The next day, Lin Jia was at work, and Liang Qian brought in an uninvited guest - Lu Wan. When she saw her, she instinctively went on alert and asked coldly: "What are you doing here?"
Lu Wan smiled charmingly and sat down slowly, with a calm and breezy attitude, which seemed to make Lin Jia too nervous. "Relax, I won't eat you! I came here to announce a good thing."
"What good can a person like you do?"
"It's not a good thing for you, but it is for me. I'm getting married, and you should know who the groom is without asking!" She smiled and took out a bright red invitation card from her bag and handed it to her.
"You must be a little unhappy about your ex-husband's wedding. However, Anan and I both hope that your ex-wife can come to attend! You promised it before, so you won't break the appointment, right?"
Lin Jia shook her head, feeling ironic. "Sometimes I really admire how shameless you are. All the scandalous things you have done have been known to Anan, but you still have the nerve to marry him. Lu Wan, do you know?
How do you write the word 'shame'?"
"Do you know how to write it?" She laughed and asked: "I have been a shameless parasite for more than ten years, and I also raped my third uncle, causing him to turn against you and the family. At the same time, I have two boats, and my ex-husband
You are so entangled, I think you want all the men in the world to surround you. Lin Jia, you are the one who doesn’t know how to write ‘shame’!”
"It's true that a thief shouts to catch a thief. I've seen a lot of shameless people, but I've never seen a woman as shameless as you!"
"Come on, stop pretending to be sanctimonious and accuse me. I want to vomit. I'm not here to quarrel with you today. I'm here to tell you the good news and invite you to my wedding. The bride is here in person.
You're so proud of me for inviting me! I'm so sincere, and you will definitely reward me when the time comes."
Lin Jia rolled her eyes and said sarcastically: "I'm afraid your purpose is not to invite me, but to show off!"
"So what?"
"But your behavior makes no sense at all. It will only make me feel more pitiful and ridiculous. Do you think that to this day, I will still believe that Anan married you because he loves you? God knows what despicable and shameless methods you used.
Force him. Are you so desperate that you want to force a man to marry you? How pitiful! If you weren't in a hurry to marry him for fear that he would regret it, you wouldn't have rushed to schedule the wedding to next week. You are just like this
Hate to get married?"
Her sarcasm pierced Lu Wan's heart. He was gnashing his teeth with hatred in his heart, but he still smiled on the surface. It seemed that no matter how many insults he put, they were insignificant and could not hurt her at all. "You can say whatever you like, sour.
Grape mentality, I understand!”
"Am I sour? At most, I think you are hateful and Anan is pitiful! You are begging for nothing and using all your means to marry him. Don't you just want to hurt me? But let me tell you, this is of no use. As long as you have
If you love him at all, you should let him go and don't regard him as the target of your revenge against me."
"How long do you want to pretend to be the Virgin?" Lu Wan frowned and interrupted her impatiently, as if he were a hypocritical and disgusting mouse, "Now that Third Uncle and Ruan Yunan are not here, there is no need for you to pretend in front of me.
You are protecting him, but you are just trying to show off, so why are you pretending to be a Mary Su? Are you bothering me? When will it be your turn to dictate my relationship with Anan? "
"Don't forget, he and I were childhood sweethearts. Can you, an outsider, destroy our relationship for so many years? Do you think you can really destroy me by joining forces with Yin Shuang and forcing Situ Fei to reveal what happened back then? I would have ruined it long ago.
I told you, I, Lu Wan, am not a fuel-efficient lamp. There is no way you can defeat me if you want to!"
"You say you are so noble, but behind your back you are inciting your third uncle to do all kinds of harmful things to me? It's all because of you that I'm where I am today. I'm not having a good time, and none of you can escape responsibility.
!”
"The wrong person is obviously you, but you only blame others!" Lin Jia felt very ridiculous, "I don't think I'm a bad-hearted person, but you...you deserve all the torture you have suffered. I hope you
The more miserable your fate is, the better. Even if I watch you go to hell, I won’t help you, that’s where you should go!”
"Don't worry..." Lu Wan smiled brightly, stood up slowly, straightened the corner of his clothes, raised his eyes and smiled seductively at her, "Even if I go to hell, I will drag you with me! Oh, by the way...
Now that there is one more person... it's even more interesting..." Her eyes fell on Lin Jia's belly, and she smiled strangely, "This competition will become more and more interesting, so have fun!"
…
Lin Jia was a little tired after working all day and wanted to take a good rest after get off work. But Lu Qing had to have a meeting and she didn't want to disturb him, so she made an appointment with Yin Shuang to go shopping and planned to buy some maternity clothes. There was a traffic jam at that time. She arrived first, Yin Shuang was still stuck in the road,
So I started shopping in the store by myself.
She chose two sets of winter maternity dresses, put them on and looked around in front of the fitting room.
"This color suits you perfectly!"
Suddenly a male voice came from behind, and Ruan Yunan's figure appeared in the mirror. Lin Jia was stunned for a moment and turned around. "Why are you here?"
It had only been more than half a month since they last saw him, and she felt that he had lost a lot of weight. His arrogance had faded away, and he had become much calmer. He looked like a completely different man. Although he was still handsome, his temperament was completely different, which made her somewhat unrecognizable.
She was calm, but his thinness still made her feel nervous. She instinctively felt that he must have been having a bad time during this period.
The clerk came up to me with a big smile and said, "You have really good eyesight. Like your husband said, you have fair skin. This color really matches your skin tone and you look great!"
"He is not me..."
"The two sets she tried on, please wrap them up for me!"
"Okay, please wait!"
Lin Jia opened her mouth to refuse, "I'm afraid this is not good? I just tried it, and I didn't say I wanted to buy it. There are other styles over there!"
"The style is not important, what is important is that it suits you!" Ruan Yunan's eyes are clear, like stars washed by water. They are clear and do not contain a trace of impurities. At the same time, there is a faint flash of uncontrollable love, which is too hot to hide at all.
.
"You look really good in that suit! I know you don't want Lu Qing to be unhappy, or in other words, you yourself don't want to leave any trace of me in your life to avoid thinking of me. But, I really
I want to give it to you! Just treat it as a gift from a friend to celebrate your pregnancy, don’t refuse me, okay?”
His eyes were full of pleading, and there was a hint of fear of being hurt, which made Lin Jia feel that rejecting him was a heinous thing. She had already felt guilty when she said she would never see him again in person.
To refuse again would seem too unkind. After thinking about it, I had no choice but to nod. "Then... thank you!"
She tried to act as natural as possible, "What a coincidence! Why are you here?"
"It's not a coincidence, I came here specifically to see you. Do you have time? Let's have a cup of coffee!"
"I, I made an appointment with Yin Shuang, next time!"
Ruan Yunan felt a little hurt, but didn't show it, smiling. "When is the next time you mentioned? You don't want to see me so much?"
"No, I just..."
"I don't need much time, ten minutes, okay?"
Her fingers tightened slightly, and she sighed silently in her heart, "Yeah! Okay!"
The two of them chose a nearby coffee shop and each ordered a glass of juice. From the position next to the window, they could clearly see the customers coming and going outside. Lin Jia didn't know what to say, so she simply turned her face away and stared out the window in trance.
.
Ruan Yunan sat across from her, staring silently at her side face. He didn't want to show his infatuation too obviously, but he told himself that there was not much time left, and he didn't want to work so hard to hide his love anymore.
Feelings. Anyway, she already knows. No matter how he hides it, she knows it, and the atmosphere is inevitably awkward.
Now that he has decided to come to see her, he has already made preparations. This is the last time, he told himself, this is the last time that he will meet her in his current identity. One week later, everything will change, and he just wants to cherish it
Now.
The sun kept shining into the shopping mall, shining on the bright glass windows, blurring her profile. Her outline was plumper and more beautiful than before, like crystal jade, full and soft.
Her hair was blowing gently in the breeze and sunshine, and it brushed across her eyebrows playfully. She unconsciously hooked her hair behind her ears. This slight move actually made him feel suffocatingly beautiful. He was even a little jealous of her.
His hair could touch her cheek. He wished he could touch her face without any scruples and hold her gently in his arms.
In the past, he had countless opportunities, but fate arranged that they missed them. Now, even looking at her quietly is a luxury. He is like someone who has been together for a long time, his eyes glued to her face, cherishing her fiercely.
He cherishes every second, greedily wanting to imprint everything about her deeply into his mind. In this way, when he thinks about it in the cold and dull second half of his life, he can at least feel a little warmth and feel that he has been happy.
Ruan Yunan smiled and lamented that he was still young, but his mentality had aged so much. A tangled love had worn away his vitality. He was like a walking zombie, or an old man in his twilight years, exhausted mentally and physically, and would no longer love.
.
"You have gained a lot of weight, and it seems that you are living a good life!" He raised his lips, and his eyes only became so bright when he saw her, shining with a unique brilliance.
Only then did she look at him, trying hard to joke and try to ease the awkward atmosphere. "Why don't I like hearing what you say? Don't you know that girls care about their weight and hate hearing people say they are fat?"
"You were too thin before, it would be better if you were a little fatter. Now that you are pregnant, it is inevitable that you will look so good!"
"It's not bad. Now the two of us eat a lot and gain a lot of weight. After giving birth, we have to work hard to lose weight!"
"How long has it been since we last met?"
"More than half a month!"
"No, thirteen days and eight hours!"
Lin Jia was stunned. She tried to ease the atmosphere but felt a little embarrassed again. She didn't know what to say.
"You may have forgotten it, but I remember it very clearly."
"Anan... you don't need to explain anything. I can't get out on my own, and it has nothing to do with you! I'm sorry, I don't want to put pressure on you, just pretend you didn't hear it."
Lin Jia could only pretend that she didn't hear anything and changed the subject, "What have you been busy with recently?"
"There is nothing special about the company. If there is a new situation, it is... I am getting married again!" He said this with a smile, completely in a joking tone, but with a sense of saying no.
The self-deprecating and bitterness that comes out of it makes people feel uncomfortable. The more calm it is, the more heart-wrenching it becomes.
She whispered "Yes" and said, "Lu Wan came to see me this morning and sent an invitation!"
"Has she looked for you? Has she ever..."
"Don't worry, she didn't dare to do anything to me in the company. She just said some things that I didn't like to hear. I'm used to it and won't take it seriously. I just don't understand you. Didn't I say that I won't get married?
?Since everyone knows what happened back then, why..."
"What happened back then, and whether I get married or not, don't have much impact on me anymore! Anyway, my life is already like this, and it won't matter if it gets worse." Ruan Yunan shrugged, completely giving up on himself, and it didn't matter.
Attitude. "We are all going to get married anyway, but it makes no difference who we marry? The most important thing to me now is your happiness!"
She smelled something unusual and frowned. "Did she use me to threaten you and force you to get married?"
"Nothing..." Ruan Yunan took a sip of juice and teased her with a smile. "Are you reading too many conspiracy theories or too many romance novels? How can there be so many threats and coercion? It's so bloody!"
She tried to find a hint of deception in his eyes, but there was none, so she became even more confused. "It was not easy for you to marry her. What happened?"
"I already said, it's okay. She and I are going to get married soon anyway. Promise me, don't ask for the reason anymore, okay?" He looked into her eyes seriously, his smile was still so nice and gentle. "Many times.
, the reason is not important, what is important is the result. I have nothing else to ask for now, I just hope that you and the child in your belly are well and that you are happy, that is enough. The rest is really not important!"
"Ruan Yunan..."
"If you still consider me a friend, come to my wedding and bless me!" He thought, let him be selfish for once. Since she no longer loves him, his wedding cannot have an impact on her. Then, at least he is like
Looking at her at the wedding, imagining that she is his bride, letting him have a sweet dream, this is his last wish. The last fantasy, nothing has changed, they are still in love.
However, Lin Jia's response disappointed him.
"I'm sorry, I won't go to your wedding! I hope you are happy, but I will not bless your marriage. Because all I see is misfortune. Although I don't know why you changed your mind, I am sure that
It's not your intention. I can't advise you, I can only pretend that I know nothing! Besides, I don't want Lu Qing to be unhappy, so I hope you can understand."
Ruan Yunan stared at her blankly, a look of disappointment gradually appeared on his face. This was actually what he expected, but he had been deceiving himself and was unwilling to believe it. In the end, she still rejected him, and she was no longer the same person as before.
Lin Jia only had him in her heart. All she cared about was the feelings of Lu Qing, the man she loved now!
My heart kept sinking, sinking into a deeper and colder abyss, but a smile appeared at the corner of my mouth. "Yes! I understand! Although it is a pity that you can't come to my wedding, when you and Lu Qing got married,
Definitely invite me, if...he doesn't mind! I also want to see you in your wedding dress again. When will you get married? Do you have any plans?"
"The wedding may have to wait until the child is born. I don't want to wear a wedding dress with a big belly. It won't look good! However, we have already received the marriage certificate! The wedding is just a formality."
Ruan Yunan's fingers suddenly stiffened, as if he had been hit hard. His brain was confused and he couldn't bear it. It became difficult to maintain a false smile. "Did you get the certificate? What, when did it happen?"
"last week!"
"Oh...last week..." He murmured, his lips turned white, he felt his heart was bleeding, and all the muscles in his body were stiff and painful.
He had already lost, but waiting for the death penalty was the same as being suddenly sentenced to death. The news of their marriage undoubtedly gave him a fatal blow. But at this moment, in this situation, he could only bless them with his bleeding heart,
What else could he do? Could he still beg her to change her mind?
"That's good. Get your marriage certificate early and feel at ease! I, I have something else to do and I have to leave first. Didn't you make an appointment with Yin Shuang? Just wait for her here!"
He didn't dare to look at her again, finished his words incoherently, and stumbled out of the cafe. He rushed into the bathroom, turned on the faucet, picked up a few handfuls of cold water, and splashed it on his face.
Ruan Yunan, please be more sober, what are you still expecting? She no longer belongs to you, are you still expecting her to come back? Do you still think you are not miserable enough?
He raised his head and looked at himself in the mirror. His face was as pale as paper, and water was still dripping down awkwardly. He couldn't tell whether it was water or tears...
…
Lu Wan kept calling Ruan Yunan, but he didn't answer. She called the person sent to follow him and found out that he was actually with Lin Jia. She became furious and threw the phone away.
"Bang--" The phone was smashed into pieces.
She was so angry that she took a while to swallow her breath, softened her expression and walked out. Qi Fei came up to her with a smile. "Did Anan answer the phone? When will you go home?"
"He said there was something going on at the company tonight and asked me to go find him."
"Isn't that the food you cooked was wasted? Why is this kid so ignorant? I'm going to call him and scold him!"
"No, I'll go to the company to find him. We'll eat out tonight!"
"Is that so?" Qi Fei noticed that something was wrong with her mood, but didn't bother to ask further questions, so she nodded, "That's fine! I'm getting married next week, so I quickly urged him to take the wedding photos. Don't worry about the wedding banquet.
Give it to me and I’ll make sure it’s done properly!”
"Thank you, aunt, I'll go first then!"
As soon as he turned around, Lu Wan lowered his face, gritted his teeth, and looked like he was going to kill Ruan Yunan.
…
The sudden appearance of Ruan Yunan put Lin Jia out of the mood for shopping, so she picked two items and gave up. Yin Shuang went to the parking lot to get her car. She was waiting on the side of the road, lost in thought, when a car suddenly sped over and stopped at the parking lot.
Several tall men rushed down in front of her and dragged her into the car.
