Chapter 77 I don’t want to pay for you anymore
On the night of the Lantern Festival, Kong Nanzhu drove away alone.
Qin Qi wanted to chase after him, but was held down by Qin Hehai. The father and son even had a fight. Shen Jun sat aside crying dejectedly.
Qin Qi couldn't understand Qin Hehai's behavior. If he hadn't taken out the contract, Kong Nanzhu would never have known about the existence of this thing.
"You have to mess up my life before you're satisfied, right?"
Qin Hehai scolded: "When will you grow up? You still haven't realized your mistakes. What do you think of Nanzhu? Do you really love her? Have you ever considered her feelings? "
It was a snowy night and visibility was unclear. Kong Nanzhu drove very fast as if to release her emotions. Fortunately, there were few cars on the road, but she had no destination, so she could only drive alone in the night.
Kong Nanzhu didn't contact anyone. He just found a hotel and booked a presidential suite. He took a bath alone in the bathtub and ordered a bottle of red wine and room service.
She turned off her cell phone, cutting off the only way Qin Qi could contact her.
Standing at the French window, Kong Nanzhu numbly held the red wine glass, looking at the world outside covered by snow, celebrating his regained freedom.
She took this step, determined to break away from the heartbeat of her teenage years and to eliminate this guy who had occupied her heart for many years from her life.
easy.
It's really easy.
Kong Nanzhu blew a puff of white air onto the glass window and scratched it with her finger. When she realized what she was doing, she stared at the name on the window in a daze.
Qin Qi.
Kong Nanzhu wiped away the white mist with his hands and drank the red wine in the quilt in one gulp.
"You are such a loser."
This is how Kong Nanzhu evaluates himself.
The useless Ms. Kong stayed in the hotel for a whole week. She posted a Weibo saying that she was in a bad state recently and needed to retreat to adjust. Apart from that, she had no contact with the outside world.
Even Xu Qingqing couldn't find where she was.
It was easy for Qin Qi to find her whereabouts . The only difficulty was that he needed to go through his father Qin Hehai.
Qin Hehai said that on the premise of ensuring Kong Nanzhu's safety, he respected Kong Nanzhu's desire to be alone.
Qin Qi was on the verge of going berserk. He was supposed to return to the group the next day, but he delayed it until the third day.
Qin Hehai mocked him, "When will you be able to solve problems like a man? If you can't balance your work and life, it only shows that you are not suitable to be an actor."
The next time Qin Qi heard from Kong Nanzhu, he received a divorce agreement sent by Kong Nanzhu, who had already signed in her place.
The beautiful handwriting stung Qin Qi's eyes.
At this moment, he seemed to be able to understand how Kong Nanzhu felt when he saw his signature on the contract.
Qin Qi called Kong Nanzhu, who was also waiting for him to contact her and asked her if she had any suggestions for changes to the contents of the divorce agreement.
"I don't want a divorce. Listen carefully, I don't agree!"
Kong Nanzhu, who was on the other end of the line, held the phone in one hand and the divorce agreement she had asked a professional lawyer to draw up in the other. She said helplessly, "This is the last time. Can't you respect my wishes?"
Qin Qi felt as if his heart was being crushed, and the pain was so severe that he couldn't breathe.
"No divorce, Nannan, no divorce. I can agree to any other request you make. Just give me a chance, and I will work hard to prove my love for you. I can make you live a happy life, and I will support you in whatever you want to do."
Kong Nanzhu's heart had been shocked and destroyed, and had become as hard as a rock.
Qin Qi is like a child who has not grown up yet, stubbornly fighting for what he wants.
She just couldn't see it clearly before.
"It's too late, Xiao Qi. We can go back to where we were before. This marriage is not what you wanted. Now you can do what you want with confidence, and I can pursue the life I want."
Kong Nanzhu added: "Besides, Aunt Shen has already promised me that even if we get divorced, your agreement will still be valid, your career will not be affected, and she will still keep her promise..."
Qin Qi's voice sounded like the whine of a wounded cheetah, shrill and painful, "I didn't do this for this!"
Qin Qi felt deeply powerless.
Kong Nanzhu changed the way she addressed Shen Jun. This sister who grew up with him was determined to draw a line between herself and their family.
Qin Qi felt uneasy. He felt that Kong Nanzhu was withdrawing from his world with a decisive attitude. She was stripping away the connection between them and she had severed their special fate with her own hands.
"I love you, Nanzhu. It's you I want. You've always been the one I've liked. Why don't you believe me?"
"I believe it."
Kong Nanzhu swallowed all of Qin Qi's grief and anger with just one sentence.
"I believe you love me, and I also believe you like me. I love you too, Qin Qi. I love you very much."
Kong Nanzhu paused, pinched his palm hard, and forced himself to be cruel, "But this does not mean that we will be happy together. You love yourself more, and I also want to learn to love myself more. Two selfish people are not suitable to run a family together."
"I don't want to pay for you anymore, I hope you can understand."
There was a busy tone on the other end of the line.
Qin Qi hung up the phone first.
With the cell phone under his ear, Qin Qi covered the aching spot on his chest with one hand and clenched his other hand into a fist to cover his mouth, using his teeth to press hard on the bone of his index finger. He curled up on the sofa and twitched constantly.
With such a tall figure, he curled himself into a ball, looking particularly pitiful.
The girl who sat on the back of the bicycle and carried his schoolbag no longer wanted him.
The girl who gave herself money to pay for his art exam fees no longer wants him.
When Xiao Liu came in to help change the dressing, he saw Qin Qi curled up on the sofa. He called out to him several times, but Qin Qi didn't hear him. He had to go forward and straighten Qin Qi's body, only to find that the usually aloof Teacher Qin was in tears.
Qin Qi murmured unconsciously: "She doesn't want me anymore..."
Xiao Liu was speechless. He saw the divorce agreement on the table and didn't know how to comfort her.
Qin Qi was in very bad condition when he returned to the crew to film these days. He had to do many NGs and retakes. He was also injured because he was distracted during a fight scene with gangsters.
It is a big taboo for actors to be distracted during filming, which may lead to accidents if they are not careful. The director had no choice but to call for a stop, and the entire crew is now in a state of passive resistance.
Qin Qi spent two full days adjusting before he found the director and was told that he could start filming.
He had messed up love himself.
Life must go on.
Kong Nanzhu moved out of Lihua Garden. When Xu Qingqing helped her pack her things, she did not have the same enthusiasm as when Kong Nanzhu first moved in. On the one hand, she comforted Kong Nanhu that there were many good men in the world and that only by saying goodbye to the wrong ones could one meet the right ones. On the other hand, she sighed and felt that life was like a dream.
"When do you plan to go and complete the formalities? There is still a one-month cooling-off period for divorces. If you really want to get a divorce, it's best to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau as soon as possible."
Kong Nanzhu wanted to speed up the process, but the other person refused to cooperate with her.
"What if he still doesn't agree to a divorce?"
Kong Nanzhu lowered his eyes. "He will agree. He is a public figure. We were originally in a secret marriage. There are many ways to force him to sign."
Xu Qingqing widened her eyes and looked at Kong Nanzhu in disbelief.
My best friend has indeed changed.
The previous Kong Nanzhu would never have said such words, nor would he have done anything to hurt Qin Qi.
Kong Nanzhu refused to tell her the real reason for the divorce, so Xu Qingqing didn't ask. Every family has its own problems, and there was no need to dig into the pain that others were unwilling to share.
No matter what, Xu Qingqing stood on Kong Nanzhu's side.
Kong Nanzhu rented an apartment on the East Third Ring Road. She rejected Qin Hehai's investment plan and used her own liquid funds as start-up capital to establish her own studio.
Shen Jun tried to have a good chat with her several times, but Kong Nanzhu refused him every time, saying that she was busy with work.
She couldn't get over Shen Jun's actions for the time being. She had been unwilling to admit in the past that she had invisibly served as a tool for Shen Jun to restrain Qin Qi. But when the words were laid out in black and white in front of her, she had nowhere to escape and could no longer find a reason to defend Shen Jun.
In order to distract himself and stop himself from thinking about sad things, Kong Nanzhu worked with full concentration. In just one month, he led the new team to generate six-figure revenue, and each employee received a bonus .
Song Linyuan provided her with many opportunities for cooperation, and Kong Nanzhu shared profits with him in the form of commission. The two of them would still broadcast live together, and the effect was very good . Fans' name for Song Linyuan changed from "Big Brother Xichuang" to "Mr. Chuang".
More earthy and richer.
Kong Nanzhu is very satisfied with his current life.
Except there were two issues that bothered her.
First, Qin Qi was reluctant to sign the agreement.
Second, when she slept, she always dreamed about the things that happened when she and Qin Qi were in school. In her dreams, she relived her love and infatuation with Qin Qi over and over again. She woke up crying, and she was the only one in the room.
