Chapter 13 If You Had Promised Me You Wouldn't Be So Rude
Qiao Bei smiled and declined: "I have a place to live, so I won't come back to live here."
Qi Lianxin smiled immediately.
"It's fine this way. Young people want their own space and don't like living with their elders. We understand and support that. We'll still be a family in the future, so come back and visit whenever you have time."
Qi Lianxin's words sounded very nice on the surface.
Qiao Bei was also putting on a show.
"I will."
Fu Yao snorted, "Where do you live? Did you ask my brother for a house? A large flat? Or a villa? Qiao Bei, you should have some sense of shame. Don't be so shameless as to ask for something that's not yours."
Qiao Bei: "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."
"you!"
Fu Yao stood up and was about to have a big argument with Qiao Bei, but was held down by Fu Song.
"What are you doing? You're everywhere! Solve your brother and sister-in-law's problems yourself, don't make things more complicated."
Fu Yao was dissatisfied: "Why don't you let me say it? Qiao Bei is shameless. She used such dirty means to marry my brother. Now she wants to divide our Fu family's property after the divorce. This money is too easy to make."
Fu Song held the dignity of a patriarch and said, "I told you not to say anything, but you're not listening, are you?"
"dad!"
"It's only right that we give Qiao Bei some compensation. Don't make things more complicated. Let your brother decide how they discuss it."
Qi Lianxin also agreed: "Your father is right, your brother should make the decision on this matter himself, we should not interfere."
Fu Yao looked at Qiao Bei with eyes that seemed like she wanted to eat her.
Qiao Bei sat there calmly, watching their heated discussion.
It seemed as if this matter had nothing to do with her.
When they had almost finished arguing, she said, "Nothing, I'll go back first."
She didn't expect Fu Tanxiu to give her a penny now.
Qiao Bei didn't even look at their expressions, he just stood up and left.
Behind him, Fu Yao said, "Mom and Dad, did you see that? Qiao Bei is so arrogant. Why would I give money to someone like her? It's not worth it."
Fu Song and Qi Lianxin looked at each other and said nothing.
…
Three days later, Fu Tanxiu came back.
He seemed very busy and had been making phone calls in the study since he came back.
Qiao Bei took a shower and paced in front of the study door in her plush pajamas.
She waited until the talking inside stopped before knocking on the door.
A deep and pleasant bass voice came from inside: "Come in."
Qiao Bei pushed the door open and went in.
Fu Tanxiu leaned back in the leather chair with his eyes closed, rubbing his eyebrows with his slender fingers.
It seems that he has encountered some troubles.
Jobe paused.
I thought to myself, this man was born to be a child of destiny. He built Huisheng into a big city in just three years and is now the most powerful man in Longcheng.
He can make a name for himself without relying on the Fu family.
Extraordinary abilities.
What troubles could such a person have?
She knew.
Fu Tanxiu’s worry is probably that he can’t be with Bai Yueguang.
And she is the culprit.
She stood in front of the desk and said, "Fu Tanxiu, don't worry. We will get divorced right away, and you can be with Meng Yuci."
Fu Tanxiu moved his hand away, opened his eyes, and felt frighteningly cold.
"Qiao Bei, are you sick? Why are you talking to her nicely?"
Seeing that he was in a bad mood, Qiao Bei didn't argue with him. Of course, the most important thing was that she wanted to divorce Fu Tanxiu as soon as possible and didn't want to make him unhappy.
"Fu Tanxiu, I'm serious. I'm not kidding you. I'm not teasing you. I'm telling you this very seriously. One month is up. Tomorrow is Monday. Let's go and complete the divorce procedures."
Fu Tanxiu: "Get lost!"
Qiao Bei felt that this person was unable to speak properly and became angry.
She walked around behind the desk, grabbed his shirt collar, and yelled fiercely, "I want a divorce! I have to get a divorce tomorrow!"
Qiao Bei's voice was very loud.
Fu Tanxiu's face was even colder than before.
"Okay, tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, as you wish."
Qiao Bei was stunned for a moment, then let him go and smoothed out his wrinkled shirt.
"If you had promised me earlier you wouldn't have been so rude."
Fu Tanxiu spat out one word again: "Get out!"
This time, Qiao Bei left quickly and closed the door behind him.
"Don't work too hard. Go to bed early. You have to get up early tomorrow morning."
The key is to wake up early.
Watching the smiling face disappear at the door, Fu Tanxiu pressed his eyebrows again.
Qiao Bei skipped back to his room and rolled around on the bed with joy.
Fu Tanxiu passed by her room and heard cheerful singing coming from inside. He almost went in and beat someone up.
Qiao Bei was too excited and fell asleep almost at dawn. He set an alarm for fear of oversleeping.
As soon as the alarm rang, she got up immediately.
When she went downstairs and didn't see Fu Tanxiu, her heart skipped a beat.
This guy won’t stand her up, right?
She took out her cell phone and called Fu Tanxiu, but the ringing lasted for a long time but no one answered.
Qiao Bei had no appetite for breakfast. He ate a few bites and took a taxi to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
She arrived early and the Civil Affairs Bureau was closed, so she bought an egg-filled pancake on the roadside and ate it while sitting in front of the bureau.
Everyone who came to work looked at her.
"Hey, what a beautiful girl, she must be here to get married."
The older woman who had been handling the divorce registration looked up and said, "Wrong, she's here to get a divorce."
Other colleagues: “How do you know?”
The divorce registration lady said, "She was here last time. She was so beautiful, with those big eyes that were especially striking. And her husband was incredibly handsome, too. I remembered him. So, so soon? Is the one-month cooling-off period up?"
The eldest sister muttered to herself and followed her colleagues into the gate.
When Fu Tanxiu got out of the car, he saw Qiao Bei sitting on the steps, eating a piece of bread in a very unpresentable manner.
He just watched from a distance.
Jobe has changed.
He couldn't see the passion she had for him in her eyes.
This is so strange, just like a faucet with water flowing and suddenly someone turns off the switch.
Can a person's feelings be taken back just like that?
He doesn't understand.
Qiao Bei filed for divorce and stopped pestering him, so logically he should be happy.
But for some reason, he couldn't be happy.
Moreover, he didn't have to wait so long, but he took a month to get a divorce from Qiao Bei.
His explanation to himself was that marriage was not a joke. Although he did not love Qiao Bei, since he had met her and married her, he had to be a responsible man.
Qiao Bei can be willful, but he can't.
Since there is a one-month cooling-off period, they should all calm down, especially Qiao Bei.
He gave her time to think and repent.
But now it seems that Qiao Bei doesn't need it.
Qiao Bei looked up, saw Fu Tanxiu, and waved to him with a smile.
Her smile was so bright, her peach blossom eyes were upturned, and her whole body was emitting a dazzling light.
Fu Tanxiu stared at her for a long time, a gentle smile appearing on the corner of his mouth that he himself didn't even notice.
Fu Tanxiu finally smiled. Qiao Bei was very happy. She trotted towards him with a smile and stood in front of him.
"Fu Tanxiu, you look so beautiful when you smile. Smile more in the future and don't have a stern face."
Of course, she would never see his smile again.
He should smile at Meng Yuci.
That was the woman he loved.
Fu Tanxiu stared into her eyes, his Adam's apple rolling, and said, "Qiao Bei, we don't have to divorce."
