Qin Yizhao buried his head in the center of Zhu Ruiyan's neck, using his warm breath to ask: "Why aren't you sleeping?"
"It's nothing, rest quickly." Zhu Ruiyan said in a low voice.
"If you don't want to sleep, we can do something else." Qin Yizhao's tone carried a hint of playfulness.
"No, I'm sleepy." Zhu Ruiyan hurriedly said.
Qin Yizhao was amused by Zhu Ruiyan. He did not make any further movements and quickly fell asleep. Qin Yizhao was really too tired to sleep after listening to his even breathing for a long time. It was unknown when he finally fell asleep.
Early in the morning, Qin Yizhao woke up. His slight movements had awoken Zhu Ruiyan. Zhu Ruiyan looked at the time. It was not even seven.
After getting up, Ruiyan went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for Qin Yizhao, who saw his busy figure in the kitchen with a smile in the corner of his eyes. After breakfast, he said gently, "There will be a lot of matters for the county government today. Take care of yourself and remember to ask Director Xue for a leave of absence. "This is a pass. You can go in and out of here freely, so you can take it out for a walk.
After Qin Yizhao finished speaking, he handed over a pass card and key to Zhu Ruiyan, and then said, "However, you have to be careful when going downstairs, as long as no one sees you walking out of my house."
"Got it." Zhu Ruiyan nodded slightly. Only after Qin Yizhao left did Zhu Ruiyan realize that she shouldn't let others see her.
Zhu Ruiyan's heart suddenly felt very dejected. She was a woman that could not bear to see the light of day. Zhu Ruiyan did not go out for the entire morning. Instead, she watched television at home. The city's news had already reported the incident of Qing County Academy's fire last night.
There were many people fighting the fire in front of the brightly lit teaching building. The one in the middle was Qin Yizhao, he stood there with a solemn face and refused to be interviewed by the reporters. Calmness and dignity was written on Qin Yizhao's grave and handsome face, causing the surrounding people to constantly turn their heads to look at him. Once again, Zhu Ruiyan was deeply aware that Qin Yizhao was someone she could only look up to.
Zhu Ruiyan lowered her head silently as she turned off the television. Zhu Ruiyan stood up and packed his things, washing her clothes clean. The clothes and bed sheets on the balcony were put away in a cupboard after being ironed flat.
Zhu Ruiyan turned her head and glanced at the book on Jane Eyre. She knew that all blessings were built on the basis of equality, but there was a heaven and earth difference between her and Qin Yizhao, so there wouldn't be a good result.
She should be like the female lead in the novels and should be a strong and independent female, but she couldn't bear for her to make any more choices, thus Zhu Ruiyan placed the book back to its original position on the bookshelf.
After putting down the book, Zhu Ruiyan revealed a bitter smile. After returning to her bedroom, she picked up her luggage, put on her jacket and left a note: Zhao, since the holidays cannot be granted, I will return to the city first. Zhu Ruiyan.
After Zhu Ruiyan finished handling all of this, she closed the door without a shred of hesitation. That night, when Qin Yizhao finished taking care of everything and returned home, the inside of the house was completely dark.
Qin Yizhao frowned, he turned on the lights in the room and asked loudly: "Yanyan, why are you turning off the lights?"
But only his own echo answered, and the house was strangely quiet. Qin Yizhao muttered in his heart, where did this woman go? He changed his shoes and noticed the note on the cabinet.
After reading the note that Zhu Ruiyan left behind, the anger in Qin Yizhao's heart burst out uncontrollably. He turned down the evening party and thought about going home to eat with her in the evening, but she didn't expect you to be in the same room.
Qin Yizhao angrily took out his phone and dialed Zhu Ruiyan's number, but the number was definitely a voice report, "The phone you have dialed is closed, please try again later."
"Damn." Qin Yizhao cursed angrily and sat on the sofa. His eyes looked like it was frozen over as he stared at the cabinet in front of him.
Zhu Ruiyan returned to the city by car in the afternoon. She didn't know what Qin Yizhao would do when she saw her note, but she changed the lock of her house when she returned home and her phone was switched off. Zhu Ruiyan still went to apply for leave until Wednesday, but she lied to Qin Yizhao.
Zhu Ruiyan laughed self-deprecatingly. Actually, the fact that Qin Yizhao was angry did not have much of a relationship with her, so she did not need to worry about Qin Yizhao's feelings. Her heart felt as if it had been knocked over a seasoning box.
His LL?
This should be a beautiful and knowledgeable girl, liking to read foreign documents and writing a good hand. Although he had never seen her before, she should be a talented and gentle woman. That's the woman that Qin Yizhao loves, not Lin Shixin, but LL.
Even though she was only Qin Yizhao's lover, she knew very well of her own identity. But now it was just a message from the book, a name that made her uneasy. If he had really seen this woman walking shoulder-to-shoulder with Qin Yizhao, what would she be like then? Was she still going to be Qin Yizhao's shameless mistress as if nothing had happened?
Zhu Ruiyan did not want to live such a life, this was not what she wanted. That night, Zhu Ruiyan called Zhou Hui.
The first thing Zhou Hui said when she answered the phone was to be concerned about Zhu Ruiyan's condition: "Yanyan, are your injuries better now? Does it still hurt? "
"Mom, I'm much better." Zhu Ruiyan's nose felt sour, and she was a little agitated, but she tried her best to control her emotions.
"Yanyan, I called Zhang Shuai. I was thinking about arranging your marriage before the new year, right? "
"Mom, that's why I called you today." Zhu Ruiyan bit her lips, and for a moment, shshedid not know where to start, but the situation had dragged on to this point, so even if she was worried that her mother would be hurt, he could not continue hiding it.
"Do you have a plan?"
"Mom, Zhang Shuai, he …" Zhu Ruiyan was a little hesitant on how to respond, "He's not suitable for me."
"Did you have a fight?" Zhou Hui was not too surprised, because she knew that it was normal for men and women to quarrel sometimes.
"Mom, I mean I won't marry him."
Zhou Hui was slightly stunned. "Yanyan, you have already been together for five years, you are no longer young."
"Mom, I don't think I'll be able to see through a person for a long time."
Zhou Hui sighed helplessly, "Yanyan, maybe you will never be able to see through someone. Look at how Zhu Jianjun treated us in the past, but he has to change his mind eventually. Tell mom what happened to Zhang Shuai. "
"Mom, I understand, but Zhang Shuai has a problem with his nature, it's not a problem of change. Such a person cannot be entrusted. "
Zhou Hui suddenly realized something, "Yanyan, you must have your own plans since you said it like that. Have you and Zhang Shuai actually been separated for a while?"
"Hmm, actually, mother, we already parted ways the last time you came to the city." Zhu Ruiyan said a little apologetically: "I was worried that you would be hurt, so I kept it a secret and didn't dare to tell you."
"Ahh, you silly girl, why are you hiding this from me?"
"I'm sorry, I was just afraid you'd worry about me. Sorry, Zhang Shuai was chosen by me, I can bear the consequences of my own suffering, you don't have to worry about me. "
"Forget it Yanyan, your mother only wanted to remind you to think carefully before marriage. You can't choose the wrong person like your mother, because you will regret it for the rest of your life. You don't have to worry too much about your mother's feelings. After all, you're not the one who wants to marry. Happiness is something that you have to control on your own. Mom just wants you to be happy and happy. Don't let other things hurt you. "
"Thank you, Mom." Zhu Ruiyan didn't expect her mother to understand him this well, but how should she explain the matter regarding Xuanxuan? However, she could no longer hide this matter, so she gritted her teeth: "Mother, Xuanxuan …."
"What happened to Xuanxuan?"
"The child in Xuanxuan's womb belongs to Zhang Shuai, she was previously deceived by him."
Ah!" Although Zhou Hui had been through a lot, she still felt that the news was like a bolt from the blue. "Yanyan, you said Xuan Xuan is pregnant with Marshal Zhang's child?
"Mother, because Xuanxuan is too young, she was fooled by Zhang Shuai. If Xuanxuan really likes Zhang Shuai, I can also help her. But Zhang Shuai was truly a scum, he could not give Xuanxuan happiness. I had advised Xuanxuan before, but she was completely deceived and refused to listen to my advice. "
"Xuanxuan is really confused." Zhou Hui felt her mind was in a mess. Yanyan, I will look for Xuanxuan tomorrow. Is it because of Xuanxuan that you and Zhang Shuai … "
"No, I only found out later on about Zhang Shuai's character. He is a person with a questionable personality. I believe that Xuanxuan would also be in great pain together with him. "
"I'll go to school to look for Xuanxuan tomorrow. Didn't you and Zhang Shuai really split up because of Xuanxuan?"
"It really isn't." There was nothing Zhu Ruiyan could do but to tell Zhou Hui about what had happened in the hotel, but in the middle of it, she omitted about what had happened with Qin Yizhao, and only said that the other party was a good person.
"I never thought that Zhang Shuai was actually such a person." Zhou Hui felt that this was unbelievable.
"Mom, there's something wrong with his character, that's why I'm so worried about Xuanxuan."
"Yanyan, I have wronged you." Zhou Hui sighed helplessly.
"Mom, I'm fine now. You have to take good care of yourself." After hanging up the phone with his mother, Zhu Ruiyan felt wronged. Her mother's concern made her feel wronged.
On Wednesday, Zhu Ruiyan saw that the wounds on her face had mostly healed, so she went to work.
Dai Lulu and Li Shuang had not seen Zhu Ruiyan for two days, and both missed her a little. When she saw Zhu Ruiyan, she smiled and went over to greet him: "Rui Yan, you're finally back. I heard you went back home?"
Zhu Ruiyan nodded her head: "Yes, there is something at home."
"Rui Yan, has the matter been resolved?" Ye Zhijie looked at Zhu Ruiyan with concern.
"Yeah, it's fine now." Zhu Ruiyan smiled lightly at Ye Zhijie. But Ye Zhijie's eyes were a little strange. Zhu Ruiyan unknowingly looked at Ye Zhijie. Although she was a little doubtful in her heart, she did not say anything.
