Chapter 83 But she was such a person that she could easily tear his heart into pieces.
The apartment was heated fully.
Yu Shiqi flipped through the report.
The photo was very clear, with a messy bed and naked men and women entangled.
Some of the photos were taken in the high-end apartment owned by Chen Liren. Li Wei was wearing Chen Liren's shirt and snuggling in his arms with a smile. Yu Shiqi remembered that the decorative painting in the background was picked by her herself.
She didn't cry or ask hysterically.
Su Yu couldn't sit still anymore. She wanted to say something, but Gu Manman stopped her with a look.
Yu Shiqi read it calmly and took pictures of them one by one with her mobile phone.
Click Send.
【divorce】
After typing these two words, as if all my strength had been used up, the phone slipped from my fingers with a "click".
She rushed over and hugged Gu Manman tightly.
"Wow--"
The crying that had been suppressed to the extreme finally broke out. It was not the kind of sobbing of grievance, but a howl filled with despair and a sense of tearing.
Her body shook violently and warm tears flowed out.
“…Why…why…”
The intermittent words were drowned out by the crying, without any tune or sentence.
Gu Manman let her hold her and patted her back gently.
The phone on the ground vibrated wildly, and the caller ID showed - Chen Liren.
After hanging up, Li Wei called again.
Su Yu bent down, picked up the phone on the carpet, and pressed the power off button directly.
"Don't worry about it," Su Yu put the phone on the coffee table, with a hint of coaxing a child, "Go to sleep first, ok? The sky won't fall."

The next morning.
Su Yu came back with a few breakfast bags: "Li Wei is here, downstairs."
"Ah... that..." Yu Shiqi still had a strong nasal tone, "I... I told him the address here before..."
At that time, she was still immersed in the sweetness of her newlywed life and her vision for the future. After arriving in Jiangcheng, she sent her location to her husband and good friends to assure them of her safety, thinking it was a perfectly normal thing.
Thinking about it now, it’s just ironic.
Gu Manman: "Do you want to see her?"
Yu Shiqi lowered her head, her fingers unconsciously picking at the tassels on the edge of the blanket.
After a long while, she raised her head, her eyes were as dead as ashes, but also full of stubbornness.
"See."
"I want to know why."
/
"I'm pregnant." Li Wei sat on the sofa opposite.
"Three months."
"Shiqi, I know I've let you down... I don't ask for anything else, I don't want a name, I don't want anything, just let me... let me give birth to the child, okay?"
Su Yu almost couldn't hold back and cursed out loud on the spot, but Gu Manman pressed the back of her hand calmly.
Yu Shiqi had no expression, just looked at her and asked calmly: "Why?"
"Aren't we friends? I always considered you my best friend."
Li Wei looked at the three people opposite her with gazes full of contempt and scrutiny.
"Shiqi... Men are unreliable..." Her voice was filled with tears, "The first time he came to my room, he took the initiative..."
"If it's not me...it will be someone else..."
She became more and more excited as she spoke: "Look at which man doesn't have a lover outside? It just depends on whether he can keep it a secret. Liren is willing to go to great lengths to keep it a secret from you, which means he loves you very much."
"I promise that I will never compete with you for the position of Mrs. Chen. I can even block the outside beauties for you. We are sisters with the same aspirations, isn't that good?"
At first, Yu Shiqi just wanted an answer, a why.
But now, listening to Li Wei's incoherent and shameless words, she suddenly realized that to say one more word to such a person would be a waste of words and an insult to herself.
She just felt a wave of nausea in her stomach.
Yu Shiqi smiled, but the smile was cold and a little sarcastic.
She interrupted Li Wei.
"I will divorce Chen Liren."
"Mrs. Chen's position," she said with a firm and resolute voice, "Go and get it if you have the ability."
/
Gu Manman and Yu Shiqi were standing on the side of the road. A black business car was parked not far away. The driver had opened the trunk and put the luggage in.
"I have already hired a lawyer to handle the divorce."
"I'll go straight to the airport and return to Country A to see my parents."
Yu Shiqi sniffed, her nose turning a little red from the cold, but her eyes were empty as she stared at the busy street.
"Love is such a weird thing." She pulled the corner of her mouth and laughed at herself, "One second I felt I loved him to death, and the next second, I felt so sick when I thought of his face that I wanted to vomit."
Yu Shiqi turned her head, looked at Gu Manman, and hugged her tightly.
"Manman, thank you."
Gu Manman hugged her back and patted her back gently.
The two talked for a long time before saying goodbye.
After seeing Yu Shiqi off, she sat down on a bench by the roadside.
She was wearing a fluffy white down jacket and a teddy bear woolen hat of the same color. Her two furry ears drooped on both sides of her head.
In the car not far away, Feng Mingzhou's eyes never left her.
Looking at her in all white, wearing that silly hat, sitting there quietly, looking small and dazed, something in his heart softened and a surging emotion almost overwhelmed him.
No matter how I look at it, I feel like I like it and love it so much.
He tilted his head and whispered a few words to the assistant beside him.
The assistant got out of the car quickly and came back a few minutes later with two paper bags printed with the coffee shop's logo.
Feng Mingzhou pushed open the car door and walked towards the bench, his tall shadow covering Gu Manman.
Gu Manman raised her head.
Feng Mingzhou handed her a cup of hot coffee: "Warm your hands."
She reached out to take it, and the warmth of the coffee immediately dispelled the coldness from her fingertips.
"Thanks."
Feng Mingzhou sat down next to her.
Neither of them spoke. There was only the sound of cars passing by on the road in the distance, regular and monotonous.
After a long while, Feng Mingzhou spoke first, his voice low and casual: "Chen Liren's company will not last more than a month."
Gu Manman didn't react much, just looked at the coffee in her hand.
He added, with a hint of subtle temptation in his tone: "Don't let this make you disappointed in your marriage."
Gu Manman finally turned her head and looked at him.
Feng Mingzhou met her gaze, his Adam's apple rolled, and he added stiffly, "No... not all marriages are like this."
Gu Manman suddenly smiled gently. The smile was cold but her eyes seemed to be filled with a thin layer of ice.
"When it comes to marriage," she said slowly, "as expected, you, Mr. Feng, are more experienced."
Feng Mingzhou's breath was choked, as if he had been punched in the face, and the rest of his words were stuck in his throat.
The area around my heart was repeatedly pounded bluntly, causing me to feel numb from the pain.
It's really his own fault.
Now this little bitterness is all he deserves.
Gu Manman withdrew her gaze and looked back at the gray sky at the end of the road.
"Feng Mingzhou," her voice was very soft, but unusually clear, "Let's not get entangled, okay?"
She paused, afraid that he didn't understand, and added: "Actually, if we really want to make a fuss about what happened in the past, you have helped me a lot, and I was willing to give. We are even now."
"It's really impossible for us to do this. In the future... maybe we can just be friends."
Be friends?
A chill instantly spread from the soles of my feet to every part of my body.
He would rather she hated him, resented him, and ridiculed him as she did before, than say some nonsense about "being friends" calmly and even with a hint of charity like now.
The three words "be friends" echoed repeatedly in his mind, and each time it was like a bloody scar on his heart.
She said it so lightly, erasing the past entanglements and living in peace in their own places from now on.
But how could he do that?
What is a friend?
Only when there is neither love nor hate can we be friends.
His hands on his knees tightened unconsciously.
Feng Mingzhou tilted his head and stared at her profile.
The tip of her small nose was slightly reddened by the cold wind, and her long eyelashes cast a light shadow under her eyes.
The fluffy little bear hat made her look particularly well-behaved and harmless, but even so, she could easily tear his heart to pieces.
He fished out a cigarette case from his pocket, shook out a cigarette and lit it.
The smell of nicotine slightly dispelled the suffocating cold.
"Manman."
"I can't do it." Feng Mingzhou's voice was very soft, but every word was clear, "I can't be friends with you."
"Forget it then." She said, "Since we can't be friends, let's just be strangers."
Gu Manman stood up, took two steps forward, then stopped, turned around, raised the still warm coffee cup in her hand towards him, and the corners of her mouth curved in a polite and distant arc.
"Thank you, Mr. Feng, for the coffee."
