Chapter 168 - Unlucky Marriage"I won't be going. I made an appointment with an old friend today. You had fun with me." Luo Qing Yun said.
"Who?" Su Chen Hao suddenly asked at this time.
"Huh?" Luo Qing Yun was startled, then reacted, "Oh, it's Mei Xin, it's been a few years since I last contacted her, and now that I'm back, I want to meet her."
"Address, I'll get the driver to send you." Su Chen Hao said.
"No need to trouble yourself, I …" Just go by yourself. "
"Not for you, but for the child in your womb." Su Chen Hao explained deliberately.
"…" Luo Qing Yun's face showed some embarrassment. Seems like she was thinking too much, "It's on Fengyuan Road.""I told the driver to wait for you downstairs." Su Chen Hao threw down these words and walked out.
Luo Qing Yun sent them off with her gaze. Looking at the time, it was already 8: 30.He went back to his room, changed his clothes, and went downstairs.
Sure enough, the driver was waiting for her downstairs. She got on the car, gave the driver the address, and headed in the direction of the Fengyuan Road.
At the cafe in July.
and He Mei Xin had come here four years ago to drink coffee together.
After four years, the cafe had been renovated and the tables and chairs had been replaced.At this moment, it was only ten minutes to the agreed time.
Luo Qing Yun walked in, found a seat and sat down. Then, he sent He Mei Xin a message, "Mei Xin, I'm here.
After waiting for about five minutes, he saw a woman with a belly wearing a sweater and pants walking in. She was holding a shopping bag that was filled to the brim and looked very heavy.After the woman entered, she looked around first. Finally, she found Luo Qing Yun who was sitting by the window, and walked towards her.
At first glance, Luo Qing Yun didn't recognize her at all. When she was sure the other party was indeed walking towards him, she looked at her face carefully.After four years of not seeing her, the lively and cute girl from before had disappeared. Instead, her face had turned yellow and her legs were swollen.
The moment Luo Qing Yun recognized He Mei Xin, she could hardly believe her own eyes.
What had she experienced in the past four years? Why did that cute girl who was originally so lively become like this?
"Mei Xin..." Standing up, she walked over to her and took the heavy shopping bag from her.
He Mei Xin looked at the Luo Qing Yun who stood in front of him, just like four years ago, and was still as beautiful and moving as ever.
"Qingyun." She extended her hand and the two of them, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, tightly hugged each other.
After the hug, Luo Qing Yun immediately helped He Mei Xin to sit down, and pulled her hand, "How did you become like this? Have you had a good time? "
He Mei Xin's expression was a little unnatural as she reached out to touch his own face to hide it, "It's pretty good, it's because I'm pregnant that my face isn't good."
"Nonsense, which pregnant woman is thinner than you are? Tell me honestly, are you having a hard time? " Luo Qing Yun had a child before, so she knew that if it was only because she was pregnant, she wouldn't be as thin as this.These days, pregnant women were the most important targets of protection. Each and every one of them treated her as if she were their own ancestor. How could she be like this?
"I …" He Mei Xin knew that she could not hide it from Luo Qing Yun. She opened her mouth to say something, but the phone in her bag suddenly rang.
She anxiously took out her phone from her bag. Luo Qing Yun saw that her phone was actually a obsolete antique phone from the market. It didn't even touch the screen.
He Mei Xin pressed the answer button, and carefully placed the phone by her ear. Before she could speak, she heard a man's roar from inside, "He Mei Xin, what the hell are you doing? How long has it been since I went out to buy a dish? "Hurry up and get back here. Who's waiting to do all these chores at home?"
Although He Mei Xin did not use a voice, but because the phone was an old man's computer, his voice was loud, so Luo Qing Yun could hear her voice clearly.
"I'll be back in a moment." He Mei Xin said as he covered his mouth.
"Ten minutes. If you can't get back here, then let's see how I'll deal with you." The man hung up.
He Mei Xin put the phone back in her bag and stood up from her chair, "Qingyun, I need to go back first.As he spoke, he prepared to leave.
Seeing that, Luo Qing Yun extended his hand and grabbed her hand: Mei Xin, don't leave first, I have something to ask you.
He Mei Xin wanted to leave anxiously, but seeing that Luo Qing Yun looked worried, she sat down.
"Mei Xin, was the person who just spoke your husband?" Luo Qing Yun asked.
He Mei Xin lightly nodded her head. Her gaze seemed to evade, as if she was unwilling to talk about that man."Your stomach is already so big now, and he still wants you to come out and buy groceries?" Luo Qing Yun looked at the heavy shopping bag. She couldn't understand what kind of man would be so confident about his wife coming out to buy things.
"My husband has to work, my mother-in-law has high blood pressure, and my father-in-law passed away early. Other than me, no one else has done these things." He Mei Xin said.
"Even so, you can't buy so many things at once and bring them back. What if something happens to you on the way? Also, could he just go to work and do nothing? I heard him on the other end of the phone last night telling you to dry your clothes. Can't he do these things for you at home? " The more Luo Qing Yun thought about it, the angrier she got. She couldn't understand why that weird girl from back then would choose such a weak man."I …" He Mei Xin wanted to explain more, but she thought that she had to hurry back home, so she said, "Qingyun, if you have anything to say, let's talk next time, I really have to go now."
With that, she struggled to lift up her shopping bag and prepared to leave.
Luo Qing Yun could not bear to see this, so she took out the bill and placed it on the table, then got up and caught up to her footsteps. She reached out and took the bag from her hands, "I'll send you back."
"Qingyun, you … "No, I can do it myself." He Mei Xin didn't want to trouble her."Alright, enough. I have a driver outside. Didn't he give you ten minutes to get back? You can't go back in half an hour, let alone ten minutes like this. " Luo Qing Yun said as she strode out of the door.
The driver was in the parking lot in front of the coffee shop, when he saw them come out, he immediately drove over. He stopped and got off the car, taking the shopping bag from Luo Qing Yun and putting it in the trunk.
They got on the car and sat in the back. The driver asked, "Miss Lowe, where are we going now?"
Luo Qing Yun turned to look at He Mei Xin, "Mei Xin, where do you live?""It's in the Plum Blossom Community on the Meiyuan Road." He Mei Xin said.
When the driver heard the address, he started the car and drove towards his destination.In the car, Luo Qing Yun pulled He Mei Xin's hand, "Mei Xin, tell me, how did you get to know your husband?"
"We met at work. We used to work together."
"Colleagues? I remember that you used to work in the Hauptverwaltungsgebaude, and he was also an employee there? " Luo Qing Yun asked.He Mei Xin nodded, "He is from the Sales Department. "Because the company doesn't allow office romance, I quit my job in order to marry him."
"What?" Luo Qing Yun did not expect He Mei Xin to actually lose her head because of love, "For such a man?"
"He wasn't like this before. He was very good to me before, he cooked for me and even helped me do housework …"
"But now? Why doesn't he do those things anymore? "
"Right now, he's working too hard to support his family. Moreover, my mother-in-law won't let him do housework, so if I let him help me with my work, my mother-in-law won't be happy."
After Luo Qing Yun heard these words, she felt very upset in her heart, "Mei Xin, what exactly did you experience? Why do I feel like you've changed? ""Qingyun, people change. You have to learn to accept your fate. You have to know that not everyone can marry into a Wealthy Class like you." He Mei Xin lamented.
Hearing He Mei Xin say that she was lucky, Luo Qing Yun laughed bitterly in her heart.
If her fate was good, then there would probably be no tragedy in this world.
"What about your parents? Do they know how hard it is for you to live in your in-laws' house? " Luo Qing Yun believed that no parents would be able to see their daughter suffer in front of their family.
"So what if I know? They were not the ones who urged me to marry. Even if I live in hell now, what can they say? You can't let me get divorced, can you? " When He Mei Xin said this, his tone was filled with despair.Of course, Luo Qing Yun also understood the principle that she would rather tear down a temple than ruin a marriage.
She changed her tone and touched He Mei Xin's belly, "How old is this baby? Is it about to happen? "
"It's been seven months. There's still more than a month until the due date." At the mention of the baby in his stomach, He Mei Xin's haggard face finally revealed a faint smile.
This was the joy of being a mother and welcoming a new life.
"I don't know if it's a boy or a girl, but if it's a girl, then she can be our future wife in the future." Luo Qing Yun said while beaming.
Hearing that, He Mei Xin smiled, and then revealed a weak expression: "You are Su Family's grandson, my family is not worthy.""Mei Xin, if you want to speak like that, then there's no meaning. How noble am I? How great was a ball? We're all the same. In the future, the baby in your stomach will have some potential, and you can become a rich family yourself. "
"That's true. Humans have unlimited potential." Hearing that, He Mei Xin was filled with hope again.
"Yeah, this is the He Mei Xin that I know, he must have hope and confidence in the future."After the two of them said this, the driver drove the car to the Plum Blossom Community.
It was different from what Luo Qing Yun expected, it was an old residential area, waiting to be demolished. Many families had already moved away.
