After a brief period of weightlessness, the elevator door opened and Cheng Ji'an walked out, only to see You Shan, who had been unable to contact for a long time, standing in front of the door, holding her mobile phone, pacing back and forth, and seemed a little anxious.

"Youshan?" She called softly, a little puzzled.

As if startled, You Shan immediately stood still and turned around, her expression also becoming weird. His lips moved, as if he was about to speak, his brows were slightly frowned, and he looked at her with hesitation and unbearable eyes.

She has always been lively and direct, but she has never seen her like this before. Cheng Ji'an inevitably stepped forward and called out, "Youshan?"

Youshan still didn't speak, just looked at her fixedly, her eyes became more and more unbearable, and turned into sympathy and pity.

Her eyes were so good at talking, Cheng Ji'an saw the clue, and she felt as if she had been knocked out in her heart. The hand holding the bag tightened, and the footsteps stopped.

There was a moment of silence in the air, and finally You Shan stepped forward, took her hand and asked, "An An, did you meet me just now?"

A "also" proves everything.

"Well." Cheng Ji'an lowered his eyes and replied softly.

Originally, she didn't want to affect others because of it, but now it's just impossible.

You Shan had already taken her arm, her voice aggrieved and annoyed, "I found the key from the private room just now, and was about to come down to find you, but when I was in the corridor over there, I saw two people in the corner. Kissing, I wanted to go around, but when I got closer, I realized it was Ji Chongjun, so I was so scared that I quickly hid..."

... Cheng Ji'an raised his head, his eyes shaking. It's unbelievable, some whitewashed fragility is shattering.

But why is it unbelievable? How much distance can there be between traveling in pairs and hugging and kissing intimately?

It's just a matter of seeing and not seeing.

The corner that You Shan pointed to was just where the line of sight touched. It was against the wall, and the lights were dim and blurred, as if there was a sense of ambiguity and ambiguity at any moment.

No need to describe, Cheng Ji'an can already imagine the scene at that time.

"I wanted to call you at the time, tell you, or tell you to go away, I know that you are likely to meet downstairs... But I was a little confused at the time, and I didn't know what to do. Well, let me tell you I'm afraid that if you don't meet them, I'm afraid that you will be kept in the dark if I don't tell you... Later, after hesitating and hesitating, I couldn't make a decision... I didn't dare to go down, and I didn't dare to fight. You call, so I can only wait for them to go down, and I'm in a hurry... An An, am I not enough friends? You won't blame me, will you?"

"No," Cheng Ji'an shook his head, "how could it be..."

Cheng Ji'an smiled, but he also felt how powerless he was laughing.

You Shan took her into the elevator, "But An An, don't be too sad, man, who doesn't have many women around? Just like my uncle and the others, I don't know how many lovers there are outside, not to mention that Ji Chongjun is so excellent. Man, you don't know how many women have liked him from childhood to adulthood... My aunt and the others have already seen it, no matter what the flowers are outside, as long as the status of the hostess in the family is not shaken, you should not worry too much about some things. superior……"

"But then again, that Qiao Weiwei, you really have to be careful, she's really not easy..."

Cheng Ji settled down and looked at Youshan.

"Qiao Weiwei, the one who kissed Ji Chongjun just now, you probably haven't seen it before. She didn't come when you married Ji Chongjun and went to France. But you must know her aunt, Qiao Lina, the one who used to run on you at the party before, She is fighting for Qiao Weiwei. They are all members of the Qiao family. The Qiao family and the Ji family have a good relationship. Qiao Weiwei and Ji Chongjun grew up together. It is said that they used to be together, and the adults also wanted to match. They got married, but I don't know why they didn't write anything later, and then you got married. Grandpa Ji made the decision personally, and Qiao Weiwei didn't sing. When you got married, she went to France and it was said that she couldn't stand it and wanted to avoid it, but Later, it was said that Ji Chongjun also went to France. He used to say that he was talking about business, but now it seems that he should also go to Qiao Weiwei... Qiao Weiwei is very smart, and I don't know how many men he has fascinated..."

The figure of the woman in red appeared in front of Cheng Ji'an's eyes. She was beautiful and charming. Standing beside Ji Chongjun, she was a talented woman and a pair of beautiful people.

It seems that they are the right ones and should stand together.

I don't know when, I have already walked outside, the cool night wind blows the skirt corners, and I don't realize it. The doorman had already driven the car over, and You Shan held onto the door to go in but turned around, not forgetting to instruct, "An An, in short, don't think too much, although Qiao Weiwei and Ji Chongjun once had a relationship, but now you are the righteous one. Mrs. Ji, what's more, you are a hundred times more beautiful than her, you just need to grasp Ji Chongjun's heart. Also, hurry up and have a child, with a child, your status will be even more unshakable! "

"Anyway, I will always support you!" You Shan said, stepping forward and hugging Cheng Ji'an again. She patted her back and cheered her up with a smile.

After a pause, he said regretfully, "I originally wanted to go shopping with you, but who knew that my mother had to urge me to go home, so I can only do it next time. It's the same sentence, don't think too much. Okay, I'll go. Now, I'll contact you later. Bye." Having said that, he got into the car.

He rolled down the window and waved his hand, showing a big smile again, then turned around and stepped on the accelerator.

"Bye." Cheng Ji'an opened his mouth, but didn't shout, his raised hand just waved stiffly.

"Ma'am." Lao Zhou appeared behind him at some point.

Cheng Ji'an looked back and saw that Lao Zhou had already driven over.

She was a little dazed, as if she hadn't called Lao Zhou just now. But it doesn't matter anymore.

Get in the car and plunge yourself into the dark.

"Madam, your face is not very good, is there any discomfort?" Lao Zhou did not drive immediately, but glanced at her through the rearview mirror and asked again for the first time.

Cheng Ji'an recovered and shook his head quickly, "No, I'm fine."

"Are you going home now?"

"Um."

Lao Zhou glanced at her again, finally withdrew his gaze, and drove the car smoothly again.

Everything was calm, but Cheng Ji'an's eyes looking out of the window completely lost focus.

Having a baby...she thought about it too. Getting married and having children, she also thought about following these steps step by step, but it was easier said than done.

She and Ji Chongjun were rarely together, and except for the first time, he prepared a set every time after that.

Cheng Ji'an couldn't investigate the reason. At first, he thought he minded it, but now it seems that he himself is not willing to have a child with her.

There is someone in his heart.

He didn't love her.

And those few times, except for the first time, when drank some wine, once was when went to visit the old man together and couldn't sleep together in separate rooms at night, and there were times when didn't know the reason, but Zuo suddenly had a need.

Every time, it's like completing a business, even if the skin is on a blind date, I can't feel the slightest warmth. She always closed her eyes because she was trembling, but she could always feel that he was looking down at her condescendingly, his eyes silent and cold. All the while, they don't communicate, hug, or even kiss. No mercy. Even when he was drinking, he was equally restrained.

I had never seen it in person, but the scene was so profound, the beautiful corridor with dim lights came to my mind again, he kissed her, or she kissed him, and none of these had ever happened to them.

He doesn't love her.

She didn't know it before, but now she knows everything.

And when he married her back then, it was just a last resort...

The car quickly drove into the gate of Ji's villa, Cheng Ji'an stepped out of the car door, and the whole person tensed up subconsciously. The owner hadn't returned, and the lights were still on. Wu Ma and Axiang heard the sound of the car and had already been at the door.

"Madam is back." Wu Ma saw the person coming back, and hurriedly stepped forward and took the bag in her hand.

"Well." Cheng Ji'an replied softly.

"Madam, do you want to take a bath with water?" Ah Xiang followed the house and asked diligently.

Cheng Ji'an smiled at her, "No need, I can do it myself." Then, he went straight upstairs.

As the stairs spiraled up, Wu Ma and Ah Xiang looked at her back and looked at each other. Tonight's wife is still the same wife, but they always felt that something was different.

Cheng Ji'an returned to his room, but closed the door at once. She put her back against the door and her head on her head, as if her strength had been drained but she was still struggling to maintain it. The doorknob, which was held in the backhand, was not released for a long time.

After a long time, she seemed to have calmed down.

As far as the eye can see, there is silence and darkness.

When the light was turned on, the room was instantly filled with brilliance, but everything became empty and unfamiliar. Sofas, beds, chairs... all the places where she once left traces of life seem to be separated into two worlds from her, which are close to the eyes but cannot be touched.

She doesn't belong here.

The shower was turned on and the water poured down, soaking her face.

She used to be just an ordinary person. She was not born rich and lived an ordinary life. She had dreams, but she never dreamed of a life that was too far away. She just wanted to live every day now. As for Ji, she had only seen it on the news, but she also glanced at it and never cared. She never thought that one day she would get involved with the Ji family, and she never thought that one day she would marry a descendant of the Ji family.

But fate is always so mysterious.

Decades ago, when two young people who were in their prime joined the army, they belonged to different places, but they ended up in the same team and went to the front together. At that time, one was the squad leader, and the other was an obedient soldier who had been following the squad leader. They lived and died together through weal and woe, and forged a profound revolutionary friendship. At that time, they each got married, and their wives were also pregnant. The squad leader joked at one point: If there is a man and a woman, they will marry a baby.

The battlefield is always cruel and dangerous. Two people traveled through the hail of bullets. Although they escaped countless risks, once they were unavoidable. A cannonball fell from the sky, and the squad leader walking in front was about to be shattered.

At this critical moment, Xiao Bing struggled to knock him down and save him at the last minute. In the end, the squad leader survived and was safe, but the soldier was injured half his leg by the shell that fell from the sky.

The wounded need to be evacuated for treatment, but the squad leader has to continue fighting, and then the battlefield will be separated for decades.

During this period, the squad leader searched for the whereabouts of the soldiers several times, but they were all silent. Unstoppable turmoil, messy files, unknown addresses and changes, all became the crux of the squad leader's inability to find the soldiers.

But the squad leader never gave up. When he carried forward the family business and when the Ji Group stood on its side, he was always looking for the whereabouts of the soldiers. And Huangtian pays off. In the end, he found the soldier who sacrificed himself to save him.

A "salutation" and a "squad leader" brought back the time as if decades ago, when the two old and rare old people reunited again with tears in their eyes. When reminiscing about the past, that joke was taken seriously.

The squad leader said, "We had a baby kiss back then. Who knew that you gave birth to a son, and I gave birth to a son, but it doesn't matter. There are grandchildren under the son. I have a grandson who is not married. What about you? ? Hurry up and pull it down, let's be in-laws!"

Xiaobing gave birth to only one son, and the son gave birth to only one daughter. The daughter was twenty-three, and she just happened to be unmarried. The squad leader took a look and immediately made a decision, "It's her!"

As a result, the daughter of an ordinary family suddenly became the grandson-in-law of a top rich family.

But at the beginning, was she willing?

No, she didn't want to.

She could only find out all the news about the Ji family and the person she was going to marry, but the more she checked, the more scared she became. Others only said that she had become a phoenix and soared into the sky, but she knew that she had a relationship with the Ji family. The first gap is too large, and there is an insurmountable gap in the middle.

Even if he has the protection of Mr. Ji now, how long can he be sheltered? His grandfather's time is short, and Mr. Ji is also getting older.

Ji's Group, a listed company, with a net worth of tens of billions, how many people dream of marrying Ji's young boss, but she only knows that if her ability is not enough, all the road will be hard.

What's more, she has a fatal problem.

At that time, she refused. Total refusal.

However, it didn't work at all.

Her mother's obsession forced her to marry into the Ji family, to marry Ji Chongjun, even though she was full of shackles...

Cheng Ji'an buried himself in the white towel, and couldn't help thinking: What if I insisted on being myself?

There is no if.

She became Mrs. Ji, Ji Chongjun's wife, and lived a hopeless life from then on.

She has also worked hard, and she has been working hard, from being a jerky person who doesn't understand everything to a person who can know a little bit now, no one has taught her. In the past two years, she has seen After reading countless books, doing countless observations, and secretly practicing countless times, I only made myself better and more in line with this identity. Now, she has been able to cope with many situations, and even if she still makes mistakes, she will no longer be as red-faced and helpless as before.

But it was useless, useless at all, no matter how hard she tried, she was still out of tune with this world.

She has no friends and no communication. For fear that her actions will damage Ji's image, she does not dare to ask for anything. In the end, she can only abide by herself and stay at home every day.

She was like a canary, like a caged bird.

And her husband never paid her any attention.

She also thought that he could love her a little bit, but from the beginning, she knew it was impossible. It's like he married her because his grandfather forced her to put her in this position. He never treated her harshly, but it was just a trace of pity left by his elders in the past.

She could imagine that he would not take the initiative to divorce her, but she would never exist in his heart.

He has someone else in his heart!

So what's the point of holding on to it?

Cheng Ji'an walked out of the bathroom and looked at the room again, his heart suddenly calmed down.

Yeah, what's the point?

No matter how big the house is and how gorgeous the room is, it is still a cage.

Trapped yourself, trapped others.

She didn't want to continue.

There was a sudden movement of the car outside the window, as if someone was coming. Cheng Ji'an was walking to the floor-to-ceiling window and opened the curtains, but Ji Chongjun came back.

It was already dark, and under the street lights, Ji Chongjun's expression could not be seen clearly.

Cheng Ji'an was inexplicably greedy, she never told anyone that Ji Chongjun's appearance conformed to all her aesthetics. She has never been moved by anyone, and the moment Ji Chongjun put her ring on the wedding ceremony, her heartbeat couldn't be held back.

But why did he come back? With so many people tonight, it should be lively enough.

Is something wrong?

Or because his wife saw him with other women and he wanted to come back to show his innocence?

What an impossibility.

Put down the curtains and go back to the bed, the time is half past nine in the night.

It was quiet outside at night.

Cheng Ji'an picked up the phone, swiped the keyboard, and entered the address book.

There were only thirty or so people in the address book, most of whom had known each other after marrying into the Ji family, servants, drivers, secretaries, lawyers, relatives and friends, and most of them didn't get in touch often.

There is a person whose number has never been contacted since it was deposited.

Cheng Ji'an looked at that person's name, his eyes flickered, and after a long time, he finally pressed it down.

I didn't dare to make a phone call, let alone go to him directly. could only send a text message, and finally accumulated courage.

"Ji Chongjun:

- Let's get a divorce. "

Close, take a deep breath. She wanted what he could see, and she just had to wait for his reply.

The time has not been fixed. Maybe ten seconds or a minute later, there is movement from the mobile phone.

"Okay."

One word, no more words.

Cheng Ji'an watched it for a while, then smiled silently.

Maybe he has been waiting for a long time.

The breath that was in her chest finally came out. She sat on the bed, her eyes no longer hesitant, maybe the days after tomorrow will be more difficult, but there is no need to be afraid.

Outside the door, Ji Chongjun looked at the words on the phone, his lips pursed slightly.

After a while, he pressed the phone, raised his head, and turned to leave.

His eyes were deep, and he could not distinguish between joy and sorrow.

He had a box in his hand, and no one knew what it was.

Half an hour later, there was the sound of a car starting downstairs. Cheng Ji'an lay on the bed and listened until it got further and further away...
