Ruoxi returned upstairs and took out her phone to call Zhang Yiteng.
The call went through, and a bustling voice came from the other end of the line, followed by her husband's voice." Ruoxi, I was just about to call you when you called. I have to discuss business with a client today, so I won't be able to go home on time. You eat first. I'll go back if I want to have fun."”
It was business again. Ruoxin no longer believed such lies.
"When will you be back?" Ruo Xi still did not have the courage to poke at this painful lie.
"I can't be sure. The client tonight is a bit difficult to deal with. Alright, I won't talk to you anymore.”Before Ruoxin could react, the other party had already hung up.
Ruoxin put down the phone and dialed again. However, no one picked up.
The wind blows dry in the morning, and the wind blows cold at night.
It was late at night, but there were still a group of people who were not in the mood to sleep.
Zhang Yiteng walked out of Dongchuan Hotel with Chen Qianqian in his arms. He looked at the time on his watch and saw that it was already past ten.
They arrived at the parking lot.
Both of them drove here. Chen Qianqian drove a red Fiat. She had just gotten her driver's license recently and was extremely happy.
The two of them stopped in front of the car. It was already very late, so the parking lot was relatively quiet. Occasionally, a figure would pass by and then leave in a hurry.
The two of them hugged each other, looking like they were reluctant to part.
"Why don't you send me back?" Chen Qianqian said coquettishly in Zhang Yiteng's arms. Her hand gently touched Yiteng's clothes. She looked like a little girl who was reluctant to part with him.
Zhang Yiteng gently patted Chen Qianqian's back and said," I'd better not send you. You can drive back by yourself. We both have a car. I think I should stop going to your place. She already knows where you are."”
"Alright then, but you have to kiss me again or I won't let you go.”They were flirting with each other as if no one was around.
"I really can't do anything to you."
Zhang Yiteng slowly pushed Chen Qianqian away from his arms and said in a low voice," It's getting late. Let's go back quickly. If we go back quickly, it won't be pretty if we get dark circles under our eyes."
Their bodies were separated just like that.
"Well, old age, dear.”Chen Qianqian smiled and swayed under the dim night light.
"Good night." Zhang Yiteng turned his back to Chen Qianqian, opened the car door, and got in.
Chen Qianqian saw that Zhang Yiteng had already started the car. She walked to her car, opened the door, and got in.
Just like that, the two cars drove out of the parking lot one after the other. They slowly moved forward on the wide road, maintaining a certain distance between the two cars. Finally, they reached a fork in the road. The two cars separated, one to the left and the other to the right.
When Zhang Yiteng returned home, it was almost eleven o'clock at night. His biggest headache was Roxi's probing, but he had no choice but to deal with it.
Zhang Yiteng opened the door. The living room was still brightly lit. Ruoxin was curled up on the sofa, and the television was still playing the endless Korean drama.
When Ruoxi heard the door open, she quickly averted her eyes from the television. She slowly stood up and stared coldly at her husband who was changing into his slippers.
"You still know to come back." Ruoxi's tone was very cold, so cold that it could freeze the warm water under the scorching sun.
Zhang Yiteng tried his best to make himself look very calm and collected. He walked towards Rachel step by step." What's wrong with you? Who provoked you again? You gave me a hard time the moment you entered."”Zhang Yiteng's tone was neither light nor heavy, but there was a hint of blame.
Ruoxi smiled coldly and said," You don't even have the patience to coax me now. I won't ask you where you're going so late because I don't want to hear any more lies. I have something to tell you."”Ruoxin wanted to say that she had to talk to him about her comeback. Although she had already predicted the outcome, she still had to calm down and talk to him.
Ruoxi sat in the same spot as before, while Zhang Yiteng sat on the single-seater sofa opposite Ruoxi.
"Let's talk about it tomorrow. It's already so late, so you should go and rest.”Zhang Yiteng seemed to be perfunctory. He thought that Rachel was going to talk about divorce again.
Ruoxi seemed to have read Zhang Yiteng's mind. She smiled at first, then sighed.
"I want to say that I plan to make a comeback. I hope you can support me. " Ruoxin's tone was very calm. It wasn't a plea, nor was it a struggle. It was just plain. She had long decided that regardless of whether her husband agreed to her comeback, she had to make a comeback. No matter what, it was impossible for her to get a divorce, so she would let her work numb her.
When Zhang Yiteng heard that Ruoxi was going to make a comeback, he stood up and said resolutely.”I won't let you make a comeback. You should give up on this idea as soon as possible. Alright, go to sleep. "Zhang Yiteng walked upstairs without looking back.
Ruoxin listened to her husband's voice as he walked up the stairs. It was as if her heart was broken. Why was he still so domineering? He was still so domineering even when he had made a mistake. What was she to him? Could it be the pet he kept at home? What was he in this family? Was he just a useless parasite? Ruoxin felt so sad. She remembered Zhao Qiuyun once saying that if a woman wanted to stand on equal footing with her husband in this family, she had to be self-reliant. The prerequisite for self-reliant was to be able to support herself and have an income. If she was financially independent, then she would be truly independent and self-reliant. Ruoxin did not think much of these words when she heard them, but now that she thought about it, it did make sense. Perhaps she was so weak because she did not have an income. Her husband had given her every needle and thread. She had the honor to swear that she would be self-reliant. She must be self-reliant.
Su Weiwei slapped a ticket in front of Rachel.
"Sister Weiwei, what kind of ticket is this?”Ruo Xi did not specifically look at which ticket, so she asked.
Su Weiwei told him to look at it himself.
Ruo Xi picked up the ticket and her eyes lit up.
"Sister Wei Wei, you're amazing to be able to get tickets for Louis Vuitton's spring fashion show.”Ruo Xi looked at Su Weiwei, who was drinking coffee, with admiration.
Louis Vuitton was an international brand. It was the dream of all fashionistas to be able to go to his fashion show. Whether it was international movie stars like Zhang Ziyi and Zhang Manyu, or ordinary women like Su Weiwei, they all had an incomparable passion for Louis Vuitton. It was naturally a blessing for a lifetime to be able to go to a live fashion show.
Lin Ruoxi was also considered a fashionista. She also had a fanatical love for a big brand like Louis Vuitton. She had long wanted to go to a Louis Vuitton fashion show, but she had never had the chance.
"I got two kinds of tickets, one for each of us. I'm being nice, right? You should take this opportunity to go out and relax.”Su Weiwei put down her coffee cup and said to Rachel.
Ruoxi looked at the date. It was the 25th of this month. Although she really wanted to go, she could not because she had to stay at home and study the script. She had not acted for almost eight years. This time, she was working with a big director, so she had to be in a good state in front of everyone. Ruoxi hoped that through this comeback, she could make a gorgeous appearance in front of the public, hoping to regain her lost confidence. She treated this comeback as a rebirth from the ashes. He had to be careful.
Su Weiwei noticed that the expression on Ruoxin's face had changed. She was no longer as warm and sunny as before, so she felt a little helpless." What's wrong?" Can't I go? Is it because your husband doesn't want you to go? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Do you know how hard it was for me to get tickets?”
Ruoxi shook her head and said," I really want to go too, but I can't. You should give this ticket to Tingting." It's not that Ito doesn't allow me to go, but I really have something to do, so I can't go.”
"What's so important? Could it be that your husband and Chen Qianqian still haven't broken up yet?”Su Weiwei asked straightforwardly.
Rachel shook her head at first, then nodded.
"Aiya, why are you shaking your head and nodding your head?”Su Weiwei shouted impatiently.
Ruoxi said," I'm planning to make a comeback. I just got a script recently, so I have to stay at home and study the script carefully. I haven't acted in so many years, so I have to recall the feelings I had in the past. Also, I feel that Yiteng and Chen Qianqian haven't broken up, but I can't find any evidence at the moment. Sigh, anyway, our relationship is getting worse and worse. We're always quarreling over some trivial matters. I want to make a comeback. I want to be an independent woman. Only in this way can Ito and I be truly equal. Perhaps if I become independent, Ito won't always suppress me.”
"I see. If you make a comeback, I'll definitely support you. If your husband finds out about this, he definitely won't agree.”Su Weiwei understood Zhang Yiteng's character, so she was worried about Rachel.
Ruoxi said," I knew he definitely wouldn't agree. I tried to talk to him that night, but his attitude was still as tough and domineering as ever. However, I'm determined to make a comeback this time. I also want to change my environment. I also want to temporarily forget about the recent unhappiness between Yiteng and me through being busy.”
