Marriage is long and desires are strong

Before leaving get off work, Jiang Wei received a WeChat message from Xu Mo: Weiwei, no matter what, we are still family. Don't overthink it. Come home and visit your mother when you have time. Your mother misses you.

Jiang Wei lowered her eyes, turned off her phone, and thought that once the household registration was transferred, it would be over and she would have nothing to do with the Jiang family.

When you sever ties with someone as serious as that, once you say it, it becomes a reality.

She will never turn back.

She went to the "Daojia" real estate agency where she had arranged to meet Xie Xun to complete the property transfer procedures. She was in a hurry to buy a house and wanted to transfer her household registration as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, she recognized the original homeowner in the conference room; it was Yu Ge, the owner of the yellow monk parrot Jiao Jiao.

Yu Ge was also surprised: "Dr. Jiang?"

Xie Xun was also surprised: "You two know each other?"

The three people sat down.

Yu Ge gently touched her wrist. On her left wrist, beneath the bracelet, were countless marks from when she had slashed herself with a knife.

Jiang Wei reminded her last time not to continue hurting herself, which made her decide to sell the wedding house. Unexpectedly, the buyer was Jiang Wei.

Yu Ge laughed: "Fate is truly wondrous."

Jiang Wei recounted how Jiao Jiao cried out in the hospital in the middle of the night, scaring Lao Wei half to death.

Xie Xun chuckled.

Yu Ge lowered her head: "It's because I used to cry a lot, and Jiao Jiao heard it and copied me. Parrots are the most sensitive creatures and the best at learning from their owners. It's my fault for not taking good care of Jiao Jiao."

She took a sip of water, toying with the glass in her hand. "I dated my boyfriend for two years, but he never knew my family was very wealthy. I wanted to buy a nice house, renovate it, and live together. Unexpectedly, I discovered he had another WeChat account. It turns out he not only had another WeChat account, but also another home."

"I was so depressed back then that I would cut my arm with a knife every day to make myself hurt, and I cried every day."

"I don't understand why I'm so unlucky, why this had to happen to me. Doesn't he feel any regret at losing someone who loved him so much like me?"

"It was Jiaojiao who stayed with me the whole time."

"I don't know where it learned this phrase, 'Mom, cheer up.'"

"I didn't even teach it, yet it can..."

"It keeps repeating itself, Mom, cheer up."

As Yu Ge spoke, her eyes reddened and her voice began to choke: "Even Jiao Jiao knows to be happy, but I don't."

"Then it started biting its toes while wearing the poop bib. I thought I should take care of my own things first, and then I would take good care of it. I was afraid that my mood would affect it."

Yu Ge suddenly raised her head: "Dr. Jiang, and what you said, 'blame others more and reflect less on yourself,' I've remembered."

Jiang Wei smiled and said, "Mm."

This house is great; buying it is a new beginning for me, a way to break free from the Jiang family. And for Yu Ge, selling it is also a new beginning, a way to escape old, unhealthy relationships.

Yu Ge let out a breath and whispered, "But... my ex-boyfriend is divorced."

"After he found out I could afford such an expensive house for our wedding, he suddenly said he loved me and got a divorce right away. He said he was willing to live in this house with me."

Xie Xun tensed up upon hearing this and stood up: "You said you were going to sell it before."

Yu Ge smiled sweetly: "For sale."

"How could I possibly be with a scumbag? Going back to that kind of guy would be like poison. Who knows, one day I'd end up in a bunch of random relationships, gray sacks, pink sacks, filling several sacks."

Jiang Wei laughed.

Yu Ge breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "I'm relieved if it's Dr. Jiang who bought it."

She raised her hand and swore, "No man has ever been in this house. I decorated it very carefully, and I thought about every corner thoroughly. You will like it."

The conference room door suddenly slammed open, and a man burst in: "Ayu, you can't sell!"

"I got divorced because of you, will you marry me?"

Yu Ge looked at him, her eyes becoming sticky: "Really?"

Man: "Really, come with me, I'm willing to be with you for the rest of my life."

Yu Ge lowered her head and thought for two seconds: "I'll go with you."

Xie Xun stared blankly at him.

The man was delighted and tried to pull Yu Ge away, but Yu Ge said, "Let's go outside and talk first."

The man exclaimed excitedly, "Okay!" and turned to leave.

Yu Ge followed, and the instant she stood at the door, she slammed the door shut and locked it.

She turned her head and laughed freely: "Dr. Jiang, I'll give you a discount when we go through the transfer procedures. It was originally 2300 million, but now I'll sell it for 1900 million."

There was a loud knocking on the door: "Ayu, let me in! You can't sell it, that's our wedding room!"

Xie Xun replied decisively, "Quickly, both parties sign. I'll handle it."

Jiang Wei smiled and said, "Okay."

The property sales contract was signed quickly.

All three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

The door opened, and a man stood in the doorway: "Yu Ge, you lied to me?"

Yu Ge smiled gently: "Yes, so what?"

The man paused: "You weren't like this before."

Yu Ge ignored him and pulled Jiang Wei, saying, "Dr. Jiang, I'm going to the hospital tomorrow to pick up Jiao Jiao. I want to start a new life."

Jiang Wei smiled and said, "Okay."

When Jiang Wei returned home, she was still smiling. Zhao Kui's problem was solved, and Yu Ge and Jiao Jiao would be even better off. Everything was moving in a positive direction. That's wonderful!

Unexpectedly, I arrived home at the same time as Qin Xiaoye.

The driver is opening the car door for Qin Xiaoye.

Qin Xiaoye stepped out of the black Maybach, with a pale yellow crescent moon, starry sky, and deep blue curtain of night behind him. He was handsome, noble, and elegant, with a calm and refined demeanor.

Jiang Wei stepped out of the ice-berry pink car, wearing a dark pink polo shirt and linen trousers. Her fair face looked pure and gentle in the moonlight.

Their eyes met, a fleeting, intimate touch in the darkness, their gazes thick and ambiguous.

Under the moonlight, two long shadows were cast.

Qin Xiaoye tilted his head slightly, his voice deep and pleasant: "Miss Jiang, what a coincidence."

It's soft and fluffy, and it can sweeten your heart.

Jiang Wei smiled gently and said, "Mr. Qin, a kind citizen, what a coincidence!"

Qin Xiaoye was taken aback and turned his head: "Hmm?"

Jiang Wei smiled gently: "Mr. Qin, the concerned citizen, you were the one who reported and arrested Shi Yuan, who abused cats, right?"

Qin Xiaoye said gently, "It was just an ordinary citizen doing their duty."

Jiang Wei's voice was soft, like a constantly flowing spring: "Thank you, Qin Xiaoye~"

Qin Xiaoye's voice was slightly hoarse: "Don't you think...the methods were too violent?"

He took a deep breath, not wanting Jiang Wei to think he was a bad person.

He didn't want Jiang Wei to know that he had used violent methods.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Wei followed Zhao Kui's lead and immediately found out that Shi Yuan was also reported by him. She's really smart.

Jiang Wei whispered, "No, I'm not an unreasonable person. I know you're helping me, and I'm very grateful for your help."

"Fight violence with violence."

Confucius said, "If you repay evil with good, what will you repay good with?"

"We should repay injustice with justice and kindness with kindness. Whatever they have done, we should repay them in the same way."

Qin Xiaoye looked deeply into Jiang Wei's eyes, which were dark and held an unfathomable light. His voice was soft: "I see."

Yes, Little Vivi is the kind of person who would point a chainsaw at the enemy.

Jiang Wei: "Yes, some people, if you talk to them about kindness, they'll just think you're weak and easy to bully. There's nothing you can do about those kinds of people, even if you fight them."

Qin Xiaoye smiled softly: "I see~"

His heart was gently enveloped by Jiang Wei's words, a cool and comfortable feeling rising within it, along with a touch of emotion.

She understood herself all along!

It felt as if a hand was gently stroking him.

So this is what it feels like to be understood. It's so comforting, so...touching.

Jiang Wei: "Yes, pitying people like that is just hurting yourself. I won't waste my sympathy."

Qin Xiaoye smiled gently: "I see~"

"Is this why you choose to take care of kittens and puppies? They won't waste your compassion, but people will."

Jiang Wei was also taken aback, then smiled faintly: "I won't be sad if I'm let down by cats and dogs. But I will be sad if I'm let down by people. That's why I choose to take care of cats and dogs."

Qin Xiaoye laughed: "I see~"

"Then you take care of them, and I'll take care of you, okay?"

Jiang Wei paused, her voice slightly hoarse: "Okay, Qin Xiaoye. You're such a good person."

The moonlight is gentle and pale, casting a soft glow on the light and shadows.

Pink and white flowers danced in the wind, carrying their fragrance.

Qin Xiaoye took two steps forward, standing in front of her. His shadow enveloped Jiang Wei, and he lowered his head, his warm breath brushing against her ear: "Is that so? But what if this good person wants to do something bad?"

Jiang Wei raised her clear eyes and said softly, "Then let's do it~"

"What for?"
