"... Qi Nian, let's get a divorce."

The voice was cold and clear, a little vague, with a little hoarseness and trembling. It didn't even sound like there was much hatred or resentment, only deep sadness and despair, which made the listeners' hearts sink.

The huge box suddenly became dead silent.

Not to mention Xu Jinzhi who had always stood on Su Yunbai's side, even Zhang Xun and his ilk felt their scalps tingling at this moment.

It's not that no one has imagined the scene of this couple's divorce, but no matter what, it doesn't seem to be like this. The woman was not hysterical, not full of resentment... The story came to an end, and she seemed to be left with only helplessness and despair.

As for the man…

Huo Qinian was only in a trance for a moment, and quickly came back to his senses.

He even seemed too calm: "Teacher Su, are you threatening me?"

Su Yunbai was not interested, "Just take it as it is." Huo

Qinian's expression suddenly became cold.

Ji Cheng stepped forward, "Qinian, don't be impulsive!"

Huo Qinian ignored him, just looked at Su Yunbai quietly for a long time, and said calmly: "Since this is your choice, okay."

He did not accept any threats in any sense.

Su Yunbai also said calmly: "I will ask you to sign the divorce agreement later."

After that, she turned and walked out. Before leaving, her eyes paused on Qu Qingyin for a moment, but she said nothing.

Everyone stood there, watching the figures of Su Yunbai and Xu Jinzhi slowly go away.

Not until the two disappeared behind the gradually closing door of the private room did everyone's eyes fly around.

No one in the private room spoke, and the atmosphere was a little solemn for a while.

Huo Qinian glanced around, raised his eyebrows, and became the master of the scene again.

Master Huo said lazily: "Who should be the next one?"

He seemed to be unaffected by the divorce and was still able to "calm" the situation.

The parties involved were so calm, and the rest of the people naturally showed their support.

The atmosphere became heated again. This particularly impressive truth or dare game continued like this.

The so-called beautiful woman's private room seemed to be as lively as before. But people's hearts are hidden beneath the skin, and what is going on in each person's heart is not something that outsiders can tell.

The white car drove aimlessly on the city roads, leaving the street lights behind. Inside the car, the music was turned up too loud, drowning out the sound of the car engine and other small, broken breathing sounds.

Xu Jinzhi had already muted her mobile phone, but WeChat messages kept bombarding her one after another, burning her phone.

The phone was hot, but Xu Jinzhi's hot brain finally calmed down.

She realized later that she seemed to be too impulsive.

But those dogs and bitches, why not sell them quickly and keep them for the New Year?

Xu Jinzhi sat in the passenger seat, carefully observing Su Yunbai's expression, his heart was in turmoil.

Su Yunbai had already driven along the Ring Expressway for the second time, and it was obvious that he had not decided where to go. Xu Jinzhi did not dare to ask, and curled himself up.

The car passed the Ring Expressway for the third time, and there were very few vehicles passing by. The huge highway suddenly seemed empty.

Su Yunbai seemed to finally come to his senses, and reached out to turn down the volume of the stereo in the car.

Soft music flowed in the car. Su Yunbai sighed softly in the music: "What a pity to ruin your birthday party."

Xu Jinzhi waved his hand, "Don't do that, the party is over. Besides, it's something that happens every year, so it's not rare..." Then she suggested, "Teacher's assistant, if you haven't decided where to go, why don't you go to my new home? It's on the outskirts of the city..."

"Okay." Su Yunbai checked the direction and really went to the outskirts of the city.

More than half an hour later, the two of them lay on the rooftop of Xu Jinzhi's villa, quietly enjoying the night breeze.

Xu Jinzhi held it in for a long time, and finally couldn't hold it in anymore, "Teacher's assistant, how many points did you get on that grading sheet?"

Su Yunbai's voice sounded particularly gentle in the night, and seemed to be smiling: "Do you still remember this?"

"Of course, I always remember it."

Xu Jinzhi said, taking out his mobile phone to show Su Yunbai, "In just a short while, I have received twelve calls and countless WeChat messages. They are all scolding me... so fierce.

"I'm a little panicked now, I'm really afraid that I will blow you away in one breath..."

She was a little unconvinced again, "However, you said that I was impulsive and rash... I admit these, but... I don't regret it." She said, and looked at Su Yunbai again, "Teacher's assistant, do you regret it?"

Su Yunbai shook his head, "No. "

Xu Jinzhi didn't quite believe it.

Su Yunbai said: "In fact, it doesn't matter how many points you give on the scoring sheet. Because I haven't figured out how many points I need to get before making a decision. Now it's easier..."

Xu Jinzhi couldn't help but sigh, looking like he was disappointed with someone.

Su Yunbai continued: "But for many things, I actually had a tendency in my heart from the beginning, but I was in it and couldn't see clearly.

"It was your words that reminded me. Do you remember? You said that on my scoring sheet, unhappy people get positive points, and happy people get negative points..."

This is actually a tendency. What she scored was not a satisfaction meter, but a tolerance meter.

She wanted to see how long she could endure.

Xu Jinzhi thought about it and it made some sense.

She breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay. You don't know, when I accidentally saw those text messages from you, I was so angry that I almost exploded."

Xu Jinzhi was still filled with righteous indignation when he said this.

Su Yunbai couldn't help but smile bitterly.

She guessed that it was because of those text messages.

Xu Jinzhi asked: "You didn't question Huo Qinian? If his mother filed for divorce, it could be used as physical evidence of cheating, right? Are you so careless?

"What's so good about Huo Qinian? You are so... I don't know, obsessed with him? Can you still tolerate it after all this?"

"This has nothing to do with infatuation, but... I have read some sharing posts. Of course, some of them are also my own conclusions from the people around me."

Su Yunbai was very frank, "There are some things that I think make sense.

"For example, couples or spouses do not trust each other enough and suspect each other... Whether it is testing or direct questioning, it will cause disputes.

"People are like this. Once they get angry, they often don't care about anything and say some very hurtful words. For example, breaking up, such as divorce...

"The more you quarrel, the thinner the relationship will be. Even if you can reconcile after a quarrel, both parties will be hurt in their hearts..."

Su Yunbai kept these so-called lessons in mind, so in marriage, she has always been very careful about her degree.

Xu Jinzhi was shocked.

She didn't know what to say, "Oh my God! Are you trying to be a model wife? So 'virtuous'?"

Su Yunbai laughed at herself, "Maybe it's because I was too worried about gains and losses, so I accidentally overdid it.

"But whether it's love or marriage, it may be like sand in your hand. The tighter you hold it, the harder it is to catch..."

Su Yunbai's voice was light, and even her self-mockery seemed to be a little cold and self-restrained.

Xu Jinzhi's heart ached.

She really didn't understand, "What's so good about Huo Qinian?! You have been thinking about him for so many years just to see the stars?"

"It's not about seeing the comet," Su Yunbai emphasized, "Jinzhi, I never believe in love at first sight."

Therefore, she couldn't be attracted to Huo Qinian without hesitation just because of the experience of seeing a comet.

She valued other things.

In fact, it is still related to her growth experience.

Su Yunbai doesn't know much about other people, but going abroad has a far-reaching impact on her.

A long time ago, Su Yunbai once saw a sentence: "Only when you go abroad can you love your country." This sentence is 100% true for her.

Before going abroad, Su Yunbai, like most people around her, had a very general concept of the so-called "country". She thought it was more of a paper thing.

But after going abroad, she seemed to know her belonging all of a sudden, and inexplicably had a strong sense of responsibility and honor.

Huo Qinian appeared in her life at that time.

After watching the comet that night, the two didn't even exchange names. But not long after, Su Yunbai met Huo Qinian again at a recruitment presentation for international students.

Huo Qinian, standing on the stage, was shining like thousands of stars. He talked to his compatriots about his ambitions, the projects he would carry out in the future, and his ambition to develop our country's own basic subject tools, including some basic software and basic databases...

All of these were things that Su Yunbai had been thinking about during that time, but had no system.

Good-looking appearance, romantic taste... These things were not the most important to Su Yunbai.

At first, she was attracted to Huo Qinian because she saw a passionate soul in him.

She remembered this Huo Qinian for many years, and always thought that she had glimpsed his real appearance. So later, even if she saw a Huo Qinian who was indifferent to everything and only pursued interests, she thought that was just his appearance...

She forced herself.

Su Yunbai put his hands behind his head, looked at the gray-red sky, and said faintly: "Memory can be deceiving."

If nothing happened later, perhaps that time of watching the comet would have been just an ordinary experience for her. It was because she was moved later, and when she recalled the past, it seemed that everything was covered with a layer of dreamy color. The ordinary experience became different because of this, as if everything indicated that fate was predestined...

After thinking about it more and savoring it for a long time, she believed it herself.

This is probably deceiving herself, right?

She has been deceiving herself for a long time. Now, it is time to wake up from the dream.
