Chapter 114: Childhood sweetheart as ex-husband(03)
World Five. Childhood sweetheart as ex-husband(03)
Later, Xi Lang married Xue Ning.
Just because of Xi Qingshan's last words.
"Don't even try, get married so that I can go in peace, and have the face to face Youde." Grandfather Xi said this on his deathbed. "If it really doesn't work, you can divorce again. I can't control it if I can't see."
This was a concession, Xi Lang knew.
So after some persuasion from his parents, he agreed.
Xi Qingshan didn't close his eyes until he saw the wedding photo of Xi Lang and Xue Ning standing side by side and smiling at the camera.
But what he didn't know was that long after he nodded, Xi Lang immediately approached Xue Ning to express his attitude.
"You are amazing, Xue Ning, I underestimated you before."
The mockery in Xi Lang's words was not hidden, which made Xue Ning's face white.
She knew what Xi Lang meant, and knew that no matter how she explained it, Xi Lang would not listen.
Besides, she really wanted to marry Xi Lang.
Even though Xi Lang's attitude towards her was getting worse day by day, Xue Ning never let him go.
"Xi Lang, I"
"I agree."
Xue Ning was startled.
"Who made Grandpa think about our marriage even before he died? If I don't agree to marry you, grandpa will definitely not rest his eyes. I'm afraid I will be drowned by the saliva of all the people in the world."
Xue Ning's face became paler as he said this.
She wanted to speak, but Xi Lang didn't give her the chance.
"But Grandpa also said that if it doesn't work, we will divorce, so you know, our marriage will not last long."
"I came to you in the hope that you would be self-aware and not drag on until then." Xi Lang said and suddenly leaned forward and lifted his eyelids, just like peach blossoms blooming in the garden. "Remember, Uncle Xue is still eating under my dad's hands."
When the man's words fell in her ears, a strong feeling of humiliation surged into Xue Ning's heart.
She wondered how Xi lang could say such a terrible thing. Even if he couldn't bear to like her, her parents were just acquiescing to their daughter's rare willfulness.
For a moment, Xue Ning suddenly felt extremely out of interest.
The Xi Lang that she liked seemed to have been lost in the long river of time unknowingly.
That Xi Lang, who always talked about himself with a stinky face, would forced himself to school with his schoolbag but would teach those bad boys a lesson.
It was as if he was not the same person as the man in front of him.
For the first time, Xue Ning doubted whether her persistence was right or wrong?
Later, they got married, and the wedding was a simple banquet that only invited relatives and friends of both parties. It was less than ten tables.
On the wedding night, Xi Lang didn't come back, and Xue Ning lied on the bed alone, thinking about her childhood.
She didn't understand how she and Xi Lang got to this point, but just as in the dream she had before, little Xue Ning and little Xi Lang stepped into the dead end step by step, with no solution.
Six months later, Xi Lang and Xue Ning divorced.
At first, Xue Ning, who was working in a jewelry company, was asked by the boss to work in another place, while Xi Lang took over the family business. The two never met again except for the New Year and the holidays, but not sure if the distance had diluted the estrangement, Xi Lang's attitude towards Xue Ning had improved a lot since the divorce, and they could still talk a few words with a calm attitude.
And Xue Ning also stopped thinking about Xi Lang after six months of embarrassing marriage and cold violence.
As they came and went, they began to get in touch.
Of course, most of it was because of work, but at least the meeting was no longer tense, like they saw each others enemy.
Until this time they slept together.
It was a cocktail party both of them attended at the same time.
Unexpectedly in the middle of the party, there was a difference between Xi Lang and someone, and after a fierce argument, he left in an awkward manner.
Xue Ning, who witnessed the whole process from a corner, was worried and chased after him until she found the man in the garden with a wound at the corner of his mouth and with an arrogant and untamed look in his eyes.
It had been a long time since Xue Ning had seen such a Xi Lang.
Since taking over the family business, the young and frivolous teenager has long been smoothed out, and has become a mature and stable man who was good at concealing his emotions, a mature man with a sense of propriety.
This was probably the reason why Xue Ning could let go.
Xi Lang was still Xi Lang, but he was no longer the one she was chasing in her memory, like a flamboyant figure in the scorching sun.
This was good.
Xue Ning thought.
How could people not grow up?
It was only when she saw Xi Lang who had taken off his mask and revealed the mottled marks inside, did Xue Ning realize that what she thought she had forgotten was actually still occupying a soft corner of her heart, which could not be erased or replaced.
So when Xi Lang pulled her into his arms, she didn't resist.
Then things happened naturally.
Like a firewood raging inferno, the two succumbed to their desires.
However, what she didn't expect was that this sexual affair between them became the beginning of Xue Ning's life tragedy.
