Ex-husband lost his mind

December in City B is very cold.

The snow fell heavily outside the window, and the cold wind blew across the bare branches, blowing down large swathes of white snow.

It was dark inside the window, only the faint light from the street lamp came in from the window, dimly illuminating a corner of the house, and also reflected the figure sitting on the sofa withered.

An Li didn't know how long he had been sitting there. When he regained consciousness, the phone had already been dialed.

He has long been familiar with that string of numbers, but the number of dials is only a handful.

An Li's eyes flicked across the cakes and delicate dishes on the table, and finally fell back to the phone screen - the call has not been answered yet.

Just when An Li's finger was about to touch the end button, a deep voice came from the phone.

"Hello."

Cold and distant.

An Li opened his mouth, but no sound came out of his throat.

The other party didn't hang up the phone, probably because he continued to be busy with work and didn't care who was calling him.

"Xu Scen..." Finally finding his voice, An Li said with difficulty, "It's me, An Li."

"I know."

Xu Scen fell silent again, but An Li could hear the crisp sound of typing on the keyboard from the phone.

Even though he already knew the answer, An Li couldn't help asking, "Are you coming back tonight?"

The sound of typing on the keyboard paused for a moment, but An Li's response was a straightforward rejection, "I won't come back."

"Oh...okay." An Li responded and hung up the phone hastily.

Throwing the phone casually on the sofa, An Li leaned back on the sofa.

It was already past ten o'clock in the evening, and it was less than an hour and a half before Xu Scen's birthday ended.

He started busy at eight o'clock in the morning, wanting to celebrate Xu Sicen's birthday, but the protagonist of the birthday didn't plan to go home.

Just like the more than 600 days and nights since he and Xu Sichen got married for two years.

An Li raised his hand to cover his eyes, and the corners of his lips were tightly pursed.

Obviously, the current results have shown that his original choice was wrong.

……

The An family and the Xu family have always had business contacts. After An Li was admitted to a university in City B, Father An asked the Xu family in City B to help take care of An Li.

It was at that time that An Li met Xu Scen, and also grabbed the tail of youth, and had a sour crush.

However, Xu Scen seems to be born with a lack of affection, he is indifferent to everyone, and all the care for An Li is because An Li is a child of a business partner.

When An Li graduated from university, there was news that Xu Sicen was going to marry the daughter of the Su family.An Li deeply felt that this secret love of hers would not bear fruit, so she chose an instant trip.

In two years, An Li has traveled almost half of country C.

Two years later, An Li returned to City B. Xu Scen was not married and was still single to this day.

It happened that Xu's family and An's family strengthened their cooperation in work, and both parties had the intention of marrying. After thinking about it for a few days, An Li agreed to marry Xu An's family.

At that time, An Li naively thought that after marrying Xu Scen, he could warm Xu Scen's cold heart...

The results of it?

After two years of marriage, Xu Scen was either working or on his way to work.Not to mention being one step closer to Xu Scen, even seeing him face to face is as difficult as reaching heaven.

Today is Xu Scen's birthday, An Li sent a message to Xu Scen yesterday, asking if Xu Scen can go home?Xu Sichen didn't reply to him.

Even so, An Li spent a whole day preparing a table of sumptuous dishes for Xu Scen, and baked a cake with his own hands, hoping that Xu Scen could read the message he sent yesterday and go home.

In the end, the waiting room was still empty.

No matter how hot the relationship was, after two years of hot faces and cold butts, it gradually cooled down amid repeated disappointments.

Today is An Li's last chance for himself.

The wind and snow outside the window got bigger.

The pointer of time crosses zero, the end of the day, and the arrival of a new day.

Xu Sichen did not come back.

An Li maintained the previous sitting posture, sitting on the sofa, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a while, he wiped his face and sat up from the sofa, walked to the table to heat up the dishes.

He hasn't eaten all day today, and now he feels very hungry.

Smelling the scent wafting from the pot, An Li felt like a complete idiot.

Isn't it just a man?Isn't it six years of secret love and two years of marriage?

As for the stalker who wants to die or live?

He is only 26 years old this year, and he still has a lot of time for the rest of his life. In those eight years, his youth and ignorance have been fed to the dogs!

An Li reached out and raised the corner of his lips, showing a big smile.

"An Li, say goodbye with a smile."

……

It was past one o'clock in the morning when An Li filled his stomach, walked around the villa a few times to digest food, washed up, and lay down in bed.

An Li pressed Xu Scen's WeChat and sent a message to Xu Scen.

[ann: Xu Scen, let's get a divorce. 】

[Ann: See you at the Civil Affairs Bureau at nine o'clock on Monday morning. 】

After sending the WeChat message, An Li didn't wait for Xu Scen to reply, he put his phone on the bedside table and went to sleep.

That night, An Li slept very soundly, didn't even dream, and slept until almost noon before opening his eyes.

Sitting up from the bed, An Li habitually took a look at the time on his phone, and found that there was an unread message from Xu Scen on WeChat.

An Li opened WeChat without hesitation, and saw Xu Scen's reply.

[Xu Scen: Good. 】

There is only one short word, crisp and neat.

Those who wanted to return this message did not have any hesitation when replying.

An Li was not surprised by this.

When the Cheng family proposed to marry, Xu Scen approached An Li to make a verbal agreement on their marriage.

The agreement stipulates that if either party proposes to terminate the marriage, the other party shall not refuse.

An Li reckoned that Xu Scen had already planned to divorce at that time, and now that he filed for divorce, it could be regarded as a relief for Xu Scen.

……

An Li is not an indecisive character. Now that he has decided to let go, he will not allow himself to indulge in the sadness that he cannot ask for.

After getting up and washing up, he warmed up the leftovers left over from last night casually, settled for breakfast and lunch, and An Li immediately started to pack his luggage.

This villa was bought by Xu Sicen, An Li would definitely not be able to continue living here after the divorce, and moving out was a certainty.

Two years is not a long time, but it is not short either.Every corner of this house is full of traces of An Li's life. It is really a big project to clean it up.

It took An Li two full hours to sort out all his things.

He took out his mobile phone and was about to call the moving company, but he saw several missed calls on his mobile phone. He was too absorbed in packing his luggage before, so he didn't hear the ringtone of the mobile phone.

These missed calls were from An Li's friend Zheng Mingnan, and they were kept at a frequency of every 10 minutes.

An Li first called the moving company as planned, and then called Zheng Mingnan back.

There was a beep on the phone, and the call was connected.

Before An Li could speak, Zheng Mingnan's anxious voice came from the phone, "An Xiaoli, help the world!!"

"The recording of my show will start tomorrow morning, but one of the guests is suddenly unable to come because of an urgent matter. Come here quickly and I will support you!"

Zheng Mingnan is the program planner of H Provincial TV Station. He used to work as an assistant for others, and never led the planning of a program.This time, the higher-ups assigned a task to Provincial H TV Station, hoping that they could shoot a program about the food of country C, so as to promote the food of country C.

This is a task assigned by the superior. The leaders of Provincial H TV station attach great importance to it. The director of the station values ​​Zheng Mingnan, so he appointed Zheng Mingnan to be the chief planner of this program.

This is Zheng Mingnan's first time taking on a major role, so he naturally attaches great importance to it. It took a month to set up the production team of the show.

Optoelectronics issued regulations the year before last that reality show variety shows should increase the participation of amateurs, and this show planned by Zheng Mingnan is no exception.It happened to be a food-related program. Zheng Mingnan and the production team planned to find two amateurs with good looks to be the technical directors of the program, leading the stars to complete each recording.

Zheng Mingnan's first thought was An Li.

Firstly, An Li is a professional chef. He cooks excellent dishes. He is full of praise for all the dishes he has eaten, and his skills are guaranteed; secondly, An Li is good-looking and has a good figure. , the audience is willing to buy it.

An Li rejected Zheng Mingnan's invitation, he didn't really want to be exposed under the camera.

Zheng Mingnan didn't force him, and went to find other amateurs.

It took Zheng Mingnan four months to finally complete all the preliminary preparations and start recording.But who would have thought that on the eve of the recording, one of the amateurs couldn't come because of something, Zheng Mingnan could only find An Li to save the scene in a hurry.

"An Xiaoli, just think of it as helping me. If there is a problem with the recording tomorrow, our director will definitely cut me off. As for the camera problem, our show is still a reality show for artists, and the main shots must be on the artists. I'll talk to the director and the post-editing at that time, and ask them to show as few shots of you as possible..."

On the phone, Zheng Mingnan's voice kept coming, intending to try his best to persuade An Li.

"I……"

"I'm already at the airport now, and I'll come to your house to look for you tonight." Zheng Mingnan didn't give An Li a chance to speak at all, and broke his neck and said, "An Xiaoli, I can't pull you and come with me. City, I will stay at your house, and I will die anyway if I go back to Taiwan."

An Li: "..."

"I promised the head office." An Li knew how much Zheng Mingnan valued this show, and compromised under Zheng Mingnan's strong invitation, mainly because he wanted to find something to do for himself now, "You don't have to come here, I'll buy one For the air ticket tonight, I will go there by myself."

As if afraid of An Li's repentance, Zheng Mingnan immediately said: "Then I'll wait for you at the airport in City C, we'll see you there!"

When the call was about to end, Zheng Mingnan added another sentence: "I will reimburse you for the air ticket!"

……

When Zheng Mingnan was planning the show, he asked An Li some professional questions. An Li knew a little about the recording process of the show, and each recording took about two days.In other words, if he went to participate in the recording of the show tomorrow, he might not be able to come back on Monday.

But he has already made an appointment with Xu Sichen to go through the divorce procedures on Monday.

An Li didn't want to miss the appointment.

He looked up at the clock on the wall, it was 02:30 in the afternoon, today was Friday again, and the Civil Affairs Bureau was not off work yet.

An Li thought about it, and finally decided to call Xu Scen.

The call was quickly connected.

An Li spoke first: "Xu Scen, I have something to do on Monday, so I'm afraid I won't be able to make it back."

The other end of the phone was silent for a while, just when An Li thought that Xu Scen would be unhappy because of his missed appointment, he finally heard Xu Scen's voice, "Oh."

It's flat, without any emotion.

An Li didn't bother to think about Xu Scen's emotions, and said directly: "There are still more than two hours before the Civil Affairs Bureau gets off work, why don't we go get the divorce certificate now."

There was another lengthy silence.

An Li: "Xu Scen?"

"...Okay." Xu Scen finally answered.

An Li didn't hear the hesitation in Xu Scen's tone, but thought he was busy with work again, so his reaction was a little slow.

An Li asked again: "Where did you put your marriage certificate? I'll bring it to you by the way."

Xu Scen: "No need."

Since the other party said no, An Li didn't ask.

I'm just a little confused, where is Xu Scen's marriage certificate kept?After they got married, An Li never saw Xu Sichen's marriage certificate.

Are you still carrying it with you?

An Li was amused by his whimsical thoughts.
