Love After Divorce GL

7

At 2:30 in the morning, the temperature in Yuanxiang still hasn't dropped.

The scorching summer wind came from all directions, and every time it turned over, it was mixed with scorching heat.

Luo Zhen rode the bicycle very fast and steadily, and within a short while, he drove Ning Rou to the first fork.

"Turn left, go straight, just stop near Pingyang Road."

Still in a gentle voice, before Luo Zhen could ask, Ning Rou took the initiative to report her home address.

Turning left is a slightly steep downhill road. The street lights on both sides of the street are dimly lit. At a glance, you can't tell how long the road is.

Luo Zhen squeezed the brake, but the speed of the car did not slow down, only then did he know that there was a problem with the brake.

"The brake is broken, why don't you fix it?"

The sound of the creaking wheels disappeared as the car stopped, and almost instantly, the air fell into a dead silence.

Ning Rou lowered her head, grasping the seatpost with both hands, and could clearly hear the slightly hoarse voice of the woman in the hot and restless summer night.

It was obviously a very calm tone, but it was full of suppressed blame and worry.

"What if you fall down and get hurt, it's so late and there's no one on the road, what are you going to do?"

There was another cold rebuke, and Ning Rou buried her head even lower.

The car brake was broken the day before yesterday. At that time, Ning Baobao had a bad fever. She was busy in the hospital every day without touching the ground. She didn't even have time to eat. How could she have time to send the car for repairs?

She bit her lip, and there was a trace of embarrassment in her eyes. The hair on both sides fell slightly against her cheeks, and her whole face was completely hidden in the darkness. After a long time, she made a low excuse.

"I've been busy for the past two days. I'll send the car for repair tomorrow. Don't be angry."

"I ride slowly, so nothing will happen."

With such a soft voice, there is still some grievance hidden in the tone, especially when he said the four words 'Don't be angry', it seemed like he was acting like a baby.

Luo Zhen's heart trembled secretly, both hands unconsciously tightened on the handlebars, and quickly loosened them again.

This is a downhill road, there are no brakes, so what's the use of riding slowly?

When she turned her head, she happened to see a soft and delicate silhouette. In an instant, the question in her throat disappeared without a trace.

"Hold tight, it's going downhill."

Before Ning Rou could react, a cold hand grabbed her wrist.

The woman's fingers were long and slender, and they easily encircled her wrist. When she regained consciousness, both hands were already wrapped around the woman's slender waist.

The moonlight mixed with the light of the street lamps and fell together, shining a little light on the long road ahead.

Hot and stuffy summer nights are not completely insulated from romance.

It was obviously not the first time that Luo Zhen rode a bicycle, but Ning Rou's heartbeat started to speed up unconsciously.

The speed of going downhill was very fast, she hugged Luo Zhen's waist, and quietly pressed her deaf left ear to Luo Zhen's back.

At this moment, she seemed to hear the whirring of the wind blowing through her right ear.

This was the first time she felt the beauty of summer during the five years of hard life.

It usually takes 40 minutes to ride, but today it only took 20 minutes.

Pingyang Road will arrive soon, and further ahead is a narrow and dark alley.

Ning Rou's home should be behind this alley.

This should be an old neighborhood without even the most basic voice-activated lights. The bricks on the ground are all broken and cracked, and you can still hear creaking noises when you step on it.

It's so dark, the bicycle must not be ridden.

Luo Zhen stopped the car, waited for Ning Rou to get off, and walked into the alley with the black pushcart, without giving Ning Rou a chance to stop her.

The two walked one after the other for about three minutes before seeing a faint white light at the end of the alley.

"Let's send it here."

Perhaps because Luo Zhen didn't want Luo Zhen to find out how embarrassing her life was, Ning Rou quickened her pace and reached out to hold the handlebar.

In the darkness, her face was blurred, only her pair of brown eyes still shone brightly and movingly.

So clean and pure, people can't bear to refuse.

Luo Zhen lowered his eyes, his long and thick eyelashes moved slightly, and after a minute, he let go of his lips, and said two words gently and slowly.

"I'm leaving tomorrow, why don't you invite me to sit at home?"

"Divorced, aren't you even friends?"

Ning Rou was stunned when she heard these words, a trace of hesitation flashed in her eyes.

She really wanted to agree, but Baby Ning was at home now, after thinking about it, she shook her head.

"No, it's inconvenient."

Luo Zhen had already guessed that he would be rejected, so he didn't show any anger, but continued to ask, still using the most pleasant and coaxing tone.

"Inconvenient? Is there someone in your family? Who is it?"

Gentle hunting the trap, only waiting for the prey to jump into it by itself.

Hearing Luo Zhen said that there was someone in his family, Ning Rou immediately refuted.

"No one, only me, I live alone." He

emphasized so eagerly that there was no one in the house, and he knew that there was something to hide when he heard it.

Luo Zhen didn't press any more questions, nodded, took the initiative to let go of the handle, and returned the car.

"Be careful on the road."

"Go back."

Like a pair of old friends who have known each other for many years saying goodbye, everything is so peaceful and natural.

Ning Rou didn't realize how intense the emotional ups and downs were hidden under Luo Zhen's calm words.

She was even a little happy in her heart, thinking that Luo Zhen had forgiven her for leaving without saying goodbye.

She was about to walk out of the alley, but she still couldn't hold back, and greedily turned her head to take one last look.

The woman was still standing where she was, tall and slender.

The surrounding area was empty and silent, and there was no sound at all.

There was no expression on Luo Zhen's beautiful face, and his eyes were cold.

Hiding in the darkness, she saw Ning Rou stopped and looked at herself, and then left without looking back.

She hates to admit that she's been abandoned again, but that's the way it is.

Ning Rou has no nostalgia for her.

The lights in the courtyard seem to be broken, and the lights will flicker from time to time.

It wasn't until the sound of footsteps in the air and the creaking of the bicycle could no longer be heard that she took another step towards the direction where Ning Rou disappeared.

At the end of the alley is an old-fashioned red brick high-rise building. Judging from the design of the building, it should have a history of one or two hundred years.

The lights in the yard are very dim, Ning Rou's bicycle is placed downstairs, and the person should have already gone upstairs.

It was close to three o'clock in the morning, and the residents in the building were basically asleep, and none of the households had lights on.

Luo Zhen waited for a few minutes, and soon, the lights of the last house on the fifth floor were turned on.

Come to think of it, this is where Ning Rou lives.

She glanced around by the light, her brows furrowed tighter the more she looked.

The small courtyard is closed on three sides, and the alley is the only way in.

There is no door in the alley, which means that there are no security measures here, and safety cannot be guaranteed at all.

The open space on both sides of the yard was piled up with gravel, and when the wind blew, the air was full of flying ash and debris. The corners of the four courtyard walls were covered with weeds, and it had not been cleared for a long time, and the walls had already been plastered.

The degree of dilapidation here far exceeded her imagination.

She didn't even dare to think about how Ning Rou survived in this environment.

Working two jobs a day, still so short of money?

In Ning Rou's family, who else is there besides herself?

Luo Zhen's mouth was slightly stagnant, and his eyes were dim.

It wasn't until the last light on the fifth floor went out that he turned around and left.

Back at the hotel, it was fifteen minutes later.

It was so late, but there were still two people standing at the entrance of the hotel, a man and a woman, both of whom looked seventeen or eighteen years old from a distance, as if they were arguing.

Luo Zhen got out of the car, his face still gloomy.

She was still thinking about what Ning Rou was hiding from herself, when a girl in pajamas trotted to her side.

"Are you back?"

The person who spoke was Luo Fanxing, one of the two people who quarreled at the entrance of the hotel.

Luo Zhen was in a bad mood, subconsciously frowned, and his eyes became colder.

"It's past three o'clock, why are you standing here if you don't sleep?"

Luo Fanxing took out his mobile phone, and there were more than a dozen incoming calls on it, all of which were from Luo Zhenting.

It seemed that he already knew about his daughter's departure from Tianhai City.

"Dad called many times, but I didn't tell him that my sister-in-law is here."

Luo Zhen's phone was out of battery, and it was turned off at noon. She knew that Luo Zhenting would definitely look for her, so she didn't charge the phone at all.

Unexpectedly, Luo Zhenting finally found Luo Fanxing.

She nodded and was about to speak when the tall and thin young man at the hotel door also came over.

The two people's attention instantly shifted from Luo Zhenting to the boy.

Boys and girls, meeting late at night, the relationship between the two, you don't need to guess.

Luo Zhen pursed his lips tightly, not wanting to meddle in other people's business.

She originally wanted to go back to the room directly, but when she lowered her eyes, she saw a glint of anticipation and admiration flashing in Luo Fanxing's eyes, her heart hesitated slightly, and her lips loosened.

"Who is he?"

Luo Fanxing didn't expect that Luo Zhen would really ask, and he didn't respond for a while, but the boy took the initiative to speak.

"My name is Chu Ning, and I'm Fan Xing's friend."

Chu Ning?

very familiar name.

Luo Zhen raised his eyes to look at the young man, and finally saw a sense of familiarity from the other's brows and eyes, and remembered a man whom he had only met a few days ago——Chu Sui.

The Chu family's business has not been good in the past few years. Recently, they have been wanting to inject capital into the Luo family. Before she gave a clear reply on this matter, Chu Ning approached Luo Fanxing. No matter how she thought about it, something was wrong.

She turned her head and glanced at the girl beside her, her tone was as strong as ever.

"Go back to your room."

Luo Fanxing didn't know why, but still nodded obediently.

After she left, Luo Zhen turned his gaze to the boy.

"Chu Sui is your brother?"

The oppressive gaze made Chu Ning feel a little guilty.

He didn't expect that the woman in front of him could guess his identity at a glance.

"En."

Hearing the sound, Luo Zhen raised his eyebrows, his cold face was even more glamorous under the moonlight.

"How long have you been with Fanxing?"

Chu Ning was a little embarrassed for such a straightforward sentence, and it took a long time for him to reply embarrassingly.

"Half a month."

Half a month, isn't that the time when Chu Sui came to Rock's to discuss cooperation?

Luo Zhen's expression changed slightly, and his eyes became colder and colder.

Chu Ning was flustered by the sight, and he regretted that he should not have agreed to his brother's request and approached Luo Fanxing purposefully for the sake of the family's business.

He didn't want to stay any longer, and was about to find an excuse to leave when the woman's cold voice was carried by the wind.

"I think, you should know that the Chu family and the Luo family have business contacts recently."

"Fan Xing is still studying, if you want to talk about business, let Chu Sui come to me by himself."

"I will not prevent you from falling in love, but, I don't want her to be involved in the business affairs, understand?" A

cryptic speech contained a strong sense of warning.

Chu Ning opened his eyes, his heart was beating fast, and he felt that all the secrets in his heart had been thoroughly understood by the woman.

He nodded, his palms were covered with cold sweat, and when he came back to his senses, Luo Zhen had already left.

Luo Fanxing didn't know what the two people outside were talking about, so he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

She waited in the corridor for a long time, and finally brought Luo Zhen back.

Before anyone came over, she took the initiative to greet her.

"Where's Chu Ning?"

Luo Zhen raised his eyes when he heard the sound, his expression was still alienated.

"Let's go."

While speaking, she had already taken out her room card.

Seeing that she was about to enter the room, Luo Fanxing remembered something at this moment, and hurriedly called people to stop before the door closed.

"By the way, I forgot to say, Dad called again just now, asking when you'll be back?"

Luo Zhen paused, thinking of Luo Zhenting, his eyes showed some disgust, and even his voice was full of embarrassment. Indifference and chill——

"Tell him, don't call me again."

"When I go back to Haishi, it's my own business. He has nothing to do with it, and he has no right to do it."

"Since I'm here, I don't have any plans ." Go back so early."
