Chapter 248 A Broken Mirror Reunited
His deep, dark eyes reflected the figures of Jiang Ning and Bai Yichen.
Jiang Ning looks very capable, excellent, and has the demeanor of an entrepreneur.
The fact that this rehabilitation center has attracted so many more clients in just a few days since it was taken over in Jiangning speaks volumes.
Lu Junyan watched Jiang Ning and Bai Yichen working together, feeling a lump in his throat.
"Jiangning..."
He spoke first, his voice low and bitter.
Jiang Ning was indeed drawn to his voice.
But it was only for a moment.
Seeing that Lu Junyan had run out of things to say, Jiang Ning turned back and continued talking to Bai Yichen about work.
Just as she was about to leave the hall with Bai Yichen, Lu Junyan spoke again:
I need to talk to you.
Lu Junyan then added in a timely manner:
"It's very important."
Jiang Ning's wrist was grabbed by Bai Yichen the moment he turned around.
Lu Junyan's expression changed.
Jiang Ning smiled at Bai Yichen, then said to Lu Junyan, "I'm sorry, I have work to do. You can schedule a time with my assistant."
"I want to talk to you now."
Lu Junyan's voice was low, but his tone carried a sense of urgency and pressure.
Jiang Ning looked at Lu Junyan with a helpless and annoyed gaze that felt like a fist hitting Lu Junyan's chest.
"Then wait until I'm done with my work."
"good."
Lu Junyan readily agreed.
However, Jiang Ning meant three hours.
Lu Junyan stood there like a telephone pole, obediently waiting for Jiang Ning for three hours.
Three hours later, Jiang Ning finally finished her urgent business and walked out chatting and laughing with Bai Yichen.
"Jiangning..."
Jiang Ning was startled when he suddenly heard Lu Junyan's voice.
This moment made Lu Junyan realize that Jiang Ning had no idea he was still waiting for her.
Lu Junyan clenched his fists; it would be a lie to say he wasn't upset.
"Can you give me some time now?"
Jiang Ning could hear the anger in Lu Junyan's voice, but she was surprised that Lu Junyan was suppressing this anger.
"good……"
Bai Yichen, standing beside him, lowered his eyes slightly.
Actually, he didn't want Jiang Ning and Lu Junyan to be together.
They're already divorced, what's there to talk about?
However, since Jiang Ning had agreed, he couldn't very well stop him.
"Ah Ning, be careful."
Bai Yichen patted Jiang Ning on the shoulder.
"Don't worry, he wouldn't dare do anything to me."
Jiang Ning's smile was radiant.
Actually, she and Bai Yichen thought about the same thing.
That day at the Lu Group, she said everything she wanted to say to Lu Junyan.
She didn't think Lu Junyan had anything else to talk to her about.
If it's for Chu Qingxue's sake, then it's even less necessary.
Lu Junyan is such a smart person, she couldn't possibly be unaware of Chu Qingxue's attitude.
"Let's go to my office to talk."
Jiang Ning took Lu Junyan to the general manager's office in the rehabilitation center.
Jiang Ning sat inside the desk, while Lu Junyan sat outside the desk.
The two were face to face.
When did it start?
His meetings and chats with Jiang Ning, and even when they were alone together, all had to be conducted in the office, as if it were business.
Seeing Lu Junyan's furrowed brows and his growing anger, Jiang Ning couldn't help but speak:
"It was your own choice to wait."
Hearing Jiang Ning say this, Lu Junyan frowned even more.
Jiang Ning even got the reason why he was angry wrong.
"Jiangning..."
Lu Junyan spoke, his gaze fixed on Jiang Ning like a deep, unfathomable sea.
"I will no longer help Qingxue... The 1.5 billion I gave her before was my final compensation."
Lu Junyan said this with absolute certainty.
However, Jiang Ning was completely baffled by what he heard.
"So... this is what you wanted to talk to me about?"
"right."
Seeing Lu Junyan nod, Jiang Ning couldn't help but chuckle.
Whether you help Chu Qingxue or not is between you and her, it has nothing to do with me... Besides, I don't think you, having signed a fund supervision agreement, still have the ability to help her make a comeback.
After calmly finishing speaking, Jiang Ning stood up.
"If that's all you wanted to say to me..."
Jiang Ning pressed the internal phone button:
"Secretary Li, come in and help me see Lu off..."
Before Jiang Ning could finish speaking, Lu Junyan hung up the phone.
She raised her eyelids and glared at Lu Junyan with displeasure. The latter's brows furrowed and his face was cold.
What Jiang Ning did to him just now, he did to Chu Qingxue today as well.
Lu Junyan felt his stomach start to hurt again.
"I no longer love Chu Qingxue..."
Jiang Ning's eyelids lifted slightly.
"I admit... I've changed my mind..."
Lu Junyan emphasized the last few words.
As he spoke, he stared intently at Jiang Ning, his dark eyes like swamps that could easily drown a person.
Jiang Ning was also looking at him.
His words stirred ripples in her large, watery eyes, which were like clear lake water.
Lu Junyan knew perfectly well what was going on.
As long as he doesn't choose Chu Qingxue, Jiang Ning will definitely fall back into his arms.
He remembered clearly how much Jiang Ning loved him.
When they were dating, he was always late for their dates, at least an hour late, but Jiang Ning always waited for him patiently without ever complaining.
She was allergic to pollen but never told him because she liked the flowers he sent her.
She wore whatever clothes he told her to wear.
She dressed however he liked.
I always listen to him when it comes to meals and movies.
After we got married, she did his laundry and cooked for him without ever complaining.
In bed, he could have whatever he wanted; he could do whatever he pleased.
Lu Junyan firmly believes that the hope of Jiangning has always been to regain what was lost and to mend what was broken.
"Jiangning, I think we can..."
"Then I wish you and Miss Lin Wanrong, the daughter of the Lin family, a long and happy marriage."
Lu Junyan froze on the spot, and then he saw Jiang Ning call over Secretary Li.
"Secretary Li, please see the guest out for me."
Secretary Li approached Lu Junyan and politely said:
"Mr. Lu, please..."
Lu Junyan didn't even know how he left Jiang Ning's office. He only felt dazed, lightheaded, and his chest felt empty, as if a piece of it had been ripped out.
As he exited the elevator, he came face to face with Bai Yichen.
He stepped out of the elevator, and Bai Yichen stepped into it.
Before the elevator doors closed, he heard Bai Yichen inside say:
"Stop bothering A-Ning. Reconciliation after a breakup is something that only happens in novels."
The elevator doors closed, shut tightly.
Lu Junyan's face was reflected on the elevator door, like a demon from hell.
Gu Lanlan skipped work today.
Although taking personal leave would still result in a percentage deduction from her salary, she still took it.
During her lunch break, she went to the CelestiMed branch to see Gu Jinci.
Because she made a "loving wife bento" for Gu Jinci.
This was the first time in Gu Lanlan's life that she had cooked a meal herself. She followed the steps taught on the app step by step, and finally succeeded after many attempts and failures.
Gu Lanlan had many band-aids on her fingers.
Gu Jinci was very observant and noticed it at a glance.
"To punish you for not taking care of yourself, come with me to a nice place this afternoon!"
Gu Jinci is the head of the branch office, so of course he can skip work openly and legitimately.
However, Gu Lanlan could not.
But she couldn't bear to part with Gu Jinci, and she was also afraid that refusing Gu Jinci would upset him, so she lied and made up an excuse to ask for leave.
The "good place" that Gu Jinci mentioned was naturally the hotel.
Lately, every time she goes on a date with Gu Jinci, he takes her to a hotel.
Although Gu Lanlan had never been in a relationship, she always felt that it was a little strange that they always went straight to the hotel.
However, Gu Jinci said that this was his way of showing his love for her.
In the hotel's king-size bed room, Gu Lanlan and Gu Jinci were blushing and savoring the afterglow after making love, while Gu Jinci was playing on his phone.
Just then, his phone rang, and the caller ID showed Chu Qingxue.
