As the New Year was approaching, Gu Xiyan got up early in the morning and started packing her things.
After breakfast, Shang Yiqi drove Gu Xiyan and the little girl in his Lamborghini towards the military compound.
In the past two years, every Chinese New Year, the two of them and the little girl would move together, and their destination was the residence of Shang Yiqi's parents, Gu Xiyan's parents-in-law, and the little girl's grandparents.
The car drove by and about half an hour later, the People's Liberation Army Military Region compound appeared in the capital.
The car drove into the courtyard of a three-story villa building in the compound. After getting out of the car, Shang Yiqi went to the back compartment to get something, while Gu Xiyan held the little girl in her arms.
A group of three people knocked on the door of the residence and entered. A lively exchange of pleasantries was inevitable.
The little girl's grandmother laughed happily when the three people arrived, and happily took the little girl over. She also did not forget to ask her son and daughter-in-law to sit down.
Shang Yiqi was not polite. After a brief nod, he hugged Gu Xiyan and sat on the sofa.
When Shang Yiqi's father came down from upstairs, Shang Yiqi just shouted lightly: "Dad".
Shang Yiqi's father, Shang Baike, the political commissar of the People's Liberation Army Military Region in Beijing, with the rank of general, nodded when he heard the titles of his son and daughter-in-law.
Looking at each other in silence.
Gu Xiyan knew that Shang Yiqi and her father-in-law never had anything to say, so it was awkward for her to be held in Shang Yiqi's arms at this moment.
Two years after marrying Shang Yiqi, Gu Xiyan found out that her husband was not only a lawyer, but also the son of the political commissar of the Beijing Military Region. Shang Yiqi himself also had the rank of lieutenant colonel.
Gu Xiyan could sense that there was a conflict between Shang Yiqi and her father-in-law, but Shang Yiqi didn't say anything, so she didn't ask. Similarly, she also knew that her father-in-law didn't like her very much.
Speaking of which, almost everyone thinks that Shang Yiqi should marry his childhood sweetheart, Xiaoxiao. However, in the two years since Gu Xiyan and Shang Yiqi got married, Gu Xiyan had never met Shang Yiqi's parents at all. During the wedding year
Gu Xiyan was only twenty-one years old, ignorant and fearless.
Gu Xiyan was nineteen years old when she threatened to say goodbye to Wei Zhe. She ran to the airport alone. At that time, she had only one thought in her mind: from now on, she would never appear in front of Wei Zhe again.
Unexpectedly, she even packed her clothes. Only when she arrived at the airport did she realize that she didn’t bring any money. There is nothing more dramatic in life than this!
Sitting alone in the terminal, surrounded by a steady stream of people, but no one she knew. She couldn't help but think of Wei Zhe's posture of defending that woman. Her heart ached and tears burst down her face.
Flowed down.
That afternoon, Wei Zhe stormed into the room where she was staying at Wei's house angrily, and gave her a loud slap without any explanation. It turned out that she was full of joy and wanted to show her how she looked in her wedding dress. That moment
The slap made her stunned for a moment. Ye Jiarong, who followed him with hazy eyes, leaned against him softly, and he accepted it. By the way, what did he say at that time? He said: "Gu Xiyan
, I didn’t expect you to be such a woman, why don’t you want to see Jiarong so much? She is just an innocent girl, why can’t you tolerate her? "
"Do you know how important innocence is to a girl? Fortunately, nothing happened to Jiarong this time. If something happened to her, wouldn't you feel uneasy about your conscience?"
"Gu Xiyan, could it be said that your previous indifference, kindness and considerateness were all just an act? You have disappointed me so much..."
"Gu Xiyan, apologize to Jiarong."
"..."
Then Ye Jiarong's slap made her fall directly to the ground. The woman's force was so strong that half of her face was swollen, but he thought she fell on purpose and was not even willing to help her.
Give her a look.
On purpose? Hahaha...
When she fell, she hit her head on the corner of the table. Gu Xiyan's head hurt a little, and it felt like a big bump when she touched it. However, she smiled, and her tears couldn't be controlled anymore.
Could it be that the relationship between them couldn't even withstand such a provocation?
She stood up slowly by herself on the floor, looked at him, and said, "I didn't."
But what she received was only his sad and disappointed eyes, and the image of him carefully comforting the woman leaning on his arms like a bird. Her eagerness to explain turned out to be a deliberate cover-up in his eyes.
He believes everything a woman says, but he doesn’t believe anything he says. How can he still say he loves himself?
What a fragile love! What a vulnerable feeling!
She didn't regret what she said later. She didn't understand what it meant to compromise. If he didn't believe her, she could just leave! She was asked to bear this unfounded charge and apologize to the woman who set her up. I'm sorry, but I can't do it!
Before Wei Zhe, she had never met anyone who could be as kind to her as he was. She once truly believed that he would always be so kind to her, forever! Look, how ridiculous the reality is!
She sat at the airport for a long time with her phone turned off, but Wei Zhe didn't make even one call to her. At that time, she told herself in her heart that they were done. From now on, she no longer had to work hard for him and be so particular about him.
She established a good relationship with her well-matched mother. From then on, she no longer felt sad because he was good to other women. She told herself that he, Wei Zhe, was just a passer-by in her life, and even if they fell in love, they would eventually end up in different ways.
It was getting dark. Some people came and some left in the airport terminal, but she still shed tears unconsciously in the corners of her eyes. In her first nineteen years of life, this was the day she shed the most tears.
The day. This day was also the day she decided to bid farewell to the past.
It was at that time that Shang Yiqi appeared. After crying for several hours, her eyes were already red and swollen. Someone suddenly grabbed her chin. She was forced to raise her head and saw a person under the bright lights in the terminal.
The man with a cold expression and a confounded look on his face was frowning displeasedly at her.
The man's pair of deep pupils made it impossible to look into them at a glance. When Gu Xiyan looked into his eyes, she couldn't help but feel a little scared.
"Why are you crying? It's noisy, don't you know?" Gu Xiyan was embarrassed as soon as the man spoke.
She was young and full of energy at the time, so she thought for a while and mumbled unwillingly: "Can't you just cry when you're heartbroken?"
"Oh," the man became interested, "Do you have to cry when you fall out of love? If you fall out of love, it means you are not suitable for each other."
Gu Xiyan didn't know how she could start chatting with a stranger at that time, and even followed him to the capital in the end.
Perhaps it was precisely because Shang Yiqi appeared at the most embarrassing time in her life that she subconsciously relied on and trusted him! It had nothing to do with love, just dependence, just trust! It was also because of her trust in him that the two of them
Years later, when he said, "Yan'er needs a mother, and you are a perfect fit," she agreed without hesitation.
She had seen the girl named Yan'er, and she also knew that she was not Shang Yiqi's biological daughter, but a little girl he had inherited from someone unknown. Marry him and give Yan'er a complete life with him.
Home, this is great! At least, there is always one person who will be happy.

The Chinese New Year is just two days away, and the courtyard is not as quiet as usual. Many young people in the courtyard who often run out don't forget to go home and take a look.
After chatting with her parents-in-law for a while and having lunch together, the little girl jumped up and asked her grandparents to take her out to play. The two old people had nothing to do, so they agreed.
Wei Zhe went back to City T this afternoon. He had already made up his mind to wait here until Gu Xiyan changed her mind and until she needed him, but unexpectedly, a phone call from home forced him to go back. He said that he would be more capricious at the company
You can ignore it, but your mother is ill, and it is said that she is very ill. How can he turn a blind eye to such a big thing?
Before Wei Zhe left, he made an appointment with Gu Xiyan to meet. Gu Xiyan was about to refuse, but then she thought that instead of being unclear between the two of them, it would be better to make it clear, although she thought her attitude was already obvious enough.
"Yanyan, I will be back." Wei Zhe's eyes were full of determination.
Gu Xiyan poured cold water on him: "Wei Zhe, you should know that it has been impossible between us for a long time. My husband is very good to me and my daughter needs me. It is absolutely impossible for me to leave them.
In addition, I also hope that if we meet again, please stop calling me Yanyan, I think this is inappropriate."
Gu Xiyan did not use euphemisms. If you want to break up, just break it off. You must go on the road you have decided on bravely. Wei Zhe does not belong to her after all. And she can no longer belong to him. They just met at the right time.
Got the wrong people. So, they won't have a future.
"Yanyan..." Wei Zhe's face turned pale when he heard this.
Gu Xiyan said "bon voyage" and left, unaware that Wei Zhe, who was already running a fever behind her, was almost unsteady on his feet.
Yanyan, don’t call me Yanyan... Yanyan, are you going to deprive me of the only right I have left?
night.
Shang Yiqi's mother arranged a bedroom on the third floor for him and Gu Xiyan. When he walked into the room, Shang Yiqi caught a glimpse of Gu Xiyan who was sitting on the bed and looking out through the floor-to-ceiling window.
"Xi, is he gone?" Shang Yiqi hugged Gu Xiyan from behind.
"Um."
"Xi, you still have Yan'er and me."
"I understand, Qi."
"He won't compete with me for my wife in the future, right?" Juexiao Gu Xiyan was a little decadent, and it was rare for Shang Yiqi to tease her.
"Qi, I'm just your wife." Gu Xiyan tilted her head back and approached the man's chest.
"Xi, the past is no longer important, people have to look forward." Shang Yiqi kissed Gu Xiyan's cheek.
"Yes, Mr. Lawyer, the past is like smoke, I will move forward." Gu Xiyan nodded her head like a chicken pecking rice, Gu Xiyan said solemnly.
