Chapter 185 Drinking with Xu Damao
"Brother Yuzhu, do you know? Xu Damao is divorced!"
When Liu Xiuxiu heard the gossip today, she showed a surprised expression on her face, her eyes widened, and she seemed to find the news unbelievable. Now that she saw He Yuzhu coming back, she couldn't help but come forward and share the gossip with He Yuzhu.
He Yuzhu was also stunned when he heard this, but then he pretended to have just learned about it, frowned and said: "I only knew about it when you said that Damao was divorced. I don't know anything else. I'll go see Damao after dinner."
He Yushui asked curiously, "Silly brother, is it true that Lou Xiao'e abandoned Xu Damao?" There was a hint of gossip on her face, and she was obviously very interested in this topic.
He Yuzhu shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either. Seeing this, He Yushui sighed with disappointment and said, "Hey, I thought you knew, but it turns out you don't know as much as I do." There was a hint of ridicule and disappointment in her tone, and it was obvious that her curiosity was not satisfied.
Liu Xiuxiu felt a little uncomfortable watching He Yushui's reaction. Although she knew that He Yushui was just teasing He Yuzhu, she still didn't want to say anything more on this topic.
So, she calmly changed the subject and said, "By the way, Yushui, you said last time that you wanted to invite your friend to your home. When do you plan to come?"
He Yushui was a carefree person and didn't notice that Liu Xiuxiu was deliberately changing the subject. She quickly started talking to Liu Xiuxiu about Yu Haitang's visit.
......
"Da Mao, are you okay?" He Yuzhu walked into Xu Damao's room and looked at him, feeling a little worried. He imagined that Xu Damao might be heartbroken because his wife and children were gone, but the scene in front of him surprised him.
Xu Damao was sitting at the table, eating happily and taking a sip of wine from time to time. He didn't seem to be affected too much.
When Xu Damao heard He Yuzhu's voice, he raised his head and a happy smile appeared on his face. He quickly called He Yuzhu: "Come on, Shazhu, you are here just in time, let's have a drink together." As he said this, he raised the wine glass in his hand.
He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao and his worries were slightly relieved. He walked over and sat down, looking at Xu Damao and said, "I was afraid that you would be sad, but you seem to be in a good mood."
Xu Damao chuckled and said, "Ezi and I considered it carefully before getting divorced. In this day and age, who can live without each other?" There was a hint of carefree and open-mindedness in his tone, as if he did not have too many regrets or nostalgia about the divorce.
He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao and couldn't help but admire his open-mindedness. But he couldn't help but ask, "What about the child? This is the child you have wanted for a long time. Are you willing to give him up?"
When Xu Damao heard He Yuzhu's question, the smile on his face gradually faded, replaced by a complicated expression. He put down the chopsticks in his hand and sighed softly, as if recalling and thinking.
After a moment, he raised his head and said with a hint of helplessness and regret in his eyes: "It's good for the child to stay with his mother in Hong Kong. She has money and will treat the child well." His voice was a little low, and every word seemed to carry heavy emotion.
He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao and couldn't help but feel sympathy. He knew that although Xu Damao looked open-minded on the surface, he must have been struggling and reluctant in his heart.
Xu Damao didn't want to continue this topic, he tried to change the subject to make himself look more relaxed. He patted He Yuzhu's shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, let's drink. Maybe you will have to attend my wedding again in a few days. Remember to be my chef then."
He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao and knew that he was using humor to cover up his emotions. He followed Xu Damao's words and said, "Okay, if you get married, I will not only prepare a banquet for you, but also give you a big red envelope."
Xu Damao's eyes lit up when he heard this. He smiled and said jokingly, "Then I'll remember this. If you don't give me a big enough red envelope, I won't agree."
The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere seemed to be a little more relaxed. He Yuzhu raised his glass and clinked it with Xu Damao, and then they drank together. After a few rounds of drinking, Xu Damao gradually became a little drunk, and He Yuzhu got up and helped him lie down on the bed.
Looking at Xu Damao lying drunk on the bed, He Yuzhu couldn't help but feel deeply moved. He patted Xu Damao's shoulder gently, and then quietly left the room.
