ffed, still remembering Shu Tinglan's furious voice that time. She vented all her disgust for him in her voice. Even many years later, he would still vividly remember the feeling of self-doubt stemmin...Yes, back then, the mother and daughter duo of Wen Jian swaggered onto her father's funeral like they owned the place, demanding to be recognized as his family. It was like a hurricane, lifting her and her mother high into the air before suddenly dropping them both, leaving them stranded without any solid ground beneath their feet. 。
And now they're back, though a new hurricane blew them apart. But this hurricane also finally brought her and her mother's floating mind and body to land, and the wounds slowly began to heal. 。The long-suppressed gloom in her heart finally dissipated, and she now felt light and at ease both physically and mentally. 。All three of them had drunk a bit, slightly tipsy. They looked at each other, and as they gazed, they couldn't help but smile. Then, Cheng Chen suddenly burst into tears, crying very sadly. 。Shutinglan and Lin Zhifei looked at each other in surprise, they had never seen the strong Cheng Chen cry like this before. 。"What's wrong" They asked her, but she didn't respond. She picked up her phone and WeChat, speaking into Lu Kuo's voice message: "Lu Kuo, you're such a jerk, a real jerk." 。After berating him, she tossed her phone onto the table for Shu Tinglan and Lin Zihe to see. 。
Below her voice on the dialog box, there's a bright red "Failed to Send" dot, followed by the message:
"The other party has enabled friend verification." 。Cheng Chen was removed from Lu Kuo's friend list
Shu Tinglan and Lin Zhixuan were both shocked, Lu Kuo actually deleted Cheng Chen
Although Lu Kuo is a cheerful person, talking to people like humans and ghosts like ghosts, he is indeed deeply affectionate and devoted. Since high school, he has been chasing Cheng Chen, and after having WeChat, he even reports his itinerary every day without fail, plus a good night greeting before bed 。He has continuously sent messages for at least 5 years, regardless of whether Cheng Chen replied or not, he has never missed a day. 。Such a person, actually deleted Cheng Chen's WeChat. 。Lin Zhiyao's first reaction was; "He's moved on and found a new love"
Cheng Chen suddenly sobered up, stopped crying, and looked at Lin Zhiyao with an unpleasant expression. 。"So what are you looking at me for I told you long ago, if you really like him, don't go on acting this way, driving him away, giving him up to other girls, and then you'll be happy"Cheng Chen was angry after hearing this; "Does he only have so much patience for my love He acts so deeply in love with me on one hand, but turns around and holds the hand of another little girl on the other..." 。"Isn't he patient enough with you This has been going on for how many years The war is over." 。Although Lin Zhixuan didn't participate in their high school life, he has been well-informed about everything that happened to them since he met Shu Tinglan in university. 。"I didn't say I'd agree to it only after my career had developed more, did I Don't you know what kind of family he comes from How could I possibly stand beside him if I wasn't excellent" This was the first time Cheng Chen revealed her true feelings. 。Prior to this, she never admitted it. 。"Then tell him clearly, what's the use of crying like a ghost in front of me and Shushu" 。“Lin Zhicun is really hard to understand her way of thinking.” 。Shu Tinglan sat on the side, having seemingly grasped the gist of what had transpired. 。It's been a month since Lu Kuo sent Cheng Chen a goodnight message;
It seems Lu Kuo has finally decided to stop clinging to a hopeless relationship and has chosen a new love;
Cheng Chen likes Lu Kuo. 。Seeing Cheng Chen cry, Shu Tinglan felt distressed. Since they loved each other, they shouldn't miss out like this. 。So she picked up her phone and called Lu Kuo for the first time. 。
The phone rang once before it was answered.
"Lu Kuo, where are you"The phone was very quiet, so quiet that you could hear the other person's breathing. 。Tinglan, I am Zhuo Yu'an. Lu Kuo is drunk and asleep. 。Shu Tinglan was stunned, and only then did she remember that Zhu YUAN had indeed said when they got off work in the evening that Lu Kuo had invited him to dinner. 。"Are you looking for him I can give him a message." 。Zuo Yu'an looked at Lu Kuo, who was so drunk that he couldn't even tell who was in front of him, and felt a headache. 。"It's fine, I'll call him another day." 。Shutinglan wanted to hang up the phone. 。"Ting Lan.." Zhu Yu'an hurriedly called out her name. 。
Shu Tinglan held onto her phone without answering, waiting for him to continue. 。"Is Cheng Chen with you"
"Hmm..." 。Shu Tinglan glanced at Cheng Chen beside him and answered. 。"Can we make plans to take her out to dinner tomorrow Lu Kuo's been causing a ruckus all night, and it would be better to clear things up face-to-face." 。If it had been before, Shu Tinglan would have definitely refused. This was Cheng Chen's private matter, and she wouldn't interfere. But just now, Cheng Chen expressed his feelings, at least giving the two of them a chance. 。。He hung up the phone after that. 。Cheng Chen had come to Senzhou specifically to see Shu Tinglan. Seeing that she was fine, he planned to return to Qining the next day. 。Tomorrow is the weekend, no need to rush back to Qining. 。Shū Tínglan stopped ... 。"Work is very busy" 。Cheng Chen is a typical workaholic. She works as a planner at a real estate company. Thanks to her tireless efforts, she has become the planning director at a young age. 。There's a new development about to launch, and she's really busy with it. 。Then stay with me for another day, since you're already here. 。"What are you keeping company with, you're even busier than I am. Didn't you pull another all-nighter last night""I fell behind on a lot of work the other day and need to catch up." 。You can just rest well at my place today, and we'll have dinner together tonight. It's not too late to go back to Qining tomorrow. 。As he spoke, Shu Tinglan quickly changed into his work clothes and headed to the office. 。Instead of wearing a conventional professional suit, she opted for a dress with a beige trench coat over it, embodying the look of a quintessential city woman. 。He is handsome and looks good in anything he wears. He just walked away after a gust of wind closed the door. 。
Cheng Chen rolled her eyes. She knew what Shu Tinglan was thinking, didn't she He wanted to meet Lu Ku in the evening Then let him meet. 。But she couldn't stand to just stay idle all day, so after a bit of primping, she hailed a cab and went straight to Zhuo Yuan Technology. 。Shutinglan, that silly child, ran too fast and got on the subway in a flash. We couldn't even stop him. 。With no traffic along the way, Cheng Chen arrived at Zhuoyuan Technology a few minutes earlier than Shu Tinglan. He was in Wen Jian's office having a good conversation. 。Wen Jian looked at her: "You've changed a lot, I almost didn't recognize you." 。They are all from Qining High School. Back then, when Lu Kuo pursued Cheng Chen, he was very flamboyant and it was common knowledge. 。Lu Kuo is Zhuo Yu'an's good friend, and Wen Jian naturally pays special attention to Cheng Chen, even intending to get closer. 。Cheng Chen laughed out loud: “You’re all grown up now” 。You have changed a lot, becoming confident, intelligent, independent, and a successful modern woman. You are an example for us to learn from. 。These insincere words, Cheng Chen spoke them without blushing or feeling any guilt, very smoothly and effortlessly. 。Wen Jian also smiled: "How do you have time to come to Senzhou The last time I had a meal with Lu Kuo, he said you were very busy and didn't even have time for him" 。“Isn't this Shu Tinglan and Zhuo Yu'an breaking up because they had a fight I came to see them.” 。These two people, one more troublesome than the other. 。You know, Zhuo Yúan has had a crush on Shu Tinglan since high school. Tsk tsk, he's really good at keeping his feelings hidden. He loves her dearly, but he just doesn't dare to say it. 。After so many years of twists and turns, we are finally together again, and I've started making trouble again. 。Cheng Chen spoke calmly and collectedly, but with a steady, precise, and ruthless manner, hitting the nail on the head. His words were like daggers, enough to kill a man without paying a cent. 。Indeed, Wen Jian's expression changed slightly: "Is that so They haven't been together for all these years, which means they weren't destined to be." 。Just like you and Lu Kuo 。Come on, let's hurt each other. 。You're right, but at least you were loved with care, that's better than unrequited love, isn't it 。Cheng Chen spoke with the air of an old friend, his tone sincere and earnest. 。Wen Jian sneered inwardly and changed the subject: "I heard from Lu Kuo that you're now doing work related to real estate planning"
"He's such a bigmouth! If you want to buy a house, you can come to me, I'll give you an internal discount price" 。Cheng Chen casually handed Wen Jian the promotional brochure for the new development. 。This is her professional bearing, no matter where she goes, she always keeps the latest brochure in her bag. 。"Just my luck, I was planning on buying a place in Qīníng." 。"Wen Jian turned over the pamphlet and said," 。"Are you really buying it Are you planning to settle down in China in the future"
"For my grandma and uncle..." 。"In a simple explanation, even if she settled in China, she would only invest in properties in Senzhou and would not return to Qining." 。"That's a coincidence, our building is perfect for you, it targets high-end groups like yours. It has garden villas, elevator access, high-end finishes, and I'll have the marketing department set aside the best unit in a prime location for you." 。“Cheng Chen got really excited talking about work, he didn't wait for Wen Jian to reply, and directly asked the head of the marketing department to add Wen Jian on WeChat.” 。"I'll have them send you the floor plan and related information first. I'll let you know when it opens." 。"Look, this is Cheng Chen. He came to Zhuo Yuan Technology early in the morning, not only to disgust you, but also to make money from you. Wen Jian felt as uncomfortable as swallowing a fly." 。I just want to ask you, has Shan Gu been diligent recently Updating 8,000 words every day.Bureau. Your household registration book is with me."Shutinglan's heart was in turmoil, she didn't respond and walked forward."Listen to the waves..." He called out again behind him.She stopped and lo...
