We didn't escape the seven-year itch

Chapter 39

A few days before the new year, Chu Yi received a call from Xu Xiangsong.

"Chu Yi, I'm back! Let's go out for a couple of drinks and get together. We haven't seen each other for a year."

Xu Xiangsong is his college roommate, and the relationship has always been good. The last time we met was during Chinese New Year last year.

Chu Yi had nothing to do, so he readily agreed, "Okay, when?"

"The time and place will be sent to you when the time comes, but I'm not sure yet." Xu Xiangsong said.

"it is good."

The next day after Chu Yi got off work, he took a taxi to the place Xu Xiangsong had mentioned.

Xu Xiangsong said that he wanted to have two drinks with him, and he really had two drinks with him. The meeting place was Jiaqing, and the name was "fall". No one knew what the boss meant, autumn or fall?

Chu Yi walked into the bar, country folk songs were played in the shop, the male voice was lazy and comfortable, Xu Xiangsong sat in the booth and waved to him, Chu Yi walked over and sat down.

"Long time no see." Xu Xiangsong smiled at him.

"Indeed, I haven't seen you for a year."

"How are you doing?" Xu Xiangsong asked casually.

Chu Yi asked without answering, "What about you? Seeing that you have been abroad for a long time, it should be good."

Xu Xiangsong took a sip of his wine, "I'm fine, I'm floating around all day long, unlike you, I live a peaceful and beautiful life."

Chu Yi didn't speak, and took a sip of wine.

Xu Xiangsong smiled, "If we don't get drunk today, don't worry, if you're drunk, I'll call Song Mingke and ask him to pick you up."

Hearing Song Mingke's name, Chu Yi's expression changed, and he stared at the liquid in the wine glass in a daze.

Xu Xiangsong looked at Chu Yi strangely, "What expression do you have, you don't want me to call Song Mingke? When was it not a dormitory dinner at school that turned out to be our other three single dogs eating dog food? It's not like I was with Song Mingke Unfamiliar."

Chu Yi changed his posture, as if he was very tired, he leaned on the sofa and closed his eyes.After a while, he opened his eyes again, looked at Xu Xiangsong and said, "We are divorced."

"What?!" Xu Xiangsong's voice was loud, causing the people around to look at them curiously.

Xu Xiangsong rubbed his face, as if trying to wake himself up, "Chu Yi, what are you kidding, I woke you up with alcohol, even if my parents say they want a divorce now, it is more credible than you and Song Mingke's divorce, you Is tm kidding me? That’s why old classmates scare you like this?”

Chu Yi looked at him, "I didn't tease you, it's been more than a month, the end of December."

"No... You just explain clearly... what's going on?" Xu Xiangsong looked at Chu Yi inexplicably.

Suddenly someone could confide, Chu Yi took a sip of wine, "I don't know where to start..."

"Say it, speak it quickly, and say whatever comes to mind." Xu Xiangsong looked anxious.

……

Xu Xiangsong looked at Chu Yi with clear eyes without saying a word, "I thought you would shed tears in pain and get drunk..."

"Promise him to drink less."

"So what's the problem with you two?" Xu Xiangsong asked, "Don't you two dislike each other?"

"En." Chu Yi nodded.

Xu Xiangsong looked at Chu Yi, "It's fine to chase him after he's gone. It's not like you two have some principled mistakes that you can't solve. In the past, Song Mingke often came to look for you in school. This time, why don't you take the initiative to look for him?" It’s enough to find someone else. Two people still love each other, and nothing else is a big problem.”

Chu Yi looked at Xu Xiangsong and suddenly smiled, "You're right."

Divorced can also remarry.

Song Mingke didn't feel safe, so he tried his best to give Song Mingke a sense of security.

He can also solve mother Chu's affairs.

……

For so many days in the past, Song Mingke took the initiative, so he will take the initiative in the future.

It will be New Year's Eve in two days, Chu Yi went to the supermarket to do some shopping, and then drove to Chu's mother.

"Mom." Chu Yi entered the door carrying something.

"Son! You're back!" Mother Chu was in the kitchen, when she heard the voice coming out of the kitchen quickly, she reached out to take the things in Chu Yi's hand.

There were quite a lot of things, Chu Yi didn't let Chu's mother do it, and carried them to the kitchen by herself.

"I'm stewing meat at home, you can eat here." Chu's mother stir-fried the bright red pork belly in the pot with a shovel, "Mingke didn't come over? Is it not a holiday yet? I just said his job It’s not so good, it’s almost the Chinese New Year, and there’s no holiday yet. How can one be busy cleaning the house and preparing the New Year’s goods alone.”

Chu Yi was putting things in the refrigerator, when she heard Chu's mother's words, she thought for a while, "Mom, I want to tell you something."

Probably because Chu Yi's tone was a little serious, Chu's mother turned her head and looked at him with doubts in her eyes, "What's the matter, tell me."

"I divorced Ming Ke."

"Divorced?" Mother Chu was stunned, "Son, did he do something..."

Before he finished speaking, Chu Yi interrupted, "No, he is fine, it's me who is not good."

"What's wrong with you? Don't you treat him very well? Did he divorce you?" Mother Chu obviously couldn't believe it.

"No, mom...it's not something that can be explained in a few sentences..." Chu Yi said helplessly.

"so what?"

"I plan to remarry."

"Hmm..." Mother Chu nodded, and continued to stir the meat in the wok.

Chu Yi thought that today he planned to solve the problem, and asked, "Mom, have you always disliked Mingke?"

Chu's mother was stunned, looked at Chu Yi and then lowered her head, "I didn't like it when you two got married. Your father left early, I brought you up, and I thought you could give your old Chu family After you stay, you are better off, and you insist on marrying a man. He is a painter and has no serious job. He looks good, but he is not good enough to eat.

But, after so many years, Mom knows that you like him, and the two of you can live a decent life.Mom didn't say anything. "

"But Mom...can you treat him better in the future?"

"Son, are you blaming me for treating him badly? Mom knows that Mom doesn't treat him very well, but I can see it. I haven't been doing it for you all these years!"

"Mom, I know that you care about me, but I also care about him. He and we are a family. If there is any rift between you and him, isn't it always me in the middle? Ming Ke has treated you for so many years So, you know, he's doing well, but he'll be sad if you don't have an outsider's acquaintance with him."

"Outsider? Which outsider?"

"Yuwei." Chu Yi said, "I know you like her, and you wanted to match me and her before, but that's all in the past. Mingke and I are very good, we are a family."

"Yuwei is sensible and caring, of course I like her."

Chu Yi looked at Chu's mother, "Mom, but the person I like is Ming Ke, can you treat Ming Ke better for the sake of your son? I have already treated him badly."

Mother Chu looked at her son, sighed, and nodded, "I know, if you really remarry, I will pay attention. But I have this temper, and I won't be able to change it for a while. I will try my best... "

"Thank you mom."

Mother Chu rolled his eyes at him, "Okay, it's not certain whether we will remarry..."

Chu Yi smiled, "For sure."

The author has something to say: Thank you everyone.
