When the abusive male protagonist wakes up
Chapter 69
Hearing Tao An's words, Gu Haoxing's expression froze.
It took him a long time to speak, and his voice became dry, "Why did you mention this all of a sudden?"
Tao An lowered his head to look at the child's immature face, his voice was barely audible, "You said you won't force me to go back, only signing the contract counts."
Tao An was terrified of being cheated by Gu Haoxing before, worried that this time it was Gu Haoxing's excuse to keep him by his side, and that maybe one day he would go back on his word and threaten to force him to go home.
He must leave a way out for himself and his children.
Gu Haoxing's expression became complicated, "I've said it all, you won't go back if you don't want to go back, I won't force you anymore, what are you afraid of?"
Tao An shook his head, with a firm attitude, "It must be signed."
Gu Haoxing was also annoyed, he clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth and said, "What if I don't agree?"
Tao An raised his eyes to look at Gu Haoxing, and said in a weak tone with determination, "Then I will take the child out of here."
"You dare to threaten me?" Gu Haoxing's eyes widened in disbelief, he didn't expect this sentence to come from Tao An who was always bullying.
What Tao An said made Gu Haoxing unable to refute, "You say, if you don't force me, why can't you sign the divorce agreement?"
Gu Haoxing's throat was blocked by this unexpected rhetorical question. His throat was dry and he was speechless for a long time.
Tao An's clear eyes seemed to be able to see through Gu Haoxing's heart, "Unless you are lying to me again."
Gu Haoxing said stiffly, "I always keep what I promise."
He couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If he had known that he had lied to Tao An in the first place and had already obtained a divorce certificate, he insisted on saying that he tore up the divorce agreement and why, instead, he gave Tao An another chance to file for divorce.
But there is no regret medicine in the world, Gu Haoxing looked at Tao An's suspicious eyes, so he could only stabilize him for the time being, "Since you feel that you can rest assured after signing the divorce agreement, then I will ask the lawyer to send a new copy."
Gu Haoxing felt that Tao An was much smarter than before after he escaped. He used to believe what Tao An said, but now it is not easy to be fooled.
Tao An asked: "How long will it take to get it done?"
Only after signing the divorce agreement, can he live here with peace of mind, and he doesn't have to worry about when Gu Haoxing will go back on his word and take their child away.
Gu Haoxing's face darkened, and his tone was somewhat dissatisfied: "It will take time to get the divorce agreement again, about a week."
Tao An thought it was too long, he shook his head, and said softly, "Just use the previous divorce agreement, and don't need to redo it."
Gu Haoxing's heart moved, and he suddenly had an idea, "That divorce agreement is unfair, I'll ask the lawyer to draft a new one, you can raise any demands, and I'll ask the lawyer to add it to the divorce agreement."
Tao An shook his head, "That's fine."
Gu Haoxing said unwillingly, "I'll ask the lawyer to add a house and money to you in the agreement, so you don't have to rent a house all the time, and you don't have to work so hard."
Tao An insisted, "I don't want your money, I just use the previous divorce agreement."
Tao An never thought of coveting Gu Haoxing's money. He has hands and feet, so he can find a job to support himself and his children.
And if Gu Haoxing really wanted to compensate him at that time, he would not have let him leave the house. The sudden compromise now must be because he felt sorry for him.
But Tao An no longer needed his compensation and alms, and he didn't want to be pestered by Gu Haoxing because of this windfall.
Gu Haoxing's expression became uneasy, "You really don't want it? This is the last chance."
Tao An said with certainty: "I really don't want anything."
Tao An didn't open his mouth like a lion, which was a happy thing for Gu Haoxing, but he couldn't be happy at all. He could see that Tao An didn't bother to ask for his money, that's why he signed the divorce agreement at that time. Happy, even if the opportunity is in front of him now, he will not be moved.
But Gu Haoxing used to even think that Tao An would bring the child back to blackmail him, the more he thinks about it now, the more he feels that he is nothing.
Gu Haoxing took a deep breath and said with a straight face, "Then I'll ask the lawyer to send over the divorce agreement as soon as possible."
Tao An secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't talk to Gu Haoxing any more, and walked forward with his head buried.
Before taking two steps forward, Gu Haoxing grabbed his arm again, and he immediately asked, "Are you going home now?"
Before Tao An could speak, he heard Gu Haoxing say: "You haven't eaten yet, there is a newly opened chain restaurant near here, the taste is very good, I will take you to try it."
Tao An withdrew his hand silently, "I won't go."
Gu Haoxing's brows and eyes dimmed a bit, and his Adam's apple rolled a few times unwillingly, "I've already asked Xiao Jiang to fix the position."
Tao An turned his head away, and tightly hugged the child, "Then you and Xiao Jiang can eat, or Tang Li can do it too."
Gu Haoxing's body froze, and before he could react, Tao An had already left with the child in his arms.
Gu Haoxing wanted to leave for a moment.
But when he really took a step, he gave up the idea.
It was because of Tao An that he asked Xiao Jiang to set the position. If Tao An didn't go, could it be that he ate alone in the air?
Gu Haoxing was rejected one after another, his face became gloomy, and he followed Tao An without saying a word.
When passing the vegetable market, Tao An planned to go in to buy some ingredients for dinner, but just as he was about to go in, Gu Haoxing suddenly pulled him from behind.
Gu Haoxing asked, "What are you doing here?"
Tao An gave him a strange look, withdrew his hand forcefully, said something in a low voice to buy vegetables, and walked in.
Gu Haoxing immediately stood at the door and was in trouble.
He has a serious obsession with cleanliness, and the place he usually lives in must be clean, and he has never been able to set foot in such a dirty place.
But seeing Tao An getting farther and farther away from him, Gu Haoxing could only bite the bullet and walk into the vegetable market.
As soon as he walked in, a smelly and fishy smell hit his face, which made him almost vomit out, and it took a lot of effort not to turn around and leave.
Gu Haoxing held his breath, walked to Tao An with a livid face, and saw him carefully picking vegetables in front of a meat stall.
It may be because it has been left for too long, the cut meat on the butcher stall has turned black, and it does not look fresh.
Gu Haoxing frowned tightly, and couldn't help but say, "Do you usually buy vegetables here?"
Tao An didn't seem to want to talk to him, so he hummed lightly.
Gu Haoxing thought to himself, it's no wonder Tao An is so thin, it's no wonder that he is in good health after eating these dirty dishes every day.
Gu Haoxing snatched the piece of meat from Tao An's hand, and threw it back to the meat stand angrily, "The meat here is not fresh anymore, there is a supermarket nearby, go, I will take you there to buy."
It took a lot of effort for Tao An to withdraw his hand. He glared at Gu Haoxing, then walked back to the meat stall and continued picking meat.
Tao An didn't have much savings, so he was lucky to be able to eat meat, so he didn't have the qualifications to be picky.
Gu Haoxing's chest heaved violently because of the choked breath.
He watched Tao An stay up late every day to go to work, live in a small house, and now he was so short even for a meal, and his heart felt distressed and helpless as if a knife had been cut through him. There is no way.
Tao An didn't want to get entangled with Gu Haoxing in the vegetable market, so he quickly picked a piece of fresh-looking meat and handed it to the stall owner, asking him to weigh it and pay for it.
After finally coming out of the vegetable market, Gu Haoxing's shiny soles were covered with dirty water and mud, and his body smelled like fish and shrimp. His brows jumped, and he wished he could take off his clothes on the spot.
Gu Haoxing originally wanted to endure it, and wait until he got back to talk, but after walking a few steps, he really couldn't stand the smell on his body, and he couldn't care less about following Tao An, so he immediately asked Xiao Jiang to drive him to a nearby shopping mall to buy clothes.
Looking at the car going away, Tao An secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He wished that Gu Haoxing would stop following him and go home immediately.
Worried that Gu Haoxing would pester him again when he came back, Tao An rushed home as fast as he could and started packing the house for dinner.
Because it was only for one person, the dinner was ready in less than half an hour, and the aroma that whetted the appetite wafted around the room.
Tao An finished feeding the child and was about to sit down to eat when he heard a knock on the door.
He guessed that Gu Haoxing was coming, so he pretended not to hear, but the people outside the door didn't stop at all, they kept knocking on the door, and the fragile wooden door seemed to fall down at any moment.
Tao An was worried about affecting the rest of the neighbors, so he had to walk over and open the door.
It was indeed Gu Haoxing standing outside the door. He changed into a clean suit and even new leather shoes. His expression looked much better, and he smiled at Tao An.
Tao An lowered his eyes, avoiding Gu Haoxing's sight, "Is there something wrong?"
Gu Haoxing took this opportunity to look into the room, his nostrils moved, and he smelled a fragrance.
Gu Haoxing was very familiar with this taste. He used to eat Tao An's dishes on time every day when he came home from get off work.
It's strange to say that I used to eat greasy dishes every day, but today I saw that I have a big appetite.
Gu Haoxing rolled his throat unconsciously, "Have you prepared dinner yet?"
Tao An didn't want to chat with him, "If there's nothing else, you can go."
Gu Haoxing has a sharp eye and quickly stretches out his hand to block the door, "Wait!"
Tao An raised his head and looked at him with puzzled eyes.
Gu Haoxing looked a little uncomfortable, "I'm hungry."
Tao An followed his burning gaze to look at the dining table behind him, and said in a low voice, "I only made it for one person, you can eat somewhere else."
Gu Haoxing used a little strength in his hand to prevent Tao An from closing the door, probably because he was rejected too much, and he seemed to be gnashing his teeth, "Just one more pair of chopsticks, are you so stingy?"
Tao An pursed his lips, "It's not enough to eat, and you don't lack my meal."
Gu Haoxing's face darkened, and he said as if compromising: "Then I'll just eat rice, okay?"
Tao An was still unwilling, even if he cooked extra meals, he didn't want to sit at the same table with Gu Haoxing to eat.
Tao An still said the same words: "You go, I am not worthy of your grade here."
Hearing this sentence, Gu Haoxing's eyes turned a little red. He felt the fire in his chest burn to the end, burning out his only rationality. He suddenly pressed Tao An against the wall, and kissed him as if venting his anger.
It took him a long time to speak, and his voice became dry, "Why did you mention this all of a sudden?"
Tao An lowered his head to look at the child's immature face, his voice was barely audible, "You said you won't force me to go back, only signing the contract counts."
