Successor: Prosperous Marriage

Chapter 217 False Mercy

Ouyang Qing lowered her head and smiled slightly, "Of course, I have no right to threaten you, but you also have no right to talk to me like her husband."

"What do you mean?" Zhan Yuling asked in surprise, a wave of anger welled up.

"What do you mean, don't you understand? You are no longer married to Xiaoxiao. I'm sorry, I saw the divorce agreement in her bag last night." Ouyang Qing looked directly at Ouyang Qing, his eyes became sharp.

The blood in Zhan Yuling's whole body was boiling. He was angry, painful, helpless, and collapsed. He clenched his fists and then loosened them again.

Now that the matter has come to this, what is there to be angry about?
Slam the door and leave.

Ouyang Qing twitched the corners of his mouth, and said coldly to the office door, "You don't deserve love, let alone Xiaoxiao."

The noon sun was very warm, Chu Xiaoxiao was lying on the deck chair basking in the sun, the warm sun warmed her body, but her heart was still cold.

The personal doctor Chen Baoling hurried in, leaned over and said, "Miss Chu, there is a man downstairs who wants to see you."

His eyes opened suddenly, and his fingers subconsciously grabbed the armrest of the recliner, "Who is it?" Chu Xiaoxiao asked with her heart beating faster.

"I don't know. He just said he wanted to see you. I didn't know his identity so I didn't dare to let him come up. Mr. Ouyang made it clear before that you can't let unfamiliar people approach you."

Chu Xiaoxiao nodded slowly, she knew who it was.

"Chen Baoling, please tell him that I don't want to see him, let him go!" Chu Xiaoxiao said lightly, her eyes were as clear as a lake.

"This..." Chen Baoling looked at her with some embarrassment, and stammered, "This is not good, I think that gentleman is very anxious, it's a bit too much for you to say that...how about I tell him that you are here now?" Go to sleep and let him come back another day?"

Chu Xiaoxiao shook her head, "No need for Chen Baoling, just tell her what I just said."

Chen Baoling frowned and went out helplessly.

Downstairs, Zhan Yuling stood with his back to the door, his tall figure cast an elegant silhouette on the ground.

Chen Baoling stood behind him and said softly, "I'm sorry sir, Miss Chu said that she...she doesn't want to see you, please go back first!"

Zhan Yuling turned around slowly, and asked weakly, "She doesn't want to see me?"

"Yes, I'm sorry." Chen Baoling said apologetically, and put her hand on the anti-theft door, ready to close the door.

Zhan Yuling rushed over, trying to break in, but Chen Baoling reacted quickly and quickly closed the door, "I'm sorry, sir, please go back, Miss Chu doesn't want to see you..."

"Let me in, I won't hurt her, I'm her..." The word "husband" got stuck in his throat, Zhan Yuling twitched his lips in pain, his hands were tightly grasping the doorknob, but the anti-theft door was closed closed.

Upstairs, Chu Xiaoxiao closed her eyes in pain and tightly covered her ears with her hands, but she could still hear the roar downstairs.

"Chu Xiaoxiao..."

"Chu Xiaoxiao..."

Zhan Yuling just yelled her name like crazy, but didn't say a single complete sentence, what a meaningful sentence!
Tears flowed down her smooth and fair cheeks, Chu Xiaoxiao wanted to run out, to a place where there was no one, and burst into tears.

It's a pity that she couldn't sit up, and couldn't move her body, so she could only lie on the recliner in vain, letting the pain in her heart torment herself over and over again.

When I got home from get off work in the evening, as soon as Ouyang Qing entered the door, Chen Baoling greeted her, and whispered, "Mr. Ouyang, go and persuade Miss Chu, she didn't eat anything today, and it will do great harm to her body if she continues like this."

Ouyang Qing glanced at the snacks and porridge on the dining table, nodded, "I see, I'm sorry to trouble you, Chen Baoling."

Ouyang Qing walked into the bedroom, Chu Xiaoxiao was leaning on the bed and looking at her mobile phone, when she saw Ouyang Qing walking in, she quickly put down her mobile phone, and smiled politely at him, "Ouyang, you are back."

"Your body hasn't recovered yet, you'd better lie down!" Ouyang Qing sat on the edge of the bed, gently pulled away the cushion under Chu Xiaoxiao, laid her body flat, and pulled the quilt for her.

Chu Xiaoxiao turned her face away uncomfortably, and said awkwardly, "I'm fine, it's quite comfortable to lie down like this."

"The doctor said try to do as little activity as possible now, otherwise it will affect your recovery. If you don't listen to me, you have to listen to the doctor's." Ouyang Qing grinned, with a slightly ambiguous smile.

Chu Xiaoxiao said "um", and took the phone over and wanted to stuff it under the pillow, but Ouyang Qing cut it lightly.

"What are you looking at?"

"It's nothing." Chu Xiaoxiao said embarrassingly, and quickly reached out to grab the phone.

Ouyang Qing turned her body slightly to avoid Chu Xiaoxiao's hand, looked at the content on the phone clearly, and frowned slightly. What Chu Xiaoxiao was looking at just now was the photo of her and Zhan Yuling.

Ouyang Qing pretended to be innocent and returned the phone to Chu Xiaoxiao, and asked, "He came to see you today?"

Chu Xiaoxiao stuffed the phone under the pillow, brushed her temple hair, and nodded.

"Haven't you seen him?" Ouyang Qing asked softly, pretending to be ignorant.

In fact, he already knew the result in the company. Zhan Yuling's gray face in the afternoon indicated that he was either refused by Chu Xiaoxiao to meet him, or he just had a bad nose.

Chu Xiaoxiao froze for a moment, then smiled bitterly, "Yes, I don't want to see him."

"I think you should meet him. He came to see you sincerely, and treat it as a visit from a friend. You shouldn't refuse him." Ouyang Qing smiled.

Chu Xiaoxiao sighed softly, "I don't want to, he is not my friend, at least not in my heart, I can't change the role so quickly, if I can, it can only mean that I... have never loved. "

Ouyang Qing's heart was hit suddenly, and the last sentence was said very softly, but it contained murderous intent, which pierced his heart with severe pain.

"Xiaoxiao, don't think too much, take good care of your injuries, and when you recover, I'll accompany you to a picnic. The reservoir to the west has a pleasant scenery and is a good place for a picnic. Many people will go there on weekends. It should be fun." Ouyang Qing smiled and looked affectionately at Chu Xiaoxiao's melancholy side face.

"Okay." Chu Xiaoxiao nodded numbly, but her eyes were as blank as a piece of paper.

Ouyang Qing knew that she was just perfunctory, but even if it was perfunctory, he was very satisfied.

The days of recuperation passed quickly and were very torturous. Chu Xiaoxiao felt like a prisoner under house arrest, staying at Ouyang Qing's house, unable to go anywhere, and four days passed in a blink of an eye.

For four days, I couldn't do anything, I could only think endlessly.

At dusk, the setting sun is like blood.

Chu Xiaoxiao sat on the balcony, looking at the sky with sad eyes, her heart was in a mess.

Ouyang Qing walked gently behind her and patted her on the shoulder tenderly.

Chu Xiaoxiao shuddered suddenly, turned around and smiled awkwardly, "Ouyang..."

"Xiaoxiao, how is your body?" Ouyang Qing squatted down and looked at Chu Xiaoxiao affectionately.

Chu Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, "I'm much better now, you see, I can sit up now, thank you for taking care of me, I really appreciate you."

"Don't be like this, it's not me who takes care of you, it's Chen Baoling who takes care of you. I'm stuck in the company every day, like an ostrich with its head stuck in the desert, and I don't have time to take care of you at all." Ouyang Qing smiled, eyes full of affection He looked at Chu Xiaoxiao nervously.

Chu Xiaoxiao bit her lips lightly, and said, "Ouyang, I plan to look for a house tomorrow, and go to the company to go through the resignation procedures."

Ouyang Qing's joints in both hands tightened, and his brows twitched, "Tomorrow? You haven't recovered yet, how can you go out, you stay at home, and I'll take care of finding a house."

"Ouyang, it's really unnecessary. I've troubled you too much during this time, I..."

"Hush—" Ouyang Qing stretched out his fingers to press Chu Xiaoxiao's lips tightly, and made a silent movement. "Xiaoxiao, if you still regard me as your friend, then don't say such polite words to me. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of your body."

Chu Xiaoxiao looked helplessly at Ouyang Qing's serious eyes, opened her mouth to refuse, but Ouyang Qing's fingers pressed her lips tightly again.

"Stop talking, I won't let you leave, because you still need to take care of me now, can you talk to me about this issue after you are fully recovered?" Ouyang Qing's slightly commanding tone made Chu Xiaoxiao a little bit Uncomfortable, I can't tell what kind of feeling it is.

Chu Xiaoxiao lowered her eyelids, said nothing, her breathing became very uncomfortable.

Ouyang Qing held her shoulders and said seriously, "You must listen to what the doctor says. This is what we agreed before, right?"

Chu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and remained silent.

"Xiaoxiao, look at me." Ouyang Qing shook Chu Xiaoxiao's shoulders a few times, and said angrily, "I'm doing it for your own good, don't take my kindness as a kind of reluctance, okay? ?”

Chu Xiaoxiao raised her head slowly, and looked at Ouyang Qing with some puzzlement.

He is not his own, just an ordinary friend, why should he talk to himself in the tone of a husband ordering his wife?

Instantly, Zhan Yuling's domineering yet tender feeling filled his mind, and scenes from the past flooded his mind.

"I know." Chu Xiaoxiao frowned, then shook her shoulders, and Ouyang Qing's hands slipped down.

Ouyang Qing looked at Chu Xiaoxiao in surprise, "Xiaoxiao, I..."

"Ouyang, I am very aware of your kindness to me, but I hope you will give me some space, I am not one..." Chu Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and did not say those two words.

"Prisoner." This word might become a fuse, quickly igniting the conflict between her and Ouyang, so she paused rationally, after all, Ouyang Qing had helped her so much.

Ouyang Qing twitched the corners of his mouth dryly, turned sideways to look at the night sky, and said with a faint smile, "Yes, we are just friends, Xiaoxiao, what I said just now was a bit tough, please don't mind, But I really hope you stay and take care of your injuries."
