Volume 3 Comprehensive Film and Television Chapter 117 Zhong Xiaoqin Wants Divorce
Junyuefu Community, Gu Jia’s home.
Today is Zhong Xiaoqin's 30th birthday. Seeing the happy Zhong Xiaoqin, Gu Jia handed her a set of tableware and said with a smile:
"Xiaoqin, this is my birthday present for you, I hope you like it!"
"Thank you, Gu Gu. I like it very much. My family just happened to be missing a set of tableware. This brand is quite expensive. I have never been willing to buy it. I didn't expect to receive a whole set today!"
After Gu Jia gave the gift, Wang Manni handed Zhong Xiaoqin a set of skin care products she had prepared and said with a smile:
"Xiaoqin, this is my birthday present for you. It's very useful. I wish your skin will get better and better in the future, and be as smooth and tender as a 20-year-old girl!"
"Thank you, Manni. I will use them well and make !"
After saying that, Zhong Xiaoqin looked at Yuan Xudong who was not far away and said expectantly:
"Yuan Xudong, what gift do you want to give me?"
Without the appetite to tease Zhong Xiaoqin, Yuan Xudong walked directly to her, handed over his gift and said with a smile:
"Open it and take a look, you will definitely like it!"
After receiving the gift box, Zhong Xiaoqin opened the package directly, and a brand new white dress came into view. She took the white dress and gestured twice on herself, then turned around twice in front of Wang Manni and Gu Jia and said:
“Does it look good?”
"nice!"
“Very cute!”
Hearing that Wang Manni and Gu Jia both said it was beautiful, Zhong Xiaoqin looked at Yuan Xudong and said happily:
"Thank you, Crow Spirit!"
Rolling his eyes, Yuan Xudong pretended to be unhappy and said:
"Zhong Xiaoqin, you call me a crow spirit every day now, be careful or a real crow spirit will bring bad luck to you and make your 30th birthday an unforgettable one!"
"Pooh~~"
Hearing Yuan Xudong cursing her, Zhong Xiaoqin couldn't help but spit, looked at him and rolled her eyes and said:
"Yuan Xudong, you're still so annoying. You kill the conversation as soon as you open your mouth. If anything bad happens to me today, it's all your fault!"
"no problem!"
Yuan Xudong shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, and said helplessly:
"If you ever encounter any bad luck, I will be responsible for you!"
"That's more like it!"
Seeing Yuan Xudong admit defeat, Zhong Xiaoqin snorted twice with pride, then continued to look at the white dress in her hand and said hesitantly:
“Isn’t this dress a little too young?”
"I think it's more important to dress like yourself than to dress like your age. Your usual attire is pretty good, so a cute style is suitable for you!"
After taking a look at Zhong Xiaoqin and her dress, Gu Jia nodded and smiled:
"Mr. Yuan has good taste. You have a baby face, big eyes, and an innocent look. This white dress is perfect for you. It's very cute!"
"Yes, Xiaoqin!"
Wang Manni on the side chimed in:
"This dress is absolutely suitable for you. I provided professional data. It is a perfect match with your figure. I guarantee that it will charm your teacher Chen tonight and make him unable to stop!"
Hearing Wang Manni making fun of her like this, Zhong Xiaoqin was so shy that she couldn't help stamping her feet and said with a red face:
"Manni, Yuan Xudong is still here, what are you talking about?"
"Yes, it's this shy expression. Even a girl like me wants to bully you. Your teacher Chen must be unable to hold back!"
"I won't tell you anymore!"
Seeing Yuan Xudong standing there secretly looking at her, Zhong Xiaoqin couldn't help but glare at him, her face blushing even more as she said:
"I'm going back now, see you tomorrow!"
"Are you going on a date with Teacher Chen?"
"Let's not argue with Teacher Chen tonight. Remember to go to the hot spring hotel together tomorrow night!"
"I know!"
Amid the laughter of Wang Manni and Gu Jia, Zhong Xiaoqin fled with her birthday present. Seeing her hurried steps, Yuan Xudong smiled. He wondered if her fate would be like in movies and TV dramas, where she would get divorced just after her 30th birthday.
Yuan Xudong decided to go to her house tonight. If she is not divorced, it would be fine. But if she is divorced, wouldn’t it be great to take the opportunity to improve her favorability and make tens of millions?
After leaving the Junyuefu community, Zhong Xiaoqin breathed a sigh of relief and patted her red and hot cheeks. After she calmed down, she glanced at the white dress Yuan Xudong gave her, and a hint of joy flashed in her eyes.
Thinking of the dirty words Wang Manni said, she was secretly looking forward to it in her heart. She wondered if Chen Yu would be as obsessed with her as Wang Manni said. She and Chen Yu only had sex once a month. Every time she wanted it, Chen Yu was either sleeping like a dead pig or on a business trip. There was no passion at all. She was not as happy as others without a husband.
Shaking her head to get rid of all the embarrassing thoughts, Zhong Xiaoqin hailed a taxi and rushed back home. She walked into the house and placed the gift on the sofa in the living room. Zhong Xiaoqin ran into the bathroom to wash her body, then put on her newly bought underwear, the white dress given by Yuan Xudong, and the white high heels she had bought with great effort.
Walking to the floor-length mirror and looking at herself in the mirror, Zhong Xiaoqin turned her body and looked back and forth. Just as Wang Manni said, this white dress was very suitable for her figure and temperament. Paired with her short hair, big watery eyes, and an innocent baby face, she looked like she was still a little girl.
Before Zhong Xiaoqin could continue to be intoxicated, a cell phone rang. She picked up the phone from the table and took a look. The caller ID showed Lawyer Li, the lawyer Gu Jia hired for Chen Xu. She quickly pressed the answer button and said with a smile:
"Lawyer Li, what can I do for you?"
"Okay, I got it!"
"I'll be right there, bye!"
After hanging up the phone, Lawyer Li asked her to go to the police station to pay the fine for Chen Xu. Zhong Xiaoqin called Chen Yu, but no one answered. She muttered a few words and found her family's bank card in the bedroom, picked up her bag and prepared to go to the police station. When she opened the door, Pikachu, who was squatting on the sofa, suddenly jumped over and wanted to sneak out for a walk.
Zhong Xiaoqin quickly caught it, drove it back into the house and said with a smile:
"Pikachu, you have to stay home and be a good boy. What if you get lost?"
After saying that, without waiting for Pikachu to sneak out, she quickly closed the door and turned to rush to the police station.
When she arrived at the police station, a middle-aged lawyer greeted her and said with a smile:
"Hello, Ms. Zhong, I called your husband, but he didn't answer, so I have to ask you to make the trip."
"Hello, Lawyer Li, my husband is very busy at work and may not be able to answer the phone. It's the same for me coming here. I wonder how Chen Xu is doing?"
Nodding slightly, Lawyer Li smiled and said:
"The situation is relatively optimistic. Chen Xu is a first-time offender, and all kinds of transfer procedures are easy to investigate. His profit is only about 20,000 yuan. Fortunately, it does not exceed the 50,000 yuan conviction standard. The current punishment is confiscation of counterfeit goods, triple compensation, and administrative detention for 15 days!"
Hearing what Lawyer Li said, Zhong Xiaoqin finally felt relieved. She took out her bank card from her bag and handed it to Lawyer Li.
"I'm ready to pay the fine!"
Without taking the bank card, Lawyer Li smiled and said:
"Come with me, we'll go through all the formalities, and we'll be able to pick Chen Xu up in a few days."
"Okay, thank you for your help!"
"You're welcome, it's my pleasure!"
…
At the same time, Chen Yu was in his boss's office. He heard Zhong Xiaoqin and Lawyer Li call him several times. He was so annoyed that he couldn't help but turn off his phone and continued to explain to his boss:
"Sister Lu, I have no intention of changing jobs. I didn't arrange that dinner!"
"Then what he said was that you were not valued by me and were sidelined at the operation table. I want to know, when did you become so close to him? He knows everything that happens in our project team. Are you his spy?"
"Sister Lu, I've been explaining this to you for quite some time. What do you want me to do to make you believe me?"
"Okay, I can trust you. There must be someone who spy on him in our project team. Since you didn't arrange the dinner, tell me who you invited. I will investigate it myself!"
"Sister Lu, aren't you making things difficult for me? If I bite someone else, how can I still function in the project team?"
"Chen Yu, what do you want me to do? Am I just going to ignore it and watch others plant spies around me?"
…
It was raining heavily inside a specialty restaurant.
After leaving the police station, Zhong Xiaoqin rushed to the restaurant booked by Chen Yu and waited from dusk till late at night. The guests around her changed one after another until the restaurant closed for the day. Chen Yu did not come either, and no one answered his phone calls. Just like usual, he would always disappear on time when she needed him, and then show up when she didn't need him.
Walking in the pouring rain, the soaked Zhong Xiaoqin kept calling Chen Yu until she was bumped by a hurried pedestrian and her phone was broken. The disheveled Zhong Xiaoqin wiped her tears in the rain, hailed a taxi and rushed home.
She walked to her door, took out the key and opened it. The old door didn't move at all, as if mocking her weakness. She couldn't help but kick it twice. The door was fine, but her feet hurt terribly. The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt. She couldn't help but squat in front of the door and cried.
The door opened, Chen Yu leaned out, glanced at the embarrassed Zhong Xiaoqin and said:
"Why are you so wet?"
"You're home?"
Hearing Chen Yu's voice, Zhong Xiaoqin stood up angrily, walked into the house and said angrily:
"I called you so many times, why didn't you answer?"
Chen Yu followed behind her and explained:
"When I called you back, your phone was turned off!"
Throwing her broken phone to Chen Yu, Zhong Xiaoqin loudly questioned:
"How many times have I told you that there is something wrong with our door lock? I often can't open it. Why can't you change it?"
"I know there's something wrong with the door lock, but didn't I tell you? You need to use some skill to open the door. Just lift the door lock up. Why are you yelling at me? I thought I had explained it clearly, so I didn't change the door lock!"
"You think, you think, everything is what you think!"
Hearing Chen Yu say this, Zhong Xiaoqin said angrily :
"Do you take my words to heart? Your mind is full of your fish. You agreed to spend my birthday with me today, but I'm sitting there like an idiot, and you don't answer my calls or reply to my WeChat messages. Are you that busy?"
As Zhong Xiaoqin was talking, she walked towards the shoe rack, preparing to change her high heels. She accidentally saw that the door was open and there was a storm outside. She turned around and looked at Chen Yu and said:
"You left the door open?"
"Is it closed?"
Without time to pay attention to Chen Yu, Zhong Xiaoqin hurriedly looked for her Pikachu. She shouted Pikachu's name while searching frantically. She didn't find it in the house, so she rushed outside. Chen Yu hurriedly chased after her. After an unsuccessful search, the two returned home. Zhong Xiaoqin collapsed and said:
"Today is my birthday. It's my birthday. Why are you doing this to me?"
"What did I do to you? Didn't I just not notice the door?"
"Yes, you don't pay attention to the door, the cat, or me. What else can you pay attention to in this house? I really don't understand why a person like you would get married?"
"Why should I get married? I'll tell you why I want to get married, Zhong Xiaoqin. When we first met on a blind date, I thought you were a gentle and considerate girl. Your family is stable, unlike ours which is a mess. I got married just to have an easy life and no worries. But what happens now?"
"You married me just to have an easy life?"
"Is this wrong? They say marriage is a safe haven. Who doesn't get married to live a stable life?"
"Everyone wants to take shelter, so who's the safe haven? You can be proactive at work, and you didn't feel tired after working in Hoh Xil for two months. You didn't feel tired fighting for your trouble-making brother, but when you come home to me, it's better to be a stagnant pool of water. Why? Since the child died, I can't sleep every day. You sleep like a dead pig and snore. I can only sleep with earplugs. Have you ever cared about me? And your rotten fish tanks are buzzing every day, which is so noisy. I can't stand it!"
"Zhong Xiaoqin, if this matter is as serious as you say, you should go see a doctor. Why are you yelling at me?"
"I don't want to live like this for even one more day. Let's get a divorce!"
"Okay, let's meet at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning. Whoever doesn't go is a grandson!"
After taking a last look at Chen Yu, Zhong Xiaoqin turned around and left the house, walking into the pouring rain and disappearing.
