Chapter 269 - Unexpected Meeting III
As Jiang Ruolan walked out of the showroom, a figure walked towards her. It was Wan Shoushan.
He was holding a bucket of KFC chicken and two bottles of mineral water. He pushed the water bottle into her hand and motioned for her to sit down.
At this time, Jiang Ruolan was in no mood to think about anything else, nor did she have the appet.i.te to eat. She just smiled, took a sip of the mineral water, and watched Wan Shoushan give that bucket to her co-worker. When having a good leader like this, this leader was often squeezed by all kinds of exploitation.
Jiang Ruolan took the mineral water with her and turned to leave, but she only took a few steps before Wan Shoushan chased after her.
Jiang Ruolan didn"t want to take a taxi or take the bus since her residence wasn"t far from here. She took another two sips of water and continued walking back to her house. She wanted to be alone, but it seemed fate didn"t let her.
Wan Shoushan followed from behind silently. After a while, Jiang Ruolan sighed and turned her head to look at him. "Big Brother Wan? Why are you following me?"
Wan Shoushan smiled. "You"ve finally discovered my existence?"
"Uh.. thought you were going home too, but now that you"re following me, why didn"t you say anything?"
"I"m waiting for you to lose your temper with me."
Jiang Ruolan found it funny. "Why should I be angry at you?"
Wan Shoushan laughed frankly, "Don"t you women always like to vent your anger on people? Besides, you"ve resigned for more than six months and once you return to the company, you are surrounded with all this gossip. I think you should at least find someone to vent your anger."
As he spoke, he pointed to the pa.s.sing taxis and asked, "Would you like to have dinner with me?"
Jiang Ruolan grinned and said half-jokingly, "I heard from Xie Mei that Brother Wan had just returned from abroad. As soon as you came home, you invited me to eat. You made me feel too flattered ~"
"When you resigned, I thought I"d never see you again. This is a rare reunion, so I wanted to show you some face."
"Alright, then let"s go eat hotpot." Jiang Ruolan no longer rejected him and made a suggestion.
Wan Shoushan just smiled and both of them went to a hotpot restaurant together. They both spend time in the hotpot restaurant by recalling memories of the past. Jiang Ruolan smiled and laughed a lot that night. Her mind was no longer being shackled by Xian Zihao.

On Sunday, Jiang Ruolan went to the hospital to check on her body before being called to the coffee shop by Yi Meixiu.
Yi Meixiu and her new boyfriend were going to get married next month. Jiang Ruolan could not persuade them to think about this deeply, especially since they had already reached their marriage age. Besides, it was better for them to get married to avoid anything bad from happening.
Therefore, Jiang Ruolan could only bless them and hope their marriage would last long and wouldn"t be like hers.
After leaving the coffee shop, Jiang Ruolan decided to take a walk around the park. The doctor said that she needs to occasionally walk in the sun because of her unstable fetus. However, as soon as she arrived at the park, she saw couples holding hands or walking together, even the chairs under the tree were filled with couples playing with each other sweetly.
Strange, when did this happen?
"What day is today?" Jiang Ruolan asked herself.
When the watch showed 11:40 am, Jiang Ruolan really could not continue anymore. Spending her weekend by watching couples acting intimately was really not on her list. Their intimate actions made her eyes blind.
She was f*cking refusing to walk around!
Jiang Yijun was able to support her life now. He will usually leave his credit card with her. Jiang Ruolan took his credit card and thought for a moment. Since Jiang Yijun had given her this card, she better spend it, otherwise, when he married his wife in the future, she probably wouldn"t be able to get this chance anymore. Thus, she braced herself and went to the shopping mall.
The feeling of going shopping alone was really indescribable. Jiang Ruolan flipped through the contact list on her phone and didn"t know who to contact. Who will have the patience and time to accompany her shopping or listening to her complain?
Jiang Ruolan sighed. "Forget it. Just go home already."
Jiang Ruolan walked home with a cold wind blowing around her and she couldn"t help but shiver. Then she suddenly stopped in front of the bridal boutique when she saw a wedding gown precisely just like hers displayed on the window. The only difference was that on the side of the gown was filled with crystal stones. After staring at it for an unknown time and when her legs became numb, Jiang Ruolan finally shifted her gaze.
Although a few days have pa.s.sed, her mind will wander back to her wedding once in a while. The wedding ceremony was supposed to take place and on that day she was supposed to put the ring on the groom"s hand.
Jiang Ruolan sighed once again and turned around, walking in the opposite direction. In a baby shop, she saw a young couple lovingly choosing their unborn clothes. Jiang Ruolan really wanted to cry. Why everywhere she went, she would meet with a couple!
She looked down in grievance while walking home quickly. But then she suddenly saw a familiar figure at an intersection. Jiang Ruolan stopped and looked at the car with surprise. Xian Jian and Jiang Yijun were standing beside the car.
Jiang Yijun? Xian Jian?
To prevent them from knowing her presence, Jiang Ruolan quickly hid behind an advertising box, put on her sungla.s.ses, and then looked over. Xian Jian"s face was expressionless. Jiang Ruolan didn"t know what Xian Jian was saying to Jiang Yijun because he (Jiang Yijun) was also expressionless, and there was a hint of a cold smile on his face.
Jiang Yijun had been in H City for a week. Could he have had some sort of relationship with the Xian Family? But once the Xian Family recognized him, how could the Old Man let his long-lost grandson leave?
That day, Jiang Yijun said that he wanted everything to return to its original point. What did that mean? Did he not intend to acknowledge his family?
Jiang Ruolan decided to wait for Jiang Yijun at his house, so she immediately left the place and went to his house. She was waiting for him at the residential complex"s entrance door. The sapphire blue SUV stopped in front of her. The window rolled down, and Jiang Yijun"s face appeared. "What are you doing here?"
