Yu Keyao had no choice but to return home first. But as soon as she entered the door, she heard Liang Lihua's sobbing voice. "Big Brother, Big Sister-in-law, please be the judge. Ever since I married into the Yu family, I've been serious and dutiful. I've been worrying about this family. If I hadn't shamelessly gone to the Song Family every day to beg, would Yu Zidong be where he is today? Now, for the sake of the company, for the sake of profits, he wants to divorce me! "
"I've been with him for almost 30 years. I've suffered so much with him in the early days of his business, but now he's forgotten all about me. For the sake of money, he wants to abandon me. What kind of person is he?" Liang Lihua cried, her face full of tears.
Since the divorce, she had no time to clean herself up. Now she was wearing no makeup, and the spots on her face were particularly obvious. She looked very embarrassed.
"Lihua, don't worry. We'll definitely help you." Liang Lihua's sister-in-law, Yuan Shushu, also said fiercely, "Yu Zidong really thinks that there's no one in the Liang Family who can bully us! He wants to get a divorce so easily? No way! Even if we really want to get a divorce, we should divide his family property and let him leave with nothing! "
Liang Lihua sobbed. She knew that Yuan Shushu was not really for her own good. It was clear that Yuan Shushu was afraid that she would rely on her family after the divorce. She wanted Yu Zidong to leave with nothing. She also hoped that when she had money, she wouldn't need to rely on her family.
After all, Ma Shuying was just afraid that she would be taken advantage of.
At this time, seeing Yu Keyao come in, Yuan Shushu stood up, pointed at Yu Keyao's head and scolded, "Your mother gave birth to you and raised you. Now it's all because of you! Now, for the sake of your own life, you stand on Yu Zidong's side, completely disregarding your mother's life. Raising an ungrateful person like you is simply too cruel. "
Yuan Shushu poked Yu Keyao's head with her index finger. Yu Keyao felt pain and frowned, shouting, "What are you doing!"
"What am I doing? What are you talking about? I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of your mother, you unfilial ungrateful person! "Yuan Shushu rolled up her sleeves and was about to hit her, but Yu Keyao pushed her hard first.
"It's all her own doing! What can I do? Anyone with half a brain wouldn't just apologize to Song Yu one second, and then scold her the next! "Yu Keyao shrieked." If she hadn't angered Qi Chengzhi, the company wouldn't have been in trouble! Now that things have come to this, who is to blame? "
"You —" Liang Lihua looked up at Yu Keyao abruptly. She couldn't believe that Yu Keyao had pushed all the blame to her.
"Yu Keyao! I really doted on you for nothing! Ever since I was young, I've always been on your side! Qi Chengzhi has already gotten together with Song Yu, yet you still insist on interfering. Fine, I'll support you. I've offended your uncle because of you! You said that Song Yu stole Qi Chengzhi. Fine, I support you. I scolded Song Yu and her parents for you. Who do you think I offended Qi Chengzhi? I'm in this situation because of you. Your father wanted to divorce me for some money, but you betrayed me at this time. "
"Yu Keyao, I'm not someone else, I'm your mother! I've done so much for you, but now you're blaming me, saying that I'm the one who did it! " Liang Lihua stood up abruptly and rushed to Yu Keyao with tears all over her face. She raised her hand and slapped her. "Are you still a human?! You're really a member of the Yu family, just like your father. You can ignore everything for your own benefit! "
"Where do you think I was just now? In order to plead for you, I went to find Song Yu, but I was stopped. I couldn't even see her face! Are you saying that I'm an ingrate? "Yu Keyao covered her face and cried indignantly.
"You did it for your mother? You did it for yourself! You were afraid that even if your parents got divorced, the company would still be in trouble! Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Qi Chengzhi only promised not to hurt Dong Hua again, but he had no obligation to help Dong Hua get back on track. That's why you went to beg Song Yu! Shameless thing, you're distorting right and wrong! "Yuan Shushu scolded, spittle flying everywhere.
"You … why are your words so unpleasant!" Yu Keyao trembled with anger.
"I have even worse words, do you want to hear them?" Yuan Shushu spat and scolded.
For the first time, Liang Lihua didn't stand on Yu Keyao's side. She just covered her face and kept crying.
"Yuan Shushu, this is my home, this is the Yu family. Who do you think I am? Who do you think you are to occupy the Yu family and refuse to leave? Ever since my father filed for divorce, you and your wife came here with the slogan of helping my mother. You just stayed here and refused to leave. No matter how long you two have been here, my father hasn't been home! Yuan Shushu, this is the Yu family. What are you doing here? What right do you have to poke and scold me here?! "Yu Keyao was not to be outdone. She screamed and scolded.
"You don't care about age, you have no upbringing!"
…
…
While the Yu family was very lively, Cheng Dongge looked through the rearview mirror at Qi Chengyue, who leaned her head against the window.
She lowered her head, and her long hair blocked her face, so he couldn't see her expression.
Cheng Dongge had already driven for a while, but Qi Chengyue hadn't said a word.
"Miss Qi." Cheng Dongge glanced at the rearview mirror. "Where do you want to go?"
She definitely didn't want to go back to the company. Cheng Dongge felt that she wouldn't want to go back to Jian Yi's home either. He didn't know if she should go back to the Qi family.
Qi Chengyue didn't speak for a long time. Just when Cheng Dongge thought that she didn't want to speak, he heard Qi Chengyue's weak voice from behind. "If it's possible, just drive me around a few times. I can't think of where to go right now. I'm sorry."
Cheng Dongge glanced at the rearview mirror. It was hard to imagine Qi Chengyue apologizing to someone.
Her weak and helpless appearance at this moment was indeed heartbreaking.
Cheng Dongge drove for a long time without saying a word. When he looked at the rearview mirror again, he suddenly couldn't see Qi Chengyue.
Finally, he parked the car by the side of the road. The road was green and the grass extended out to a lake. It was a good picnic spot in B City. However, there weren't many people at this time of day.
Occasionally, there would be one or two people walking by the lake. However, because they were far away, they wouldn't notice the situation by the side of the road.
Cheng Dongge got out of the car and walked to the back door. When he opened the door, he was stunned.
Qi Chengyue wrapped her arms around herself. Her upper body was tightly pressed against the seat. Her head was almost touching the back of the seat in front of her, and her face was buried in her knees.
She didn't make a sound at all, but her shoulders and back couldn't stop trembling. The trembling was especially intense.
Cheng Dongge opened his mouth and wanted to call out to her, but no sound came out. It was as if something was stuck in his throat and chest. It was very painful.
He stood like this outside the car door for a long time. Qi Chengyue's posture didn't change. However, the trembling became more and more intense, and she seemed more and more helpless.
"Miss Qi, you …" Cheng Dongge squatted down and gently placed his palm on her shoulder.
He felt Qi Chengyue's body stiffen and stopped trembling. It was as if she was stubbornly holding it in and didn't want to embarrass herself in front of others.
She probably didn't realize that the car had stopped and that he had opened the door to her side.
He watched as she maintained this posture for a while before slowly straightening her body and raising her head.
When Cheng Dongge saw her appearance, he froze in place and didn't know how to react.
Her long, curly hair was loose, and some strands of hair were stuck to her face from her tears. She didn't look delicate or pretty, and even looked very pathetic. Her face was stained from crying, and her eyes were red and swollen. Even now, there were still tears in her eyes, but she stubbornly held them back.
But the more he looked at Qi Chengyue's helpless appearance and thought of how proud she used to be. His heart couldn't help but ache for her.
"I'm sorry. Can you … can you let me be alone …" Before she could finish speaking, she was pulled into his arms.
She heard Cheng Dongge's deep voice ring in her ear. "Cry."
His voice was steady and soothing, but when she heard it, she couldn't hold it in anymore. She couldn't hold back her tears anymore, couldn't hold back her cries anymore, couldn't hold back her cries any longer. It was as if the dam in her heart that had been on the verge of collapsing had suddenly collapsed.
Qi Chengyue's tears suddenly flowed out, but she still forcefully gritted her teeth and tightly pursed her lips. Only when she reached her limit did she let out a small whimper from her throat.
Until she felt a steady and warm palm on the back of her head, gently caressing her hair. Even though he didn't say another word, just silently comforting and supporting her, the impact was even greater than before.
Qi Chengyue finally couldn't hold it in anymore. With a loud "Wahhh —", she cried loudly.
She cried like a child. Her cries weren't pleasant at all. They were rough and miserable, and when she cried too hard, she would hiccup. Her nose was blocked by snot, and it slowly mixed with her tears.
"Why … Do you deserve to be trampled on because you love someone? Why do some people only use marriage as a bargaining chip to gain benefits? Why do they have to turn marriage into benefits, marry for benefits, and use love as a package to deceive others? Why didn't he find someone else? Why did he have to lie to me? Why did he have to mix money and benefits into it? Even if he did it for money and his future, am I so unworthy of him treating me well? Am I so unworthy of anyone's love and respect? "
Cheng Dongge listened to her cry. Her body trembled more and more violently in his arms, and her cries grew louder and louder.
He felt his shirt become wet, and some of her tears flowed down his neck and into his collar.
Cheng Dongge didn't know how to comfort her. With his status, it didn't seem appropriate for him to say anything. He could only silently caress her hair and comfort her.
Qi Chengyue cried for a long time. Suddenly, he heard her call his name. "Cheng Dongge …"
Cheng Dongge was a little stunned. She had always called him Special Assistant Cheng, so suddenly hearing her call him by his full name was a little strange.
"Your fiancée treats you like that … Don't you feel bad? She also went behind your back to find a rich man, thinking that he could give her more men. Why … Why do they all have to be like this? Can't you give her what she wants? Then how much does she need to be satisfied? Is it not enough to have a man who treats her well and allows her to live a carefree life? "
"I … don't know." Cheng Dongge's voice was hoarse, and his throat was very dry.
"How long … How long have you been together?" Qi Chengyue asked while crying.
"Three years. The first time we met was when I was in my senior year. At that time, she was a freshman. One day, she suddenly appeared in front of me and shouted that she liked me in front of a lot of people on campus. Then, she ran away with a red face. She was clearly an introverted person, but she dared to do such a bold thing. "
"After that, she always appeared by my side. She didn't talk much. When I played basketball, she handed me towels and water. She volunteered to help me on the basketball team. When I was studying, she saved a seat for me. After class, she waited for me at the door and followed me. From time to time, she would say a few words to me. Her face was always very red. But at that time, I had already found a job as Young Master Cheng's assistant. At that time, I was a poor student. I could work hard in B City, but I couldn't give a woman a good life. "
"Since I can't give a woman a good life, I can't let her live a luxurious life. But at least she won't suffer with me. Why should I drag her down when I don't have the ability? So, until I graduated, I didn't get together with her. We would only contact each other through text messages. "
"Later, my job got better and better, and she didn't have a boyfriend all these years. It wasn't until the reunion three years ago that we officially got together. When I had the ability to give her a good life, I proposed to her. I felt that if I couldn't afford a happy marriage, it would be very irresponsible of me to marry her. But I didn't expect that after so many years, she wouldn't persevere at this time. "
"Are you asking me if I'm sad? I'm really sad. After all, she's been with me for three years. In these three years, she's in every little thing. I'm used to her being in my life. And all I've done is to give her a good life. I'm very sorry that she couldn't persevere with me to the end. When I could satisfy all her demands, she left me. I'm also very angry at myself. Why didn't I work harder, marry her earlier, and give her a better life? Maybe then she wouldn't have finally found someone else because she couldn't take it anymore. "
"I think that the reason you're feeling so sad right now is similar to what I'm thinking. After all, he was the person you loved before, and maybe you still love him now. He's the person you've lived with for so long, and he's the person you're willing to marry. Now that you've ended up like this, your heart is filled with disappointment and frustration. "
"Actually, it's not that you're not worthy of love, it's that he's not worthy of love. You deserve better, my fiancée … "Cheng Dongge paused. Qi Chengyue seemed to hear his bitter smile." It's my ex-fiancée. She felt that she deserved better, so she left me. And now, you left him because you deserve better. Jian Yi doesn't know how to love at all. You deserve someone who knows how to love. It's him who doesn't deserve you. "
"It's not like that," Qi Chengyue said in a low voice. Her forehead was still pressed against his chest.
Because of her rebuttal, Cheng Dongge froze for a moment. He lowered his head and could only see her hair. He couldn't see her face.
"You're very good, your fiancée … your ex-fiancée. She left you not because you weren't good enough, nor because she deserved better. It's because she didn't care about her blessings, wasn't content, and thought too highly of herself. I think that her choice to leave you was the wrong one. There will be a time when she regrets it," Qi Chengyue said with conviction.
Cheng Dongge froze. He didn't think that was what she was going to say. He thought that she was going to refute his last sentence. He smiled. For a moment, he didn't know how to respond to her words.
The two of them didn't interact much, so he didn't know that she had such a high opinion of him.
After Qi Chengyue finished speaking, she felt a little awkward. She felt that she had said too much.
However, after saying it to him, she didn't feel as bad as before. Her heart still hurt, but at least she could endure it.
Qi Chengyue sniffled, but her nose was completely blocked by snot. She couldn't even inhale. She could only open her mouth to breathe. Even swallowing a mouthful of saliva was uncomfortable. The moment she swallowed, her ears felt like they were blocked.
Suddenly, a neatly folded grayish-white checkered handkerchief appeared in front of her. The fingers holding the handkerchief were slender and clean. The bones were distinct, and the fair skin seemed to add a sense of elegance to it.
Qi Chengyue couldn't help but think back to when he was in university, he must have been the Prince Charming in the hearts of many girls!
She was stunned. Only then did she realize that she was still pressed against his chest, nestled in his embrace. She quickly retreated and awkwardly took the handkerchief from him.
The handkerchief still had his body temperature and the smell of his cologne. Nowadays, very few men would wear such things. Even women wouldn't wear handkerchiefs.
Looking at the clean handkerchief, she felt a little embarrassed to use it.
Just as she was feeling awkward, Cheng Dongge's phone rang. She heard him pick it up and say, "Young Master Cheng."
"…"
"Alright."
After hanging up, Cheng Dongge said to her, "Young Master Cheng asked me to take you back to the old mansion."
Qi Chengyue nodded. Cheng Dongge was about to get up, but he didn't expect that not only would he not get up, but he would also fall flat on his butt.
Qi Chengyue looked at him in shock. She wanted to reach out to grab him, but she was still a step too late. Her hand was raised in the air and she grabbed nothing.
Cheng Dongge smiled awkwardly. "I squatted for too long. My feet are numb."
Even Qi Chengyue couldn't help but reveal a smile. She moved to the side, emptying the seat by the door and said, "Sit here and recover a bit."
Cheng Dongge propped himself up with the help of the car door. He sat beside Qi Chengyue and massaged his numb legs.
The two of them weren't familiar with each other, so it was a little awkward. Qi Chengyue lowered her head and used Cheng Dongge's handkerchief to wipe the tears off her face. Even though she was embarrassed, she had no choice but to suck the snot out of her nose.
"That … I'll go back and wash it. I'll return it to you tomorrow," Qi Chengyue said embarrassedly.
Cheng Dongge grunted and got out of the car before returning to the driver's seat.
…
…
The car stopped in front of the Qi family's old residence. Qi Chengyue got out of the car, and Cheng Dongge followed suit.
Before leaving, Qi Chengyue said, "Thank you for today."
Even with Qi Chengzhi and Song Yu's orders, she still felt very touched and apologetic that he was willing to accompany her for so long.
Cheng Dongge smiled slightly. He watched Qi Chengyue enter the courtyard, then moved to stand at the entrance of the courtyard. He could see Qi Chengyue walk to the door and press the doorbell.
Not long after, the door opened and Guan Liya appeared. When she saw Qi Chengyue, she immediately hugged her.
Only then did Cheng Dongge return to the car and drive away.
"Mom …" Qi Chengyue's lips trembled. Her sore throat was also trembling.
Guan Liya let go of her slightly, but her hand was still on her back. "My child, why didn't you tell the family that you suffered such a great injustice? Come, come in first. "
Guan Liya brought Qi Chengyue into the house. She discovered that everyone was gathered in the living room with solemn expressions.
