"So you came back for the child?" Yu Rou walked up to him, looked up at him, and said in a sarcastic tone.
Their bodies were almost touching, and Gan Lie's eyes were filled with complex emotions. After a long moment, he said, "You can take this as the reason."
"Oh? Then I have to remind you, don't waste your time. I said, the child is mine alone, and I will raise it alone after it is born." Yu Rou looked away and said lightly.
"Do you want to take revenge on me so much? Why? You said that you married me to take revenge on me, so what about divorce?" Gan Lie's voice was low, and hatred was in his eyes when he looked at her.
"Why? Don't you know it yourself?" This scene had happened in the original owner's memory, but the original owner did not express his true thoughts. Instead, he stabbed Gan Lie in the heart with his words, extinguished his love for her, and even made him become indifferent.
"I've said it many times, my parents divorced because they no longer loved each other. If you insist on tying them together, it will only make both of them unhappy. It has nothing to do with me." Gan Lie's tone was full of powerlessness and indifference.
Yu Rou glared at him, "So you kept their divorce a secret from me?"
"I didn't hide it from you. I just found out at that time and was still hesitating whether to tell you when you called me." Gan Lie frowned.
"Okay, what about Xia Wenlan? What's your relationship with her?"
After Yu Rou said this name, Gan Lie's expression became a little irritated. He sighed and said, "I have nothing to do with her."
"She likes you and has pursued you..."
"So what?" Gan Lie interrupted her with a frown, "Did you say you were marrying me to get revenge on us? By "we" you mean me and Xia Wenlan?"
His tone was cold and full of anger.
Yu Rou paused, as if at a loss for words, but soon, she raised her chin again and stared at him, refusing to admit her mistake. "So what? When she was pursuing you, didn't you go every time she called you? Didn't she also invite you to the wedding a few days ago? If you say it has nothing to do with her, will I believe you?"
Gan Lie was stunned for a few seconds after hearing this, then he laughed at himself, "You really don't know who I went there for? Yu Rou, do I have to dig out my heart and show it to you so you can know who is in my heart?"
Yu Rou was stunned, startled by his sudden increase in voice.
The atmosphere became awkward.
Gan Lie didn't know why he said such a thing. He took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
"We're divorced now, what's the point of you saying all this? Even if I misunderstood, it's because you didn't explain it clearly. Besides, you knew she liked you, yet you still answered her calls and were always there when she called. Aren't you afraid that I would misunderstand?" Yu Rou gritted her teeth and said dissatisfiedly.
Gan Lie felt extremely bitter in his heart, as if a bowl of coptis water had been spilled, and the bitterness permeated every part of his body.
He thought he had expressed himself clearly enough over the years to make Yu Rou believe his sincerity.
Yu Rou's questioning made him not know whether to be happy or sad. He didn't know whether she was just unwilling or really cared about him, or simply didn't believe him at all.
Gan Lie couldn't figure it out. He just felt that he had been hurt by her and didn't know how to explain it to her.
He closed his eyes to hide the emotions in them. When he opened them again, he had calmed down. "You've never said these words before."
Yu Rou lowered her eyes, "Yes, it's all in the past. There's no point in talking about it now."
Gan Lie turned his back to her, let out a long breath, and whispered, "Let's go eat first."
…
Aunt Li waited in the restaurant for a long time before she saw them come out. She looked back and forth between them, observing their expressions.
You can tell at a glance that they are in a bad mood, their expressions are very cold, and Aunt Li is too embarrassed to say that she is going to get off work.
She looked at the time and took a step forward hesitantly.
Yu Rou sat down at the dining table, looked at her, and said softly, "Aunt Li, you should go back first. It's getting late."
Aunt Li looked at her worriedly and said, "Madam, let me serve the soup for you. I didn't serve it to you because I was afraid it would get cold outside."
"No need, let me do it, you can go back." Gan Lie said lightly.
Aunt Li was stunned for a moment, as if she understood something. She smiled and nodded, then took her bag and left.
Yu Rou watched Gan Lie go to the kitchen and bring out a bowl of soup.
She whispered, "You don't have to do this."
Gan Lie glanced at her, said nothing, and gently placed the bowl in front of her.
Yu Rou hesitated for a moment, but still picked up the spoon, slowly blew on the soup to cool it down, and took a sip.
Gan Lie also picked up his chopsticks and ate quietly.
In Gan Lie's memory, it had been a long time since the two of them sat together and had a meal so quietly.
Yu Rou seemed to have changed, yet also seemed to have not changed. She was still as stubborn and willful as ever, but there was a steadiness and gentleness in her eyes and eyebrows, and she became even more dazzling.
The meal was quite enjoyable. Yu Rou ate a full bowl of rice and drank two small bowls of soup, which surprised Gan Lie.
After eating, Yu Rou lazily leaned back in the chair, squinting slightly, as if she was sleepy again. Gan Lie was not used to her indifferent attitude, but it was better than arguing with him.
"Do you really want to stay tonight?" Yu Rou suddenly asked without opening her eyes and speaking in a nonchalant tone.
"Um."
"Then where are you going to sleep? The guest room is not cleaned." Yu Rou opened her eyelids.
Gan Lie didn't answer, but stood up and cleared the dishes from the table.
Yu Rou watched him walk into the kitchen, skillfully unbutton his cuffs, roll up his shirt sleeves, put on an apron, and stand by the sink, turning on the faucet to wash the dishes.
