Chapter 69 Leaving
Lin Jingchuan took the divorce agreement and left home.
The moment the car drove out of the basement, the hot sunlight of the summer afternoon hit his eyes.
There was no one on the street, and the thick leaves of the sycamore trees drooped, looking lifeless in the distorted air.
He took a deep breath and drove out of the community.
Half an hour later, he arrived at a small high-rise building in the neighboring Huangpu District.
I entered the code to open the door, and a young woman came to greet me.
Lin Jingchuan raised his eyes, and the other party raised an eyebrow at him: "Is everything handled?"
Lin Jingchuan nodded, and Zhang Hui showed him the furniture in the house and his luggage: "I've asked someone to arrange everything for you. This sofa is all leather, these tables and cabinets are all mahogany, and the electrical appliances are all big brands."
Lin Jingchuan didn't respond.
Zhang Hui's gaze followed the lines of his tense hands to the document in his palm. She could vaguely see the word "divorce". She understood why he looked so distant at that moment.
The woman smiled. "Oh, you're divorced, and your assets are almost gone. You've moved from a 150-square-meter apartment in the city center to a 70-square-meter suburban hut. How do you feel about that?"
Lin Jingchuan's face was cold: "Don't come here again."
Zhang Hui said "oh" and spread her hands: "Okay, actually I don't want to care about it, it's my dad who forced me to come."
She picked up the Hermès bag on the sofa and waved at him: "Although you got divorced today, I sympathize with your feelings at the moment, but don't forget to come to work tomorrow."
After saying that, she turned and left.
During the period of divorce, Xu Mo found it difficult to describe her feelings.
It’s not like she was particularly sad. She still went to work at her own pace every day. She worked from nine to five for Zhao Tingyu. After work, she would go home to interact with Dudu and watch TV.
It seems no different from the days before the divorce.
Her recent mental state made her revisit the movie "My Altay" that she had watched before. The oil painting-like scenery and the pure emotions between people always make people feel healed and warm. Occasionally, when she was watching the TV and it was getting exciting, she subconsciously turned her head to look at the seat next to the sofa and found that there was no one there.
The gap between the beauty on TV and reality made her feel even sadder.
This discomfort made her cry late at night and get drunk for a long time.
Until one day, she saw a tweet from a public account she once followed.
Cheng Shin Group changes leadership! Former Landa Group Vice President Lin Jingchuan takes over.
It is said that Director Zhang has always admired this young man and only recently poached him from Lan University. This move is not only necessary for the strategic development of the Zhengxin Group, but Director Zhang also intends to match this young talent with the Zhengxin Group's daughter, Zhang Hui. Insiders have revealed that the two may hold a wedding this year. You should know that Miss Zhang is Director Zhang's only daughter. She is over 30 and has never married. Director Zhang has always been worried about this. If they can be reunited this time, Director Zhang can finally put his mind at ease...
Xu Mo's fingers tightened around the phone, and her joints turned white.
It turns out that the divorce was not because he had any difficulties, but because he wanted to find another good partner.
She turned off her phone with an indifferent expression.
Looking at the casserole for making soup in the kitchen, she found a big bag at home, put all the cooking utensils used by Lin Jingchuan into it, and then threw it into the trash can in the community.
What a bastard, she is blind.
After doing all this, Xu Mo asked for leave from Zhao Tingyu and bought a flight to Altay that night.
The next morning, she boarded a flight to Altay, Xinjiang.
The moment the plane broke through the clouds, light streamed everywhere, and she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep in the floating weightlessness.
There were clouds in the sky and grassland on the ground. She stood on the grass by the river in Hemu Village, opened her arms, and let the breeze blow across every inch of her skin. In the distance were spruce forests, brown horses, and Tuva wooden houses. The vast sky and earth made her forget worldly troubles for a short time and immerse herself in this paradise.
Zhao Tingyu called several times and she had to answer.
"Momo." Zhao Tingyu's calm voice was tinged with anxiety. "You've taken such a long leave. Where are you going? I went to your house this morning and knocked on the door, but no one was home."
"I'm going out to relax."
"Relax?" Zhao Tingyu paused. "I know you've been feeling down lately since your divorce from Lin Jingchuan. Going out for a walk might be helpful. But when will you be back?"
Xu Mo lay on the grass. The fragrance of the grass made her squint slightly. She tilted her head and touched the greenery. She said, "I don't know."
"Don't you know? But you have to know that the company still has a lot of things that need your attention... If you leave for too long, what will happen to the company's operations?"
Xu Mo smiled and said, "Brother Tingyu, my past experience doesn't really match your current business development direction. During my time in the company, I didn't do anything, and you didn't need me to do anything. You just felt that I was unemployed at the time and worried that I would be unhappy if I couldn't find a job, so you helped me find something to do. You were kind-hearted, thank you, but you don't have to worry about me."
She looked up at the azure sky above her head, where cotton candy-like white clouds drifted slowly. She said, "I didn't come out to relax because I was sad. I just wanted to find a place where no one was around and think seriously about what I want."
“…”
"Where did you go to relax?" Zhao Tingyu asked in a low voice.
Xu Mo said, "A very far place."
"Are you alone? Isn't Xu Shiying with you?"
"Don't worry about me." Xu Mo said, "I found a very good B&B here. The owner is very nice. I plan to stay here for a while."
Zhao Tingyu was silent for a long time: "Call me if you have anything."
Xu Mo slept on the grass for a long time. When she woke up, she felt a little dizzy. When she returned to the B&B, the owner, Xiao Ye, came over with a bowl of salty milk tea and said with a smile, "You're back. I made some fresh milk tea. Do you want to try it?"
Xu Mo took it and drank it. The warm and mellow touch relaxed her body and mind. She smiled at Xiao Ye and said, "Thank you."
Xiao Ye asked, "Where are you from?"
"Guess."
"Hmm, the way you speak seems to have a Cantonese accent, and your skin is very white and delicate. Are you from Guangdong?"
Xu Mo nodded: "You guessed right."
"Are you here for tourism? Alone?"
"Yes. Come and relax."
"Oh..." Xiao Ye thought for a moment, "In recent years, many urban white-collar workers have come here to relax. The day before you came, there was also a tall and handsome male tourist, also alone, who said he came here to relax..."
Xu Mo said: "I'm going back to my room to rest first."
Xiao Ye looked at her back and called her: "Wait——"
Xu Mo turned around and Xiao Ye said, "There's a bonfire party at the grassland square tonight. Do you want to go and see it?"
