Lyrical and soft music was playing in the car. Qu Ruoning leaned on the back of her seat, tilting her head slightly and looking at the neon lights that were retreating.

Ren Shaochen put his hands on the steering wheel, pursed his lips slightly, and looked at Qu Ruoning's dazed look in the rearview mirror. He felt that he was becoming more and more elusive to her. He could still talk and laugh one moment, but he didn't love her the next moment.

The way she treats people is even more difficult to understand than when she suffered from depression two years ago.

"That night you said you regretted it, what did you regret?" Qu Ruoning suddenly turned her head back to look at Ren Shaochen, and asked him with her eyebrows blinking. In fact, she had wanted to ask this question for a long time, and it was always hanging in her heart.

.

Ren Shaochen was stunned at first, and then realized that Qu Qingying had an accident and was staying at his house, and Ruoning had to stay over that night. It turned out that she really didn't fall asleep, but why did she suddenly ask that sentence at this time?

"I regret agreeing to divorce too easily." Ren Shaochen told the truth. If he hadn't seen Gu Chendong and Ruoning hugging each other outside the bar, he didn't think he would be so impulsive.

Qu Ruoning didn't think so. She felt that although Ren Shaochen was impulsive that day, more importantly, he didn't care about the marriage that much, otherwise he wouldn't have agreed easily, which made people feel that he was not interested in the marriage.

Or treat her as dispensable.

And she herself was not without fault. Over the past two years, she knew that she had become paranoid and suspicious. When Ren Shaochen defended Tang Ling, she did not choose to believe him and wait for the truth. She even rushed to get out of this relationship.

Marriage, because it has become a shackles to her, she lacks the courage to continue to bear it.

"Actually, you don't need to regret it. Don't you think our current situation is better?" Qu Ruoning realized the answer in her heart and felt relieved. His regret at least proved that her five years by his side were not in vain.

Whether it's habit or family affection, it still occupies a place.

"I don't think it's better now." Ren Shaochen's voice was low.

Qu Ruoning looked directly at his face and smiled slightly: "I think this is good for both of us. I won't worry about gains and losses anymore, and you don't have to worry about me anymore. You can do what you want to do."

"Of course, I'm not blaming you for anything, but I really think so." Qu Ruoning lowered his head, turned away his eyes, and said: "If I have to say regret, what I regret is that I forced you and trapped you in this place.

Five years in this marriage have made both of us unhappy."

The more Ren Shaochen listened to Qu Ruoning's words, the more he frowned. Qu Ruoning rarely told him such confessions, so he realized that this was what she had always thought in her heart.

"I proposed the marriage. If I don't want to, no one can force me." Ren Shaochen frowned and explained.

"But you have always been a person with a strong sense of responsibility. You will naturally be responsible for what happened that year." Qu Ruoning simply explained clearly and told the truth about that night, saying: "Actually, that night was

I deliberately made you drink because I knew that the next day was Lin Weiyang's engagement day."

Qu Ruoning was two terms behind Ren Shaochen, and the School of Design and School of Finance at S University were far apart. When she met Ren Shaochen, it was at the end of her sophomore year and he was about to graduate.

But she had heard about his four-year relationship with Lin Weiyang in college. Before she met him, she had often heard that he and Lin Weiyang were the most perfect couple in school, and he was a well-known top student in the School of Finance and Economics.

, not to mention receiving scholarships every year, he was already a well-known trader in his senior year, and his cold personality added to his legend. The only person who can melt this iceberg is Lin Weiyang, his warmth

The smiles are all because of her.

But at that time, Qu Ruoning never thought that she would be related to the legendary figure, and it was really a coincidence that she met Ren Shaochen. As a friend, she watched Ren Shaochen and Lin Weiyang from the side after graduation.

After two years of separation and reunion, Lin Weiyang finally married someone else.

Qu Ruoning felt like she was like the law-abiding female lead in TV dramas. She secretly had a crush on the male protagonist and never dared to cross the line. The male protagonist's love had nothing to do with her from beginning to end.

Because of a drunken sex act, she took advantage of the situation and they were able to truly socialize.

Qu Ruoning knew that this was despicable and humble, but she just tried hard to give it a try and capture her love.

On that chaotic night, alcohol numbed people's nerves and gave her the courage. She was the one who seduced him first, and she was the first to take off his shirt.

She still remembered the details very clearly. At that time, she was very afraid that she would be pushed away, so she was careful and her fingers were trembling violently.

"Why did you mention her again? So what if the next day is her engagement day?" Ren Shaochen frowned again when he heard the name Lin Weiyang. He subconsciously rejected this name and thought it should not appear in his life.

her name.

Qu Ruoning knew Ren Shaochen's anxious expression very well. She curled her lips and laughed at herself. After so many years, Lin Weiyang's name could still arouse such a big emotion in him.

"Isn't it because of her that you were made drunk by me that day?" Qu Ruoning has always known it, but she likes to deceive herself. She trembled her long eyelashes and simply explained what happened that year more clearly.

: "On the morning of the next day, she sent you a text message saying that she was running away from marriage to be with you. Do you want to know what I replied on your phone?"

Ren Shaochen suddenly stopped the car, turned his head to look at Qu Ruoning, and looked at her in disbelief.

Qu Ruoning knew that she was extremely evil in doing so. Her selfishness ruined the happiness of Ren Shaochen and Lin Weiyang.

"I replied with the four words "Happy Engagement." After Qu Ruoning finished speaking, she took a long breath. The secret she had buried for so many years finally came out. Facts have proved that the happiness stolen and deceived will eventually end.

He is still going to disappear, Ren Shaochen does not belong to her in the first place.

Ren Shaochen withdrew his gaze, lowered his head and stared down for a long time. He gradually calmed down from the initial shock, started the car, and only said: "Before she got engaged, she and I had broken up for a long time."

This sentence is about taking the right and left into account, and it is avoiding the important and taking the easy. So what if we break up? How many people in this world still have each other hidden in their hearts after breaking up.

Qu Ruo stared at Ren Shaochen's side face, his eyes flashing slightly. He would do this every time he talked about Lin Weiyang. This was Ren Shaochen's Achilles' heel, which would never be solved.

"If it weren't for me, maybe you would be..."

"That's enough, don't mention it again, it's all over." Ren Shaochen cut off Qu Ruoning's words and ended the topic.

The car drove to the downstairs of Qu Ruoning's community. Ren Shaochen turned off the engine, got out of the driver's seat, ran to the passenger seat, opened the door, and bent over to carry Qu Ruoning out.

The two of them were silent all the way, which was completely different from the atmosphere when they crossed the overpass.

Back into the house, Ren Shaochen placed her on the sofa, lifted up the sleeves of his shirt, walked into the bathroom and filled the sink with warm water, then found pajamas from Ruoning's closet, then brought a chair in, and then supported Qu Ruoning

Go into the bathroom.

"You can't get wet these days, so it's better not to take a shower." Ren Shaochen helped her sit on a chair and twisted a towel for her.

Qu Ruoning was stunned and did not take his towel for a moment. She only listened to Ren Shaochen: "Do you want me to wash it for you?"

She reached out and grabbed the towel, lowering her head awkwardly, her ears slightly red.

"Aren't you going to wash it yet? The water is getting cold." Seeing that Qu Ruoning didn't move, Ren Shaochen reminded him.

"How can I wash if you don't go out?" Qu Ruoning frowned and looked up at Ren Shaochen strangely.

Ren Shaochen suddenly realized, took two steps back and said, "Then I'll go out first, and you be careful not to get wet."
