Chapter 104 Divorce
Hu Mengdie's face flushed, and she seemed as if her soul had been sucked out of her. She staggered against the iron fence like a rubber man.

She felt that she was wearing too many clothes and couldn't breathe, and she felt that she was naked and being watched. Her face was burning, but her heart was cold.

It was as if she had been slapped in the face, making her dizzy and seeing stars. It was as if the world was spinning, and she couldn't tell east from west.

After suffocating for a while, she finally covered her face and burst into tears.

She leaned against the iron fence, then collapsed to the ground, crying so hard. Li Zhuangsheng's words were like a cruel punishment, and she was powerless and could only let herself be whipped.

She thought she would be admitted to the university this time, but she was suddenly told that she was not even qualified to take the exam. She cried so hard that she was out of breath, her breathing became more and more rapid, she grabbed the ground with both hands, and retched repeatedly.

Li Zhuangsheng wanted to help her up, but was not accepted at all. After shouting out his anger in his heart, Li Zhuangsheng quickly returned to his original state. Seeing the consequences caused by his loss of control, he slapped himself in the face in regret.

So he really didn't want to say it, he knew this would be the result.

It feels so good to say it out loud, and finally ask that question: Do you love me, or are you reluctant to let a bootlicker treat you well?
But when he saw Hu Mengdie crying until she vomited, he felt heartbroken and regretful: Are you still a man for making her so embarrassed and cry?

"Don't cry, I'm sorry, you didn't do anything wrong... It's all because of me. I'm a wretched, dirty, stinky loser, I'm a bottom man, I'm a stinky man... It's ridiculous to think like this, it's all my fault. You're not wrong, who hasn't had a few relationships nowadays? Who can understand such an abstract concept as love and not love?"

"You shouldn't be sad because of me. I'm just a useless otaku who loves to fantasize. No one can understand the thoughts of someone like me, and there is no value in understanding them. You are really not wrong at all, but I am a psychopath with low emotional intelligence, and I am also dark, hypocritical, selfish and cowardly."

"You and I are different. You are sunny, generous, and have high emotional intelligence. You are also a super beautiful girl... You are perfect, so we can't be together. You are the moon in the sky, and I am just a stinky rat in the gutter. We are not suitable."

Li Zhuangsheng squatted beside Hu Mengdie and gently patted her back. Hu Mengdie cried and vomited bile.

After a long time, Hu Mengdie finally calmed down with the help of Li Zhuangsheng. With tears in her eyes, she looked at Li Zhuangsheng silently.

Li Zhuangsheng ignored her and just took out a tissue to gently wipe the dirt off Hu Mengdie's mouth, then cleaned her palms without any disgust.

"Really? Is it not possible?" Hu Mengdie's eyes were filled with tears.

"You've gotten stuck in a dead end." Li Zhuangsheng still didn't look at Hu Mengdie. He was afraid that if he looked at her too much, he would feel distressed and soft-hearted. He just lowered his head to wipe her fingers. "In fact, as long as you calm down, you will find that Li Zhuangsheng is nothing. There are thousands of men in the world who are much better than him. There are many who are more gentle and considerate, more humorous, more mentally normal, and who will not make you cry so sadly."

Hu Mengdie looked up at the starry sky, her eyes had lost their luster, leaving only emptiness: "So... that's what you think. You have a really cruel heart."

Li Zhuangsheng bit his lip and remained silent.

"I'm home……"

Hu Mengdie stood up with difficulty, her face as pale as paper.

"I send you."

Li Zhuangsheng hurried forward to support her and felt that her body was limp.

"Just pretend you didn't hear what I said today. Don't think all men are as crazy as me. I'm a freak. My parents say I've become stupid from reading too much... Also, I won't tell anyone about us. I promise."

Li Zhuangsheng said this on the way to sending Hu Mengdie home.

"We are high school students now, and the most important thing is to study... I was a little behind in the beginning, and now I have to study harder... Actually, I don't have the heart to think about love affairs, not for the time being. Well, don't worry, at least I will never date anyone else before you find your partner."

Li Zhuangsheng said again.

Hu Mengdie bit her lips until they turned white.

"Don't be angry and say you won't have a boyfriend either... I'll give you five years at most. If you don't have a boyfriend, I'll also find one!"

Li Zhuangsheng tried half-jokingly to liven up the atmosphere, but unfortunately he failed.

The two walked into the community and came to the downstairs of Hu Mengdie's apartment. Li Zhuangsheng looked back at this road. He had walked this road with Hu Mengdie many times before, and he always sent her home like this. This should be the last time, he thought sadly.

"Go upstairs," said Li Zhuangsheng.

"My legs are weak, please hold me." said Hu Mengdie.

Li Zhuangsheng hesitated, but then he heard her say, "When we got married, you carried me down. Now if you carry me up again, we will be divorced."

After hesitating for a moment, Li Zhuangsheng picked up Hu Mengdie and carried her horizontally, climbing the stairs step by step.

"As soon as you heard that you were going to get a divorce, you gained strength." Hu Mengdie gently put her arms around Li Zhuangsheng's arms.

Li Zhuangsheng pretended not to hear. Hu Mengdie's hair fell into his neck, making him feel itchy and sweet. He could only grit his teeth and bear it.

The same corridor, the same person in the arms.

Li Zhuangsheng had expressed to Hu Mengdie his wish to wear Hanfu when getting married, and Hu Mengdie agreed without much thought. Li Zhuangsheng was very touched. Because he wanted to wear the most authentic Tang-style wedding dress, he once faced considerable pressure from his family.

According to the Tang Dynasty system, women's wedding dress should be a long-sleeved blue dress. But ordinary people either wear a white wedding dress or a red wedding dress, so who would wear blue clothes?
Li Zhuangsheng's parents did not approve of his "heretical" idea, but fortunately Hu Mengdie always stood by him and finally helped Li Zhuangsheng realize his long-cherished wish.

That day, when he picked up Hu Mengdie, who was wearing a green wedding dress and had a rosy face, his heart was pounding. He was touched that she was willing to play with him, and he was also moved by her beauty in the wedding dress. He wished that this moment could last forever.

She is really nice... Li Zhuangsheng couldn't help but feel shaken.

She was really nice, but he couldn't let her go.

Don’t delay them, Li Zhuangsheng thought again.

"Today is also number two, what a coincidence." Hu Mengdie sighed softly, "You took me away that day, and now you take me back again."

Li Zhuangsheng was stunned and suddenly remembered that they got married on October 2nd.

He felt more and more panicked and guilty. Damn it, how could I have forgotten this day!
"I'm sorry..." Li Zhuangsheng murmured uneasily.

"This is my fate."

Unconsciously, the two of them reached the fourth floor, and Li Zhuangsheng gently put Hu Mengdie down. At this moment, a trace of reluctance and sadness suddenly surged in his heart, but he immediately suppressed it.

He quickly calmed himself down and stammered, "Then I'll leave..."

Hu Mengdie turned around, took out the key and gently opened the door: "Well, congratulations on your divorce, I wish you a happy divorce."

Li Zhuangsheng lowered his head: "I'm sorry..."

"In fact, I am the mouse, and you are the sun that brings me warmth. Stop looking down on yourself. You are the sun that I, Hu Mengdie, have certified."

Hu Mengdie walked into the house, turned her head to look at Li Zhuangsheng, then quickly turned her head away and gently closed the door.

……

"It's okay, it's okay..." Hu Mengdie walked into the bedroom lightly, staring at Li Zhuangsheng's departing back from the windowsill, muttering to herself, "Anyway, there is no certificate now, this is called retreating to advance, there is also a cooling-off period for divorce..."

However, tears blurred her vision again.
