The world is a bitter sea, and people struggle within it.
Is genuine sincerity always belittled? Are kindness and gentleness always bullied? Are ugly commoners always mocked? Is unparalleled ...
Chapter 265: The CEO's Moonlight (19)
Qu Xiangran arranged a new apartment for Shi Yi to move into, and immediately sent someone to her previous residence to pack up her personal belongings and deliver them. He went straight home to visit his mother. As soon as he stepped into the door, he heard a familiar voice.
"Where did you go last night?" Qu's mother put down the coffee in her hand and leaned back on the sofa behind her. She had a unique indifferent temperament.
She had been waiting here since she woke up last night, just to see when her good son would come back.
"Mother, you look much more energetic today." Qu Xiangran walked straight towards her.
"You haven't answered my question yet." Qu's mother stared into his eyes.
In front of her was her only son, and the person she would rely on for the rest of her life. She didn't want him to be dishonest about such things.
"I went to Le Shi's house and happened to meet the thief. I stayed with her all night." Qu Xiangran sat next to his mother and held her hand. Although she broke free, he held it firmly again. Even if his mother was wrong in the way she handled some things, she was still his mother, the one who gave birth to him. No matter what, he couldn't abandon her.
"Is he a real thief or a fake one?" The sarcasm in Qu's mother's tone made Qu Xiangran feel obviously uncomfortable.
He frowned and said, "It's a real thief."
"So you left your mother at home for the whole night for someone else?" Qu's mother looked at him sideways, her eyes full of anger, "Do you really have me as your mother in your heart, huh? I encountered such a big thing, and you actually abandoned me for someone else."
"Mother," Qu Xiangran clenched her palm and said solemnly: "Mother, you are my relative. Le Shiyi is not someone else, she is my future wife."
"You are actually refutating me for someone else now?" Qu's mother pulled back her hand forcefully and looked at her son coldly.
She felt a kind of anger rising from the bottom of her heart, and then spread to her internal organs. At the same time, sadness also arose from the bottom of her heart, covering these anger.
Her husband has long been someone she can no longer rely on. Is her only son going to leave her now? !
"Mother, no matter what you think, my marriage to Shi Yi is a done deal. You are my only mother, and it is a fait accompli. You are both people I care about, and I don't want to see you misunderstanding or criticizing each other, nor do I expect you to love each other, I just ask you to respect each other." Qu Xiangran stood up from the sofa and talked to his mother across the distance.
The relationship between their mothers has always been distant, and they rarely even had the opportunity to quarrel, so he had no chance to make his words clear before. Now that he has spoken his mind, he is not afraid of his mother blaming him or complaining about him.
"Qu Xiangran, I worked so hard to give birth to you and raise you, and this is how you repay me?" Qu's mother's eyes were filled with tears, and she accused: "Why do you think I misunderstood Le Shiyi, and that I was attacking her? Isn't it because she said bad things about me in front of you?"
"Mother, Le Shiyi has never said anything bad about you in front of me. Her upbringing doesn't allow her to do such a thing." Qu Xiangran took a tissue from the coffee table and gently wiped his mother's face, "You really misunderstood her on this point."
"If it weren't for her, you wouldn't have abandoned me at all." Qu's mother grabbed a tissue and wiped her face randomly, then threw the paper ball at him like a child in a rage, "You just forgot your mother now that you have a wife."
Qu Xiangran laughed at her words, and pulled another tissue and handed it over, "Mother, since you have acknowledged that Shiyi is your daughter-in-law, why bother with her?"
Although his mother gave birth to him, it was impossible for him to be confined to this house and spend the rest of his life with his mother. He has his own life. He is not a puppet and will not let anyone manipulate his life.
"It's rare to see you two so happy." Qu Weilai's voice came from behind, and they just realized his presence.
"Why did you come back?" Qu's mother felt a little guilty when she saw him.
Qu Xiangran stood beside his mother and looked at his father.
Ji Ran lost her child because of her mother. He didn't know whether his father was looking forward to the child in Ji Ran's belly, but his father, who liked Ji Ran, would definitely blame his mother for this.
"Divorce." Qu Weilai's voice was cold and his emotions were indifferent, making it impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry. However, the dark circles under his eyes revealed the fact that he didn't sleep well.
He glanced at his son indifferently and said to himself, "Is he such an unreasonable person? Just because Ji Ran lost his child, Yu Zhen must pay it back? The root of all things lies with him, and he knows it very well, so now he is here to solve all the problems.
"Didn't you give it to Lawyer Bei to take charge?" Qu's mother moved her eyes to the opposite direction of Qu Weilai. She was afraid to look at him, afraid to see the blame and dissatisfaction in his eyes. Although she has endured these blames and dissatisfaction for many years.
"The law stipulates that a couple can appeal for divorce after being separated for two years. You and I fully meet the requirements." Qu Weilai paused, "I just want my share of the Qu family's shares, funds, bonds and other real estate."
"Qu Weilai, you're dreaming." Qu's mother stood up angrily, pointed her finger at him and said, "You cheated on me and still want a share of the property. I won't give you a penny."
"Yu Zhen, I don't want this money, and I don't need it. This money is compensation for Ji Ran." Qu Weilai sat down on the sofa opposite with a dejected look, his hands buried in his hair, and his aging appearance was evident.
"Dream on." Qu's mother started to cry, still pointing at him, "Why did she get all this? I'm the mistress of this family, why did she get this? Just because of the child she miscarried?"
"Yuzhen, she will never have children again." After Qu Weilai said this fact that he tried hard to hide, the gloom between his brows deepened, "I took the initiative to find out about the situation with her attending doctor, and her attending doctor told me."
"She deserves that she can never have children again." Qu's mother was still pretending to be tough, but the other hand hidden under her pajamas kept shaking, revealing her true mood.
"Take this money as atonement for both of us. Please." Qu Weilai covered his face with one hand, tears leaking from his fingers. Qu's mother also leaned on the armrest of the sofa and cried.
This was the first time Qu Xiangran saw pleading in his father's eyes. He thought that he should also go meet the woman named Ji Ran.
