Wencai didn't even turn around, continuing to quickly search for something in his hands. "I'll call Lao Wang and ask him to send it back to me. This front page is a big deal..."
"No need--" Before Wencai could finish his words, Shumei shouted guiltily and interrupted him.
Shumei's unusual cry surprised Wencai a little. He stopped looking through the phone book, turned around, and stared at Shumei with a puzzled look.
Shumei was a little at a loss because of Wencai's questioning expression, and the word "guilty" was written on her face.
“I—I—”
Wencai is not a fool, and Shumei can't lie, so he immediately understood the reason.
Wencai put down the microphone, sat back on the sofa, and stretched out his right palm, "Give it to me!"
"Take-take what?" Shumei pretended to be confused and asked Wencai hesitantly.
Wencai's face was filled with curiosity. It was Shumei who aroused his determination to read the newspaper. "If you can't lie, then don't lie. What kind of monster is in the newspaper that you are afraid of seeing it?"
Shumei clutched her pocket tightly, trying to persuade Wencai to stop reading the newspaper he shouldn't be reading. "Wencai, stop reading. It won't have any effect on you if you read one less newspaper. I bought some excellent pig intestines and will make your favorite braised pig intestines for lunch today."
She tried to persuade Wencai with a playful smile, but unfortunately it didn't work.
Wencai didn't give in, and his hand remained raised. Shumei, unable to dissuade Wencai, had no choice but to hand the crumpled newspaper in her pocket to Wencai.
Wencai took the newspaper ball and carefully unwrapped it, complaining to Shumei, "Look at you, you've almost turned this good newspaper into a cabbage roll."
"Wencai, there are many beautiful girls in this world. When your leg injury is healed, I will take you back to our village and let you see the beautiful girls who were born and raised there."
Shumei sat next to Wencai and started to give him a shot of prevention before Wencai saw Qingke's photo.
Wencai heard Shumei say this and smiled disapprovingly, "What? Are you trying to introduce me to someone? I, Li Wencai, am not so bad that I need you to introduce me to someone, am I? It's all about fate when it comes to love. What's meant to come will come."
Shumei wanted to say more, but unfortunately she no longer had the chance.
Photos of Qingke and Zhengsheng appeared in front of Wencai, and the smile on Wencai's face stopped abruptly.
He stared at the newspaper intently, with an expression as if he wanted to cry but couldn't.
Seeing Wencai like this, Shumei didn't dare to say another word. She just looked at Wencai quietly. She didn't know how Wencai would react the next second.
Wencai read the contents of the newspaper carefully for a long time. Suddenly, he laughed out loud, "What a great marriage between business giants! What a match made in heaven for a talented man and a beautiful woman. Haha..."
As he laughed, he tore the newspaper in his hand into pieces and threw it into the air.
Suddenly, he stopped laughing and held his head with his hands. From the sounds he made, it could be heard that he was both crying and laughing.
"Wencai, are you okay? Think positively. All good things must come to an end. Let go of what you should let go of. You two couldn't be together because you were not destined to be together. Your happiness will come sooner or later. You've just recovered, so take care of yourself."
Wencai couldn't understand why the relationship he and Qingke had had for so many years couldn't withstand the weight of this man she had just picked up from nowhere?
Men also have tears, but they don’t cry easily until they are very sad.
Wencai also needed a shoulder to lean on at this moment, and he would get hurt too. After hearing Shumei's words, he suddenly raised his head and threw himself into Shumei's arms, his expression extremely painful. Although his eyes were wet, he still didn't cry in the end.
At this moment, he realized that he had completely lost Qing Ke. Qing Ke would never stick to him or act coquettishly in front of him again; and would never bring him laughter and joy when he was lonely again.
Shumei seemed to feel the same way and was so sad that she wanted to cry. Like a mother comforting her child, she gently stroked Wencai's back and lent her arms to Wencai without reservation.
Suddenly there was a loud thunder outside and heavy rain began to fall.
Listening to the sound of thunder and rain outside, Wencai felt deeply moved.
Is it possible that even God is sympathizing with me? Seeing my sadness and grief, he is shedding tears for me?
Only those whose hearts are in the rain can hear the sadness mixed in the sound of rain. This sound is tear-jerking, and the more you listen to it, the more sad and upset you can't help but feel.
It was raining, so Shumei had to let Wencai go, got up to collect the clothes, and close the doors and windows upstairs.
At this time, the company's vice president called and reported the company's situation to Wencai. Wencai also recorded and analyzed the situation in an orderly manner and assigned tasks to the vice president.
Seeing that Wencai's mood had stabilized, Shumei went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
Wencai was watching TV absent-mindedly. Finally, he couldn't help it. He sneaked out while Shumei wasn't paying attention and rushed into the pouring rain.
Shumei heard the door close and hurried out of the kitchen, calling out a few times. Wencai wasn't there, nor did he respond. She searched upstairs and downstairs, even checking the bathroom. Finally, after confirming that Wencai was no longer home, she grabbed an umbrella and hailed a car at the gate of the complex, rushing to Qingke's house.
Wencai stood outside Qingke's house, letting the rain pour down on him. His entire body was soaked, like a drowned dog.
He shook the iron fence of Qingke's house violently and shouted Qingke's name desperately.
"Keke, Keke, please open the door. I have something to ask you. Could you please open the door for a moment? It won't take up too much of your time. Please..."
