Chapter 54 Conversation
Chapter 45 Conversation
Jing Yan's expression was dim under the soft light, he clasped her wrist tightly, it was so thin that he could easily wrap his fingers around it, she was too thin.They were very close, and he could smell the refreshing smell of her body after bathing. He looked at her fixedly, frowned and said softly, "I don't agree." He raised his hand to smooth her long hair again, and repeated calmly and firmly, "Su Xiaomu, you heard me clearly, I do not agree to divorce."

If you don't leave, you can still tie her up and try to get her back, but if you leave, he is really not sure.

Su Xiaomu smiled bitterly: "You didn't agree with me when I proposed to marry you, but I forced you later, and now you don't agree with me when I propose to divorce. I guess it's because I'm stubborn, I'm willful, and I did something wrong." She suddenly raised her head and stared at him with complex eyes. After a moment of silence, she opened her lips and said in a word, "If that's the case, then I'll force you again."

The ward suddenly became quiet, and the atmosphere was very cold.

It was windy that night, and in the middle of the night, it actually fell the first snow since the beginning of winter. The snowflakes were flying all over the sky, with no direction, a bit like their frozen love.

Soon Jing Yan knew what Su Xiaomu meant by "forced", because since that day she couldn't eat anything anymore, and she almost vomited whatever she ate.

Jing Yan almost didn't even go to the company, and spent most of his time in the hospital with her. Seeing her lonely and sick face, his face became more and more gloomy every day. He also consulted doctors and nutritionists seriously, and drew up various She took all kinds of recipes and brought them to the hospital for Su Xiaomu to eat, and she did not refuse, and ate them obediently every time, but after he left, she vomited them all out, almost emptied her bile, and even the nurses I couldn't bear to watch it.

But in a few days, Su Xiaomu lost a lot of weight again, and finally had to rely on nutrient solution to maintain the basic needs of body functions.

Two more days passed.

In the ward, Ling Ziqi couldn't help but said: "You want him to sign the divorce, there are many ways, or you can just use me as a shield, so that the credibility may be higher, why bother yourself so hard?" Ben, changed from his white doctor's gown to a casual army-colored double-breasted coat, and his hair was cut short, making him look even more neat and handsome.Seeing that she kept silent and only coughed intermittently, he frowned and added, "You know, I don't mind."

Su Xiaomu met his eyes, shook her head and said, "It's okay for others to say, you know my situation best, I really don't want to eat, it's not out of anger." In fact, she really didn't have an appetite, but she just took advantage of it to play a little trick , using her body to provoke Jing Yan's Shen Lian's weakness, forcing him to bow his head first. Although his character is very restrained and tough, he has the most gentle heart, and it's only a matter of time.

She smiled weakly at him, "As for using you as a shield, I guess he won't believe it, and... I don't want to use you."

There is no need to tell a lie that can be broken immediately, let alone involve Ziqi, she has no such right, and every time she faces him, she will feel a little bit of guilt in her heart, she owes him a lot, and cannot owed.

Ling Ziqi looked at her deeply, and suddenly remembered the first time he met her. She stood beside her tutor, smiled and said to herself, "Hello, I'm Su Xiaomu." The smile at that time It is so clear and clear at a glance, instead of smiling insincerely like now, hiding all the sorrows and joys in my heart.

He shook his hand, then let it go slowly, and let out a long sigh.She doesn't want to use her... She has always been so clear-cut. He should be thankful for her respect for his friendship with them, but why does he still feel vaguely disappointed?In fact, she rejected herself as early as 800 years ago.

"Then you really plan to just break up with him like this? I heard that he handled this matter very well. The rumors did not spread anymore, and the news did not have any negative reports. He even set up a public welfare foundation in your name. , quite a sensation, and as for that woman was also punished..." It is estimated that no one thought that Jing Yan could really deal with the woman he called his first love ruthlessly.

"Okay, stop talking." Su Xiaomu made a stop gesture with both hands.

Ling Ziqi was dumbfounded, looking at her expression, he probably knew it, it seemed that she had made up her mind.There is no need to continue this topic. He turned his head and saw the small photo frame on the bedside table. It was a photo taken by Xiao Yao in Disney. He wore a Donald Duck hat on his head. The smile on his face was similar to Su Xiaomu's. exactly the same.In the morning before he went to school, he told himself to take the photo to the hospital, saying that he could look at the photo to relieve boredom when his mother missed him. The corner of his mouth curled up in a warm arc: "When I first met, Xiao Yao A little over two years old?"

Su Xiaomu also followed his gaze to look at the photo of her son, squinted her eyes and smiled: "Yes, I just started kindergarten." He compared his height with his hands, "It's only a little bit taller."

Ling Ziqi leaned back on the back of the chair, and smiled faintly: "He doesn't recognize his birth, he just likes me to run around with him in his arms, and you're jealous."

"Yeah, I've only met a few times, and his heart is toward you." Su Xiaomu seemed to recall his appearance at that time, and his smile became more and more gentle and bright. You are equating with those romantic doctors in there, afraid that you will spoil him, the so-called black who is close to ink..."

This statement really made Ling Ziqi dumbfounded. He showed a row of white teeth, and said with a smile: "It's not my fault for being too handsome, is it? Besides, it's romantic but not obscene. Haven't you heard that the more philandering a person is?" Do you become more devoted to the right person?"

After saying this, both of them were startled, Ling Ziqi's expression was embarrassing.

Su Xiaomu broke the silence first: "Ziqi, you understand what's on your mind, but..."

"But Jing Yan met you one step earlier than me, so you can't accept me." Ling Ziqi answered the words very calmly, and said in a low voice, "I know it all, Xiao Mu, I...know it."

Looking at his clear side face, Su Xiaomu hesitated to speak several times, and finally plucked up the courage to say when he was about to leave: "Ziqi, don't become another Su Xiaomu, it's enough for me to be stupid, you... ... Deserving of someone better." Her tone was light but firm, she didn't want him to waste time on her anymore, it was too unworthy, no one knew the feeling of suffering better than her.

Ling Ziqi's hand holding the doorknob tightened, and he stood stiffly. After a long time, he nodded and said, "You're really nagging. Didn't I say it? I know it. Don't worry about me."

As soon as he got out of the elevator, he happened to run into Jing Yan who was about to come in with dinner, and they paused.

Ling Ziqi didn't know where his temper came from. He grabbed the food box and threw it on the ground. The throat has been severely damaged? You didn't want her when she loved you, but now you're holding on to her when she wants to let go? "

Jing Yan grabbed his arm subconsciously, his eyes were unfathomable, and the corners of his mouth were raised in self-deprecating retort: ​​"I didn't want her."

Ling Ziqi's pupils narrowed, and he shouted with a livid face: "No? What did you do so early? You have to push people to this point to be satisfied?"

A doctor who was familiar with him pulled Ling Ziqi away and tried to comfort him. After a while, Ling Ziqi also calmed down and tidied up his clothes a little. Looking up, Jing Yan was even more embarrassed than him, and his neat clothes were wrinkled. , There is still a little food juice on the trouser legs.He looked at him for a long time before he said indifferently: "She drank half a bowl of porridge just now, why don't we find a place to talk."

It was a question sentence, but it was in a declarative tone, as if he knew that Jing Yan would not reject him, so he walked straight towards the parking lot.

Jing Yan pursed his lips, followed him and left the hospital.

They went to a bar, because it was still early, so not many people came, sitting in twos and threes, the DJ on the stage was playing European and American sad songs, melodious, they sat on the red booth in the corner, not too noisy It's not quiet, but it's also suitable for chatting.

Ling Ziqi seemed to be a regular customer here, so he stretched out his hand to call the waiter over, and the other party naturally said, "Mr. Ling, or whiskey?" He nodded, then turned around and asked Jing Yan, "What would you like to drink?"

Seeing Jing Yan shook his head, he raised his eyes and said, "Two glasses first."

Before he was hot enough to sit down, Jing Yan asked him straightforwardly: "What do you want to talk to me about?" He leaned forward, clasped his hands on his knees, and looked directly at him with his face slightly sideways.

Ling Ziqi did not evade, he even admired his calm and introverted personality, after a while, he said slowly: "Strictly speaking, you are my rival in love, you appeared four years earlier than me, it is Xiaoyao But it was me who accompanied Xiaomu through her six most difficult years, Xiaoyao grew up, her career was frustrated, her health was not good, I was by her side..."

"You...you don't have to use it to provoke me, just say what you have to say." Jing Yan narrowed his sharp eyes and said coldly.

"Then I won't beat around the bush. Although we have different positions, our goal is the same. We all want Xiaomu to be better. But you have to admit that I know what she is like better than you, or even her. People." Ling Ziqi paused, and when the bartender brought the wine, he took a long sip and let out a breath before continuing, "If you keep refusing to agree to the divorce, it will only hurt both sides if you continue like this. She can't eat for almost a week. .”

Jing Yan interrupted him with a chill: "Do you think I will give you the opportunity?"

Ling Ziqi didn't care, and said softly, "Even if I had a chance, it wasn't you who let me, but Xiaomu who gave it to me. But in fact, she rejected me just now." Regardless of whether he drank or not, Ling Ziqi He politely clinked glasses with him, and then drank it down. Under the dark light, his red face became more handsome and clear, "I'm jealous of you, you don't need to do anything, you can easily get her wholehearted love, and I can't do it any better. No, she only considers me a friend, but you don't cherish it." He snorted coldly, with a tone of disapproval.

He is jealous of him?Jing Yan was silent, but he was actually jealous of the silent understanding between him and Xiao Mu.

"Her health is not good, and if you continue to infuse nutrient solution like this, it will only get worse. Then you..." Ling Ziqi raised his eyes, "Should I do something for her? According to Xiaomu's personality, she decided If you force her like this, it will only make her farther and farther away, instead of fleeing to a place you don't know, it's better to let it go."

At that moment, Jing Yan seemed to understand what he wanted to express, but his expression was still watertight, and he just said lightly: "If letting go is so easy, you wouldn't be sitting here and talking to me now." Presumably Everyone could see that his feelings for Xiao Mu were so deep that it was hard to let go.

"Yeah, even I don't know what I'm doing." Ling Ziqi murmured sadly, as if drunk, "But I know, what's best for Xiaomu, would you listen to me?"

He raised his eyes suddenly, with a somewhat unpredictable expression: "I would like to hear the details."

Ling Ziqi had a half-smile, leaned close to him and said something.

Jing Yan frowned.

Ling Ziqi looked at him and laughed: "Why? The dignified CEO of the Jing family, a myth in the financial world, doesn't even have such courage and ability? Then what qualifications do you have to say you love her?"

Under the dim light of the bar, Jing Yan's eyes as deep as obsidian were frighteningly bright.

No one knows what pact they made.

Early the next morning, Ling Ziqi received a call from Jing Yan as soon as he woke up.

Jing Yan said, "You want to ask you to do something for me."

After hearing this, he lay on his back looking at the sea-blue ceiling, and sighed helplessly after a while: "Okay, I promise you."

Su Xiaomu, you said that I deserve better, but the best person is not you, and there is only so much I can do for you. I really hope that you can live happily ever after.
