Gan Lie walked towards them slowly.
Yu Rou turned around and said to Yu Zhen and Xia Wanru, mother and daughter: "My husband is here to pick me up, so I won't bother you anymore, you guys continue."
Xia Wenlan's eyes seemed to be glued to Gan Lie. When she heard Yu Rou's words, disappointment filled her eyes and she lowered her head slightly.
Gan Lie walked up to them, ignored Yu Rou, and greeted Yu Zhen, "Uncle Yu."
"Well, didn't you say you couldn't come today because of something at the company?" Yu Zhen asked.
Gan Lie glanced at Xia Wenlan. His cold gaze made Xia Wenlan feel awkward, but luckily he only glanced at her once before looking away. "Come and take a look."
Xia Wenlan spoke in an exaggerated manner on the phone, saying that Yu Rou was coming to cause trouble and she was afraid that she would do something excessive, so she asked Gan Lie to come quickly. But now everything is obviously fine, and Xia Wenlan's words were obviously contradicting herself.
But Gan Lie wouldn't say it, so Xia Wenlan was relieved. If everyone knew that Gan Lie was called by her, they would probably say nonsense again.
Yu Rou looked at Gan Lie and said, "Have you finished reading? Then let's go and take me home."
Her tone was the same as the original owner's. She had always been proud and willful towards Gan Lie. Even though they were arguing about divorce the day before yesterday, she could now let Gan Lie drive her with peace of mind.
Gan Lie was already used to it, so he didn't find it strange at all. He came here to clean up Yu Rou's mess. Now that she didn't cause any trouble, everyone was happy. It would be better to send her back to avoid any more trouble.
Gan Lie nodded and said calmly, "Let's go."
Yu Rou raised her eyebrows and smiled, then walked out first.
Gan Lie turned around and said something to Yu Zhen, then followed him.
After leaving the manor, Yu Rou asked her assistant to drive back to the company, while she stood next to Gan Lie's car waiting for him.
Gan Lie glanced at her, then took out the car keys and unlocked the car. "Get in."
His voice was calm and emotionless. Yu Rou said nothing, opened the car door and sat in the back seat.
Gan Lie expected that she didn't sit in the passenger seat.
After getting in the car, Gan Lie fastened his seat belt and looked in the rearview mirror. Yu Rou was taking out a mirror and a tissue to wipe the corners of her mouth.
As if noticing his attention, Yu Rou raised her eyes.
Gan Lie looked away and stopped looking at her.
Yu Rou put away the mirror, sat upright, and asked lazily, "Why are you here? Did Xia Wenlan ask you to come?"
Yu Rou was not excited when she mentioned Xia Wenlan. Instead, she was very calm, with just a hint of coldness in her tone, unlike before.
"Um."
Gan Lie's answer was cold and perfunctory. If it were the original owner, he would definitely be furious.
But Yu Rou smiled indifferently and said, "It seems that she really likes you. She probably wants to meet you."
Gan Lie frowned. There was a hint of jealousy in Yu Rou's words, which made Gan Lie suspect that there was something wrong with his hearing and gave him an illusion.
He did not respond to Yu Rou's words, but looked straight ahead at the road.
Yu Rou stopped talking, leaned back in her chair, took out her cell phone and started playing.
After a long time, neither of them spoke. If it weren't for Yu Rou's phone ringing from time to time, Gan Lie would have thought he was the only one in the car.
It was rare for the two of them to be able to stay together so quietly and harmoniously. Gan Lie couldn't help but be a little absent-minded, thinking about the quarrel last night.
A quarrel that broke out last week caused his love for Yu Rou to cool. Yu Rou told him that she married him just for revenge, she hated him and even felt disgusted with him.
When he had already become cold-hearted and just wanted his life to pass like this, they had another fight yesterday. Yu Rou kicked him out and asked for a divorce again. He agreed without thinking.
Gan Lie felt that his love for Yu Rou had been worn away by their endless quarrels. He could not even hate Yu Rou, only indifference remained.
Gan Lie suddenly broke the silence and said, "When are we going to get a divorce?"
Yu Rou frowned slightly, put down the phone in her hand, and was silent for a few seconds.
Gan Lie's heart was lifted for some reason.
Yu Rou said, "Are you anxious?"
Gan Lie also fell silent. Wasn't it she who brought up this matter? After a long while, he said, "No."
Yu Rou smiled faintly, "Then you set a time, tomorrow? Or the day after tomorrow, I'm fine with either. You know, I'm very free."
Gan Lie tightened his grip on the steering wheel. His eyes were deep, as if there were undercurrents surging, stained with a gray haze.
