Chapter 262 Silent War
The reason why Cheng Xuyuan didn't want to meet Shen Yumo was not because he owed Shen Yumo anything or he had any thoughts about Shen Yumo in his heart.
He just wanted to avoid embarrassment!
In fact, Cheng Xuyuan himself was not embarrassed, he was afraid that Fang Yuqing would be embarrassed.
Although Cheng Xuyuan and Shen Yumo have signed a divorce agreement, there is no ambiguity or lingering connection between them.
But, after all, the two have not yet received their divorce certificate.
Divorce without a divorce certificate is often not recognized.
And Fang Yuqing is his current girlfriend. Although they both seemed calm on the surface when they met last time, from Cheng Xuyuan's point of view, he naturally does not want such a meeting to happen again.
When Cheng Xuyuan was dumbfounded, Shen Yumo also sighed secretly. She felt that she had indeed had a mental struggle some time ago, but now, the river of emotions in her heart has tended to be calm, and she can watch Cheng Xuyuan and Fang Yuqing being together tenderly without any disturbance.
She is now very calm and no longer has any abnormal reactions psychologically.
However, she never expected to meet Cheng Xuyuan here again.
The reason she came to see Wu Hongmei this time was just to reminisce with her good friend and to congratulate her on getting admitted to her favorite university.
By the way, I'm also going to play the role of host and treat Wu Hongmei to a meal.
I was busy the past two days and didn't have time to do it.
She just happened to have time today.
When I was about to get off work, I saw that Zhang Dening had nothing to do, so I took Zhang Dening with me.
After finding Wu Hongmei, the old friends naturally felt deeply moved when they met again.
After some greetings, we prepared to go out for dinner.
As a graduate of Yenching University, Zhang Dening ordered the Changzheng Restaurant.
After all, the two schools are close to each other, and he could also call his sister along, so Shen Yumo agreed to the proposal without even thinking about it.
However, they didn't expect that when the four of them arrived here, they actually met Cheng Xuyuan having dinner with someone.
Moreover, she also knew the people Cheng Xuyuan had dinner with.
Ma Guangzhong! Although Ma Guangzhong and Shen Yumo were just acquaintances when they were in the educated youth center, they had stayed in the educated youth center for two or three years.
They are also acquaintances of each other.
What's more, Wu Hongmei and Ma Guangzhong came to Yanjing together.
How is it possible that you don’t know him?
Just when everyone was a little at a loss, Fang Yuqing stood up and said, "Sister Yumo, Sister Dening, Yufei, you guys come to eat too."
Seeing Fang Yuqing standing up and greeting him, Cheng Xuyuan instantly put aside all the thoughts in his mind.
Now is no longer the time to hesitate.
He immediately smiled and said, "De Ning, Yu Mo."
As he spoke, his eyes fell on Wu Hongmei and said, "Hongmei, congratulations!"
"Congratulations on your admission to Shuimu!"
When Wu Hongmei saw Cheng Xuyuan, she was also surprised.
But she immediately thought of this afternoon when Ma Guangzhong came to her and said that Cheng Xuyuan wanted to treat her and others to a meal.
She has always been grateful to Cheng Xuyuan.
She was also full of anticipation for meeting Cheng Xuyuan.
After all, after coming to Yanjing, even at Shuimu University, the person she listened to the most was Cheng Xuyuan.
Exchanging a book for an apartment, and it was a house in the famous Overseas Chinese Apartment, not only made the students jealous, but even some teachers were envious.
After all, many teachers still live in tube-shaped buildings with their families.
However, when Ma Guangzhong notified her, she had already made an appointment with Shen Yumo.
In this case, she could only say that she had something to do. She couldn't let these two people sit at the same table to eat! Unexpectedly, when she went out to eat with Shen Yumo, she chose the same restaurant as Cheng Xuyuan.
She knows the most about Shen Yumo and Cheng Xuyuan.
When Shen Yumo and Cheng Xuyuan got married, and some time ago, before Shen Yumo took Cheng Xuyuan away from Chengjiazhuang Brigade, the two had communicated with each other.
It can be said that she was very clear about the emotional history of Cheng Xuyuan and Shen Yumo.
At that time, she thought that Shen Yumo had done his best. After all, Shen Yumo's family not only brought Cheng Xuyuan to Yanjing, but also found him a good job.
It changed Cheng Xuyuan's fate in one fell swoop.
Thinking back then, Wu Hongmei had never seen how successful Cheng Xuyuan would be in the future - she never expected that, just one year later, after entering Yanjing, he would become the world-famous Cheng Xuyuan! Facing the current Cheng Xuyuan, would Shen Yumo regret it?
Although she had a thousand thoughts in her mind, she still smiled and said to Cheng Xuyuan: "Thank you Xuyuan, I didn't expect that I could perform so well this time."
"But this is inseparable from your guidance."
At this point, she said with a hint of emotion: "Before the college entrance examination, I took the test paper you gave me, and the score I got was less than five points lower than the score I got in this college entrance examination."
"If we talk about being great, you are the best. You stand high and see far!"
After hearing what Wu Hongmei said, Ma Guangzhong also said, "Xuyuan, when it comes to this, everyone admires you."
"Your test paper is really on point!"
"For most of the people in our educated youth center who took that set of papers, the difference between their scores and this year's college entrance examination was about 20 points."
"Everyone says that the test papers you write are truly amazing."
Cheng Xuyuan looked at Ma Guangzhong who was full of emotion and said with a smile: "I just made that paper randomly."
"What kind of results you can achieve depends on your own ability!"
At this point, he smiled and said, "You guys are here to eat too, right? Come and sit down. Just order whatever you want. I'll treat you today."
"It's just to celebrate for Hongmei, Guangzhong, Xiaoli and the other three."
"Welcome them to Yanjing."
Cheng Xuyuan and his group of four sat at a table, and the tables next to them were also full of people.
If Shen Yumo and others wanted to find a table to sit at, they could only go to a place far away.
In Cheng Xuyuan's opinion, it is better to keep some distance.
In this way, a lot of unnecessary troubles will be avoided.
Zhang Dening has also fully understood the complicated relationship between Shen Yumo and Cheng Xuyuan.
She felt that if she stood on an impartial position, Cheng Xuyuan seemed blameless.
However, as she got to know Shen Yumo better, she found herself appreciating him more and more.
Positive and motivated, working hard, as friends, we have a lot of topics to talk about, and...
When all these things came together, she unconsciously stood on Shen Yumo's side and began to think for Shen Yumo.
Although Shen Yumo and Cheng Xuyuan's divorce was a foregone conclusion, she still couldn't help but think about what it would be like if the two of them were together.
When two people are together, they should be in harmony.
The two of them together, one as an editor and the other as an author, are a perfect match.
Moreover, Cheng Xuyuan's ability, coupled with Shen Yumo's appearance, is simply a perfect match. The reason why the two divorced was because Cheng Xuyuan had not yet demonstrated his ability.
Now, Cheng Xuyuan's ability has been demonstrated, and the higher-ups don't want them to get divorced and cause negative impact, so it is possible that the two of them will just go with the flow and remain together.
The main reason for the current situation is the appearance of Fang Yuqing.
Only because Cheng Xuyuan already has a girlfriend would he make such a firm decision to divorce.
It seems that this man has not changed his character. He is still willing to take advantage of the situation and look at the pot. Cheng Xuyuan is no exception. If he is reliable, even pigs will climb trees!
When she thought of this, Zhang Dening's heart was filled with righteous indignation, and she couldn't help but stand up for Yu Mo who was left alone.
"Master Writer Cheng, you are truly wealthy and powerful!"
"Tsk tsk, I haven't seen you for a few days. I haven't had time to congratulate you on your new apartment in the Overseas Chinese Apartments!"
"They say the house over there is pretty nice. When will you invite us to visit it?"
Zhang Dening's words made Cheng Xuyuan frown slightly.
How could he not hear that there seemed to be a hint of sarcasm in this person's words?
Cheng Xuyuan was not polite to Zhang Dening. He glared at her, meaning, "Sister, why are you meddling in this? We are still friends."
But Cheng Xuyuan said calmly: "It's not because of my wealth, I'm just happy to see an old friend."
"As for the house in the Overseas Chinese Apartment, I welcome everyone to visit at any time."
"It's really just a place to live."
Shen Yumo also heard the hidden meaning in Zhang Dening's words. She glanced at Ma Guangzhong and Wu Hongmei who were a little embarrassed, then smiled and said, "De Ning, let's go sit over there."
"After dragging Hongmei around for a long time, they are hungry too!"
As he spoke, Shen Yumo walked towards a table with an empty seat.
Li Yufei saw her sister walking to the side and followed her.
In her mind, although Cheng Xuyuan and Shen Yumo seemed to be not wrong in this matter, after greeting each other, Fang Yuqing still sat motionless next to Cheng Xuyuan, while she and her friends had to find a place to eat somewhere else.
This made her feel a little depressed.
But this kind of frustration cannot be expressed in words.
Of course, she was unhappy because of Fang Yuqing. She never figured out how this girl, who didn't seem to be aggressive and proactive, got ahead of others and became Cheng Xuyuan's girlfriend.
Because of the poem Cheng Xuyuan gave her after drinking, Li Yufei felt a little warm in her heart. Unfortunately, Cheng Xuyuan later explained that it was an unintentional act.
Cheng Xuyuan's explanation was like a blow to the head, making Li Yufei dizzy. She realized that her ardent expectations and yearnings had been in vain, and her warm heart instantly turned cold. For a while, she struggled painfully.
But as time went by, the first wave of the youth torrent gradually subsided in her heart. However, no matter from which angle she looked at it, she felt that she could no longer have a good impression of the other party, Yuqing.
Just when Li Yufei took two or three steps, several students at the table on Cheng Xuyuan's left, who had just finished their meal, stood up and left.
Seeing this situation, Li Yufei said directly: "Sister, let's sit over here. There's more space here."
"I'll have someone clear the table."
Cheng Xuyuan looked at where Shen Yumo and the others were sitting, then looked at the classmates who had left, and thought to himself that these people were really great assists!
Do you think your place isn't chaotic enough? Why are you all in such a hurry to evacuate?
After dinner, can't everyone sit down and have a good exchange of feelings? Just then, a waiter came over quickly and helped Shen Yumo and others clean up the empty table.
Cheng Xuyuan and others naturally couldn't say anything at this time.
As the table was cleared, Cheng Xuyuan was just about to stand up when Fang Yuqing walked towards the counter. In just a moment, several dishes that were exactly the same as those served by Cheng Xuyuan were brought up.
"Sister Yumo, Sister Dening, I don't know what your tastes are, so I ordered two dishes first."
"If you don't have enough to eat, I'll ask Xuyuan to order more."
Fang Yuqing spoke very politely, but sat down next to Cheng Xuyuan with a smile.
By doing this, she seemed to be politely making a solemn declaration of her identity to the whole world: Cheng Xuyuan is mine.
Wu Hongmei and Ma Guangzhong both felt like sitting on pins and needles at this moment.
After all, they were familiar with Cheng Xuyuan and Shen Yumo. Although they were not familiar with Fang Yuqing, the scene at this time made them understand what had happened.
In this situation, it seems that all they can do is remain silent.
Shen Yumo looked at the dishes served and smiled, "Thank you, Yuqing. It's better than what we ordered. It's just that Cheng Xuyuan spent money."
Li Yufei glared at Fang Yuqing who acted on her own initiative, but smiled at Yu Mo and said, "Sister, he has never spent money on you before, so it's only natural that he spends money on you occasionally."
"Just consider it as making up for the past!"
