How many loves can be relived in the story of a devoted CEO pursuing his wife?
Chapter 584 This is halfway up the mountain, the road is not easy to walk...
"Snap!" A crisp sound rang out as someone turned on the light in the study.
A blinding light suddenly shone, and Lin Lan instinctively raised her hand to shield her eyes.
Liu Sisi quickly wiped away the tears that had been streaming down her face. "I'm giving you one day. If Lin Lan doesn't turn herself in by 6 PM tomorrow, I'll call the police!"
As she said this, Zeng Meiyu could clearly feel her muscles tense up, as if only in this way could she force herself to stop feeling any attachment to this place.
Lin Xuedong turned around, his regretful gaze fixed on the stubborn little woman.
The room's lights illuminated her resolute determination to fight to the bitter end and rise from the ashes.
Her eyes gleamed with a chilling light as she glanced disdainfully at Lin Lan, who lay sprawled on the ground like a heavy sandbag, before turning to Lin Xuedong: "As for you, Lin Xuedong, if you don't see the divorce papers by six o'clock tomorrow, see you in court!"
Immediately afterwards, she turned around abruptly and resolutely walked towards the door with Zeng Meiyu.
Without even glancing at the 'brother and sister' pair, he walked out of the study without looking back.
Lin Xuedong's fingers were curled up, and his knuckles were white.
In a daze, he was amused by the slender yet resolute departing figure, his heart filled with helplessness and mockery.
However, he simply pursed his thin lips and stared intently at each step she took, as if the past year or so they had spent together was passing by in the blink of an eye.
Stepping out of the study, Liu Sisi seemed to have suddenly lost all her strength, her eyes instantly turning red.
She hugged Zeng Meiyu tightly, her body trembling slightly, her back slumping as she released her pent-up emotions.
Zeng Meiyu closed her eyes, sighed softly, and gently stroked her trembling shoulders, letting her cry loudly in her arms. "It's okay, Sisi, we'll live a good life together from now on!"
The gentle words of comfort echoed in the empty corridor, but they could not dispel the sorrow in Liu Sisi's heart.
Fortunately, things did not develop as Lin Lan had predicted, that "if she is not having a good time, then no one will be having a good time either."
The wedding was quietly cancelled because Liu Sisi claimed to have health reasons.
After all, Lin Xuedong had previously been very public about spoiling his wife, so the outside world generally speculated that the project might have been temporarily shelved because the female lead was pregnant and inconvenient.
All the sweetness and anticipation of the past were shattered with the newly acquired divorce certificate, leaving behind a mess of broken pieces in her complicated relationship with Lin Xuedong.
Liu Sisi rubbed her slightly swollen eyes, opened the drawer and put the divorce certificate away, then her phone rang on the desk.
She took a breath and answered the call again.
Happy birthday, Sisi!
After a few days apart, the man was sitting at his desk again, his face no longer showing his usual roguishness, but instead calm and restrained.
But in Liu Sisi's eyes, he was still so handsome and charming, and her heart softened uncontrollably. "Thank you."
“I had Gao Bing make a reservation at a restaurant tonight, let’s go celebrate.” Lin Xuedong’s voice on the other end of the phone carried a hint of anticipation.
"..." Liu Sisi fell silent, feeling as if a million ants were crawling inside her.
The familiar silhouette of the man before her and his deep voice stirred up ripples in her heart once again.
“Tonight, Xiaobai and Atao will be coming over for dinner…” Liu Sisi blinked, “And Zhichen, Zhenzhen, and… Brother Li.”
The office was so quiet that only shallow breathing could be heard. Lin Xuedong leaned back in his chair, his grip on his phone tightening slightly, but he smiled nonchalantly. "It's great, it's lively. Then let Aunt Fang cook an extra meal for me. I'll go over after get off work."
Upon hearing this, Liu Sisi held her breath, subconsciously focusing on Lin Xuedong's deep, dark eyes.
She stared intently for two seconds, seemingly unable to discern anything unusual, but her heart was still pounding uncontrollably.
“I miss the kids too, and I'll play with them a bit.” His smile widened, revealing two shallow dimples that caught Liu Sisi’s eye.
Since he left with Lin Lan that day, the two children have remained at Blue Sky Peak for the time being. Apart from the divorce certificate they just received and the statement announcing the postponement of the wedding, everything else is yet to be dealt with.
She knew that Lin Xuedong needed time, so she didn't press him any further.
This leniency could be considered the last bit of dignity she gave this man.
She also began to focus on her career, as only work could help her regain her confidence and sense of value.
The pain of the past has become nourishment for her growth. The road ahead is long, and she must be prepared to bravely embrace a new life.
So, Liu Sisi gritted her teeth and nodded at the man in the camera: "Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Liu Sisi spun around in her chair, looked out the window at the azure sky, and let her mind wander.
Unexpectedly, Li Songze was the first to ring the doorbell.
He stood at the door, wearing a black, handmade custom-made suit and a white shirt with the top two buttons undone, simple yet stylish, which made his refined and noble temperament appear even more desolate and lonely.
But the smile on his face was... indescribable.
His gaze met Liu Sisi's, and both of them were slightly taken aback. Li Songze seemed not to have expected that it would be Liu Sisi who opened the door herself.
A sense of unease and subtle tension filled the air.
"Brother Li, why are you here so early?" Liu Sisi broke the silence first, smiling as she stepped aside to let Li Songze into the house: "Come in quickly, everyone hasn't arrived yet."
Li Songze lowered his eyes slightly, his gaze sweeping over Liu Sisi out of the corner of his eye. The woman was dressed simply and casually, her long hair casually tied back, with a few wisps of hair playfully falling on either side of her face, making her look even more gentle and charming, exuding an approachable aura like a kind neighborly wife.
He coughed lightly twice: "This is halfway up the mountain, the road is not easy to walk..."
puff~
Liu Sisi suppressed a laugh, but didn't call him out on it. "That's right, Brother Li, you've worked hard."
In the living room, Zeng Meiyu and the nanny each had one child in their arms, toys were scattered all over the floor, and the toddlers were making a lot of noise as they learned to talk.
Upon seeing Li Songze enter the room, Zeng Meiyu stood up and greeted him with a smile: "Mr. Li, you've arrived? It's been a long time."
"Auntie, hello." Li Songze took a few steps closer, his gaze involuntarily drawn to two children playing. "This is...?"
“Oh, they are all Sisi’s children,” Zeng Meiyu turned to look at the children, her lips curving slightly, but her smile concealed a complex emotion that was hard to describe.
His gaze shifted between Zhiyuan and Zhihe, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
On the one hand, she was gratified that the two children brought her daughter countless joys; on the other hand, the children's existence constantly reminded them that their complicated past would forever remain a hidden wound in their daughter's heart that would never heal.
Zeng Meiyu took a deep breath and continued, "The one on the left who is playing the piano quietly is Zhiyuan, he is the younger brother; while the one on the right who is playing with a toy car is Zhihe, he is the older brother."
Li Songze blinked, a look of confusion on his face, but he didn't ask any further questions. "I'm sorry, I didn't prepare a gift for the child this time."
He turned his head and glanced at Liu Sisi, a hint of tenderness in his eyes that was hard for others to detect. "Sisi, happy birthday."
The warmth from her palm sent a shiver down Liu Sisi's spine. She lowered her eyes, glanced at the delicate little gift box in her hand, and when she looked up again, she saw Li Songze's gentle smile, much more pleasing to the eye than when he had just entered. "Thank you, Brother Li."
Just then, the doorbell rang again.
Liu Sisi's gaze unconsciously drifted out the window. The setting sun had not yet faded, and the warm orange afterglow spilled into the room, coating everything with a gentle halo.
She glanced at Li Songze, a hint of unease creeping into her heart. She forced a smile and joked, "Hey, what's going on today? Everyone's here so early!"
