Chapter 238 A sudden meeting
"Yilan, are you free today? I have something I want to talk to you about. Is that convenient?"
Lin Yilan was half asleep and half awake when she heard her phone ringing. She answered it in a daze, and heard Wang Yimo's voice coming from the other end of the phone.
Wang Yimo has not come to the Huo family these days, claiming that he has something going on at home. However, this just suits Lin Yilan's wishes. After what happened at the Wang family banquet last time, Lin Yilan really didn't know how to face Wang Yimo.
But why did Wang Yimo suddenly call her? Lin Yilan glanced at her phone and found that she was still on the call. She nodded blankly, and suddenly realized that Wang Yimo couldn't see her movements at the moment, so she responded.
"Is there something you want to talk to me about? I might have to go shopping with Siran this morning, so if it's convenient, can we talk about it in the afternoon?"
Hearing Lin Yilan say this, Wang Yimo agreed immediately and made an appointment with Lin Yilan to meet at the milk tea shop opened by Lin Yilan and Chu Siran. Lin Yilan originally didn't want Chu Siran to know Wang Yimo, but since Wang Yimo said so, Lin Yilan couldn't refuse.
…
When Lin Yilan saw Wang Yimo sitting at a wooden table and drinking coffee elegantly, she curled her lips. At this moment, she and Chu Siran had just returned from shopping. Because she didn't know why Wang Yimo was looking for her this time, she felt a little at a loss.
Chu Siran told her that she, Lin Yilan, shouldn't have agreed to meet Wang Yimo, but Lin Yilan thought, what if something really happened to Wang Yimo?
What's more, she had already made an appointment with Wang Yimo, and she would feel bad if she didn't come to see Wang Yimo.
Wang Yimo looked at Lin Yilan who was approaching her, and her smile suddenly widened several times. "Yilan, you're finally here. You must be tired from shopping. Did you have lunch? Do you want me to order something for you?"
As Wang Yimo spoke, he stretched out his hand to greet the waiter standing beside him.
Seeing this, Lin Yilan quickly waved her hand and said, "No need. I just had lunch. Besides, this is the milk tea shop that Siran and I opened. Just come over and I'll treat you."
When Wang Yimo heard Lin Yilan say this, she smiled awkwardly. How could she have forgotten that the milk tea shop she was in was opened together with that woman Chu Siran.
Originally, Wang Yimo didn't have any big purpose for meeting in the milk tea shop. He just wanted to meet Chu Siran because he had heard about the second daughter of the Chu family.
"What do you want to talk to me about? If it's something related to the course, then there's nothing much to say. I told Huo Juncheng last time that I won't study those boring things anymore, even if it's just studying..."
Having said this, Lin Yilan paused, glanced at Wang Yimo's expression, and found that Wang Yimo had not changed much. Then she continued, "Then let Huo Juncheng help me find another private teacher."
"Why? Is it because I didn't do something good enough? If you didn't want to study business administration anymore, I could accept that. But if you want to continue studying, why do you want to replace me?"
Wang Yi said this, but there was no surprise in his tone.
At this time, Chu Siran, who was sitting at the opposite table, finally couldn't bear to hear it anymore. "Miss Wang, don't you know in your heart? Although Yilan may not know the dirty tricks you used at the banquet last time, the people around her have been in this circle for many years. Do you think they don't understand?"
Chu Siran said this, even giving Wang Yimo an undisguised, sarcastic smile. His words revealed nothing but disgust for Wang Yimo.
Seeing Wang Yimo's increasingly embarrassed expression, Chu Siran continued.
"It's not just me. What you wouldn't have guessed is that Huo Juncheng had already seen through all your self-righteous schemes. And the trap you painstakingly set up is nothing but a joke in the eyes of others. So, Miss Wang, if you don't have anything important to do today, please don't be an eyesore here, okay?"
Wang Yimo knew Huo Juncheng had seen through her previous actions long ago, otherwise she definitely wouldn't be here today. But being publicly mocked by Chu Siran still made her feel uncomfortable.
However, no matter how uncomfortable she felt, there were some things she still had to do. How could she give up on Huo Juncheng so easily!
Wang Yimo deliberately pretended to be pitiful, her eyes filled with apology as she looked at Lin Yilan, "Yilan, since you already know everything, I won't hide it from you. I do have feelings for Mr. Huo, and what happened last time was indeed my fault. I came here today specifically to apologize to you."
Lin Yilan didn't expect Wang Yimo to say that and was slightly shocked.
"I'm so sorry, we don't accept your apology, and there's no need for you to apologize. Just stay away from the Huo family and Yilan. We don't want to see you every day."
After Chu Siran finished speaking, he went straight forward to pull Lin Yilan, "If you want to drink milk tea, just drink it here and slowly. We don't have the time to accompany you. As for the money, it's our treat."
Seeing this, Wang Yimo quickly stepped forward to pull Lin Yilan, "Wait a minute, actually, I was fired by President Huo a long time ago. I came here for other things today."
"What? You said Huo Juncheng fired you?"
Compared to Lin Yilan's shock, Chu Siran remained calm when hearing Wang Yimo's words. "It seems Huo Juncheng is not bad after all. I thought he would be reluctant to let you go, but I didn't expect him to actually fire you like this."
"Miss Chu, you're joking. I'm the only one who's being sentimental. How could Mr. Huo be interested in me?"
Wang Yimo said, and turned his attention to Lin Yilan, "Yilan, I really have something to ask you. Can you spare a moment of your time? Please..."
Lin Yilan originally wanted to just leave Wang Yimo here and not care about Wang Yimo, but seeing Wang Yimo's begging look, she felt a little reluctant.
Lin Yilan glanced at Chu Siran, took the hand that Chu Siran was holding and placed it in her palm, squeezed it gently, and told her to try to relax. Then she sat down again.
Wang Yimo looked at Lin Yilan sitting opposite her again, and the corners of her mouth rose again. However, when Lin Yilan asked what was going on, Wang Yimo instantly looked very sad again.
The speed at which her expression changed was really fast. If Lin Yilan hadn't given Chu Siran a look, telling him to go take care of his own business first, Chu Siran would have immediately pulled Wang Yimo out and asked her to leave the milk tea shop.
She didn't think that Wang Yimo really had something to ask Lin Yilan. Since Huo Juncheng had fired Wang Yimo, Wang Yimo might have come this time to ask Lin Yilan to talk to Huo Juncheng and re-hire Wang Yimo.
