"This is indeed the first time Ms. Su's car has been in an accident. We all know that," the insurance agent told Li Li. "Ms. Su ran a red light yesterday, and the other driver was also drunk and was driving 70 or 80 mph when he turned. Because they were going too fast, this is what happened."
"Drunk driving?" Li Li immediately asked, "What should we do now if the other party is driving under the influence?"
"I heard he was also injured and is still in the hospital."
After learning that the other car owner was also injured, Li Li stopped pursuing the right and wrong of the accident.
Seeing that the staff were checking the interior of the car, Li Li guessed that the damage assessment process would take a while, so he planned to go to the rest area to sit down and rest.
At this moment, a staff member suddenly stopped Li Li and said to him, "Mr. Li, please remove the valuables from the car. It will take several days to repair the car."
"OK."
Li Li got into the car, put one leg on the passenger seat, and took out all the heavy items in the glove box. When he was about to get out of the car, Li Li noticed that there was a document under his knee.
Thinking it was the manuscript of Su Beibei's new book, Li Li took it and left without paying any attention. He went to the leisure area and just sat down when the sales lady from the 4S store brought him a glass of water.
The sales lady recognized at a glance that the watch on Li Li's wrist was worth hundreds of thousands. She guessed that this man must be of extraordinary status and wanted to make a fortune.
"Sir, please have some tea." The sales lady bent down slightly to serve tea to Li Li. When she bent down, the low-cut neckline drooped down, revealing a pair of white and deep curves without any affectation.
Li Li saw it, but looked away naturally.
Li Li nodded and thanked her, "Thank you."
Seeing that Li Li was unmoved by her beauty, the saleswoman changed her tactics. Holding a tray, she said to Li Li with a smile, "Sir, we've just got a few new sports cars with beautiful colors and good performance, perfect for young and beautiful women. Since you're here, would you like me to help your lover pick one out?"
Su Beibei's car was damaged in a crash, and Li Li had originally intended to buy her a new sports car. Hearing what the saleswoman said, he was also a little tempted.
Li Li nodded, "Okay, take me to see it."
The saleswoman was delighted and said, "This way, please."
Li Li stood up and prepared to follow the female salesperson to look at cars. When he stood up, his movements were so large that he accidentally knocked over the cup of tea.
The saleswoman heard the noise and quickly turned around, squatting down to take the teacup away. She pulled out two pieces of paper and wiped the documents while apologizing, "I'm sorry, I got your documents wet."
Li Li saw her fearful attitude and knew she was afraid of offending him, so he waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I'll do it in a moment." He picked up the document, shook it, and said, "It's not important..."
As he was speaking, Li Li suddenly fell silent.
The saleswoman didn't hear the sound, thinking the document was important. She straightened up and glanced nervously at the document in Li Li's hand.
When she saw the words at the top of the document, her expression changed.
Divorce agreement!
The female salesperson was smart. Seeing that Li Li's expression was not right, she quickly took the teacup and slipped away.
Li Li sat down and stared at the divorce agreement in his hand, wishing he could pick out those five words with his eyes.
He finally lost his temper and tore the document into pieces.
...
When Su Beibei woke up, she saw the nurse tidying up the things on the table. She didn't see Li Li, so she asked the nurse, "Isn't Mr. Li here yet?"
The nurse shook his head and said, "Mr. Li went to the 4S store."
Su Beibei asked her: "What time is it now?"
"It's almost three o'clock."
Two hours had passed since the insurance agent called her at noon. Su Beibei didn't take it seriously. She said, "I'm a little thirsty."
"I'll get you some water."
The nurse poured water for Su Beibei. When Su Beibei heard the sound of water, a picture flashed in her mind and she remembered that the divorce agreement was still in the car!
Su Beibei quickly said to the nurse, "Sister, please give me your phone."
The nurse poured the water calmly and said, "Don't worry, drink the water first." After the nurse fed the water to Su Beibei, he gave the mobile phone to Su Beibei.
But Su Beibei took a sip of water and no longer felt as anxious as before.
She pondered for a moment before calling Li Li.
The phone rang for a long time, and Li Li finally answered it when it was almost over. "Beibei, have you been waiting for a long time? I'm almost done here, I'll be right over." Li Li's voice on the other end was tinged with laughter, and it sounded no different from usual.
Su Beibei heard Li Li's laughter, but fell silent. Su Beibei was fighting a silent battle with Li Li, testing him to see if he had read the document.
She didn't say anything, but Li Li didn't care. He said, "I'll drive over later. Do you want to eat anything? I'll buy it for you."
We can’t remain silent anymore!
Finally, Su Beibei ended her silence. She said, "Ali, I left a document on the passenger seat. Can you help me get it down?"
Upon hearing this, Li Li's smile froze on his lips.
"...What file?" Li Li pretended to know nothing.
Normally, if she asked Li Li to help her get the documents from the co-pilot seat, Li Li would definitely agree without hesitation, instead of asking her what documents she wanted. Su Beibei was sure that Li Li must have seen the divorce documents.
Strangely, after learning that Li Li had seen the document, Su Beibei's reaction wasn't as emotional as she had thought. She was calm, as still as still water.
"Ali, you've seen it, haven't you?"
Her calm question was like a slap in the face, ruthlessly slapping Li Li in the face.
Li Li stared at the pile of shattered divorce documents on the table. His eyes darkened, but his voice remained gentle for the moment. "Beibei, what are you talking about? What did I see?"
He crumpled the pieces of paper in his hand and said with a smile, "I didn't see anything."
"A-Li." Su Beibei didn't want to beat around the bush with Li Li anymore. She had been thinking about whether to wait until she was discharged from the hospital to discuss the divorce with Li Li, but since Li Li had already seen it, she decided to just get it out in the open.
"Ali, you saw the divorce agreement, right?"
Li Li's voice suddenly turned cold. "Beibei, you know that some words are hard to take back once they're spoken. Are you sure what you're saying now is what you really mean?"
Su Beibei knew that words can be easily forgotten. "I know. But the decision to divorce is something I've pondered for over a month and finally made."
Her breathing was shallow, but her tone was firm: "I think divorce is good for both of us."
"No! What's good about that!" Li Li rejected Su Beibei's idea without even thinking, "You want a divorce? When I was thinking about how to resolve the grudge between my mother and you, when I got my head smashed while trying to protect you, you were thinking about divorcing me?"
