From school uniform to wedding dress, but I don't want to marry you anymore

Chapter 147 I'll treat you to milk tea

Everyone also looked down upon Wu Zhong's behavior.

Pointing at his nose, he began to mock:

"What era is this? How dare you beat your wife?"

"You dare to beat me like this in front of others! Who knows how he bullies me at home!"

"Call the police! You have to call the police! He harassed a female college student and committed domestic violence. These two crimes combined, make him spend a few days in the police station!"

Seeing the crowd getting more and more excited, Wu Zhong completely got scared.

He turned and ran to his old car.

Before leaving, he did not forget to swear: "I will let you go today, wait! I will come after you one by one in the future!"

Everyone laughed out loud:

"Who's afraid of you? Get out of the car now if you have the guts! Coward!"

"Next time you dare to come to our school gate, let's see who will end up in the police station!!"

"Don't let him go now, stop his car!"

Hearing this, Wu Zhong became even more frightened.

He stepped on the accelerator and disappeared immediately.

Only Xu Wanxia was left standing there.

She covered her swollen face, tears welling up in her eyes.

But with so many people around now, she didn't dare to fall down and could only endure it.

Xu Wanxia bowed to the college students again and said, "I'm sorry, this incident was indeed my husband's fault. I apologize to you on his behalf. I promise that this will never happen again in the future."

College students are a simple and kind-hearted group.

Seeing Xu Wanxia being wronged and bowing to apologize to them, they were no longer angry and just advised her:

"Your husband is going too far. Did he bully you like this before?"

"If it really doesn't work out, just divorce. In today's society, anyone can find a job to support themselves. Anyone can survive after the divorce!"

"Thank you."

Xu Wanxia didn't say much, wiped her tears, turned around and left quickly.

Yun Ning sighed and followed over.

The two people returned to the fast food restaurant, but didn't see Wu Zhong and didn't know where he had gone.

Yun Ning supported Xu Wanxia and came to the small room next to the kitchen operation room.

This small house is where Xu Wanxia usually lives.

Busy during the day and rest at night.

The space was small, with a dimly lit light flickering in the corner. The lime on the wall had peeled off, revealing mottled marks.

The ground is always damp and exudes a smell mixed with oil smoke, mildew and staleness.

With every step I take, I can feel the slight coolness and dampness on the soles of my feet.

There were cluttered items piled up in the corners, leaving almost no room to stand.

The ceiling above your head is low, giving you the illusion that you might hit your head at any moment.

Yun Ning had left as soon as she finished her part-time job before, so she felt very depressed when she came in for the first time.

She had no idea how Xu Wanxia rested every night.

Yun Ning sighed and found a swelling-reducing ointment from the drawer: "Sister Xu, I'll help you apply it."

"I can do it myself. Just wipe it casually."

Xu Wanxia sniffed, took the ointment herself, dipped some of it with a cotton swab and applied it on her face.

Although it was just a light touch, she frowned in pain.

Yun Ning felt very sympathetic when she saw Xu Wanxia’s swollen face.

She knew that Xu Wanxia was a very good woman, hardworking, virtuous, capable and good-tempered.

But such a good woman has to support a gangster who is idle, uneducated, and even commits domestic violence for no reason!

This is so unfair.

Yun Ning couldn't help but persuade her, "Sister Xu, you've waited for Wu Zhong for so many years, and he did this right after he got out of prison. Are you sure you still want to be with him?"

Xu Wanxia paused, and the tears that she had been holding back could no longer be suppressed and flowed out from her eyes.

She choked up and said, "But what can I do? When I was a child, my father forced me to marry him for the dowry. After I got married, I finally saved some money, but Wu Zhong took it all away and spent it on wine and women. I thought he would settle down after I had a child, but who knew he would end up in jail!"

"In order to support the child and his mother, I have set up stalls and sold fruits in the past few years. I was chased by the urban management officers all over the street. I worked in all kinds of ways to save up this little capital and opened a small restaurant near the school. I finally waited for him to be released from prison. I thought he would reform and live a good life. I didn't expect that he would still be like this! Yun Ning, why is my life so miserable?!"

Yun Ning paused, and finally asked the question: "Have you ever thought about divorce?"

Xu Wanxia raised her tear-stained face: "Why didn't I think about it! But, whenever I mentioned divorce, Wu Zhong said he would kill me and my family! He wouldn't even let the children go! Don't think he's just being tough, this beast has been in jail, he really dares to do it! There have been many cases in social news, some men dared to take kitchen knives and hack their wives to death in front of the court!"

She seemed frightened, and as she spoke, she began to accept her fate, "Forget it, as long as I endure it, I can always get by."

Yun Ning knew that the difficulties Xu Wanxia had just mentioned were all realities.

She thought for a moment and then said, "Then you can leave here and go to a place where Wu Zhong can't find you."

“It’s easier said than done.”

Xu Wanxia smiled bitterly. "Although the world is big, there is nowhere I can go. My parents in my mother's family have my younger brother and never care about my life or death. My child is so old and has already gone to primary school in the local area. How can I solve the problem of his going to school when I have no money or power? Besides, if I go somewhere else, I will have to start my fast food restaurant from scratch, and I have no confidence that I can do it better."

Xu Wanxia lowered her head, looking at her hands that were stained with various cracks by the smoke, and sighed, "I am just a middle-aged woman struggling at the bottom of society. I have no education, no skills, and I am old. I am not like the rich ladies on TV who go abroad to relax when they are unhappy or go to high-end shopping malls to buy things. When I am unhappy, I can only shed tears secretly. I dare not even drink because I have to get up early at night to prepare for tomorrow's business."

She wiped her tears, regained her normal expression and said, "Tomorrow, my mother-in-law will bring the children to the store to help. With her watching, maybe Wu Zhong will be able to restrain himself a little. Yun Ning, you have been with me for so long, it's hard work. Go back and rest, you still have classes tomorrow."

Yun Ning looked at Xu Wanxia's miserable and helpless expression, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Wu Zhong is an adult, and it didn't happen overnight for him to become like this.

Moreover, it may also be related to his family education.

Sister Xu felt that her mother-in-law's arrival was a life-saving straw.

But who knows, will this life-saving straw become the last straw that breaks her back?

The most important thing is that it is unknown what Sister Xu’s son will look like after being raised by her mother-in-law for such a long time.

Worried about Xu Wanxia, Yun Ning returned home depressed.

Morning of the 2nd day.

After breakfast, she went to the library to write a script.

This part was written very smoothly today. Yun Ning did not stop writing all day except for eating.

By the evening, everyone in the library had left, but she was still writing.

Suddenly, a very clear voice came from the front: "Classmate, aren't you going to have dinner yet?"

Yun Ning raised her head and saw a handsome male college student smiling at her across the table.

He has flaxen hair, wears black-framed glasses, has extremely fair skin, is dressed casually, and has a sincere smile on his face.

Yun Ning blinked and said, "Are you asking me?"

"Ah."

The boy leaned forward slightly. "Actually, I noticed you a few days ago. I found that you were hanging out in the library every day. Are you preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam as a senior?"

Yun Ning didn't want to talk too much to people she didn't know, even if the first impression was good.

She raised her lips and smiled, but did not answer.

The boy looked at the reference book for writing scripts next to Yun Ning, his eyes lit up, and he took the initiative to say: "This is Robert McKee's "Story", a must-read classic for screenwriters all over the world. Are you planning to take a postgraduate entrance examination in literary screenwriting?"

"That's it."

Yun Ning answered ambiguously.

The boy's eyes lit up even more, and he introduced himself: "My name is Chu Zheyuan, and I'm also preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination for this major."

Hearing that the boy was majoring in screenwriting, Yun Ning became interested in chatting with him.

Although I write scripts, I am not a professional in this field.

It's also nice to chat with a professional college student like Chu Zheyuan.

So, the two added each other on WeChat.

After chatting for a while, Yun Ning looked at the time and found that the part-time job was up.

She quickly said to Chu Zheyuan: "Sorry, I'm in a hurry and have to leave first."

Chu Zheyuan looked at the time and smiled embarrassedly: "I accidentally chatted for so long, actually I should go, let's go out together."

"OK,"

Yun Ning nodded and walked out of the library side by side with Chu Zheyuan.

When he just came out, Chu Zheyuan seemed to remember something and said to Yun Ning: "Wait a moment."

Yun Ning was surprised: "What's wrong?"

"Come right away."

Chu Zheyuan didn't answer and ran away.

When I came back, I had two cups of milk tea in my hands.

Chu Zheyuan picked up one of the cups, inserted a straw, and took a sip.

He handed the other cup to Yun Ning and said, "I saw you pursed your lips just now, you must be thirsty."

"Thank you!"

Yun Ning didn't expect Chu Zheyuan to be so considerate, and she had a good impression of him.

But the two had only known each other for less than an hour, and she was too embarrassed to accept something from someone else, so she politely declined, "Sorry, my throat has been a little inflamed recently, so I can't drink sweets. I'll treat you next time."

"That's it, okay then."

Chu Zheyuan was stunned for a moment, and had to put the milk tea back into his schoolbag, "Drink it next time."

"Ah."

Yun Ning waved at him and said, "I have to go now. See you next time."

"Bye-Bye."

Chu Zheyuan sipped his milk tea and watched Yun Ning leave.

After she left, the boy took out the cup of milk tea from his schoolbag and walked into the garden as if he was familiar with the place.

The garden in early spring still bears traces of winter.

Except for the evergreen holly, the rest is a desolate and yellow color.

Chu Zheyuan squatted down and called out softly: "Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."

The next second, a kitten jumped out from the holly bush.

It seemed to know Chu Zheyuan. It meowed and rubbed his trouser leg affectionately.

Chu Zheyuan smiled slightly, tore open the milk tea and poured it on the ground.

The kitten smelled the fragrance, ran over and licked it with its tongue.

however……

In less than ten seconds, the kitten, which was full of life just now, suddenly had its limbs stiff and fell to the ground.

The man who had a gentle smile on his face just now now looked gloomy and dark.
