is house was left to her by her mother. No matter how difficult things were before, she never moved out.Shen Qing was stunned.She didn't persuade him anymore, but she still disapproved in her heart.Jo...Joe's appearance was dreadful.
Lu Ze was still impeccably dressed, only his dark trousers bore a slight sheen of dampness.
Reveals a hint of voluptuousness and wantonness.
Qiao Xuan's hands trembled uncontrollably, and several times she almost dropped the tiny, delicate button.
Lu Ze stood aside, looking down with disdain, showing no intention of helping.
He habitually smoothed his cuff, but failed to find it, and couldn't help but frown.
He still hadn't found the cufflinks, but there was no way he could ask about them now.
After a long time, Qiao Xun finally tidied up.
She looked up at Lu Ze, and Lu Ze was also looking at her. His eyes were so deep that one couldn't understand them, but Qiao Xun didn't want to figure it out. Her voice was tinged with weariness: "Lu Ze, I'm really tired! Let's just break up amicably."
After she finished speaking, she opened the door and walked out.
This time, Lu Ze didn't stop her again.
He just stood there, watching Qiao Xun's departing figure, for a long time. He lowered his eyes and smiled thinly—
Most divorced couples end up with a bitter fallout.
There's no such thing as a perfect parting!
When Qiao Xun left the Lu Corporation building, his legs were still trembling.
The skin that had been touched by Lu Ze was still burning hot, as if the sensation of his palm was still there...... In her mind, Lu Ze's words kept echoing.
Come home with me, you're still Mrs. Lu!
Do you think the Lu family's doorstep is a place where anyone can come and go as they please, or do you think I, Lu Ze, have a good temper that allows people to treat me however they want
......
Those words left Qiao Xun gasping for air.
She lingered outside for a long time before returning to her rented house.
A 60-square-meter old apartment building, with only the most rudimentary furniture. Compared to Qiao's former villa, it was simply worlds apart. That day, Auntie Shen stood in silence in the narrow hall for a long time.
Joe knew she wasn't used to it, but at the moment, this was all she was capable of.
In the kitchen, Auntie Shen is simmering soup again.
Seeing Qiao Xun return, she put down her work: "How is your brother"
Qiao Xun didn't mention Lu Ze. She lowered her head to change her shoes at the door and said softly, "My brother asked me to find a lawyer named Meng Yan who can help us sue."
"Meng Yan hui"
Aunt Shen pondered for a moment, "I seem to have heard this name before! Anyway, no matter what, try to find this person. If he really has the ability, your brother might be able to come out too."
Joe hummed in response: "I just called Lin Xiao and asked her to help me find out."
She has known Lin Xiao since childhood.
After graduating from Lin Xiao University, he became a model and traveled all over the world. He has a wide network of contacts.
Upon hearing the name Lin Xiao, Shen Yi's expression became complex.
Once upon a time, she disliked Qiao Xun and Lin Xiao's interaction, thinking that Lin Xiao was someone from the entertainment industry with complicated backgrounds...Unexpectedly, there are times when she needs to rely on people now.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Aunt Shen fell silent for a moment.
She filled Joe a bowl of soup: "Drink this to nourish yourself. You've lost weight these days. Aren't you starting at the training institution next week"
Qiao Xun lowered her head and looked at the soup, softly saying, "I'm not going! I'll find another job."
Shen Qing sat down beside him. "What's the matter"
Qiao Xun didn't want her to worry, so he pretended to be relaxed: "It's Lu Ze! He said hello to someone......They turned me down over there! It's okay, Auntie Shen, I can find another job. There are so many job postings in the newspaper, I'm sure I can find one."
She thought Shen Qing would blame her.
But Shen Qing stayed silent for a long time, only saying: "Your brother just needs to come out."
She got up and went to the kitchen.
But after a while, Shen Qing's voice came from the kitchen, laced with suppression: "Qiao Xun, you think I'm so ruthless, forcing you to live with Lu Ze's face What kind of personality he is, how could I and your father not know But what can we do! What if your brother doesn't come out, what will you do then"
Shen Qing, as she spoke, burst into tears.
Qiao Xun's heart ached too, but she still forced down her emotions and came to Shen Qing's back, leaning gently against her shoulder: "Aunt Shen, I've grown up! Even without my brother, I can take care of this family."
Shen Qing cried out loud....
Joe searched for several days but couldn't find a suitable job.
She knew in her heart that any high-end institution should have been informed, and it was impossible for them to ask her.
So, she lowered her expectations and went to a performance company. It wasn't really a proper company; it was just about performing at anniversary celebrations for businesses opening. They paid performers based on the number of times they performed.
Joe is handsome and plays the violin well.
The head honcho gave her 300 yuan per performance, and with so many gigs, Qiao Xun had to run three or four shows a day. She pulled shifts for at least six hours every day, her long fingers calloused and blistered.
Life was hard, with constant travel and running around, but Qiao Xun never regretted it.
She had never called Lu Ze, and Lu Ze had never... Occasionally, she would see his news, attending banquets, acquiring companies.
In every situation, Lu Ze was elegant and noble.
In these situations, Qiao Xun would occasionally accompany him in the past, watching his spirited and energetic demeanor, her heart secretly fluttering.
But now looking back at these things, Qiao Xun only feels distant and unfamiliar.
......
Evening, hospital rooftop.
Qiao sat quietly, with a can of ice-cold Coke beside her that she had just bought from the small shop. In the past, she wouldn't drink this kind of soda because it wasn't healthy, but now she occasionally allows herself a little.
He Jiatian arrived at this time, standing tall and imposing in a white doctor's coat.
He stood beside Qiao Xun, silently accompanying her as she watched the sunset.
The last glimmer of gold faded away.
Qiao shook her head, saw He Jidtang, she hurriedly stood up slightly awkwardly: "Doctor He."
He looked at her with his gaze, filled with distant memories, very gently.
Joe was uneasy.
At this time, He Jiatang's gaze fell to the distance, and he spoke softly: "Xiaoxun, when you were young, you used to call me Brother Jidtang... In the summer nights, you liked sleeping in your little tent. My mom always brought you ice powder. These years, she has missed you a lot."
Joe pondered for a long time, finally remembering......
She mumbled, "Jìtǎng gege."
These four words, when she uttered them, carried a hint of bitterness. Because with "Brother Ji Tang's" age, Qiao Xun was carefree and still the pampered little princess of the Qiao family.
Goodbye, but it's a world of different people.
He tilted his head and watched her silently.
Then he pulled out a bank card from his pocket: "There are 2 million in this, the password is your birthday. It should be enough for your uncle's medical expenses."
Joe refused to accept the offer: "I can make my own money, really."
Ji Tang looked at her hand, which had several medical adhesive bandages on it. It wasn't as youthful and tender as before.
He cleared his throat. "Xiao Xun, you don't have to work so hard."
He took the ointment and treated her wound.
"Once, I lived under the protection of others without a self. Yes, I am now nothing, but I am only 24 years old. I want to start over on my own."
After she finished speaking, she looked up at He Jitai.
He was as always, his gaze gentle yet with a hint of depth.
......
Qiao Xun only stayed at the hospital for two hours. At seven o'clock in the evening, she rushed to a bar opening.
When it ended, it was almost dawn.
Qiao Xun walked down the deserted street with her violin on her back. A gust of cold wind blew past, and she hugged herself to keep from shivering.
Late at night, the neon lights were dim.
The skyscraper's massive screen blared gossip news, sustaining the vibrancy of the night.
Business magnate Lu Ze from City B flew to City H specially to spend a romantic Mid-Autumn Festival with his beloved.
In the frame, Qin Secretary pushed Bai Xiaoxiao, being blocked by reporters in the elevator.
On the side, Lu Ze looked impatient.
Joe was annoyed, thinking he'd probably been photographed.
Next is Bai Xiaoxiao's interview. She smiles sweetly at the camera: "I am very happy this Mid-Autumn Festival. I hope my leg will heal soon, and I also hope to learn the violin from Mr. Wei, a musical genius... As for Mr. Lu Mr. Lu is the most important man in my life."
After finishing, Bai Xiaoxiao's eyes had a hint of guilt.
Four years ago, she impersonated Qiao Xun, making Lu Ze think that the person playing the violin every day was her.
She is afraid that Lu Ze will find out.
But soon, she convinced herself that when Lu Ze woke up, it would be Bai Xiaoxiao holding her violin in the hospital room, and Lu Ze wouldn't know.
......
Late at night, on the streets of B City.
Qiao Xun stood quietly, tilting her head slightly, watching Lu Ze's protection of others on the big screen.
until her body was cold.
She came to herself slowly, whispering softly: "So it's Mid-Autumn Festival."
She put on her violin and turned away.
The street lamps on both sides of the road stretched her figure long and long...... didn't want to listen to him being a scoundrel.She went to the cloakroom, changed into the most ordinary set of clothes, and was about to leave with her phone.Lu Ze stood up and said, "I'll see you o...
