Chapter 521: A Vain Woman
At the height of the eighteenth floor, the delicate and small diamond drew a bright silver light in the night sky.
Su Changhai stood there in a daze.
But he was not angry with Bai Lan. Instead, he looked confused and innocent, with a hint of pity:
"Ayue?"
Ayue.
Jiang Ningyue.
That was Bai Lan's name for the first half of his life.
After leaving Su Changhai, no one called her name with such affection and nostalgia anymore.
Bai Lan still remembered that at that time, she used the most vicious and cruel words she could think of in her life to hurt Su Changhai.
"Are you done?" she asked.
Su Changhai's kneeling position on the ground froze.
"You've put yourself through this long and tedious ritual, just to impress yourself. I've endured this impatience to listen to you finish, and it's been incredibly hard."
Bai Lan suppressed her tears and replaced her face with an expression of contempt and disgust.
"You're right. I have nothing when I'm with you."
"I really can't endure this kind of hardship for even one more day."
"You said you'd get a promotion and a gradual salary increase. Oh, how long will that day take? By then I'll be old and faded!"
Su Changhai was caught off guard.
After a long pause, he said anxiously, "Ningyue, I know you've suffered these days. But I'm also working hard. Give me a little more time..."
"I can't wait any longer, let's get a divorce."
"Ayue, are you kidding me?" Su Changhai was stunned for two seconds, and a smile uglier than crying appeared on his face.
He still couldn't believe that the woman he loved so much would say such words to him.
"Or... did I do something wrong to make you unhappy? Tell me and I will change. I will change everything you don't like." Su Changhai pleaded.
Bai Lan snorted coldly and asked contemptuously:
"You did nothing wrong, your mistake is that you are a poor boy.
"That diamond ring of yours is only one carat, right?
"Recently, the CEO of a new energy company is pursuing me. Do you know what he gave me when he first met me?
"A ten-carat blue diamond from South Africa, worth $50 million,
"Do you know how much it is in RMB?
"Oh, how could a poor person like you, who has to live at the bottom of society all your life, know this? This is money you will never be able to earn in your entire life.
"The boss also said that a woman like me should be worthy of a sapphire like this, not a cheap one bought from the market for a few dollars!
"You worked so hard, and what you bought is not as good as what others casually give away. Su Changhai, everyone has their own destiny. Some people are born with a destiny, and the life they will lead in this life is destined. I don't want to live such a hard life with you."
A speech, like a machine gun,
Su Changhai's flesh and blood body was beaten into a bloody sieve.
He looked at her in disbelief, as if he was looking at a woman he didn't know.
But he didn't know that his strange look made Bai Lan's heart bleed!
He questioned, "From the day you met me, you knew what kind of person I was and what kind of life I would lead. If that was the case, why did you stay with me in the first place?"
Bai Lan raised her proud head, as proud as a princess.
And Su Changhai is the speck of mud at her feet:
"At first, I was too naive, thinking that love could satisfy one's hunger. But how can one be satisfied with just water? After seeing good things, I realized what I wanted. You can't give me what I want.
"The boss wanted to immigrate and asked me if I wanted to go with him. He said that if I was willing to go, he could help me with all the paperwork, and he would also give me a villa abroad so I could have a place to live and give me unlimited money every month... I agreed and will leave the country next month."
Bai Lan thought that in Su Changhai's eyes, she must have been very mean and vicious at that time.
After hearing her words, Su Changhai was stunned for a long time.
It was as if I couldn't understand the sentences she strung together.
After a long moment, he smiled bitterly and said, "So you've already decided to leave me. All this time, you've just been playing along with me."
Bai Lan swallowed the bitter taste in his throat and said in a cold tone, "People go to high places, and water flows to low places. Changhai, don't blame me."
Su Changhai didn't know what he was thinking, but suddenly he burst into laughter.
His laughter made the walls of the unfinished house vibrate.
Finally, he laughed so hard that tears came out:
"How could I blame you? People always strive for higher things, and water always flows to lower places. It's understandable that you have higher aspirations."
His ridicule was like a knife, piercing Bai Lan's heart.
He finished laughing, then calmed down. His eyes were so cold they could freeze someone: "Have you ever thought about what would happen to our daughter if we divorced?"
"Nannan..." Bai Lan's heart ached even more. "I'll leave Nannan to you. That boss doesn't like children, and I don't want to upset him. I also want to start a new life of my own, and I can't bring a child born with another man with me."
"Very good, that's what I mean. I won't let Nannan go with you. I don't want her to become like her mother, vain and greedy."
Bai Lan said coldly: "It's good that you can let it go and not get entangled. I hope you will meet the right person in the future. I wish you happiness."
After saying that, she turned and walked out, leaving the new house that had not yet been renovated.
Bai Lan first met Su Changhai through her identity as a dance teacher.
All along, she had only used this ordinary identity to interact with him.
In his eyes, she was just an ordinary person.
But how could he know that she was carrying a heavy burden.
Bai Lan went downstairs in tears and disappeared into the night.
A month later.
The day came when Bai Lan was about to leave.
Originally, she wanted to leave quietly, but in the end, she couldn't bear the longing for her daughter, so she couldn't help but return to the home where she used to live with Su Changhai.
But she didn't get to see her daughter that day.
"Where did you hide the child? I just wanted to see her one last time before I left."
"Since you're so heartless and heartless as to abandon your daughter, why are you pretending to want to see her one last time? Could someone as hard-hearted as you really be reluctant to part with your own child?"
Su Changhai's attitude was cold and resolute. "I'm going to hide Nannan now and won't let you see her. In the future, I will also hide her so that you will never see her again in this life."
Bai Lan knew she had let Su Changhai down, so she didn't argue with him. She let him vent his emotions and said to him, "You're right. Since I've decided to let go of the past, I'm mentally prepared to no longer have anything to do with you and your daughter. I just hope you can be nicer to your daughter, take good care of her, and raise her up."
"Oh, I'm afraid I'll disappoint you." Su Changhai said, "I won't raise our daughter myself."
