Now that their relationship is public, both parents know about it, and colleagues have accepted it. Then there is nothing to hide.
"Yueyue, who are you texting with? So often!" Li Chen asked jokingly.
"My ex-husband." Hua Yueyue had no intention of hiding anything. Li Chen was surprised, as he didn't expect her to be so honest. Shouldn't women usually lie to their friends or colleagues at this time?
But she admitted it so directly. Did she not take him to heart, or did she feel there was no need to hide it? Li Chen couldn't figure her out.
Think about who Li Chen is, a person who can pass through a hundred flowers without leaving a single leaf behind.
"Yueyue, let's have dinner together tonight."
"No need!"
"Didn't you say you still owe me a meal?"
"Oh, by the way, don't be embarrassed, I almost forgot, okay, I'll treat you tonight, where do you want to go?"
"Then I'm not welcome?"
"Well, you decide."
"Okay, I know there is a delicious Japanese restaurant, but it's a bit far away-"
"how far?"
"It's about twenty kilometers from here, right?"
"That's not too far. Do you like to eat?"
"Well, I've only been there once, and I thought it was okay."
"Then go ahead. You're the one driving the car anyway, so I won't reimburse you for the gas."
"Haha, of course, you're going to treat me to dinner, so why do you still need to reimburse me for gas expenses?"
It was already past seven o'clock in the evening when Yu Haichen got off work. When he returned home, he first looked at Hua Yueyue's house. It was dark with no lights? Could it be that Li Chen took him away for dinner again? He felt sad, but he couldn't hold back his anger. He
Don't let Hua Yueyue feel that she is stingy.
After parking the car and walking into his house, he went to the bathroom to wash his hands first, then opened the refrigerator door and found that there was really nothing inside. So he went out to do some shopping.
I went to a nearby supermarket, picked out some raw and cooked food, and bought some daily necessities. My aunt, who was already hungry, said that he couldn't wait to go home to cook, so he bought a bucket of instant noodles and asked the store for hot water.
After brewing, sit by the window and wait for the noodles.
Looking at the pedestrians and vehicles passing by, Yu Haichen couldn't help but think of Hua Yueyue's face.
A few years ago, they had just moved here and were not very familiar with the surrounding environment. After the move, they came here together. When they were hungry, they bought instant noodles and sat here. At that time, they seemed to be still
Very happy.
We ate together and walked on the street together.
Although they didn't talk much, they could feel each other's warmth. When did they start to drift apart? It was the second year after they started working. Yu Haichen often traveled for business, and Hua Yueyue often went to school in order not to let herself be alone at home.
She made an excuse to work overtime. At the beginning of the period, it was indeed an excuse. Later, when business improved and there was a shortage of designers, she became busy and working overtime became a routine.
Until the third year, they gradually became depressed after spending less time together and more separation. On the eve of Yu Haichen's promotion to vice president, Hua Yueyue filed for divorce, which happened to be three years and two months after their marriage. He agreed because
Get used to not saying no.
Now that she spoke, he accepted it habitually.
I reflect that I am indeed not a responsible husband.
After eating instant noodles, Yu Haichen returned home carrying large and small bags. He filled up his own refrigerator first, and then sent the extra to Hua Yueyue's refrigerator next door.
By the way, I took a photo for her: [I didn’t pay attention when I was shopping in the supermarket just now. I bought too much and couldn’t fit it in my refrigerator. I’ll give the extra to you. If you feel burdened, you can transfer it to me]
After sending the message and waiting for a while, Hua Yueyue did not reply immediately; I don’t know what she is doing now? Eating? Walking? Or something else--
At this time, a message came on the phone, and it was from Hua Yueyue.
[Thank you, I was just thinking about buying something, so that would save me the trouble. How much is it? I’ll transfer it to you.] Do you really want to transfer it? Yu Haichen squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then sent over a few numbers, and Hua Yueyue quickly transferred the money.
come over.
[Have you eaten?] Yu Haichen still couldn't help but ask.
[Eating] Just two words, Yu Haichen looked at it for a long time, and finally replied with [Oh];
"Does Yueyue have many friends?" On the other end, Li Chen saw Hua Yueyue sending messages and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Not much." Hua Yueyue put down her phone and replied.
"Oh, so you are quite busy at work?"
"Yeah, it's not bad." Hua Yueyue replied good-naturedly, lowered her head and continued to eat. They had been waiting for nearly two hours for this meal. From driving here to waiting in line, it basically took a lot of time. Then they sat down
It didn’t take long for us to come down and start eating.
"That's good, we can have more time to see each other in the future."
"Yeah." Hua Yueyue was busy eating and didn't pay attention to the meaning of Li Chen's words. She was too hungry.
Li Chen was happy that she had accepted his pursuit. He was in a good mood and couldn't hide the smile on his face.
Yu Haichen packed up the two refrigerators, took a shower and washed his hair, then turned on the TV out of boredom and kept changing channels. He found that there was nothing that could arouse his interest. There were many messages on his mobile phone, but none of them were from Hua Yueyue.
He threw away the remote control irritably. As time passed, he felt that his patience was running out.
Why doesn't she go home? Does it take so long to have a meal? This Li Chen wouldn't deliberately make excuses to trick her into some secret place, right?
I picked up my phone and wanted to send a message to ask - but I felt that I was too close to the person. What if she was disgusted? I scratched my head irritably and randomly clicked on the TV. After choosing a suspense movie, I stopped.
live!
A grimace appeared on the TV screen, followed by endless darkness. Yu Haichen was quite courageous, but he was frightened without warning.
He turned off the TV, looked at the ceiling nervously, and quickly rushed into the bedroom.
"I'm very happy tonight. Thank you, Yueyue." Li Chen spoke to Hua Yueyue while driving. His bright eyes looked at the woman beside him tenderly.
"I want to thank you." Hua Yueyue smiled with satisfaction.
Although I paid for it myself, the food was pretty good.
"In the future, we can come to eat often. I'll treat you next time." Li Chen seemed to notice Hua Yueyue's liking, so he took the opportunity to make an agreement.
"Well, it depends on the time. Although it tastes good, it's just a little far away. The waiting time is too long, and it's uncomfortable to be hungry." Hua Yueyue was not very enthusiastic.
"Yeah, then let's find a place closer next time, and I'll make a strategy first."
"Okay." Li Chen smiled brightly when he received her response.
"Yueyue, I am very happy to be with you."
"Oh, me too."
"Then we - can we be considered friends?"
"What do you think?" We've had dinner together a few times. Are we still friends?
Hua Yueyue was wearing glasses, with light shining through the mirror, and the raised corners of her mouth were naughty and cute. Li Chen was a little distracted for a moment.
"I said, we are friends, and I will date Yueyue often in the future." Li Chen deliberately spoke in a teasing tone, making Hua Yueyue laugh;
It was already around 8:50 pm when Li Chen sent Hua Yueyue home.
"Yueyue, can I make an appointment with you tomorrow?" Li Chen couldn't help asking just before Hua Yueyue got off the car. Hua Yueyue smiled and nodded, "But you have to send me a message first."
"Okay, if you work overtime, I'll wait for you to get off work." After saying that, Hua Yueyue got out of the car and waved goodbye. After walking into the house, she remembered what Yu Haichen said about the food in the refrigerator, so she went over to open the refrigerator door, and was surprised to find that it wasn't the food in the refrigerator.
There is only a little excess, but everything is filled. This chapter has been completed!
