Chapter 54: Reminiscing with the Ex
Their eyes were on the same for a moment, Wen Nanzhi nodded to Lu Ning a little stiffly, and Lu Ning also smiled back, although it was very shallow.
When the rivals in love met, there was no red-eyed and no tearing, which disappointed some people who wanted to see the excitement.
"Come, let's raise a glass ......". The young man who was called the squad leader by Shen Can just now, he raised his glass, but he was interrupted halfway through his words.
"No, there's still one person missing."
"Who?" The squad leader deliberately glanced at it.
"Sheng Jingchen".
As soon as these words came out, someone's eyes immediately focused on Wen Nanzhi's body, and Wen Nanzhi did not avoid it, and still sat upright.
"Did you get the notice?"
"I informed, but now that he is in charge of such a big company, there must be a lot of things, I should have forgotten it, we won't wait for him, if he comes later, let him punish himself three times." The squad leader was afraid that Wen Nanzhi and Lu Ning would be embarrassed, so he was in a hurry to skip this topic.
"You shouldn't ask the squad leader about this." Ni Yao spoke at the right time.
"Who do you ask?" Several people spoke in unison,
"Ni Yao, shut up." Seeing that Ni Yao was about to make waves again, Shen Can gave a warning.
"Say it quickly". Someone urged.
Ni Yao didn't seem to hear Shen Can's words, she hooked the corners of her mouth proudly, and was about to speak, but was stopped by Lu Ning.
"Don't listen to her". Lu Ning's words dispelled everyone's curiosity.
"What?" Complaints abounded.
Seeing this, the squad leader patted the edge of the table and raised his glass again: "Come, let me toast to the reunion after five years."
"Cheers".
……
"Why don't you let me say that?!" After a glass of wine, Ni Yao muttered in Lu Ning's ear dissatisfied.
"It's all in the past." Lu Ning still has that calm and breezy appearance.
"What is it going to be?"
"How much does this affect you?! If it weren't for her, would you hide abroad? ”
"God really doesn't have long eyes, obviously she is the one who stepped in, but now she is proud."
"I know you're doing it for my good, but it's useless to say that now." Lu Ning shook Ni Yao's hand gratefully, and then, while picking up the vegetables, she inadvertently looked at Wen Nanzhi, and a trace of complexity flashed in her eyes.
"I'll go to the bathroom". Halfway, Lu Ning talked to Ni Yao.
"I'll go with you". Ni Yao immediately put down her chopsticks.
"No need, you can eat".
"I'll be right back". After saying that, she picked up her leather bag and walked out of the box.
Wen Nanzhi paid attention to Lu Ning, saw her go out, and wanted to follow, but he didn't have the courage.
"Yes or no......". Lu Ning lowered her head, closed the door, only took a step, and hit someone head-on, she looked up, and subconsciously wanted to apologize, but the moment she saw the other party's face, she paused.
"Sheng Jingchen". Spit out the name in his lips and teeth, and Lu Ning choked up a little.
They hadn't seen each other for five years, thousands of long nights, and she had dreamed of Sheng Jingchen countless times, so she was no stranger to such deep eyebrows.
"Hmm". Sheng Jingchen responded lightly, even a little detached.
Before coming, he also thought about what kind of mood it would be to meet Lu Ning? But he didn't expect it to be so calm.
At this moment, Lu Ning seemed like a stranger to him, even when he saw her red eyes, his heart did not fluctuate at all.
"How have you been doing for the past few years?" The atmosphere was a little stiff, and Lu Ning spoke first to break it.
"Very good". Sheng Jingchen's sentence, I don't know if it is describing his married life?
"Oh". Lu Ning was a little disappointed, but there was still a slight smile on her face, she raised her head slightly, and stared at Sheng Jingchen with affection.
"It's a mess inside, if you're not in a hurry, let's go over there and talk?"
"I ......". Sheng Jingchen just wanted to refuse, but Lu Ning didn't give him a chance.
"What? You don't want to keep your distance from me, do you? ”
"Even if it's an old friend, I haven't seen each other for so many years, shouldn't I catch up?" After speaking, Lu Ning turned around first, she walked through the corridor and went directly to the terrace.
Sheng Jingchen hesitated, but in the end he chose to follow.
The terrace is large in size and has seating on it, which is a smoking area for guests.
"Is there any smoke?" Lu Ning held on to the railing, closed his eyes and took a deep breath before turning around and asking.
Sheng Jingchen furrowed his eyebrows, but he didn't ask Lu Ning when he learned to smoke? Because, it has nothing to do with him anymore.
"Yes". He pulled a cigarette case out of his pocket and handed it over.
"Thank you". Lu Ning knocked out a light and lit it, and his movements were skillful, and it seemed that he had learned it for a long time.
"I didn't bring cigarettes, so I won't return this." Lu Ning shook the cigarette case in his hand, and there was a rare hint of naughtiness in his expression.
"Do you know when I learned to smoke?" She was very comfortable mentioning it.
Sheng Jingchen shook his head, he was not interested in this topic and did not care.
"I guess it's been a week abroad."
"At that time, I was unfamiliar with life, and the pressure was really great, and there were ......."
"And ...... I miss you so much that I can't sleep all night, so I just try to smoke to get by." Lu Ning smiled bitterly, but she didn't dare to look at Sheng Jingchen's expression, she was afraid that if she didn't get a response, she would not be able to stand it, and she was afraid that she would get a response, and she regretted her decision even more.
