Chapter 45: It depends on your performance
After the divorce application is approved, Shen Qingqing still has to go through the formalities with Jiang Zhixun.
He left after New Year's Eve, and at that time the comrades from the Civil Affairs Bureau had not yet returned from their holiday.
Beijing and the Northwest are so far apart. If she misses this opportunity, does she have to wait another year?
How is this possible!
As for the depression that Jiang Zhixun mentioned, Shen Qingqing automatically understood it as that after the divorce, his elders would put pressure on him.
This has nothing to do with her.
After completing the formalities, he can go wherever he wants.
If he was scolded by his elders, that was his own business.
"You said before that you could take a month off."
Shen Qingqing's gaze finally fell on Jiang Zhixun.
She looked serious, with a hint of anxiety hidden in her eyes.
Being looked at by her intently, Jiang Zhixun's heart was filled with ripples.
But considering that she wants a divorce, she hasn't made a clear statement until now, saying that she has changed her mind and will not divorce anymore.
The rippling waves gradually returned to calm.
Jiang Zhixun sneered.
He said expressionlessly: "Depending on your performance, don't get mad at me, I'll stay at home for a few more days."
Shen Qingqing gritted her teeth and suppressed her anger, "Submit your application first."
Chen Shaojie said quickly, "What application? Old Jiang, are you going to apply to return to Beijing?"
After saying this, the expression of the man opposite him turned visibly darker.
No response, continue eating.
When chewing, you have to chew hard, and there is a gnashing taste.
Cheng Jingliang noticed something was wrong and picked up the lunch box, "Let's talk about business first."
He gave Chen Shaojie a look, and the latter reacted and hurriedly followed.
I was secretly worried for Jiang Zhixun.
If this guy doesn't behave himself, he might lose his wife...
Shen Qingqing turned her body sideways, imitating Jiang Zhixun's posture, and looked at him expressionlessly.
After waiting for two minutes, the man still showed no intention of speaking.
Shen Qingqing asked: "Have you thought about it?"
"I don't agree."
Jiang Zhixun replied coldly without even raising his eyelids.
Shen Qingqing's chest rose and fell rapidly several times, and her breathing became heavy. She was angry.
Considering that this was a public place, she could only try her best to control her temper and lower her voice.
"What do you want? You don't want to get married, and you don't want to get divorced. Do you want to make everyone suffer to be happy?"
"Torture?"
Jiang Zhixun chewed on these two words.
His sharp eyes were fixed on Shen Qingqing, not missing any trace of her expression.
She pursed her pink lips with a stubborn look on her face.
Jiang Zhixun looked mocking, "That's what you think, but isn't marrying me what you want?"
Shen Qingqing felt boundless bitterness in her heart. She had not planned anything against Jiang Zhixun.
It is true that Grandpa Jiang is sick.
It is also true that she wants to fulfill the old man's wish.
The mistake is that she really likes Jiang Zhixun, and getting married... is indeed a matter of convenience.
This gave Jiang Zhixun the illusion that it was a conspiracy.
If she could go back on her time, she would never propose the idea of getting married to Jiang Zhixun in the ward in front of so many people.
Without looking at Jiang Zhixun again, Shen Qingqing lowered her eyelashes to hide the tears spreading in her eyes.
"If you feel that was my fault, I apologize."
Jiang Zhixun was furious, and couldn't figure out who was right and who was wrong in that matter.
Shen Qingqing looks weak, but she is actually very proud.
She is also very persistent in things she has decided on.
But in order to get a divorce, she actually took all the responsibility on herself.
Is this marriage really that bad?
Jiang Zhixun's eyes were filled with bone-chilling coldness as he repeated those two words, "Apologize?"
Shen Qingqing took a breath and said, "Knowing that you don't have me in your heart, I shouldn't have thought of getting married, and I shouldn't have proposed to you in front of so many people, putting you in a dilemma."
"I'm sorry. It's my fault."
"We've wasted three years on each other. Can we part ways amicably now?"
She had not had a good life in the past three years.
Even if no one said anything behind her back, those meaningful looks always reminded her silently.
Jiang Zhixun didn't love her, and in order to avoid her, he even ran away to the northwest.
He was gone for three years.
If she hadn't come this time, he might not have returned to Beijing to visit his relatives this year.
Although the elders of the Jiang family didn't say anything, she felt really bad.
I always feel that I have let down the Jiang family for raising me and for forcing away their only child.
This was the main reason why she moved out of the compound.
She wanted to end this marriage and take a breath, otherwise she would develop other problems sooner or later!
Shen Qingqing's tone was already tearful, and she tried so hard to hold it back that her voice trembled.
With Jiang Zhixun's temper, he should have decisively agreed to the divorce.
But for some reason, he just didn't want to nod.
Although he hadn't been home for three years, he never mentioned Shen Qingqing's existence to anyone.
But he had always been aware of his married status.
I have never done anything to betray Shen Qingqing or go against my principles.
Just like Shen Qingqing said, they have already wasted three years, and Jiang Zhixun doesn't want to dwell on it anymore.
He wanted to ease his relationship with Shen Qingqing.
Live a good life from now on, just like a normal couple.
Now they have a marriage certificate, so they can slowly get along with each other.
If I get divorced, I will really have nothing.
Avoiding Shen Qingqing's pleading eyes, Jiang Zhixun said the same thing, "Convince the elders at home first, and then I will consider this issue."
This answer again.
If he really cared about the opinions of his elders, he would not have come to the Northwest three years ago.
It's just making things difficult for her.
Shen Qingqing looked at Jiang Zhixun silently, without getting angry or cursing.
After a few seconds, she stood up and left.
The mood was stable from beginning to end.
Jiang Zhixun frowned. Earlier in the guesthouse, she suddenly asked for a divorce after waking up.
He disagreed, and Shen Qingqing even cursed at him.
Why is she so calm at this moment?
Jiang Zhixun always told Shen Qingqing to stop making trouble, but when she really stopped, he felt even more uneasy.
Decided to give home another call.
If you don't persuade Shen Qingqing quickly, she will really get a divorce!
It was also at this time that Jiang Zhixun realized that no matter whether he had any romantic feelings for Shen Qingqing, he had already accepted the fact in the past three years.
He also regarded Shen Qingqing as his wife.
Every time he heard the word partner, the person who came to his mind was Shen Qingqing.
Therefore, he would never agree to divorce!
The problems between them have not yet reached the point where they are irreconcilable.
If you get divorced lightly, that would be truly irresponsible.
Jiang Zhixun noticed that people around him were looking at him, even though they had no ill intentions, he still felt uncomfortable.
Thinking about how Shen Qingqing had to endure other people's strange looks every day when she lived in the compound, Jiang Zhixun suddenly felt a little breathless.
She was a sensitive person, and she might have cried secretly many times.
There was no response from his friend yet, but Jiang Zhixun could no longer sit still.
Decided to call and ask about the progress.
Only by figuring out what happened to Shen Qingqing in Beijing, did he know where to start and make her completely give up the idea of divorce.
It was his fault for running away for three years.
Jiang Zhixun admitted.
But Shen Qingqing just wanted to just walk away, she was dreaming!
