"Hey, Xu Le, it's time to eat!"
The sister-in-law yelled from the staircase.
The scream woke Zhou Ze up from his trance.
The bedroom was still the same bedroom.
The bed was still the same bed.
The wedding photo on the wall was still the same.
Zhou Ze rubbed his eyes and turned around. He pushed the bedroom door open and went downstairs.
There were three dishes and a soup on the dining table.
A celery stir-fried beef, a Kung Pao Chicken, a cabbage stir-fried vermicelli, and a bowl of vegetable tofu soup.
Doctor Lin was scooping rice from the table. The sister-in-law was already sitting on the chair impatiently.
"Some people are so heartless. Their wife is cooking in the kitchen, yet they're taking it easy up there."
The sister-in-law swayed her body as she ate.
Zhou Ze sat down too. Doctor Lin placed the chopsticks in Zhou Ze's hand.
"Come home and eat in the future."
Doctor Lin suddenly said.
She was like a gentle wife, exhorting her husband, as if everything was normal and normal, like the spring breeze and rain.
"Mm?" The sister-in-law's eyes widened.
Xu Le was coming back?
Did her sister ask him to come back?
Zhou Ze did not answer.
The sister-in-law could not hold back any longer. She kicked Zhou Ze under the table.
You idiot, why aren't you answering?
My sister already asked you to come back for dinner!
She's willing to cook for you.
Why aren't you taking the initiative?
"We'll see," Zhou Ze said perfunctorily.
"Is it okay to stay in that neighborhood?"
Doctor Lin asked.
The neighborhood was obviously the neighborhood that Zhou Ze lived in in his previous life.
It was obvious that Doctor Lin knew that Zhou Ze did not get along well with her parents if he stayed at her house. Therefore, she was willing to go to that place with Zhou Ze.
One place.
A place where she and he were alone.
The chopsticks in Zhou Ze's hand trembled slightly. He could sense that the woman had yet to overcome the psychological barrier she mentioned, but she was trying her best to look forward.
Since life was already a mess, he might as well continue to live it, and live a better life.
Many people had a strong desire for their lives, but a truly refined life did not exist. It was just like how some star-studded female stars might have sat in a bar when they were young.
If one were to take a closer look, any perfect thing would have its flaws at some point in time.
Grasping the present was the true meaning of life.
Zhou Ze hesitated for a moment.
There were some questions that he did not ask, since Doctor Lin had asked his sister-in-law to call him down. It was not her doing it herself. However, he could not deny that he was a little afraid of asking the question.
Once they completely shed all pretenses,
Originally, he thought that it was a gift from the heavens to compensate him.
He removed all disguises.
It might become so much that he couldn't bear to look straight at it.
Zhou Ze admitted that, like most men, he was fond of beautiful women, but this time, he was a little scared.
In his mind, it was hard for him to imagine living with Doctor Lin in his own home and eating together at the dining table.
This feeling.
It was like a pet cat being pampered by its owner. All of its actions, including resistance, would become more like a spoiled child.
"There's no need."
Zhou ze replied.
Then, he picked up a mouthful of food and put it into his mouth. With a serious expression, he swallowed it with great difficulty.
"Is it not nice?" Doctor Lin asked.
She saw that Zhou Ze was in pain when he was eating.
"Hey, Xu Le, you're putting on airs now, sir!"
Her sister-in-law couldn't stand it anymore.
In her opinion, Xu Le was bullying her sister.
Putting down his chopsticks, Zhou Ze decided not to force himself to eat. He turned to Doctor Lin and said,
"Come with me. Let's talk about something."
Doctor Lin nodded and put down his chopsticks.
"Hey, what can't you say in front of me!"
Her sister-in-law said angrily. She felt like she had become a big light bulb, but she did not realize that she had become a big light bulb.
Zhou Ze went upstairs, and Doctor Lin followed him.
The two of them stood at the bedroom door on the second floor. Zhou Ze did not push the door open. He did not want to see the wedding photo again. He had a feeling that Xu Le was looking at him in the wedding photo.
As for Xu Le …
Actually, with himself …
There was no difference.
Everyone was a tool.
One was a high-level tool, and the other was a low-level tool.
There was no need to laugh at the pot calling the kettle black.
"Speak." Doctor Lin looked at Zhou Ze and lowered his head slightly.
Zhou Ze hesitated for a long time. The words were on the tip of his tongue, but he did not know how to say them.
Was it a question?
Was it a request for confirmation?
Was it a reprimand?
Was it a scolding?
Or was it a mutual confession?
Actually, at the end of the day, the matter had already been done.
The people who deserved to die were all dead.
The body that was thrown into the air was also entered by him.
The matter had already come to an end.
"Let's end it here."
Zhou Ze said.
After saying this, Zhou Ze stared at the woman in front of him.
It was as if the gentle and tall woman in front of him would tear off all pretense in the next moment and press him against the wall, mocking him for overestimating himself.
You're just my doll.
My favorite toy.
In order to get you.
I've spent so much effort.
As a toy.
Do you have the right to say it's over?
A person's imagination.
It was the scariest instinct.
There were too many psychological hints in this, just like the last time Zhou Ze was at Wang Ke's house.
What kind of meat did Wang Ke eat?
Who knew?
Even if he had clearly analyzed the psychological hint with you, was he being honest or trying to cover it up?
It was hard to explain.
Just like the scene in front of Zhou Ze.
After hearing Zhou Ze's words …
Doctor Lin only smiled and nodded. Zhou Ze saw that her eyes were a little red, as if her heart was broken. She spent a lot of time to adjust her emotions and comfort herself.
At the dinner table just now, she decided to throw away her previous burden and try to get along with Zhou Ze, but Zhou Ze rejected her. Then, she heard Zhou Ze's real words of breaking up.
She lost her legal husband, even if her husband was still alive. She lost the person she liked because the person she liked said that he did not want to continue this relationship.
She was like a small boat, constantly bobbing up and down in the waves.
Listening to her parents' words, listening to her family's words, listening to Zhou Ze's words, listening to her mentor's words, she lived strong, and lived very strong.
Fate played a trick on her.
There were some things that she had been persistent about, pursued, and overcome, but in the end, she would still miss them.
"I'll send the divorce agreement tomorrow. Do you agree?" Zhou Ze looked at Doctor Lin.
It was like a tourist looking at a tiger in the zoo through the fence.
It was a very complicated emotion.
As long as she did not reveal her true colors.
This complicated emotion would continue in Zhou Ze's heart.
After all,
It was a society that valued looks.
And she was so good-looking.
Right?
When he slapped Xu Dachuan, his face was full of wrinkles, so he did not feel any pressure.
But you asked Zhou Ze to take something and slap Doctor Lin.
He really could not bear to do it.
"Sure, let's get a divorce." Doctor Lin raised her head and looked at Zhou Ze. "You can also start your new life."
Did you agree?
Did you really agree?
Did you really agree?
Zhou Ze looked at Doctor Lin.
He was afraid that Doctor Lin would turn hostile in the next moment and attack him. He told himself that a toy should have the awareness of a toy!
However, Doctor Lin's reaction was so natural, so natural that Zhou Ze felt like it was unreal.
She was the director.
At the same time.
Was she also an actress?
"Xu Le is dead," Zhou Ze said. "Does it have anything to do with you?"
She had to ask what she had to ask.
Doctor Lin nodded.
From her point of view, fate seemed to be a game to play tricks on the Moors. It was her obsession that caused this tragedy.
"Actually, all of this might be my fault. I was too whimsical and let fate play such a joke on me.
You're right.
It's time for the joke to end. "
"Sister, are you crying?"
Her sister-in-law walked up the stairs and saw her sister crying.
"It's fine. The dust got into my eyes."
Doctor Lin did not want her sister to see this scene. She pushed open the bedroom door and walked into the bedroom. Her sister-in-law glared at Zhou Ze and followed her sister into the bedroom.
Zhou Ze let out a long sigh.
At this moment,
He felt a little relaxed.
It was as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders.
She admitted it.
She also agreed that it was over.
If it was over, then it was over.
He could not return to his previous life. The people who deserved to die were all dead, except for this woman.
But if he asked himself …
If he really gave her a chance to kill her, would he really be able to do it?
And was the purpose of killing her just to vent his anger?
He walked into the bathroom.
Zhou Ze scooped up a handful of water and splashed it on his face.
The coolness made his mind clearer.
It was over.
It was over.
It was finally over.
When he returned to the bookstore later, he would no longer care about the troubles brought to him by the identity of "Xu Le" and prepare to live his own life.
To be a ghost errand boy.
To be a proper doctor.
In his previous life, he was able to climb up step by step as a doctor.
In this life,
It was nothing more than a change of environment.
But it was the same workplace.
He raised his head.
Zhou Ze saw someone standing behind him in the mirror.
It was his sister-in-law.
"You made my sister cry. She cried very sadly."
"Things here are very complicated. It's not something a child like you can understand."
Zhou Ze picked up a towel and wiped his face.
But at this moment …
Zhou Ze was stunned.
He stopped all of his movements.
He saw his sister-in-law in the mirror.
Her head was bent to the left at an exaggerated angle. It was impossible for a normal person to do it.
Her face was tightly pressed against her left shoulder. Her entire face was tilted at a perfect ninety-degree angle, but her body was still standing straight.
"I know my sister likes you.
I know my sister doesn't like Xu Le.
I know my sister doesn't want my parents to be sad and doesn't want to break up this marriage.
I want my sister to be happy.
I want Xu Le to die.
I want you to die and come back.
I want you to become Xu Le.
I did all of this. My sister should have been happy.
You.
I actually made her sad again.
