Chapter 774: Distress and Self-blame
Normally, every Friday afternoon, Wang Ya would attend the gatherings of the wives' circle on time, dressing up carefully and attending in her best attire. She would chat and laugh with the wives in luxurious places, enjoying the so-called social time that belongs to their circle.
However, the call from the little man last night disrupted her plans.
He was about to give her a last-minute snack, and his tempting tone made Wang Ya feel itchy, but for some unspeakable reasons she could only refuse.
She tossed and turned in her bedroom all night, her brows furrowed and her heart full of depression.
For her, material things have already been greatly satisfied, and what remains to be pursued now is nothing more than seeking spiritual stimulation and comfort.
How can a crappy party be as important as meeting your lover?
Gu Jia had been thinking that she would take advantage of today's gathering to get closer to Mrs. Yu.
Among those ladies, except herself, the other ladies didn't take her seriously, and didn't even look at her. Similarly, in the eyes of those ladies, she was just a person who was not presentable.
If Mrs. Wang suddenly changed her schedule and decided not to go, she might not even be eligible to attend, which made her feel helpless.
Ever since the child she had been longing for passed away, Zhong Xiaoqin felt as if her soul had been taken away from her.
She stayed at home all day, with empty eyes and haggard face, hypnotizing herself over and over again that the reason the child was gone was because Chen Yu didn't care about her and the child, didn't take good care of her and her mother, and it was because he didn't welcome the child. The child was spiritual, so that's why he left.
Chen Yu was helpless and speechless about this groundless speculation.
He really wanted to explain and defend himself to Zhong Xiaoqin, but every time he faced Zhong Xiaoqin's eyes full of resentment, as if he was really the source of all evil, and even the look of murderous intent when she saw him, Chen Yu swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue. He almost doubted that what Zhong Xiaoqin said was correct.
People often say that distance creates beauty. Zhong's mother has always been very satisfied with her son-in-law Chen Yu.
Being mature, steady, responsible, and having a job within the system, these conditions are very rare in the eyes of Zhong's mother.
However, once people stay together in close proximity for a long time, each other's strengths will gradually fade and become a norm and habit.
However, the shortcomings will be discovered slowly and then magnified indefinitely.
In the past, Zhong's mother didn't believe in the incompatibility of personalities and thought it was just nonsense, but now seeing her daughter's behavior, she has to believe it.
As a mother, I understand my daughter better; as a woman, I understand better what a woman really needs in a marriage.
Chen Yu has many advantages, but they are not enough to cover up his shortcomings. Moreover, because of her daughter's behavior after she became pregnant, Zhong's mother's impression of him has changed dramatically.
Although she has not yet gone to the extent of persuading her daughter to divorce, in her opinion, if Chen Yu does not make changes, their marriage will not last long.
So this time the child is gone and her daughter has returned to live at home. Apart from feeling distressed and taking good care of her, she did not offer proper persuasion as she did in the past when the two of them had a quarrel. This has led to the two of them currently being separated and in a state of cold war.
After two unsuccessful visits, and given that the TV station already had a lot of things to do and the boss was making things difficult for him after the last mistake, Chen Yu was in a state of panic in the office every day, looking very sad and having no mood to talk to Zhong Xiaoqin about science and metaphysics.
As the best sister, Gu Jia is naturally very worried about Zhong Xiaoqin. However, in this kind of situation, external forces are just external forces after all, and everything depends on her to get through it. All she can do is to show appropriate concern and persuasion.
She happened to have some free time today, so she thought of driving her bestie out for a walk.
As the car just left the community, a familiar figure was seen not far away. Gu Jia was slightly stunned. Just as she was about to get out of the car to ask if she needed help, she saw Mrs. Wang get into a very ordinary domestic private car.
My heart was immediately filled with curiosity, and I followed him.
Twenty minutes later, the car in front stopped at the gate of an ordinary apartment complex. Seeing Mrs. Wang getting out of the car, Gu Jia was surprised.
Mrs. Wang wore a hat, scarf, and sunglasses, and armed herself to the teeth. This made Gu Jia's curiosity burn like a flame poured with oil. She originally wanted to secretly follow her to take a look.
But when a white Land Rover passed by the car and quickly turned into the community, Gu Jia already understood what was going on.
If the last discovery was just some guesses and had not been confirmed, the current scene proved that her intuition was correct. This made her face instantly become very ugly, her brows were tightly furrowed, and her eyes revealed a hint of uneasiness and worry.
After all, I played a crucial role in bringing these two people together. Let's not talk about the future of this matter. If any trouble arises, will I be in trouble?
She herself had trouble getting over the hurdle in her heart.
Chen An had met two women, one of whom was Nana, a gentle and kind girl.
Needless to say, Andy, although she just wanted to build relationships at the beginning, during this period of time, Gu Jia got along very well with Andy. She liked Andy's personality very much, and in Andy, she seemed to be able to see another miniature of her own life.
Especially after Xiao Ming arrived and learned about Andy's life experience, he felt even more distressed for Andy.
Having lost her mother at the age of thirteen, Gu Jia has suffered a lot and feels even more sorry for Andy's orphan background.
Once this matter is exposed, how will Andy think of himself?
Half an hour later, Zhong Xiaoqin, who was in a very low mood, walked to the car with heavy steps, reached out and pulled the door, but found that it was not open. She frowned and knocked on the window. Only then did Gu Jia come back to her senses and opened the door.
"Gu Gu, what were you thinking about just now? Why do you look like you are worried about something?" After getting in the car, Zhong Xiaoqin looked at Gu Jia and asked puzzledly.
"It's okay." Gu Jia shook her head and looked at her bestie's thin face with concern in her eyes. "Xiaoqin, how do you feel?"
"That's it. I won't die. Let's not talk about this anymore. Didn't you want to take me out to relax? Where to?" Zhong Xiaoqin leaned back in her chair, her tone full of indifference.
"Are you hungry? Why don't we go eat something first?" Gu Jia suggested.
"Whatever." Zhong Xiaoqin leaned her head on the seat and looked out the window. She hadn't been out for a few days and actually felt a little uncomfortable. There was a hint of confusion in her eyes.
