Chapter 9 What do you call you? Ex-husband?
Of course, Tang Jialin remembered this lunch box, although the lunch box was in her hands for less than two hours.
But this is the pattern she picked at a glance - when she was a child, she went to her grandma's house in the countryside, and this kind of small yellow flowers bloomed everywhere. When Tang Jialin went out to play, she always picked it up and asked her grandma to weave a garland for her, and then put it on her head happily.
There are still photos of Tang Jialin wearing a garland when she was a child at home.
But she didn't expect that Yu Lang still had this lunch box.
"Let's have a meal," Yu Lang felt relieved when he saw her recognize the lunch box, and put down the lunch box and opened the lid. "We'll talk about it after eating."
As he spoke, he handed it to Tang Jialin with another spoon, and then opened the double-layer insulation lunch box containing rice and sweet and sour rice. Tang Jialin saw an insulation bucket next to him, which should be sauerkraut fish.
She stirred the soup with a spoon and asked, "Did you ask a chef who runs a Zhejiang restaurant to make you pickled fish?"
"He said he could make it." Premier Yu was confident, "I said I couldn't do it, so I found a Sichuan cuisine chef."
Then he definitely can't admit that he can't do it. Besides, what if you eat the Sichuan cuisine master cooked and don't visit Chef Chen's business in the future? Tang Jialin complained in her heart, but she was too lazy to say it. She lowered her head and took two sips of the soup slowly.
Yu Lang opened the lid of the insulation bucket and dragged a chair to sit down.
Tang Jialin felt that he had been looking at her, so she raised her eyebrows and looked over.
The two met their eyes and Yu Lang said, "I've eaten it."
"..." Who asked you?
Tang Jialin ignored him and focused on eating.
Yu Lang sat next to him, feeling that he had not spoken and the atmosphere was too dull, so he tried to find a topic: "How is the business in the store recently?"
Tang Jialin looked up at him, and her eyes were strange from her face.
"What's wrong?" Yu Lang felt uncomfortable being seen by her.
Tang Jialin withdrew her gaze, picked up a piece of fish fillet, and said, "It's nothing, I just think it's very interesting. I've been opening this store for almost five months. This is the first time you've asked how the business is."
Yu Lang wanted to explain, but the phone rang at this moment. He glanced at the caller ID and immediately picked it up: "Dad."
The two of them sat not far away. Tang Jialin heard Yu's father say on the other side of the phone, "Well, where are you?"
Yu Lang hesitated for a moment, saw Tang Jialin withdraw his gaze, and said, "Be outside with Jialin."
"Oh, I heard from your mother that you haven't gone back to have a meal? I'm quite busy here recently and can't go back. If you have time, go back to spend more time with her."
"I know, dad." Yu Lang stood up, gestured to Tang Jialin, then left the kitchen, walked out of the store, and briefly told his father about meeting the investor yesterday.
Yu's father is not in China recently and does not interfere with the group's current business. He only mentions a few words about the wealth background of those investors, and then rewins the topic.
"Do you still remember why I didn't agree with your marriage to Xiao Tang?"
Yu Lang didn't understand why his father suddenly asked this, but he didn't answer for a moment.
Yu's father himself continued: "Because marriage is very important to men, a suitable wife will help you in all aspects, rather than dragging you down."
"Dad, Jialin..."
"I know she has advantages, but with her current performance, she is still far from it. If you are busy in your company, you should let her learn more from your mother..."
"Did my mother tell you something?" Yu Lang couldn't help asking.
"Why would she say anything? She was worried that you two would be having trouble." Yu's father sighed, "You are about to be thirty years old. You should consider the age of your parents. Xiao Tang is still so immature. How can you rest assured when you ask me and your mother?"
Yu Lang said stubbornly: "We are pretty good, there is no trouble. Don't take the opportunity to urge us to have a baby, I don't want to be distracted now..."
"What should you be distracted by having a baby?"
Yu Lang turned around and saw that Tang Jialin had come out of the kitchen. He changed Cao Xuan to have a meal. He wanted to end the call as soon as possible, and replied half sincerely and half complimentedly: "I want to be a responsible father like you who is a good father to accompany your children's growth."
"Hmph, I will flatter me." Yu's father did not talk about giving birth anymore, "But remember, if your wife has to teach her and is too indulging her, there will be no good results."
Yu Lang hung up the phone, adjusted his mood, and then opened the door and entered the store, asking Tang Jialin: "I'm full? How about pickled fish?"
"It's OK, it's almost the same as what I did myself."
Yu Lang: “…”
Tang Jialin ate the meal he sent and felt that it was time to exchange gifts, so she made him a cup of coffee and asked him to sit down face to face. She asked calmly: "Have you seen the divorce agreement?"
This was not the opening remark Yu Lang wanted, but he nodded.
Tang Jialin wanted to ask him what he had to say after reading it. As soon as he opened his mouth, he said first: "I'm sorry, I... was a little impulsive yesterday and said something I shouldn't have said."
Did he actually apologize? Tang Jialin widened her eyes in surprise, as if she was looking at an alien.
"There is also the previous matter of Shang Nannan. Although the company hired her for business and had no personal relationships, I ignored the exchanges between elders..."
When Tang Jialin heard this, she couldn't help but laugh.
Yu Lang felt that he had already lowered his head to apologize, and his attitude was sincere, but she suddenly sneered and was suddenly a little unhappy: "Why are you laughing at?"
"It's nothing, you can continue." Tang Jialin said with a smile.
Yu Lang stared at her and said nothing.
Tang Jialin found it even more funny, "Why would you skip this part?"
"Tang Jialin," Yu Lang couldn't help calling her with his first name, "I'm apologizing to you seriously."
Yes, this is Mr. Yu. Tang Jialin put away her smile and cooperated and said, "Sorry, I'm not right. Wait a moment, I'll go get the computer to make a meeting record."
Not only did she say this, she also acted to stand up. Yu Lang was so angry that he grabbed her wrist and asked, "What do you want?"
"I should ask you this," Tang Jialin did not give in. "I have said many times that I want to get a divorce. What about you? What do you want to do today?"
The two of them had their eyes collided, and they were angry and cold as if the blade had a sharp edge. Although the fire was very strong, unfortunately the blade was not afraid at all, and the flames could only be extinguished by themselves in the end.
"I want to have a calm talk with you." Yu Lang said, let go of his hand and sat back.
"Then I really didn't see it." Tang Jialin said sarcastically and sat back.
Yu Lang's anger that was suppressed suddenly rekindled, "You were obviously provoking me first, so I will explain it to you carefully. You suddenly laughed and asked you what you laughed but didn't say, I..."
"I laugh because you speak interestingly." Tang Jialin generously explained her doubts, "and also emphasized that 'there is no personal relationship in it'."
"This is the fact."
"Oh? Although I don't care about this anymore, since I'm talking about it," Tang Jialin sat upright and looked straight in his eyes. "Mr. Yu, how did Shang Nannan's resume come to your personnel department?"
Yu Lang: "My name is Zhou Yaoguangzhuan..."
Halfway through his speech, he realized something was wrong and stopped.
Tang Jialin smiled: "The president's special assistant transferred to the Human Resources Department's resume, and he really has no personal relationship."
"..." Yu Lang couldn't help but explain, "At that time, Zhou Yaoguang happened to be next to me. My mother mentioned Shang Nannan. I was too lazy to care more, so I asked them to send their resumes to Zhou Yaoguang."
"Well, it's reasonable. If I were an HR, if I received such a resume, I would definitely arrange someone to the president's secretary's office." Tang Jialin still smiled faintly, "It's useless to be favored by the flow of favors."
Yu Lang: "...even if that's the case, it's not what I mean."
"Even if that's the case?" Tang Jialin finally stopped laughing, "Don't tell me, Mr. Yu, it's only now that I can understand the twists and turns here."
"What do you mean?"
Tang Jialin said coldly: "My meaning is very simple. If you don't tell me that Shang Nannan is intern in your secretary's room, the reason is not that you are talking about normal personnel arrangements. There is no need to tell me, but that you don't want to tell me."
Yu Lang looked at Tang Jialin for two seconds before saying, "I knew you were still doing this."
When Tang Jialin heard his conclusion again, she was not angry and laughed: "If you have to think so, I can't do anything about it."
"..." Mr. Yu, who has experienced many business negotiations, rarely felt that the rhythm of the conversation was not under his control. He picked up the coffee and took a few sips to stabilize his mood again.
"I always feel that based on your understanding of me, I should know that I have no interest in women other than you." Yu Lang put down his cup and said slowly.
"So what? I didn't say you were cheating." Tang Jialin knew his subtext, "I just said that you were too lazy to explain to me like you did just now, so you deliberately didn't tell me about Shang Nannan. How about it? I know you enough, Mr. Yu?"
"Let's talk well, can you not call me Mr. Yu?"
After being called out, he lost his temper. Man, haha, Tang Jialin sneered: "What did you call you? Ex-husband?"
Yu Lang got angry and left. Tang Jialin looked at the wind chime that was hit by the door and twitched, "You're so angry? I haven't used my ultimate move yet."
Seeing that Mr. Yu had already gotten on the bus outside and there were more pedestrians on the road, Tang Jialin quickly put away the coffee cup and prepared to entertain the guests who bought lunch.
The kitchen chef Cao Xuan saw her bringing the cup in and said in surprise: "Have you finished the talk?"
Tang Jialin glared at her and was about to settle the score with her when the wind chime rang out again outside, so she had to say: "I'll settle the score with you later!" She hurried out.
The two little girls who bought bread came in. Tang Jialin helped them pack and collected the money. The takeaway platform also jumped out of the order. She had just finished the cake bag from the takeaway order, but someone came in again.
While taking the outer packaging bag, Tang Jialin looked at the door and said, "Good noon" to her lips. After seeing the person clearly, she turned into: "What are you doing when you are back?"
"Lunch Box." Yu Lang returned home.
Cao Xuan happened to come out at this time and saw the two of them confront each other across the counter. He wanted to retreat immediately, but it was too late.
"What are Cao Xuan still standing there? Mr. Yu wants his lunch box."
"Oh..." Cao Xuan's eyes turned, "President Yu comes in and get it."
Seeing that Tang Jialin was not stopped, Yu Lang followed Cao Xuan into the kitchen.
"What's wrong? Is there a quarrel again?" Cao Xuan asked in a low voice.
Yu Lang frowned: "She doesn't want to have a good talk at all."
"...When she wants to talk, don't you talk to her." Cao Xuan still said to his friend, "I will have to pay back the debts I owe sooner or later."
As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Jialin called Cao Xuan outside. She quickly agreed, then pointed to the cooking table and said, "I'll wash the lunch box and pack it." Then she went out first.
Yu Lang said that taking lunch boxes was of course just an excuse, but he really didn't know how to talk to Tang Jialin again at this time, especially when there were outsiders.
Standing in the kitchen and waiting for a while, the door of the store outside kept ringing. Knowing that Tang Jialin was busy and impossible to come in, Yu Lang had to lift up the bag containing the lunch box and go out by himself.
Tang Jialin was checking out at the counter, and she didn't even look at him. Yu Lang thought for a while and saw that the table was empty by the window, so he walked over and sat down.
Cao Xuan didn't say anything when he saw that there were too many customers. After a while, there were fewer customers, he approached his friend and poked her arm gently, indicating that Mr. Yu was still there.
Tang Jialin didn't want to waste her time anymore, so she walked over and said, "I'm very busy and I don't have time to argue with you. Please contact my lawyer if you have any questions."
The first half of the sentence is the original words, and the second half is her current attitude.
Yu Lang stood up and said slowly: "If you want to get a divorce, you have to give me a reason."
“The relationship breaks down.”
"I didn't feel broken."
"The three views are not consistent."
"It's been three years of marriage, and you're just saying it's not right now?"
Tang Jialin smiled angrily: "I said it a long time ago, you didn't listen!"
Yu Lang was about to continue asking, but the glass door was pushed open again, and an old lady who looked familiar came in.
"Auntie Lu, I came here so early, don't take a nap today?" Tang Jialin turned around and said hello.
"Well, my wife and their relatives from the hometown are here. I was too lazy to greet him, so I said I had gone to work and slipped out." The old lady was curly and dressed up very decently, with a smart face.
Yu Lang looked more and more familiar. Aunt Lu also noticed a tall and handsome man standing by the window. She took a few steps closer and said, "Oh, why do I look at this customer like the prince of the Yu family?"
Yu Prince Lang: "…"
Tang Jialin couldn't help but burst out laughing: "You read it right, this is Yu Lang." He then said to Yu Lang, "Do you still remember Aunt Lu? Hengfeng..."
"Remember, Aunt Lu, an excellent employee of the center store." Yu Lang remembered when he heard the old lady talking to him, "I remember you retired."
Aunt Lu sighed: "Are we old guys, then we have to retire if we want to retire?"
This was sarcastic, but Yu Lang didn't want to delve into it, so he just said to Tang Jialin: "You are busy now, let's talk later."
Tang Jialin said, "No, it's good to talk about it like this. You don't know. The store we rented is Aunt Lu. Not only did Aunt Lu reduce the rent for me, she is also helping us make red bean paste in my store."
She paused for a moment and then laughed at herself: "Look at me, I'm talking nonsense again. It was Mr. Yu's first time to come to our store yesterday. How could he know this?"
"..." Yu Lang had nothing to answer.
"You want a reason to divorce me," Tang Jialin's voice became tighter and tighter, "It's not that I can't give it, it's just that there are too many. I don't know which one to choose. I'm married for three years and I only enjoy Mr. Yu serving him for the first time today? Or get married to you, and I can't even choose a wedding dress myself? Or you can choose one by yourself, ex-husband."
