sever ties
There was a slight creaking sound, and Yaya's eyes went dark. She looked up at Xu Qiao, who had just closed the door, in confusion.
Xu Qiao didn't explain anything to her, but just smiled and said, "Let's go downstairs and play for a while, do you want to go?"
Ya Ya paused, then nodded.
The elevator went down, and Xu Qiao took Yaya to a dessert shop in the community. He ordered a lot of delicious food for her, then sat down and looked at her. "I'm going to go up again now. You sit here and wait for Song Yu and I to pick you up. Don't pay attention to strangers. Call me if you have any problems. Can you do that?"
"I'm not a child anymore." Yaya lowered his head and took apart a fork. Then he hesitated for a moment and looked up at Xu Qiao again. "But Teacher Xu Qiao, why are you going up there?"
Xu Qiao smiled at her and said, "I'm going to help Song Yu fight."
But when he reached the door again, Song Yu was the only one left in the room. A piece of paper was placed lightly on the coffee table. She was kneeling on the sofa with her head down, cleaning up the puzzle pieces that she had thrown around casually before. Her long black hair hung straight down, blocking her expression.
As if hearing a light knock at the door, Xu Qiao saw her raise her head and look at him with no expression on her face. Then she quickly lowered her head and picked up the puzzle pieces one by one and put them into the box beside her. As if just casually asking, "Where's Yaya? Why did you come back alone?"
"I ordered a lot of delicious food for her at the dessert shop downstairs." Xu Qiao sat down on the sofa next to her, reached out and lifted her hair to her ear, and looked down at her, "Are you okay?"
Song Yu paused, then continued, "It's just a severance of ties. What's good or bad about it? I've foreseen this day a long time ago."
Xu Qiao's eyes briefly glanced at the thin piece of paper on the table, "What about the house?"
"If he wants to take it back, let him take it back. I don't need a place to live anyway. This one is rented. Give me three days. I will start looking for an agent tomorrow and move out as soon as I find one."
"Although a piece of paper can't legally sever ties with them, I don't think they'll let me take care of them in their old age. After all, what if I poisoned them? So, they probably won't contact me again." She shrugged. "That's exactly what I want."
Xu Qiao just tilted his head and looked at her without saying anything. Song Yu glanced at him and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Do you think I'm reliable?"
Song Yu joked, "With your 300,000, it will be reliable."
"Then..." Xu Qiao looked at her, "Would you like to move in with me?"
Song Yu looked at him for a long time, then smiled when he heard what he said, "Why? You want to be my landlord? You should ask your landlord if he's willing, right?"
"No need to ask," Xu Qiao said, "He's already agreed. My parents bought me that house when they were still alive. I decided to live here because it's close to school."
"You want my rent?"
"You can give me anything to pay the rent."
Song Yu leaned forward, his expression slightly coaxing, "So... what do you want now?"
Xu Qiao didn't say anything, but his gaze gradually moved downwards from those bright eyes, and finally stopped at a position. He didn't say anything but his meaning was very obvious.
But Song Yu still teased him maliciously, "Huh? Why don't you say anything? What do you want?"
Before he could finish his words, he was blocked by a pair of cool lips. Song Yu held his face and kissed him with a smile at first, then the pressure between their lips became stronger and stronger, and the pressure on the back of each other's neck also became stronger and stronger. Both of them seemed to want to press the other into their bodies, hugging each other's shoulders and neck, and the ambiguous sound of saliva kept oozing out of their lips and teeth.
Song Yu changed her previous teasing and became more serious. From Xu Qiao's soft lips and tongue and the strength of his attack, she closed her eyes and felt his unspoken heartache and unspoken comfort. She knew that no matter what time, he would always stand by her, since their youth.
But in the end, Song Yu did not really move into Xu Qiao's house. He just stayed there for a few days and moved out after finding a house.
Song Qixing never regretted looking for her afterwards. In fact, there was no fierce fighting and confrontation at the scene that day as Xu Qiao had imagined. On the contrary, the house was as calm as a pool of stagnant water.
That day, after Xu Qiao closed the door and left with Yaya, Song Yu didn't say anything, but his face looked very ugly.
Song Qixing snorted coldly and turned around to sit on the sofa. "What on earth is there about that mute girl that makes you treat her so well? She can't speak and has a family like that." Song Qixing said, "If you keep her around, you'll end up getting into trouble sooner or later. Last week, your mother was driving when this family suddenly showed up and stopped her. They wanted her daughter back and finally forced your mother to call the police before they drove her away. What good is there in a child from a family like that? Send her back as soon as possible. You're so young and you're rushing to be someone else's mother. Be careful that girl colludes with your family and plots to sell you off and then charge you for the money."
"Now, immediately, send that mute back. I can immediately handle the transfer procedures for this house for you." At this time, Song Qixing actually showed some rare fatherly care and concern. "Dad is doing this for your own good."
Song Yu lowered her head and said nothing for a long time. Just when Song Qixing thought that Song Yu would definitely compromise, he didn't expect Song Yu to raise her head and sneer, "After saying so much, isn't it just because you think you can control my life at will? Is this the first time I know that she has that kind of family? If I were afraid, I wouldn't have kept her by my side from the beginning."
She took a deep breath and said, "Anyway, I will take care of this matter. I promise that the family will never come after you again."
"No." Song Qixing interrupted her, "Only by sending the mute back completely can we eliminate future troubles. You go find her now and send her back. There is no room for negotiation on this matter."
"Otherwise, you should move out of this house. You don't act like my daughter at all. You are so disobedient that you don't deserve to live in my house."
Song Yu was silent for a while, then asked him only one question, "Do you hate me so much? You didn't give me a home, so I found one for myself. Don't you allow me to do that?"
Song Qixing just frowned and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean we didn't give you a home? Without us, you would have starved to death on the streets."
"If I didn't feel sorry for dying like this, I would have returned this life to you long ago." Song Yu muttered to himself, then turned and walked into the room, took a ladder and took down a box on the top of the wardrobe.
She placed the box on the ground, opened it, and knelt on the ground to take things out one by one. Song Qixing walked over and took a look. His expression immediately became strange. He cleared his throat and said, "Ahem, it turns out that you took all these photo frames. Your mother was still looking for these things the other day."
After saying that, he squatted on the ground and observed with interest, pointing to a photo frame and said to Song Yu who was still taking things out, "Hey, look at this one..."
When he turned around and wanted to have a heartwarming discussion with Song Yu about reminiscing about the past, a transparent folder was handed to him, as if Song Yu had found it from the bottom of the box.
Song Qixing was in a very good mood at the moment. His voice became strangely soft as he asked Song Yu, "What is this?"
He lowered his head. The document clearly read "Parent-Child Relationship Termination Agreement" in large letters. His face froze and he raised his face gloomily. "What do you mean by this?"
Song Yu's expression was very indifferent. "This document is in triplicate. Take one copy back and have Ye Yuping sign one. If that family comes to you again in the future, just show them this document directly."
Song Qidong moved his lips, but Song Yu didn't let him speak. "I know this agreement has no legal effect, so it can only be constrained from a moral perspective. After you sign it with Ye Yuping, don't come to me again. Didn't you say I don't look like your daughter? That's perfect... I don't want to be one anymore."
"...Are you serious?" Song Qixing asked after a long time.
"Yes." She answered without hesitation.
Song Qixing's hands were shaking, "Okay... Song Yu, you are very nice. You think I don't dare to sign, right?" He grabbed the pen and quickly signed his name. Song Yu stepped forward and signed his name as well.
There were two copies, and Song Yu kept one for himself.
"I'll give you three days to move out of this house immediately. Move far away, to a place where I can never see you again."
Song Yu didn't say a word. Only when Song Qixing got angry and grabbed the car keys to leave, did he gesture to the photo frames on the ground and say, "Please help me take these rubbish away."
In the end, of course Song Qixing didn't bring it, and the only response to Song Yu was a deafening slam of the door closing.
She threw all those things into the trash can that was like a black hole. She stood in front of the trash can with empty eyes. Her tears had all dried up in countless late nights. She turned around and left without shedding a single tear.
On the day they moved from Xu Qiao's house to their new home, the three of them had a hotpot meal in the house as a celebration of moving into a new house. After the meal, Yaya volunteered to wash the dishes.
Xu Qiao and Song Yu sat on the sofa watching TV. He reached out and peeled a grape and handed it to Song Yu's mouth, "What are you going to do over there?"
"Hmm?" Song Yu put the grape into his mouth without blinking, his eyes still fixed on the TV screen, "Which side are you talking about?"
"Didn't they say there was a disturbance at her house?"
"Oh, that." Song Yu bit the grape and spoke a little unclearly, "It's already been solved."
After saying this, he winked slyly at Xu Qiao. "I found five strong men and asked them to do nothing but squat outside their house, smoking, drinking, and playing cards. They were so timid that they didn't dare go out the next day. I made them stay there for a full five days, leaving before dawn. When they left, I told them that if they dared to look for Ya Ya again, they would be kept there for half a month. They didn't dare to say a word. I heard from them that they even handed each of them a cigarette when they left. Their attitude was so respectful."
Speaking of this, Song Yu couldn't help but sigh, "No matter how arrogant a person is, if they meet someone even more arrogant than her, they will be helpless in an instant and will be at the mercy of others."
Song Yu noticed that Xu Qiao had been silent, so she nervously added, "Of course, I don't always do this. I only do this because I have no other choice. I'm not usually someone who advocates violence. I love peace, hahahahaha."
"To deal with special people, of course you have to use special methods." Xu Qiao turned around and said.
Song Yu felt relieved and asked Xu Qiao to peel another grape for her. The grapes were difficult to peel but delicious. After peeling one, Song Yu couldn't wait to put her mouth over it. She aimed at the target but missed. She looked up at Xu Qiao who suddenly took it away and asked, "What's wrong?"
"You're so smart and so good at finding solutions, but what about me? You won't give me a name?"
