Faced with Ye Shanshan's question, I fell into silence.
After a long while, I said: "I have had a child, but the child is not mine."
Ye Shanshan suddenly stopped and looked at me strangely.
Because I am relieved, and An Lan also knows these things.
I smiled and said to her, "It's nothing strange. I was divorced before. My ex-wife cheated on her during the marriage, and the child is not mine."
Ye Shanshan frowned tightly and said, "Then it's too miserable for you. Even the child isn't yours?"
I smiled miserably and said, "It's so miserable, but it's all over, and I'm relieved."
She asked me again: "An Lan should know these things about you, right?"
"she knows."
"I didn't expect you to go through so many changes."
I smiled bitterly again and said: "I have experienced a lot of changes. I was still a successful person once."
Ye Shanshan seemed to be very curious, and then asked me: "How do you say it?"
"I studied programming in college. After graduation, I partnered with my classmates to start a company. I was very lucky and everything went smoothly. It only took me two years to become a multimillionaire."
"Is it true?" Ye Shanshan looked at me in disbelief.
"There's no need to lie to you. I later went bankrupt. I was bankrupted by someone else, and the person who ran my company was the person my ex-wife cheated on."
Ye Shanshan opened her eyes wide, looked at me in disbelief, and said, "Aren't you being too dramatic?"
"Isn't that right? I can only say that life is like a play, and play is like life!" I smiled bitterly and sighed.
Ye Shanshan asked with great interest: "What happened to the person your ex-wife cheated on with?"
"I'll go to jail. I'm still in jail now."
"It can be regarded as retribution, but it has caused great harm to you."
"Now that I think about it, it's actually not bad. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have the chance to meet An Lan, right?"
"Well, I really hope that your lovers will eventually get married and not be like me." Ye Shanshan suddenly stopped and did not continue.
In fact, I was also very interested in the man she was talking about. Although she didn't want to say it, I still asked her: "Excuse me, I really want to know what kind of person the man you are talking about is?"
Ye Shanshan was silent for a long time, and then finally said to me: "His name is Fang Lei. It was an accident that I met him. Forget about him, let's not talk about him."
"Remember you told me that he was not dead, so why didn't he come to you? Or did he not know that you were released from prison?"
"I don't know, and I don't want him to come to me again. I'm fine now."
It seemed that she really didn't want to say more, so I stopped asking any more questions. Touching other people's wounds would undoubtedly rub salt into her wounds.
While eating, Ruirui suddenly said to me and Ye Shanshan: "Today the teacher said that there will be an in-person sports meeting at the school this Friday. I hope both parents will attend."
As soon as Ruirui said these words, Ye Shanshan and I looked at each other.
Ye Shanshan then said: "What sports meeting requires all parents to go?"
"The teacher said so, all the parents of my classmates will go."
Ye Shanshan looked at me again, and of course I knew what she meant by looking at me.
After a short silence, I smiled and said, "Go ahead, what's the point?"
Ye Shanshan answered: "What day is it today?"
"Today is Wednesday, which is the day after tomorrow." Ruirui replied immediately.
Ye Shanshan then looked at me again and asked, "Do you have time?"
"I still have time to do activities with Ruirui."
After saying that, I asked Ruirui again: "Ruirui, is it morning or afternoon?"
"The teacher said in the morning."
"Okay, then I'll arrange the time in advance."
"Okay!" Ruirui laughed happily.
Ye Shanshan whispered to me again: "Sorry to trouble you."
"What's the trouble? That's what you said. As Ruirui's godfather, I naturally have the obligation to go."
Ye Shanshan smiled at me and said nothing more.
After the meal, Ruirui took the initiative to take the bowls to the kitchen to wash them. It was always like this during this period. Either I would cook or Ye Shanshan would cook. Ruirui would be responsible for washing the dishes. She couldn't reach the sink, so she put a stick on the floor.
stool.
It’s true that a child from a poor family has long been in charge, but no one taught her these things before. Children learn things very quickly.
Just like washing clothes, I only told her once and he would wash them. Even Ye Shanshan felt ashamed.
I went to wash up and then returned to the room and made a voice call to An Lan. We have been in contact these days. Either she calls me or I call her, even if it is just a few words.
After she answered the phone, I asked her, "What are you doing?"
"Work, what else can I do?"
"You're still working so late?" After saying that, I remembered that there was a time difference between my place and her place.
"Sorry, I forgot about the jet lag," I paused and said to her again, "No matter how busy you are, you should take a break and don't tire yourself out."
"I know, I just want to settle things here quickly and come back as soon as possible."
"Didn't you say you were leaving very quickly?"
An Lan sighed softly and said, "But when I got here, I realized that the situation was more complicated than I thought, and the situation was a bit unsolvable for the time being."
"Is it because of Min Nolan?"
"It's not her. She came to talk to me yesterday, but the talk fell apart." An Lan said with a hint of resentment.
I also sighed heavily and said: "I really want to help you, but there is nothing I can do. You must pay attention to safety when you are alone."
"I'm not alone, I still have my uncle, don't worry."
"How can you make me feel at ease? You are alone in a foreign country. How can we be as safe as we are in a foreign country!"
"I'm really fine, don't worry about me."
"I will arrange the things at hand in a while and come to London to see you."
"Well, tell me before you come."
I responded and said to her: "By the way, I went back to my hometown yesterday and saw the letter left by Liang Jing."
An Lan didn't ask what was written in the letter, but just said to me: "Don't be too sad. You should be good to yourself and don't let down the people who care about you in this world."
"I know, but I didn't know why she went to find Min Wenbin until I read the letter."
"Why?" An Lan finally asked.
I subconsciously lit a cigarette for myself, took two puffs and then said: "She received a call from her mother, saying that she was critically ill and wanted to see her."
"Is this what Min Wenbin did on purpose?"
"Yes, and Liang Jing knew it too, but she still went to see him."
"Why?"
"She said she wanted to get to know her and see her mother one last time. She said in her letter that she suffered from a serious sexually transmitted disease and that her time was running out."
"Ah?!" An Lan was very surprised.
"I was surprised when I saw this passage. I really didn't expect that she was going through such pain. She went to see Min Wenbin and had no intention of coming back alive."
"Damn Min Wenbin, you shameless bastard!" An Lan sneered and cursed.
I rarely hear An Lan say bad words, almost never, but now it is enough to prove how angry she is...
This really makes people angry. Min Wenbin is nothing. He has hurt too many ignorant girls and destroyed too many families.
He deserves to die, even going to the eighteenth level of hell will not be enough to wash away his sins.
