Chu Qing Yan did not like Kang Wen Yuan from beginning to end. Holding in her anger, she hurriedly left the kindergarten and rode her bicycle.
Chu Qing Yan suddenly remembered that when she left in a hurry just now, the child's breakfast milk was still in her bag, so she hurriedly rushed back.
That kind of smile, that was gentle to the point of being bone-deep, appeared on the corner of Kang Wen Yuan's mouth.
She walked straight into the classroom and passed the breakfast milk to Xiao Yu. When she turned around and met Kang Wen Yuan's deep eyes, she felt a faint pain flash past his eyes.
Chu Qing Yan walked out of the classroom, and leaned over: "Why didn't you leave?"
Chu Qing Yan raised her head and looked at him indifferently: "What about you, why haven't you left yet?"
Remembering the past, those depressing nights, she thought of him countless times, thought of his illness, thought of those days when she had suffered so much for her child. Piercing pain came one after another.
Fortunately, she was free, so she could have Xiao Yu, and thus have her present happiness.
The smile on Kang Wen Yuan's face became somewhat uncomfortable and his gaze became erratic. His right hand subconsciously rubbed his nose and then softly said: "Children are very cute!"
"Hmm, of course it's cute!" There was no doubt about this.
The child was very adorable, which was why he was reluctant to leave. He stayed behind and looked around.
No matter how adorable a child was, they were not his children after all. No matter how long one looked at them, it would only add to one's grief.
Having experienced the despair of losing a child together, she could understand his feelings. She could even understand the desire in his eyes.
The past was unbearable to look back on. She didn't want to think about it anymore.
Walking out of the kindergarten, and not seeing Kang Wen Yuan's car, Chu Qing Yan asked casually: "Aren't you going to work?"
"There's a meeting at ten!" Kang Wen Yuan looked at the time: "It's still early!"
She said, "Oh," and was silent.
"I live at 'Thames Dawn'. When I have time, I will bring Xiao Yu to my place to play."
"Alright!" However, she did not expect him to continue, "Let's do it this week. At nine in the morning, I'll go pick you guys up."
"Huh?" Chu Qing Yan was immediately dumbstruck, did he for real!
"You have business on Saturday?"
It was all right, but it's all right now.
"Yeah, I made an appointment with Ye Xiao Xiao to go climb the mountain."
Chu Qing Yan regretted it so much that she wanted to bite off her tongue to say why she was going to climb mountains. She wanted to say how good it was to go shopping, but men would definitely not be interested in going shopping.
The corner of her mouth twitched as she asked in a low voice, "Are you not busy during the weekend?"
"I'm not busy these days." Kang Wen Yuan saw Chu Qing Yan's resistance and his eyes instantly dimmed. "You guys go climb the mountain, I'm not going."
She secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Luckily Kang Wen Yuan was smart enough to keep her from jumping off the tiger's back.
A refreshing breeze blew past, and Kang Wen Yuan asked: "Did you spray some fragrant water?"
"Well, Elizabeth Arden Fifth Avenue." Her favorite taste.
"You never used to spray perfume before."
Kang Wen Yuan's slightly disappointed voice ignited an indescribable rage in Chu Qing Yan's heart.
She fiercely stared at him, and scolded: "It used to be before, now it is now, don't always talk about how I was in the past, I was blind in the past that I married you, I was brain-dead in the past that I gave birth to your child, the former Chu Qing Yan is long dead!"
He accidentally shouted out the words in his heart.
Chu Qing Yan was shocked by her own anger. Even after three years had passed, she still had not relieved herself.
Kang Wen Yuan stared fixedly at her, a light flickering in his eyes. There were thousands of words in his throat, but in the end, he did not say a single word.
Exhaling and exhaling, Chu Qing Yan forced herself to calm down. What was the point of mentioning back then?
Her body couldn't help but tremble. Her hand that was clenched into a fist didn't have any strength. It was soft and weak.
The pain was like a needle piercing his heart.
She turned her face away, not allowing Kang Wen Yuan to see the tears in her eyes.
After a long while, he opened his mouth and said, "I'm sorry!"
Sorry?
Chu Qing Yan could not help but sneer. Was there any use in saying that she was sorry?
There was no point in saying 'I'm sorry' in any way.
It could not alleviate her hatred towards him, nor could it erase the scar at the bottom of her heart.
She wiped away the tears that had flowed down her face for the first time since her divorce from Kang Wen Yuan in these past three years.
Kang Wen Yuan passed a tissue to Chu Qing Yan, but he knocked it away and it fell to the ground.
She hated herself the most now, why couldn't she control her tears and wanted them to flow in front of Kang Wen Yuan.
Couldn't he show it when he got home?
Chu Qing Yan rushed out with her head lowered, pushing her bicycle, heading home.
Kang Wen Yuan walked beside her and extended his hand out. "I'll help you push them."
"No need!" She had long since broken off all relations with him. No matter what, she would not rely on him.
"Qing Yan …"
"Go away, I don't want to see you again. Go, the further you go, the better. Don't appear in front of me again in the future!"
Kang Wen Yuan looked at her injured, then turned around and walked further and further away.
After returning to the company, Chu Qing Yan laid on the makeup table weakly, thinking back to the look in Kang Wen Yuan's eyes when she looked at him, and her heart was in a mess.
"Qing Yan, did you meet Kang Wen Yuan again today?" Ye Xiao Xiao went closer and asked curiously.
"How do you know?"
"I can tell from your expression." Ye Xiao Xiao gave Chu Qing Yan a confident look, before confidently saying: "Every time you see him, it's like this, your mind is preoccupied, and you're extremely upset."
"I scolded him today!" Now that he thought about it, he still felt a little regretful. Why did he say those words? Why did he bother himself with it.
Ye Xiao Xiao asked excitedly: "Quickly tell me, how did you scold me?"
"I say, in the past, I was blind enough to marry him, and brain-dead enough to have children for you. The previous Chu Qing Yan died a long time ago!" One could imagine how deep her resentment was. Even after three years, she still refused to spit it out.
Ye Xiao Xiao curled her lips in disdain, "What kind of scolding are you using? If it were me, I would definitely pay my respects to all the ancestors of his eight lifetimes!"
"Forget it, just boast!" Not wanting to continue with this topic, Chu Qing Yan took out the new design she had chosen yesterday and handed it over to Ye Xiao Xiao: "Is this wedding dress pretty?"
Ye Xiao Xiao's eyes lit up when she saw it: Wow, that's pretty good, which company are you from, how much is the bid?
"The new model for Weiwei's bride this season is priced at 8500." Chu Qing Yan felt that it was too expensive. She would be able to buy a copy when she was online for a while, and the price of the copy was not even a tenth of the original price.
Ye Xiao Xiao did not care about the price.
"It's so expensive, it's such a pity to rent it!"
"Did I say I was booked back to rent it?"
"What's that for? A release?"
"Of course it's for Sasha!" Ye Xiao Xiao's face was stern, she poked her on the forehead: "I already said that you have been messed up by Kang Wen Yuan, right? You can even forget about Sha Sha's wedding?"
"I didn't forget. Didn't you say before that you would give her a diamond necklace? Why did you change it into a wedding dress now?"
"Nothing, I'll give her the diamond necklace, you give her the wedding dress."
"Alright, I've still been worrying about what I should send you!"
"There's no need to worry now!"
"There's no need to worry!"
After paying the money for the wedding dress, going to the bank to make a mortgage and save all the money, Chu Qing Yan only had 1850 yuan of salary left.
Although the company was opened by her and Ye Xiao Xiao, they usually received their wages, and would receive their dividends at the end of the year.
Chu Qing Yan saved up the company's dividends and the salary that she had not spent previously. She would not take it out to spend unless it was absolutely necessary, so the amount of money that she could use every month was very limited.
She was the same as many others, she always felt more assured after saving some money. Although she had earned quite a bit of money in the past few years, she still did not dare to spend as much as Ye Xiao Xiao did.
Chu Qing Yan always thought that if there came a day when she was suddenly gone, what should she do when Xiao Yu was not yet grown up. Other than that, she could not do anything but leave him with as much money as she could, so that he would be able to continue reading without worry.
As Xiao Yu grew up, the number of times he asked Chu Qing Yan for his father also increased.
Not long after he started kindergarten, Xiao Yu asked for the first time, "Mom, why don't the other children have fathers?"
Chu Qing Yan didn't want to fabricate a beautiful lie to deceive him, so she told him the cruel truth. "Because Daddy doesn't want us anymore."
At that time, Xiao Yu cried. As he cried, he said that he was very obedient and knew why his father didn't want him.
Chu Qing Yan had always wanted to ask Li Jing Yu this question.
Were all the promises made back then fake?
In fact, the truth was already in front of Chu Qing Yan. Li Jing Yu was only playing with her, and she deserved to be toyed with by him.
The more he thought about it, the more he was in a bad mood.
Chu Qing Yan walked to the side of the Yangtze River and sat on the stone steps. She looked at the surging Yangtze River and slowly calmed down.
"Wualalalala, wualalalalalala, wualalalalalalala …" The phone in her bag rang. It was a bath song that Xiao Yu had forced her to change to last night, it was very relaxed and cheerful. Hearing it, Chu Qing Yan could not help but smile.
"Jia Jia, what's the matter?"
"Sister Chu, there's a man looking for you at the company."
"Oh, then tell him to wait for a moment, I'll be right back!" Standing up, she dusted off her jeans and hurried back to the office.
Although they said it was a company, it wasn't that big. There was only a very small store in the center of the city, and there was also a suite of three rooms and two rooms upstairs that housed all of the company's assets.
Other than advertising for business, the company's store was also selling flowers. Chu Qing Yan and Ye Xiao Xiao had been running around for a long time, so they invited a little girl to take a look at the store.
"Jia Jia, where is the person looking for me?" Chu Qing Yan walked into the store and saw that Jia Jia was arranging the flowers by herself.
