Announced divorce, madly criticized Ling Shaochang for kneeling down

The wind in Beijing is cold and biting in early winter.

On this winter night, Qiao Ruyi completely disappeared from Ling Che's world.

She cut off all contact, did not inform anyone of her whereabouts, and left the house as if it were normal, but had no intention of coming back.

Ling Che searched for her like crazy all night, searching almost the entire Beijing city. The final news he got was that she left Beijing city, went to Singapore, and then transferred in Singapore. Her destination was unknown.

A blue sports car drove into the military compound and rang the doorbell rapidly, as if demanding his life.

Song Xilan went to open the door in her slippers. The moment she opened the door, she was shocked to see the man standing outside.

The man was tall, dressed in black, with the chill of the night and a strong smell of alcohol.

The pair of frivolous eyes of the past were now bloodshot and the eye sockets were red.

That handsome and perfect face was less aggressive and not as gentle as the last time I saw it.

The whole person was filled with a deadly coldness.

The last time Song Xilan saw him, his posture was as straight as a pine tree, and even when he was squatting beside Ruyi's bed, his back was straight.

But now, even though there was nothing on his shoulders, he seemed to be collapsing as if he were weighed down by a thousand-pound weight.

That rebellious youthfulness has disappeared.

The moment he met his red eyes, Song Xilan's first reaction was to close the door.

Suddenly, a bony hand supported the door frame. Song Xilan was startled and the closed door opened again, but a red mark was still left on his hand.

The man seemed not to feel any pain and stared at her, "Where is Qiao Ruyi?"

His voice was so hoarse that it was unrecognizable.

Song Xilan felt a little sorry when he heard that, so he stepped back a few steps to let him in.

"I don't know where she is."

Song Xilan was telling the truth.

In the afternoon, after she heard Song Yanzhi say that something was wrong, she understood what had happened between Ling Che and Ruyi during this period.

Ruyi never told her that she wanted a divorce.

She naively thought that Ruyi was really going on a business trip, so she gave the cat to her.

She didn't expect that Ruyi wanted to escape.

Escape from this man, escape from this marriage.

Escape from everything and everyone that makes her unhappy.

She also kept calling Qiao Ruyi, but her phone was always turned off.

Ling Che obviously didn't believe her words.

Qiao Ruyi doesn’t have many friends, and Song Xilan is her best friend, so it’s impossible for her not to know where she is.

"Tell me where she is." Ling Che stood at the door without entering, his voice filled with pleading, "I have something to say to her."

"I really don't know where she is." Song Xilan showed her phone. "Look how many times I called her, and she kept saying 'off, off, off, off'!"

"Ling Che, what on earth happened between you two? How could you force Ruyi to this point?"

Song Xilan's eyes also turned red. "Don't you know what kind of personality she has? Why do you bully her?"

"Her mother passed away early. Don't you know how her heartless father and shameless stepmother treated her? She's suffered enough, and you still want to bully her. Are you human?"

"Ruyi had this kind of personality when she was little. On the surface, she looked like a prickly person, ready to prick anyone who made her unhappy. But she was actually very fragile. When her mother died, she locked herself away for a whole month. Now, she's hiding again, and this time even I can't find her."

Song Xilan wiped her tears and looked at Ling Che with eyes full of blame.

Ling Che's eyes dimmed. It turned out that she really didn't know.

Even she didn't know, it seemed that Qiao Ruyi really didn't want him anymore.

Ling Che felt as if someone was clutching his heart tightly. He asked in a hoarse voice, "She was here with you a few days ago. Did she say anything to you?"

"What a few days ago?"

Song Xilan's eyes were red. "The last time I saw her was the day you had the accident. She had a high fever and she's been very busy since that day. I saw you behaved well at that time, so I thought your relationship was good. I didn't expect..."

Speaking of this, Song Xilan choked up again.

She didn't know what Ruyi had experienced during those days, why she decided to divorce, and then secretly hid herself away.

She must have suffered a lot and felt a lot of grievances.

Her eyes were red as she looked at Ling Che angrily, "I'm telling you, don't think I won't hit you just because my dad is protecting you. If anything happens to Ruyi, I will never let you go!"

Ling Che didn't hear a word of what she said next, only catching the last sentence - "The last time I saw her was the day you had the accident..."

Where did she go during those few days when she was not at home?

Looking at the dejected look of the man in front of him, Song Xilan felt that he might have said something a little too much.

Judging from his previous feelings towards Ruyi, it doesn't seem like he doesn't love her.

Since he also loves Ruyi and Ruyi also loves him, why did it turn out like this?

No matter what, she knew Ling Che might not be doing well right now.

She glanced at her phone and saw it was past three in the morning.

He must have been looking for Ruyi, and only came to ask her now that he couldn't find her anymore.

Song Xilan wiped away her tears and said, "You go back first. I will continue to call Ruyi. Tomorrow I will ask my father to help look for her. I will tell you when I have news."

Ling Che's dim eyes fell on the phone in her hand, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Call again."

If she turned on her phone and saw that it was Song Xilan calling, she would definitely answer it.

He was too stubborn. Song Xilan knew that he would not leave unless she called him in front of him.

After flipping through the call records of dozens of calls to the same number, Song Xilan dialed the number.

A few seconds later.

"beep--"

Song Xilan suddenly opened his eyes wide.

The man with dull eyes also had a glimmer of light at this moment.

The air seemed to freeze at this moment, and the surroundings were so quiet that apart from the sound of dialing the phone, the only sounds were each other's breathing.

"Xilan?"

The moment the phone was connected, a woman's calm and gentle voice was heard.

Song Xilan's tears instantly fell. When she looked at Ling Che again, she found that he was staring at the four words "Ruyi Baby" on her phone as if he had lost his mind.

His chest heaved violently, and his heart seemed to be about to jump out of his throat.

Hearing that familiar voice that was etched into his bones, Ling Che felt a heat in his throat and his eyes turned red.

"Ruyi, where are you?" Song Xilan asked hurriedly, "Where have you been?"

Qiao Ruyi smiled softly and said, "I'm on a business trip."

"You're lying!" Song Xilan burst into tears. "I know everything. Ruyi, where have you been?"

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone.

The man at the door was also waiting for her to speak.

As long as she told him where she was, he would go find her immediately.

"Xilan." Qiao Ruyi said softly on the other end of the phone, "I'm fine. I just don't want to stay in Beijing anymore."

"That place," Qiao Ruyi said, her voice choking with sobs, "is rotten to the core, and so are the people."

"If Ling Che comes looking for you, have him sign the divorce agreement. From now on, he and I will go our separate ways, and we owe each other nothing."
