"Me? What's wrong?"
Chen Fan didn't expect Su Qing to suddenly point at him, and he didn't quite understand what was going on.
Su Qing suddenly smiled faintly.
"I'm leaving soon. Could you please drive me to the airport?"
Chen Fan smiled and said, "How could it be my turn to take a beautiful lady to the airport? Of course it should be Brother Di..."
"He's been drinking."
Without waiting for Wu Di to speak, Su Qing interrupted him and stared at Chen Fan.
"If you don't have time, forget it. I'll take a taxi there myself."
Wu Di interrupted awkwardly: "That old Chen was actually drunk, he..."
Before Chen Fan could open his mouth, Ma Xiaoshuai suddenly came over.
"Has your driver arrived yet?"
Chen Fan raised his head and looked around.
"I'm here, eating over there."
Ma Xiaoshuai patted Chen Fan on the shoulder and said, "Don't run away later. You have to help me see these friends and classmates off. We agreed on this yesterday."
Chen Fan nodded: "Let it go. Just do your thing. Don't worry about the rest."
“That’s nice!”
Marshal Ma then left with satisfaction.
Chen Fan raised his head and found Su Qing looking at him with a half-smile.
Chen Fan suddenly felt a little teased: "Well...how about I take you there later?"
"OK."
Su Qing nodded and said nothing more.
Chen Fan shrugged at Wu Di, showing a helpless expression.
The wedding banquet ended and the excitement faded.
Friends and relatives began to leave the banquet. Because Song Linlin's belly was getting bigger, Su Ruchu had to keep an eye on her at all times.
Ma Xiaoshuai was busy with a lot of things to deal with.
The task of sending the bride and groom to the old classmates was given to the 519 group.
Su Qing walked up to Chen Fan with a smile, carrying a shoulder bag.
"Let's go?"
Chen Fan glanced at Di Ge who was standing next to him with a depressed look on his face and joked with a smile.
"Let her go. Make sure to get her to the airport safely."
The two walked out of the banquet hall and looked at the flower baskets piled up in the corridor. Su Qing looked at the blessings on the flower baskets as she walked.
"Most of these...are sent by your business partners, right?"
Chen Fan smiled and said, "There are quite a few people in the groom's own circle of friends."
Su Qing's steps suddenly stopped.
"What's up?"
Following Su Qing's gaze, Chen Fan realized that it was a not-so-big flower basket with a blessing message written on it.
"I wish the bride and groom a happy wedding, a long and happy marriage, and a long life together."
The signature was "An old classmate."
Chen Fan was a little puzzled: "Old classmate? Who is this? Why is he so mysterious?"
Su Qing had a complicated expression.
"It should be Li Jiao."
"Li Jiao?"
Chen Fan was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, he felt that this possibility was very high.
When going downstairs, Chen Fan said that Song Linlin had contacted Li Jiao before, but received no response.
“She’s not doing well.”
Su Qing suddenly asked, and Chen Fan asked curiously, "Have you seen her?"
Su Qing shook her head.
"Li Jiao contacted me before I graduated last year."
"There are six of us in the dormitory, and she has no friends anymore. Maybe she came to me just to try her luck."
Turning her head to look at Chen Fan, Su Qing explained, "She came to me to borrow money."
"She wasn't having a good time. When she contacted me, she was already preparing to leave Yunhai."
"Her old boyfriend is a scumbag. He promised her that he would marry her and bring her back to China and get her a green card."
"But when Li Jiao got pregnant, the guy ran away alone. What's even more infuriating is that he was already married in his own country and had two children."
"Li Jiao was completely deceived by the other party."
"She called me to borrow money to have an abortion."
"Now that I think about it, she's actually quite pitiful."
Chen Fan said expressionlessly: "Everyone has to bear the consequences of their own choices."
Li Jiao's ending was actually her own choice.
If she had not chosen to give up her relationship with Brother Jie, then after he was released, he would have treated her better than before because of guilt, and Li Jiao would be the boss lady now.
Of course, because of Jie Ge's imprisonment, Li Jiao chose to give up this relationship, and Chen Fanxiao could understand.
There is no right or wrong in this matter, only personal choice.
That's why Chen Fan said that everyone has to bear the consequences of their own choices.
Su Qing did not continue the topic.
Walking to the side of Su Sheng, Chen Fan turned his head and looked at Su Qing.
"I'm drunk, are you sure you want me to take you there?"
Su Qing: "I'm not used to riding in a stranger's car."
Chen Fan nodded and opened the passenger door for Su Qing.
On the way to the airport, Su Ruchu sat quietly in the co-pilot seat.
Chen Fan was trying to find a topic to chat about.
Talking about everyone's changes after graduation, Chen Fan joked that Su Qing had changed a lot. She became more and more beautiful, and she became more and more intellectual, with a kind of mature beauty.
Su Qing smiled and said, "It just means that I am older than when I was in school."
Chen Fan: “…”
"Before we part, can you give me a piece of advice?"
"What suggestions?"
"You are a big boss at such a young age and you have to manage such a large enterprise. What do you think is the secret of your success?"
"Luck plus a little bit of strength."
Su Qing smiled: "So humble?"
Chen Fan smiled and said, "I'm really not being modest. This is the truth."
Su Qing: "I'm afraid age isn't an advantage in the workplace, right?"
"How do you manage those employees? Especially during meetings, facing so many elites, don't you get nervous?"
Chen Fan smiled, "Of course I was nervous at first, but I got used to it slowly. I'm the boss, they should be the ones who are nervous."
Su Qing: "During these years of starting your business, have you ever encountered any difficulties? How did you overcome them?"
"Also, when I enter the workplace, what should I do if my leader blames me?"
"Difficulties? There have always been difficulties." Chen Fan grinned: "As for the secret to facing difficulties..."
"Only death can support you!"
Su Qing was stunned, looked at Chen Fan and smiled.
"That's a good idea. I've learned something."
Su Qing looked straight ahead, was silent for two seconds, and suddenly spoke.
"Can you promise me something?"
"You say."
"Can you please not mention Wu Di again in the future?"
"ah?"
Chen Fan looked over in surprise.
Su Qing whispered, "I have already broken up with him. I don't know what Wu Di thinks, but it's over. I, Su Qing, will never go back."
"Besides, Wu Di and I are destined not to be together because of our personalities."
"So, can you please stop making fun of me and Wu Di?"
Chen Fan suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, I... overlooked your idea. I apologize. I will never make jokes again in the future."
Su Qing said nothing more.
Chen Fan was embarrassed and wanted to find a new topic to mediate the situation.
"During your three years as a graduate student, have you ever thought about having another relationship?"
"You are so beautiful. You must be a mature lady in your own words. There must be a lot of boys pursuing you in school..."
"I guess your requirements are too high..."
Su Qing shook her head: "It's just that I haven't met the right one yet."
Chen Fan smiled and said, "What kind do you like? I know a lot of young talents. Tell me what kind you like and I'll help you..."
"I like you!"
“…”
