Chapter 130 Let's Get a Divorce
The problem that had been troubling Shen Jingsi all day finally arrived, but he didn't make excuses for himself.
"I'm sorry, I deserve to die."
It wouldn't be fair to say she died; Lu Zhenyu was just a little angry at the time.
Regardless of their past, why pretend to be strangers when they meet?
She glanced at the pale-faced man, then silently clenched her fist on the mahogany cane. She turned to the other side, pinched the wrist under her wristwatch, and placed it on her arm. "Let's go, it's only fair."
She watched the skewers of candied hawthorns behind the door, one after another, and burst into mischievous, aunt-like giggles.
Feng Jinheng, standing to one side with his hands tucked in his pockets, shook his head helplessly, "Not composed at all."
The young couple's bachelor party wasn't affected by that farce; instead, they used it as a topic to reminisce about the past and chatted even more enthusiastically.
It was nothing more than the same things that happened from childhood to adulthood. Although Lu Zhenyu couldn't remember them, she had heard them from Feng Manman long ago.
Feeling the intense heat that had been fixed on him the whole time, Lu Zhenyu occasionally exchanged glances with Shen Jingsi across from her.
She guessed what he was thinking.
Some things will need to be said someday, but not now.
Don't be fooled by Feng Manman's clamor for a drink when she arrives; when the wine is actually brought to her lips, she won't even take a sniff.
As someone about to become a mother, the girl naturally knew she couldn't touch alcohol; she was simply bullying Shen Jinchuan.
On the contrary, after getting Bei Ting drunk more, the usually composed girl in front of others started acting coquettishly with Feng Jinheng in front of outsiders, kissing him and comparing her chest muscles with their husbands.
Lu Zhenyu surprised everyone the most. She used to never drink, but today she drank the most among the girls, and she was still remarkably sober when the party ended.
"Zhenzhen, are you really not staying with me tonight?"
"Sweetie, I'll come with you tomorrow. I have things to do tonight."
As everyone left, only two figures, one large and one small, remained at the bottom of the empty steps.
In Beijing, the nights are much cooler than the days in autumn. Before Lu Zhenyu could even cross her arms, she was already wearing a coat.
The coat still retained some warmth, and when the evening breeze blew, it carried the smell of alcohol mixed with disinfectant.
She looked up and met Shen Jingsi's downcast gaze.
Lu Zhenyu: "Want to take a walk together?"
Her rosy cheeks and misty eyes, glistening under the streetlights, made Shen Jingsi's heart, which had been silent and broken but had never let go, itch with longing.
Those eyes were so full of affection that Lu Zhenyu looked away.
Glancing at her cane out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly realized, "I'd better take a car."
Shen Jingsi asked, "What's wrong?"
The man, who had forgotten that he was a patient, was thinking that by accompanying the woman on her walk back, he could rightfully spend more time with her.
How could he become so smug just because the girl called him "husband" in public?
Moreover, Shen Jingsi knew perfectly well that her clumsy attempts at coquetry were merely her way of using him.
But he was willing, even eager, to be used.
The fact that he could be used proves that she hasn't completely eliminated him.
The car has arrived.
Wang Kai got out of the passenger seat and helped Shen Jingsi up.
Turning to face Lu Zhenyu, he scratched his head awkwardly, "Madam."
It seems he understands the meaning behind her two thousand five hundred.
Lu Zhenyu smiled and asked, "Where is your other brother?"
Wang Kai: "What?"
Inside the car, Shen Jingsi said, "Tell me about your brother Wang Fengchu."
Wang Wolong: "..."
Lu Zhenyu laughed twice and got into the car amidst Wang Kai's utterly embarrassed expression.
…
In Lu Zhenyu's view, the nights in Beijing were even more extravagant and dazzling than the days.
A continuous stream of neon lights swept across her exquisite face, reflecting the seven colors in her amber pupils.
Lu Zhenyu couldn't help but murmur, "Didn't you know the alley night market was still open?"
"Madam, it's open."
Seeing that the man was smiling as he answered, Lu Zhenyu asked curiously, "What good news made Master Li so happy?"
The driver looked in the rearview mirror and said, "I'm just saying that you asked me the same question four years ago, though not in this car."
Wang Kai, in the passenger seat, immediately turned around. "Madam, do you still remember Brother Li?"
Lu Zhenyu was indeed a name that just came out of nowhere.
"And what about me? Do you remember me?"
Lu Zhenyu looked up at those expectant eyes with a half-smile.
After a five-second silence, Wang Kai, feeling utterly defeated, turned back and said, "Okay, I knew it."
Lu Zhenyu and the driver chuckled together.
She noticed the intense gaze out of the corner of her eye and turned to look at it.
The two faces favored by Nuwa met. Shen Jingsi, whose pupils were unfocused, had a deep longing in his eyes and lips, while Lu Zhenyu maintained the smile on her face.
They gazed at each other silently.
After gazing at her for a long time, Lu Zhenyu tilted her head and asked gently, "What are you thinking about?"
Shen Jingsi said softly, "It's nothing, I just feel very happy in this kind of scene."
Fox eyes sway gently under the blue starry sky.
Lu Zhenyu then heard, "I miss you so much, Zhenzhen."
The Rolls-Royce, which was driving steadily, suddenly braked sharply!
Caught off guard, Lu Zhenyu stumbled forward, and in the chaos, she was pulled by the arm and embraced in a broad chest.
"Um."
A sharp pain rang out from above, and Lu Zhenyu, realizing what was happening, quickly withdrew her hand from the man's thigh.
"Sorry, did I hurt you?"
Once he calmed down, Wang Kai looked over and asked, "Madam, are you alright?"
Mr. Li quickly explained, "I'm sorry, sir and madam, a stray cat suddenly darted out from the roadside just now."
"It's alright, Mr. Li, you can keep driving."
Lu Zhenyu looked at Shen Jingsi again, who was standing there blankly, staring at her without blinking.
The tenderness in her eyes had vanished, replaced by surprise, stunned silence, and a hint of panic.
"Shen Jingsi?"
"Sink the capital!"
The wandering soul of Shen Jingsi was brought back to its senses by this shout.
Looking at the person so close to him again, his muddled black eyes cleared, "I'm sorry, I lost my composure."
It's not just a loss of composure, it's an abnormal state.
Looking at the man who had completely different faces before and after the accident, Lu Zhenyu had doubts.
The rest of the journey was silent. Shen Jingsi stopped staring at her and stared blankly out the window.
Lu Zhenyu asked the driver to stop at the fork in the road. "Would you like to come for a walk with me?"
Shen Jingsi nodded without hesitation, "Okay."
It was a bit chilly in the suburbs late at night. Lu Zhenyu wore a long overcoat and slowed her pace to accommodate Chen Jingsi, who was using a cane.
A gentle evening breeze blew by, and she looked up, brushing her disheveled hair aside. "Are you cold?"
Shen Jingsi was only wearing a thin silk shirt, and the cool breeze that entered his body made the front of the shirt billow. He smiled and shook his head, "Zhenzhen, I am a man."
How could a man say he's cold in front of the girl he loves, or that he hates her?
But Shen Jingsi once said that, especially when looking at the face in front of him so clearly and soberly, those memories deeply etched in his mind would uncontrollably surge forth.
Lu Zhenyu laughed, "Silly girl, who says men can't say they're cold?"
She stopped and walked up to him. "Let's stop here."
Shen Jing glanced at the Lu residence, which was still some distance away, and assumed she was worried about her legs. "I can walk you to the door."
Actually, I wanted to walk with her a little longer.
Lu Zhenyu smiled and shook her head, "Some roads can be walked together, but some roads can only be walked alone."
In that trembling vision, she took off her coat, took his hands hanging at his sides, and like a mother taking her child to kindergarten, carefully put the coat back on sleeve by sleeve.
Back in front of him, under that burning gaze, he carefully straightened his collar and lightly dusted off his broad shoulders. "The reason I asked you to walk with me for a while is because I have something to tell you."
The girl took a step back and looked up with such a serious expression that Shen Jingsi's heart skipped a beat. "You can say whatever you want anytime, anywhere."
The implication is that there's no need to find a specific location.
Lu Zhenyu smiled, and her fox-like eyes, which were now narrowed, sparkled with a faint starlight.
She said, "Jing Si, let's get a divorce."
