Chapter 181: Reunion in Familiar Territory
ter since last night, unsure if this person got along with Qin Jingwen. 。 Sister Yang: I don't know about that. 。Sister Yang was also curious, but it didn't involve her interests, so she didn't nee...Tang Dani tried to pull her hand out, but it was no use, she could only protest with her voice.
"Let go, I still have work to do" 。"When we finish work, let's go out for dinner." 。Song Xinzhe, with a smug smile on his face, proposed the condition for releasing his hand. 。"I don't have time, I have to work late." 。Tang Danni refused Song Xinzhe, but she didn't dare to look him in the eye, afraid her gaze would betray what she had said. 。Then I won't let go, and you don't work either. I won't eat dinner either. 。Let's see who can hold out the longest. 。"Song Xinzhe said somewhat rascalishly, now he could no longer limit Tang Danni to just the image of a good man. When it was time to be rascally, he couldn't be humble and polite." 。
"You..."
Tang Dani didn't know what to say. She wasn't as stubborn as Qin Jingwen and knew she couldn't stand up to Song Xizhe. In the end, she could only compromise.
"Wait for me for a while, I'll finish something and then we can go out for dinner." 。"No problem, I'll wait for you here." 。You can stay as late as you like. 。Song Xinzhe knew he had succeeded. As long as Tang Danni agreed, he could wait, even longer would be better. Ideally, if he drank enough, he could continue to act like a scoundrel. 。Qin Jingwen left the hospital, thinking about Tang Danni and Song Xinzhe's love about to begin. She felt warm inside, happy for them. 。But the more happy others were, the lonelier she felt. 。All people in the world have their own harbor to rely on, only she is a lonely individual, only her loneliness and hardship are shouldered by no one. 。Qin Jingwen drove to a supermarket, planning to buy some things to take back to the suburbs. 。The car had just stopped when the phone rang. 。Qin Jingwen glanced at Chu Yang, who immediately answered. 。"How could a busy person have time to call me"Qin Jing said jokingly. 。"Not busy to the point where I can't even answer the phone." 。"Where are you Are you off work yet"
Chu Yang's warm voice came over the phone.
Every time she heard Chu Yang's voice, she would think of Qiao Shunchen. 。If Qiao Shunchen could be this warm to her as well, how wonderful it would be. 。“Work's over, I'm going back to the suburbs right away.” 。"Hold on for a bit, I need your help with something. " 。Then Qin Jingwen restarted the car, intending to return to the suburbs after helping Chu Yang. 。Qin Jingwen drove to her former residence. From the moment she got out of the car, it seemed that every place held memories of her and Qiao Shunchen. Although there weren't many happy memories, his presence in those recollections was enough. 。As Qin Jing walked to apartment 18 and pressed the doorbell, she waited for Chu Yang to open the door. However, before he could arrive, the opposite door swung open, revealing Qiao Shunchen stepping out followed by Su Qin. 。The moment their eyes met, Qin Jingwen was very surprised to see the two of them walking out together, a strange feeling in her heart. 。She believed that Qiao Shunchen's feelings for Su Qin were simply pure care and help, but Su Qin had never felt purely about Qiao Shunchen. 。Su Qin looked at Qiao Shunchen's affectionate eyes, which made Qin Jingwen even more heartbroken. 。But she suddenly realized she was overthinking things. Qiao Shunchen wasn't her person, why would she be upset 。The moment their eyes met, Qiao Shunchen was also surprised, but when he saw Qin Jingwen standing at Chu Yang's door, his cold brows immediately furrowed. 。Qin Jingwen had said more than once that it was impossible between her and Chu Yang. Now, is this slapping herself in the face 。Just ended things with him and ran straight to Chu Yang's place Don't you have any shame at all 。"Mr. Qiao, Secretary Su..." 。Qin Jingwen still spoke first to say hello. 。No matter what she couldn't pretend to ignore him, but she didn't expect that greeting him would put herself in an awkward situation. 。Joe Shun-chen glared at her without speaking, while Su Qin looked at her with disdain and said nothing. 。Just as Qin Jingwen was feeling awkward, Chu Yang came out of the room. 。"Wenwen, you're here" 。" Joe is also 。Chu Yang opened his mouth to greet, but his voice was somewhat serious. 。 Qiao Shunchen still didn't speak, he just stood there glaring at Qin Jingwen. 。Let's go in. 。Qin Jingwen felt it was unnecessary to talk to these two dark-faced people, and she realized that her greeting was inappropriate. 。Okay, let's go in. 。"As Chu Yang spoke, he reached out and put his arm around Qin Jingwen's shoulder. Before turning, Chu Yang couldn't help but speak to Su Qin," 。"Su secretary, Wenwen greets you. You should know the most basic manners." 。Don't look down on Wenwen, she is a good person and there is nothing to despise about her. 。Chu Yang's voice was unprecedentedly cold and hard, filled with anger. 。He saw Qiao Shunchen and Su Qin's reactions in the video inside the house. He could understand Qiao Shunchen's reaction, he must be angry that Qin Jingwen appeared here. 。But Su Qin's arrogant and contemptuous look at Qin Jingwen enraged Chu Yang. 。Su Qin didn't expect Chu Yang to mention her, which surprised and frightened her at the same time. 。She stood beside Qiao Shunchen, his expression was unreadable to him. 。That's why she dared to look down on Qin Jingwen. Chu Yang's words not only exposed her but also made her look very bad. 。
"President Chu..."
Su Qin was about to explain when Qiao Shunchen cast a cold gaze at her, causing Su Qin to close her mouth again
But Ke Chu Yang didn't mean to end, he opened his mouth and continued speaking. 。"Mr. Qiao, it seems your secretary needs to go back to school." 。"Warmly…"
"Forget it, don't say any more..." 。 。Qin Jingwen interrupted Chu Yang's words, not because she disliked Chu Yang standing up for her, but because she didn't want to be burned by Qiao Shunchen's angry gaze. 。She didn't understand why he was so angry, and she didn't understand why he wouldn't speak. 。If it's because of her disgust, the most she should do now is disappear from his face. 。"Su, the secretary, will not greet you next time. She won't disturb you again. This time I was out of line." 。Qin Jingwen said sarcastically, about Su Qinqiao and Shunchen, he should know very well. If he wanted to punish her, he could just say a word, and if he protected her, he would just expose all her dissatisfaction and prejudice. Even then, Qiao Shunchen couldn't do anything to her. 。Besides, Su Qin had a "protective amulet" that could protect her for a lifetime, which Qin Jingwen couldn't compare to. 。Qin Jingwen's words made Su Qin even more embarrassed. Without using a single swear word, without a disdainful look in her eyes, she just let her fall into this awkward situation. 。“Wenwen, tomorrow I'll be moving out of here, so we won't have to meet such impolite people anymore. 。Chu Yang was still angry. After saying that, he hugged Qin Jingwen and turned to go into the house. 。Joe Shunchen heard from their conversation Su Qin's disrespect for Qin Jingwen. He glared sideways at Su Qin with a warning before striding away. 。He didn't really care about Su Qin's disrespect, what annoyed him was why Qin Jingwen came to the Chu Yang family. It was Chu Yang's very natural hand resting on Qin Jingwen's shoulder that bothered him. 。Why didn't she reject Chu Yang's advances Why did she have to show her presence in front of him Or had they already naturally become a couple 。Qin Jingwen stepped into the room and stood at the door changing her shoes. She didn't hear any sound from outside, realizing that Qiao Shunchen didn't even reproach Su Qin. This disappointed her greatly. 。Qin Jingwen told herself that even if she was disappointed, she had to let it go. Because how Qiao Shunchen treated Su Qin was his business, these two people had nothing to do with her. 。Qin Jingwen thought Chu Yang called her here for software research, but when she walked in and saw a table full of delicious food, she realized she had been tricked. 。“You've learned how to lie” 。After tidying up her disheartened emotions, Qin Jingwen joked playfully. 。"If you weren't being lied to, you wouldn't come here either." 。"
Chu Yang also used the fastest speed to forget what just happened, entering another stage
" 。Since he wasn't busy today, he left work early and cooked a delicious meal by himself. He planned to give Qin Jingwen a little surprise, but an unexpected incident happened. 。He just said that they have to move tomorrow, he absolutely won't let this happen again, won't let Qin Jingwen be embarrassed. 。"Go wash your hands and eat, it'll get cold if you don't. " 。" Qin Jingwen calmly accepted the situation, placing her bag down and then going to wash her hands. " 。At this time, Tang Danni and Song Xinzhe were together, Qiao Shunchen and Su Qin had just broken up, and she also needed an environment that wouldn't make her lonely. 。As they began their meal, Qin Jingwen declined to drink because she was driving. The two of them only talked about trivial matters, keeping the atmosphere light and pleasant. 。"Winwin, I heard you're buying a house" 。Chu Yang couldn't help but bring up the topic he cared about very much. 。“Was it Dani who told you again” 。It seems Dany hasn't been completely honest with you. 。" Song Xinzhe remained silent, only giving a faint smile. 。Yes, I've already paid the deposit and plan to handle the paperwork tomorrow. 。“Qin Jingwen answered honestly.” 。"You need a loan because you don't have enough money, right I'll lend you the money and you can buy it in full. That way, there's no pressure." 。"Chu Yang didn't dare to tell Qin Jing to lend him money, because she would definitely refuse. She would feel insulted if he did. " 。 Qin Jingwen was silent for a moment before replying to Chu Yang in a seemingly relaxed manner. 。"I'd feel more pressure if I owed you money. After all this time, don't you know me by now" 。For now, the money is enough. When I run out of money, I'll borrow from you. 。“
Qin Jingwen refused. She would rather owe money to the bank than owe anyone a favor
"Wen Wen, don't always refuse my help" 。It is right for friends to help each other. 。You're not working at my company, but I'll still trouble you with some software matters. 。Wouldn't this back-and-forth be a bit unusual 。"
Chu Yang patiently persuaded Qin Jingwen.
" 。Knowing she had to do everything herself, knowing she didn't want to owe anyone anything 。But Chu Yang didn't want to see her struggling, didn't want to see her fighting for money with all her might. 。He wanted her to live more comfortably, more easily. 。You don't need my help, how will I ask you for help in the future 。You're not afraid of owing me favors, you're just refusing my request for help. 。" Chu Yang had no other choice. In order for Qin Jingwen to accept his help, he could only use this trick. 。"Seeing as you put it that way, how could I possibly refuse to help you" 。"I'm still capable, so..." "Wenwen, just don't refuse anymore." 。I've heard about your situation from Dani. 。You took out a loan to buy a house, but you don't even have enough money for a year's worth of living expenses. You bought a new house and still need to furnish it, and your two kids need to switch to a new kindergarten. There are so many places where you need to spend money, and with not enough cash on hand, life feels unstable. 。"My money isn't free. Just like bank interest, you pay me interest for the amount of time you borrow it. That way, you don't owe me favors, and you can save on loan fees. " 。To get Qin Jingwen to accept his money, Chu Yang really tried every trick in the book. 。ned was the fact that she had saved his life. 。"Back then, we probably shouldn't have known each other. I don't remember the specifics, and this plot point is part of my amnesia." 。But I should be the...
