On the day of the divorce, Gu Qing only cared about giving her Bai Yueguang an umbrella. But what she didn't know was that I found her white moonlight with my own hands and sent it to her.
1
Midsummer.
The cicadas are singing and the sun is scorching.
I was holding the fuchsia divorce certificate in my hand, and I was a little unsure if this was a dream I had, or if I really divorced Gu Qing.
The weather was too hot, I was dizzy from the sun, and I raised my eyes in a trance, but I saw Gu Qing in a white dress holding an umbrella and striding towards Bai Heng, who was wearing a white shirt and looking at her with a smile on his face.
I let out a long sigh.
I was adopted by the Gu family at the age of five, met Gu Qing, and married Gu Qing at the age of twenty under the matchmaking of Mr. Gu.
Now I'm twenty-five years old, and I'm free again.
At this time, Gu Qing had already walked in front of Bai Heng, took out a handkerchief from his pocket with a cherished expression on his face, and carefully wiped away the sweat droplets that did not exist on his forehead.
Gu Qing and I have known each other for twenty years, but Gu Qing has never shown such an expression to me.
The hum of the motor came from a distance, and a red and somewhat dazzling convertible car drifted and stopped at the door of the Civil Affairs Bureau, and the movement was so loud that it was difficult not to notice it.
I looked closely, and I knew the young man in the convertible.
It was Gu Qing's sister, Gu Yu.
Gu Yu is different from Gu Qing, she did not meddle in the Gu family's industry, but took the road of art. At first, the Gu family did not support Gu Yu, and Gu Yu's father even said that if Gu Yu questioned and did not engage in business, her financial resources would be cut off.
But Gu Yu was stubborn, so he moved out of Gu's house on the same day and devoted himself to painting her.
At that time, I was her brother-in-law, and I helped her a few times.
Gu Qing's voice pulled me out of my memories: "On such a hot day, how can you drive a convertible? Also, I have my own car, so I don't need you to pick it up." ”
Gu Qing and her Bai Yueguang interlocked their fingers, Bai Heng was obviously more ashamed than Gu Qing, he struggled, but was gently comforted by Gu Qing.
"Baby, I've divorced him. ”
There was a fine pain at the tip of my heart, but I couldn't show it at all.
Gu Yu took off his sunglasses and smiled arrogantly: "Sister, don't be too narcissistic, I'm here to pick up Brother Gu Chi." ”
Gu Yu has called me Brother Gu Chi since I was a child, even if I married Gu Qing, I insisted on not changing my words, but this time I saved the effort of changing my words.
Gu Qing was disgraced, and her face was a little ugly.
"He's not your brother-in-law anymore, and we just signed an agreement last night, and he has nothing to do with the Gu family after the divorce. ”
Gu Yu played with the sunglasses in his hand, and looked at Gu Qing arrogantly with a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes: "It seems that my sister is really old and confused, when I was going out to paint, my father also signed an agreement with me, and the Gu family's penny has nothing to do with me." The two of us who have nothing to do with the Gu family are leaving now, please let you and the gentleman next to you let go. ”
Gu Qing's face was pale, but she still pulled her Bai Yueguang to take a step back.
Somehow, I looked at Gu Qing's deflated appearance, and I actually wanted to laugh a little.
Gu Yu got out of the car, opened the car door for me attentively, and even made a very gentlemanly gesture: "Get in the car, Brother Gu Chi!"
Gu Qing's eyes stared at me and Gu Yu, as if she wanted to make two holes in us.
I wasn't in the mood to stay here longer, so I had to get into Gu Yu's car for the time being, and wait until I was away from Gu Qing to make plans.

"Hahaha Brother Gu Chi, did you see my sister's face just now?
Gu Yu is arrogant by nature, and she has always liked to work against her sister, and when she came to pick me up today, she probably came to anger Gu Qing.
"Let me get out of the car at the intersection ahead. ”
Gu Yu looked back at me strangely: "I came to pick you up today, so you let me take you at two intersections?"
She looked frank and swaying, but it seemed that I was a little childish.
Gu Yu kicked the accelerator again: "I know you're in a bad mood today, it's okay, let me make you happy." ”
She threw me a box and opened it to reveal a brand new pair of sunglasses.
"Put it on, I bought it for you. ”
Having said that, I can't shirk it anymore.
Gu Yu turned the car up to speed, his ears were whistling with the sound of the wind, and his heart was beating fast as if he was about to jump out of his heart.
But I don't know why, those fine and dense sad emotions seem to be floating in the wind that I can't grasp.
Gu Yu took me around the suburbs, and my mood was almost recovered.
Gu Yu lay on the steering wheel, turned his head to look at me, and his eyes were shining: "Are you happy?"
I looked at her puppy-like expression and couldn't help but want to laugh: "Okay, send me to the company, I still have to go to the resignation handover." ”
Gu Yu raised his eyebrows: "What company do you go to, you have to leave your job, what are you doing so diligently? Have fun first and then take care of these messy things." ”
I grabbed my seatbelt with some trepidation: "Do you want to take me a drag race?"
"No, I'm going to take you to something else. ”
Gu Yu brought me to Disney.
I clutched Xingdelu's headband in my hand with a smile and a smile: "Why did you think of bringing me here?"
Gu Yu took the headband in my hand, handed me a Mickey-headed ice cream, and then helped me bring the headband, and even thoughtfully helped me cut my hair: "Because you have never been a child in the Gu family." Now that you've finally left the Gu family, shouldn't you be a good child?"
Her words were so reasonable, she didn't seem to feel anything wrong at all, the expression on her face was too serious, not like she was pitying me, but really felt that I should be a good child.
I couldn't help laughing and nodded approvingly: "Yes, you're right, our Gu Yu children are really smart and transparent." ”
The little bully, who was still ashamed just now, blushed at this time: "Brother Gu Chi, I am no longer a child. ”
Gu Yu, who is no longer a child, dragged me to various projects, and also dragged me to watch the float parade.
We almost went crazy all day.
When I was in the Gu family, in order not to be hated by the Gu family, I was sensible and obedient, I didn't ask for anything, I just wanted to stay in the Gu family and not be kicked out.
Growing up, I never asked for a single piece of clothing I wanted, and I didn't have a toy of my own.
Not to mention coming to the playground.
I looked at the fireworks in the sky, and my eyes were hot.
It really was my first time as a child, on the day I divorced at the age of twenty-five.
Gu Yu stood beside me, as if he didn't realize my embarrassment at all, and only handed me a piece of paper when the fireworks were over: "You just ate ice cream and got your hands dirty, right? ”
I took the paper and wiped away my tears, only to realize that I was not actually crying for Gu Qing, but crying for myself.

"Brother Gu Chi, I've been a kid for a day, do you want to do something with me that adults do?"
I turned my head to look at her, and she seemed to think of something, blushing and waving her hand: "No, no, I'm talking about whether or not to go to drink with me! My friend has opened a new bar!"
I looked at her and couldn't help but laugh: "What's the hurry, I haven't said anything yet." ”
Gu Yu scratched her hair embarrassedly: "Eh, isn't this afraid that you will misunderstand me as my sister, isn't it a good thing." ”
I glanced at her: "Don't mention Gu Qing, we're still friends." ”
As I turned, I heard her whisper.
"Who wants to be friends with you. ”
……
Gu Yu's friend opened a home bar, and there was a small stage in the bar, on which there were guitars, drums and other musical instruments.
I think there will be a band to perform on a regular basis.
Gu Yu pulled me to sit at the bar: "Do you want to listen to songs?"
"You can still sing?"
"How not. Gu Yu's face was full of seriousness, "What if you don't have any talent and starve to death?"
With that, she jumped on the stage and sang with her guitar in her arms.
"A silent vacuum world
Your appearance is like music
The universe has come full circle for our day
It began to be staged after a period of ups and downs
I'm so happy to be able to see you from the clouds
I may be more than myself
Although the world is filled with boredom
I still have an old record player
I'll give you all the songs you like
……」
The tone of the BossaNova style is cheerful and bright. She looked at me with her guitar playing, and my heart was beating a beat.
"Gu Chi, what are you doing here?"
I raised my head and met Gu Qing's puzzled eyes, and Bai Heng was still beside her.
I went crazy with Gu Yu for a day, and when I saw Gu Qing again at this time, I didn't feel a little heartache at all.
I looked at the beautiful liquid in the glass in front of me: "Drink." ”
Gu Qing's expression was a little unsightly: "Gu Chi, we are divorced, please don't follow me anymore." ”
Stalking her?
I looked up at her in surprise, "You think I'm following you?"
Gu Qing didn't answer my words, but just said to herself: "I know that you have always liked me since you came to the Gu family, but I don't like an empty shell where he does whatever others say, now that I have found the love of my life, please respect yourself." ”
I looked at Gu Qing's good-looking face and suddenly felt funny.
When I was adopted by the Gu family, Mr. Gu liked me very much, and this liking continued until I grew up, and he did not hesitate to let Gu Qing and me be tied together with a marriage contract in order to keep me in the Gu family.
After twenty years of getting along, I am not completely without feelings for Gu Qing. On the contrary, I like her a lot.
So when Old Man Gu proposed that I marry her, I happily agreed, but I forgot to ask Gu Qing if she was willing.
After getting married, Gu Qing always refused to let me touch her, I always thought that I was not doing well, so I went to ask Mr. Gu what kind of boy she liked, but Gu Qing bumped into her.
I still remember what she said when she mocked me.
"I don't like a man who pleases me according to other people's words. ”
“姐，这么巧，你也来喝酒啊。 ”
Gu Yu didn't know when she stepped off the stage, and she stood in front of me, blocking Gu Qing's unfriendly gaze.
Gu Qing's face became even more ugly for a moment: "Are you all together all day?"
Gu Yu tilted his head and didn't let him go by half an inch: "What, is there any problem?"
"Gu Chi, I originally thought you liked me, it turned out that as long as it was the Gu family, you could. ”

Gu Yu gave Gu Qing a slap.
I looked at Gu Qing and suddenly felt that the past twenty years had been in vain, and I had never really known her.
I pulled the angry Gu Yu away and stood in front of Gu Qing, who was covering his face and looking gloomy: "Gu Qing, I hope you can speak and act according to your conscience, I haven't been sorry for you for a second over the years, but how do you do it? In the Gu family, you treated me as air, humiliated me in front of your grandfather, and later found the white moonlight in your mouth, so I was even more reluctant to go home, and even divorced me before my grandfather's first seven days were out." ”
"Gu Qing, I owe the Gu family for raising me, but I don't owe you anything in the past five years. ”
Gu Qing's face changed: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean that just now......"
was defeated by Gu Qing, and I was too lazy to play anymore.
"Xiaoyu, you go home early, I'll go back first. ”
Gu Yu turned around and grabbed my arm: "It's too late, I'll send you back." ”
Gu Qing's voice was mixed with anger that couldn't be suppressed: "Gu Yu, you go back home for me!"
Gu Yutou didn't reply: "Sister, take some medicine to prevent Alzheimer's disease, I haven't been a child for a long time, and I haven't been back to Gu's house for a long time." ”
……
On the way, Gu Yu had been carefully observing my face, and I wanted to laugh a little when I saw it: "Just ask whatever you want." ”
"Brother Gu Chi, I didn't expect my sister to appear there, are you okay?"
I blinked, and didn't seem to feel too bad.
It's probably because I've had too many sad days in the past five years, so I'm immune.
Seeing that I didn't speak, Gu Yu hesitated for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to speak: "Brother Gu Chi, my sister just doesn't have long eyes, a good man like you, she doesn't know how to cherish it, I ......"
I looked back curiously, "What's wrong with you?"
Gu Yu gritted his teeth and parked against the side of the road, his face full of seriousness.
I suddenly felt that something was wrong, and sure enough, in the next second, Gu Yu spoke: "I like you." ”
My head buzzed.
Not to mention that Gu Yu is two years younger than me, as far as my identity as an ex-brother-in-law, this confession is embarrassing and makes me want to flee immediately.
"Xiaoyu, don't be angry, I ......"
Gu Yu hurriedly got closer to me: "Brother Gu Chi...... I am not angry, I like you, I liked you a long time ago. ”
I fled home that night.
I don't know how to face Gu Yu's confession, there are too many insurmountable gaps between me and her, not to mention, I have always only treated her as a sister.
When I got home, Gu Yu had already called me more than 30 times, all of which were hung up by me without exception, and in the end, she should have been sure that I really wouldn't answer her calls, so she could only send me a pitiful WeChat: "Brother Gu Chi, I'm just worried about your safety, remember to tell me when you get home." ”
I told her that she was safe, and she never spoke again.
After all, it's a younger sister who grew up together, and it's not good to delete the block because of this.
It's just that I don't have a way to face her at the moment.
"Chi! Have you completed the resignation procedures! Come to work at our company quickly! I'll get the office ready for you!"
I looked at the information on the screen and couldn't help but hook my lips. This is my friend Li Xiang, who I met in college, and when I graduated, he invited me to start a business with him, but unfortunately I had to refuse him in order to repay the kindness of the Gu family and go to work in the Gu Group.
And now I am divorced from Gu Qing, and I have broken off my relationship with the Gu family at her request. I can finally live the life I want, according to my heart.

The next day, I finally had time to go to Gu's to handle the resignation.
After the handover, he turned around and bumped into a figure that shouldn't be there.
"Gu Chi, if you pleaded with me at the beginning, you don't have to leave the Gu family now. ”
I looked up at Gu Qing amusedly.
On the one hand, she signed an agreement with me, saying that the Gu family would have nothing to do with me in the future, and on the other hand, she said that if I pleaded, she could be gracious to let me stay in the Gu family.
It's really a big lady, everything is just up to your own liking.
"Thank you Mr. Gu for your care, no need. ”
Gu Qing didn't know what illness she was making, so she stepped forward: "Gu Chi, you are spoiled by your grandfather, you don't know how difficult the employment environment outside is, with your ability, even if you have a history of working in Gu's in your resume, you can't stay in another company." ”
I sneered and looked up at her: "Mr. Gu, I remember that I should have graduated from the same university as you, and I was admitted by myself, so it stands to reason that there is no difference between me and you, how can Mr. Gu deny me so categorically?"
Gu Qing opened her mouth and didn't say anything, but her eyes clearly didn't believe that I could do it.
I didn't bother to talk nonsense with her anymore, so I hugged something and bypassed her, and then threw Gu's work card into the trash.
……
"Gu Chi, I'm looking forward to you!"
Li Xiang gave me a big hug as soon as he saw me: "Congratulations, a new life is beckoning to you!"
I hugged him back: "Yes, a new life without Gu Qing is beckoning to me." ”
He dragged me to his boss's chair: "How's it going, have you seen your office?
My eyes circled around his office: "I still prefer your ......"
Before I could finish speaking, Li Xiang waved his big hand very generously: "Then I will give it to you!"
"Don't, don't!" I cried and laughed, "I'm joking! I like it, and the floor-to-ceiling windows that I fantasized about when I was a student." ”
Li Xiang raised his eyebrows: "That's not it, it's completely designed to your liking." ”
"Boss Xu is so good to me, all I can do is repay Boss Xu as a cow and a horse!"
Li Xiang approached me with a smile: "No, you have been bought by me, and you will work for me for the rest of your life!"
We talked and laughed for a while, and then Li Xiang talked about my future work arrangements.
"The company's projects will go through your hands in the future, I have seen your ability, and I am really relieved of you...... But you don't care about this project lately, I'll do it myself. ”
"Why?"
She handed me the documents on the desk: "Because the opponent is your old club Gu, I'm afraid you will be unhappy." ”
I glanced at the documents, it was a government tender, because I was not at the high level of the Gu family, and this project did not go through my hands.
I took a closer look at it, and I already had a number in my heart: "It's okay, let me come, after all, knowing yourself and knowing your opponent can make you invincible." ”
Li Xiang looked at me with admiration in his eyes: "It's so good, it deserves to be the man I fancied! Gu Qing is really blind, let go of such a good husband and employee as you." ”
I smiled, didn't speak, and focused all on the project.

Lee's is a newly grown company, which means that all employees rely on their strength to reach high positions.
I think I'm the first leader to be airborne, not to mention that in my resume, Gu's work content is not so good-looking.
The people under me are not convinced, and it is common for me to fight alone, and this is my first battle, for the sake of the Li family, but also for myself.
After half a month of continuous rotation, I finally took a plan that I made almost alone, and entered the venue with Li Xiang and another colleague who usually looked down on me the most.
Li sent me a message without a trace: "Why did you bring Lin Zisu here? I remember that he came to the office to sue me two days ago. 」
Lin Zisu was the person who was most likely to sit in the position of vice president before I came, so he was the least cooperative with my work after I came.
"Only when he sees my abilities can he truly believe in me. 」
Li Xiang gave me a thumbs up.
The Li family came the earliest, followed by the Gu family.
It's just that I didn't expect that the person from the Gu family was actually Gu Qing, and her secretary was Bai Heng.
Her gaze lingered on me for a moment, then quickly looked away.
I saw the disdain and dislike, and the imperative of the project.
Lin Zisu sat next to me, looked at Gu Qing and sneered: "I heard that Mr. Xu used to have a husband and wife relationship with Gu's Gu, and after the divorce, Gu's thighs couldn't be hugged, so he came to Li's to grab jobs with us little employees?"
I ignored him, looking at the materials in my hand, he also felt bored, and finally paid attention to the materials after snorting coldly.
The Gu family has a longer history than the Li family and has strong assets, and they have never taken the Li family seriously.
In fact, I wasn't sure I could win today's battle, but I didn't expect Gu Qing to hand over this project to Bai Heng.
Gu Shi showed first, although Bai Heng was calm, but there were still many deficiencies in the content of the project, Gu Qing really wanted to exercise Bai Heng, and she should have made little modifications to this project on the basis of Bai Heng's doing.
When Bai Heng got off the field, Gu Qing looked like he was winning.
Yes, she never believed in my abilities.
I cleared my throat and went on stage to present my project plan.
I have this self-confidence, because my ability is far above Bai Heng.
Half an hour later, Gu Qing's face changed. Gu never gave me a chance, how could she know that since I was a student, my grades have not been inferior to her, and my work ability has not been inferior to her?
The item ended up in Lee's pocket.
By the time I stepped down, Lin Zisu had lost the appearance he had when he came.
He looked at me with a serious gaze: "Mr. Xu, I apologize to you for my previous improper words and deeds." ”
I hooked the corners of my lips: "It's okay, just work hard in the future." ”
I know I'm standing at Lee's.
After it was over, Xu Chun and Lin Zisu left first, and I went to the bathroom.
When I came out to wash my hands, I bumped into Gu Qing, who came with me at some point.
She looked at me with a complicated gaze: "Gu Chi, I really underestimated you." ”
I concentrated on washing my hands, and I didn't bother to raise my head: "Mr. Gu is really joking, when has Mr. Gu ever had me in his eyes?"
"You...... Don't rush to go out for a while, let's talk. ”
I turned off the faucet and turned to look at Gu Qing: "What, Mr. Gu is still thinking about asking me to beg you, okay, shall I stay in Gu's?"

Gu Qing's face was not good-looking.
I know Gu Qing too well, she is a complete profit-supremacist, I used to be in her eyes
