sleepless tonight

Chapter 7 Don't mess around
"It's true that I'm not as capable as you. It's been less than half a year since I divorced, and I have a special car to pick me up when I travel." I glanced at Volvo who was following me.

"Don't talk with guns and sticks. That's my colleague. I went to discuss business with him." Tong Wangjun said.

"That's right, isn't the husband and wife slowly developed from colleagues?" I said.

"I'm too lazy to tell you, do you take the car? If you don't want to go back by yourself, then you can go back alone. Give me Xiaole, and I will send Xiaole back first." Tong Wangjun said to me, "It's so cold God, do you want Xiao Le to blow the wind with you?"

I glanced at the Volvo, it would indeed be much warmer in the car.

At this time, Tong Wangjun's colleague also got out of the car very considerately, opened the door on one side, and waited beside him very gentlemanly.

Xiao Le in her arms stretched out her hands, also wanting to go into Tong Wangjun's arms.

I suddenly had an illusion that I seemed to be an outsider, and the three of them were a family.

Talented and beautiful, urban white-collar workers, and a child, how harmonious?
"Okay, you can send Xiao Le back first." I gave Xiao Le in my arms to Tong Wangjun.

"Give me the milk powder in your hand too, I'll put it in the car." Tong Wangjun said to me.

"No, you guys go first, I'll carry it myself." I shook my head.

The daughter-in-law is gone, and Xiao Le is also in Tong Wangjun's arms. If I don't carry something in my hand, I'm afraid my heart will be empty.

Tong Wangjun got into the car, and the Volvo drove past me, walking on the road, watching the cars coming and going, I didn't feel lively, but felt a sudden sense of loneliness.

Passing by the bus station, I didn't get on the bus, but continued walking along the concrete road.

There are no specific thoughts in my head, I just want to walk, so I don't have to think too much.

The sky was a bit gloomy, the leaves on the landscape trees by the road were rustling, and occasionally a few fallen leaves flew down, and all the lights on the road suddenly turned on.

A little coolness fell on my face.

I looked up, and in the twilight, the drizzle like hemp was flying in the lights, densely packed.

When I got home, I saw a Volvo parked downstairs and an Audi A6.

All of a sudden, I don't want to go up.

"Dad, are you back?" A Ke came out of the stairs, holding two red bills in her hand, and saw me, "Mom is here, she asked me to buy some food from the supermarket, and said she would make delicious food for me .”

"Well, I'll go with you." I was a little worried, so I followed Chen Ke to the supermarket outside the community.

After buying some vegetables, I went out of the supermarket, thinking that there seemed to be no rice at home, so I went back to the supermarket, picked out a bag of rice, and carried it upstairs.

"Father, let me carry it for you." Chen Ke reached out to take the plastic bag containing the vegetables from me.

"No, Dad can lift it, you go ahead, don't run, be careful of falling." I said.

When I got into the elevator, I happened to see the woman next door to my rented room come out.

"After dinner, I will borrow your rice and return it to you together with the bowl." I told her.

The woman glanced back at me, said nothing, and left in a hurry.

When I went upstairs and entered the house, I opened the door and immediately put down the 25 kg rice bag. Even though I took the elevator, I was still very tired. I had never done such heavy work before.

Looking around, I went into the kitchen.

"Where's your colleague? I saw his car was parked under there. Why can't you see him?" I asked.

"I let him go back first." Tong Wangjun took the dish in my hand, rolled up his cuffs, and started to get busy.

"The relationship between you two is really good. He went back by himself and left the car for you to drive. You two won't live together, right?" I said a little playfully.

Although I didn't have any impression of Tong Wangjun when I woke up, she was my nominal wife after all. Even though we were divorced, such a beautiful woman was so close to other men, I still didn't feel very happy in my heart.

"Of course, he is much better than you. He is not only motivated, but also a gentleman." Tong Wangjun quickly scaled the fish, then dissected the fish, and washed it clean. , bought a house in the Country Garden Community in the city center, and he also bought the car himself."

"Really? From the looks of it, he seems to be chasing you. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so considerate. He drove you to the supermarket and then drove you home. He even left the car for you," I said.

"We are already divorced. I don't need to tell you whether he chases me or not?" Tong Wangjun handed the fish in his hand to me, "Go and put some salt to marinate it."

I sprinkled some salt on the fish, turned it over and rubbed some more.

"Indeed, you don't need to tell me, the key to having such a man who is excellent in every aspect chasing you is that you bought a house in Country Garden, so you don't have to squeeze in a rented room with me, it will be much more comfortable." I was silent for a while , and then said, "Congratulations, you are not too young, if you meet the right person, get married as soon as possible."

"By the way, when you get married, let me know. If I have time, I will go there."

Tong Wangjun was cutting vegetables, suddenly stopped, turned his head and glanced at me, and walked to me with a kitchen knife.

"What are you doing?" I said in shock, "Don't mess around."

"You also think my colleague is good?" Tong Wangjun had a smile in his eyes, but I was terrified.

"Country Garden, this is a well-known group all over the country. It is of course not bad to be able to buy a house in Country Garden and have a small car worth 30 to [-] yuan, and it is so considerate." I said, "You are already old and divorced. If no one dislikes it, hurry up and get married."

"Okay, since you also think he is good, I will send you an invitation when I get married." Tong Wangjun said, and then pushed me, "Get out of the way."

Tong Wangjun took the fish and scratched it a few times.

I turned to the sink and helped wash the vegetables.

After that, Tong Wangjun didn't say a word to me until the dishes were ready.

Tong Wangjun prepared four dishes and the rice was cooked.

"What are you doing?" I saw Tong Wangjun packing up the bag on the chair and asked, "You don't want to eat anymore?"

"Don't eat." Tong Wangjun said coldly, without even looking at me.

"The meal is ready, let's go after eating." I said, "Anyway, there is a car, so there is no need to be in such a hurry."

"Mom, stay and have dinner together." Chen Ke followed suit, "Our family hasn't eaten together for a long time."

"No, mom has something else to do. I have an appointment. You can eat." Tong Wangjun turned around and said to Chen Ke, "Mom is leaving first, and I will see you and Xiaole next time."

Tong Wangjun went out, I stood up and chased him out.

"What are you doing here?" Tong Wangjun stood at the stairs, turned around and said to me.

"I don't eat the meal when it's ready, and I'm in such a hurry to leave, who did I make an appointment with?" I asked.

"We're already divorced. It doesn't matter to you who I marry, let alone a date?" Tong Wangjun glanced at me, "You'd better take care of yourself."

Tong Wangjun stood in front of me, I stared at her for a long time, and wanted to say something, but I moved my lips several times, but didn't say anything.

"Do you have something to tell me?" Tong Wangjun said to me, "Say it, I'll listen."

"Hehe." I laughed twice, "It's nothing, I just want to ask, what's the name of your colleague? When you make red envelopes in the future, you can also write your two names on it, and add the words "to grow old together" , are you right?"

I don't know if I read it wrong, but a trace of disappointment flashed across Tong Wangjun's face.

"Xu Heng, his name is Xu Heng." Tong Wangjun said, "Are you all right?"

"Wait a minute." I stopped her, and took out two red bills from my pocket, "This is the money you asked A Ke to buy vegetables just now, I will return it to you."

Tong Wangjun frowned: "What do you mean? Do you want to divide it so clearly with me? You even have to give me the money to buy vegetables."

"We are already divorced, it's better to make a clear distinction, so as not to be misunderstood." I said softly, and handed the money to Tong Wangjun, "Take it."

"Okay, do you want to tell the difference?" Tong Wangjun stared at me with red eyes, "I also rented this house with money. If you want to tell the difference, then you go out and live in the house I rented."
