Chapter 213: Poaching 5 Fight, fight is better! It will lead to divorce...
Zhou Juan's world collapsed.
After kicking the door open, the scene that appeared before her made her doubt that she and Xu Wei were completely over.
Look, Chu Lingyi is lying in front of the table, gently and considerately helping Xu Wei wipe the rice grains from the corners of his mouth.
The weather was hot and everyone was wearing light clothes. What's more, she chose a short-sleeved shirt, so her arms were swinging right under Xu Wei's nose. Perhaps if Xu Wei lowered his head, he could still see the spring scenery at the neckline.
As for Xu Wei, he hadn't returned home all night and the office was hot, so he was only wearing a vest, with his neck, arms and collar all exposed.
If they were a little closer, they would have had physical contact.
No, no need to get any closer. Right now, with the action of wiping the rice grains, Chu Lingyi's hand has already touched Xu Wei's face.
Even the bang of kicking the door couldn't stop Chu Lingyi.
She was just stunned for a moment, turned around to look at Zhou Juan, and immediately drooped her eyelids, looking pitiful, not knowing who she was doing this for.
Zhou Juan was so angry that her head was buzzing. She took two steps at a time, rushed forward, pulled Chu Lingyi away, and gave her a big slap in the face.
Xu Wei was furious. He didn't expect Zhou Juan to be so reckless and beat people without any reason.
He quickly scolded Zhou Juan, but Zhou Juan slapped him back in the face.
After beating the man, Zhou Juan picked up the phone and called her mother: "Mom, you have to come now, right now, immediately, or your daughter will be forced to death!"
Zhou Ying was frightened early in the morning. He got up quickly, washed and asked for leave without stopping, and caught the 7 o'clock train.
On this side, Zhou Juan held the microphone, ready to continue calling people.
Seeing this, Xu Wei quickly grabbed the microphone. If Zhou Juan called the school leaders or Director Yuan, his future would be over.
So no matter what, he would not allow Zhou Juan to make a second call.
But Zhou Juan was angry and refused to give him the microphone no matter what. For a moment, the couple was like two monkeys who had forgotten to evolve, going back and forth, completely losing their image.
Chu Lingyi's blood boiled with excitement. It would be great if they could fight!
If they fight, it will all be over. It will end in divorce, and she will reap the benefits!
But what if the two of them are unwilling to give their all? After all, they have been married for several years.
Why not fan the flames? She stood between the two of them, pretending to mediate: "Teacher Xu, calm down. It's all my fault. Your mother-in-law is very strict with you. You should quickly admit your mistake to your lover, although I don't know where I went wrong. Hey, I just came to bring you some breakfast. After all, I troubled you again yesterday. It's all my fault. Can I kowtow to her? Stop fighting."
As she said this, she was about to kneel down and kowtow. Xu Wei became even angrier when he heard this. He was not a son-in-law, so why should he be afraid of his mother-in-law?
He had a clear conscience about this matter. There was clearly nothing going on between him and Chu Lingyi, so he was not afraid of his mother-in-law coming over to question him.
He quickly pulled Chu Lingyi up and said, "Lingyi, get out of the way. This is none of your business. Some people have dirty hearts and see everything as dirty!"
As he said this, he was about to pull the telephone wire, which made Zhou Juan so angry that she picked up the teacup on the table and hit his hand directly.
The severe pain stimulated Xu Wei's brain. He hardly thought, but held the landline with all his strength and used his arm to block Zhou Juan. With a snap, he cut the phone line and pushed Zhou Juan away at the same time.
After all, Zhou Juan was a lesbian, and there was a huge gap in physical strength between them. She couldn't control her body for a moment and staggered back a few steps. Seeing this, Chu Lingyi pretended to help her, but unexpectedly stretched out her foot and tripped her, causing Zhou Juan's center of gravity to fall completely backward. She lost her balance and bumped into the empty desk behind her, falling to the ground and unable to get up.
The severe pain made her brain dizzy, and the noisy white light filled her consciousness.
She could hear nothing, see nothing, and her mind was filled with only one thought: all that she owed Xu Wei was paid back in this fall. She no longer owed him anything, and no longer had to endure the frustration of looking at his sour face.
The back of her head was burning with pain and she struggled to get up, but her whole body was sore, weak and numb that she could only lie there like an abandoned dead fish, rolling her eyes over and over.
Chu Lingyi didn't expect that her kick was so accurate. Look at how arrogant Zhou Juan is now.
But she didn't want Xu Wei to see her smugness, so she quickly pretended to be worried and asked, "Sister-in-law, are you okay? Why are you so careless? Hey, you just have a bad temper. Now, you hit your head. It hurts, right? Come, let me help you up."
But Zhou Juan was so weak that Chu Lingyi couldn't even pull the woman up.
At first, Xu Wei thought she was pretending and ignored her. It wasn't until he saw the blood coming out of Zhou Juan's brain that he nervously pushed Chu Lingyi away and rushed over: "Juan'er! Juan'er, why are you bleeding? Does it hurt? Don't scare me, I'll take you to the hospital!"
Xu Wei picked up Zhou Juan and carried her horizontally, without paying any attention to Chu Lingyi, and rushed to the hospital.
After Zhou Juan entered the emergency room, he staggered and fell to the ground, burying his head in his knees, asking himself in pain and despair, what happened between the two of them?
Wasn't everything fine before? Why has everything gotten so out of control since last year?
The mother-in-law will be here soon. When she sees her precious daughter injured, she will probably make a fuss.
In the previous farces, he was either in the right or both of them were at fault, but Zhou Juan was at fault more.
However, this time, there was no way to judge based on past experience. After all, he had never attacked Zhou Juan before. Even if he didn't do it on purpose, it didn't make sense this time.
There was so much blood on the back of his head and the weather was so hot. If anything happened to Zhou Juan, I'm afraid their whole family would be doomed.
He was very regretful and held his head in pain, hoping that God would have mercy on him and not let him face the most terrible consequence.
*
At the publishing house, Yao Zhizhi found that Zhou Juan did not come to work and sighed silently. She didn't know whether Zhou Juan did it on purpose or had something to do and didn't have time to ask for leave.
I hope she's not being deceitful like before.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Zhou Juan still hadn't arrived, but Yao Zhizhi's phone rang.
Xu Wei asked for leave on behalf of Zhou Juan, crying: "I'm sorry, she's injured and hasn't left the emergency room yet."
"What?" Yao Zhizhi was shocked. "She was fine after get off work yesterday. I even praised her manuscript. Wasn't she very happy when she went home? How could this happen?"
"I didn't go home last night. This morning, Chu Lingyi came to the office to bring me breakfast. She misunderstood me and we had an argument. I accidentally... Editor-in-Chief Yao, please come here. My mother-in-law will be here soon. No matter what the result is today, I will not escape." Xu Wei took a deep breath and hung up the phone.
Yao Zhizhi was dumbfounded. It seemed that this problem could not be solved by just her persuasion.
He had no choice but to leave the office and go to the outer workshop to inform Chu Lingze: "Your sister did a great job! Zhou Juan was almost killed by her! Hurry up, go back and get the money. Your family must bear the medical expenses. When Aunt Zhou Ying comes later, remember to behave properly."
Chu Lingze was confused. "My sister? I told her last night, and she promised me she wouldn't mess with Zhou Juan. Besides, didn't she go out to buy groceries this morning? She was so happy when she came back. I haven't heard of her causing any trouble."
"What? Can I lie to you?" Yao Zhizhi suddenly felt a little disgusted. This Chu Lingze was really too much. Zhou Juan was lying in the hospital, but he still thought his sister was innocent.
It’s better not to marry such a man, otherwise his wife will also have to suffer from Chu Lingyi’s anger.
With a cold face, she urged, "Stop talking nonsense and go back to get the money! The more the better!"
Chu Lingze felt uncomfortable under the gaze of his colleagues. He clenched his fists, quickly got up from his workstation, turned around and walked out.
Yao Zhizhi asked Xiao Jiang and Xiao Song to help look after the editorial office, as she might not be back until the afternoon.
He went to the third floor and scolded President Chu for a few words before rushing to the hospital.
When they got there, Zhou Juan had not come out yet. Zhou E was sitting on the waiting chair with Xu Wei. Xu Wei was relieved to see Yao Zhizhi coming.
I quickly stood up and explained what happened that morning.
Yao Zhizhi was furious: "Did she come to see you last night?"
"Well, I don't know how she knew I was in school." Xu Wei was still confused.
Yao Zhizhi rolled her eyes. "Have you become stupid from working in the fields all day? How else would she know? She must have gone to your house and saw you weren't there. No, Xu Wei, are you really that stupid, or are you just unhappy with Zhou Juan and too lazy to use your brain? Let me tell you, I used to hate Zhou Juan even more than you did, but she's really changed a lot now. It's you, on the other hand, who has a deep prejudice against her? If you really don't want to live with her anymore, divorce her as soon as possible and stop torturing each other!"
Xu Wei didn't say anything. Now it wasn't a question of whether he wanted to live with him or not, but whether Zhou Juan would live with him or not.
He lowered his head and looked at his Liberation shoes, his face full of melancholy.
Yao Zhizhi sighed, "When my brother introduced you two to a blind date, I never thought you'd become enemies. Even I thought you were a match made in heaven. Don't you feel any responsibility for what's happened?"
Xu Wei opened his mouth to refute, but Yao Zhizhi interrupted him directly: "I have already scolded Zhou Juan for the previous matter. Today I will only talk about Chu Lingyi. Ask yourself, are you wrong?"
"I was wrong, but Zhou Juan has such a bad temper, who can stand her!" Xu Wei didn't want to be completely passive, so he had to find some excuses for himself.
Yao Zhizhi was quite disappointed. "No matter how bad she was, she took care of you wholeheartedly while she was pregnant. What about you? She just returned to work not long ago. Can't you give her a little support and encouragement and guide her in a good direction? You are a teacher, but are you so reckless when it comes to your students?"
Xu Wei was unable to refute for the moment and had to remain silent.
Yao Zhizhi handed Xu Wei the manuscript that Zhou Juan had approved yesterday. "This is her article for the general public. This magazine recently opened a column about marriages on the rocks. She spoke from her own experience, citing the problems she'd encountered in her marriage with you over the past few years. She summarized her own shortcomings, and deeply realized the importance of work. She decided to be a modern woman who balances career and family. At the end, she even apologized to you from afar for her previous willfulness and nonsense. She was very happy after get off work last night because I praised her. She must have wanted to share it with you, but you didn't go home!"
Xu Wei took the manuscript and read it silently. When he reached the end, his eyes were red. "I don't know... I was just angry that she didn't keep her promise, but I didn't want to quarrel with her, so I didn't go back. I wanted to calm down with her for two days..."
Yao Zhizhi was helpless. If Chu Lingyi hadn't interfered, perhaps the couple would have gotten over the adjustment period and returned to the sweetness of their honeymoon period.
I couldn't help but sigh: "I asked her if she had feelings for you. She said of course. So I ask you the same question now, do you still have feelings for her?"
"Last night, Chu Lingyi came to see me, and I persuaded her to leave. Do you know what I was thinking at the time?" Xu Wei wiped away his tears. "I thought, even if I quarreled with Zhou Juan, I couldn't do anything to let her down. As for Chu Lingyi crying on my chest before, I admit that I didn't push her away. It was my fault. I was angry at the time and didn't think too much. And yesterday, I wanted to fight at the publishing house. It was also my fault."
"What's the point of you telling me all this? If you had slapped her yesterday, not only would it be over for you two, but all three of your families would have been finished. While you are blaming Zhou Juan for her bad temper, can you reflect on yourself? You were so biased that you even went to the publishing house to quarrel with her? You are really not much more sensible than her. It's not surprising. You are the only child in your family and you are used to being spoiled. From this point of view, you and Zhou Juan are really a perfect match. Both have the temper of a young master and a young lady. Let's not blame each other." Yao Zhizhi poured a basin of cold water on him and asked Xu Wei to calm down.
Don't think you are any better than Zhou Juan. You are just another fool.
Xu Wei staggered and fell into the waiting chair, holding his head in pain.
Yao Zhizhi didn't say anything else. She looked at her watch and stared at the door of the emergency room.
Finally, at 11:10, the door opened.
The doctor and nurse came out with an operating cart. "The patient has severe brain congestion. Three large needles have been removed. The patient's intracranial pressure is still very high, and there is severe edema. He needs to be hospitalized for observation for a period of time."
Xu Wei's face was pale. He followed the operating cart to the ward and helped carry Zhou Juan to lie on the bed.
As soon as the incident was over, Zhou Ying rushed over. Seeing her daughter with a head full of white gauze, she was furious. However, she still gave Xu Wei enough face. After persuading others to leave and closing the door, she slapped Xu Wei twice in the face.
There were two crisp and loud sounds.
Xu Wei didn't dare to be stubborn anymore, and he knelt down with a thud.
