Chapter 261: Heartbroken
"I will deal with the Du family's affairs as soon as possible, and then I will pick you up."
Lu Youyou could still hear a hint of grievance in the calm tone.
She couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth. She held Gu Qingye's face and gently stroked his chin.
Having stayed in the hospital all night last night, he didn't have time to tidy himself up this morning. A light stubble appeared on his chin, which was not prickly but rather pleasant to touch.
Gu Qingye rubbed her palm with this action.
"like?"
"Hmm~"
Lu Youyou lay on his chest, touching it again and again: "Guess where my dad is going later?"
"Gu family."
Lu Youyou smiled, great minds think alike!
She poked the flesh on Gu Qingye's cheek and teased him.
"Comrade Xiao Gu, if you treat me badly in the future, I will close the door and release my father. I just want to ask you if you are afraid?"
Gu Qingye grabbed her hand, pulled it to his lips and kissed it: "Don't be afraid, I won't treat you badly, never."
Lu Youyou didn't know how tough her father was at this time.
Lu Zhiyu rarely comes out, and knowing that his daughter has been wronged, he will naturally not let it go.
Educating Gu Qingye was just a side job; settling accounts with Gu Bohuai was the top priority.
After all, Du Shuang is Gu Bohuai's wife. It would be better to force Gu Bohuai to choose sides than to expect the younger generation to do it.
He went straight to the Gu family. No matter that Gu Bohuai was a general, he would still scold him.
Gu Bohuai knew that he was in the wrong, but he did not argue and promised to resolve the issue properly.
Being nice to Lu Youyou and Gu Qingye was naturally very unfriendly to Du Shuang, which could even be said to be a bolt from the blue.
"What did you say, divorce?!"
As soon as Du Shuang entered the house, she was shocked by a sudden statement.
No matter how frightened and scared she was, she never thought that Gu Bohuai would directly file for divorce.
The sudden tinnitus in her ears gave her a glimmer of hope.
"Bo Huai, what did you just say? Did I hear it wrong?"
She rushed in front of Gu Bohuai and grabbed his sleeve tightly, trying to find the slightest sign of a joke on his face.
When she was young, she liked his elegance and calmness the most, but now, looking at this face as calm as the deep sea, she felt a chill to her bones.
"We've been married for more than 20 years, and I've given birth to your children, and you're telling me you want a divorce? Gu Bohuai, do you still have a conscience?!"
At this moment, Du Shuang didn't remember anything she had done. There was only one thing in her mind and eyes: everything she had been seeking for her whole life had vanished into nothing!
When she was young, she fell in love with Gu Bohuai at first sight. She tried every means to marry him and thought she had a clear conscience all these years. But why did everything change when Gu Qingye appeared?
Gu Bohuai watched coldly, he knew that Du Shuang was becoming more and more unreasonable, but how could someone who made mistakes again and again dare to question his conscience.
"I gave you a chance, but you didn't want it."
There was no disappointment in Gu Bohuai's eyes. Ever since he knew the truth, he no longer had any expectations of Du Shuang.
"You still have the nerve to mention the child? When you were doing evil things, did you ever think about Hongying and Yuanzheng?"
Du Shuang's voice cracked with excitement: "Why didn't I think about it? You are about to empty the Gu family and give it away. How dare you say to me that it is you who forgot our child and you are sorry for Yuan Zheng!"
Faced with her unreasonable demands, Gu Bohuai didn't want to say anything more. People who are obsessed with something don't think they have done anything wrong.
"Hongying and Yuanzheng are already adults, so there is no need to worry about custody. I have prepared everything that should be given to them, and I will always be their father. I leave this passbook to you as compensation."
Du Shuang's tears poured down like heavy rain, but she suddenly laughed out loud. She didn't even look at the passbook, but just stared into Gu Bohuai's eyes.
"Should I thank you for your thoughtful consideration? Is this what you have to say to the three of us? Are you doing us justice?"
Gu Bohuai stood up and walked out: "Go and handle the formalities tomorrow. I'll send someone to pick you up in the morning."
Such a ruthless move shattered Du Shuang's rationality. She picked up the things on the table and threw them at Gu Bohuai.
Tea cups and vases were scattered all over the floor, but Gu Bohuai stood still like a mountain, his trouser legs soaked.
He turned around, and there was nothing but hysterical madness in Du Shuang's eyes, not a trace of remorse.
Maybe, but that's just regretting why it wasn't done more secretly.
"Du Shuang, do you really think that you can keep those things a secret forever? You haven't forgotten what you did, what your father and your brother did, have you?"
Du Shuang's pupils trembled violently, and the last bit of hope in her heart was shattered.
He really knew it!
Oh, is this retribution?
Just because she pursued free love, that woman didn't let her go after more than 20 years?
But Song Jinshu died of childbirth complications, she is not the murderer!
"Oh, ha ha ha ha...it's her own bad luck. What right do you have to blame others? It's you who don't remember Song Jinshu. It's you who caused her to be stranded outside. It's you who was wrong. Why do you blame me for everything?!"
Du Shuang kept repeating the last sentence, as if he was in some kind of obsession.
Unexpectedly, Gu Bohuai actually nodded.
"You should blame me. I didn't see your true colors. I shouldn't have believed what the Du family said. I caused my wife and children to be separated. So now I want to correct my mistakes."
Gu Bohuai took a few steps forward and walked in front of Du Shuang: "I'm not discussing this with you. I'm just here to inform you that we're getting divorced tomorrow."
Du Shuang hysterically threw everything in front of her to the ground, but still couldn't make Gu Bohuai look back.
She seemed to realize at this moment that this man would never look back, and she staggered out to chase him.
"Bohuai, Bohuai, come back... Gu Bohuai!"
The most mournful cries echoed in the empty house.
It's over. It's all over.
the next day
After a night of fun outside, Gu Yuanzheng returned home humming a little tune. When he opened the door, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.
The living room was in a mess, like the epicenter of an earthquake. Du Shuang sat in the ruins like a lost soul, her face covered with traces of dried tears.
"Mom?" Gu Yuanzheng called out tremblingly.
Du Shuang's eyes were empty, as if she didn't hear anything.
"Mom, our house was robbed? Mom, mom?"
Gu Yuanzheng tiptoed, carefully avoiding the broken porcelain and glass on the ground, and gently pushed Du Shuang.
"Speak up, what happened? Have you informed my dad?"
He asked for a long time but got no response, and began to get anxious. He picked up the phone and was about to call Gu Bohuai.
“Don’t hit me…”
Gu Yuanzheng was startled by the voice that was rougher than sand. He quickly walked around to Du Shuang and said, "Mom, what's wrong? Don't scare me!"
Du Shuang seemed to have finally regained her soul. She grabbed her son's hand and dug her nails into it deeply.
"Ah, let go, it hurts, it hurts!!!" Gu Yuanzheng screamed in pain.
"Call your sister and ask her to come back immediately. Hurry up, hurry up!"
Du Shuang roared the last few words, and her hoarse voice sounded like a ghost demanding revenge.
