Li Shuang was stunned. No matter how slow she was, she could sense that something was wrong. “What happened to you today? Did you have a fight with Xu Baohan?”
An Lan rubbed the s.p.a.ce between her brows. “He lied to me about into accompanying his ex-girlfriend while she got an IV drip treatment.”
Li Shuang’s mouth fell wide open. After a while, she slammed the table. “d.a.m.n, I thought he was thoughtful and considerate the other day when he made breakfast for you. He’s too cheap. If I were you, I would break his bones.”
“His ex-girlfriend must have a fever.” An Lan sighed. “I asked Doctor Han. The medicine on the bill in his trouser pocket is for fever and inflammation.”
“Then what do you plan to do?” Li Shuang asked. “Do you want me to introduce you to a private detective? He’s very professional and skilled.”
“…”
An Lan coughed lightly, “There’s no need for that. We’re not married yet. Actually, I have a general understanding. Xu Baohan is a responsible man. He may look cold, but he’s actually a soft person inside. I guess his ex-girlfriend must have gotten close to him on purpose. I’m angry and sad because he still doesn’t know what’s going on and even lied to me for that woman.”
Li Shuang sneered, “Men usually lie because they have a guilty conscience. An Lan, I believe in you. You will definitely find that little b.i.t.c.h and give her a good beating.”
“What’s the use of torturing her sometimes?” An Lan muttered, “A man’s heart can be seduced. It can only be said that he is not strong-willed. Even if he is not seduced today, he will be seduced sooner or later. However, it is only a matter of time. I don’t want to fight for it, but if someone dares to bully me, I will definitely not let her off easily.”
“An Lan, I don’t think the two of you should consider getting married for now,” Li Shuang said after some thought, “You’ve waited for so many years, there’s no need for you to be so hard on yourself. If the worst comes to worst, you can just wait a little longer. Married life is different from living alone, it will be even more difficult, especially after having children. If your relations.h.i.+p isn’t stable, it will be even more painful after marriage. Frankly speaking, even though Xu Baohan is very good-looking and his job isn’t bad, he might be a unicorn in our eyes, but you aren’t bad either. You have money, a house, a car, a company, and looks, and all of these were obtained by yourself. With such an ident.i.ty, you are much more outstanding thanmany men.”
“I know.” An Lan smiled.
…
After Li Shuang left, when An Lan was about to go out in the afternoon, Yan Wen had just received a bouquet of flowers from the door.
“This is from Tang Zheng again?” An Lan asked.
“Yes.” Yan Wen felt a little guilty. After all, An Lan had asked her to shred the flowers. She felt that they were too beautiful and couldn’t bear to part with them.
An Lan raised her eyebrows and took a card from it. “I remember that Tang Zheng left a business card last time. Bring me the card.”
“Yes, you should make a phone call and make it clear. It’s not a good idea to always send flowers like this.” Yan Wen nodded and quickly found the business card for her.
After An Lan got into the car, she directly dialed Tang Zheng’s number. “I’m An Lan.”
“Oh, Lawyer An, the sun has risen from the west. You actually took the initiative to contact me. Why, are you finally moved by my flowers?” Tang Zheng’s giggling voice could be heard.
“Let’s have dinner together tonight. I have something to talk to you about,” An Lan said with a faint smile. “It’s not about romance, it’s about your ex-girlfriend.”
After the phone went silent for a while, Tang Zheng’s voice suddenly turned cold. “What, could it be that she went to look for Xu Baohan?”
“I like to talk in person,” An Lan said.
“Okay.” Tang Zheng immediately made an appointment with her.
The two of them met at a high-end, elegant western-style restaurant.
