"Mr. Xiao Zhong, what a coincidence, you also come here for dinner?" A fat, bald old man blocked Zhong Nian's way, with a look of embarrassment on his face.

Zhong Nian frowned, and responded without emotion: "Well, Principal Huang."

The man in front of her is the vice-principal of University A. There are countless bad reviews about him. A teacher who usually has a good relationship once told her that she must stay as far as possible from Principal Huang, or else she will be targeted by him. It's over.

Zhong Nian always kept his colleague's words in mind, but he didn't expect to encounter such unlucky luck today, and the man's squinting expression made people feel nauseous.

However, this man didn't know it, so he squeezed out a handsome smile and took a step forward: "Mr. Xiao Zhong, it's better to meet by chance, why don't you go to my place for dinner? Just about some problems in your teaching We can talk."

"I'm sorry, Principal Huang, I have an appointment with a friend." Zhong Nian was extremely disgusted, turned around and left after speaking regardless of his sudden expression.

Principal Huang immediately became angry, and he groaned in his heart, without even thinking about it, he stretched out his big fat hand towards Zhong Nian!

Zhong Nian has always been sensitive, and was about to escape, but he didn't expect to hear a scream!
"Ah! It hurts!"

Turning around, Principal Huang's right hand was pinched hard by someone's wrist, his face turned pale from the pain, and the person who restrained him turned out to be... Xia Yan.

"Get out!" Xia Yan's face was livid, and he tried his best to suppress his anger and spit out a word at Principal Huang.

"You!" Principal Huang originally wanted to yell back, but when he saw that the person behind him was Xia Yan, he stopped on the spot, and even his speech became inflexible, "Xia... President Xia, I'm sorry, I, I ...Let's go..."

Frightened, he ran away scrambling, not wanting to get Zhong Nian.

Xia Yan withdrew his gaze and saw Zhong Nian standing there, a lot of words deep in his throat finally turned into one sentence: "Nian Nian, are you okay?"

He really wanted to pull her to his side for a closer look, but he held back the moment he stretched out his hand.

"I'm fine." Zhong Nian replied in a low voice and glanced over his head, not because he didn't want to speak, but because he didn't know what else the two of them could say under the current situation. , she could feel it, and it was because of this that she felt even more embarrassed.

In the end, she didn't want to continue, she raised her head, her eyes were clear: "I'll go back first."

"Wait!" Xia Yan hurriedly called out to her.

"Anything else?"

Xia Yan hooked his lips mockingly, the light in his eyes gradually dimmed, and finally he uttered three words bitterly: "I'm sorry."

For the past two days, he suffered from insomnia all night long, Xia Xia's words kept echoing in his mind, and then he finally figured it out, aside from his deal with grandpa, those things he did really hurt Zhong Nian, and hurt each other's feelings.

Zhong Nian was taken aback, she didn't expect Xia Yan to stop her to say this, for a moment, she didn't know how to respond.

It's hard for her to convince herself to forgive him for the things he did.

Because of her silence, the atmosphere froze quickly.

Xia Yan smiled wryly, moved her lips, and when she wanted to tell her not to be in trouble, Li Tezhu ran over in a panic!

"President Xia! Something happened to Miss Xia!"

Xia Yan's face suddenly became ugly, he almost gritted his teeth and asked: "What happened?! Didn't you ask someone to follow you?!"

Li Tezhu felt dereliction of duty and dared not excuse himself.

"Where is my sister?! Take me there!" Xia Yan shouted out short of breath.

"Xia Yan!" Zhong Nian stopped him and said calmly, "I'll go with you."

She didn't miss the panic and fragility that flashed in his eyes just now. She has always known what Sister Xia Xia meant to him. Now that something happened to Sister Xia Xia, she was afraid that he would lose control of his emotions. It's important, she can't rest assured.

Xia Yan didn't speak, just nodded his head with his lips pressed tightly, and then walked outside quickly.

Zhong Nian followed closely behind.

After getting into the car, the two sat in the back seat, Xia Yan acted as if strangers should not get close to them.

Zhong Nian thought for a while, picked up the phone and called Su Yuan: "Su Yuan, something happened to Xia Xia, I'm worried, go and see her, and say sorry to everyone."

When he heard that something happened to Xia Xia, Su Yuan asked worriedly, "Is it serious?"

"I don't know yet, Xia Yan and I are going there together now." Zhong Nian didn't hide it deliberately, but told the truth.

Hearing Xia Yan's name at first, Su Yuan still felt uncomfortable, but soon he was relieved, and said: "Then you go first, call me when you arrive, and I will pick you up later."

"it is good."

She didn't avoid Xia Yan, nor deliberately lowered her voice, so Xia Yan heard it clearly.

In a place where Zhong Nian could not see, the bitterness and sadness at the corner of Xia Yan's mouth became more and more intense.

In the box of the clubhouse.

"Niannian left?" As soon as Su Yuan ended the call, Lu Qinglan approached, "What happened?"

Su Yuan briefly explained the matter.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was an instant silence in the box.

"Are you so relieved to follow Nian Nian?" Gu Lingxiu broke the silence, looked at him with a half-smile, fearing that the world would not be chaotic, and said, "In case Xia Yan deliberately shows weakness or something, you are not afraid that Nian Nian will be soft-hearted and be punished." Abducted?"

Su Yuan took a sip of the red wine calmly, and confidently replied with three words: "Don't worry."

When Xia Yan first appeared, maybe he was really worried, but after what happened last time, he became more and more confident in the relationship between the two of them, Nian Nian's heart was on him, No matter how hard Xia Yan tried, he couldn't take it away.

Gu Lingxiu touched his nose and smiled: "That's right, you should be so confident."

Su Yuan ignored him and just gave him a blank stare.

Gu Lingxiu didn't care, but turned to Ye Tingshen again, and asked, "Ye Huli, Xia Yan, do you still need to pay attention? He didn't get what he wanted in the bidding meeting, so maybe there will be some tricks in the future."

When Xia Yan was mentioned, Xu Chen seemed to be a little interested, and said, "Actually, Xia Yan, if he hadn't stood on the opposite side of us, he might still be a good business partner. The position of the head of the Xia family is so important." ?”

They all knew why Xia Yan came to City A to deal with Ye Tingshen, but he still felt a little pity in his heart. He hadn't met such a strong competitor for a long time.It's a pity that if you have different positions, you are destined not to be friends.

"I don't know if it's important or not. I just know that even without Xia Yan, there will still be other members of the Xia family coming to City A." Ye Tingshen shook the cup in his hand gracefully, as if he didn't care about Xia Yan at all. "If there is a back move, then follow up. If there is no nature, it is the best."

"It's true, anyway, you, Ye Huli, are not afraid." Gu Lingxiu said with a smile.

The topic of Xia Yan was quickly dismissed, and they chatted about other interesting things while eating.

Qin Xin quietly approached Lu Qinglan, and called her falteringly: "Lanlan..."

"En?" Lu Qinglan looked up suspiciously.

In the past, she must have immediately realized that Qin Xin's appearance was for Shi Xiaorui, but since she was pregnant, she occasionally became unresponsive.

So when she looked at Qin Xin with a confused face, Qin Xin almost didn't panic.

"That's...that's..." Even after a long time, he still didn't finish a sentence.

Jiang Ranran couldn't stand it anymore, and said in disgust for him, "Lanlan, he just wanted to ask Shi Xiaorui."

Lu Qinglan suddenly realized.

Qin Xin blushed very rarely, looked up at her tentatively, mustered up the courage and finally asked: "I heard that she is on a business trip, when will she be back?"

"I don't know." Lu Qinglan directly shattered his expectation.

"Lanlan!" Qin Xin cried out, but before he could speak, he was frightened back by Ye Tingshen's warning eyes.

Knowing that this fox Ye is very fond of his wife, he shrank his neck and lowered his voice depressedly: "Lanlan, do you really not know, or are you still unwilling to tell me?"

"I really don't know." Lu Qinglan spread her hands helplessly, "Now Xiao Gu is in charge of the magazine's affairs. I haven't been there for a few days, so I really don't know."

As soon as she finished speaking, Qin Xin became even more depressed.

Lu Qinglan sighed slightly, and after thinking about it, she said: "Since she doesn't want you to know, so what if you ask? After chasing her to the place where she is on a business trip? Or just waiting for her to come back? Give her some time." .”

"If I knew today, why bother?" Jiang Ranran glared at Qin Xin angrily, "Why didn't I think of it at the time? Are you in a hurry now?"

Qin Xin's face turned pale.

"Ranran..." Seeing this, Gu Lingxiu pulled her back, signaling to stop talking.

Jiang Ranran sighed, and did not speak again as he was obedient.Shi Xiaorui is a good girl, so when she knew what Qin Xin did to her, she was really angry, even though Qin Xin really loved Shi Xiaorui.

But now...

Ye Ting patted Qin Xin's shoulder deeply, Qin Xin raised his head, picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank the wine without saying a word.

No one stopped him, because everyone knew that he was actually not feeling well.

Lu Qinglan and Ye Ting looked at each other deeply, and finally she cleared her throat and said, "My mother said that when you are free, go over to have dinner, and she called Shi Xiaorui, no..."

Before she finished speaking, Qin Xin suddenly raised her head and said nervously and excitedly: "I'm free! I'm free! She's going too? Are you sure?"

"I haven't had time to ask her yet, no matter what, I have to wait for her to come back from a business trip, right?" Lu Qinglan was speechless and amused.

With these words, Qin Xin immediately came to life, sweeping away the decadence just now.

At the dinner table, everyone chatted about other topics.

When it was almost time to eat, Su Yuan checked the time and decided to pick up Zhong Nian.

Hospital, senior ward.

Xia Yan's hanging heart finally let go, and after bending down to tuck in the quilt for Xia Xia, he turned around with a gloomy face.

Zhong Nian wanted to comfort him, but the words lingered on his lips, but he still didn't say it.

Xia Yan ignored her for a while, and stared at Li Tezhu who was beside him sharply: "Have you found it?"
