Su Beibei lowered the window and asked her, "Have you had breakfast?"
Song Ci nodded and said, "I ate it."
The court was due to open at nine o'clock, with still more than ten minutes to go, but by then, the courthouse was already packed with people: family members of the Gu, Li, and Ying families, media outlets that had rushed in after hearing the news, and many jurors.
Song Ci came with Han Wangwang. As the main lawyer in charge of Liu Qing's case, Han Wangwang would also be present today to participate in the trial of Gu Qinchuan.
Han Wangwang had already entered the court building. Song Ci wanted to stay outside to get some fresh air, so she stayed to talk with Su Beibei. Song Ci had heard about what happened last night, so she asked Su Beibei, "Auntie Li didn't hurt you, did she?"
Su Beibei shook her head, "No, he wanted to kill me, but Li Li stopped him."
Song Ci saw that Su Beibei had a calm expression, but her heart was filled with uneasiness.
She thought of what Yan Qingxiu said the day before, and saw Su Beibei's eyes filled with sadness. Su Beibei saw her sad look and asked her: "What's wrong? You look unhappy."
Song Ci said, "I feel sorry for you."
Su Beibei was stunned for a moment, then stopped talking.
Song Ci caught a glimpse of a document placed on the passenger seat of Su Beibei's car. She glanced at it curiously and saw the five neatly bold words "Divorce Agreement" at the top of the document. Her expression suddenly changed.
"Beibei!"
Su Beibei was looking down at her phone. When she heard the call, she looked up at Song Ci and smiled faintly. She asked, "What's wrong with you? You're so startled."
Song Ci pointed at the document and asked cautiously, "Beibei, are you really planning to divorce Li Li?"
Su Beibei's smile disappeared.
She tilted her head to glance at the divorce agreement, and after a long moment, she hummed softly. "Hmm."
Song Ci was like a child who had done something wrong, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
After leaving Su Beibei's house the day before yesterday, Yan Qingxiu said something to Song Ci. He said, "Ms. Su will get a divorce soon."
Yan Qingxiu's words had been lingering in Song Ci's mind for the past two days. So when Han Zhan told her last night that Aunt Li had been pushed to the ground by Li Li, had fainted, and needed another craniotomy, Song Ci had a bad feeling.
Now that she saw the divorce agreement, Song Ci knew that things were really going to be bad.
Su Beibei has never been the kind of person who drags her feet. The divorce agreement appeared in her car, which means that she has really decided to give up this marriage.
Song Ci couldn't bear to see Su Beibei and Li Li break up like this, so she couldn't help asking, "You still love him, are you willing to divorce him?"
When Su Beibei heard this, she blinked gently and shed two tears.
She didn't wipe her tears. She said, "I really can't bear to leave him, but I can't bear to spend the rest of my life stuck in this mud. I got married for happiness and a happy family. Now I'm not happy anymore."
Su Beibei looked up at Song Ci, her eyes red with laughter, but her words were firm, with a sense of relief from seeing through the mundane world. "Song Song, love alone can't sustain a marriage. Between Li Li and I, there's only love left, but this love makes me suffer."
