Chapter 250: The Only Condition for Divorce
Sungai Gardens is as usual at night, and the hour hand slowly moves to the 10 position.
On the sofa in the living room of room 2802, the woman who had been sitting for more than half an hour was obviously impatient.
She swept her eyes to the man opposite, and saw him calmly put up his legs, his slender fingers tapping on the computer keyboard, and his voice was unhurried in the quiet air.
As soon as he came back, Mu Li claimed that he had documents to read, and he had to deal with them immediately, so Lin Qing waited endlessly.
Mu Li's fingertips tapped on the keyboard, and the appearance of concentrating on work was something Lin Qing hadn't seen for a long time, she told herself that she couldn't be soft-hearted, but she couldn't resist the man sitting in front of her with such a swagger.
Lin Qing is not easily impatient, but she is becoming more and more upset at this time, she glanced at the man again, and the two cold gazes did not divert the man's attention.
The man had already noticed her look, and he was even more unhurried to type on the keyboard, his reason was also legitimate, this document did need to be handled by him personally, but it was not urgent.
In short, he didn't lie either.
As the clock ticked past ten o'clock, the subtle sound of the second hand swinging reminded them that it was late at night.
Mu Li finally set his eyes on Lin Qing's face, met her clear eyes, his fingertips did not stop, his gaze shuttled between the computer screen and Lin Qing. The conversation between the two enters the eardrum from time to time, and it is a little lingering to cater to the gentle night.
Lin Qing clasped his hands together and put them on his knees: "Can you start?" ”
The man stared at the computer screen: "What are you anxious about?" ”
Lin Qing's thin eyebrows furrowed, and his voice gradually lost patience: "I'm in a hurry, in a hurry." ”
"It's going to take its time." Mu Li didn't look up, as if he saw a key point, his voice was a little careless, "I focus on the enjoyment of the process, understand?" ”
Lin Qing looked at the clock on the wall, she had been sitting on the sofa since she came in, her legs were a little numb: "How long do you want me to wait?" ”
Only then did the man lift his face from the screen, and an ambiguous smile appeared in his eyes: "It's only ten o'clock, do you want it?" ”
"Or will you have to wait until twelve o'clock?"
Mu Li was noncommittal: "Aren't you afraid that the sooner you start, the longer I will delay the time?" ”
Lin Qing stared at the man's scorching black eyes, and clearly saw the ambiguity burning in his eyes, and she suddenly came back to her senses, and the conversation between them seemed to have a little bit of ** flavor.
"Mu Li, I'm here to talk to you about divorce."
Mu Li wiped his lower lip with his fingertips, and put his hands behind his head into the sofa: "Of course I know, isn't this what we are talking about?" ”
Lin Qing has a hard time telling, and she is destined not to win when she competes with this man.
"yes, so can we start talking now?"
Mu Li moved the computer away from his lap and patted it to look up at her: "How do you want to talk?" ”
Lin Qing asked rhetorically: "How are you willing to divorce?" ”
Mu Li's eyes seemed to be playful, more of a deep and deep look, Lin Qing couldn't look into his eyes, he only felt that he was in a deep fog.
"Do you really have to get a divorce?" Mu Li's voice suddenly sank, as if he was forbearing, "No matter what happens, no matter if Orange Orange needs a father, no matter if there is still a possibility between us?" ”
"Yes, I want a divorce, I must." Lin Qing excluded everything he said, in her opinion, it was impossible.
Mu Li's thin lips were pursed, the crystal chandelier above his head cast an orange-yellow halo, his slender legs folded, and his fingers tapped lightly on his knees.
After a long time, his low voice broke the silence: "Okay, I promise you." ”
Lin Qing could barely believe his ears.
The man's voice then sounded again: "However, if you want a divorce without hindrance, you must promise me one condition, which is the only condition for me to agree to the divorce." ”
Lin Qing stared at the man for a moment, as if she was afraid that he would regret it, she nodded hurriedly: "You say." ”
"Three months," Mu Li stretched out three fingers and raised them to Lin Qing's eyes, every note between his thin lips was charming and seductive, "Take Chengcheng and move over to live with me for three months, and when the time comes, if you still insist on divorce, I will definitely not say a word." ”
Lin Qing's expectant expression turned cold for a moment, she looked at the man, and only then did she silently warn herself in her heart that no matter what harsh conditions the man said, she would not hesitate to agree.
But less than a second had passed, and she couldn't even pronounce a syllable.
Mu Li's gaze wandered over her, his slender legs had stood up, and he pointed to the door with one hand in his pocket: "If you don't agree, you can leave now." ”
In other words, once you leave now, there is no possibility of reconciliation in the future.
Lin Qing stood at a certain point of decision, feeling that a pair of hands was pushing her forward, her repeated stubborn resistance could only make those hands harder, there was a cliff in front of her, but she couldn't see a way back when she turned back.
How could she not hesitate?
Mu Li had already guessed that she would react like this, but he was still disappointed in his heart, he withdrew his hand and turned over and walked to the bedroom, ignoring Lin Qing, who was struggling and contradictory in his heart behind him.
Lin Qing's lips opened, but he couldn't say a word.
When Mu Li came out of the bathroom again, the living room was empty.
He leaned against the door of his house and looked at the closed door of 2801, the cigarette sparks burning between his fingers, and a few pinches of soot scattered. He lowered his head and inhaled sharply, leaving only a cloud of smoke in his chest.
Lu Xiao didn't say a few words to Lin Qing because of that meal, so he asked Lin Qing out, and the two met at the dessert shop they used to go to, today is not a weekend, and the customer flow is relatively small.
Lin Qing looked around and didn't rush to order: "Will there be too many people here?" Otherwise, we will change homes. ”
She knew about Lu Xiao's situation, but if Lu Xiao had the intention to hide it, she wouldn't be able to know too much.
Lu Xiao pushed the list to her hand: "I'm much better now, and it's okay where there are many people." ”
"Really?" Lin Qing's eyes shone lightly, she pursed her lips and immediately swept towards the list, "I remember that you like to eat this, I haven't eaten it for a long time, I want this." ”
Lu Xiao has changed a lot compared to before, and there is no publicity, she nodded and beckoned to the waiter: "Order here." ”
Lin Qing watched Lu Xiao communicate with the waiter, and a warm current surged through his heart.
It's good to see Lu Xiao so good.
Although everyone has been hurt, someone has to escape from that memory, and Lin Qing was glad for the first time that that person was not her, but Lu Xiao.
Lu Xiao was stared at by her for a long time, and smoothed her short hair: "My hair is messy?" ”
Lin Qing pursed her lips lightly and shook her head with a smile: "I think you are going to become a heartthrob now, but how did you get together with that Ling Anan?" ”
Lu Xiao propped his elbows on the edge of the table, interlocked his palms towards him, and looked at a certain place: "I wasn't with him, he just learned about me from Mu Li by accident, so he just helped take care of me in the past few years." ”
"Is that all?" Lin Qing seemed to smell the gossip, "If he doesn't have other thoughts, how can he take care of you for no reason?" ”
Lin Qing held his chin, it was hard to imagine that gentleman going to take care of Lu Xiao on time day after day.
That scene must have been very terrifying.
"I guess I feel guilty." Lu Xiao didn't hide it, but she forgot that Lin Qing didn't know about it, and she only explained after recalling, "He said it a long time ago, and at that time, he delayed Mu Li to find you, so you missed it, and he has been blaming himself for this." But the accident wasn't entirely his fault, it rained so hard that day that I could tell he regretted it. ”
Lin Qing's pursed smile froze on her lips, her voice was faintly trembling, and she stared at Lu Xiao in a daze: "What did you just say...... What car accident? Why did Mu Li come to me? ”
Lu Xiao stopped talking, only then did she realize what she had said, she avoided Lin Qing's precise gaze, and felt empty for a moment: "Did I say it?" You may have misheard. ”
Lin Qing grabbed Lu Xiao's hand across the table: "You just said that Ling Anan delayed Mu Li to find me, and there was a car accident, you tell me, does the car accident have anything to do with Mu Li?" ”
Lu Xiao clenched his hands tightly, thinking about how to get this matter over. When Lin Qing came back, Ling Anan mentioned it and told Lin Qing that no one was allowed to say what Mu Li meant.
He didn't want Lin Qing to feel that he owed him, and he didn't want her to come back one day because of this reason.
Lin Qing looked at Lu Xiao's eyes as if he was suspicious: "When did Mu Li come to find me?" ”
"Lin Qing, then let me ask you, is this answer important to you?" Lu Xiao met her gaze, and this look actually crashed straight into Lin Qing's eyes.
Her look ......
Lu Xiao was slightly stunned, and the waiter brought dessert on a plate.
The waiter put the two desserts in front of the two of them, and Lin Qing had to let go of his hand and sit back. After the waiter left, Lin Qing retracted her gaze and looked down at the dessert, the mango was cut into small pieces and sprinkled on the ice cream, she could smell the sweetness of the ice cream mixed with the aroma of mango.
It was very fragrant, but she lost her appetite for a while.
"Lin Qing, if Mu Li is still so important to you......"
"No, he's nothing to me," Lin Qing picked up the delicate little spoon and scooped a piece of diced mango into his mouth, the cold air poured into his heart and lungs along his breath, "All I care about is whether there was a truth I didn't know five years ago." ”
Lu Xiao actually wanted to say, what are you still awkward like this? Obviously I care.
However, Lin Qing didn't mention this topic, nor did she say the conditions that Mu Li proposed last night, she knew that no one could help her in this matter.
The two chatted in the dessert house all afternoon, the sun was dyed dim, Lu Xiaocai took out her mobile phone and looked at the time, her eyelids jumped when she pressed the screen, and she covered the screen on the table with a sweep.
Lin Qing clasped his hands together and pressed the back of his hand against his chin, and pouted at Lu Xiao's mobile phone: "Ling Anan is looking for you?" ”
Lu Xiao knew that Lin Qing didn't like Ling Annan: "It's okay, let's go on, I think it's still early, why don't you go to eat nearby in a while?" ”
Although Lin Qing hated that man, she could see that Lu Xiao was different from Ling Anan, and she naturally wouldn't hinder her: "If he is in a hurry to find it, it will be counted on my head, you can call him back quickly." ”
"Lin Qing, it's impossible for me and him." Lu Xiao slid the phone that began to vibrate again to silent.
Lin Qing saw her movements, and her thin eyebrows furrowed slightly: "How can you be so sure?" How do you know if you don't try? ”
