"Breaking up is the only solution," Chen Pan sighed, slumping on the sofa, "but I can't do what you did, completely deleting all contact information of my ex, then hardening my heart and saying goodbye to the past. Lu Zhishu and I broke up peacefully. I don't hate him, nor do I want to blame him. I can only say that we are not the same kind of people. Or rather, we used to be the same kind of people, but not anymore."
They used to get along quite well in that shabby office building.
Chen Pan had also secretly fallen in love with him for a long time, but she was timid and afraid that if the window paper was broken, they would no longer even be friends, so she had been cautious and full of expectations.
She was officially together with Lu Zhishu when he was drunk. Perhaps because of the alcohol, people were more proactive and bold. Lu Zhishu no longer concealed his desire and confessed his love to her in bed.
How could Shen Pan resist? He surrendered in a matter of minutes.
At that time, she was only seeking temporary pleasure and had never thought about her future with Lu Zhishu.
As the saying goes, if you don't plan for the future, you will have immediate worries.
She hadn't thought about the long-term future, and the irreconcilable conflict between her and Lu Zhishu broke out all at once when they had only been dating for two months.
Chen Pan had seen Lu Zhishu's high spirits when he got a big project, his passionate speeches at company meetings, and how the team he had built in half a year had defeated his competitors who had started their businesses at the same time as him, step by step.
He was like a mighty general on the battlefield, slaying gods and Buddhas who stood in his way, and cutting through thorns and brambles.
At that time, Lu Zhishu was radiating light all over his body, and he was the mountain she looked up to.
But his victories all came at a price. He devoted all his energy to his career and was too stingy to pay even a little bit of attention to her.
Shen Pan knew that this man only had his ambition in his heart.
"What's going on with Kan Tong? Are they together?" Zhou Mo asked.
Chen Pan: "Lu Zhishu said no. Kan Tong can help her contact Song Yan to discuss the Bojian patent."
Zhou Mo was stunned for a moment: "Just because of this?"
"Um."
Zhou Mo was very stubborn, "Are you stupid? You also have Song Yan's contact information, you can also help Lu Zhishu, why did you give it to Kan Tong?"
Shen Pan froze for a moment before reacting, "Yeah, I know Song Yan too... Never mind, I won't get involved in their affairs."
She chose to lie down. "What good would it do to help Lu Zhishu? There's no way Lu Zhishu and I can get back together."
"That's right," Zhou Mo knew that Chen Pan was in trouble.
The problem between Chen Pan and Lu Zhishu is not about whether Kan Tong is there, nor is it about whether she helps Lu Zhishu or not.
The fundamental conflict cannot be resolved. Even if Chen Pan helps Lu Zhishu, they will not reconcile.
"I want to find someone to marry," Shen Pan said suddenly.
"Don't," Zhou Mo reminded: "Dating is easy, but marriage requires caution."
"Then I should be able to go on blind dates, right?" Chen Pan said, "I'm not young anymore, and my parents are starting to push me. It would be best if I could find someone this year. If I feel like he's a good match, I'll take him to meet my parents during the Chinese New Year. We'll get the marriage certificate next year, and have a baby the year after."
"..." Zhou Mo: "Be reasonable. It's just a breakup, don't go to extremes."
"I'm not extreme," Shen Pan said. "I just want to live a simple life."
"Sister, don't be anxious, let's stabilize our income first," Zhou Mo felt that Shen Pan was experiencing the aftereffects of the breakup and her reaction was too intense.
Speaking of income, Shen Pan felt a headache, "What you said is really my biggest headache right now."
Zhou Mo: "Yeah, how can you get married if you don't have money? Make money first."
Shen Pan: "Okay, let's put the marriage on hold and get the money first."
Seeing that Chen Pan had regained his sanity, Zhou Mo asked, "What do you want to eat tonight?"
Shen Pan: "Crayfish."
"..." Zhou Mo: "You really know how to choose. I wanted to eat it at noon, but Han Chen wouldn't let me."
"Why?"
"During menstruation, spicy and stimulating foods are taboo."
"...What a great way to spread dog food."
night.
Zhou Mo cooked some porridge, ordered some food and bought some pancakes. There were also some side dishes prepared by Liu Xiangru in the refrigerator, so a simple and delicious dinner was easily prepared.
After dinner, Shen Pan was very conscious and took the initiative to wash the dishes.
Zhou Mo sat on the sofa and played with his cell phone.
Shen Pan's cell phone, which was placed on the coffee table, rang.
Zhou Mo's cell phone rang almost at the same time.
"Who sent the message?" Shen Pan in the kitchen asked after hearing it.
Zhou Mo: "Song Yan, I asked you in the group, why didn't Lu Zhishu contact him through you? He went through such a big circle."
Shen Pan quickly washed his hands and came out of the kitchen, "Did he meet Lu Zhishu?"
"I don't know. Let me ask."
Zhou Mo asked in the group: Have you met Lu Zhishu?
Song Yan: Not yet, they said it was seven o'clock.
It's only six o'clock.
Song Yan: What does Lu Zhishu want to talk to me about?
Zhou Mo was stunned: You don’t know?
Song Yan: What should I know?
Zhou Mo couldn't figure out whether Song Yan was really stupid or just pretending to be stupid.
"Chen Pan, come quickly," Zhou Mo said towards the kitchen, "Look, Song Yan actually said he didn't know why Lu Zhishu was looking for him."
"Huh? Is this true? What's going on?" After cleaning up the kitchen, Shen Pan hurried out, picked up his phone, and looked at the conversation between Zhou Mo and Song Yan.
She immediately asked in the group: Does DI know about Bojian’s financing?
Song Yan: I don’t know.
Chen Pan: How is that possible? Aren't you all from RG?
Song Yan: They are both RGs but not in the same company. DI is engaged in equity financing, while Yitian is engaged in product development. They are not in the same field and do not have much business dealings.
Zhou Mo and Shen Pan looked at each other. What Song Yan said made sense.
But they didn't dare to believe Song Yan's one-sided statement and could only ask tentative questions slowly.
Zhou Mo thought for a while and asked: Mr. Lu, do you know about DI’s financing?
She wanted to know if Lu Yaocheng was the mastermind behind this.
Song Yan: You're talking about my brother? Why are you suddenly mentioning my brother? I don't know much about their money-making business. I'm mainly responsible for using money to support dreams. As the saying goes: spending money.
Zhou Mo and Shen Pan stared at their phone screens in a daze.
Song Yan spoke in a relaxed tone, speaking his mind directly and not seeming to be hiding anything.
"Do you think he knows?" Shen Pan asked Zhou Mo.
"I don't know," Zhou Mo said, "If he knew, he definitely wouldn't ask you in the group why Lu Zhishu came to him."
Chen Pan: "If it's not him, could it be Lu Yaocheng?"
Zhou Mo: "This possibility cannot be ruled out."
Maybe even Song Yan was used as a gun.
Seeing that Zhou Mo and Shen Pan didn't say anything, Song Yan became a little anxious.
He @Chen Pan and asked: Lu Zhishu won’t hit me, right?
Chen Pan: ???
Song Yan: Didn't you break up with him? He wouldn't think I stole you away, would he?
Chen Pan: ...What I'm saying is, you're overthinking it, OK?
Song Yan: Why else would he look for me? I don't know him.
Chen Pan: Do you really not know, or are you pretending not to know?
Song Yan: What exactly should I know? Why are you all talking like riddles today?
