Hearing Gu Nianci's words, I couldn't help but feel surprised. My home with her? Didn't she never want to go back to live there? Even before I moved out, she never thought of going back. She should have been with Xu Yan afterward, so why is she going back now?
While I was wondering what was going on, Song Qingrong had already left the coffee shop and gotten into a car. I followed her, and soon we arrived at my old home.
Upon arriving here, I felt a sense of both strangeness and familiarity.
What's unfamiliar is that the courtyard here is now filled with potted sunflowers.
What's familiar is that this is, after all, my former home.
Song Qingrong was stunned at this moment. Obviously, she did not expect there to be so many sunflowers here suddenly. It was not until Gu Nianci got up from the pile of sunflower pots that Song Qingrong came back to her senses.
"Come in and have a seat."
Gu Nianci looked at Song Qingrong and said.
Song Qingrong didn't move. Her gaze shifted from the sunflowers to Gu Nianci, and she sneered, "What are you trying to do by suddenly planting so many sunflowers?"
After a moment of silence, Gu Nianci explained, "I went to Xu Ruo's grave and saw the grave of a girl named Yan Yin next to it. There were sunflower shadows around both of their graves."
"I think Xu Ruo probably likes sunflowers too."
"So I asked someone to buy some potted plants for me."
"Don't you think this is ridiculous?" Song Qingrong seemed to laugh in anger. "When Xu Ruo was alive, why didn't you treat him like this?"
"Now that the person is gone, why are they doing this?"
"Or are you just putting on an act for outsiders, to make them think how devoted you are as an ex-wife?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Nianci frowned slightly and fell silent again, the two of them staring at each other.
"Did I hit the nail on the head?" After a while, Song Qingrong continued, her gaze towards Gu Nianci filled with hatred.
Gu Nianci sighed, "Think what you want."
"If you came to me to say these things, then please leave."
“Of course not!” Song Qingrong said as she walked into the villa. “I’m here to take away Xu Ruo’s belongings.”
“Now, I am his wife, and his things should no longer be left here.”
"You two did not obtain a marriage certificate."
"That's not important."
"There's nothing of his left here either; he took it all with him before."
"If he took everything, would he only have one suitcase with just three sets of clothes to change into?" Hearing this, Song Qingrong suddenly stopped and turned to stare at Gu Nianci. "Are you kidding me?"
Watching the two of them locked in a fierce confrontation, I felt a bit of a headache. However, I felt more sorry for Song Qingrong. I hadn't expected her to come here for this matter, but Gu Nianci was right.
My things were taken a long time ago.
There was indeed only one suitcase.
Looking back now, I don't even know how I got through these years. Maybe I really don't care much about material things, or maybe my mind was all on Gu Nianci back then.
As I was thinking, Gu Nianci said again, "If you don't believe me, go in and see for yourself."
Upon hearing this, Song Qingrong went inside without thinking much about it.
I followed them without even realizing it.
The furnishings inside the room hadn't changed much, but there wasn't much dust, so it seemed that Gu Nianci had indeed tidied up. After a short while, Gu Nianci followed her in and said to Song Qingrong, "Xu Ruo's room is the first one on the second floor. You can go and see for yourself."
"There is indeed nothing of his left here."
Upon hearing this, Song Qingrong suddenly stopped in her tracks. She turned to look at Gu Nianci and asked in a seemingly calm voice for the first time, "Gu Nianci."
"Don't you really have a heart?"
