Film and TV: Starting from childhood, I will give up Zhong Yi

Chapter 260 The Queen's Story, Gu Jia's Divorce
"Be good, hold on for a while."

After the tenderness, Lin Yuan's fingertips began to wander among her sore leg muscles, with neither light nor heavy force.

Zhong Xiaoqin curled up and groaned. If Lin Yuan hadn't insisted on using strange movements, her calves wouldn't have cramped.

When the soreness gradually subsided, Zhong Xiaoqin pulled Lin Yuan's big hand and fell onto the soft bed. She sighed and said, "I really didn't expect that Xu Huanshan would cheat on her."

"Gu Jia and Xu Huanshan, one climbed up the ladder, and the other guarded the wellhead and refused to move.

Xu Huanshan couldn't control Gu Jia. Gu Jia had the final say in everything at home. If she couldn't get satisfaction at home, she could only seek comfort outside. It was only a matter of time before the couple had a rift. "

"But they were so loving before!" Zhong Xiaoqin was so anxious that she propped herself up. The silk sheets slipped down her shoulders, revealing half of her fair skin. She said in a puzzled voice, "You also heard what Xu Huanshan said on Gu Jia's birthday."

Lin Yuan gently pressed her shoulders and pulled her back into bed. His fingertips caressed the hollow of her collarbone and he whispered:
"People are willing to believe those romantic love stories, so they naturally think the best of it, but love words are just love words. Let me tell you a story."

Zhong Xiaoqin's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she pursed her lips and nodded.

Lin Yuan began to tell the story: "The heroine of the story is called Leila. She grew up in the most dilapidated slum in Gulanya. But she was born beautiful and intelligent. She knew that only by studying could she change her destiny. She relied on her own efforts to be admitted to the top university in Gulanya."

"Later, she went to study in Europe, where she met Amir, who was still a prince at the time."

"Amir fell in love with her at first sight. He sent her flowers, held an art exhibition, chartered a cruise ship for a fireworks show, and used all the romantic tricks he could. But Laila only asked one question: 'Can you love only me in this life?'"

"Amir nodded without hesitation, and the two soon fell in love and got married."

"After marriage, Leila was not content to be just a princess. She worked hard to seek welfare for the lower classes and actively participated in public welfare undertakings."

“We pay special attention to education and the promotion of women’s rights, and are committed to improving the social status of Quranya women and encouraging them to receive education and participate in social affairs.”

"Laila personally visited every inch of land in Quranya, built schools for girls, opened textile workshops for peasant women, and her portrait was even printed on commemorative stamps. Whenever people mentioned her, they praised her as the 'Desert Rose of Quranya'."

"It was because of her existence that Amir was designated as the heir to the throne by King Gulanya."

"Under Laila's influence, Amir promulgated a monogamous code after he ascended the throne. The whole country celebrated, and Laila became the object of worship for thousands of women across the country."

Zhong Xiaoqin's eyes sparkled: "How wonderful."

Lin Yuan's voice suddenly sank: "The beginning of the story is always very gentle, but the ending is not worthy of it.

Although Amir still loves Laila deeply, he secretly keeps a mistress.

Leila was not unaware, but she could not say it. She was the beacon of hope for the women of Gulanya. If even a woman like her could not hold a man's heart, then the enacted monogamy was nothing but a joke. Other equal rights bills that were introduced with great difficulty would probably fail halfway for the girls who had just entered school.

In order to maintain the stability of the country and for the rights and interests she advocated, she could only choose to bury the bitterness in her heart and continue to play the role of the perfect queen in front of others. "

Lin Yuan knew that it would be a bit cruel to tell Zhong Xiaoqin the truth directly, so he had to use this method to let her prepare mentally in advance.

Zhong Xiaoqin managed to utter a sentence after a long while: "Ah?"

She pouted, looking a little uncomfortable.

Lin Yuan held her tighter in his arms, letting their heartbeats touch each other. He stroked her back with his fingertips and chuckled, "Although Amir has other women, the woman he loves most is only Laila.

Laila also loves Amir deeply, because without Amir's support, her ideals of benefiting the people are nothing but a pipe dream.

As long as they feel happy and worth it, what else matters?

Just like Gu Jia, she has her own considerations on whether to divorce or not, and we just need to respect her decision."

Zhong Xiaoqin nodded repeatedly: "Yeah."

Lin Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The story he deliberately made up almost had no ending, but fortunately it came together in the end.

He suddenly traced his fingertips along her waistline in an ambiguous way, teasingly changing the subject: "A few months ago, I never thought we would sleep in the same bed."

Zhong Xiaoqin asked curiously: "When did you think about it?"

Lin Yuan leaned in and bit her earlobe. "That morning in the hotel, you, as a girl, hinted at me like this. If I don't wake up, wouldn't I be letting you down?"

She was so ashamed that she buried her face in his arms and said in a muffled voice: "I really thought I was dreaming at that time"

Several months later, although Zhong Xiaoqin still remembers the impressive dream, she no longer has the immersive and unforgettable feeling.

"Of course I believe you. You are the most beautiful and pure woman in my heart. But you dreamed of me in your dream. Doesn't this prove that we are destined to be together?" Lin Yuan tightened his arms, his voice tinged with loneliness: "If only my parents didn't take me abroad, maybe they could take care of our children now."

Zhong Xiaoqin felt a little regretful after hearing this because she was unable to give her best self to Lin Yuan.

Zhong Xiaoqin is different from those who enjoy the efforts of others with ease - she will carefully treasure every bit of tenderness given by Lin Yuan, and then carefully return it with ten times the love.

Lin Yuan seemed to have sensed her emotions and used a series of powerful moves to make Zhong Xiaoqin breathe rapidly and her mind go blank. She could only passively sink into his surging love and had no time to care about the sorrow lingering in her heart.

……

The morning sun shone through the gauze curtains, and Lin Yuan gave a gentle kiss, gently waking up Zhong Xiaoqin who was still asleep.

Zhong Xiaoqin's eyelashes trembled and she slowly opened her eyes. Every time she woke up in Lin Yuan's arms, she could smell the faint and fresh scent on his breath, which made her feel at ease and addicted.

Zhong Xiaoqin was practicing horse riding. Lin Yuan's palm slowly slid down her soft waist and gently stroked her soft breasts through her thin nightgown.

She fell softly into Lin Yuan's arms, stuck out her tongue, and said with a nostalgic tone: "I want to sleep a little longer."

Lin Yuan raised his body slightly, with a smile in his eyes, and teased: "Are you going on strike now?"

Zhong Xiaoqin blinked her big watery eyes, her voice soft and coquettish: "Hubby, I'm really tired."

Lin Yuan patted her back lovingly and said with a smile, "Well, go to sleep."

It was indeed still early, and they had chatted until late at night last night. After all, Zhong Xiaoqin was a delicate woman, not as energetic as him, so she only needed to be bullied once.

With permission, Zhong Xiaoqin pecked Lin Yuan on the cheek, then turned over and curled up like a sated kitten.

After Zhong Xiaoqin's breathing became steady and regular, Lin Yuan quietly left the room.

After all, Xu Ziyan was still sleeping in the guest room. After a night, it would be a good idea to go and take a look at him.

……

The lawyer came to Grand Hyatt 1201 with the agreement.

Xu Huanshan looked at the property division agreement in his hand. The fireworks company was the business he had poured his heart and soul into, and it was also the most profitable project in his family. Gu Jia just gave it to him like that, which made him feel uncomfortable.

He was somewhat unwilling and asked, "What about Zi Yan?"

Gu Jia said calmly: "I will take good care of Zi Yan. If you miss him, you can come and see him anytime. This is your right as a father."

Xu Huanshan picked up the pen and signed his name after all. He knew that Gu Jia had made up her mind and nothing he said could change her mind. Gu Jia actually felt guilty towards Xu Huanshan. At this point, divorce was the only option.

But that kind of thing was destined not to be spoken out, so she would not make things difficult for Xu Huanshan in terms of property.

After seeing Xu Huanshan finish signing, Gu Jia also signed her name.

"Pack up your things. I'm also planning to find a new place to live. This house may not be sold for a while. Once the house is sold and the debt is paid off, I will transfer your share to you."

Gu Jia walked into the room and began to silently help Xu Huanshan pack his luggage.

Xu Huanshan felt reluctant at the thought of leaving this home. He reached out to hug Gu Jia, but she dodged him.

Gu Jia said calmly: "Don't miss some important things. I might get rid of them at the same time, and it will be hard to find them later."

Xu Huanshan could not hide his dejected expression. He didn't want to pack his things bit by bit like a loser, so after hurriedly packing some important items, he turned around and prepared to go downstairs, dragging his luggage.

Gu Jia followed him, and they both drove their own cars, driving towards the Civil Affairs Bureau in silence.

The divorce process this time was surprisingly smooth. On the one hand, Gu Jia could not accept the fact that her marriage had broken down. On the other hand, she also felt guilty and just hoped to end the relationship as soon as possible to give each other a relief.

Gu Jia stood at the door of Lin Yuan's house, took a deep breath and pressed the doorbell.

Zhong Xiaoqin quickly came to open the door and said in surprise when she saw her: "Gu Gu!"

Gu Jia forced a smile, her voice a little hoarse: "I'll come and take Zi Yan back."

"Mom." When Xu Ziyan heard Gu Jia's voice, he immediately ran over and hugged her calves.

Gu Jia squatted down and touched Xu Ziyan's head: "Have you been obedient in front of your godmother?"

"Have!"

Gu Jia stood up, pursed her lips, and said to Zhong Xiaoqin: "I will take Zi Yan back first."

Zhong Xiaoqin was worried, so she quickly followed him over.

In the living room of Gu Jia's house.

After Xu Ziyan came back, he went into the room to play with his toys. He played by himself. After all, he was just a child and could not feel the subtle emotions that adults deliberately concealed.

Zhong Xiaoqin's face was full of worry, and she called softly, "Gu Gu?"

Gu Jia shook her head: "Xiaoqin, you don't have to worry about me."

"You guys now..." Zhong Xiaoqin hesitated to speak.

"We're divorced." Gu Jia said bluntly, "I'm going to sell this house as soon as possible. Xiaoqin, please help me. You used to work as a property manager here. If you know of a buyer, remember to tell me."

Zhong Xiaoqin nodded: "Where will you and Ziyan live in the future?"

"Let's go back to my dad's old house first." Gu Jia smiled bitterly, "I haven't told my dad about this yet."

The reasons why she left Junyue Mansion were, firstly, that the house was a joint property and had to be sold for property division, and secondly, she also wanted to stay away from Lin Yuan.

The days will continue and Xu Ziyan still has to go to school.

Gu Jia had no plans to go far away to relax. Although she was heartbroken, she could not play the role of the victim in this matter with a clear conscience.

Others may think so, but she cannot really believe it in her heart.

……

Zhong Xiaoqin returned to Lin Yuan's home and told Lin Yuan about Gu Jia's situation.

Lin Yuan nodded slightly. He originally thought that Gu Jia would wait until Lin Youyou threatened Xu Ziyan before she would completely give up on the divorce.

I didn't expect it to be so fast.

But when I think about it carefully, I feel that all this is both unexpected and reasonable.

Gu Jia's strong personality makes it impossible for her to accept the fact that Xu Huanshan cheated on her. She herself has made mistakes and should understand better the harm this kind of thing can do to a marriage.

From this perspective, the incident between him and Gu Jia actually accelerated the process of Gu Jia's divorce.

In the following days, Gu Jia and Xu Ziyan moved out of Junyue Mansion and moved into Gu Jinghong's old house. Gu Jinghong also returned from the nursing home and lived with his daughter and grandson.

It is not the peak tourist season now, so Gu Jia's homestay business is not very popular, but the customer flow is still stable.

Gu Jinghong was responsible for picking up Xu Ziyan from school. Gu Jia promoted her homestay online in the morning and returned to the dessert shop to continue working in the afternoon.

Gu Jia knew very well that if she wanted to survive in Shanghai, she couldn't stop making money.

Because she did not suffer any loss from Mrs. Li this time, her relationship with the wives' circle has always been harmonious.

Although a few wives left the wives circle in disgrace, there are innumerable wealthy people in Shanghai, and there is never a shortage of noble ladies who want to enter this circle.

Gu Jia is considerate and willing to humble herself. After she came back, the dessert shop became even more lively.

Lin Yuan has been busy with his work these days. Everything has been settled now. If he goes to comfort Gu Jia now, she will probably think that he is greedy for her again. He is too lazy to make himself unhappy.

The amount Lin Yuan gave her last time was not small. If everything went well, he should wait until her belly bulged slightly before confronting her.

On the other hand, after Wang Manni resigned, she was depressed at home for a few days, and finally she picked herself up and prepared to look for a job.

However, after interviewing at several companies, the salary was less than half of what I had before. After paying the rent, the remaining money was not enough for food and drink.

Coincidentally, she received a call from her parents at this time, and she finally decided to leave the Magic City where she had worked for eight years.

Before leaving, she invited Gu Jia and Zhong Xiaoqin to have a hotpot meal.

It was also at this time that Wang Manni learned the news of Gu Jia's divorce from her casual words.

Wang Manni was very surprised and didn’t know if it was her own fault.

She has worked in Shanghai for eight years and only has these two close friends. Coincidentally, they are all divorced.

After the show, Zhong Xiaoqin returned to Lin Yuan's home. Now she stayed at Lin Yuan's home more and more often, and even Zhong's father and mother tacitly approved of their intimacy.

Zhong Xiaoqin nestled in Lin Yuan's arms, her tone somewhat sad:

"Gu Gu was so happy before, but now she has to start over again with her child. Man Ni has been in Shanghai for so many years, but she has to go back to her hometown in the end. I don't know if we will have a chance to get together in the future."
