It's the end of the year.

It became common for Xu Tang to work overtime, leaving early and coming back late. When he came back, he still had a lot of information and drawings in his hands. He threw them on the table and started working again. Gu Zisheng was still waiting for her downstairs every morning, no matter how much time he had.

Lin Ruoruo would personally send her back in the evening. This made Lin Ruoruo feel a lot more at ease. Seeing the increasingly obvious look of a little woman on Xu Tang's face, Lin Ruoruo just pursed her lips and was happy in her heart. Gu Zisheng and her were making good progress.

It's just that Lin Ruoruo has never been to Xu Tang's company again.

After she made breakfast every morning and sent Xu Tang away, she cleaned the house from top to bottom, went to the supermarket to buy some fruits and vegetables, and filled the refrigerator. At noon, she took the bus to the orphanage to spend time with the children.

When playing and tutoring, the children were very happy because she came so frequently, but they would look at her in confusion and ask: "Sister Ruoruo, why didn't that brother come last time?" When I first heard this,

She was stunned for a few moments when the questions were asked. Then she was able to answer them freely: "Brother is busy with work!" or "Wouldn't it be nice for sister Ruoruo to accompany you?"

Taking the bus is the most time-consuming thing. Often when I get home, the sun has already started to set.

Full and busy.

That's fine, just wrap up the wound with time and slowly heal it. She has never heard anything about that person again.

But today is different than usual.

Xu Tang went out with her front legs, and she also changed her clothes and went out with her back legs.

The weather was still cold, so she wore a white scarf, a bright goose-yellow woolen coat, picked out a pair of boots and put them on. After looking in the mirror with satisfaction, Lin Ruoruo just walked out and was blown back by the cold wind.

"It's so cold." She muttered, walked into the room, took out a white woolen hat and put it on. The two furry balls on the hat were dangling on her shoulders, making it even more playful.

The Chinese New Year is only about ten days away, and Lin Ruoruo is going out this time to go to a place she is extremely familiar with - the Mid-Levels Villa.

The villa that had imprisoned her body and mind for five years.

Last time, she only brought back some of her intimate clothes. This time, she wanted to clear out all her belongings there. What Lin Ruoruo wanted to do was to use the last few days of this year to end everything this year.

In the coming year, she will be a brand new Lin Ruoruo.

Although Lu Yanheng gave her this villa, she didn't want to live there. Staying there for a second longer would be torture.

Let it be empty there, just like her desolate heart.

Standing outside the iron gate, she couldn't help but look at the balcony on the second floor. She had sat there many nights before, quietly waiting for his return.

She exhaled a white breath, looked away, stretched her hand out of her coat pocket, and pressed the doorbell next to the iron door.

Sister-in-law Li should still be here, as Lu Yanheng said last time.

Sure enough, Sister-in-law Li leaned out half of her body and asked, "Who is it?"

Ever since Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu divorced, no outsiders have come here. Alas, it sounds strange. They are such a good couple and the wife is such a good-natured person. How could they end up like this?

Normally, she, a servant, could see that the wife and husband had never had a single quarrel, or even said a harsh word, so why did they get divorced?

"Sister-in-law Li, it's me, Ruoruo."

Ruoruo? Sister-in-law Li thought for two seconds before patting her head and running to open the door. Mrs. Lu is back!

"Madam, you're finally back!" Sister-in-law Li opened the door quickly, "I thought... it would be fine if you came back!"

Lin Ruoruo walked in with a smile on her face: "Yeah."

She didn't want to say anything more.

If Ruoruo walked straight into the house, everything was clean and new, but it felt a little cold and empty.

"Sister-in-law Li, please find me a big cardboard box. I can use it."

"Okay, ma'am."

"Don't call me madam," Lin Ruoruo turned around and smiled, "I have divorced Mr. Lu."

Taking the carton from Sister-in-law Li, she lowered her eyebrows and said thank you.

Seeing Lin Ruoruo's back walking upstairs, Mrs. Li sighed repeatedly.

When she held the doorknob, her hand trembled slightly. It must be that the metal doorknob was too cold, she thought, opened the door and walked in.

The bright red color is flamboyant but not coquettish.

There was no dust on the solid wood floor, and the bed was neatly laid. The books she usually read were placed at the bedside, and she opened a few pages at will. The curtains were slightly opened, and the light came in through the thick curtains.

A beam of light is cast in a somewhat dark room.

Lin Ruoruo did not turn on the lights or open the curtains.

She silently put the carton at her feet, half-knelt there, opened the drawer, and slowly took out her things one by one.

She tried her best to organize things without looking away. She had been fully mentally prepared from the time she planned to come here.

When she took out the pen and put it into the carton, her other hand inadvertently crossed the ground and was scratched by a sharp object.

Lin Ruoruo lowered her head in confusion, reached into the bottom of the bed, and fumbled out the thing that scratched her hand just now.

First, my eyes were dazzled by the dazzling flashing light.

A diamond-encrusted brooch lay quietly in the palm of her hand. It was a gift from Lu Yanheng.

She held the brooch and cried fiercely that day. In the end, she didn't remember where it went from her hand. She accidentally picked it up today and realized that it had been left here that day.

Looking at the diamond-encrusted brooch, Lin Ruoruo stuffed it into her pocket with an expressionless expression, and then continued to clean up her things.

It wasn't too much, and it was more than half full. Lin Ruoruo walked out holding the carton and closed the door.

There was a click on the door, and she stood for two seconds, then went downstairs.

Sister-in-law Li had been waiting downstairs. Watching her come down with the carton, she asked: "Tai...where is Miss Lin going?"

"go home."

"Ah? This...this...you live here!"

Lin Ruoruo lifted the carton up: "It used to be, but it's not now."

"That……"

"Sister-in-law Li, you'd better ask Mr. Lu for advice on what to do with this place, whether it should be empty or sold." She lowered her head and looked at the carton, "All my things have been taken away, and it won't affect anything here.

of."

Sister-in-law Li rubbed her hands anxiously and her voice became much faster: "Mr. Lu said that this house is yours."

She shook her head: "I'm leaving first."

Sister-in-law Li wanted to say something else, but in the end she just sighed, hesitated, and sent her to the door: "What's wrong with living here? Although she and Mr. Lu have divorced, he won't come here.

.If you are worried that you will be embarrassed when you meet Mr. Lu, this worry is completely unnecessary."

"That's not the case." Lin Ruoruo just smiled and shook her head, "Sister-in-law Li, please go back."

How can others understand her thoughts? I'm afraid, even she herself doesn't know what she is thinking.

Holding the cardboard box in her arms, Lin Ruoruo walked slowly down the mountain alone. There were no taxis or buses that could take her back halfway up the mountainside where there were many villas.

She walked this section of the mountain road for half an hour. It would have been fine if she walked alone, but she was holding a big cardboard box in her hand. When she walked down the mountain, she was a little out of breath, her face was a little red, and her back felt wet.

, sweating a little.

The cars that whizzed past her along the way were either Ferraris or Mercedes-Benz Rolls-Royces, which showed how rich and powerful the people living here were. Naturally, they were disdainful of her as a hiker.

Gu.

Lin Ruoruo didn't care. She hugged her arms until they were sore and didn't stop to rest. She remembered that when she was in college, there was a time when she was delivering takeout at a fast food restaurant and she often had to unload boxes filled with fried chicken from the car.

The box is much heavier than this.

She just thought about this while encouraging herself to go on slowly.

While sitting in the taxi, she looked at the cardboard box next to her and smiled with relief.

Finally got it all back.

After returning home and putting everything away, Lin Ruoruo suddenly remembered the brooch in her pocket.

She took it out and looked at the sparkling diamond carefully against the sky. It was so beautiful. With her current status, she could no longer use such jewelry.

Throw it away? Like the heroines in the TV series? Lin Ruoruo raised her lips in self-mockery. She was just an ordinary person. Faced with such high-end decorations, studded with diamonds, she didn't have the stomach to throw them away like this.

After thinking about it, she put on her hat and scarf again, holding the brooch in her hand and went out.

In the jewelry store, the clerks in suits and professional smiles are always serving the customers in front of them respectfully. There is a dazzling array of products.

Jewelry is even more dazzling under the light. No wonder women love diamonds. Come here and take a look, no one will be tempted.

"welcome."

As soon as Lin Ruoruo walked in, a clerk came up to her: "Hello, how can I serve you?"

She pinched the brooch in her hand and was about to speak when another sweet "Welcome" came from behind, interrupting her words.

"If you can come with me to look at rings today, I'll have to make a good selection." A woman's voice sounded, a bit familiar, "You have to give me a reference."

"good."

Lin Ruoruo froze, not daring to move forward, and didn't know whether to turn her head. The clerk's smile also stopped: "Miss?"

"Um...oh..." She reluctantly responded, "You are here..."

What is the purchase price for diamonds here? I have a diamond brooch that I haven’t worn yet, how much is it worth?

Her lines should have been like this.

Lu Yanheng held Zhang Zixin's arm and walked past her. All her words were stuck in Lu's throat and no sound came out.

The store manager came forward in person and asked in a familiar manner: "Mr. Lu, you are here today. The store just had a new model a few days ago. Do you and Miss Zhang want to take a look?"

Forget it, I didn't expect to meet them here. Lin Ruoruo smiled apologetically at the clerk and was about to turn around and leave. Seeing this situation, she might as well change her greetings to another place.
