Unlike the last time at the tennis court, this gathering was held in a high-end club in Jiangcheng. When Fu Jingchen arrived, there were already two people in the box, besides Meng Hao, the other was Jiang Lin who came from City A.
Fu Jingchen was a little surprised when he saw Jiang Lin: "Why did you come to Jiangcheng?"
Seeing Fu Jingchen like this, Meng Hao said beside him: "Mr. Jiang heard that you were going to get married for the second time, so he rushed here from City A."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Lin patted Meng Hao on the shoulder and declared, "I didn't know this in advance, Brother Jingchen. Meng Hao is such a big mouth. If he knows something, it's like it's all public knowledge."
Because they were all acquaintances, Fu Jingchen didn't get angry. He took off his woolen coat, revealing a fitted navy blue shirt underneath. There was a smile between his eyebrows. Meng Hao looked at him with a toothache. The marriage hadn't even ended yet, but he really looked like a sweet newlywed.
Fu Jingchen walked to a single sofa on the side and sat down. He took out a lighter and asked while lighting a cigarette, "When did you come?"
Speaking of which, Jiang Lin and he are distant relatives. Jiang Lin's mother is the daughter of Hua Zheng's uncle. His mother married to City A, and he has been living in City A. However, because he is only a few years older than Fu Jingchen, he had frequent contact with the Fu family when Hua Zheng was alive.
He poured Fu Jingchen a glass of wine and said, "the day before yesterday, I'm leaving tomorrow, and it just so happens that Haozi is looking for me today." He has a lot of business contacts with Meng Hao. Although the two were introduced by Fu Jingchen, they have a good relationship.
After Jiang Lin finished pouring the wine, he picked up the glass and joked: "Congratulations, Brother Jingchen. When will you bring your sister-in-law over to see me?"
Fu Jingchen clinked glasses with him and said, "there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
Meng Hao also chimed in: "That's not easy. When Jingchen holds his wedding, you'll get to see the bride."
Jiang Lin chuckled and agreed, "That's right."
After Meng Hao finished speaking, he looked at his watch and muttered, "Why hasn't Mu Bai come yet? I'll give him a call."
Before he could call, the door of the box was pushed open, Meng Hao saw Shen Mubai, stood up and greeted him: “Why are you so late, you are really busier than Jingchen…”
When he saw the person following behind Shen Mubai, Meng Hao suddenly fell silent, his expression becoming very strange.
Shen Mubai was also a little embarrassed: “We are late.”
Li Ying smiled generously, her eyes still charming, and said, "There's a traffic jam on the road."
Jiang Lin swallowed, exchanged a glance with Meng Hao, and then looked at Fu Jingchen. He had just said he wanted to see his sister-in-law, and now this sister-in-law was here, but she was his ex-sister-in-law.
Meng Hao was really confused and secretly winked at Shen Mubai.
I thought to myself, "Didn't I tell you why we're having this party today? Why did you bring Li Ying with you?"
Shen Mubai smiled bitterly. He knew that what he did was inappropriate, but he couldn't refuse Li Ying.
At this point, Meng Hao had no choice but to let them in with a smile, agreeing, "Traffic jams are common at night."
After Li Ying came in, she also took off her coat. She was wearing a black wool sweater underneath, which made her back look slender and her waist look as thin as a hand. Her hair was simply tied up, and the diamond earrings on her earlobes sparkled.
Although he was sitting next to Shen Mubai, his eyes were always on Fu Jingchen.
Fu Jingchen leaned over and lighted the cigarette in the ashtray. He hadn't said a word since Li Ying came in.
The air seemed to be stagnant, and Meng Hao was about to sweat. Just now, they had been talking about the news that Fu Jingchen was going to get married, but after Li Ying came, they couldn't say it at all.
After all, we were once husband and wife. Talking about the current partner in front of the ex always seems embarrassing and I would never do such a thing.
Since they couldn't talk about marriage anymore, Meng Hao could only ask about Li Ying's situation after returning to China out of politeness. Jiang Lin and Li Ying also knew each other, and the atmosphere was less awkward during the greetings.
When Fu Jingchen was almost done smoking his cigarette, his cell phone rang.
He stood up and left the box. When he answered the phone, Ye Susu's voice came from the other side: "Jingchen, are you here?"
Fu Jingchen smiled when he heard this: "What's wrong? I just got here."
At that time, Ye Susu was lying on the bed, with her calves raised and shaking up and down. She also knew that Fu Jingchen had just left, but she couldn't help but call him: "Okay, then you should drink less and don't smoke too much."
Hearing the other party's caring words, Fu Jingchen smiled even more deeply: "I know, don't wait for me, go to bed early."
Ye Susu felt a little embarrassed. She had just said that she was not clingy, but now her behavior showed that she could not live without people. She responded shyly.
After Fu Jingchen hung up the phone, he turned around and wanted to go back to the box. In fact, he was a little bored after Li Ying came, but Jiang Lin came from City A after all, and it was not easy to meet him.
Before she reached the door, another person came out of the box. She looked up and smiled: "Call?"
Fu Jingchen was silent for a moment and nodded.
Li Ying actually didn't know what to say. She knew that Ye Susu had a miscarriage. To be honest, she was a little happy in her heart, although this "happiness" was very dark.
Since she returned to China, she found that her feelings for Fu Jingchen were getting deeper and deeper. It was okay when she was on the other side of the ocean, but when she returned to Jiangcheng, it seemed difficult to get around him, no matter the people around her or what happened.
She saw Fu Jingchen issue a statement for that woman with her own eyes. She was drunk that day and she was unwilling to accept it.
Why? When they were married, he was so busy that he didn't even have the chance to meet. She asked for a divorce, but he didn't try to keep her. Now that his career is stable, has he found love again?
Li Ying can no longer tell whether she loves Fu Jingchen or is unwilling to give up.
She really didn't want to accept it.
"Jingchen, have you ever loved me?" Li Ying almost used up all her courage to ask this question. She was a person with extremely high self-esteem.
Looking at the man in front of her, Li Ying was a little dazed. He seemed to have never changed, but he also seemed to have changed. However, she was sure that what he did for Ye Susu, he had never done for her.
Fu Jingchen slowly said: "Li Ying, let the past go, and you have to look forward."
They were husband and wife, but in the end, only such a flat tone remained. It was a world of difference from his attitude when he answered the phone just now.
"What's so good about her? I really don't understand." A sneer appeared on Li Ying's lips. She really couldn't see what else Ye Susu had besides being young and beautiful.
Fu Jingchen frowned: "whether she is good or not, it doesn't matter what others think, as long as I think it's okay." After that, his eyes deepened a little: "Li Ying, the last time Su Su's mother came to Xiaguang Road to find her, you took them in."
He was just stating, but Li Ying couldn't help but tremble. Yes, she was the one who brought her in. Moreover, she had investigated Ye Susu and knew that she had a bad relationship with her mother. So what?
What does Fu Jingchen want to do?
