wealthy divorce

Chapter 5 Cypress Soup

Lyrical ditties were played in the bar, figures came and went in the dim light, sometimes whispering softly, sometimes laughing loudly, setting off an eager atmosphere.

Chu Ming sat in the corner of the bar, took a sip of the wine in his glass, and tapped his finger on the phone screen.

A text message popped up, with only two short words - "received".

The wormwood was light and slightly bitter, Chu Ming raised his head and drank the wine in his glass, and was about to get up, when there was an extra person in the empty seat next to him.

"Two shots of tequila, on the rocks."

The man had a warm voice, turned around and smiled at Chu Ming, "Long time no see, why don't you sit down for a while?"

A familiar yet unfamiliar face came into sight unexpectedly, Chu Ming froze for a moment, and recalled his identity from the facial features of this person after a few seconds.

"Bai Tang... Senior?"

"Just call me by my name,"

Bai Tang said, pushing the wine glass in front of him, "Are you alone?"

"Thank you, it's a person,"

Chu Ming said, "Come out to relax, how about you?"

Bai Tang smiled and said, "Me too, it seems that we are destined."

He picked up the wine glass and clinked it lightly with Chu Ming, the wine was slightly rippling, and a trace of light flashed across the side of the glass.

Bo Tang is a senior whom Chu Ming met in his first year of high school. He has a good family background and his parents are in other provinces.The relationship between the two was very good in high school, and it gradually faded after graduation.

Reunited after a long absence, the two of them talked more or less with emotion. Bo Tang mentioned the high school incident and said with a smile: "I remember you were the vice president of the cultural society at that time. In a blink of an eye, you became a big director. gone."

"Are you kidding me?"

Chu Ming smiled and said, "How about you, how are you doing recently?"

Bai Tang shook his head and sighed softly: "It's not good, I don't want to stay in the company, and then I was driven out by the old man to start a business."

He mentioned that he was planning to open an entertainment company, and now that the preparations were in the final stage, he extended an invitation to Chu Ming in a half-joking, half-serious way.

"How about it, do you want to change jobs and come to me? The salary is good, and the senior will definitely not treat you badly."

Chu Ming smiled indifferently, did not answer, but changed the subject with a few sentences.

Time passed by little by little, and before I knew it, it was past eleven o'clock.Chu Ming pressed her forehead drunkenly, and barely stood up while supporting the bar.

His figure swayed slightly, and Bai Tang quickly supported him.

"You can't drive a car like this, I'll take you back."

He leaned into Chu Ming's ear and said, "Where do you live?"

"...any hotel is fine."

With a confused mind, Chu Ming staggered and almost hung on Bai Tang's body.

"I don't know how to drink and still drink so much."

Bo Tang chuckled, and freed up one hand to grab his cell phone. At this moment, the screen of the cell phone lit up with a caller ID.

The caller displayed a unique string of "xxx". Bai Tang patted Chu Ming's shoulder and said softly, "There is a three-cross call for you."

Chu Ming didn't hear it very clearly, but responded vaguely.Bai Tang smiled and hung up the phone.

He helped him out of the bar, and it took several minutes to find his car under Chu Ming's chaotic instructions.During the period, the screen of the mobile phone was always on, and more than a dozen calls were made intermittently.

Bai Tang stuffed Chu Ming into the passenger seat, bent down to fasten his seat belt, and then came out to answer the phone.

"Hey?"

"……Who are you?"

A deep male voice came from the other end of the phone, with obvious coldness.

Bo Tang said: "I still want to ask who you are and what's the matter?"

The other end didn't answer, just asked: "Where is he?"

"Sorry, I can't tell you if you can't identify yourself."

Bo Tang said, "To him, you are just a series of unfamiliar numbers. How do I know if you are someone he knows?"

"..."

The other end stopped talking and hung up the phone directly.

Bai Tang glanced at the phone inexplicably, and put it back in Chu Mingyi's pocket.

The car drove out of the parking lot. At this time, there were no people on the street. The city lights came in through the car window, falling on Chu Ming's peaceful sleeping face.Bai Tang stared sideways at him for a few seconds, then slowly looked away.

-

The next day, Chu Ming woke up from a hangover headache and found herself lying in a hotel room.

The first thing you can see is the elegantly decorated ceiling, and the mobile phone is on the bedside, and it will automatically shut down because it is out of power.

A note was pressed under the phone, with Botang's handwriting on it. He explained what happened last night, and asked Chu Ming to report his safety when he got home.

The air is fresh in the morning, and the headache is relieved a lot.Chu Ming drove around the street a few times, found a small shop to have breakfast, and then returned home when Bai Yi went to work.

Sure enough, Bai Yi was not at home. Chu Ming charged the phone, and when it was turned on, dozens of hundreds of messages popped up.

He checked casually, and there were dozens of missed calls, most of which were from "xxx", and some were from Meng You, Bai Fuxing, and other people at work.

Chu Ming had expected this for a long time. He first called Bo Tang to express his thanks, and then sent messages to some people.After finishing the reply, a piece of news just popped up with the headline "Chengying President Liu Hao was suspected of multiple crimes including taking drugs, and was taken away by the police for investigation."

Chu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed and leaned on the sofa for a while.

Not long after, the phone rang again, this time it was from Meng You.

"What's going on, what's going on, Liu Hao was arrested."

As soon as the call was connected, Meng You on the other end said eagerly, "What happened? It's too sudden!"

Chu Ming said lightly: "If you do something wrong, you will be punished. There is nothing to say about that."

"That's true, but what will you do in the future? I remember your contract is about to expire."

Meng You said, "Are you still planning to stay in Chengying?"

"I don't plan to,"

Chu Ming said, "I'll go outside for a while after dealing with the matter here, I've been holding back here for too long."

"That's fine, as long as you're happy."

Meng You hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Although it's not good to say it, I still want to remind you first—do you remember Ji Ze?"

Chu Ming spent a few seconds recalling the name, and said "Oh", "I remember."

Ji Ze - Bai Yi's old lover in high school, Bai Yueguang who went abroad three years ago.

Meng You said in a low voice, "He has returned to China."

Chu Ming tightened her fingertips slightly, and then calmly said, "Well, what then?"

"...You should give me some reaction!"

Meng You howled, and then quickly said, "Let me tell you, there must be something wrong with him coming back at this time. Although you are about to get rid of Bai Yi, you still have to be careful with this person."

"understood,"

Chu Ming smiled slightly, but the sadness in the smile was concealed, "Actually, no matter what happens to him, it has nothing to do with me."

"Who is he referring to?"

A deep male voice suddenly interjected, Chu Ming paused, and raised his head abruptly.

——On the stairs, Bai Yi just walked down from the second floor, and was standing by the handrail, looking down at him.

Chu Ming: "...Let's talk later."

The last sentence was addressed to Meng You, and he hung up the phone immediately after.

The living room fell silent, Bai Yi walked towards this side, Chu Ming just wanted to get up, but he grabbed his wrist and forcibly pushed him back.

Chu Ming: "Let go!"

The thin lips pursed into an icy arc, Bai Yi didn't speak, but pulled off his coat vigorously, and put his hand under the shirt.

The two of them got very close, and as they couldn't stop struggling, Chu Ming smelled the faint scent of perfume from Bai Yi's suit, which was a minor fragrance unique to women.

A burst of extreme disgust emerged from the bottom of his heart, and he suddenly burst out with a huge force, kicking Bai Yi off his body!

Bai Yi obviously didn't expect him to explode suddenly, and staggered back against the coffee table. The man raised his head, his eyes were still slightly stunned.

Chu Ming glanced at him indifferently, and sneered sharply: "Go and find your Yang Mei."

Leaving those words behind, he stood up from the sofa and walked straight past Bai Yi.

"..."

Behind him, Bai Yi's eyes were in a trance for a moment, the expression in his eyes changed several times, and finally fell firmly on Chu Ming who was about to go out.

He immediately chased after him, wrapping his arms tightly around Chu Ming's waist from behind, and with the other hand, he slammed the open door with a "bang".

Chu Ming: "..."

He was really laughed at this time, and just about to get angry, he heard Bai Yi whispering in his ear: "I have nothing to do with her."

"It's none of my business, let go!"

"Don't let go,"

Bai Yi said, "Today is a family gathering, come with me."

Chu Ming snorted coldly: "I'm not a Bai family member."

——This sentence was said by Bai Yi in front of everyone when he first entered Bai's house for the first family gathering three years ago.

Bai Yi was silent for a few seconds before saying, "I'm sorry."

After speaking, he lowered his head and kissed Chu Ming's earlobe.

Chu Ming: "..."

He violently broke away from Bai Yi, and took three steps back until his back touched the door.

The atmosphere in the entrance was extremely stiff, and neither of them spoke for a while.

Bai Yi tried to get close to Chu Ming several times, but was stopped by the guard in his eyes, so he could only stand there, his eyes locked on him, never moving away.

I don't know if it's Chu Ming's illusion, but he always feels that the man in front of him... is a bit like a pitiful big dog that is despised by others.

What a mess!

Chu Ming put aside this thought, turned around and pressed the doorknob.

Bai Yi immediately stepped forward and grabbed his hand, using the injured arm. After pulling, Chu Ming heard him grunt, maybe the wound burst.

After all, this hand was hurt for himself. Thinking of this, Chu Ming forcibly suppressed his anger, turned around and grabbed Bai Yi's wrist.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

"Don't go,"

Bai Yi said, "I apologize to you."

"So what about an apology,"

Chu Ming said coldly, "Anyway, my marriage with you is only a month old, and then Mr. Bai can find as many people as he wants—oh, I forgot you can do it now."

Bai Yi said in a low voice: "We will not divorce."

His voice was too low, Chu Ming didn't hear it clearly, and didn't care.

"That's it. I've been here for three years, and everything you want has been taken away from me."

He said, "When next month comes, we will have nothing to do with each other."

"..."

Bai Yi opened his mouth and said something silently.

Chu Ming: "What did you say?"

"The wound is open,"

Bai Yi said, "Bleeding."

Chu Ming: "..."

He took a deep breath and pressed his forehead heavily.
