She went to the hospital to see her ex-boyfriend who had a broken leg, only to find that his attending physician was the husband she had just gotten a marriage certificate with that morning!
...
"So, are you going on Sunday?"
"Of course I will," Zhou Mo said without hesitation. "If I'm not here, how can you complete the task if you can't even say ten words to someone in three hours?"
Han Chen laughed, "Dress up nicely, I'm afraid of being embarrassed."
Zhou Mo raised his neck and said, "I'm naturally beautiful, okay? Don't I look good now? Huh?"
When his eyes met Han Chen, Han Chen turned his face away unnaturally and said "hmm" softly.
Zhou Mo thought he would retort, but unexpectedly Han Chen actually admitted it. A hot red flush flowed up his neck, dyeing half of Zhou Mo's face crimson.
"I'll take you back."
"good."
…
Thursday.
Zhou Mo was in Shen Qingyi's office, listening to her work assignments.
After Shen Qingyi finished talking about the business, he asked, "Did you know that Liu Kai's father's surgery is scheduled for tomorrow?"
"I know," Zhou Mo nodded. Han Chen sent her the surgery schedule early in the morning.
"Please pay more attention to his situation. I've already contacted Director Gu. Let him get treated first, and the subsequent expenses can be paid slowly."
"Okay, I'll communicate with him more."
"You are all students, so it's easy for you to communicate. I'm a teacher, so he won't want to talk to me if he has any problems, but I will help him wherever I can."
Zhou Mo expressed his gratitude on behalf of Liu Kai and Shen Qingyi.
Come out of her office.
Zhou Mo sent a message to Liu Kai, asking him if everything was going well.
After a while, Liu Kai sent a message: The pre-operative deposit must be paid today.
Zhou Mo: How much?
Liu Kai: Forty thousand.
Zhou Mo thought about how she and Zhao Xiaoshuang had pooled eight thousand last time, and they still had over thirty thousand left...
Just when he was worried, Liu Kai said: Doctor Han said he would help me.
Zhou Mo was surprised: He wants to pay for you?
Liu Kai: Yes, he has already paid for me.
Zhou Mo was shocked and called Han Chen. Although she didn't expect Han Chen to answer the call at this time, Han Chen still answered.
"What's wrong?" Han Chen asked calmly.
"Are you giving Liu Kai money again?" Zhou Mo asked.
"Well, what's wrong?"
"Where did you get the money?"
Han Chen was stunned for a moment and was speechless.
Zhou Mo was furious: "I have your salary card and the money you borrowed from Liang Dongyan. Are you paying Liu Kai? Where did the money come from? Did you borrow money from someone again?"
"No," Han Chen felt awkward unconsciously, "Another card."
Zhou Mo suddenly realized that she suddenly remembered the day when Han Chen came to her and took out two cards, one salary card and one non-salary income card.
"Han Chen! Are you kidding me?" Zhou Mo's tone suddenly became serious.
Han Chen panicked for a moment, "No, I'm not kidding you."
"Give me your salary card if you're not kidding me?" Zhou Mo felt like he'd been cheated. "You did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Han Chen said nothing, and the other end of the phone fell silent.
Zhou Mo turned around and pointed out the suspicious point of the matter, "You gave Yu Yizhou money, why did you give him the salary card? You clearly had other cards, but you insisted on giving him the salary card, and gave it to him in front of me. If you didn't do it on purpose, what did you do?"
Han Chen remained speechless.
Zhou Mo confirmed his inner thoughts through his noncommittal attitude.
"You didn't want to give Yu Yizhou the money at all. You wanted to give me the card, and you found all kinds of excuses to give it to me. This is simply a trick you used to play on me," Zhou Mo bluntly exposed. "The 200,000 yuan from Liang Dongyan was also a lie you made up to trick me, right? You thought I could fall into your trap this way?"
"I don't."
"No?" Zhou Mo bit her lip. "Han Chen, if you want to start over with me, just tell me clearly what you really think. You're making up all kinds of excuses, trying to get involved with me financially, and maintaining a loveless marriage to punish me. I won't accept that."
"I don't mean to punish you." Han Chen's voice was low and rapid.
Zhou Mo didn't believe it, "But you said you would drag me to hell with you."
"I've also said that facing reality means life is not impossible, and you agree with this view."
Zhou Mo was confused for a moment.
She couldn't tell which of Han Chen's words were true and which were false.
Since you can't tell the truth from the false, you might as well ask directly, "Do you want to start over with me?"
Han Chen didn't expect Zhou Mo to ask so directly, and he hit the target with one blow, causing him to bleed profusely in the heart.
He was silent for a moment and then said, "Can the status quo be maintained?"
Zhou Mo's heart sank. "When you say the current situation, do you mean we won't get divorced, and we'll just waste time like this?"
Han Chen was confused. "I don't know, about the same."
Zhou Mo took a deep breath and calmed down a little, "Are you dragging me down with you to hell?"
She sneered self-deprecatingly, "Whatever you say. Anyway, I have no plans to start a new relationship at the moment. Just like you said, I have to face reality. I hope that one day in the future, we can meet someone we like and then forgive each other."
Zhou Mo prayed, but knew in her heart that her day would probably never come again.
She has experienced so many emotions that she has become numb and disappointed.
The more he did something, the more proficient he became, except for love. The more he talked about it, the more he had concerns, and the more Zhou Mo lost his way.
It’s good for Han Chen to be like this. He simply doesn’t want to have a relationship and just focus on himself.
"That's it, goodbye," Zhou Mo raised his hand and prepared to hang up the phone.
"Is that it?" Han Chen suddenly asked.
"If not this, what else do you want?" Zhou Mo's emotions, which had finally calmed down, were instantly ignited. "Do you want me to cry my heart out in front of you? Or do you want me to cry and beg you to love me so that we can start over?"
Han Chen fell silent again.
Zhou Mo was very impatient, "Speak!"
"It's not what you think."
Another ambiguous answer.
"Love is what it is!"
Zhou Mo was about to be driven crazy by him and hung up the phone directly.
I can never express myself clearly, and I can never express my thoughts clearly.
I never say what I want, what I don’t want, what I like, and what I don’t like.
Zhou Mo always thought that Han Chen had changed a lot, but looking back, some things are ingrained in his bones, like marks engraved in his genes, and cannot be changed.
In the past, Zhou Mo was always worried about Han Chen's vague words, and it is still the same now.
Zhou Mo really doesn't like this feeling of worrying about gains and losses.
What she likes is one and what she likes is two, and her love and hate are clearly distinguished.
Zhou Mo’s idea is very simple. Since they are married, if there is love, they should live a good life. If there is no love, they should divorce and let each other go.
What a clear-cut answer.
Han Chen insisted on choosing half of each answer, even though there was no emotion involved.
Zhou Mo couldn't help but doubt his motives.
She didn't want to get hurt in the relationship, so she didn't hesitate to assume the worst about Han Chen.
For everything that happened before, whether it was Han Chen's ambiguous teasing or his deliberate testing, Zhou Mo would rather think that it was Han Chen's deliberate trap, wanting her to fall in love with him again, and then he would withdraw and catch her off guard.
To avenge her for dumping him without any proper reason. ?
