Shen Luyan closed his eyes, relaxed for a moment and then opened them.
After he recovered, he really couldn't find anything to say for a while.
say what?
I won't hit you again? She may be a heinous man in his heart now.
Or am I sorry, I regret the impulsive slap that day?
I'm sorry. The more you say it, the cheaper it becomes.
Shen Luyan's lip line was very straight. He took a deep breath, and his chest seemed to throb. This vague tingling feeling was the most tormenting.
With a pale face, he brought the topic back to the beginning: "When will you come back?"
Of course, Shen Luyan knew that her mother was still in the nursing home, and it was impossible for her to fly away and never return to Beicheng.
But within just a few days, he felt uncomfortable.
Only when you have a grasp of her schedule can you feel at ease.
Jiang Zhi had already experienced his weird possessiveness, "Shen Luyan, I'm dead."
Shen Luyan subconsciously said: "Wait."
Jiang Zhi endured it and did not press the hang up button.
Shen Luyan said: "Come back soon, I will wait for you."
Jiang Zhi felt a strange feeling in her heart. She couldn't explain it and hung up the phone silently.
She shook off the messy thoughts in her mind, brought the freshly cooked glutinous rice balls to the dining table, and ate the rice dumplings made with rice wine.
After taking enough rest, Jiang Zhi went to the private bank that his mother mentioned in the afternoon.
If you make a reservation in advance and pass the time, you don’t need to wait any longer.
After checking the identity information, the staff handed her the key to the safe. After hesitating for a while, he told her: "Your father, the husband of the account holder, came here once before."
Jiang Zhi had a bad feeling in his heart.
The staff continued to explain: "At that time, your father came to us to ask for the key with the certificate that your mother was seriously ill and the signatures they had signed before. Because the documents were complete, we gave him the key."
Jiang Zhi rubbed his temples and was not surprised at all.
She has become accustomed to these unsatisfactory situations.
There are not many valuables left in the safe.
The jewelry her mother and grandma left for her were even missing.
Jiang Zhi closed the safe. The only thing he was thankful for was that all the money in the account was deposited on a regular basis. Even Jiang Beishan couldn't withdraw it back then.
Jiang Zhi took a look at the balance in his account. It was neither too much nor too little.
Jiang Zhi took the bankbook and left the bank.
She took a taxi back home and contacted Lawyer Li in the process, taking this opportunity to consult with him about how to handle the divorce.
Li He received her message and immediately asked where she was?
Jiang Zhi was almost home by then, so he reported his address.
Li He was silent for a few seconds, and then asked her cautiously: "Is it convenient for me to go to your house and have a chat?"
Jiang Zhi trusts Lawyer Li very much. In her heart, Li He is really a very good person.
Back then, my family was poor and I had to pull myself out of the quagmire.
She thought for a while: "Okay."
She didn't mean anything else, nor was she being on guard against him, and then added: "There is a new Internet celebrity coffee shop at the entrance of the alley. The environment is not bad. We can go and sit there."
She could also buy him a cup of coffee by the way.
Lawyer Li has really helped her a lot over the years.
Li He said yes.
He got off work early and left the office.
The partners are very surprised, how come Li He, a workaholic, gets off work early one day?
People in the office winked and made fun of him: "Lawyer Li, you're not going on a date, are you?"
Li He neither admitted nor denied: "You guys go to work and leave."
He drove quickly to the location Jiang Zhi sent him.
I was very anxious when I parked my car, and I was also a little anxious when I hurriedly ran to the door of the coffee shop.
His breathing was a little breathless, and he saw the girl sitting by the window through the glass window.
She had a very cute bun today, with clear facial features, delicate eyebrows, and her skin seemed to be getting whiter with the sun. She held her chin, with a somewhat innocent look on her face.
Just like when Li He saw her for the first time.
She was raised by her family to be a very innocent and beautiful little princess.
Wearing a delicate and beautiful little skirt, she secretly bought candies in the store. Holding the candies in her arms, she was about to sneak back to the room quietly from downstairs, when he happened to be a guest at her home and caught her eye.
The little girl reluctantly stuffed two candies into his hand, "Brother, don't complain to my mother."
"Mom won't let me eat sweets."
Li He couldn't help laughing, he knew it.
I heard her mother say that she likes to eat sweets but can't control her mouth.
Her mother was afraid that she would damage her teeth, so she refused to let her eat more.
The little girl is straightforward and innocent, but not arrogant. Instead, she is very well-behaved, but she is a bit greedy.
When Li He wanted to help her, he was helpless.
She was taken away by her father and later married.
By the time he could help her, she no longer needed him.
Li He entered the coffee shop and spoke before she spoke: "Are you going to file a divorce lawsuit?"
Jiang Zhi thought for a while: "If he still doesn't agree."
"Okay, I'll be your lawyer and help you litigate the case."
"No, no, no, I hired a lawyer."
"It's okay. My partners and I are planning to open a new law firm in Beicheng next month and have already found an office location." Li He paused and said, "If you don't mind, you can come to our law firm then. Can you help me?"
Jiang Zhi just thought he was being polite. She didn't study law, so she couldn't help him much.
She was very grateful to Li He.
I don't know how to repay him.
After the two of them sat in the cafe for a while, it started to get dark.
Li He said he would send her home, but Jiang Zhi didn't refuse.
Unfortunately, Jiang Zhi didn't expect Sheng Xizhou to be standing at the door of his house like a doorkeeper.
She pretended not to see Sheng Xizhou and waved to Li He from the stairs: "Lawyer Li, be careful on the way back."
Li He couldn't hold it back and raised his hand to touch her head: "Well, see you another day."
Jiang Zhi looked at his leaving figure, withdrew his gaze and was about to go home.
Sheng Xizhou had already walked up behind her and grabbed her wrist: "Jiang Zhi, are you going to have an affair with him again when you come back?"
Jiang Zhi couldn't shake his hand away.
Sheng Xizhou did not rush to the hospital today, but took a walk in Hexiang.
He has almost no memory of this alley.
I didn't meet anyone familiar either.
But the neighbors around him didn't seem surprised to see him, as if he had lived here for a long time before.
Sheng Xizhou was quite sensitive. He could tell that no one welcomed him in this alley.
Everyone will subconsciously take two steps back when they see him.
Was he ever so annoying?
Vague memories seem to be gradually flashing back in my mind.
Being ostracized, scorned, and bullied.
It seems like living in the gutter, the kind of darkness that never sees the light of day.
Everything is cold.
In the dark world, there seemed to be a pair of warm and soft hands that held his hand when he was at his darkest and coldest moment.
The images in my memory are blurry, and the sounds are also blurry.
"We will be friends from now on."
"I will hook up with you and I will never lie to you!"
"OK?"
Sheng Xizhou seemed to hear himself saying good things.
Then the pain interrupted the flashbacks and jumps in his mind like a dream.
