Chapter 338: Meeting Li Yu
quickly and personally brought it up to him.During a meal, I received a video call from Lin Zhixian."Why aren't you at home I called for ages and you didn't answer." She sounded accusatory."Busy, my...It has absolutely nothing to do with Sun Yueyue.
However, Zhu Yu'an was rarely able to be with Ting Lan. He wouldn't reveal anything because of this. Privately, he had already asked Zhang, the lawyer from the legal department, to withdraw the lawsuit and was also pushing for a speedy prosecution and trial at the public security bureau to clear Sun Yueyue's name.
He had secretly arranged everything, but he didn't say a word to Shu Tinglan. After work, he took her out for dinner. It was rare for her to be so calm and composed with him lately, which truly touched him.
After sitting down, Liu Yi happened to call. The children were looking for her, and now they didn't need to avoid her in front of Zhuo Yu'an, so she answered it openly and honestly.
The children were still scrambling to get in front of the camera, sweetly calling her through the phone.
"Mom, we miss you. When are you coming home"
Shū Tínglan looks at the camera and smiles gently.
“Mommy, how many more days until you go back”
Opposite Zhuo YUAN was watching their interaction, and he also stopped ordering. He quietly listened to their voices, only wishing he could sit opposite the kids and interact with them.
“Mommy, Auntie Liu took us to the hospital to see Uncle Yi today. Uncle Yi said his injury is almost healed, and he'll take us to the amusement park to play when it is.” Shuxiaohe liked Uncle Yi the best, she couldn't be more affectionate when mentioning him.
Across from him, Zhu Yu's heart skipped a beat, and his expression gradually faded. It wasn't enough that Shu Xiaohua had stabbed at his heart, now even Shu Xiaonian came to add insult to injury.
“Mommy, Uncle Yi said that when he's healed, he'll teach me how to fence. He said he's really good at fencing and even won a championship.”
This adoring tone hit the nail on the head, Zhu Yu felt a pang in his heart. Wasn't it just fencing He could learn it too.
Shu Tinglan cooperated with the children very well: “Wow, Uncle Yi is so amazing!”
"Uncle Yi is the best, we like Uncle Yi the most!" The children said in unison. This liking was the most genuine, without any discount.
After Shu Tinglan hung up the video, she saw that the temperature around the man opposite her had dropped several degrees. She was afraid he was going to freeze, his icy eyes glared at her, and he didn't speak. This made Shu Tinglan feel a twinge of guilt for no reason.
The children seem to have hurt him
Is that his own fault then
Guilt vanished, and I felt a twinge of schadenfreude that made me want to laugh.
Before he could even make a laughing expression, a tall girl suddenly appeared beside their table. Shu Tinglan looked up and was stunned. She felt familiar, then immediately remembered, this was Li Yu, the blind date that Zhuo Yu'an had before, the daughter-in-law that the Zhuo family had chosen for him.
Of course Zhuo Yu'an recognized her, frowned and nodded at Li Yu as a greeting, without wanting any communication. Instead, Li Yu looked at them in disbelief.
“Did you... get back together Or did you never actually split up”
Li Yu hadn't forgotten the humiliation of running to America to find Zhuo Yu'an after listening to Cheng Zhimin's words, only to be met with coldness. Now seeing him sitting face-to-face with Shu Tinglan, her pride was even more deeply wounded.
There were still some lingering feelings. When she learned he was divorced rather than having broken up, she was considerate and didn't reveal Shu Tinglan's family background to anyone in the circle.
The three of them didn't expect Senzhou to be so big, and they would coincidentally meet Li Yu like this.
Shutinglan didn't care, after all, she had no relationship with Zhuo Yu'an anymore. Whether it was his new love or old love appearing, she remained indifferent. But when a flash of resentment crossed Liyu's eyes, she suddenly felt a twinge of worry. What if Liyu told Cheng Jimin about her meeting with Zhuo Yu'an Would Cheng Jimin come to find her again
If you go looking for her, it means sooner or later you'll find out about the children.
Oh, no, once Zhuo Yu'an knew about the children, Cheng Zhimin would know eventually.
Her emotions instantly plummeted, and she glared coldly at Zhuo Yu'an and Li Min.
Zhuo Yu'an naturally felt Ting Lan's fluctuating emotions. The pleasant atmosphere of the evening vanished the moment Li Yu appeared, and he said coldly:
“Sorry, we are eating.”
The implication is that she has disturbed them, so they want her to leave.
Li Yu was a beloved daughter of heaven, and this lifetime she had only been treated with such coldness by Zhuo Yu'an. Naturally, her heart was extremely unhappy, but thanks to her good upbringing, she wouldn't act out in public. She merely glanced at them before leaving.
Li Yu called Lu YaoYao as soon as she left the restaurant.
"Did Zhuo Yu'an get back together with his ex-wife"
Lu Yao was reading a script when she received a strange phone call from Li Yu. She tossed the script aside.
"Miss Li, didn't you ask the wrong person How would I know"
There was a hint of guilt in her words. Last time she saw Shu Tinglan, she had been so drunk she couldn't remember anything. Later, Lu Kuo told her that Zhuo Yu'an had sent Shu Tinglan home. As for what really happened, only ghosts knew.
"Well, I'll ask Teacher Cheng." Li Yudan was aggressive, trying to intimidate Lu YaoYao.
"What does it have to do with me Just ask Teacher Cheng yourself." Lu Yaoyao, this young miss, was never afraid of threats. Besides, it had nothing to do with her. Li Yu must have gotten the wrong idea calling her.
"Where did Lu Kuo go"
"If you want to ask Lu Kuo, why go around and ask me, wasting my time."
"Click, Lu Yaoyao hung up the phone directly. The two hadn't gotten along since childhood, and they looked down on each other, so after growing up, they tried to avoid contact as much as possible."
Only Lu Kuò is the social butterfly in the courtyard, able to chat with anyone.
Li Yu faced Lu Kuò, because they were the same age, she cared more about face and didn't easily ask about Zhuo Yuān. As a result, Lu Kuò took the initiative to call and persuaded her earnestly.
"Li Yu, I'm not saying this to be mean, but Zhuo Yu'an really doesn't deserve you. He's divorced, a second-hand man, why do you still have feelings for him"
At the sound of "second-hand man," Li Yu burst into laughter, instantly dispelling the gloom that had just enveloped her.
The more men like that, the more interesting they are!
Li Yu truly feels that when she sees Zhuo YUAN at night, he is even more mature and charming than before. In short, she's bewitched. She doesn't think about him when he's not around and enjoys herself, but the moment she sees him, her heart is drawn to him, captivated. She feels nothing for other men in comparison.
Lu Kuo speaks arrogantly and presumptuously.
"Well, you could consider me too. I'm the same kind of man."
One sentence made Li Yu hang up the phone, forgetting the original reason she called Lu Kuò.
On this side, Zhuo Yunan and Shu Tinglan returned to the hotel together after dinner. Given their previous experience, Shu Tinglan went straight back to her room and closed the door after returning to the hotel, no longer communicating with him excessively.
< Just before closing, he stressed it one more time. >
"As for Sun Yueyue's matter, I hope you can show leniency." This could be considered a plea for mercy.
Zhuo Yu'an nodded and said no more.
And I hope your mother won't harm the two little ones," she stressed again.
If your reading experience hasn't been good these past few days, you can wait a few days. Listening will be taking two kids back to Senzhou with her family of four starting fresh again. We'll see each other in 9 days after that. Since she has to go back, there needs to be a reasonable explanation, please understand.
Then I also have to admit fault, because there are many readers who follow updates in real-time every day. So, besides being happy, I'm also particularly afraid of disappointing everyone's liking and especially hoping to write even better and better. This leads to overthinking and ends up with me becoming hesitant and losing the previous fearless attitude.
I am reflecting deeply on myself, hoping to eventually present better works to everyone. Thank you all for your unwavering support.
