Chapter 122 is over

  The officer at the counter was a woman in her 40s, who looked up and gazed at the young couple about to divorce. She slightly furrowed her brow and said: "Have you two thought this through? Once I stamp it, you'll no longer be husband and wife. Don't you want to reconsider?"

  Zhang Ziheng and Zheng Jie exchanged a glance, Zhang Ziheng looked away awkwardly without saying a word. Zheng Jie smiled slightly with some sadness, "We've already thought it through, you can just hurry up."

  "Hey, Zhang Ziheng, have you thought it through? Young man, I'm not saying this to criticize you, but your wife is so beautiful, how can you bear to divorce her? And you, miss, isn't the problem with you? This young man seems quite decent to me, much better than those idle and arrogant kids. Won't you reconsider?"

  This didn't need to be said, but now that it has been said, Zheng Jie couldn't help but burst into tears again, lowering her head to wipe away her tears. Seeing the girl cry, Auntie understood in her heart, after all, she had been working at this job for over 20 years and had seen all sorts of people. Turning around to look at Zhang Ziheng, she said: "Young man, I can tell that you two don't actually want to get a divorce, right? If it's just because of an occasional argument, then it's not worth it. Marriage is like this, there will always be some ups and downs, but if you endure it for a bit, it'll pass. What do you think? I think you two should go back home. Your current situation isn't suitable for divorce." As she spoke, she handed the marriage certificate back to them.

  Zhang Ziheng bit his lip, and his eyes were also a little moist. After calming down, he said: "Auntie, you don't have to worry about so much, just help us with the procedures."

  Zheng Jie originally cried softly, but the more she cried, the louder her voice became. Zhang Zi Heng's heart felt uncomfortable as he watched her cry. Even the aunt who was watching couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart. "Young man, look at your wife," she said. "She doesn't want to leave you, how can you be so heartless? Look at her now...can you really bear it?" "It's not..." Zhang Zi Heng didn't know what to say, and it was no wonder - his situation was just too complicated, impossible to explain clearly.

  After a while, Zheng Jie wiped away her tears and said with red eyes: "Auntie, I'm fine. Really, nothing's wrong with me. You hurry up and cover it. Don't let the people outside wait anxiously."

  "Alas, the people who come here are not getting married, what's the hurry? Let them wait a while. Girl, listen to Auntie's words, Auntie has seen many people, like you two, Auntie has met before, actually you don't need to make a fuss about divorce, everything can be negotiated. Girl and young man, go back home. If I were to process your paperwork, I would shorten my lifespan."

  Zheng Jie shook her head and said, "Auntie, don't have any guilt in your heart. Actually, I couldn't get along with him a long time ago. He's lazy, doesn't love cleanliness, and can't even be woken up every morning. Moreover, he always smokes, which not only harms his health but also mine. So, to live a few more years, I must divorce him. Auntie, hurry up, I have something else to do later."

  A'gui looked at them again and said: "What? Have you two really thought it through? Don't you want to think about it some more?"

  "No, we've all thought about it, you cover it," said Zheng Jie.

  Aunt sighed, shook her head, and handled the formalities for them. The two people came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau. Wang Xue hurriedly went forward to greet them, asking: "How was it? Is it done?"

  Zhang Ziheng handed his divorce certificate to her, nodding without speaking. Wang Xue opened it and took a look, finally letting out a sigh of relief. She looked at Zheng Jie beside her, who was somewhat pale, thought for a moment, and said: "Thank you, thank you."

  Zheng Jie smiled weakly and shook her head, saying: "No need to thank me, he was yours from the start. You're right, I was too selfish and never considered him. Now that we're divorced, maybe it's not a bad thing after all."

  Zhang Ziheng looked at Zheng Jie, his heart filled with a mix of emotions - guilt, sadness, and a hint of reluctance. "Zheng Jie, I..."

  "Alright, you don't have to say anything else. Since we can't be husband and wife, we can still be friends, right? How about it? You won't refuse me, will you?" Zheng Jie smiled.

  "En, of course we won't, Zheng Jie. We will always be good friends, forever." Zhang Ziheng nodded and said.

  Zheng Jie glanced at Wang Xue, and after thinking for a moment, Wang Xue nodded. Zheng Jie smiled and said: "When you get married, can I be invited?"

  "Of course, definitely." Wang Xue smiled and said.

  Zheng Jie smiled and nodded, saying: "Uh, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first, bye."

  Zhang Ziheng and Wang Xue saw Zheng Jie off as she drove away, although a smile was on her face when she left, neither of them noticed the tears that streamed down her face as she drove.

  Everything has finally settled down, and everything is back to normal. After a few days of recuperation, Zhang Ziheng was finally able to be discharged from the hospital. Returning home with Wang Xue, Zhang Ziheng looked at the familiar surroundings in the house and felt warm inside. Lying on the bed, he closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.

  Wang Xue leaned on his body, looking at him and smiling happily: "What are you thinking? Fool?"

  "Who would have thought, after going around in circles, I'm back here again, the home of my youth. After experiencing so much, I suddenly feel a bit tired, and all I want to do is lie down like this, never getting up, taking a good rest."

  Wang Xue pouted and smiled: "Hmph, another family? It seems you have quite a few families outside."

  Zhang Ziheng sighed and said: "To be honest, the two weeks I spent with Zheng Jie were actually quite enjoyable."

  Wang Xue bit down on Zhang Zigu's chest and then lifted her head, saying: "Are you still angry with me? Are you looking for a fight?"

  Zhang Ziheng rubbed his chest and smiled wryly: "I said it felt pretty good, what are you doing? However" I really owe Zheng Jie an apology, if I can repay her in the next life. Then I'd rather...

  Wang Xue hastily covered his mouth and said, "No way, even if there's a next life, I'll still owe her. You're mine, for all eternity, you're mine. No matter who, no matter which lifetime, nobody can take you away from me."

  "Wow, you're so overbearing! With so many people chasing after you in their next life, I won't even have a chance to get in line!" Zhang Ziheng laughed.

  "That's right, you're mine too, in short. No one else can have you except me."

  Zhang Ziheng sighed and shook his head, saying: "Alas, I really don't know if it's because I owed you in my previous life. You've come to punish me this lifetime."

  "You're right, you owe me, so if you don't pay back what you owe, don't think about having a good life." Wang Xue said as she tightly hugged Zhang Ziheng, and Zhang Ziheng also tightly hugged her.

  Zhang Ziheng returned to his previous life. Only the relationship between him and Xu had become less ambiguous than before. Bai Yujie would come to find Zhang Ziheng whenever she had time, it seemed that she still wouldn't give up.

  It had been almost a month since Zhang Ziheng's leg injury had healed, and he was finally able to return to work. As he arrived at the company, he saw all those familiar faces. Suddenly, Zhang Ziheng felt like crying, realizing that seeing people he hadn't seen in a long time made him feel so close, it was just like seeing family members.

  When he saw Zi Bian's sister, Zhang Zi Heng couldn't help but hold her hand, grinning foolishly for a long time without letting go. Zi Bian looked at him with some embarrassment and said shyly: "Silly, what are you smiling about? Let go quickly, don't let others see."

  Zhang Ziheng burst out laughing and said: "Zi Bian Jie, long time no see, you've become even more beautiful. You're thinner, younger, and fairer."

  "Haha, you, when did you become so glib? It's really poor, but what you said is weirdly heartwarming. Looks like you're quite understanding of girls' hearts." Zi Shou laughed and said.

  "Look who's talking, I don't understand what you're saying."

  "You don't understand? Of course you do! Women love it when men tell them they're slim, young and fair-skinned. Are you pretending to be stupid?"

  "Huh? Really? Hehe, I really didn't know." Zhang Ziheng smiled foolishly.

  "Zi Heng, Zi Heng?" At this time, he heard someone calling out his name.

  Zhang Ziheng hastily turned his head and saw that it was his colleague Zhao Yu. "Ah, I'm here, what's up?"

  Zhao Yu ran over and said: "Zi Shu. There's someone outside looking for you, he's a policeman, he says he knows you. Zi Heng, is everything okay?"

  Police? Could it be Yu Xuan? Zhang Ziheng smiled and shook his head, saying nothing was wrong, then left. Upon going outside to take a look, it indeed was Yu Xuan, who now wore a police uniform, making him look even more handsome. However, from the look in his eyes, one could tell that he came with ill intentions today.

  "Yu Xuan? Haha, how did you know I work here? Looking for me with something?" Zhang Ziheng asked with a smile.

  Yu Xuan looked up and down at him and said coldly, "Is your leg better? Has it healed?"

  Zhang Ziheng smiled and nodded, saying: "Mm, it's all good now, take a look, basically walking is no problem."

  Yu Xuan nodded and said, "Come on, follow me." Yu Xuan led Zhang Ziheng to the staircase next to the elevator. It was now office hours, so there were almost no people around.

  Zhang Ziheng looked around and smiled: "Yuxuan, what are you doing? Why did you bring me here?"

  Yu Xuan took off his outer garment, removed his hat, and then suddenly went up and gave Zhang Ziheng a punch. Before Zhang Ziheng could react, he gave another punch, knocking Zhang Ziheng to the ground.

  Zhang Ziheng's mouth was broken, and two teeth on the left were also loose. He raised his head, looking at Yu Xuan in confusion, not understanding what was going on.

  "Do you know why I'm hitting you? Because you deserved it. Remember what I told you? If you dare to hurt Zheng Jie, I will definitely not let you off. Today, I'm not hitting you as a police officer, but as Zheng Jie's brother. Do you understand?" Yu Xuan said angrily.

  Zhang Ziheng was stunned for a moment, then said: "I know, I know I'm very sorry to Zheng Jie, and I didn't mean to. As for this, I have nothing to say. Yu Xuan, if you want to hit me, just go ahead." After finishing speaking, Zhang Ziheng closed his eyes, as if waiting for Yu Xuan to come and hit him.

  Yu Xuan gritted his teeth, crouched down and grabbed Zhang Ziheng's collar, raising his fist to hit him. Seeing Zhang Ziheng looking like he was waiting to be beaten, Yu Xuan angrily pushed him away, hummed, picked up his clothes and hat, and said: "Don't let me see you at the police station again." Then he turned around and left.

  Zhang Ziheng let out a sigh, his body went limp and he lay down on the ground, muttering to himself: "Yuxuan, why? Why didn't you hit me? Hit me. My heart would feel a little better if you did, why didn't you hit me?"
