Chapter 196
A month after discovering that Lu Ning and Lin Qianxue were chatting ambiguously, Su Li once again found that all the chat records between him and her had been deleted. She didn't know if they talked anymore, but judging from this action, she always felt that he was
Feeling guilty.
She also knew clearly that he said at that time, "If I really have an idea, these chat records will be deleted and you will not be able to see them."
But now, she can't see any of them.
Su Li didn't ask further. She knew she couldn't get anything out of her. When a person starts to hide something from you, all you can get are lies.
She didn't ask, but Lu Ning took the initiative and said, "I deleted the chat history because I was afraid that if you read it and think too much, there would be nothing between us."
She asked, "Since there is nothing, why not just delete it?"
"We are friends, and we sometimes communicate with each other at work. Recently, our companies have also been cooperating."
Su Li didn't say anything more. She couldn't make a fuss and insist that he delete her. That would make her very unreasonable.
And some things cannot be forced.
She didn't dwell on the matter any longer, and she never mentioned it again, so her days continued as before. The two of them were still in different places, occasionally chatting via video chat, and occasionally meeting each other.
Lu Ning would sometimes happily think about the days when they would move in together in front of her, "When you quit your job and come here, our savings will be enough to buy a house, and we can decorate it to the way we like."
Su Li imagined a day like that, in a clean new house, planting flowers on the balcony, cooking new dishes in the kitchen, and when she had children, the children would play in the living room and wait for their father to get off work.
After work, the family went for a walk downstairs after dinner, then came back to take a shower and go to bed.
Every time I think like this, I feel happy and expectant, but the face of the man in my mind is clearly Gu Ling'an's.
She had to admit that what she was looking forward to more was living that kind of life with Gu Ling'an, rather than her current husband, Lu Ning.
Lu Ning could probably feel it too. Sometimes he would ask, "You don't seem very happy."
Su Li would reply, "No, I'm quite happy."
"That's good, smile more, I haven't seen you smile for a long time."
Su Li had indeed not smiled for a long time. She tried to raise the corners of her mouth, which only lasted for two seconds, and then returned to her usual expressionless face, "Why can't you be happy?"
No one gave her an answer. Life went by day by day, and it seemed to be no different from before marriage. If there was any difference, it was because of the sexual relationship.
Occasionally, Lu Ning would want to have sex with her when they met. Sometimes she would cooperate, and sometimes she would refuse by saying she was tired.
After Chen Xi found out about this, he said to her, "If you can't satisfy your man, he will find another woman to satisfy himself."
"Can't we have a sexless marriage? We must have that to be able to last forever?" Although she occasionally had that desire, it always came and went quickly.
"Idiot, the so-called sexless marriage is just an excuse for not loving. I saw a news before, a woman married a man, the man asked for a sexless marriage, and the woman agreed. The first few years after marriage were good, but
Later, the man cheated on her."
Su Li listened quietly without interrupting.
Chen Xi continued, "The irony is that the man fell in love with a woman, got divorced quickly, and then started a sexual marriage with another woman, and soon gave birth to a child."
Su Li felt incredible, "If this man didn't love that woman, why did he marry her?"
"You don't really love Lu Ning, so why did you marry him in the first place!"
Su Li thought about it. The reason why she married him in the first place was that both parents liked each other and hoped that they would get married soon. They urged them to get married soon. Then she looked at her friends and colleagues around her and felt that they were all getting married.
If I continue to be single, I will attract gossip and pressure. Furthermore, Lu Ning is really good, both in appearance and ability, he is a rare candidate for a husband.
Chen Xi said, "Actually, many marriages are not concluded because of love." He frowned and said, "It's a little off topic. You'd better move to Lu Ning's place as soon as possible. It's better for the couple to live together."
Su Li nodded and replied with a perfunctory "ok".
After chatting back, she was not in a hurry to move in with Lu Ning. The two continued to live in separate places. It was not until the students she taught graduated that Su Li resigned as she had agreed with Lu Ning before, and then moved to the city where he was.
.
The house has just been renovated and is clean and bright everywhere. You can see a large mountain view from the balcony.
It was happy at the beginning. During the day, Su Li did housework at home and tidied the room, Lu Ning went to work, came back after get off work, had dinner together, then went out for a walk, came back, watched TV, chatted all day, and then went to bed.
Simple but beautiful, but as time goes by, simplicity becomes boring, and the beautiful feeling disappears.
Various annoying trivial matters began to appear in their lives, and sometimes they would have a few quarrels, or even a cold war in serious cases.
For example, one time, Su Li cooked dinner but couldn't wait for Lu Ning to come back. She called to ask and found out that he had gone out to eat.
Looking at a table of hard-cooked dishes alone, she felt very bad. When Lu Ning came back, she asked him, "Why didn't you tell me in advance when you were going out to eat?"
Lu Ning replied, "I was going home to eat, but some partners from the cooperative company invited us out, but we couldn't refuse the hospitality, so we went. I was chatting with them about new projects in the car, and didn't have time to inform you. I waited until I remembered that I wanted to talk to you.
Say, you have already turned on the phone first."
Su Li was not satisfied with this explanation, but no matter how dissatisfied it was, things had already happened.
What she didn't expect was that things like this happened more and more frequently after that, and sometimes they would quarrel because of it. Su Li was angry that he was becoming more and more careless about his family, and Lu Ning was angry that she was becoming more and more inconsiderate.
He always said, "I have to work hard to pay off my mortgage and car loan. There is a saying on the Internet that when a man is lifting bricks, he has no time to hug you."
All she could say was, "Then I'll go to work too."
"What job are you looking for? Or be a teacher?"
"Um."
Later, Su Li worked as a Chinese teacher in a primary school. The salary was not high, but it could also subsidize a lot of family income.
After I got a job, I could no longer take care of my home. Sometimes the floor was only mopped once every few days, and the kitchen was not used for several days.
One weekend, while watching TV, Lu Ning accidentally said something, "Qianxue's house is very clean."
