Chapter 873: Chapter 581: Desolate Feelings, Fleeting Words, Enduring Love (Part 7)
Lu Yinchu had no other option but to send a car to pick up Lan Qiqi and Yang Su to Yipin Residence, where he ordered them breakfast.
After arranging everything, Lu Yinchu left!
A man’s got no place eavesdropping on women’s conversations!
Plus, he had some work to do, so he instructed Xia Yu to wait by the door of the private room, not to leave even a step, and call him immediately if anything happened!
Xia Yu obeyed!
During breakfast, Nanxi asked Yang Su, “Tell us, what’s on your mind…?”
Yang Su’s eyes flickered, and she said, “I don’t have many thoughts, at most, it’s just ‘I’m sorry.’ Zhang Mu’s feelings for me are quite deep, but I just can’t pick them up. I find myself quite foolish. All these years, I’ve treated Zhang Mu as a buddy, but Zhang Mu saw me as a woman. I really don’t know how this relationship lasted so long…”
Nanxi frowned and asked, “What about Chang Linsheng?”
Yang Su pursed her lips and said nothing.
Nanxi saw this and had a rough idea of what was going on!
…
At the reunion dinner, neither Zhang Mu nor Bai Yuchuan attended, and Yan Chenqing explained that Bai Yuchuan was with Zhang Mu!
Nanxi was worried. She previously anticipated that Yang Su, Chang Linsheng, and Zhang Mu would eventually have emotional conflicts, but she didn’t expect it to happen so soon!
She found a moment to tell Lu Yinchu about it and asked him what to do now!
She thought since Lu Yinchu was so capable, he would certainly have a better solution, but Lu Yinchu just said she was worrying too much!
Nanxi was quite upset and retorted, “What do you mean I’m worrying too much? Lu Yinchu, how can you be so irresponsible? Back when you and I weren’t together, Susu even called you to give you a heads-up… Chang Linsheng is your good brother, how can you just ignore him?”
Seeing the little girl angry, Lu Yinchu sighed, reached out to hug her. Nanxi tried to push him away but didn’t succeed, finally stopped struggling, but still showed a stern face towards him!
Lu Yinchu said, “Nanxi, if it’s your friend who’s in trouble and you asked me to help, I’d do it without hesitation, but now, these emotional entanglements, to be honest, not only me, but you too, shouldn’t interfere too much. Firstly, if you interfere, you’ll inevitably lean towards one side, then tell me, do you want me to match her with Asheng or with Zhang Mu?”
“…” Nanxi blinked her eyes, unable to speak.
“More importantly, this issue hinges on who’s in Yang Su’s heart. Yang Su and Zhang Mu have known each other for years, she feels guilty for hurting him, that’s normal. Just like you did with Weihuan back then, didn’t you feel the same? And your situation was much more complicated than Yang Su’s, yet you made it through, why can’t Yang Su? You must trust her!”
“But…”
“No ‘buts’!” Lu Yinchu reassured, “The most important thing now is the child inside you! And the child’s father, me! Also, believe that setbacks make one grow, let them navigate through this bump in their relationship on their own, only then will they gain true happiness, unblemished happiness, understand?”
Nanxi pouted and said, “You always find a way to justify yourself! I can’t argue with you…”
“If you can’t argue, then don’t speak, there are other things you can do with your mouth…” The man finished, his thin lips pressed against hers, sealing a deep kiss…
…
For two whole days, Yang Su didn’t see Zhang Mu or Chang Linsheng.
The days passed empty and calm.
But she didn’t expect to receive a call from her former studio boss!
Yang Su’s boss was named Yu Lun, and in Yang Su’s eyes, he was quite the young talent.
Though not excessively handsome, his features were well-proportioned, aligning well with general aesthetic standards!
Yang Su had been back in H City for only a few days and hadn’t reached out to former colleagues, as she had left abruptly and rudely back then without a word.
But how did Yu Lun know she was back?
Truly puzzling!
Yu Lun said there was an end-of-year studio colleague gathering that night and that since she used to be part of the studio, she should attend now that she’s back.
He even said that colleagues missed her!
Yang Su couldn’t refuse.
At five in the afternoon, Yang Su left the house and arrived at the designated restaurant’s private room around 5:40.
Seeing her colleagues was not awkward; they hugged and greeted each other, which warmed Yang Su’s heart significantly.
During the event, when Yang Su excused herself to the restroom, she went to the counter intending to pay the bill—guilty for her unannounced departure, she felt this meal should be on her!
But the staff at the counter told her the bill had already been settled!
Yang Su checked the records and saw that Yu Lun was the one who paid!
…
Things went on until about 7:30; as everyone left the restaurant, Yu Lun said he had booked a spot at a nearby karaoke place for everyone to sing.
Once they arrived, they found it quite upscale, prompting some colleagues to jokingly remark to Yu Lun, “Boss, you really spent a lot today!”
Yu Lun laughed, “If you feel bad, work harder next year!”
“Yes, sir, Yu!”
With one sentence, everyone laughed!
Yang Su didn’t expect to see Chang Linsheng, but then, as colleagues were bustling into a private room at the entrance, she stood at the back and glimpsed Chang Linsheng entering another private room not far away with a tall and beautiful woman!
The private room’s door closed, and Yang Su’s heart quivered fiercely.
“Susu?”
“Huh?” Yang Su snapped back to reality!
“Why aren’t you moving?”
“Oh, it’s nothing! Let’s go!” Yang Su smiled and said to Yu Lun.
Inside, colleagues had already started singing, seeing Yang Su and Yu Lun entering one after the other, they teased, “Boss, Susu, why were you two dawdling outside? What were you doing out there?”
“Yeah, what were you doing?” someone chimed in!
“I must say, you two really make a great pair, why not get together already? What do you all say? Huh?”
“I agree!” “I concur!” “I wholeheartedly agree!” “Good idea!” everyone chimed in all at once…
Yang Su blushed, and Yu Lun appeared a bit awkward, clearing his throat before speaking, “You all better behave, or I’ll dock your year-end bonuses!”
“Oh, boss, you aren’t being fair, we’re helping you, and yet you’re threatening to dock our bonuses!”
“Yeah, yeah. Boss, that’s not fair!”
“Pssh, what do you know, the boss is just shy…”
“Haha, shy…”
“Boss, you like Susu, don’t you?”
“Of course he does, look at the boss’s face…”
“Together, together…”
“Together, together, together…”
“…”
Yang Su looked at everyone, took a deep breath, and loudly announced, “Sorry everyone, I already have a boyfriend!”
