Chapter 125 He always treated him as a friend, but he actually wanted to sleep with his wife
Somehow the news of Cheng Qian's divorce got out and reached Qiao Silin's ears. The first thing Qiao Silin did when he got to work was to come to her office and knock on her door.
Cheng Qian was analyzing the data on the computer. Seeing him coming over, she smiled and said, "Dr. Qiao, what's up?"
"Are you divorced?" Qiao Silin asked her first.
Cheng Qian was stunned and asked bitterly, "How did Dr. Qiao know?"
"I've been following this matter, so of course I knew about it right away." Qiao Silin walked over to her desk, resting his hands on it, and looked down at her. "Cheng Qian, he didn't give you any trouble about the divorce, did he? Did he put forward any harsh conditions?"
Cheng Qian shook her head and said softly, "No, we just went through the normal divorce procedures."
Qiao Silin looked unconvinced: "Boss Li doesn't have any feelings for you. If you ask for a divorce, you're just stepping on his pride. Will he really let you go so easily?"
Cheng Qian couldn't help but laugh when she heard Qiao Silin's analysis: "It was a bit difficult at first, but something happened that cleared up some misunderstandings, so it became much easier."
"It's better to get divorced. He doesn't like you anyway. If you don't get divorced, will you keep him to celebrate the New Year?" Qiao Silin sneered coldly.
At this moment, a cold male voice came from outside the door: "Do you want to set off fireworks, Dr. Qiao? It's not even the New Year yet."
Qiao Silin shuddered all over and turned his head stiffly, only to see Li Zhinan standing outside the door holding a bouquet of roses.
Cheng Qian also saw him, and at the same time, saw the flowers in his hand, and was stunned.
Qiao Silin touched his nose awkwardly and said, "I suddenly remembered that I have something to do in the lab, so I'll leave first."
Cheng Qian noticed Qiao Silin's embarrassment and laughed inexplicably.
When Li Zhinan saw Cheng Qian smiling because of Qiao Silin's words, he felt a tightness in his chest.
It has been a long time since he saw Cheng Qian smile so naturally and sincerely in front of him.
After Qiao Silin left, Li Zhinan walked in and said, "Let's have lunch together."
Cheng Qian glanced at him indifferently: "Sorry, I'm busy."
"I just passed by the flower shop and saw a batch of newly arrived roses. I remember you also liked this smoky purple rose before." After saying this, Li Zhinan handed the flowers to Cheng Qian.
Cheng Qian looked at the flower and was stunned for a moment.
Li Zhinan was still waiting for her to take it, hold it in his arms, and then say something about her love.
"Do you know why I said I liked this flower before? It was because you bought it." Cheng Qian slowly leaned back in her chair and said in a calm voice, "I don't like it now because you bought it. Sorry, I still have a lot of work to do. Please leave."
Li Zhinan: "..."
Cheng Qian, who always treated him gently, seemed to have disappeared.
In her eyes, his flattery became dispensable and useless.
"Cheng Qian, I just... just thought you would like it." For a moment, Li Zhinan didn't know what excuse to make his sudden visit seem decent.
Cheng Qian continued to stare at the computer, her voice cold: "Don't send me off again in the future, leave now."
Li Zhinan's heart felt like it was cut by a knife. He did not take the flowers away, but just put them on the desk and turned away.
Cheng Qian looked at the bouquet of flowers and frowned.
After a while, an assistant came in to deliver something, and Cheng Qian asked him to take the flowers and dispose of them.
When the assistant saw that it was a rare rose, he immediately exclaimed, "Dr. Cheng, you are throwing away such a beautiful flower?"
Cheng Qian hummed: "I don't like it."
"Can you give it to me... I like it." The assistant asked cautiously.
"Take it if you like it." Cheng Qian was not stingy.
"Thank you, I love it so much, it's so beautiful." The assistant happily went out holding the flowers.
At around 1:00 p.m., a photo came to Li Zhinan's phone. In the photo, a woman left Cheng Qian's office holding the flowers he had given her.
Li Zhinan's heart was stabbed again, and an inexplicable irritability surged up.
Could it be that he calculated wrongly?
He thought the divorce was only temporary and that as long as he put in some effort, Cheng Qian would soon become addicted to him.
Now it seems that Cheng Qian's heart is really not with him anymore.
Li Zhinan was stunned for a long time and didn't even have the heart to do his work. He glanced at the time and it was time to pick up the child.
He sent a message to Ye Zhu, telling her not to go, and that he would go to pick up Xiao Ye.
At 3:50, Li Zhinan's car was already parked in the parking lot outside the school gate.
He pushed the door open, got out of the car, and walked towards the school gate with his long legs.
Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure and stepped forward: "Huai Jing, why are you here?"
Chu Huaijing turned around and saw that it was him. He greeted him with a smile: "Zhi Nan, what a coincidence, my nephew also goes to school here, in the same class as Xiao Ye."
Li Zhinan's eyes paused slightly. So, without him knowing, Cheng Qian came to pick up the child some time ago. Could she and Chu Huaijing meet each other often?
"Why did you come to pick up the child today?" Chu Huaijing asked him curiously.
Li Zhinan's face froze for a moment, and he laughed dryly, "I came because I had some free time."
"Your company's stock price has fallen sharply. Is it because of your divorce with Cheng Qian?" Chu Huaijing has been paying attention to this matter.
Li Zhinan scoffed lightly: "I didn't expect that you have always been paying attention to Cheng Qian's affairs."
When Chu Huaijing was asked this, his expression changed: "Zhi Nan, would you mind if I said I like Cheng Qian?"
Li Zhinan stopped in disbelief and looked at Chu Huaijing with a serious expression.
Chu Huaijing continued, "As friends, we've all seen your marriage to her. I know you don't like her, and now that you're divorced, you won't interfere with other people liking her, right?"
"Huai Jing, I always treat you as a friend..." Li Zhinan felt like he was stabbed in the back. The knife was quite painful because it pierced his heart.
He had always treated him as a friend, but he actually wanted to sleep with his wife...
Chu Huaijing nodded: "Yes, I have always regarded you as a friend. Because you are my friend, I dare not even think about this matter before you two get divorced."
"You didn't dare to think about it, but you did it." Li Zhinan's voice was even more sarcastic: "You and Cheng Qian were together at that wedding banquet, right? You went to buy Chinese medicinal herbs together, but you didn't mention it to me."
Chu Huaijing didn't expect Li Zhinan to know about that. He was stunned: "Did Cheng Qian tell you?"
"Don't worry about how I know this. Don't you deserve an explanation?" Li Zhinan stared at him angrily. "I don't believe you'd ever be obsessed with someone else's wife."
Chu Huaijing's face showed a trace of guilt: "Zhi Nan, I went to buy medicinal herbs for my grandma that day. Since I don't know much about medicinal herbs, I happened to meet Cheng Qian and asked her for help."
"Since you are helping me, what do you have to hide? Why don't you say it?" Li Zhinan's voice was a little aggressive.
"Because even if I tell you, you don't care, so why bother?" Chu Huaijing's words were sharp and hit the nail on the head.
Li Zhinan felt his throat tighten, and for a moment, he didn't know how to fight back.
Chu Huaijing's expression darkened: "You don't like her, Zhinan."
