I racked my brains, trying to explain this mess of a relationship to Jiang Lai in the simplest terms.
It ended in failure.
I was too lazy to think about it, so I continued to clean up while explaining everything to Jiang Lai.
Finally, she understood.
Give a summary: "So he is Fu Qichuan's future brother-in-law?"
I was stunned, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Who else can think as fast as you?"
Lu Shiyan must have asked his aunt to clean the house in advance, and it was almost spotless.
We packed our clothes and collapsed on the sofa.
Jiang Lai glanced at me and said, "Didn't you say you had something important to talk to me about? What is it?"
I handed her the information Lu Shiyan had given me. "I want to start my own business. Are you interested in joining me?"
"Of course!"
Her eyes lit up with excitement.
I laughed. "So, when you told me last time at the hospital that you were quitting and that you had a plan, you were lying to me?"
"Isn't your plan more to my liking?"
Jiang Lai said with a smile as he read the information. After listening to my story about Nancy, he became more serious. "So when are you going to start?"
I curled my lips, "Right now."
There are some things that once you want to do them, you can't put them off for a day.
Jiang Lai's personality is even more impetuous than mine. When he heard it, he clapped his hands in agreement.
After we had lunch, we discussed various matters.
She was responsible for selecting the office and deciding the location of the company, and I was responsible for preparing the preliminary matters.
According to preliminary calculations, as long as the apartment in Linjiangyuan is sold, the initial investment funds will be more than enough.
The next day, I contacted the real estate agency and put the house in Linjiangyuan up for sale.
Late at night, Fu Qichuan called and asked in a bad tone, "You want to sell the house?"
"right."
“You are not allowed to sell it.”
The man's voice was strong and unyielding.
I looked up from my work and stretched my neck. "Reason? If I remember correctly, the apartment is in my name. It's clearly written in the divorce agreement that it belongs to me."
He sneered and asked, "Where have you moved to?"
I was silent for a moment, then said calmly, "It has nothing to do with you."
"Is Lu Shiyan's house more comfortable to live in than the one I gave you?"
The man's voice was indifferent, yet it made people feel inexplicably frightened.
I frowned, "Are you still having people follow me?"
It can be said to be a coincidence that he found out about my whereabouts at the first time.
Twice, that's unacceptable.
On the other end of the phone, the man seemed to sigh and said in a gentle, half-coaxing, half-persuasive tone: "Come out and open the door for me."
䜭䜭 is what I have been looking forward to the most.
Just like the most ordinary couple in other families, they coaxed me from time to time and spoke to me in a nice tone.
It is enough to make me happy for a long time and soothe all my tempers.
But now, my heart was as quiet as a stagnant pool of water. I looked out through the cat's eye and saw his flawless facial features.
He lowered his head slightly, looking a little tired.
Probably because of the matters of Xisi and Wenfang, he was busy enough.
He wants to be both a domineering boss and a filial son.
I pursed my lips and said, "You go ahead. Fu Qichuan, since the house has been given to me, I should have the right to decide."
There was a crisp "click" sound coming from outside the door, like the sound of a lighter, "Need money?"
"yes."
"How much?"
“It’s hard to say, but selling the house is enough for now.”
Fu Qichuan said in a low voice, "Don't touch the house. I'll transfer the money to you now."
I flung the door open, full of words I wanted to vent, but when I met his scarlet eyes, I suddenly couldn't utter a single word.
I feel less energetic than usual.
Perhaps knowing that I don't like the smell of cigarettes, he put out his cigarette and looked at me with his dark eyes, "Can I come in?"
Not only did it smell like cigarettes, but it was also mixed with the smell of alcohol.
"Have you been drinking?"
"Um."
He lowered his eyelashes and said, "I drank a few more glasses with He Ting."
"oh."
I nodded gently, "Then you... go to bed early!"
As for him and I, it's better not to have any further contact.
"I just want to be here with you."
He was as paranoid as a child crying out for a toy and was about to come in.
I subconsciously blocked him and stepped back. He suddenly fell backward and staggered a few steps. I was startled and hurried forward to steady his body.
Did you drink a few more glasses?
With his alcohol tolerance, a few drinks wouldn't have led to this.
Besides, he has time to go drinking with He Ting, saying that the matter of the Fu family has been almost resolved... Maybe, they are really going to marry into the Shen family.
Everything was going so smoothly, what else was there worth him drinking so much?
But before I could think about it, the man lay on top of me, buried his head in the crook of my neck, and said in a deep voice: "Wife, I feel uncomfortable, really."
I slowly clenched my palms and tried to push him away, but I was afraid of pushing him down. I felt a headache. "I, I'll call Qin Ze to pick you up."
"I don't want to leave."
He suddenly put his arms around my waist, making me tense up instantly.
It was the most common position when I was aroused in the past, but now it gives me scalp trouble.
All my rationality was clamoring to tell me that this was not right.
I took a deep breath, "Fu Qichuan, let go!"
"Um……"
He seemed to have fallen asleep on me, and even his weight had increased considerably.
Fortunately, he was not dead asleep, and he was still able to use some strength when I moved him home.
After throwing him on the sofa, I breathed a sigh of relief.
I patted his face, "Fu Qichuan?"
There was no movement.
Slept peacefully.
I picked up my phone and went to the balcony to call Qin Ze, wanting him to come and move the big Buddha away.
He called several times in a row.
No one answered the call.
It's late at night, Uncle Cheng must be resting.
I looked up at the man in a suit, who looked cool and noble even when he was asleep, and I was overwhelmed.
【Nanzhi, happy birthday, I wish you all the best. 】
[Aruan! Happy Birthday! I love you, you will always be my favorite!]
Just when I was feeling annoyed, two WeChat messages that had been coming in every day for years popped up in the early morning.
Only then did I vaguely realize that today was my birthday.
Just as he was about to read the news, Jiang Lai's phone popped up, "How is it, am I number one?"
"Always second."
I feel a little better.
Jiang Lai pretended to be unhappy, "Lu Shiyan is number one again, right?"
"Um."
I nodded.
Over the years, only she and Lu Shiyan would send messages on my birthday on time.
I looked at the man on the sofa, and my heart sank.
He never remembers my birthday.
Even for a blessing, I have to ask for it myself.
What a pathetic and ridiculous marriage.
"Well, I won't argue with him. No one is as quick as a man who has been single all his life."
Jiang Lai said something with a double meaning, then smiled and said, "How are you going to celebrate? In the past few years, you've been waiting for your ex-husband to celebrate with you, but you were always disappointed. This year, you're getting divorced, so he's definitely not around anymore. Should we go out for dinner together, or come to your house to celebrate with you?"
I glanced at Fu Qichuan and curled my lips.
This year, the human figures appeared much more actively than in previous years.
However, Jiang Lai was also upset because he didn't want to do it late at night, so I didn't mention it. I just said, "I have to go to a dinner party with someone tomorrow. I guess it's unlikely that I can spend the next day happily with you."
When I agreed to Zhou Fang the day before yesterday, I completely forgot about what happened yesterday.
