Chapter 357: 357. Cried

Xia Yumo looked at her smiling face with heartache, reached out and rubbed her head, "You succeeded, at the age of eighteen, you got an MBA from Princeton and a Master’s degree from the medical school, but most importantly, you met me."

Qiao Xu laughed at her last sentence, then thought of something, the smile on her face faded slightly, with a touch of melancholy, "Yeah, eighteen, what a wonderful age."

At eighteen, she returned to the country happily, waiting to get engaged to him, but what she got instead was his divorce.

Xia Yumo saw Qiao Xu suddenly fall silent, the sadness on her face was not intense, but it was heartbreaking to see.

Qiao Xu raised her hand, wiped her face forcefully, sighed, and said: "Even though we were bound by a marriage contract, we were not familiar with each other and didn’t understand each other. When he came to divorce, I thought he had someone he liked. Even if I didn’t want to divorce back then, I never spoke up, afraid that he would despise me even more."

Her voice gradually became hoarse, with a faint hint of loneliness.

"If that’s the case, why did he agree to marry you?"

Xia Yumo wondered. Although she found Big Pig’s Trotter a bit annoying, she didn’t think he was so unprincipled as to divorce and then turn around and marry Xuxu.

Qiao Xu seemed to recall something, her smile became even more bitter, "In the second year of the divorce, Qiao’s encountered a crisis."

Xia Yumo nodded. She had heard Xuxu mention this. After Xuxu married Lu Moqing, Lu’s invested in Qiao’s, and the crisis naturally passed.

However, Qiao Xu pointed at herself with a mysterious smile, "I was the one who caused it."

Xia Yumo was stunned, then widened her eyes in disbelief, looking at Qiao Xu, "Are you crazy?!"

Back then, the crisis of Qiao’s was actually caused by Xuxu herself!

Qiao Xu laughed, "Yeah, at that time, wasn’t I crazy?"

She took a deep breath and recounted the past events in a very calm tone, like an outsider telling a story.

"I thought, divorce was no big deal, but that year, whenever I saw news related to Lu Moqing, I felt that I couldn’t live without him, Mo Mo, do you understand? I really couldn’t live without him."

She emphasized the last half of the sentence heavily.

Looking back, she was simply beyond redemption back then.

Xia Yumo opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but couldn’t find a single word in reply.

Back then, when she had just broken up with Gu Junhang, she had also tasted the feeling of being worse than death.

"So, I took a gamble, I plunged Qiao’s into a crisis, and gambled one more time. I asked Lu Moqing to marry me and help Qiao’s through the crisis. I didn’t really have any hope, I just thought... "

At this point, she paused and her voice choked up a bit.

"I should try one last time, just one more time. If he refuses, then it’s fine, at least I tried, right?"

Her gaze was somewhat bewildered, and she didn’t know if she was right or wrong at that time.

"In the end, when I had no hope at all, he agreed."

She laughed, but tears started to swirl in her eyes, she lowered her head and whispered softly, "He actually agreed."

"After our marriage, he treated me as transparent person. Lu Xintong told me that it was Grandma who forced him to marry me, but I didn’t care. I thought, if I tried once and he agreed to marry me, then if I tried again, maybe he could love me. So I kept trying and trying, all of a sudden I was trying for three years, but this time, I found that my efforts were useless, as he’s going to drive me out of Lu family."

By this point, Qiao Xu’s tears could no longer be held back as they streamed down her face.
