy has not seen his mother for a few days, and he kissed him so badly. He hugged Du Ruo's neck and yelled and gnawed, "Mom, why don't you come to pick him up every day?" Where is home?"

Du Ruo felt sad for a while, but tried to explain: "Mom is too busy these days, so it's okay to live with Aunt Xiaoran for now?"

"I don't want it, I want to live with my mother!"

"Is Auntie Xiaoran treating you badly? He took you to eat pizza again and bought you many toys!"

"Hello, Auntie Xiaoran, but I want my mother!" The little guy said in a childish voice, and put his face straight into Du Ruo's arms, with his little hands around her neck, as if his mother would disappear if he let go.

Du Ruo's eyes turned red immediately, and he patted his back and said, "Okay, mom will pick you up tonight."

"No, I have to go back now!" The little guy has a bad temper sometimes.

Du Ruo put him on the ground, knelt down and pinched his face to discuss: "Okay, listen to mom, we won't go back now, mom will take you to eat KFC, we'll go home and take a nap after eating KFC, Mom will be on night shift at night, so you sleep with Auntie Xiaoran first, and mom will pick you up after the night shift, okay?"

"No, I'm going to go home and sleep!" This time he simply pouted his lips and started spitting!

Du Ruo pretended to be angry: "Don't you listen to your mother? Mom promised to pick you up at night and she will definitely go! If you don't obey, KFC will be gone!"

The little guy rolled his dark eyes around, and finally felt that eating KFC was more important.

"Okay, but Mom must go pick it up!"

"Okay, what you say is what you say!"

"Cheating people's noses will make them fat..."

"It's not getting fat, it's getting longer!"

The mother and son held hands and walked along the road to the KFC store.

KFC is located on the first floor of a large supermarket in the town. Du Ruo seldom brings these junk foods to eat, and only once in a while to coax him.

In order to order a children's meal, Du Ruo only ordered a Coke.

The little guy had a greasy mouth, so Du Ruo called Zheng Xiaoran while wiping his hands.

"Xiao Ran, I want to take it back tonight. I'll go to your place after the night shift."

Zheng Xiaoran was a little surprised: "Qiao Anming solved it?"

"No, but it doesn't make sense to live with you all the time. You are also very busy with work, so I'm sorry to trouble you all the time!"

"It doesn't matter to me, I'm very sensible, and Xiaobai is very good at coaxing children, I don't know what's going on, anyway, just listen to him!"

Du Ruo chuckled: "Xiaobai is patient, has a good temper, and loves children, so hurry up and get married and have a baby."

"Go, let's talk about your business, why bring it to us! Closer to home, what does Qiao Anming say?"

Du Ruo took a sip of ice-cola, and replied with a wry smile: "I didn't say anything, but I don't want to hide anymore, and I don't want to hide forever. Things have to be resolved. You can hide for a while, but you can't hide for a lifetime!"

She finally understood this truth, not to mention that from Qiao Anming's words last night, she could vaguely feel that his appearance this time did not seem to be aimed at it, and even the two had met several times recently, and he had never asked anything.

Halfway through KFC, Du Ruo's cell phone rang.

She connected to an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, who is it?"

The other end paused for a moment, then said, "Du Ruo, it's me, Jiang Hao..."

"Jiang Hao?" Du Ruo was stunned when he heard the name, and then a sense of strangeness rose spontaneously.

They haven't been in touch for a long time. The last time they had contact seemed to be during the Spring Festival last year. Jiang Hao sent her a New Year's greeting text message. Out of courtesy, she also replied. Besides, the two of them have been together for more than two years There is basically no intersection.

After Du Ruo moved to Yi County, he changed Tongcheng's cell phone number and cut off all contact with his friends in Tongcheng.

Jiang Hao got Du Ruo's new number from Du Liangxing.

Du Ruo couldn't help but be surprised when someone he didn't contact much suddenly called on the phone, and even his tone of voice was a little weird.

"Well, you're looking for me, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing, but I just came to Chongzhou for a meeting. I want to ask if you have time. I want to go and see you, and... my child."

The word "children" was added by Jiang Hao later, because he felt that it was a bit "conspiracy" to simply go to see Du Ruo, so he added the word "children" bluntly.

Du Ruo looked at his watch, it was just after lunch time.

"I go to work at six o'clock in the evening, can you make it in time?"

"It's too late, I drove here, where are you? I'll go find you now..."

About an hour later, Jiang Hao rushed over from Chongzhou City.

They made an appointment to meet at KFC, and ended up playing in KFC's children's playground. Du Ruo sat by the window, and saw Jiang Hao carrying a big box from afar, arranging his collar and hair nervously while walking.

At that time, there were quite a lot of people in KFC. After Jiang Hao walked in, he glanced around but didn't see Du Ruo.

Du Ruo could only stand up by himself and waved to him: "Here."

Only then did Jiang Hao recognize Du Ruo. He was wearing a black cotton T-shirt. His skin was still fair, but his hair was cut short, and his face was facing the sky. In a blink of an eye, when she shouted "here" to him, Jiang Hao's heart ached. Not jumping anymore.

I haven't seen her for three years. She is already the mother of a child, but why doesn't time seem to leave any mark on her?
No, time has gone backwards. She cut her hair, dyed it back to black, and wore the most common cotton T-shirt. She stood, smiled, and waved her hands. Jiang Hao suddenly remembered Du Ruo's appearance in college.

"Hey, Jiang Hao, I'm here!"

Seeing him standing in a daze at the door, Du Ruo thought he didn't see him, so he called out again.

Only then did Jiang Hao come back to his senses, and walked over immediately, saying hello awkwardly: "Sorry, I didn't see you."

"It's okay, sit down, what do you want to eat?"

"No, no, no, I came after lunch."

"Then what do you want to drink? Coke or orange juice? That's all in this place." Du Ruo smiled softly, acting very naturally.

Jiang Hao quickly waved his hands: "No, don't bother...I have to go back to Tongcheng in the afternoon, so come here and leave." He put the box on the ground while talking, rubbed his hands, and sat opposite Du Ruo.

He looked a little embarrassed.

In fact, he decided to come to Yi County on a temporary basis, and even the phone call just now was made on a temporary basis.

He hasn't seen Du Ruo for three years. During this period, he will often think of her, but he always suppresses not contacting him. This time he came to Chongzhou for a meeting, and he had half a day to spare, so he braved up his courage and rushed over like a hot head. .

The second half of the dialogue is actually quite boring. The ex-wife and ex-husband have not seen each other for several years, so they are just chatting about homework.

Du Ruo asked about Ye Lanfang's recent situation, and Jiang Hao's words vaguely revealed a sense of fatigue. The old lady wanted a child, but Xu Xiaoya couldn't give birth, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was extremely tense.

Jiang Hao is caught in the middle and suffers from the enemy, and he is not human on both sides. The past two years have gotten worse.

Du Ruo tried a few words of persuasion, but Jiang Hao kept his head buried in silence, so she stopped persuading him.

Marriage is not a child's play, and relationships cannot be settled overnight, and she herself is a complete loser, knowing that she is not qualified to persuade others.

But Xu Xiaoya was a bit too much, because Jiang Hao sat at KFC for half an hour, and Xu Xiaoya made several phone calls.

"Where are you? What did your bureau colleagues say you didn't have a meeting at the hotel this afternoon?"

"I'm in my room, I'll go to a meeting in a while!"

"Room? Tell me the room number, and I'll call you the landline!"

"What landline are you calling? I'm going out to deliver materials later... that's it, I'll call you later!"

The two struggled to deal with each other, one was jealous, and the other was a lie, Du Ruo was tired listening to it.

Jiang Hao pinched Xu Xiaoya's phone and turned it off.

Du Ruo asked, "If you're like this, won't she make trouble with you when she goes home?"

"Trouble! Of course there will be trouble, but I'm used to it. Now I can't fight back when I hit her, I can't fight back when I scold her. Whatever she wants to make trouble!" Jiang Hao looked like a broken can, and heaved a heavy sigh at the end , rubbed her cheeks with her hands, and finally said with a wry smile: "I'm going to divorce her when I go back this time."

"Divorce? Is it going to be this serious?"

"Actually, I couldn't get through it two years ago. The reason why I dragged it until now is because I still feel that I owe her a favor. I was responsible for most of the child's miscarriage." Jiang Hao buried his head in the ground while talking. On the table, leave Du Ruo with a heart.

"Actually, I don't care if I have children. If I don't have children, I will adopt one. Now that science is so advanced, test-tube babies can also be done. In the past two years, I have been trying to ease our relationship, but she is getting more and more suspicious. I even doubt her. There was something mentally wrong, so I just couldn't make it through."

When Jiang Hao said these words, Du Ruo could feel his inner struggle and grief.

But this is the second time she heard the word "divorce" from Jiang Hao's mouth.

Marriage is not a child's play, as the old saying goes, why does he get divorced so easily?
