Chapter Fourteen. Knocking at the Door at Midnight

Qu Ruoning is a little confused about Ren Shaochen's current mentality. After a divorce, he shouldn't be separated from each other all over the world. It's not like he has no friends, so why would he want to stay with her ex-wife?

"Are you still used to living here?" Ren Shaochen asked casually as he walked into the house and looked around.

"Yeah." Qu Ruoning followed and responded.

Ren Shaochen sat on the sofa and took off his tie. Qu Ruoning saw that his face was flushed and he smelled of alcohol, as if he had drunk a lot, so she went into the kitchen and poured him a glass of water.

"Thank you." Ren Shaochen took it, feeling soft in his heart, as if he had returned to the past, and Qu Ruoning would always detect his needs in the smallest details.

"The guest room has not been cleaned. Is it okay to sleep on the sofa tonight?" Qu Ruoning asked for his opinion. She suddenly felt that they might be the most peaceful couple who got along after the divorce. They were more respectful to each other than they were in their marriage.

Ren Shaochen had no objection and nodded. Qu Ruoning went in and brought him a thin blanket.

When he came out, Ren Shaochen was already lying on the sofa with his eyes closed.

Considering Ren Shaochen's height, the length of the sofa is definitely not enough. His long legs can only be rested on the armrests of the sofa, making it look like he is not sleeping comfortably.

Qu Ruoning walked over, leaned over and covered him with a thin blanket. When she turned to leave, Ren Shaochen grabbed her wrist.

"A Ning." Ren Shaochen called out in confusion, his eyes half-opened.

Seeing that he didn't continue speaking, Qu Ruoning wanted to withdraw her hand, but Ren Shaochen exerted a little force on his arm, and Qu Ruoning accidentally fell to the sofa and threw herself into Ren Shaochen's arms.

Just as Qu Ruoning was about to stand up, Ren Shaochen put his hands around Qu Ruoning's waist, preventing her from leaving.

Ren Shaochen's arms smelled of alcohol. Qu Ruoning squirmed and said angrily: "What are you doing! Let me go!"

Ren Shaochen lowered his eyes and looked at Qu Ruoning in his arms, as if he didn't hear what she said.

Qu Ruoning was about to speak again, but Ren Shaochen lowered his head and pursed her delicate lips, invading her lips and teeth with the smell of alcohol.

Qu Ruoning was startled and put her hand on Ren Shaochen's chest, trying to push him away.

Ren Shaochen kissed her forcefully and tightened Qu Ruoning's waist. Qu Ruoning could not move and calmed down. Ren Shaochen felt that she had softened, so he moved to kiss her neck and nimbly unbuttoned her clothes with his fingers.

"Ren Shaochen, let go." Qu Ruoning's lips were red and swollen from being kissed, and she said with a cold voice, "We are divorced."

When Ren Shaochen, who was still moving, heard these words, he stopped and woke up slightly from drunkenness.

Qu Ruoning stood up from his arms with her clothes half-undressed, looked down at him, and said with vague anger: "I'm not one of those women who get drunk and have sex at will."

After saying this, Qu Ruoning felt that she had no position. Five years ago, when they went to bed, Ren Shaochen was drunk, and he was drunk for other women. She knew it and still slept with him willingly.

bed.

"If you are looking for someone, Tang Ling is more suitable." Qu Ruoning pursed her lips, tilted her head, and added in a cold voice.

"Sorry, I forgot that we were divorced." Ren Shaochen sat up, rubbed his temples to make himself more awake, looked up at Qu Ruoning, and explained: "But I have never had that kind of relationship with her."

Qu Ruoning trembled and turned back to look at Ren Shaochen, only to hear him say again: "She found someone to set up a trap. Nothing happened that day. I went to the night bar to find you just to clarify this matter.

"

After Qu Ruoning listened, she was slightly startled. The misunderstanding was solved. She should be happy, but her heart didn't have much ups and downs. Maybe in those long five years, her love had been exhausted, and what was left was just persistence.

After the divorce, that attachment was cut off.

Facing Ren Shaochen now, her heart was not calm, but it was not too big.

"A Ning." Ren Shaochen went to hold Qu Ruoning's hand. He was about to say something, but stopped when he saw her empty ring finger and asked, "Where is your ring?"

Qu Ruoning lowered her head and saw that Ren Shaochen was still holding her hand with a wedding ring on it, but her own hand was empty. Her throat went dry and she whispered: "It fell into the sewer and was washed away."

Ren Shaochen let go of Qu Ruoning's hand. He vaguely remembered her happy expression when she put on the ring. It turned out that she was so ruthless when she abandoned it.

"A Ning, let me ask you a question." Ren Shaochen stood up, looked at her with his eyes as deep as an ancient well, and said in a low voice: "Does our divorce have anything to do with Gu Chendong?"

Qu Ruoning was shocked when she heard this. She looked at Ren Shaochen in disbelief and said, "What are you implying?"

Ren Shaochen did not answer, still looking at Qu Ruoning. The doubt in his mind became bigger and bigger after bumping into Gu Chendong several times, especially tonight. He did not deny that he came here to confirm whether Gu Chendong was there.

"Ren Shaochen, I didn't expect you to think of me like this!" Qu Ruoning smiled bitterly and said in a deep voice: "Do you think I got together with Gu Chendong first and then divorced you because of Tang Ling's matter?

?I am such a woman in your eyes?!"

After Qu Ruoning finished questioning, she was so angry that her whole body was shaking. She never knew that Ren Shaochen would speculate on her like this.

In five years, even if he didn't fall in love with her, he should still understand her.

When she saw Ren Shaochen was silent and knew that he had acquiesced, her heart gradually grew cold. She was once afraid that she would regret it after the divorce, but at this moment, she suddenly felt that this might be the best choice for her. Ren Shaochen was a heartless bastard!

"Get out." Qu Ruoning took a deep breath, pointed at the door and said to Ren Shaochen. She didn't even have the strength to get angry, she just wanted to hurry up and not see him.

"Ruoning..." Ren Shaochen wanted to explain something. He clearly knew that Qu Ruoning was not such a person, but when he saw Gu Chendong next to her again and again, how could he not want to deviate?

"Ren Shaochen, I originally thought that we didn't have a deep hatred. There was no need to stay away from each other after getting divorced. I even thought that maybe we could be ordinary friends again, but now I realize that it might be better for both of us not to meet each other." Qu Ruo

Ning sighed, thinking that this way she could still keep a little bit of his good looks.

"You can question me and Tang Ling, don't I have the right to ask? Qu Ruoning, you are always like this, whether it starts or ends, it is in your hands." Ren Shaochen understood Qu Ruoning's stubbornness,

He looks gentle, but is actually firm. The words he speaks and the decisions he makes are like water being poured out, leaving no room for change.

Qu Ruoning pursed her lips tightly and did not deny Ren Shaochen's evaluation. She was indeed the one who started this marriage. She confessed to him and it was she who proposed the end.

"Sorry to bother you today, I won't do it again." Ren Shaochen bent down and took the tie, his face returned to calm, and he whispered: "Goodbye."

After finishing speaking, Ren Shaochen walked towards the door.

Qu Ruoning stood there, heard the sound of the door closing, and sat slumped on the sofa. She had decided to face him calmly and freely, so why could she lose her composure and argue with him today.

After all, I still care in my heart.
