Chapter 643 Huo Zhenzhen, a lost life
2021, on the evening of June 15, Huo Zhenzhen had a dream.
She dreamed that she was pushing a stroller down the street, next to a half-bald middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man she knew was Manager Huang who had broken up with her for over a year.
But in this dream, she did not break up with Manager Huang, but got married soon after Manager Huang divorced, and gave him a child after more than five months of marriage.
Dream is another life.
That period of life was so real and so long that she forgot that she was dreaming and thought this was the life she really had.
Manager Huang has his own house in Pengcheng. Although the area of the public pool is only 50 square meters, and he has to pay a mortgage of several thousand yuan every month, it is also two bedrooms and one living room, which is enough for a family to live in.
This kind of house is better than the peasant house that Liu Qing rented together before.
Compared with the dormitory, it is much better.
He has a car, a house, a stable income, a Pengcheng hukou, and a child.
Such a life was Huo Zhenzhen's greatest yearning for the future many years ago.
In the dream, Huo Zhenzhen had quit her job after six months of pregnancy and was a housewife with peace of mind.
She doesn't think about going to work until her child goes to kindergarten.
She herself is quite satisfied with this kind of life.
After coming out for a few years, I also know where my upper limit is. No matter how hard I fight, it can only be a few thousand yuan a month's salary.
As a housewife, she manages firewood, rice, oil and salt with a man's money. Although it is trivial, it also reduces the intrigue in the workplace. You don't have to face the leader in a low voice. The wind and rain outside are blocked by that door. .
She prefers this life.
If it weren't for the social security that she had bought for several years, she would have wanted to keep this housewife going.
When I got together with Manager Huang, a married man, I wanted to live a stable life like this.
At that time, she was already disappointed in Liu Qing, no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't figure out where the future of the two of them was.
Although she also admitted that Liu Qing was very kind to her and was willing to give her everything she had.
But she still can't see the future.
The future she hopes for is not the family living in a cramped rental house all the time.
It’s not that you don’t even dare to have children.
Because she broke up with her family, Liu Qing was an orphan, and had a child, but no one came to bring her.
If she quit her job to take care of the children, Liu Qing's monthly salary as a security guard would definitely not be enough to support a family of three.
She didn't want to work hard in the city for the rest of her life, and in the end she could only return to the countryside in a dreadful way, back to the place where she escaped.
does not want her child to have a rural hukou.
She was once ridiculed by her classmates because her home was in the countryside, and she didn't want her children to be humiliated like that.
And following Liu Qing, she could only accept that fate.
She herself has no ability to change such a fate, and her only hope is to marry a man who has the ability to change this fate.
When she was most confused about the future, Manager Huang appeared.
A more correct statement is that Manager Huang has been there all the time, and she has been hinting to her since she joined the company for less than a month.
It's just that she didn't think too deeply about this issue at first, so she didn't take Manager Huang into consideration.
After all, in terms of appearance, and emotionally, Liu Qing is much better than Manager Huang.
But when she was desperate for Liu Qing and confused about life, she found that Manager Huang, who was always there, was a better choice and someone who could save her.
The following things are also logical.
It is impossible to say that she has no guilt towards Liu Qing.
However, it was only the beginning of guilt.
Not only did he have no guilt, he even had some resentment towards Liu Qing, feeling that Liu Qing, an incompetent man, had cheated him of his youth for a few years.
felt that his life was dragged down by Liu Qing.
——Why other people can fight so hard for life, but you can't?
——You can't get a high salary as a security guard, don't you think about delivering food?
——Even if you learn a barbecue skill to do barbecue, there is more than this number in a day, right?
——It's you who are lazy, you just don't think about making progress, it's you who delays my youth!
——You paid me some money, but I slept for you for so long for nothing, and the money you spent can’t even call the cheapest chicken.
With this idea, she squeezed Liu Qing even more.
I wasn't that great before, I was thinking that the two of them would live together in the future.
Later, she was thinking about living with another man. Naturally, she would not be soft-hearted towards this man who had delayed her youth for a few years. She would squeeze as much as she could while she could.
And there is another idea - use such a method to force Liu Qing to break up with herself.
Liu Qing broke up by herself, so she couldn't blame her.
I just didn't expect that no matter how she treated Liu Qing, Liu Qing would not break up.
Even if he didn't have that kind of relationship with Liu Qing, the man still didn't mention breaking up.
——Probably because a person who has nothing, has a little something that makes him feel happy, so he must stick to that little happiness, and he is not willing to let it go.
Even if that happiness is false.
In the end, Huo Zhenzhen couldn't bear it anymore, so she took the initiative to break up.
After Manager Huang successfully divorced, she and Liu Qing had a big quarrel. Say:
"let's break up!"
"Follow you, I am destined to have no future!"
"I told my colleagues about the two of us a few days ago, and my colleagues are persuading me not to be with you anymore."
"All my colleagues are persuading me!"
"Do you know its meaning?"
"Everyone!"
"Everyone knows we shouldn't be together, you're the only one who doesn't!"
"You're so immature, you're not motivated at all, you simply don't have the ability to give me a future!"
"But you are so selfish and cruel, you obviously can't give me a future, but you want to occupy my youth, occupy my life, and drag me to live in this quagmire with you!"
"I'm desperate for you!"
"I was desperate for you a few years ago!"
"I don't have any feelings for you anymore!"
"I've continued to be with you these past few years, not because I still love you, I just pity you, I just think about how good you were to me back then."
"But, now, I've had enough!"
"No matter how good you were to me back then, I have given you back my company for the past few years!"
"Do you know how many men with better conditions than you have I rejected in recent years?"
"I could have gotten rid of your quagmire because of pity for you, because of gratitude to you. I gave up such an opportunity, and I gave up many times."
"But you are still like this, you still haven't changed at all, how do you want me to continue?"
"Am I going to dedicate my life because of my pity for you and my gratitude to you for taking me in?"
"I've had enough!!!"
"Break up, never see each other again!"
"I want to have a normal life!"
"You can't give it!"
These last words are still highlighting his grievances, his kindness, and accusing Liu Qing of his incompetence.
After saying these words, I packed up my things and left, and went to be with Manager Huang.
also blocked Liu Qing’s WeChat and mobile phone numbers.
At the beginning, she was worried that Liu Qing would come to pester her or take revenge on her, so she was a little nervous.
But nothing like that happened later.
Later, she ran into a colleague who used to work in the community. After hearing that they broke up, Liu Qing was depressed, and lived in a daze every day. When someone explained their breakup, she also reflected on herself for not working hard enough and felt guilty for delaying her for several years. of youth.
She was relieved.
is followed by marriage, resignation, and childbirth.
doesn't work there anymore, let alone worrying that Liu Qing will block her way and entangle her.
It has been more than a year since we broke up, and the child is almost one year old.
Pushing a stroller and walking on the busy street with her husband, she felt very happy.
Recalling the past, I am even more grateful for how correct the decision I had made was.
For a woman, sometimes choices are more important than hard work.
glanced at the bald man walking beside him, his brows furrowed imperceptibly, feeling inappropriate, and then a pleasing smile appeared on his face, looking very graceful.
It's not that she can't be gentle, it's just that she doesn't want to waste her gentleness on someone who doesn't deserve it.
This man is good in everything else, except that he looks quite ordinary, and he is bald.
There is still a little worry - I don't know if their son will inherit this in the future.
A thought arises in his heart: "It would be great if he looked like Liu Qing."
After this thought, another thought arises:
"If he had the same temper as Liu Qing, and treated me as good as Liu Qing, how good would it be?"
After the thought came out, he shook his head again, got rid of the thought, and thought:
"Only a man who has no ability will be good to a woman. Anyone with a little ability will not hold a woman unprincipled like a licking dog."
"Excellent men are confident and maintain their dignity."
"A man who is unprincipled to please a woman is not destined to be excellent."
Choose between a good man and a considerate man, she will choose a good man.
Pushing the stroller, he walked slowly on the street with Manager Huang, feeling the prosperity of the city.
Now she has followed Manager Huang to register in Pengcheng, and she is already a citizen of this first-tier city.
The prosperity of this city does not belong to those migrant workers who are destined to leave, but belongs to her.
She felt very happy.
I was immersed in such happiness when I suddenly heard footsteps behind me. I looked back and saw a drunken man approaching with a beer bottle.
Walking outside at night, the most fearful thing is to meet the kind of drunk people.
Huo Zhenzhen was a little scared in her heart, so she moved aside.
The man with the beer bottle didn't even look at her, and walked forward like a corpse.
The moment crossed her body, Huo Zhenzhen couldn't help being curious and glanced at the man again.
All of a sudden, his face turned pale, his mouth widened, and he almost exclaimed.
That drunk man is Liu Qing!
I didn't notice it at first, because Liu Qing has changed a lot over the past year.
became very haggard, and even had some aging.
My hair was also long, covering half of my face. It was messy and looked like it hadn't been washed for half a month.
The moment just saw it, Huo Zhenzhen was even worried that Liu Qing came to seek revenge on her.
It wasn't until the man walked over without looking back that he was relieved.
When I think of the image of him I just saw, there are some incredible things:
"In more than a year, has he changed that much?"
"When did he get into the habit of drinking?"
"Could it be that he hasn't come out of the relationship with me for more than a year?"
"How old are you, and you are still trapped by love, how naive!"
Thinking so, he glanced at Manager Huang next to him.
To make a comparison, the happiness in my heart is stronger:
"I made the right choice at the beginning, otherwise, how terrible would it be to spend a lifetime with such an alcoholic and incompetent man?"
She doesn't love Manager Huang.
She knows this.
The moment she decided to break up with Liu Qing, she told herself that love was just an ethereal thing that would only hinder her pursuit of happiness.
An adult should not believe in love.
She doesn't love Manager Huang, but she loves her current life.
Pushing the stroller and looking at the back of the walking dead with a beer bottle in front of her, she felt even more that the decision to give up love was the right one.
Walking, Liu Qing in front came to a corner.
At this time, a car suddenly galloped into Liu Qing, knocking Liu Qing into the air.
"what!!!"
Huo Zhenzhen's face turned pale and let out a scream.
At that moment, she felt as if something hit her heart heavily, and it hurt.
In that instant, her tears fell uncontrollably.
"what!!!"
In the middle of the night, that scream resounded through the night sky.
Huo Zhenzhen abruptly sat up from the bed.
Then I realized that I was just having a dream.
His heart was still beating wildly, and tears were still flowing freely.
After a while, she calmed down.
It was only at this time that she remembered that her life was not the same as the life in her dream.
The breakup with Liu Qing was a few months earlier than the breakup in the dream, and it was also proposed by Liu Qing.
Because Liu Qing already knew about her and Manager Huang.
Moreover, after breaking up, Liu Qing quickly developed and became the richest person in the world, many levels higher than Manager Huang.
She also did not marry Manager Huang, and finally chose to break up.
And Liu Qing also refused to reconcile with her.
Recall the dream, and then compare the reality.
Huo Zhenzhen found that in reality, she had lost her life.
Lost all the possibilities of happiness in life.
Tears flowed even more violently.
