Hearing the sound, Tang Li snapped out of her daze, put her phone away, and her expression was clearly off.
"Just finish this quick task and let's go."
Lu Jianshen frowned, feeling inexplicably choked up.
Who is Tang Li texting?
His intuition told him it couldn't be a woman, otherwise, given Tang Li's habits, he would have said it directly!
Did she have another dog outside? Lu Jianshen's mind was even more confused.
Since the main purpose of today was to take Tang Li out for dinner and celebrate, he didn't think much of it.
"Get in the car."
Lu Jianshen helped open the car door, and Tang Li casually deleted her chat history with her son, emphasizing caution!
On the way, Tang Li stopped looking at her phone, and Lu Jianshen gradually dispelled his doubts.
Ten minutes later, the two arrived at the hotel parking lot.
As Tang Li got out of the car, she vaguely saw Chu Jingyi, Chu's parents, and other people.
"Why haven't we heard anything about you and Miss Chu lately?" Tang Li asked casually.
Lu Jianshen was unhappy again. What kind of wife cares so much about her husband's scandals? She's not angry at all, and she even seems to be watching the show!
"You don't mind at all?"
Tang Li smiled gently, "I know those are all fake, of course I won't be jealous! My husband gives me enough security!"
Lu Jianshen shook his head indulgently.
Some people are quite good at managing emotional value.
Lu Jianshen explained, "Chu Jingyi's parents have been in contact with the Huo family these past few days, hoping to arrange new blind dates for their daughter!"
They probably realized that there was no hope with the Lu family, so they started thinking of other things.
Tang Li felt sorry for Chu Jingyi, but she also knew that there was nothing she could do; Chu Jingyi's abilities were limited.
Inside the restaurant, elegant piano music flowed quietly, the lighting was soft, and the atmosphere was excellent.
The restaurant has floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides, offering a beautiful view of the night.
Tang Li's table occupied the best vantage point.
"Congratulations, Mr. Tang!"
"Thank you, Mr. Lu!" Tang Li smiled and clinked glasses with him.
She had just sent a message to Shen Qingxu, instructing Shen Qingxu's assistant, Meng Jiao, to immediately go to her lounge and bring A-Lu out.
She couldn't let her precious son suffer, so he stayed in the lounge the whole time.
Tang Li also took photos and sent them to her son.
Tang Li: You're on a date with your deadbeat dad!
Ah Lu: Hmph, you didn't take me with you, I'll hold a grudge!
Lu Jianshen reached out and took Tang Li's phone.
"Who are you texting to share your daily life with? You're laughing so happily."
Tang Li's heart was about to stop beating.
At that very moment, Yan Zhenzhen called.
Glancing at the number flashing on her phone screen, she said with a smile, "Of course it's Zhenzhen, who else could it be!"
Is it really Yan Zhenzhen?
Judging from her expression just now, it clearly didn't seem like it. Besides, if she was chatting with Yan Zhenzhen, why didn't she just say so?
While Lu Jianshen was in a daze, Tang Li snatched her phone back.
"Look at you, so suspicious!"
Where is even a trace of President Lu's prestige?
Lu Jianshen felt aggrieved. "That's because you didn't give me enough security. You just disappeared without a trace. Don't do it again!"
He felt wronged.
Tang Li smiled, answered the call from Yan Zhenzhen, and chatted with her for a few minutes.
Yan Zhenzhen's voice was still loud and boisterous, which made people feel warm and friendly. "After you came back, you didn't come to see me right away. I was so heartbroken!"
Tang Li laughed and said, "Alright, alright, I'll come find you soon! Zhenzhen, I'm sorry, I've been too busy lately!"
Tang Li had just hung up the phone when she saw Lu Jianshen's scrutinizing gaze on the other end.
Oh no, she forgot to cover it up!
She has lost her memory now, so she shouldn't recognize Yan Zhenzhen.
But isn't it a bit too much to make her connect with her best friend on the phone and pretend to have amnesia?
"I...have a habit of writing a blog on social media. I know Zhenzhen and I are best friends, so you don't need to remind me!"
Lu Jianshen narrowed his eyes.
Her performance was so clumsy that Lu Jianshen saw right through it.
"Then why didn't I appear in your log?"
"It's here, but not much. Maybe... I was too focused on my relationship and forgot to keep a journal. I didn't write much during that time."
In the past two years, Tang Li's ability to spout nonsense with her eyes wide open has become increasingly impressive.
Lu Jianshen shook his head, looking helpless.
It's okay, he'll find a way to get Tang Li to admit that she's regained her memories.
"You probably don't know what Yan Zhenzhen has been through in the past five years. Her family went bankrupt."
Tang Li paused slightly as she held the knife and fork, then unexpectedly received a phone call from Zhenzhen that day.
After the two reconnected, Tang Li did not see any updates from Yan Zhenzhen on her WeChat Moments.
She didn't mention Zhenzhen's family situation either.
What happened to their family?
Lu Jianshen was certain that Tang Li was truly unaware of the changes that had occurred in the Yan family.
So he gave a brief explanation in just a few words.
Two years ago, in the spring, Yan's father's investment failed, Yan's mother fell seriously ill, and Yan Zhenzhen is now a bankrupt heiress who is having a hard time finding a job.
"As far as I know, she doesn't have much work experience and her professional skills aren't very strong. She's currently working as a waitress in a high-end restaurant, earning 5,000 yuan a month."
Tang Li's expression froze for a moment. How much her best friend must have suffered these past two years!
5,000 yuan. Yan Zhenzhen used to spend at least 20,000 yuan on a bag.
