Chapter 266: The CEO's White Moonlight (20)
"If you've been busy lately, don't come over. Look at you, you have dark circles under your eyes." Shi Yi took out a steam eye patch from the refrigerator and put it on him.
"I've wronged you." Qu Xiangran closed his eyes and lay on the sofa, enjoying this rare moment of comfort.
His mother still disagreed with his father's division of property. Both parties hired lawyers to handle the divorce. The news spread outside, and some people with ulterior motives immediately made a fuss about the company's business. If he hadn't been on guard, he would have been tricked by some people with ulterior motives. Because of these things in the company, he had no time to deal with other things. Now this little time was also squeezed out by him.
"Say this." Shi Yi patted him on the head, "What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you. The large supermarket is downstairs of the apartment building. You can just make a phone call to buy vegetables and they will deliver them to you. It's very convenient."
"I don't want to eat anything." Qu Xiangran grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards him, "As long as you stay with me, it's fine."
He was really too tired during this period. He had to consider family matters and company matters. Fortunately, she didn't make a fuss, which made him feel much more at ease.
"I also want to be by your side all the time." Shi Yi took off her shoes and lay beside him, hugged his waist tightly, and said gently: "When you were not around, I always wondered what you were doing. I wanted to call you but was afraid to disturb you, so I could only wait for you to call me back."
"You would never say these words before." Qu Xiangran was stunned for a moment after saying this, and quickly hugged her in his arms.
His Shi Yi has really changed a lot during this period of time. He felt sorry for her, but also liked her changes.
"I was afraid at that time. I was afraid that if I said it out loud, you wouldn't like me enough." Shi Yi leaned in his arms, her hands on his chest, feeling his heartbeats, and said slowly: "But now I think I should say it. Because I am sure that you love me. It was you who gave me the courage to say it out loud."
Qu Xiangran gently kissed her forehead and promised: "Don't worry, when I am done with this busy period, I will formally propose to you. You are my destined bride, and I will never let you suffer any grievances."
"Okay." Shi Yi looked up at him, her hands gently stroking the stubble on his cheeks, and a quick flash of heartache in her eyes, "I'll wait for you, don't work too hard."
"I've kept all your instructions in mind." Qu Xiangran grabbed her hand and kissed it gently.
If getting along with Shi Yi was easy and pleasant, then Qu Xiangran was restrained and constrained when he returned home.
One was his mother and the other was his father, both of whom were his closest relatives by blood. Living under the same roof without saying a word, and hating each other at the same time, he, as a son, didn't know how to deal with himself.
He didn't want to interfere in the affairs between his parents, but he, as their son, was the only bond between them. They were all trying to get his opinion.
What opinion could he have? If he expressed any opinion, one of them would accuse him of favoring the other.
"Yu Zhen, can you finish the bad things you did yourself?" Qu Weilai, who was reading the newspaper, saw his son come in and nodded to his wife who was sitting opposite him and had not yet divorced.
"Qu Weilai, you cheated first, I don't know what position you are accusing me of. If it weren't for you, would I have gone to that woman for trouble? Because of that woman, I will be in fear for the rest of my life. I will suffer for the rest of my life because of that woman's unborn child." There was resentment in Qu's mother's eyes and anger in her heart.
"Yu Zhen, I will not give up a penny of my property, because you are not worth giving up. Do people like you have a conscience? I don't believe it at all. You only want to control others and make them do things according to your wishes." Qu Weilai put down the newspaper, stood up, pointed at her nose and said.
"Qu Weilai, I advise you not to push your luck. You and that woman destroyed my marriage and made me a laughing stock in the circle. I will never give you so much money to let you live freely outside." Qu's mother peeled off her newly done nails and glared at the man in front of her, her husband who had not yet divorced. He had caused her so much pain, and her whole life was in pain because of him.
"Yuzhen! If you talk nonsense again, believe it or not, I will hit you." As soon as Qu Weilai said this, Qu Xiangran pulled his mother away.
"Qu Xiangran, let me go, I want to confront your father. It was him, he ruined my life. Why doesn't he admit it." Qu's mother looked back at Qu Weilai frequently. If eyes could kill, Qu Weilai would have died several times.
Qu Xiangran pulled his mother all the way to the room and locked the door.
"Qu Xiangran, what are you going to do?" Qu's mother looked at her son who was more than a head taller than her, with fear in her eyes.
Qu Xiangran knelt down in front of her and said calmly, "Mother, let's get a divorce."
"Why, why?!" Qu's mother said sharply, "Why did he cheat on me and still ask me to help him? My life has been ruined by him, and I will never let him get what he wants."
"Mother, ask yourself, are you happy in this relationship?" Qu Xiangran lowered his head and looked at his mother's feet. There was a thin blood mark on her ankle. He clearly remembered that it was his mother who cut it herself when he was eight years old.
"Even if I am not happy, I will not help those two bitches. Why can those two bitches abandon my happiness? I will never allow such a situation to happen. Absolutely! Absolutely not!" Qu's mother yelled at the top of her lungs, so loud that Xiaohua, who was coming downstairs, was startled.
"Mother, you have already sacrificed the first half of your life for this unhappy marriage. Are you going to sacrifice the second half of your life?" Qu Xiangran growled and looked up at her, his eyes filled with tears, "Mother, please let yourself go and let father go."
It was the first time that Qu's mother saw her son crying for her. She pursed her lips in silence.
"Mother, you and father were not suitable for marriage from the beginning because you did not have love as a foundation. Now, father wants to be free, why don't you fulfill him. And fulfill yourself."
"You must have had a hard time these years." Qu's mother reached out and wiped away the tears that overflowed from his eyes, but tears in her own eyes continued to drip.
They are an unqualified pair of parents. The one who has harmed the most is their own son.
Forget it, just for the sake of their son, fulfill Qu Weilai and let themselves go.
Qu Weilai, who was outside the door, heard the sobbing in the room and secretly reddened his eyes.
