Chapter 16

Wen Ning didn’t know what kind of drama Zhou Yinchu was singing again with this play.

However, Zhou Yinchu seemed to have reminded her of a very important matter, as a mother, she couldn’t turn a blind eye to all of Li Che’s abnormal behavior.

Although this child has always been normal on the surface, and even as sunny and cheerful as before, but she always noticed something wrong with him, according to reason, this age of the child is insecure, the loss of his father will inevitably cause a huge psychological trauma.

And the more the child is reluctant to show his vulnerable side, on the contrary, the more worried Wen Ning.

She wanted to go on the small program to see the nearest children’s hospital.

Instead, her fingertips were still stuck on the page of the hot search.

It was almost noon, and Zhou Yinchu and Ying Ying’s hotness had gone down considerably, with new buzzwords replacing the key positions they were in.

She swiped through the comments about how well-matched they were, thinking about the scene that happened last night and his sudden mention of the actress. He was probably not surprised by the god-awful entertainers, and who he knew this about.

The conclusion was self-evident.

But now she wouldn’t have to be stuck with this, and she wasn’t afraid of being dragged into it.

She quickly closed the page that had nothing to do with her, the busyness of her bottom life never allowing her to be distracted.

Wen Ning never expected that someone would recognize her from the blurry pixelated photo. He Mei called in a hurry, “Wen Ning, did Zhou Yinchu look for you?”

Wen Ning didn’t know how to speak in front of her old friend for a while, frankly admitting it or denying it.

“He didn’t do anything to you, did he?”

He Mei was worried: “Anyway, this can’t be explained in a few words, I’ll go to your store later–”

Wen Ning couldn’t refuse in time, He Mei had already appeared at the store, and the car was parked on the side of the road askew.

“Wen Ning,” He Mei seemed to have noticed the special nature of the occasion, as well as the privacy of the conversation between them, and lowered her voice as much as possible, “He didn’t bully you, did he?”

In He Mei’s opinion, her friend looked soft and weak, and Zhou Yinchu definitely didn’t seem like a good person.

“No …… no.” Wen Ning’s face burned and rolled as hot as a burning cloud.

“Auntie, place a bowl of wontons for me, I want a big bowl.” Saying this, He Mei was about to scan the code to pay, but she was stopped by Wen Ning’s mother a few rounds of bitter words.

Wen Ning’s mother smiled, “You didn’t help out much with Che Che’s enrollment.”

Under Wen Ning’s unintentional coaxing, everyone tacitly agreed that the one who had contributed a lot to this matter was He Mei, who became more and more vain.

She approached Wen Ning’s ear, and just as if she hadn’t let her guard down because of Wen Ning’s “no”, she interrogated the details: “Did you have dinner together yesterday?”

“Sort of.”

Wen Ning wanted to speak, but her thoughts returned to the meeting last night.

“It’s fine to have dinner, but I’m afraid that Zhou Yinchu’s heart of thievery won’t stop, and he’s playing with other ideas,” He Mei’s words were deafening in her ears, “In short, Wen Ning, you listen to me, you stay away from him.”

“And don’t look at Zhou Yinchu’s sidekicks, there aren’t many decent ones, especially that Xue Zheng Yao.”

Saying that, He Mei had a bellyful of resentment.

Wen Ning immediately heard the cattiness of these words, and redirected her attention to the Xue Zheng Yao in He Mei’s mouth, so as to avoid He Mei’s urgent inquiry, “What did he do to piss you off?”

“Weren’t you guys at the same table before?”

He Mei’s bowl of wontons went down before she finally put down her chopsticks, “I really had the bad luck of eight lifetimes to be at the same table with him, maybe it’s the so-called narrow road of enemies.”

“His father has recently been engaged in a foreign investment case, the partner is our company, the result of his father sent to the person is no one else, is a know-nothing about him,” He Mei recently most of the energy are back and forth in the two companies, “is equal to me a person responsible for the cooperation of the two companies of all the big and small matters, I’m almost bored to death – I’m not sure if I can do it, I’m not sure if I can do it. I’m almost bored to death–”

“Then you look at the past love on ……”

“He and I are not Lu Chen and Ye Shu.” He Mei had always been attentive, and she made a point of mentioning the other couple in the class, only she wouldn’t mention her ex-boyfriend in front of the classmates she was close to.

“How’s that pair of theirs doing?”

The two unconsciously gossiped.

“How can it be, it’s just a breakup?” He Mei said with a bit of depression, “I heard that before it was Ye Shu who didn’t want to get married, and now it’s Lu Chen who wants to engage in a career and doesn’t want to get married, and the two of them have been together for more than ten years now, and they haven’t quite settled down yet.”

He Mei sighed again, “I guess Ye Shu could not see Lu Chen’s family history at the beginning, but so far, and can’t find a better person …… Lu Chen, it’s kind of simmering a little bit.”

“I don’t deny it ah, I also liked Lu Chen before, if it wasn’t for Xue Zheng Yao that psycho peeking at my love letters, maybe I would really go after him.”

He Mei had never denied on the matter of having a crush on Lu Chen back then.

“But now, there’s actually nothing to regret.”

He Mei spoke to herself, “I always feel that what belongs to you will always return to you in another way.”

Wen Ning understood He Mei’s big-headedness on the surface, as well as her inner softness, “He Mei, when you say that, I can’t even find words to comfort you.”

The topic reverted back to Zhou Yinchu.

He Mei did everything she could to make her best friend more wary, “In short, Ning Ning, you shouldn’t think too well of people, Zhou Yinchu’s kind of people look like human beings, but secretly hide evil intentions ……”

In fact, he had gotten his way.

For the vested matter, Wen Ning recognized He Mei’s statement, but in fact there was no need to infinitely magnify his evil, wasn’t it all still possible with her acquiescence?

Zhou Yinchu was also guilty of not forcing himself.

“If he’s going to say anything false about helping you, you must think twice.”

“Good.”

Wen Ning cast a gentle, watery smile.

It was night, the Ritz Carlton.

Zhou Yinchu felt that this suite was emptier than ever.

Half a day ago, when his assistant told him the answer to Ms. Wen’s rejection of his arrangement, he did not show any intuitive anger. It was obvious that one of them between the two of them didn’t want to continue.

He even wished that he was a little more shameless than he had imagined; perhaps, he should have utilized Li Che’s tuition to tie her up a few more times.

When exactly did he become such a despicable person, even he couldn’t remember.

Perhaps, it was the business world when one’s startup project could be sold to a large tech-intensive company such as Apple and attached with a not-so-low price.

And by packing up the small group of people he started the business with, he would have gained wealth on a personal level that would have shrunk dramatically.

He chose what was best for him, knowing that he would never do it if she was by his side, but he could only get enough money as soon as possible to go back home and see her.

He had broken with his entire family because of his obsession with her, and he had to make his first pot of money on his own terms.

Unfortunately, it was still a step too late.

That’s why he’s so solicitous of his Silicon Valley friend.

The reason was simple: he had given up on their Team in the first place, and again, as a national, he owed them a huge favor. Though they had not blamed him to his face for his eagerness to make money over the years, he didn’t approve of what he had done in his heart.

Instead, the man who had destroyed his morals hoped that the reappearance of a woman would build their relationship and allow things to get back on track.

But she didn’t come.

He was relieved that even if she didn’t show up, he figured he should be everywhere whenever Wenning needed him. He eagerly wanted to call her number and immediately give her Dr. Qiu’s contact information, even if she didn’t come, he was willing to banish some of his selfishness and help her unconditionally.

Fifteen years later, the one who chose to compromise was still him. The noble head lowered from this moment and submitted to her skirt.

However, the moment he called he heard-

“Sorry, the number you have dialed is in the middle of a call.”
