Chapter 517: Envy
Wen Lan felt that as long as he came to Jiangcheng once, Jiang Jingci would be pervasive.
When Zhou Qiao ordered a meal, there was no single room, and the two chose a window seat in the public dining area, but to Wen Lan's disgust, Jiang Jingci and Song Yun actually sat diagonally opposite them.
Although there is a partition between the tables, if you are attentive, you can see the diners at the nearest table and hear each other's conversations.
The seat Wen Lan was sitting on was exactly opposite Jiang Jingci, and no matter which of them raised their eyes, they could see it.
Even if she didn't raise her eyes, she could feel Jiang Jingci's meaningful gaze.
She switched seats with Zhou Qiao.
"It's a coincidence, Lao Jiang returned to China and let us meet him on his first blind date." Zhou Qiao chuckled while looking at his phone.
Wen Lan lowered his voice and asked, "How do you know that person is his blind date?"
"Lao Jiang just sent me WeChat-" Zhou Qiao's voice was very small, and he said as he put the lit phone screen under Wen Lan's nose.
Wen Lan immediately pushed the phone back to Zhou Qiao, "Don't look at it."
"Lao Jiang also asked me how I felt about Professor Song, how should I answer?" Zhou Qiao picked up his mobile phone and made a mistake when he was about to reply.
"Gentle and virtuous, IKEA IKEA." Wen Lan blurted out.
I don't know why, Ming Ming Jiang Jingci settled in Australia, but Wen Lan was always at ease.
Maybe when Jiang Jingci marries again, she will be able to face the past calmly.
"I've had two marriages, the first of three and a half years, and you've probably heard of it. The second marriage was only a little over a month, and although it was short, I still haven't come out of my second marriage." Jiang Jingci's profound voice clearly came into Wen Lan's ears.
Wen Lan heard harshly.
If she hadn't heard this, she would have forgotten that she had a marriage with Jiang Jingci.
"It's all the old things from my previous life, and I still have to bring it out!" Zhou Qiao glanced in the direction of Jiang Jingci and pouted, "Talking about this with the blind date I just met, I don't know if Lao Jiang has low emotional intelligence or deliberately."
Wen Lan pretended to be calm, unhurriedly picked up the pasta on the plate and ate it.
"Mr. Jiang looks like a long-term lover, but he hasn't met a woman who can live a peaceful life." Song Yun's warm voice dyed a smile.
Wen Lan's self-esteem was hit hard in an instant.
Song Yun said she was a restless woman, was she?
"The falling flowers are intentional, but the flowing water is ruthless, and I won't force it in the future if it doesn't belong to me." Jiang Jingci deliberately raised his voice a few degrees.
Then there was Song Yun's tender whisper, and Wen Lan didn't hear what he said.
Wen Lan had no appetite, and before the food he ordered was finished, he said that he was full, and came out of the restaurant to the parking lot.
Ten minutes later, Zhou Qiao chased down with the packed lunch box, "I know you haven't eaten enough, go back to TT and continue eating."
On the way back to TT, Wen Lan smiled and asked Zhou Qiao, "Professor Song said that I am a restless woman, am I?"
"Didn't you see that the woman surnamed Song was licking Jiang Jingci to death?" Zhou Qiao looked disdainful, "If you want to make a good impression on Jiang Jingci, you naturally have to spare no effort to step on you a few times."
"That's right." Wen Lan adjusted his comfortable sitting position, "With Jiang Jingci's financial resources, there will be a few women who are not blushing."
"Just wait and see, the surname Song is no play." The corners of Zhou Qiao's lips twitched, "If you want me to say, Lao Jiang got her out in order to brush up on her presence in front of you."
"I hate Jiang Jingci, but I still hope that he can find a woman to marry as soon as possible." Wen Lan said sincerely.
"After all, apart from the fact that you took Nuan Nuan off the bag, you still feel guilty about him." Zhou Qiao didn't know that Jiang Jingci had violated Wen Lan, and said stupidly, "You set fire to Jiang Jingci's house and cut Jiang Jingci's neck with a porcelain piece, and in the end he let you go."
"The grievances between me and Jiang Jingci can't be explained in a few words." Wen Lan closed his eyes and pressed his forehead.
What Wen Lan didn't expect was that after Xie Yansheng took the three children back to the old mansion this time, the relationship between Xie Yansheng and Old Man Xie began to break the ice.
Thank you, sir
At the beginning, I went to Beijing once a month, and after arriving at Tinglan Mansion, I didn't stay long, and I talked to the children for an hour before leaving.
Wen Lan was very resistant to Old Man Xie's arrival, but he had to endure it for the sake of thanking the banquet.
As long as Old Man Xie came to Tinglan Mansion, she would hide out.
By the end of the year, Mr. Xie came to Beijing more often, and during the Chinese New Year, Xie Yansheng took his three children to the old house.
Wen Lan had a shadow in his heart and stayed in Yunshen City.
In the past six months, Shen Yi fought two lawsuits with Xie Jianning in order to fight for Xiaotong's custody, and finally ended with Xie Jianning's victory.
At the first trial, Shen Yi entrusted Jiang Jingci to find Qiu Ping as a lawyer, and Xie Jianning was afraid of losing the lawsuit, so he took Xiaotong to Tinglan Mansion to ask Xie Yansheng for help.
Xie Yansheng didn't want to do much, so he let Jian Ning eat two closed doors in a row, Wen Lan couldn't stand it anymore, and proposed to let Xie Yansheng help Jian Ning, and Xie Yansheng came forward to ask Yang Huian to be Jian Ning's lawyer.
The two lawsuits, from the beginning to the final verdict, made Xie Jianning more and more determined to take Xiaotong well.
Wen Lan lived in Beijing for the fifth year, and ushered in a great news-
Zhou Qiao married Zhuang Xiubai!
Because he didn't see Zhou Qiao much, how Zhuang Xiubai chased Zhou Qiao, Wen Lan didn't know.
When chatting on the phone, every time Wen Lan asked Zhou Qiao this question, Zhou Qiao either kept silent or changed the topic.
On the day of Zhou Qiao's wedding, Wen Lan returned to Jiangcheng with Nuan Nuan, and Nuan Nuan became a flower girl.
Before the wedding banquet began, Zhou Qiao changed her dress and didn't want others to interfere, so she directly called Wen Lan into the dressing room, and Wen Lan found that Zhou Qiao's lower abdomen had risen slightly.
"It turned out that I got on the bus first and paid the ticket later." Wen Lan was sincerely happy and relieved for Zhuang Xiubai.
"It was a pure accident." Zhou Qiao's hand fell on his lower abdomen and stroked gently, "Marrying Zhuang Xiubai, I just want to give him a home."
"Dr. Zhuang has been waiting for you for so many years, this is chilling!" Wen Lan said as she tied the straps on the back of her dress.
"Zhuang Xiubai didn't say anything to me, but the first person in my heart is always Zhao Huan." Zhou Qiao stretched his face and smiled melancholy, "Jiang Jingci is still alone, and he has been waiting for you for many years, don't you have no feelings for him!"
When Wen Lan heard the name of "Jiang Jingci", a layer of gloom immediately appeared on his face.
Since that meeting in the Western restaurant four years ago, she has never seen Jiang Jingci again.
thought that he would wait for the news of Jiang Jingci and Song Yun's marriage, but Zhou Qiao inadvertently revealed that the two broke up after less than two months of dating.
Jiang Jingqi does not get married, and she will not be able to live in the dark.
Seeing that she fell silent, Zhou Qiao said again: "I wasn't optimistic about Xie Yansheng at all, and I always hoped that Jiang Jingci could become your beloved. But you and Xie Yansheng still went through twists and turns, and they have achieved positive results, and God treats you well. Lan Lan, you have not only got love, but also have three lovely children, I am envious from the bottom of my heart."
"Don't envy me, because what Xie Yansheng can give me, Dr. Zhuang can also give you." Wen Lan comforted softly.
