Chapter 267: The CEO’s White Moonlight (21)
Qu’s mother relented, and the divorce process progressed quickly. On the day the divorce agreement was signed, Qu Weilai officially moved out of the house.
After losing her husband, Qu’s mother’s control over her son became more and more abnormal. At first, Qu Xiangran felt sorry for her and gave in to her in small matters. Gradually, the situation changed, and Qu’s mother wanted to tie him to her side all the time. Qu Xiangran began to resist. He could not reverse his mother’s control, nor could he change her control. All he could do was leave that home and come back to visit once a week. But his mother was still his mother. He doubled Xiaohua’s salary and asked her to take good care of her. He hoped that the separation of time and space would bring some changes to the two of them.
Faced with her son’s resistance to her, she thought of An Yihuan, who had moved out of the house a long time ago. She wanted An Yihuan to continue to disrupt Qu Xiangran and Shi Yi’s relationship, but after a phone call, she found out that An Yihuan had already found her ideal partner and the two were engaged. Moreover, An Yihuan's fiancé is Han Ning, the son of Mrs. Han, who has always been competing with her for the limelight in the circle. She was very angry, but there was nothing she could do. The Han family and the Qu family are comparable. If she deliberately poaches someone, she doesn't know how people in the circle will criticize her.
In the end, only Qu's mother was left in this huge mansion.
After Qu Xiangran successfully proposed to Shi Yi in the company, he officially moved to the apartment where Shi Yi lived and began to live together. He thought very carefully. There will definitely be friction in the lives of two people, but as long as they can overcome these problems and run-in with these problems, then their marriage will usher in happiness.
He imagined it very logically, but the development of cohabitation surprised him.
He and Shi Yi had no contradictions at all. Shi Yi was like another self, understanding the meaning behind every word and every look of his. Many years later, he saw the word "souimate" (soulmate) on the Internet, thinking that this was about him and his wife.
Ji Ran recovered from her illness and was going abroad.
Qu Weilai was afraid that Ji Ran would refuse, so he did not give her the money in person, but secretly transferred it to her name. Ji Ran didn't want Qu Weilai's money, because the damage he brought to her could not be compensated by this money. When she was about to look for Qu Xiangran, Qu Xiangran came to the door.
"Sit down." Ji Ran gently and politely asked him to sit down, as if there was no conflict between them. In fact, there was no conflict between them. Qu Xiangran had never had any opinion on her. Even though she was the ultimate fuse that destroyed his illusion of a perfect family.
"I have seen you from a distance." Qu Xiangran took the water from her hand calmly. It was precisely because of this that he was skeptical of his mother's words.
"Your father also showed me your photo." Ji Ran stroked her skirt and sat opposite him, her eyes warm and nostalgic, "That was the first time your father was honest with me. In the photo on the phone, you were wearing a middle school uniform, holding a certificate in your hand, and looked like a young and sunny student. It reminded me of the easy time I spent studying at school. Although such time was short."
"He is not a good husband, nor a good lover, but he is indeed a good father." Qu Xiangran's eyes were filled with apology, "I'm sorry, it's my mother who hurt you."
Ji Ran knew that he came to apologize, but she didn't want to accept his apology. Therefore, from the beginning to the end of this matter, he was not wrong at all. The people who were most wrong were her and Qu Weilai. So she shook her head and smiled and said, "It's all over. Things have happened. What's the point of being right or wrong? When life comes to the end and you think about it again, there is only one sentence, 'Forget it'."
Qu Xiangran knew that the pain in her heart would definitely not disappear because of an apology, but his apology to her was real.
"You don't have to look at me like that. Have you ever heard of this saying, no snowflake is innocent in an avalanche? What happened between me and your parents has nothing to do with you."
Ji Ran's expression and tone were so gentle, so gentle that Qu Xiangran felt guilty looking at her. He seemed to understand why his father liked her.
"I'm glad you can come. I'm also glad that you don't hate me." Ji Ran blinked and continued, "When will you and Shi Yi have your wedding?"
Qu Xiangran didn't expect her to change the subject so quickly, and to change the subject to himself. He was stunned for a few seconds and replied, "At the end of the year."
His wedding ring was made by Ms. Jian Yi, an international diamond master. Only slow work can produce fine work. It was designed at the end of the month.
"I'm really happy to see you like this." Ji Ran curved his eyes, and his eyes were like a crescent moon with a lake blue color. "You came to me this time, not just to apologize, right?"
Qu Xiangran smiled and praised, "Sister Ji Ran is really smart."
"Do you want to ask about Shi Yi?" Ji Ran looked at him with curved eyes, tilting his head slightly, as if thinking about what to tell him.
"I was going to ask, but now I don't have any doubts." Qu Xiangran replied with a faint smile. He believed that Shi Yi would tell him about herself one day.
"You are very good." Ji Ran spared no effort to praise the young man in front of him, "Shi Yi will be happy to know. Girls always don't want their partners to hear about themselves from other people."
After this short chat, Qu Xiangran and Ji Ran had a better impression of each other, and the conversation became more casual like friends.
"When you leave, do you want me and Shi Yi to see you off?" Qu Xiangran asked.
"No, I will leave here whether I see you off or not. I have no relatives in this city for a long time, and now I have nothing to worry about." Ji Ran's eyes were lost, and then he quickly let it go.
She had no choice at the beginning, so she didn't choose, but now she has a choice and can no longer repeat the old path.
"I hope you won't alienate me and Shi Yi because of my parents."
"Is this what you really think?" Ji Ran looked at him in surprise.
"Of course." Qu Xiangran took out a black card from his pocket and handed it to her, saying frankly: "I know you definitely don't want the money my father gave you, but I hope you won't refuse this gift from Shi Yi and I."
"You're right." Ji Ran's eyes fell on the black card, hesitating for a few seconds, and did not take it. Instead, he said as if he was relieved: "I appreciate your and Shi Yi's kindness, but these things have nothing to do with you, so I'll use your father's money. At least he owes me." He owes me two lifetimes.
"Then please accept your father's compensation and live a good life abroad, and find someone who loves you again." Qu Xiangran politely stood up and left.
Ji Ran's nose suddenly felt a little sour, and he covered his mouth and nose with both hands to prevent himself from being discovered.
