Zhou Ming saw Cheng Zhimin’s car leave before he drove back to pick her up. 。Don’t get discouraged, go back to work. 。In Zhou Ming’s view, this is a problem that inevitably arises when marrying into a wealthy family. Regardless of what others think, he lives his life at his own pace. 。How could Zhou Ming possibly know about the complex relationships between them? 。
Shu Tinglan got into the car, fastened her seatbelt, and said nothing. She felt utterly exhausted. 。She knew deep down that even if she and Zhuo Yu’an were determined to be together, even if Zhuo Yu’an was willing to sever ties with his family for her, their lives would never return to peaceful normalcy. At this moment, she felt utterly disheartened. 。Zhou Ming brought her back to the law firm. Seeing that she looked listless, he introduced her to a project to distract her. It was a financing project for a real estate company. 。He said: “The real estate project you did last time for Lisong was very successful. You can specialize in real estate projects in the future.” 。For this financing project, I’ve already had the preliminary discussions. You just need to be responsible for the specific execution. 。”OK, thank you, Teacher Zhou.” 。Being busy is a good thing, there’s no time to overthink. 。But for some reason, when Teacher Zhou mentioned the project of Lisen Shichuang, a string in her mind suddenly tightened. She asked: “Teacher Zhou, won’t there be any problems with Lisen Shichuang’s acquisition of YuZhong Real Estate?” Because it was a project introduced by Cheng Zhimin, she suddenly felt uneasy. 。Zhou Ming was taken aback for a moment, then replied: “No problem, it’s already been delivered. Lysen transferred the full amount to Yizhong Real Estate last month.” 。Shu Tinglan carefully reviewed the entire cooperation process, making sure there were no loopholes. Only then did she let out a sigh of relief and pray silently that nothing would go wrong. 。When she got home in the evening, Zhuo Yu’an had already returned home and was preparing dinner. The man stood tall and straight, wearing a loose-fitting house robe as he carefully cooked in the kitchen. Her eyes welled up at the sight of his attentive back. 。She changed into slippers and walked into the kitchen, wrapping her arms around his waist from behind, leaning against him completely, savoring his warmth. 。On her way home from work, she was contemplating whether to tell Zhuo Yunan about Cheng Zhimin’s pressure on her to divorce. She was also considering the possibility of divorce, but leaning against his back at this moment, all those hesitations and considerations vanished. 。His back was like that, solid and secure, able to take her through any storm. That’s why she wouldn’t get a divorce. 。So she didn’t even mention it to Zhuo Yu’an, hanging on him like a koala. 。Zhuo Yu’an wanted to turn around and hug her, but she stopped him. 。”Cook soon, I’m starving. ” 。”
Good. ” Zhuo Yu’an chuckled, speeding up his movements with the koala on his back. 。After the meal, the two walked hand-in-hand by the lake in the community. Autumn had begun, and the evening air was biting cold. Zhuo Yu’an had originally been holding her hand, but her fingers were abnormally cold. He turned and opened his own jacket, taking her into his arms. Hearing her sniffle, he asked,
“Do you have a cold?”
“Mmm, a little” 。Even his voice was a whisper. 。
Go home. 。”
Good” 。”I hurried home and draped a thin blanket over her, then brought her some hot water to drink while she warmed her hands. I said helplessly: ‘You wouldn’t listen when I told you to wear more clothes downstairs earlier. You can’t be so vain in the future.'” 。He sometimes doesn’t understand girls. He clearly just takes a walk in the community at night, but he insists on dressing up. Who is he dressing for? Wouldn’t it be uncomfortable if he caught a cold?
“Okay, I won’t dress up prettily anymore” 。She obediently answered and drank the hot water in small sips, finally feeling a little warmer all over. 。<<
The two of them cuddled up on the sofa and chose a movie to watch. After finishing, they went back to their room to sleep. Because she was feeling unwell, Zhuo Yu’an stayed very well-behaved all night, just holding her as he slept without any other actions. >>> 。。As soon as she arrived at the law firm’s parking lot, Cheng Zhimin’s voice call came as scheduled. Her voice was serious and cold, just a few simple words:
“When are you getting a divorce?”
Shu Tinglan also replied coldly: “I don’t plan to divorce” 。There was a deathly silence on the phone, so quiet that Shu Tinglan thought she had hung up. 。But soon, a sharp and piercing, even threatening voice came from Cheng Zhimin’s phone: “Shu Tinglan, I gave you a chance, don’t blame me for being ruthless.” 。”Please go ahead.” 。She no longer wants to run away, she will face it head-on. 。In this world, besides her mother and Zhuo Yu’an, she had nothing left to lose. 。Actually, before she went home from work yesterday, she went back to the hospital for another long talk with her mother. 。That was the first time they had discussed their father’s past so calmly since his death. 。Mom asked, “Have you read your dad’s letter?”
She said, “I have.” 。”Although your father is a complete scoundrel, he still has a sliver of conscience left. He didn’t drag my daughter and me into his mess, allowing us to live an honest life.” 。”Well, Dad also said in the letter that his feelings for you haven’t changed one bit. ” 。Shū Tínglan emphasized this sentence, hoping that her mother could find some solace. 。Shu Ma heard this, her face trembled slightly before she shook her head and smiled wryly: “It doesn’t matter anymore, Lan Lan. Don’t think of me as crazy these past few years. I’m actually more at peace than you think. The feelings I had with your father are buried with him, meaningless now…” 。That day, when I saw his letter, I was overwhelmed with emotion because he told me about you. He may not be a good husband, but at least he’s a good father. 。”A good father? Maybe so! Shu Tinglan thought.” 。”Mom, do you know about the past feud between Dad and the Zhu family?” This was also the reason she came to the hospital this time, wanting to seek her mother’s advice. 。So what? It has nothing to do with you. 。Lann, your dad has already hurt you for so many years. From now on, live your life the way you want, absolutely don’t let your father influence you anymore. 。Even in death, he dares to affect your future happiness. I’ll go find him even if I die to settle this! 。”
Bah bah bah, what dead or alive? Mom, you live to be a hundred years old!” 。<<>> 。”Alright, did your mother-in-law threaten you? Look, Lanlan, help me get discharged. I’ll go home and she won’t have a chance to threaten you anymore.” 。”Your body….”
“Mom good morning, I was just pretending to be sick before and didn’t want to leave the hospital.” 。I don’t want to stay in the hospital anymore. I can’t stand your mother-in-law coming to the hospital every other day to visit me. The doctors and nurses here can’t stop her at all. 。I went home to have some peace and quiet. 。”Thank you, Mom”
。Shu Tinglan then arranged for her mother to be discharged from the hospital and returned to their house in the suburbs. 。There’s Cheng Chen in a nearby house, so we can look out for each other. 。”Don’t tell Yu An about this, it’s his mother, don’t make things difficult for him.” 。As long as the two of you are happy, that’s all that matters. 。Shu Tinglan had taken care of his mother’s affairs, so he no longer had any worries about threatening Cheng Zimin. 。I’m sorry everyone, this process will be very painful. 。
In time, things will get better. Listen will become more independent and excellent. 。
