C95 Let's Break up

Ou Jia Rui stopped me from continuing to contact Mason City. "Don't call her. She has already left. I don't think she will be working in B City anymore."

I was a little confused by Ou Jia Rui's words. "She did not do it on purpose. Being expelled is already too excessive. Why is it that she can't stay in this city anymore?"

"But objectively, her actions did bring me a lot of trouble. After so many years of deliberately hiding my home address, and trying my best to give you a peaceful life without being disturbed by the media, you're basically disrupted." She leaned against the railing of the corridor, as if she were talking about something of no importance.

"But she didn't do it on purpose. We're friends, and she wouldn't do this to hurt me for no reason at all. She doesn't even know who my husband is."

Ou Jia Rui sighed and walked closer to me. "Yao Yao, we don't know whether this Mason revealed our whereabouts intentionally or not, but we can't let down our guard. We can't rule out the possibility that she was planning to get close to you, right?"

I felt wronged. "But she was a good friend of mine, and you gave her the death sentence indiscriminately." At that time, I felt that this Ou Jia Rui was overbearing and cold, but after a long time, I lived a life similar to his. I gradually began to understand that at that time, he also had too many helplessness.

"Although you lack a friend like her, you still have me, Yaoyao." Ou Jia Rui's eyes were focused and her expression was gentle, but I wasn't touched at all. My heart was filled with grievance and unwillingness.

"But you're the only one who can make me live my life now, Ou Jia Rui. I'm a person, not a pet, maybe you have a little bit of good will towards me, but you can't just imprison me and turn me into your personal property. That's not fair to me."

Ou Jia Rui was a little stunned: "Why do you think that?"

"It's very simple, you can watch me being humiliated by Ou Jingyi or stand up for me, if you want me to stay at home I have to stay at home, if you want me to go to Ou Family to be your secretary I have to go to work, Ou Jia Rui, what is my authority now?" At that time, I forgot to read that every choice I made was the result of Ou Jia Rui's compromise with me.

After a while, he raised his head again and said with no expression on his face, "You're quite excited right now, we'll discuss this issue after you've calmed down. We'll go to school the day after tomorrow, remember to pack up everything you need to take with you tomorrow."

Before I could reply, Ou Jia Rui had already turned around and left. I was a little depressed and disappointed, but I temporarily didn't want to pay any attention to her.

Without Meishan accompanying me, I returned to my life with no one around except for Ou Jia Rui. Zhao Yuhao had recently been busy with the company's matters, so he wouldn't go to school at the start of the term. Originally, Mason and I had an appointment to go to B University when school started, so she could go to the alma mater to revisit the beauty of the past.

I packed all my luggage in a dejected manner, waiting to go to school. During this vacation, Ou Jingyi never came to find me for trouble. I didn't know that she was still scheming something, I only thought that she had finally given up.

Although O'Jia Rui personally sent me to school, because of the unhappy conversation between the two of us a day ago, our interactions throughout the journey were minimal. It was no different from the cold war between an ordinary couple.

During the Cold War, O'Jia Rui didn't forget to make an appointment with the Household Service Center to help me clean my unoccupied room for the summer. When we arrived at my apartment in B University, the cleaner that O'Jia Rui hired was also waiting for us there.

Although I closed all the doors and windows before I left, I could still feel the smell of dust on my face the moment I stepped through the door. I couldn't help but cough a few times.

"Come on, let's just leave our things at the door. Let's go out first." As it was the first day of school, the crowd in the school was very dense. I was a little unwilling to walk together with Ou Jia Rui as I was afraid that I would attract more gossip.

And as a public figure who was also the president of a large corporation, Ou Jia Rui acted very magnanimously: "What's there to be afraid of? Our relationship is legal, if we leave now, the rumors between you and Zhao Yuhao would be destroyed without anyone noticing. I don't know who is so imaginative that they would actually be able to think of someone like you, Zhao Yuhao."

When Ou Jia Rui mentioned Zhao Yuhao, I could clearly feel the sourness in her tone.

I was still preoccupied with the fact that Mason had been fired yesterday. Yesterday, I had been trying to get in touch with her in all kinds of ways: by phone, via WeChat, even by email. All I could think about was that Mason didn't want to contact me again because of the damage done to her.

Sensing my coldness, Ou Jia Rui also stopped speaking.

An hour later, he returned to his apartment, which had been cleaned up by the efficient cleaners.

"Let's see if I still have anything I need. It's almost autumn, when will I have time to buy you some items for the season change?" Every time I was sent to school, O'Jia Rui would change the order of these words, or change the expression to give me a new explanation.

After hesitating for a while, I finally said the words that had already been in my heart a few hundred times over the past few days. "Ou Jia Rui, actually, I've never understood what kind of relationship we have. They definitely aren't a couple, but they don't seem like friends either."

Ou Jia Rui seemed to have guessed what I was going to say next. She interrupted me and said, "We are husband and wife."

I nodded. "Yes, husband and wife, but these days I've been thinking, whether it's status, status, or innermost things like ideas, personality, the gap between us is obvious to all, and what is the meaning of a marriage without an emotional basis?"

Ou Jia Rui didn't answer my question. I think she really didn't know how to answer me.

I continued to say, "I'm very grateful for the care and care you've shown me over the years. I might not have known all my life, but this kind of life was never something I wanted. Whether it was being treated as a thorn in my side for no reason, or losing my friends due to my identity restrictions, I found it hard to accept."

"Are you still blaming me for Mason?"

"It's not your fault. I don't have the qualifications to blame you. Rather, after calming down, I even feel guilty for my actions. Regardless of whether or not my friends and I were intentionally doing it on purpose, it has caused you a certain amount of trouble. I know you have your own considerations, but I don't want to live like that. " I blurted out what I was thinking.

Ou Jia Rui's tone became even softer. "Alright, I promise you, I'll do my best to not let you be disturbed by the outside world and let you live a peaceful life, okay?"

I lowered my head and just shook my head. "You don't have such a duty. Your wife should be an astute and delicate woman. No one would say that she's an unsuitable woman if you took her out. No matter who it is, it shouldn't be mine."

I was a very contradictory person. On the one hand, I didn't agree with Ou Jia Rui punishing my friend for being exposed. This was the embodiment of my selfishness and ego, but I didn't consider Ou Jia Rui's difficulties. On the other hand, I also felt that I wasn't really a good candidate for the other half of an excellent person like Ojaru. This was proof of my inferiority.

"So?" After a long while, Ou Jia Rui finally said that.

I took a deep breath as if I had made a great decision. Then, I mustered my courage and said, "So, Ou Jia Rui, shall we break up?"

"I don't agree." I felt that his tone and expression were exceptionally familiar, as if every time he rejected a proposal from a department at a meeting of the company's department managers, it was both light and unquestionable.

I felt a little weak. "Why?"

"I'll explain the reason to you later. Since it's a breakup, then it's a matter of two people. If I don't agree, then we can't break up. It's called abandoning you unilaterally." Ou Jia Rui used a very serious tone to say these lies.

I felt rather helpless. "How about we split up for a while and try. This is good for both of us."

Ou Jia Rui was still stubborn. "No, I'll go to the company to take care of some work first. I'll come see you right away when I have time. Don't let your thoughts run wild all day, I don't think taking care of you will trouble me. I'll be leaving first."

Not so much a farewell as an escape from the situation and the atmosphere. Without looking back, O'Jia Rui left, but my heart was still heavy. After mulling over it for a long time, the decision that I had just made was rejected by Ou Jia Rui in such a quick manner. I was a little frustrated and also a little conflicted.

The road at the peak of the morning was very congested. While waiting for the red light to change, Ou Jia Rui called him at the end of the day, "I'm not going to the company today. If there's anything else, I'll just leave it to the secretariat." With that said, he hung up the phone, turned the car around, and drove back to the B University.

Just as I was packing up my things, I saw Ou Jia Rui appear at the door again not long after leaving. "Why did you come back?" Did you forget to bring something? "

"No, I just want to stay here for a few days, okay?" O'Jia Rui leaned against my front door like a child, looking completely different from the usual refined and courteous business elite.
