aintained his previous position, his forehead pressed against hers, his nose touching hers, and he whispered in a voice barely audible.“Tinglan, I've never been a good person, so don't push me."At lea...He carried the lunch box into the temporary conference room where she was already seated. He sat across from her. It had been many years since he’d last eaten this kind of construction site lunch, but as soon as he lifted the lid, that greasy, monotonous smell hit him—familiar and still making his stomach turn.

So what is he doing He's looking for trouble, he should have gone to Yanjin with that kid earlier.

Looking across at Han Li, she was replying to messages on her phone while slowly and elegantly eating from a lunchbox. She didn't seem bothered at all, and even ate with such grace, as if it were some grand feast. It was a far cry from the picky eater she used to be, stuffing every kind of meat into her lunchbox years ago.

"Aren't you picky about food anymore"

Han Li heard the sound, lifted her head from her phone to glance at him, but ignored him and continued dealing with matters on her phone. There was a pile of things at the company that needed her attention.

"Can't you concentrate when eating Don't you worry about choking" Zhao Tingxing said again.

Han Li was disturbed again and became angry: “What's it to you”

After finishing, he picked up the lunchbox in front of him and got up to leave the meeting room. He didn't want to stay in the same space with him for a moment.

Zhao Tingxing couldn't eat anyway, now he could even less. What kind of woman is she, with such a temper. He'd be a dog if he dared to manage her again.

Hani was incredibly busy. She had been on a business trip to Beijing for several days, and there was a mountain of work waiting for her back at the company. Especially since Yiwu had also returned to Beijing these past two days to take care of Yixin, the company felt completely unmanaged.

The design draft is basically done, so she won't need to keep an eye on it later. Originally, she planned to return to Sanzhou, but Han Zhaoyi has been staying with her at the hotel these past two days, and it's not convenient to send her back to Yi's house for now, which puts her in a dilemma.

After dinner and replying to various company messages, she returned home to Yi's place, wanting to see what was wrong with Yi Xin.

As she stepped out of the glass doors of the building, Han Li saw Cheng Shaofan's car pull up in front of her. She smiled knowingly and got into the car with practiced ease. "No need to thank me," she said, "I was just heading to Yi's place."

He knows her too well, he must know that Vivian is back in Beijing. He wouldn't dare go looking for her himself, so he uses her as a shield.

"One who bestows great kindness does not expect thanks. If he ever needs my help, I will certainly go through fire and water for him."

Han Li snorted coldly, men's words were hard to believe.

As soon as I arrived at Yi's house and stepped into the courtyard, a clear crashing sound came from the main house, followed by Yiwu's enraged shout: "Even if you're crazy, there has to be a limit! Have all the men in the world died There's only Gu Ruandong left"

Yixin's voice was hysterical, "Yes, all the men in the world, I only want him. What should I do You tell me what to do, I just can't forget him."

Having experienced it once, all subsequent men are bland.

"Then go find him, live or die you'll get some closure."

“Do you think I wouldn't dare to go find him I will find him.”

"Yvonne, I'm so frustrated. I tried to reason with you before, even took you on a trip to relax, but it got worse. My patience is gone. I don't want to argue about this anymore. If you keep acting crazy at home, I'll have no choice but to take you to the hospital. Get treatment for your illness. Just close all those brand stores of yours and stay out of Han Zhao Yi's sight."

Yiwu doesn't understand, and never has. Her family wasn't poor, and Yixin herself was far from it. Even superior, you could say. She was always proud and high-minded, and in university she wouldn't stoop to doing things for money.

She suddenly had a terrifying thought, "Do you think you willingly did that How did you get in touch with him"

Outside, Han Li and Cheng Shao Fan also heard her question. Cheng Shao Fan's face darkened as he walked inside, and Han Li followed suit.

Yvonne saw Cheng Shaofan arrive and her face darkened even more, waiting for Yi Xin's reply.

Out of everyone in this room, Han Li is the only one who has spent a significant amount of time with Gu Ruandong, so she has the most say in this.

Yixin heard Ywen's question and exclaimed incredulously, "I was in college at that time. You think I'm foolish enough to be lured" She had gone to great lengths to get close to Chen, who worked under him.

Han Li also chimed in: "Actually, Gu Ruandong is very upright and principled at heart. He has too many people under him, and they're too diverse. Sometimes the things his subordinates do, he may not necessarily know about, but the outside world attributes it to him. Besides, he doesn't care about public opinion."

"To be honest, this is Yi Xin's issue, and it's her mindset that needs to change." Han Li didn't mince words.

Yi Xin went even crazier: “What qualifications do you have to say that about me”

She pointed at Hanli: "You're chasing after men, has anyone even paid you any attention"

"And you, what use is it even if you do well Cheng Shaofei didn't break up with you anyway"

None of us should talk about anyone or interfere with anyone.

She wasn't feeling well, and she wouldn't let anyone else feel well either. She pointed at everyone's heart, and the entire room fell silent instantly.

Indeed, no one can say for sure.

Cheng ShaoFan looked at YiWen, opened his mouth as if to say something, but seeing her strange complexion, he ultimately swallowed his words.

Yiwu: "From now on, I won't bother with you anymore. If you want to die, no one can stop you. Even Buddha can't save fools."

Yi Xin: "You're the fool, at least I got something. What about you You've been Cheng Shaofan's spare tire for how many years Has he ever touched you"

Slap!

Yvonne slapped her, so angry that her hand was shaking.

Yi Xin was hurt, naturally wanting to retaliate and hit back. Cheng Shaofan on the side grabbed Yi Wen and pulled her behind him. Yi Wen stumbled and almost lost her balance.

And Yi Xin's slap landed squarely on Cheng Shao Fan.

The scene became chaotic. The door to the side room suddenly swung open, and the elder couple from the Yi family stormed out with furious expressions: "Have you all finished making a ruckus Is it over yet Now get out of here!"

"From now on, no one is allowed in without my permission."

"Hànlì, please bring Zhāocái back home tonight."

The elders spoke, and everyone fell silent, afraid to utter another word. They had thought the elders weren't home just now.

Four people were driven out of the yard by the two elders. Standing at the doorstep, they continued to be silent, none of them in a good mood.

Cheng Shao Fan opened the car door. “Get in.”

Talking without context and not knowing who to call on.

She walked away without a word.

Yvonne did the same, walking straight past him when he said to get in the car.

Only Han Li and he stood there, watching the sisters' backs, both helpless. They were both hit in their sensitive spots, feeling uncomfortable inside.

"Shall I take you back to the construction site" Cheng Shaofan asked.

"Go pick up Han Zhaoyi from kindergarten, school's almost out."

This afternoon, Yi is at her family home. She's torn over whether to bring Han Zhao-yi back into her life. After all, Yi Xin isn't in a good mental state and it won't improve overnight. Yi's parents certainly can't just ignore her.

The two remained silent in the car, each lost in their own thoughts. Cheng Shaofan kept his face grim and only spoke when he dropped her off at kindergarten. "I'm not feeling well today, I won't wait for Xiao Zhaocai."

He drove away after that.her of them spoke. Shu Tinglan focused on driving very seriously while Zuo Yu'an was using his phone to locate surveillance videos near her home's community, but today the internet connection was a bi...
