Chapter 268: Facing the Truth
Zheng Ronglan had been watching Huo Juncheng turning his pen in his office for half an hour. He couldn't understand what Lin Yilan and Huo Juncheng were thinking and why they were so restless.
First, Huo Juncheng brought his ex-girlfriend around in front of Lin Yilan, and then Lin Yilan brought her so-called true love boyfriend to appear in front of Huo Juncheng.
If these two people have no feelings for each other, then they should break up as soon as possible. Wouldn't that make it difficult for their friends?
"Huo Juncheng, why did you call me here? I've been watching you spin that pen for a full half hour. If you don't have anything important to do, I'll leave first. I don't have time to watch you spin a pen here."
Zheng Ronglan really couldn't stand the current atmosphere anymore. He said that he didn't want to stay here with Huo Juncheng in silence anymore and planned to leave directly.
Zheng Ronglan had just left his seat when he heard Huo Juncheng's voice coming over slowly, "Who told you to leave? Sit back down."
There was no other way. Zheng Ronglan sighed and sat back down. "So, do you have anything you need my help with?"
Zheng Ronglan said this and looked at Huo Juncheng, hoping that Huo Juncheng would quickly reveal his true purpose. However, Huo Juncheng's pen stopped turning and he remained silent.
"Oh, I just remembered something..."
"What's the matter? Is it related to Lin Yilan?" Huo Juncheng interrupted Zheng Ronglan before she could finish.
Zheng Ronglan looked at Huo Juncheng's expression, smacked his lips, and nodded helplessly, "I guess so. It has something to do with Lin Yilan anyway."
"What is it? Tell me."
Hearing Huo Juncheng's urging, Zheng Ronglan felt that it was a good thing that he had a good temper, otherwise he would have started to argue with Huo Juncheng directly. Wasn't he, Zheng Ronglan, about to say it just now, but Huo Juncheng interrupted him midway.
Now Huo Juncheng was here again, urging him to speak quickly. It really was Huo Juncheng who had taken over all the logic. Never mind. Zheng Ronglan had actually long been accustomed to Huo Juncheng's behavior.
"When I first came up here, I ran into your ex-girlfriend. She said that if possible, she wanted you to give her the bracelet you bought at the auction."
"Then what?"
"And then? There's no then, so do you want to give that bracelet to Jenny?"
"Didn't you say it was something related to Lin Yilan? What does this have to do with Lin Yilan?"
Faced with Huo Juncheng's question, Zheng Ronglan was completely speechless. He realized that Huo Juncheng had called him here for no important matter at all. It was because he had a conflict with Lin Yilan, and he didn't know how to resolve it.
But Huo Juncheng was born stubborn. He wanted to reconcile with Lin Yilan, but he was too embarrassed to speak up and couldn't bring himself to do it.
Seeing Zheng Ronglan remained silent, Huo Juncheng knocked on the table angrily, "So what does this matter you just mentioned have to do with Lin Yilan?"
Hearing Huo Juncheng's persistent question, Zheng Ronglan shrugged and said, "This is the bracelet that you and Lin Yilan snatched at the auction. If you insist, it has something to do with Lin Yilan. So what do you think? Do you want to give the bracelet to Jenny?"
"Whether I give it or not is my business. It has nothing to do with you. If you have nothing to do with me, please leave now and don't interfere with my work."
A group of alpacas ran through Zheng Ronglan's mind at this moment. He had wanted to leave for a long time. If it weren't for Huo Juncheng who kept asking him to stay here, how could he have wasted his time in Huo Juncheng's office.
And now Huo Juncheng was actually trying to drive him away? Okay, very good. He couldn't wait to get out of here.
"Okay, okay, then Mr. Huo, just focus on your work. I, Zheng Ronglan, won't bother you here anymore. Bye."
Zheng Ronglan waved at Huo Juncheng arrogantly. He had already walked to the door with one hand on the door handle. He was about to leave Huo Juncheng's office when he was stopped by Huo Juncheng.
Zheng Ronglan's face wrinkled together, "Brother, what do you want to do? I've been sitting here with you quietly for almost an hour, and you won't tell me what you want to do, and you won't let me go..."
"Don't you know why I called you here?"
Facing Huo Juncheng's question, if it were in the past, Zheng Ronglan might have given Huo Juncheng some face and said it tactfully, but he was already annoyed enough staying in Huo Juncheng's office.
He started complaining directly, "You just had a quarrel with Lin Yilan, but there's no need to torture me like this. If you like Lin Yilan, just let Jenny move out of your Huo family, apologize to Lin Yilan, and let her come back. Isn't that enough? Why are you wasting your time with me here?"
"Jenny lives in the Huo family. What does this have to do with Lin Yilan and my unpleasantness? Isn't it that she doesn't want to go back to the Huo family now that she has that so-called boyfriend? Why should I apologize to Lin Yilan? It's clearly her fault."
"Oh, what can I say to you? Do you think it's right for Jenny to live in the Huo family? It's not like she can't afford a hotel when she comes here. Why are you arranging for her to stay at the Huo family? Let's not talk about whether Lin Yilan's boyfriend is real or not. If I were Lin Yilan and knew that Jenny was living in the Huo family, I wouldn't go back either."
"What do you mean by that? Are you saying that I'm wrong?"
Huo Juncheng raised his eyebrows, his expression clearly revealing a hint of displeasure. Zheng Ronglan knew that Huo Juncheng would be angry if he said that, but looking at Huo Juncheng's current state, he felt that it was better that he didn't lose his temper with him.
Zheng Ronglan's wise choice now would have been to shut his mouth and let Huo Juncheng do whatever he wanted. However, when he thought of the awkward relationship between Lin Yilan and Huo Juncheng, he couldn't help it.
"Think about it. Lin Yilan is your fiancée, and you brought your ex-girlfriend back to the Huo family. You were already having conflicts during that time, and you still did this. What do you think Lin Yilan will think? And I'm also confused. Why did your relationship become so strange after Lin Yilan was kidnapped? If there is any misunderstanding, can't you just talk it out?"
Zheng Ronglan looked at Huo Juncheng in silence, not wanting to waste any more time with him. "Just tell me one thing, how do you feel about Lin Yilan? Do you like her or not? Just one word, and look clearly into your heart."
Hearing Zheng Ronglan's question, Huo Juncheng fell into deep thought. Zheng Ronglan watched Huo Juncheng like this from the side, and was not in a hurry to interrupt him. Originally, this should be a question that Huo Juncheng had never thought about before.
Ever since Lin Yilan appeared beside Huo Juncheng, she has been Huo Juncheng's fiancée. No matter whether the two like each other or not, this relationship exists between them and cannot be changed.
But now, due to many reasons, Huo Juncheng had to start thinking about the relationship between the two.
