Chapter 80 Divorce Conditions "We'll go to bed during these three hours."...
Meng Yuzhi looked out through the skylight and saw a luxury car parked in the shade of the trees in front of the Meng residence.
At the same time, Meng Yuzhi exited the gray software on his mobile phone. The red dot on it stayed at Meng's house, but delayed for half a minute.
Chi Liuai had been escorted into the house by the housekeeper and the servants.
Lin Zhun followed behind and seemed to notice the unfriendly gaze.
When he looked up, Meng Yuzhi was looking down at him. When their eyes met, he nodded slightly, a rare initiative to say hello.
This made Lin Zhun feel strange.
Of course, it soon became clear to him.
The girl the He family had chosen, Dong Jiali, was the illegitimate daughter of a Hong Kong real estate developer. She had been raised by a nanny since childhood, with whom she had developed a deep bond. This nanny was the same one who had cared for He Lin. According to her, she had raised Lin Zhun from infancy until he was six. Unfortunately, Lin Zhun had no memories before that age.
Chi Liuai was a little frightened by the hustle and bustle in the house. After he suddenly opened the door, the pause in laughter made the silence seem abrupt.
It was as if the mood was disturbed by an unpleasant outsider. The He family, who were unaware of the situation, looked unhappy, not to mention the people from the Dong family. The man brought some small gadgets with him from outside, and they were so beautiful, so they were naturally on guard.
"Grandma He." Chi Liuai greeted.
He Wanbai's attitude was lukewarm, even towards Lin Zhun. After coughing a few times, someone helped her upstairs, saying that Madam He was unwell.
No one responded to Chi Liuai's greeting.
The visiting Dong family members looked at each other knowingly.
It's not that Chi Liuai is sensitive. The fact that he took only half a minute to figure out that the guests here were unhappy amid the undisguised contempt of everyone else was commendable enough for his insight into people's hearts.
Perhaps because he felt proud of educating Lin Zhun along the way, Chi Liuai also asked the servants if they had not taken good care of him.
Otherwise, why would they not be happy to have a smiling face in the Meng family?
Perhaps Meng Yuzhi is not very popular.
In short, Chi Liuai still had the demeanor of a hostess. When everyone despised her brothel behavior, she was willing to step forward and take the initiative to ease their tension and let them not be too restrained.
When Chi Liuai looked at them, they always formed a stable social group, and Chi Liuai was excluded. But when Chi Liuai looked away, they would turn their attention to her again.
Chi Liuai sighed helplessly, then moved forward and had a few intimate words with Dong Jiali.
The Dong family watched helplessly as the little vixen that Lin Zhun had raised outside was smiling and challenging them.
Where did she take this?
Is it her own home?
Dong Jiali spoke to Chi Liuai in Cantonese, but Chi Liuai didn't understand. Lin Zhun had been sent upstairs by Chi Liuai to apologize to Meng Yuzhi. She listened boredly, sighed, and looked upstairs from time to time.
This was mistaken for an expression of hope.
Therefore, they were even less friendly towards Chi Liuai.
His words implicitly mocked Chi Liuai's restlessness.
The topic ended after Dong Jiali smiled and acted coquettishly for a few seconds.
After a moment of silence, Chi Liuai blinked his eyes and asked, "What are you talking about? Tell me about it."
The expectant expression seemed to be waiting for Dong Jiali to help her translate.
Dong Jiali: “…”
Meng Yuzhi came down from upstairs, and Chi Liuai's restlessness finally eased. She couldn't wait to go up and ask if their already troubled relationship had broken down. The Dong family saw their child standing there in a daze, looking anxious. The other vixen was eager and eager, posting online to everyone she saw!
Everyone's eyes fell on Meng Yuzhi, and they were delighted. Mr. Meng was dressed rather respectably, in a suit and tie. The well-tailored fabric perfectly accentuated his muscular figure. The maturity and stability tempered by time and power were particularly striking. His watch, tie clip, brooch, and even the Meng family ring were all deliberately exposed, clearly indicating the importance he attached to this family dinner.
At this time, they waited for Mr. Meng to drive away the uninvited guest.
The fact that Meng Yuzhi specifically mentioned this marriage must indicate that he attached great importance to the marriage between the Dong and He families.
After all, a child does not need to sign a contract to connect several business dealings.
Seeing Chi Liuai, Meng Yuzhi's slow, heavy steps quickened. Before he even approached, his gentle reminder to Chi Liuai to slow down fell into everyone's ears. The smile in Meng Yuzhi's eyes was really hard to hide. Holding the child's hand, he asked if it still hurt. As he spoke, he put his arm around Chi Liuai's shoulders and walked towards the crowd intimately. Chi Liuai didn't have the slightest chance to talk to Lin Zhun.
"Let me see your hands." Chi Liuai wanted to take off the leather gloves.
Meng Yuzhi only said: "It's nothing serious, just a minor injury."
Meng Yuzhi leaned over and smoothed Chi Liuai's hair onto her shoulders. The warm breath sprinkled on her neck. Chi Liuai felt like Meng Yuzhi's hand was touching her skin. When she wanted to break away from this intimacy, Meng Yuzhi would always accidentally touch Chi Liuai with his cold leather gloves, pinching Chi Liuai's guilt just right.
Everyone almost lost their balance.
Why didn't the servants remind them! This is Mr. Meng's woman!
After looking at each other with pale faces, they regretted that they were speaking Cantonese, which not many servants here could understand. They couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Mr. Meng had not heard their conversation.
"Are you getting impatient?" Meng Yuzhi asked.
Chi Liuai shook his head: "No, I'm chatting with the guests."
Meng Yuzhi thought about it, a hint of displeasure showing in his black eyes. He squeezed Chi Liuai's hand and suddenly asked, "Liuai, can you help me?"
"Help you?" Chi Liuai asked, "Me?"
Meng Yuzhi smiled: "Of course, Chi Liuai is the only one in the world who can solve this problem."
"Really?" Chi Liuai couldn't help but smile. She was about to ask Meng Yuzhi to beg her, but thinking of his injury, she could only agree reluctantly.
Meng Yuzhi squeezed Chi Liuai's hand and pleaded with a smile: "Please, generous child."
Chi Liuai was coaxed into a daze, but the person who was helping him urged him urgently, looking quite shrewd and calculating. He thought he was very smart to suppress his true thoughts, but his purpose was revealed before he even finished half a sentence.
"I helped you, can you forgive your brother?"
Meng Yuzhi said tolerantly, "Of course."
"Tell me now!"
"Become my wife." Meng Yuzhi said calmly.
Chi Liuai's smile was stiff and he didn't react.
Meng Yuzhi stared at Chi Liuai with his dark eyes for a while, then suppressed his emotions and explained calmly, "It's only tonight. For the sake of shares, the divorce news hasn't been revealed yet. We have guests coming tonight. Liuai, do you think the Meng family needs a hostess?"
Chi Liuai breathed a sigh of relief, and Meng Yuzhi's brows frowned, but quickly returned to normal.
"Okay, tonight." Chi Liuai looked around, became suspicious, and asked, "Why hasn't my brother come down yet? He is too worried about me. He has no ill intentions towards you, Brother Yuzhi."
Meng Yuzhi had a smile on his face and looked behind Chi Liuai: "I know, Liuai, he misses you too much."
Just know that any misunderstanding requires a face-to-face conversation.
If his brother and Meng Yuzhi could get along harmoniously, Chi Liuai's life would have fewer troubles.
She suddenly felt a little regretful. In fact, it was she and Meng Yuzhi who should have a face-to-face talk.
"I feel a little regretful." Chi Liuai blurted out.
Perhaps it was the regret in the girl's tone and expression that gave Meng Yuzhi a sudden hope of breaking free from all his calculations and preparations. He had already been indifferent to Chi Liuai and Lin Zhun's relationship. His efforts could be completely nullified by the girl's regret. Of course, he had to figure out what he regretted.
Do you regret agreeing to tonight's request?
Or do you regret divorcing yourself?
The veins on Meng Yuzhi's gloves were about to move, and he lowered the corners of his mouth, trying to remain reserved.
"What are you regretting?"
Chi Liuai raised her eyes to look at the man who was still calm and composed. There was no emotion on his face and he looked at her calmly.
Then he slowly said, "Actually, I should have told you about my relationship with my brother a long time ago, but it's too late now. In fact, from childhood to adulthood, my brother has been the best to me."
Tsk, what a heartless little thing.
Meng Yuzhi said with a half-smile: "It's okay, there will be opportunities in the future."
Meng Yuzhi was chatting with He Wanbai, and fearing that Chi Liuai would be bored, he patted her head and told her to go play. Meng Yuzhi saw Chi Liuai sticking to Lin Zhun and did not try to stop her.
I don’t know what Meng Yuzhi and Lin Zhun talked about in the study!
After hearing his brother's words, Chi Liuai almost fell down. He had to hold on to his brother's arm to recover.
Lin Zhun looked calm and begged Chi Liuai for help just like Meng Yuzhi. Chi Liuai had never felt so powerful before and agreed without thinking.
"Be my brother's girlfriend."
Lin Zhun, who had always been restrained, suddenly blurted out this sentence, and Chi Liuai blushed instantly.
Chi Liuai felt two electric currents running through his body.
The back felt heavy, as if I had fallen into a pot of sticky honey. I couldn't breathe, and I couldn't struggle, but it was sweet.
"Brother needs your help."
Lin Zhun told Chi Liuai that the girl opposite was also forced into marriage. If two people who did not love each other got married, would it be a regret for each other? Chi Liuai, who had suffered a failed but not too painful marriage, of course deeply understood it. She pretended to glance at Dong Jiali casually, her eyes full of sympathy.
Dong Jiali felt that this was the fourth time Chi Liuai had provoked her.
He would deliberately glance at her with eyes that he thought were well hidden, and after being caught, he would give himself a sweet smile, and then Lin Zhun would also smile faintly!
Dong Jiali stamped her feet in anger.
Lin Zhun frowned: "Look how sad she is."
"But, but."
Chi Liuai wanted to say, I have already played the role of Meng Yuzhi’s wife today, and now I have to be my brother’s girlfriend?
Lin Zhun lowered his head, and at this time Chi Liuai saw an inconspicuous small wound on Lin Zhun's brow bone, which was so fresh that it still retained a red mark.
Chi Liuai agreed.
Lin Zhun placed the ring in Chi Liuai's palm and said softly, "Thank you for your help."
The voice was very gentle, gently brushing against Chi Liuai's ears.
At this time, Chi Liuai seemed to hear Meng Yuzhi's voice. He looked over guiltily, but Meng Yuzhi was no longer there.
The ring in Chi Liuai's hand was warm, and it was unknown how long Lin Zhun had been holding it.
She is my brother's girlfriend.
With this mission in mind and to avoid Meng Yuzhi, Chi Liuai didn't know why his heart was panicking.
As she moved towards the Dong family, Chi Liuai took off the ring that Meng Yuzhi had put on her. This action was quietly watched by the man who was leaning on the escalator of the high-rise building with his hands.
Chi Liuai took off the ring on her right ring finger and put on Lin Zhun's.
Just like this family dinner, Chi Liuai cannot play the role of two people's wife at the same time and must choose one.
After arriving with the Dong family, everyone's attitude changed.
They looked over Chi Liuai's shoulder. The heir recognized by the He family stood calmly not far away, his eyes never leaving the girl's back, but he made a strange gesture, raised his head and nodded slightly towards the second floor with a faint smile.
Dong Jiali's eyes were red, and Chi Liuai was panicked. She hadn't even opened her mouth yet and she had already gotten into trouble.
"Don't cry." Chi Liuai forgot her mission for a moment. She assured Dong Jiali, "I'm not a bad person. I won't bully others casually."
Click on her! Click on her again!
Mr. Meng's expression just now was scary enough, but unexpectedly, Chi Liuai would also come to satirize their behavior just now.
But he didn't dare to get too angry. He raised his eyes and saw Lin Zhun's eyes as if he was facing a great enemy. He reached out and grabbed Mr. Meng who was moving forward. Meng Yuzhi paused and looked at Lin Zhun coldly with his chin tilted.
"You, are you really Mr. Meng's wife?" Dong Jiali had a terrible premonition in her heart. She knew a lot about the wealthy families and couldn't help but ask.
The two men looked calm, waiting for the girl's response.
Chi Liuai was stunned for a moment and nodded subconsciously.
"What about him? Who are you to him?"
In an instant, Chi Liuai blurted out.
"girlfriend."
Dong Jiali took two steps back.
The eavesdropping Dong family members fell silent.
He Wanbai closed his eyes.
Dong Jiali didn't even say Lin Zhun's name before Chi Liuai gave the answer.
It's like a preference.
Unfortunately, the Meng family does not allow Chi Liuai to show preference to others.
That night, everyone was silent, afraid to scrutinize Meng Yuzhi's expression. Even Chi Liuai was so reserved that he only dared to sit next to Dong Jiali. This meal was unforgettable. He Wanbai promptly smoothed things over and explained the relationship between the three of them, but he didn't dare to scold Chi Liuai.
Meng Yuzhi calmly told everyone that what he had just said was just a childish joke.
But is this really a joke?
Meng Yuzhi couldn't help but quicken his pace when they met, hugging and whispering, giving blunt warnings to the Dong family, never taking his attention away from Chi Liuai. Even a frown, a sigh, or a smile, Meng Yuzhi always responded in time. If she were Meng Yuzhi's wife, there would naturally be no problem with their deep love.
But why would the wife Mr. Meng mentioned get out of Lin Zhun's car from beginning to end, hold Lin Zhun's arm, wear a wedding ring that matched Lin Zhun's, and personally admit her relationship with Lin Zhun?
If the purpose is just to disrupt Lin Zhun's marriage, can such a naughty child really be left undisciplined?
Meng Yuzhi looked at He Wanbai's expression and simply said, "She's just having fun. Why would you bother with her?"
"Just indulge it! Indulge it! You're the only ones who have to put up with this kind of joke!"
The guests had all left. Chi Liuai wanted to leave quickly, so she leaned over to Lin Zhun's ear and said, "I think Meng Yuzhi is very angry. Let's leave quickly."
"I'll see you off." Meng Yuzhi appeared behind the two of them at some point and generously offered to see them off personally.
With a natural expression, he reached out like a gentleman and helped Chi Liuai take his coat.
Chi Liuai stood up without saying anything.
Until now, Chi Liuai still refused to take off Lin Zhun's wedding ring. Meng Yuzhi's smile did not reach his eyes, and he slowly walked behind Chi Liuai.
Not only did he not stop him, he also took the lead and took the door handle with his hand that had taken off his leather gloves.
Chi Liuai was startled and took two steps back, hitting the back of his head on Meng Yuzhi's chest.
Meng Yuzhi's palms originally had only a few scars, but they didn't affect his appearance at all, adding to his masculine charm. But now, dried blood and untreated wounds crisscrossed the back of his hands, leaving several gaping wounds, assaulting Chi Liuai.
Chi Liuai's pupils were trembling, and she looked at Lin Zhun in disbelief.
Lin Zhun's blood boiled. He had clearly only struck with one blow! One blow!
At that moment, Meng Yuzhi said gently, "Let's go, Liuai."
"Liuai, he..." Lin Zhun looked at Meng Yuzhi's sanctimonious expression and was eager to explain. He saw Chi Liuai holding Meng Yuzhi's other hand, and the horrific wound on his hand was twisted and provoked Lin Zhun, "It's not like that."
Meng Yuzhi's injury made Chi Liuai's blood boil. She had never seen Meng Yuzhi injured before. As a child who had always been coaxed and applied medicine by Meng Yuzhi when she had a little scrape, she couldn't imagine how he could have endured without treating the wound until now, and even forced himself to face outsiders calmly despite the pain.
Meng Yuzhi looked at Liuai's brother and said to him, "It's okay, it's just a minor injury."
Lin Zhun now wishes that he was the one who got hurt.
Chi Liuai stared blankly at Lin Zhun, then glanced at Meng Yuzhi and said, "Brother Yuzhi, you should check again. My brother is not a bad person. He will definitely not hurt you."
After thinking for Meng Yuzhi, he said it seriously.
"It must be that yellow-haired Luo Something En. I feel like he's the worst-intentioned one. I even ran into him the other day."
Meng Yuzhi closed his eyes and withdrew his hand.
After a while, he thanked Chi Liuai.
"Hmph, let's go."
Lin Zhun was very angry. If Liu Ai wasn't too smart, she would have fallen into this man's trap. Thinking of this, Lin Zhun suddenly felt a little happy. He didn't hide it in his heart. He snorted coldly with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and was about to take Liu Ai away.
"I'll apply medicine to Brother Yuzhi before I leave." Chi Liuai said helplessly.
Lin Zhun stopped smiling.
After all, Meng Yuzhi still managed to win back a game.
"Does it hurt?"
Chi Liuai was clumsy in applying the medicine, so he was very slow. The private doctor was assisting Chi Liuai. After he understood Mr. Meng's expression, he left silently, leaving the two of them alone in the bedroom.
Meng Yuzhi lowered his eyes and said, "From now on, it hurts."
"But my movements were very gentle!" Chi Liuai would not allow anyone to question the nursing skills she had learned first. She mistakenly thought Meng Yuzhi was blaming her for her clumsiness and retorted with a red face, "You haven't learned to be strong."
Meng Yuzhi smiled: "Of course, I have experienced this."
"What?" Chi Liuai didn't hear clearly.
Meng Yuzhi thought for a moment and said, "You only feel pain when someone cares about you."
The light gently fell on Meng Yuzhi's hands, revealing even the most ancient scars. Touching them, Chi Liuai reflected on how they had both felt them, joy and pain, but never knew their origins. Meng Yuzhi was a busy businessman, a dangerous one. She couldn't help but wonder if he'd been assassinated during his difficult years, or if he'd been wielding a knife in a turf war like in a TV drama, leaving these scars.
Chi Liuai asked this question: "How did they come from?"
Meng Yuzhi paused and asked, "What do you think?"
Chi Liuai cited many examples and described the competition among the wealthy families in a fantastic way. Meng Yuzhi smiled and listened carefully to every word Chi Liuai said. When she finished speaking, he praised Chi Liuai's imaginative talent. Perhaps Chi Liuai was really suitable to be a screenwriter.
However, the truth is often more absurd.
Meng Yuzhi said slowly, "When I was eight years old, I was removing expired advertisements from the walls of the street."
Chi Liuai was stunned and asked, "Is it dangerous?"
"It's not that dangerous. I learned that from stealing money from a casino because I felt my salary was too low."
Meng Yuzhi held the stunned girl in his arms, gave her his firm arms and warm chest, and slowly told her a short story.
A child, driven to make a living by removing discarded posters from the streets, yearns for more money. He's been told he can rise to prominence in Hong Kong. Lacking a father's guidance and a mother's care, he's ignorant and caught. His thugs threaten to break both of his hands. Meng Yuzhi leaves behind the ashtray, razor blade, brick, and leather shoes.
What are you angry about sometimes?
Meng Yuzhi is a selfish possessive, and is not very tactful when interacting with outsiders.
But the desire for control is a pathological desire for protection, and he is also a paranoid protector. Compared with the slow-witted Chi Liuai, Meng Yuzhi is more alert to the malice directed at Chi Liuai by the people around him, and he cannot accept the fact that Chi Liuai is being hurt.
What if he learns bad things? What if he meets such a thug? What if he can't get there in time? What if Chi Liuai is bullied, threatened, ignored and abandoned?
Meng Yuzhi, who made mistakes, also learned lessons in his childhood.
Even though it is insignificant compared to the dangers in the future, it is enough to make Meng Yuzhi remember it deeply.
After all, Chi Liuai, who was also a child, occasionally made a mistake. He hoped that what would fall into Chi Liuai's hands would not be a hot cigarette butt, an ashtray, cheap leather shoes, or a brick.
Chi Liuai's heart began to ache again. She didn't know what to say, so she lowered her head and kissed Meng Yuzhi's scar.
He kissed the palm of Meng Yuzhi's hand again.
Meng Yuzhi's fingers curled slightly, and his throat suddenly tightened, not because of desire.
Chi Liuai said: "My brother said that if you make a mistake, you might get a kiss in your hand, so don't be sad."
Innocent face, happy words, and well-behaved comfort.
Who taught me? Who taught me, who taught me...
Meng Yuzhi knew who taught the child and what a good child he was.
Disappointment and jealousy crushed all of Meng Yuzhi's disguises.
It was actually him who lost his composure at this time. Chi Liuai always calmly forced Meng Yuzhi to become a calm and jealous husband.
These dirty, morbid and dark desires gave Meng Yuzhi a chance to breathe at this moment.
"Does it still hurt?"
Meng Yuzhi said, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Chi Liuai nodded and heard the man say that he would give her a reward.
"No, no." Chi Liuai refused.
Meng Yuzhi stood up and placed Chi Liuai safely on the ground. A tall black shadow enveloped Chi Liuai.
Question: "You want to get a divorce certificate, right?"
Chi Liuai lowered her head guiltily. She was not completely without conscience, and she urgently urged Meng Yuzhi to get a divorce certificate.
"Speak." Meng Yuzhi said calmly, "I don't want to hear lies."
Chi Liuai said, "I kind of miss it."
"The Civil Affairs Bureau will close in three hours." Meng Yuzhi took off his watch. This action made Chi Liuai's body tingle in a long time. Meng Yuzhi said, "I have a condition."
Without waiting for Chi Liuai's response.
"These three hours, let's go to bed."
Meng Yuzhi opened the door and placed his hand on the half-closed door frame. Lin Zhun was standing outside the house for a long time.
"Or, starting today, you must report to me every day and not refuse to meet with me at any time." Meng Yuzhi added, "I need to monitor you. Please understand."
Chi Liuai's scalp suddenly felt numb.
