123 Long time no see

 

Sometimes life is a drama, and Jiang City is really small.

 

An Ran did not think that Lin Li’s new company turned out to be Zhou Han’s  company. Jiang City is really not big!

 

"You have no idea how embarrassing it is. At noon, he came to inspect the  performance, and no one is accompanying him. I didn't know his identity as  well. I thought that he is a customer, thinking that he is here to buy a  house, and even try to get close to him. I pushed a couple of houses  talking about the type of house, lighting, environment, almost just waiting  to bring him to look at the show room, the saddest saddest thing is that I  actually threatened him with the matter about his son pushing you!" In a  restaurant, Lin Li was excitedly telling everything she encountered at noon  today. She really didn't expect that she had such  'fate' with Zhou Han!

 

"How did you know that he is your big boss in the end?" Compared to others,  An Ran is more concerned about this.

 

Lin Li sighed exaggeratedly, and resentfully said, "In the end, our manager  came over and recognized him. He flattered him without pause. Only then did  I know that Zhou Han was the most eligible bachelor that all the women in  our department have been talking about. "

 

"Hahaha." An Ran laugh full of interest, looked at her curiously and asked,  "What happened later?"

 

Lin Li rolled her eyes at her, and said, "Later, of course later I continue  to work. I can't be expecting him to reward me!"

 

"Kekeke." An Ran looked at her laughing. The current Lin Li is much better  than she was when she last saw her. Although she didn't go back to her  original self, but at least she is able to talk and laugh. She isn't  insistent, she just hope time can smooth all the wounds and let her forget  the most unhappy memories.

 

"Don't you think that I really have such bad luck, I am..." Lin Li is still  complaining about her dissatisfaction, talking about the changes in the  company in the past few days.

 

An Ran just smiled and nodded or reply a few words, accommodating her, did  not make too much comment.

 

When she was tired from her endless tirade and started eating something,  An Ran asked, "Is father Lin doing okay?"

 

"En, the doctor said that everything is normal." Lin Li nodded and said,  adding a small eggplant directly into her mouth, eating halfway, suddenly  thought of something, "Ah right--" she wanted to speak, but then noticed  her mouth was eating something, nothing could not be said at all. Busy  swallowing the food in her mouth and watching An Ran, say, "Your apartment,  I will be able to return you the keys in a few days."

 

"What's the matter?" An Ran was puzzled, she was staying there doing well,  and now said she wanted to return the key to her.

 

"Dad can be discharged from the hospital in a few days time. He and mother  have said that they will go home after leaving the hospital. They are used  to living there. There are neighbors and friends they know all their lives.  They will be able to live more comfortable there." Lin Li explained, "The  doctor said that it is a semi-annual review, it will be alright for them to  come over for a few days whenever the review period approaches."

 

"Then what about you, are you going back too?" An Ran looked at her.

 

Lin Li shook her head, and the calm smile of her mouth tried to be casual  about it, "I have even found work here, how can I just go back! Of course,  that's if Zhou Han does not fire me." Actually, it's not that she hadn't  thought about going back, just that her hometown is just too small, it’s  not suitable to work there, and it’s not realistic to go to another city,  so even if there are too many bad memories, she still choose to stay and  start over.

 

"Then you just stay in the apartment, why do you want to return the keys to  me." An Ran somewhat disagreed with her actions. "Lin Li, we are friends,  must you divide it so clearly between us, what's more our house is empty  anyways, additionally you are paying rent, I did not have the intention to  let you stay for free after all." 

 

"Anzi, I don't see you as an outsider. I just want to rely on myself. I am  not a child anymore. You can't protect me like a child always. Really." Lin  Li said seriously, looking at her, with a self-deprecating smile. "I don't  want to be the Lin Li of the past. I want a new beginning." A Lin Li, who  is completely different from the past self.

 

An Ran just looked at her and didn't say anything more. Although Lin Li  looked easy going on the outside, she was also stubborn. Once she made up  her mind, she would not change it. For example, her feelings for Cheng  Xiang, even if she felt pain in her heart, she will force yourself to  continue moving forward.

 

Stretching out her hand, Lin Li tried to make the smile on her face expand  further, and promised, "I am fine, really!"

 

An Ran smiled and nodded. "I know." She has been trying hard and she knew  she would get better and better.

 

Lin Li nodded and said to her, "I will go to the restroom first." then  stand up headed directly in the direction of the restroom.

 

An Ran turned to look out the window, the sky was already dark, the street  lights on both sides of the street lit up, the tide of the rush hour was  over, and the cars on the street were no longer crowded.

 

Su Yi Cheng’s phone call came in at this time, and her mouth was faintly  smiling. She took the phone on the table and picked up the call. “Hello, at  home?”

 

"En, I didn't see you. I called your name at home for a while and no one  responded. Then remembered that you are going out to eat with Lin Li  tonight." Su Yi Cheng said on the phone with some resentment, sounding with  grievances and pity. 

 

"Great leader Su, are you complaining and being jealous?" The smell of  jealousy was so concentrated, she could smell sour smells even when she was  so far away.

 

"En, yes." Su Yi Cheng confessed, not a bit embarrassed.

 

An Ran laughed and asked with concern, "Have you eaten?"

 

"No, you are not home." Su Yi Cheng said on the phone, the tone of  resentment even more pronounced.

 

An Ran was amused by his tone and asked with a smile. "Great leader Su,  when did you become so clingy?" Acting like a child.

 

"Am I?" Someone was completely unaware and asked, "Have you finished the  meal, when will you come back, want me to come pick you up?"

 

An Ran looked at some leftovers on the table and shook the rice in the bowl  that had not finished eating. She said, "En, the meal is almost finished,  but Lin Li just got work, she wants to buy a few suits, so we are going to  go shopping in the mall later."

 

"Oh~~" He responded with some resentful screams, and also dragged the tail  sound very long, the meaning of the resentment is obvious, but he did not  force her, just said, "Then call me when you are done later, I will go pick  you up."

 

An Ran chuckled and nodded, "Okay." Because knowing that refusal is simply  superfluous, that man's way of indulgent is very straightforward and  persistent, but actually she is also enjoying the feeling of being so  spoiled by him.

 

The two said a few more words, then ended the phone call. Only when the  phone in her hand was put away, she saw Lin Li rushing over, her face a  little flustered and serious.

 

"Let's go." Saying that she took the bag and was ready to leave.

 

An Ran looked at her inexplicably and asked, "What happened?" How did she  just go to a restroom and the whole person changed.

 

"It's nothing." Lin Li turned to look at the back, her eyes flashed, and  said, "We are not going to buy clothes, let's go, or it will be late."

 

Seeing her like this, An Ran knew what was going on, and didn’t ask any  more. She took the bag and got up to leave.

 

It’s just that the two had just got up and wanted to leave when they turned  around and saw Cheng Xiang running over here in a hurry. He was blocking in  front of Lin Li and looked at her, and his breathing was a little short  after the run. The ups and downs of the chest are so strong.

 

An Ran understands Lin Li’s abnormality now. Maybe they just happened to  meet when she left for the restroom. Yes, Jiang City is so small that only  two strangers who just passed by each other have a chance to meet again. In  that case it seems that meeting Cheng Xiang here is nothing to be  surprised about.

 

Actually, when she returned to Jiang City, it was only a matter of time  that the two met, but she didn’t think it would be so fast. An Ran turned  to look at Lin Li standing by the side, only to see the hand carrying the  bag clenched tightly on the strap of the bag, the veins of the hand visible  from her exertions.

 

"Lin Li..." Cheng Xiang looked at her, fixedly watching, eyes not even  blinking, as if as long as he blinked, Lin Li would disappear from him and  then he could not find her again. This feeling is so painful, so painful!  He is not sure if he could endure it again.

 

Lin Li looked at him, the strength of her hand became heavier, and her face  went cold and expressionless.

 

Behind Cheng Xiang was Mo Fei chasing after him, he saw An Ran, but was  also surprised a little.

 

An Ran naturally saw Mo Fei as well, and there was nothing more than a  flash of surprise on her face, nothing more.

 

"Lin Li..." Cheng Xiang called out while moving forward and reached out to  pull her, but Lin Li turned around and avoided him.

 

Looking at him indifferently, Lin Li said coldly, "How coincidental, long  time no see." There is no feeling found in the sentence, and the tone was  frosty.

 

Bitterly smiling and taking back the hand that is stiffly still in the air,  he mumbled incomprehensibly, "I have been looking for you for a long time."  It is really ridiculous. It seems that people only know how to cherish  something after losing it, only knowing the deep love after losing it. Only  when she left did he knew how much he had squandered her love. He waited  for more than a month in her hometown, but he didn’t get any news. He  looked for An Ran. An Ran also refused to say anything to him. He knew that  these were all his retribution. He had hurt her too deeply. He has no  complaints, as long as Lin Li can turn back and can forgive him again,  everything else is not important.

 

"Is that so?" Lin Li only looked back coldly and simply, not looking at  him. The force of the hand holding the bag revealed that her emotions at  the moment was not as calm as they were on the surface.

 

At this moment, Mo Fei took a step forward, said to An Ran, "An Ran, let's  go out first, let them talk."

 

An Ran looked at him and turned to look at Lin Li.

 

Lin Li knows that this will happen sooner or later. If she runs into him  today, she will not be able to avoid it forever. She only turned around and  faintly nodded towards An Ran.

 

Seeing this, An Ran only said, "I will be outside waiting for you." Then  looked at Cheng Xiang and turned and went straight out.

 

Mo Fei came out behind her, and they stood at the door of the restaurant.  They didn’t talk at first, just quietly watching the vehicles on the road.

 

There was a cool breeze blowing in the night, and people couldn't help but  feel a little cold. An Ran felt a little cold, she reached out and stroked  her bare arm.

 

Seeing this, Mo Fei standing on the side took off his suit jacket and  wanted to put it on her, but she avoided it. Only plainly saying, "No need,  thank you."

 

With a bitter smile, Mo Fei watching her asked, "As a friend, can't I even  add a layer of clothes for you?"

 

An Ran took a glance at him. "I am not used to wearing the clothes of  someone other than my husband."

 

As if something broke in his heart, each and every word sounded in his  ears, he looked at her for a while, and said slowly, "I understand." He no  longer qualifies to do this.

 

An Ran turned and looked at the front. It took a while before she said,  "Why did you do it?"

 

"What?" Mo Fei did not understand.

 

Turning her head and looking at his eyes, "Why steal my design plans?"
