Chapter 95: Two women, in a dilemma
When Tao Jiujiu was coquettish, her heart was full of sweetness: "I want to be single for a few more years and become a noble!"
"Is that so? It will be your zodiac year soon. If you don't marry me after the zodiac year, then you will have to wait until the next zodiac year!" Ye Hongtao said pretending to "intimidate".
"Isn't it just twelve years? Just wait!" Tao Jiujiu chuckled and said, "What's wrong with older single women? I really like this title, which means we have an identity and status!"
"Oh? Then why not wait until we are seventy-year-old and eighty-year-old before the wedding. Then you will be bald and old and ugly. No one will dare to marry you, and no one will rob you from me."
"No one is fighting with you, right?" Tao Jiujiu smiled and corrected.
"Why don't there be Wu Dazhi? People will send flowers! I have to be prepared for danger in times of peace and beware of his comeback." Ye Hongtao finally returned to normal after joking, and asked, "Jiujiu, what do you think of me as a person?"
"You are young and promising, talented, elegant and handsome..."
"Who is going to listen to your entrustment? Any aunt can say these nice words. I just want to know what kind of image I am in your heart and what position do you occupy?" Ye Hongtao asked again with emphasis.
"First of all, you are really handsome. Sometimes when I see your side face, I feel urge to drool. No wonder Su Yanyan, Yang Meina and Wen Zhiqian are entangled." Tao Jiujiu smiled and said, "Also, your heart is not bad. At least you have helped me a few times, so it is generous to me. Anyway, my heart was stolen by you for some reason."
"I remember someone once said, "Don't think that you are a little bit beautiful and will fascinate girls all over the world. It turns out that the girl who claims to be not fascinated by my "beauty" will also be fascinated!" Ye Hongtao smiled proudly.
"Oh, I'm trapped!" After wandering around for so long, Tao Jiujiu realized that his quarrel king had actually gotten into the language trap set by Ye Hongtao.
Ye Hongtao's previous words were to make Tao Jiujiu personally admit that she was attracted by her appearance, in order to retaliate against the "one word hatred" she criticized at the time.
"Go to bed early." Ye Hongtao's gentle voice came, "A good dream!"
"So too." When Tao Jiujiu hung up the phone, her heart was still sweet.
When embracing her happiness, Tao Jiujiu couldn't help but think of Jiang Wan'er again. Thinking of her hopeless love as if she was in a dead end, Tao Jiujiu had a headache. She couldn't think of any good way to help Jiang Wan'er get out of that haze.
============
Jiang Wan'er dragged her suitcase to the gate of Luo Kaiwen's villa in the suburbs of Luoshui City.
Before going out, Jiang Wan'er said to her grandfather and grandmother that she wanted to go out for a few days. The two old men had never doubted this kind and well-behaved granddaughter, and did not ask much, and agreed directly, and even did not ask her where she was going. She just told her to call her home regularly to report her safety.
Thinking of the two old men who loved her, Jiang Wan'er felt ache. In order to win her love, she had to deceive her relatives who had raised her. She felt guilty for this, but she had no regrets.
Now, Jiang Wan'er stood in front of the gate of the underground palace of her and Luo Kaiwen, and was hesitant and unable to take steps.
What's wrong? Before she came, her mind was full of Luo Kaiwen and this underground palace. Now she is close to her, why don't she even have the courage to enter?
The ancients often said that "the feeling of being close to home is even more timid." Could it be that this is the mood?
Wandering in front of the gate of the underground palace, hesitating for a long time, Jiang Wan'er finally plucked up the courage, took out the key a few steps ahead, and inserted it into the keyhole.
Thank goodness, Luo Kaiwen has not replaced the door lock yet.
When I opened the door, all the arrangements in this underground palace were the same as before, without any change. Only the seats and sofa cushions were placed slightly differently, as if someone had been there.
Who will be the person coming? It must be Luo Kaiwen, but will he bring his wife with him?
That night, they met at Yelai Xiang Barbecue Restaurant. They looked so close, they talked and laughed at each other, and they brought out the memories of their first love, which seemed so warm and beautiful.
Through a pearl curtain, Jiang Wan'er could hear it clearly for the first time that she realized that she was a complete outsider. Their world was like a special seal being printed, and she couldn't even get in even if she squeezed her head out.
The reason why I decided to fight for the last time was that I was awakened by Tao Jiujiu. Tao Jiujiu was right. She was still young and had time. Since that's the case, why should she rush to let go?
Jiang Wan'er walked into the bedroom with a familiar way, took out her clothes indifferently, slowly put them on a clothes hanger and hung them in the closet.
——This is her and Luo Kaiwen’s home. She wants to leave her own traces to show her identity as a “maid”. Only here can she be the majestic hostess. And most of the time, she is the “miss” who hides in a dark corner and cannot come out to see others.
She knew that she was the third party despised by the world, and knew that she had destroyed other people's families, and knew that the result would be a disaster, but she still chose to fall so resolutely.
This is a woman who can do whatever she wants for love.
============
After receiving Jiang Wan'er's email, Luo Kaiwen deleted it as soon as possible, but his heart could no longer calm down.
After get off work, he drove mechanically, and before he knew it, he had arrived in front of the underground palace of him and Jiang Wan'er.
The reason why such a secret garden was built was to have a convenient affair with Jiang Wan'er. Of course, no third person here knew about it except him and Jiang Wan'er. Here, he and Jiang Wan'er had spent countless unforgettable times and had too many beautiful memories.
But Luo Kaiwen still tried his best to let go of himself, treated his wife who had made great progress in his career wholeheartedly, and let go of Jiang Wan'er who should not have been moved.
Love has always been a bridge between two people, and it cannot tolerate the third leg. When he held Ye Li's hand and walked forward, he had to take care of the shadow behind him carefully. He felt tired and could no longer bear it.
However, any successful man will at least have two different women in their lives, one living by his side and the other living in his heart. Ye Li is like a bowl of fragrant rice, providing him with sufficient energy; and Jiang Wan'er is like a glass of mellow red wine, with endless aftertaste. He is a man, an ambitious and full of majesty man. He can't bear to eat and can't quit drinking.
