On the 32nd floor, next to the private acting room, a rich woman was squatting by the door with a large group of people, their ears pressed against the wall and the door.
"Shishi, what are you listening to? There are guests in this room, you can't disturb them."
"Shh, someone's crying, wailing, it's a man, he's been abandoned."
Xie Lin's face darkened. "How did you know?"
"Just now, a woman ran out, all smiles, talking to herself, 'I'm finally free, I can go find true love now, the father of my child, I'm coming!'"
What a similar plot! Didn't we just see that happen?
However, in the drama, he plays a lover, and this man is quite assertive.
The door opened the next second. "No, wife, don't go. How can I live without you?"
Well, the slap in the face didn't even take a second longer; it was even more timely than karma.
Snap~
His way out was cut off by the gossip group. The man fell to the ground. In order not to crush the two little ones who rolled in when the door was opened, he turned around in a hurry. Unfortunately, he landed face down and hit his forehead.
Xie Lin quickly helped the person up.
"I'm so sorry, the children didn't mean it. They were playing and got curious when they heard the noise, so..."
"Okay, I'll take you to see a doctor for your injuries, and I'll cover all the expenses. I'll also waive your accommodation fees. Please forgive them."
Da Liu and Xiao Liu were a little scared. Aunt Gua had said that the customer is God, and they had hurt God.
"We're sorry, we were wrong." The two little ones bent over, not daring to stand up until they heard forgiveness.
The man touched his forehead; it hurt a little, but the skin wasn't broken, so it wasn't serious.
Looking at the passageway where that beautiful figure was no longer present, he looked dejected.
"It's okay, get up. I'm fine, no need to check my injuries."
He slowly withdrew his gaze, his eyes unfocused, like a walking corpse, and spoke weakly.
"Children are adorable, and being playful is in their nature. Don't scold them."
The older child stood up, chuckled dryly, and said, "I won't scold you, I'll waive the room fee. What do you want to eat? I'll bring it to you."
“If you don’t mind, would you like to tell us your story? My schedule is set for the afternoon, and I’m only free now.”
The man slowly turned his head, wondering if he was hallucinating.
"My story?"
"Yes, your story of being abandoned is very similar to ours. Do you want to see it?"
ha?
A notebook was shoved into his hand, forcing him to concentrate.
From the wife filing for divorce and revealing the truth that she was pregnant with another man's child, to her leaving him to find true love, the story is largely the same, except for some minor differences.
Oh, it's the same if he refuses to let her go, except he doesn't have the guts to be a secret lover, and his wife wouldn't choose him to be her lover like the rich woman in the story.
Moreover, he and his wife had already obtained a divorce certificate, so this part of the story was not part of the plot.
But they're pretty much the same.
His hands trembled slightly. "Is...is this true?"
Shishi shook her head. "No, this is just Gu's wild imagination. I didn't expect your story to be so coincidental. Would you like to tell me?"
The man fell silent, looking at the dozen or so eager little gossips, and a pair of beautiful eyes even brighter than the children's, and silently invited them into the house.
When I got back to my seat, I found three chickens on the sofa, all with glowing green eyes, and a robot with heart-shaped eyes.
Man: ...I feel like I've been tricked.
Xie Lin shook his head and went to instruct the waiter to bring a fruit platter.
The man's name was Xiao Xu. His father was the director of a state-owned auto machinery factory, and his family had some money.
Lan Jin is his wife; they have been married for three years and have a very good relationship.
Lan Jin didn't want children before because she wanted to enjoy life as a couple.
A few days ago, she found out she was pregnant, and the Xiao family celebrated. Little did they know that the next day, Lan Jin forced him to go through the divorce proceedings without telling his family.
Her reason was that people despise women who remarry, and she wanted to show the world that even in her second marriage, she was still cherished by her husband's family.
Fearing she might overthink things, she added a condition: when they remarry, he should give her a dowry, buy her gifts, and accompany her to a prenatal checkup every month, just like he did for their first marriage.
She had all the traditional wedding rituals of "three turns and one sound" (referring to a set of three watches, one watch, and a watch with 36 legs) at her wedding. She said this time it doesn't need to be so complicated; a small dowry will suffice as a token, and the gift will be a celebration of her proving that a woman's second marriage is also a treasure.
He didn't want her to risk her reputation and didn't approve of her playing around like that, but eventually he agreed after she kept pestering him.
Because he really loves her.
They had been in love with each other since their student days and agreed to get married when they came of age.
She didn't want to get married too early, so he complied, finding her a job, being there for her when she was happy, and being there for her when she cried.
She didn't want to make their relationship public, so he quietly stayed by her side until she was 22 and her family couldn't wait any longer, so they got married.
They had a good relationship after marriage, and he was willing to spoil her in everything as long as it wasn't illegal or against the law.
Just like this time.
However, he had a condition: they had to remarry the day after they got the divorce certificate.
She agreed, and so they divorced.
But when he happily presented her with the same dowry as his first wedding, she refused it.
The reason is that she is going to marry the person she loves.
This is a bolt from the blue.
He immediately questioned her about who her beloved was, and she didn't hide it from her.
He recognized that man; he was the guy who sold watches at a stall outside the factory. He was dressed very fashionably, in a floral shirt and flared jeans, and he could talk a dead man back to life.
Ever since Lan Jin bought a watch from him, she has frequently visited his stall, buying one watch after another even though he already had watches available.
Okay, her family has a lot of members, and the Xiao family isn't short of money. Besides, no tickets are needed, so let's just buy it.
