182 Ye Tingshen was forced to get engaged to her
Zhong Nian's whole body became short of breath, and she quickly turned her head and looked away.
She was afraid that she would not be able to control herself if she continued to look at it.
But despite this, those ambiguous kiss marks seemed to have taken root in her mind, and they kept appearing, as if to remind her how much love the two people she cared about were, and she couldn't get rid of them.
Lu Qinglan didn't know that those unintentionally exposed kiss marks stimulated Zhong Nian, and when he saw her uncomfortable appearance, no matter how careless he was, he felt that something was wrong with her.
"Niannian, do you have something on your mind?" Pushing away the plate in front of him, Lu Qinglan habitually reached over and touched her hand, just like before, "Can't you tell me?" But you said it before, we are friends with fate, and we can't hide something from each other. β
Although she and Zhong Nian have only known each other for less than a year, their feelings of not knowing each other are no less than those between her and Jiang Ran.
In the final analysis, the friends she cares about the most are Zhong Nian and Jiang Ranran, and she doesn't want to see her friends depressed and worried.
The word friend sensitively poked Zhong Nian's heart, she suddenly remembered what the woman said that night, and the scales in her heart began to tilt, and she was very distressed.
One is the one she cares about the most and the only friend of the same sex, and the other is the man she put in her heart at the first sight of the military school, she never dreamed that she would participate in the engagement of these two.
Is it really a double betrayal?
She didn't know, her heart was very messy, and she still couldn't accept it to this day.
It's not that I haven't thought about wishing the two of them happiness generously, but the words that the woman said are like a thorn in her chest, and every time I think of it, I go deeper and the pain is unbearable.
"Niannian?" Lu Qinglan was anxious, so he simply sat down beside her, "What's going on?" Tell me, I'm dying if you don't speak! β
Zhong Nian has always had the same hearty personality as boys, and she is a natural optimist, so she is so full of worries, in Lu Qinglan's opinion, there is undoubtedly something big wrong.
"It's really okay," Zhong Nian didn't want Lu Qinglan to know what she was thinking, and before she figured out how to face the two of them next, she didn't want to be seen, so she forced herself to smile and find a reason to listen to the past, "Didn't you say it just now, I didn't sleep well last night, and I just transferred to A University, so it's a little uncomfortable." β
"That's it?" Lu Qinglan was suspicious.
"That's it!" Afraid that she would be suspicious, Zhong Nian nodded heavily.
Lu Qinglan didn't look like she was lying, so she believed it, but she still told her not to hide something.
Zhong Nian chatted absentmindedly for a few words, and finally made up his mind to ask: "Why did you never tell me that your fiancΓ© is the fourth brother?" β
When she asked, there was a very faint smile on the corner of her mouth, it looked like she was asking casually, but in her heart, she was already nervous to death, she stared at Lu Qinglan intently, afraid of hearing the answer, but she was extremely expectant, and she was very contradictory.
Lu Qinglan blinked, and the smile in it was about to overflow: "I really didn't expect you to know each other, if I had known earlier, I would have been the first to tell you." β
"Really?" Zhong Nian asked to himself, his voice was very low, and Lu Qinglan didn't hear it, "What did you say?" β
"No ......" Zhong Nian shook her head, her hanging left hand was inexplicably a little painful, and after a long time, she asked again, as if she was tempting, "By the way, you and the fourth brother, you, how did you start?" β
At the mention of this, Lu Qinglan blushed a little, she only told Jiang Ran at that time that the two of them were caused by a night of romance, Zhong Nian didn't know, but now that she was asked like this, she mentioned it vaguely, even so, when she finished speaking, her face was already so red that she could drip blood.
Zhong Nian's hand holding the cup tightened suddenly, and at this moment she only had that sentence in her mind, Ye Tingshen and her engagement were forced to be a last resort.
Such thoughts come together, and they can't be recovered.
She felt that she was stunned, and at the same time, she was suffering from self-harm in her heart and couldn't get out, not at all like her former self.
She began to think crankily until Ye Tingshen's figure appeared in her sight.
Ye Tingshen had just finished a dinner and wanted to go back to the office directly, but Xu Cheng told him that he saw Qinglan in the hall and decided to say a few words to her before leaving, but he didn't expect to meet Zhong Nian here.
He walked straight over, naturally hugged Lu Qinglan's waist, and asked Zhong Nian with a smile: "Are you back?" Is it going well over there? Where do you live now? β
"Fourth brother......" Zhong Nian wanted to call him happily like before, but the fact is that she was very sad to see the two together, and she couldn't squeeze out a reluctant smile, but she didn't dare to show it, because she knew that she couldn't hide anything from her fourth brother's eyes, "The school has an apartment, I live there, and it's also smooth in A University, don't you worry?" β
Ye Tingshen smiled, thought about it, it seemed that he was really worried about himself, Zhong Nian could get along anywhere, and he would not suffer in temperament, not to mention that the years in the military academy were not in vain.
Zhong Nian couldn't stay a little longer, she was afraid that if she stayed for another second, she would show her feet, so she hurriedly found an excuse: "Lanlan, fourth brother, there is something to do at school in the afternoon, I have to leave first." β
After saying that, she didn't wait for them to answer and turned around and left, still a little embarrassed in the end.
She needed someone to think about it.
However, not long after she left the restaurant, she bumped into a person head-on.
"Is that you?" Zhong Nian looked at the woman in front of him vigilantly, the same person who had said so much in the bar that night.
Ling smiled slightly, elegantly pinned her hair to the back of her head, glanced at the direction where Zhong Nian came, pulled her lips and smiled: "It's me, let's talk?" β
She had already studied Zhong Nian's information, so she was looking forward to what she was going to do next.
"Let's go, you won't regret it, and I won't do anything to you."
Restaurant.
Lu Qinglan recalled Zhong Nian's expression today, and was always a little worried: "Ting Shen, I always feel that Nian Nian has something on her mind, she wasn't like this before. β
"Yes." Ye Tingshen nodded in agreement, what Zhong Nian's temperament was, he knew very well, he had also discovered this just now.
"I asked her what was wrong, and she just said she hadn't slept well." Lu Qinglan frowned, thinking of what Zhong Nian had mentioned to her at that time, so he asked, "Could it be because of a crush?" β
"Crush?" Ye Tingshen raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised.
"Well, Nian Nian said that the biggest reason why she was transferred to City A was because the person she liked was here, what if it really had something to do with it?"
"Let's find time to find out." Ye Tingshen comforted her, "Nian Nian has always been careful and measured, don't worry too much, she can handle it." β
When the words fell, he took her hand and put it on his chest, deliberately frowning, looking very aggrieved: "Qinglan, can you care about me occasionally?" β
Lu Qinglan glanced at him, secretly funny, thought about it, and deliberately asked, "Little uncle, is this jealous?" β
"Isn't it obvious what I'm saying?" Someone hugged her waist closer to herself, and slowly began to complain for herself, "You see, since you came back from C City, your focus is either Jiang Dye or work, and now you are thinking about it, and it has only been engaged for a few days, and I have been left behind?" β
Ye Tingshen looked resentful, like a concubine who had been left out in the cold, Lu Qinglan couldn't help it, and laughed out loud.
"Hey, I can't do it anymore." She laughed happily, and finally straightened her waist with Ye Tingshen's support, and after relieving herself, she held his face and stared deeply, "Tingshen, I'm sorry, I've ignored you recently." β
During this period of time, she did ignore Ye Tingshen a lot, and she was embarrassed and promised at the same time: "Not after that, okay?" β
Ye Tingshen didn't speak, and directly gave her a long and burning kiss.
Lu Qinglan couldn't break free, and after a kiss, he blushed and looked at him with disgust: "Mayor Ye is not afraid of being seen?" β
Ye Ting smiled deeply and said nothing, and hugged her for a while before leaving.
Lu Qinglan, who returned to Ruishang, was in a good mood, but when he went to the bathroom, he found that the buttons of his shirt were opened at some point, and a kiss mark on his collarbone was very eye-catching.
She was so embarrassed that she hurriedly buttoned the buttons, and when she was about to go out, she suddenly heard Xia Xinting's slightly suppressed phone call.
"I know, I'll figure it out! Don't push me anymore, okay? I'll punch in the money by next Monday, so be it! β
The voice was irritable and seemed distressed, while the muffled voice clearly didn't want to be heard.
Lu Qinglan hesitated for a while, and before he could think about how to open his mouth when he went out, he heard the door of the bathroom being opened, and then Xia Xinting's footsteps became farther and farther away.
When she returned to the office, she subconsciously glanced at Xia Xinting in front of the computer, still smiling as before, as if what had just happened was an illusion.
When he was about to get off work, Lu Qinglan saw the leave request form handed over by Xia Xinting, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Xiao Xia, is there something wrong?" β
Xia Xinting looked a little absent-minded, her mouth closed one by one, and finally lowered her head and said sullenly: "I, my brother is hospitalized, no one has been watching for a long time, I don't worry." β
Lu Qinglan didn't know that she had a younger brother, thinking of what she heard in the bathroom, she readily agreed: "Okay, you go, if you need to tell me, I'll help as much as I can." β
Although she doesn't have a younger brother, she was sick when she was a child, and Su Yuan would be very anxious, so she could understand.
"Sister Lan......" Xia Xinting bit her lip, she didn't know what to say, her heart was numb, and suddenly, she didn't dare to meet the sincere eyes of the person in front of her, "Thank you, Sister Lan, then, then I'll go out first." β
"Yes, go ahead." Lu Qinglan nodded and handed her the signed leave form, "You can give the leave form to the personnel department before you get off work." β
After signing the leave form, putting away the table, and when it was time to get off work, Lu Qinglan packed up his things and punched the card and went downstairs.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she left the building, she saw a person she didn't want to see.
