She agreed so decisively … Even though his tone of voice was still emotionless, he could still feel her joy.
Lu Bancheng felt as if something was strangling his neck, making it hard for him to breathe.
Seeing that he didn't have much of a reaction, Xu Wennuan didn't say anything else and got out of the car.
The second she closed the door, Lu Bancheng suddenly called out to her, "Nuannuan."
Xu Wennuan turned around.
Lu Bancheng opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but no sound came out. After a moment, he said, "See you on Monday."
"Okay." Xu Wennuan nodded, closed the door, and walked calmly into the subway station.
Lu Bancheng stared at the entrance of the station, which was filled with people entering and exiting, for a while before his gaze shifted to a building not far away.
He had called out to her just now because he wanted to apologize, but when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he felt that it wasn't necessary.
It doesn't matter if she forgives me or not, as long as she's living a good life.
On Monday morning, Xu Wennuan received a text from Lu Bancheng asking her to meet him at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau at nine in the morning.
Xu Wennuan called her boss and asked for an hour's leave. At eight o 'clock, she took her household registration booklet and took the subway from her home to the bureau.
The roads were a little congested during the morning rush hour on Monday. After Xu Wennuan arrived, she waited for about 20 minutes before she saw Lu Bancheng's car slowly drive into the entrance of the bureau.
Lu Bancheng parked the car, opened the door, and bent down to stand beside the car. He took out his household registration booklet and wallet and strode over to Xu Wennuan.
"There was a traffic jam. Sorry," Lu Bancheng explained simply.
Xu Wennuan didn't reply. She turned around and walked into the bureau.
In less than half an hour, the divorce procedures were completed.
After leaving the bureau, Lu Bancheng wanted to offer to send Xu Wennuan home, but after some thought, he decided against it.
Xu Wennuan was still the same as before, as if she had nothing to say to him. She walked to the side of the road and held out her hand to hail a taxi.
This scene instantly reminded Lu Bancheng of the afternoon when they had gotten their marriage certificate. She hadn't been happy about it. She had only said that she was tired and wanted to go home to rest.
It had only been a few short months, and the world had turned upside down between them.
Very soon, a taxi stopped in front of Xu Wennuan. Just as she was about to step forward and open the door, Lu Bancheng couldn't help but call out to her, "Xu Wennuan."
Xu Wennuan turned around and met his gaze with some surprise, as if wondering why he was still standing in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Lu Bancheng stared at her for a long time without blinking. After a long time, he said, "Goodbye, Nuannuan."
Xu Wennuan wasn't sure if she was imagining things, but she felt that there was something strange about him that she couldn't quite put her finger on. Her heart skipped a beat, and after a while, she replied, "Goodbye."
Lu Bancheng's eyes suddenly felt a little dry. He nodded slightly and didn't say anything else. His gaze fell on the car parked nearby.
Xu Wennuan continued to stare at Lu Bancheng's profile for a few seconds until the taxi driver pressed his horn to urge her to get in. Only then did she hurriedly open the door and get in.
As the taxi drove further and further away, Lu Bancheng stood at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, holding the divorce certificate, motionless like a statue.
