But she will not compromise easily, and she will never marry Song Shijie unless she has to.
This is her responsibility to herself and to Doudou.
Squinting her eyes, the warm sunshine fell into her sad and cold eyes, dyeing them with a little warmth and light.
At twelve o'clock at noon, Cui Diyu rushed from her hometown to Meishi. Shang Wan picked her up from the station and went directly to the restaurant.
"Wan Wan, I will be supported by you from now on." Cui Diyu said boldly when they were in the car.
"I don't have the hobby of keeping women." She drove the car and gave him a sidelong look.
"I pay for the labor and you pay for it. This is the best way to support someone."
Shang Wan frowned: "Fortunately, you didn't say this to a man. If you said it to a man, he would definitely be misunderstood."
"I wouldn't say that to a man either," Cui Diyu said with a smile.
Then he added: "My mother asked me to bring a big bag of delicious food for you."
When he heard about eating, Shang Wan immediately lost his composure and his eyes lit up, "Really, the last delicious meal was sorted out a few days ago, so I just picked it up."
"Look at your bearish appearance. When you hear delicious food, it's like meeting your biological father." Cui Diyu shook her head helplessly.
Shang Wan raised his eyebrows: "I'm only happy when I see you eating."
Cui Diyu naturally knew what she meant. Ever since she found out about Tianyi's death, her world had been gray. The only way to forget her troubles was to eat delicious food.
But for such a dark topic, Cui Diyu didn't want to bother her by mentioning it, so she smiled and said.
"Every time I go home from now on, I will ask my mother to bring you delicious food to satisfy your craving."
"That's really a happy thing. It seems I did the right thing by asking you to come over." Shang Wan chuckled.
"That's for sure."
"Haha..." There was laughter in the carriage.
She could only laugh heartily when she was chatting with her best friend.
The two of them arrived at Yayuan Porridge City, which was the restaurant Shang Wan went to most after returning to Meishi. This restaurant tasted similar to the one in Nuanliu Porridge City in Hong Kong, so she loved it.
The two of them were still sitting in the hall, also at the window, with happy faces on their faces.
"Wanwan, this elegant garden has a similar style to Nuanliu."
"Well, the food tastes about the same. You must be used to it."
"Who can't get used to eating in a restaurant? If you don't get used to it, that's called inferiority." Cui Diyu narrowed her eyes and smiled.
Shang Wan glanced at her again, and the two of them had a conversation. The food was served in a moment, and they shared the dining table and chatted while eating.
"Shang Wan." A shout made Shang Wan raise his head.
"Song Shijie." Shang Wan shouted in surprise.
Song Shijie stood in front of their table dressed elegantly, his peach blossom eyes still sparkling.
"What a coincidence." Song Shijie smiled.
"Yes, it's quite a coincidence." Shang Wan agreed.
Song Shijie saw that she still had friends, but he said: "Whenever I have time, I want to talk to you."
When Shang Wan heard what he said, his father's words came to mind, and he frowned. After a few seconds, he responded: "In the evening! Let's have dinner together tonight. I happen to have something to talk to you about."
Song Shijie raised his eyebrows: "We have a good understanding. Let's call each other tonight."
"good."
"Then I won't disturb you anymore."
Song Shijie left as quickly as he appeared just now.
Cui Diyu looked at Shang Wan with a strange look: "The one with peach blossoms in his eyes just now seems to be interested in you."
Shang Wan shrugged: "You are really sharp-eyed."
"Anyone who is not blind can see it, Wan Wan, I found that your peach blossoms are still very strong, and your whole aura is different now. You are young and young."
Shang Wan immediately paused and glared at her displeased: "You mean I used to be very old?"
Cui Diyu frowned: "No, you looked weaker in the past."
She responded nonchalantly: "It's different now."
"That's right, you are the general manager now, so of course you must have a good mental outlook so that you can be competent."
"Hurry up and eat. I'll take you to your place later."
"You arranged it for me so quickly." Cui Diyu grinned.
"If we don't make arrangements first, will we let you sleep on the street?"
"Sure enough, it's different when you have a backer." Cui Diyu sighed.
"Let me tell you, you are not allowed to slip into the water at work, otherwise, let alone being a best friend."
Cui Diyu listened and gritted her teeth, "I know, you are restricted before you even start work. You are really suitable to be a capitalist."
Shang Wan gave her a smile as an answer.
A pleasant lunch was spent with the two of them laughing.
It was night, the glass was shining, and Mofu was bustling with excitement. Shang Wan and Song Shijie made an appointment to meet in Mofu at eight o'clock.
Song Shijie arrived at the box first, followed by Shang Wan. As soon as she walked in, Song Shijie greeted her with a smile.
"Shang Wan, you are so punctual."
Shang Wan just smiled: "But you were earlier than me."
"I just arrived, sit down!"
She put down her bag and sat on the sofa. Song Shijie was making tea. Watching him making tea, Shang Wan joked: "Song Shijie, I didn't expect you to be so elegant."
“The more you socialize in business, the more you learn.”
She hummed, and Song Shijie suddenly said, "I heard that you were kidnapped a while ago?"
Shang Wan smiled and said: "Yes, but luckily I escaped."
"Have you found out who did it?"
Song Shijie asked questions while doing it. The procedures were in order, including washing the tea leaves, rolling the cups, and then brewing the cups.
"Not yet, because I can't see the faces of the kidnappers clearly." Shang Wan sighed.
"I was not in Meishi when something happened to you. If I had been, I would have found out those people." Song Shijie raised his eyes and glanced at Shang Wan.
Shang Wan smiled, "Leave this kind of matter to the police!"
"The police are too pedantic in their work and it is difficult to detect."
There was disdain in his tone.
Shang Wan didn't want to continue this topic, but got back to the topic.
"You asked me out tonight, what do you want to tell me?"
"Drink tea." Song Shijie made tea.
Shang Wan had no choice but to pick up a cup, put it between his nose, sniffed it gently, and instantly felt refreshed. He then put it to his lips and took a sip.
Sweet and refreshing.
"It's really good tea." She praised it.
"This is Longjing before the rain."
"No wonder it tastes so good."
After finishing a cup, Shang Wan put down the cup.
Song Shijie filled the cup again, but said: "Your father called me today. Now the Shang family is facing difficulties and hopes we can help, but my mother seems to have put forward conditions."
"Don't you have any objections to the conditions proposed by your mother?" Shang Wan asked, tilting his head.
At this time, Song Shijie put down the clay pot in his hand and raised his head to stare.
"Shang Wan, actually I like my current life very much. It's romantic and happy, and I don't know how comfortable it is, so I don't want to change this situation."
Shang Wan frowned, what he meant was that he disagreed with Lu Haifen, but why did his father say that Song Shijie had no objection.
The next update may be late. Let’s check it out tomorrow!
