Chapter 122 Sister, can I ask you a question?
"Xiao Cheng, you are not honest!" Chen Jianxun said with a smile: "If the girl knew you said this, she would be so sad!"
Ma Yun also joined in the fun, saying, "Xuyuan, a beautiful lady is a good match for a gentleman."
"If you see someone you like, why not chase him?"
Listening to these words of encouragement, Cheng Xuyuan could only smile and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I just want to study hard now."
"After all, I'm still a student."
"I'm a student too!" Chen Jianxun said with a smile, "You wrote a poem and then said you don't plan to communicate with me anymore. You'll regret it later."
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said nothing more.
Seeing Cheng Xuyuan remained silent, Li Yun asked, "Xuyuan, what is the name of this poem?"
Cheng Xuyuan said: "A flowering tree!"
"That's a good name." Chu Yueqin said, "Xuyuan, it's not easy to meet a good girl you fall in love with at first sight, you must cherish her!"
Cheng Xuyuan knew very well that this topic could not be continued.
If he continued talking, these people would have no idea where he was going. Therefore, he just smiled and said nothing to Chu Yueqin.
Seeing that he didn't want to talk about this topic, everyone said a few words and then changed the subject.
As the saying goes, when you meet a good friend, a thousand cups are not enough. The party at Niu Wanjia's home did not end until after eleven o'clock in the evening.
Chu Yueqin was a woman who loved cleanliness. After seeing off all the guests, she cleaned the table while talking to Niu Wanjia.
"Lao Niu, Xiao Cheng is so serious all the time, but I didn't expect him to be so romantic. It's time for this young man to find a partner."
At this point, Chu Yueqin suddenly thought of something and asked curiously, "Why do I remember that you seemed to have told me that Xiao Cheng was married?"
Niu Wanjia touched his head and said, "Did I say that? I can't remember clearly!"
"But I think Xiao Cheng should not be married, otherwise, why haven't I seen his wife in such a long time?"
"Maybe he was afraid that we would ask him about the division of the house, so he made up an excuse."
Chu Yueqin nodded and said, "No one in our building has ever seen Xiao Cheng's wife. I think what you said is almost right."
"But the poem he wrote is really good!"
While Cheng Xuyuan was drinking at Niu Wanjia's house, Shen Yunliang and Shen Yumo were sitting opposite each other.
Shen Yunliang rubbed his head and felt a little pain in his forehead.
I'm old, and I drank more than half a pound of alcohol. The aftereffects were quite strong, and I still feel a little uncomfortable now!
I was feeling a little unhappy today, so I drank a little more. I will definitely not drink so much next time.
However, compared with the physical headache, what bothered him more was how to tell his daughter about this.
"Yumo, I went to see Xiao Cheng at noon today and chatted with him. I drank too much without realizing it." Shen Yunliang said in a deep voice, picking up the water his daughter poured for him.
Shen Yumo didn't expect that his father was drinking with Cheng Xuyuan.
She was stunned for a moment and said, "Dad, do you have something to do with him?"
"Something's going on!" Shen Yunliang said, "You can't get a divorce for the time being!"
Shen Yumo was even more surprised now, and asked quickly: "Dad, what's wrong? I've already got the divorce certificate!"
Shen Yunliang looked at his anxious daughter and said in a deep voice, "Cheng Xuyuan is Xu Lingyun, the author of When Happiness Knocks on the Door. Did you know about this?"
Shen Yumo hesitated for a moment, but still nodded and said, "Yes, I know."
"Then you should have told Dad as soon as possible!" Shen Yunliang said, "If your uncle Peng Xueli hadn't come to see me today, I wouldn't have known about this."
"Your Uncle Peng said that the novel The Pursuit of Happyness has received widespread attention from all walks of life."
"Moreover, the higher-ups also highly value this spirit of hard work in the face of setbacks, so if word gets out that the author of The Pursuit of Happyness is divorced, it would have a very bad impact."
"So your divorce can't be completed now!"
After hearing what his father said, Shen Yumo didn't know what to say.
She originally thought that the obstacle between her and Cheng Xuyuan in the divorce was Cheng Xuyuan's work, but she didn't expect it was because of this.
"Have you told him about this situation?" Shen Yumo asked softly.
"Yes." Shen Yunliang said, "I also asked him what he thought of your marriage."
Hearing this, Shen Yumo was stunned for a moment, then asked: "What did he say?"
"He said that he had thought it through. A marriage without love is just torture for both of them."
"So, he will definitely get a divorce."
"Since we can't go through the formalities now, let's just sign a divorce agreement first."
"This can be considered as freeing each other from the constraints. We can wait for another year or so, and then go through the formalities when we can."
After Shen Yumo heard what his father said, for some reason, there was a hint of something in his eyes.
She felt a dull pain in her heart. She felt inexplicably sad or lost. Of course, it wasn't because she couldn't go through the divorce procedures, but...
But she quickly suppressed her emotions.
"Dad, let's sign a divorce agreement first."
Shen Yunliang looked at his daughter's unpredictable expression and smiled, "Okay, I'll draft a divorce agreement and you can sign it, and then have Cheng Xuyuan sign it."
"Then you will both agree to dissolve your marriage."
At this point, he said solemnly: "Yu Mo, Dad knows that you are a strong and good child."
"But Dad still wants to tell you that what's happened in the past is in the past."
“We must look forward in our lives.”
"You have to find your own happiness, and Xiao Cheng can also find his own new happiness."
Looking at his father's expression, Shen Yumo felt a warmth in his heart.
No matter what, my father supports me.
Just when she was deeply moved and wanted to say something to her father, the door was pushed open and Li Yufei walked in with brisk footsteps.
I don’t know if it was because of the cold wind outside, but her face was a little red at this moment.
"Sister, Dad." Seeing the two people in the room, Li Yufei greeted them.
Shen Yunliang smiled and said, "Yufei, what did you do today? Why did you come back just now?"
Li Yufei was just about to answer when she heard Li Xueling say, "What did I tell you yesterday? You just ran around all day! Let me remind you again, if it happens again, I will definitely not let you go out before school starts."
"Mom, I understand." Li Yufei knew her mother's temper very well, so she quickly said, "Mom, I just went to a classmate reunion with Liang Xiaolu."
"Don't worry, I promise I won't do this again next time."
Listening to her daughter's assurance, Li Xueling snorted and said, "If it happens again, don't blame me for being rude."
When the younger daughter came back, Shen Yunliang and Li Xueling left the sisters' room together.
Shen Yumo sat in the chair, still thinking about what his father had just said.
Cheng Xuyuan suggested signing an agreement first.
It can also be considered as a relief for each other.
This is what I wanted! But why are you so anxious to end the relationship with me? What are you thinking?
Some long-lost memories keep coming back to my mind. Although some of these memories are not so beautiful, but...
"sister……"
Li Yufei called out twice before Shen Yumo came to his senses.
She stroked her fallen hair and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Sister, what are you thinking about? Why are you so engrossed?" Li Yufei sat down opposite Shen Yumo and asked with a smile.
Shen Yumo hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm not thinking about anything, just some things about work."
"Sister, can I ask you something?" Li Yufei hesitated and asked with a smile.
Shen Yumo was very fond of her younger sister. She smiled and said, "I am your sister. If you have any questions, you can ask me."
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Hearing Shen Yumo say this, Li Yufei immediately said: "Sister, it's not my business, it's my friend's."
"My friend...she received a poem today. It was...very well written."
"But the person who gave her the poem wrote it while drunk."
"My friend is now worried about whether the person who wrote this poem has a crush on her."
"Or...or maybe it was because I was drunk and acted impulsively."
After hearing Li Yufei's careful words, Shen Yumo looked at his sister with a strange expression.
Looking at this young face that seemed so delicate that it looked like it could be squeezed to produce a stream of water, she smiled and did not expose her little thoughts. She asked seriously, "Then first of all, we need to see what kind of poem your friend received!"
"Poetry is about expressing one's thoughts. If I don't read this poem and you ask me to analyze it blindly, where should I start?"
Li Yufei hesitated for a moment and then said, "Sister, I copied down this poem, take a look."
As she spoke, Li Yufei took out a carefully folded piece of manuscript paper from her pocket and handed it to Shen Yumo.
"How can I make you meet me at my most beautiful moment
For this, I have prayed to the Buddha for five hundred years, asking the Buddha to let us have a relationship in this world.
The Buddha then transformed me into a tree , growing beside the road you must pass by..."
Originally, Shen Yumo didn't take this poem to heart.
She originally thought it was just an ordinary love poem.
But as soon as she read the beginning, she was stunned.
This poem is really great.
Reading this poem is like listening to a story told in a leisurely manner, which makes people feel moved and immersed in it unconsciously.
How could a young girl who is not well-versed in the world resist such a poem!
Shen Yumo's gaze subconsciously turned to his sister.
She knew that her sister was a naturally romantic girl and had no resistance to such love poems.
She immediately continued reading, and at the end, she couldn't help reading it.
After reading the last sentence, Shen Yumo fell into silence.
At this moment, she seemed to be savoring a story.
“This poem is very good.”
"Needless to say, my friends all say that this is a very good poem." Li Yufei's expression contained a hint of pride.
"You said that the man was drunk when he gave it to you. Can you tell me, did he write the poem before and give it to you after he got drunk, or did he write it after he got drunk?" Shen Yumo asked calmly with a hint of seriousness.
Li Yufei said: "Sister, he wrote this poem after he got drunk."
Shen Yumo suddenly asked: "Yufei, who is this person? Do I know him?"
