Chapter 135 Absurd

When Jiang Mu pushed open the door of the box and saw that only Fu Zheng was inside, he guessed something.

He closed the door, stopped in front of the coffee table, glanced at the empty wine bottle, and asked, "Did you have a fight with Wen Liang?"

Fu Zheng was silent. He staggered and filled the wine glass in front of him and drank it in one gulp.

Seeing that he still wanted to pour the wine, Jiang Mu quickly took the bottle away.

Fu Zheng was a little slow to react. He looked at Jiang Mu belatedly and held out his hand: "Give me the wine!"

"You called me here just to let me watch you drink? I'm not interested. If you continue drinking, I'll leave now."

Fu Zheng's whole body froze, and his hand that was stretched in the air suddenly lost its strength, hitting his knee with a "bang". He leaned weakly on the sofa as if all his bones were pulled out.

He half-closed his eyes, making it impossible to see the expression in them, and the dark circles under his eyelashes showed how haggard he had looked recently.

"She wants to divorce me." Fu Zheng said it without any reason, but Jiang Mu understood it.

He put the bottle aside and sat down opposite Fu Zheng. Without a trace of surprise on his face, he sighed and said, "As expected."

Fu Zheng suddenly raised his eyes.

"The last time we got together, when you asked Changkong to apologize to Wenliang, only you and Changkong were immersed in the role. At that time, Wenliang's eyes were calm and indifferent."

Fu Zheng was stunned, closed his eyes, and tried hard to recall Wen Liang's performance at that time.

But he couldn't remember it at all.

"You often say that Wen Liang is sensible. With her personality, it's easy for her to obey others and compromise herself. But once she makes up her mind to resist, it means she is completely disappointed and it's difficult for her to change her mind."

Fu Zheng was silent for a long time, then he opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Mu, "Why didn't you remind me earlier?"

Jiang Mu smiled. "I reminded you a long time ago not to be soft-hearted towards women other than your wife, Fu Zheng. Others may not understand you, but I do. The way you looked at Wen Liang at that time already held a deep meaning."

Fu Zheng's eyes were blurry, as if he was recalling something.

It turns out that he has started to like Wen Liang so early?

Maybe.

So after he filed for divorce with Wen Liang, he still said that he and Wen Liang were still brother and sister.

Oh.

Thinking about it now, it was really ridiculous. How could a couple still be siblings after divorce?

It’s just that he subconsciously doesn’t want to leave Wen Liang.

So after Wen Liang readily agreed to the divorce, he felt unhappy.

So when Wen Liang wanted to quit her job and go abroad with Zhou Yu, he strongly opposed it and racked his brains to persuade Wen Liang to come back, as if he was really considering his sister as an older brother.

In fact, it was just his selfish motives.

So when they went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to divorce, he knew that the documents were left on the table in the ward, but he did not remind them and tried his best to delay time.

So after he filed for divorce, it was obviously as simple as going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce certificate, but it took so long and the divorce was not successful.

In fact, he subconsciously doesn't want to get divorced at all.

So when Chu Siyi made several sexual suggestions, he pretended to be blind and indifferent, and even made excuses in his heart, fearing that his child would be an illegitimate child like him.

In fact, he subconsciously left room for himself and Wen Liang. If he really took that step, there would be no turning back.

Looking back now, his twisted and contradictory behavior finally has an answer.

But why did he discover it just now?

"Those involved are often confused, but those who are on the sidelines can see things more clearly. When you were in a relationship with Chu Siyi, it was she who pursued you, and it was more of her who accommodated you. You gave me the feeling that this relationship was dispensable. I didn't expect Chu Siyi to come back, and I didn't expect you to be involved with her after she came back. I thought you would understand that you are the only one who owes Chu Siyi. Wen Liang doesn't owe Chu Siyi anything. You shouldn't let Wen Liang make up for Chu Siyi, nor should you let Wen Liang repay with you."

Listening to Jiang Mu's words, Fu Zheng was in a trance for a while, and smiled foolishly, "You said such a simple truth. Why did I just understand it?"

He thought of the time when he and Wen Liang were in bed, and he received a call from Chu Siyi's agent saying that Chu Siyi was missing, and he insisted on leaving.

Wen Liang tried to persuade him to stay, but he still left.

He was furious at the time and said she had no empathy.

Thinking about it now, how hurtful this sentence must be.

Why would Wen Liang sympathize with someone who destroyed her marriage?

If someone told him now that Zhou Yu was missing, he would just applaud.

"Actually, even if you owe Chu Siyi something, you shouldn't be too indulgent. After that incident, everyone blamed you, but they all forgot that you and Chu Siyi are two adults, and you are not Chu Siyi's guardian. She ran out of school late at night, which is her problem. She was kidnapped because of the kidnappers' evil and greed, and it has nothing to do with you. Calling the police at the time was the best option. Otherwise, if you were alone, not only would you not be able to save her, you might even get yourself into trouble. I know you feel bad, so you are trying to make amends to Chu Siyi."

"But making amends isn't unconditional. If she asks you to commit a crime, will you listen? Promises aren't unlimited. After you and Wen Liang have a child, if she returns to China and wants to be with you, will you agree to her?"

"As I said before, Chu Siyi is an adult. When she chose to go abroad, she voluntarily gave up her promise to you. She must be responsible for her actions. Just like you can usually give in to Fu Yue, but the position of President of Fu Group was given to you by the old man because he saw your ability. He is not as good as you, so you don't have to feel that you have taken his things. Even if you were not there, there is still your second uncle and your cousin, and the position of President of Fu Group may not be his."

"That's all I have to say. Don't go against your own will. Think clearly about what you really want. I think you should be able to make the right choice."

Fu Zheng closed his eyes and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Among those who knew about Chu Siyi's matter, apart from grandma, Jiang Mu was the only one who said that it had nothing to do with him.

He still remembered the counselor saying, "She ran away, why didn't you chase her? How can you be her boyfriend? If you had chased her, maybe this wouldn't have happened. You're such a man with no sense of responsibility! It's a pity for such a good girl like Chu Siyi..."

The old policeman said, "She's a girl, and you're a boy. A man should be more open-minded. If you hadn't argued with her, maybe nothing would have happened."

Fu Yue said, "I know you want to find the person who leaked the data and make up for the losses as soon as possible, but without any evidence, you can't just accuse your girlfriend. What's more, the kidnapper was targeting you... If something like this happens to a girl, it will probably leave a lifelong psychological trauma. You have to be responsible for her in the future..."

Just as he was beginning to understand things, someone would mention it to him, intentionally or unintentionally: "Is this the child Fu Rong brought back from outside? I heard that he and his wife had a quarrel over him when he died!"

"That's him! If they didn't have this child, the couple wouldn't have died so young."

"Who says it's not? Miaoran is such a good kid, beautiful and always smiling. She must have a good relationship with Fu Rong..."

Miaoran is the name of Fu Rong's wife.

"If you ask me, the most pitiful one is Fu Yue. Not only did he get a younger brother who was fighting for the family inheritance for no reason, but he also lost his parents at such a young age..."

Those sighs and lamentations were deeply engraved in the heart of young Fu Zheng.

But no one ever thought that Fu Zheng was younger than Fu Yue and had lost his parents long ago.

Probably because he was an illegitimate child.

His existence was wrong from the beginning.
