Throughout the afternoon, Meng Yanran felt a little restless, and even Lin Zhengnan, who was always cold and stern, felt it.

Because there was a lot of preparatory work for the project, Meng Yanran usually came to ask Lin Zhengnan for advice on anything she didn't understand.

But today, Lin Zhengnan only asked her to correct a typo in one place, and she corrected it three times.

No matter how nervous people are, they will find that something is wrong with Meng Yanran.

"Are you feeling a little uncomfortable?" Lin Zhengnan asked.

"Ah," Meng Yanran hesitated for a moment, "No, no."

Lin Zhengnan pointed to the document in front of her, and Meng Yanran realized that the tip of her pen had been pointing at the same place, causing a large ball of ink to smudge there.

"sorry Sorry……"

Only then did Meng Yanran come back to her senses, and hurriedly wiped it off with a tissue.

As a result, the ink became more and more dizzy, and it was originally a small ball, but now it has become a large piece.

It's getting messier now.

Lin Zhengnan quickly stopped her, "It's okay, don't worry about it, it's nothing important."

"Sorry about that."

Looking at her "masterpiece", Meng Yanran blushed a little.

In the process of wiping, she accidentally got some ink on her hands.

Lin Zhengnan sighed, and dragged her to the bathroom to clean up.

Meng Yanran lowered her eyes, rubbing the ink marks on her hands one by one.

"Is there too much pressure recently?" Lin Zhengnan stood beside her.

She knew that Meng Yanran had recently accepted a very important project, and it was really hard recently.

Meng Yanran shook her head lightly, "It's okay."

Lin Zhengnan obviously didn't believe it, "Don't push yourself too hard, you have been absent-minded this afternoon, did you encounter any difficulties in the project?"

After Meng Yanran finished washing her hands, she took out a piece of paper and smiled, "No, Minister Lin, maybe it's because he didn't have a good rest at noon."

Seeing that she didn't want to say anything, Lin Zhengnan didn't ask any more questions.

He just told Meng Yanran that if she encountered any difficulties in the project, as long as it was within her ability, I would definitely help her solve it.

Meng Yanran smiled slightly, only after getting along for a long time did she realize that Lin Zhengnan is typically the kind of person who is cold-faced and warm-hearted.

Lin Zhengnan saw that she was not in the mood to continue working, so he asked her to get off work and go home in advance.

Meng Yanran thought about it, sorted out some things, and prepared to take them home to continue working on the project.

In a different environment, it should be much calmer.

After returning home, she really calmed down a lot, and the inspiration for the project kept coming.

By the time she rubbed her sore neck and raised her head from a pile of documents, it was already 7 o'clock.

Thinking of seeing Yan Jingheng later, Meng Yanran slumped back on the table like a deflated ball.

She squinted her eyes, slightly easing the soreness in her lower eyes.

Meng Yanran pulled herself together and tidied up the messy desktop.

What should come can't be avoided. Since Yan Jingheng came to her for the project, it means that he himself is not completely sure.

But if he wants to threaten her with the project...

She is not the same Meng Yanran as before, no matter how Yan Jingheng treats her, she will definitely return it ten times and a hundred times back!
When Meng Yanran tidied up and came downstairs again, Mother Meng had already prepared dinner.

"Yan Ran, are you going out again?" Mother Meng asked.

"Well, Mom and Dad, you don't have to wait for me to eat."

Meng Yanran said while changing shoes at the door.

Mother Meng said distressedly: "It's all ready, why don't you eat something before going out?"

Father Meng also echoed beside him.

"It's too late, Mom and Dad, you guys are delicious."

After speaking, there was a sound of closing the door.

Mother Meng sighed, "Why is Yanran so busy these days, and the food doesn't taste good, how can the body bear it...you're still eating!"

Meng's father was slapped heavily on the hand holding the vegetables.

"Ouch, why did you hit me?!"

Mother Meng said angrily: "You only know how to eat! Don't you know how to care about your daughter?"

Father Meng felt at ease, "Jiani, Yanran and Junyang have grown up and know how to take care of themselves, so we don't have to worry too much."

"Your heart is very broad."

After saying this, but seeing that Father Meng's room was empty at night, she still gave him another bowl of rice.

"Eat well, you!" said and handed the bowl to Father Meng.

Father Meng took it with a smile, "Okay, let us two old guys stop worrying about it and eat well."

Mother Meng glanced at him angrily, but still picked up the bowl.

After Meng Yanran went out, she asked the driver to take her to her destination.

The old place that Yan Jingheng mentioned was the Chinese restaurant they most often ate in when they were in college.

That restaurant is not high-end, but the decoration has a special flavor.

The chef of this restaurant is from Sichuan, and the taste of the dishes is very suitable for Meng Yanran's taste.

So when she was in college, she and Yan Jingheng often met to have dinner at this restaurant.

She didn't understand, why did she meet here today?
She didn't believe that Yan Jingheng was doing it to miss the old relationship.

If he really misses the old love, in the last life, he wouldn't let his subordinates drag him to kill the child abruptly.

This restaurant is not far from Meng's house, but Meng Yanran has never been there since she got married.

A big reason is that Yan Jingheng is often not at home, she is alone, and she has no desire to go.

After a while, she arrived at the place.

The decoration here is exactly the same as before.

It's just that the signboard in front of the store is a bit old. After so many years of wind and rain, it has precipitated a little sense of vicissitudes.

After Meng Yanran got out of the car, she hesitated at the door for a while.

There are too many memories of her in full bloom here.

Now these memories have all become the most poisonous thorn in her heart.

She made up her mind.

Meng Yanran, now you are here for the Meng family, you are no longer a carefree girl.

She forced herself to pull herself together.

With alienation and desolation all over her body, Meng Yanran walked into this place she hadn't been to for many years.

Because it is night, there are more customers in the store than during the day.

But as soon as Meng Yanran walked in, she still saw Yan Jingheng sitting by the window.

Her heart seemed to be hit by something, and her eyes were a little sour.

The place where he sat was the seat they sat most often when they came to college.

Because Meng Yanran once said a word.

She said that she likes to look at the busy world and taste the light beauty in front of her eyes.

Yan Jingheng remembered it when he was in college. Every time he came, he would deliberately choose a seat by the window.

When Meng Yanran looked at him, Yan Jingheng also saw the person opposite.

The love eyes are gone, leaving only indifference and alienation.

"Boss Yan, what's the matter with you looking for me?"

After Meng Yanran sat down, she went straight to the topic.

She didn't want to have too much entanglement with him anymore, if it wasn't for the project, she wouldn't have attended the appointment at all.

Yan Jingheng didn't answer his words, but called the waiter instead.

Yan Jingheng: "According to what I ordered before, let's serve."

The waiter said hello and left.

Meng Yanran frowned, "Don't waste any more time, I'm not here to have dinner with you."

Yan Jingheng touched the cigarette subconsciously, but held back when he saw the person opposite.

"Isn't it okay to chat while eating?"

"No," Meng Yanran replied neatly, "If Boss Yan just wants to find someone to eat, then I won't accompany you."

With that, she stood up.

Yan Jingheng leaned back in his chair and said lightly: "I will not let go of this project."

"That's a coincidence, I, Meng, think so too."

Meng Yanran looked at him without timidity.

"Meng Yanran, do you think you can compete with me?" Yan Jingheng frowned and looked at him.

It's such a posture again, Yan Jingheng is like this in marriage, looking down on her all the time.

Meng Yanran only felt extremely disgusted, "Yan Jingheng, it's enough for you to take care of yourself."

Yan Jingheng tapped the table repeatedly, "How about we make a bet?"

Meng Yanran didn't know what he was planning, so she sat down again and looked directly at him, "What bet?"

Yan Jingheng: "Don't you want a divorce? Let's bet on the divorce certificate."

Meng Yanran narrowed her eyes, "How do you bet?"

Sure enough, it was only in this way that her interest could be aroused. Now, that's probably the only thing left between the two of them.

Yan Jingheng couldn't help smiling wryly.

"If this project is taken by your Meng family, I will go with you to the Civil Affairs Bureau to apply for a divorce certificate. However, if it is taken by our Yan family..."

Meng Yanran clenched her clothes tightly, "Then what?"

"Then..." Yan Jingheng spoke slowly, as if afraid that she might not be able to hear clearly, "Then annul the last divorce agreement."

Meng Yanran didn't expect him to make such a request.

"Yan Jingheng, what do you mean?"

"That's what you heard."

Yan Jingheng didn't want to explain too much to her.

While the two were talking, the dishes were almost ready.

Yan Jingheng didn't order much, two dishes, one soup, and one cold dish.

But these dishes are obviously not Yan Jingheng's taste.

It is covered with green and red peppers, and you can smell the spiciness before you even eat it.

This is not Yan Jingheng's taste, it's all her favorite food.

But Meng Yanran didn't come here to eat, nor did she have any intention of eating.

She didn't understand why Yan Jingheng did these things.

First he asked her to come to the old place, and then he proposed to void the divorce agreement, and now he specially ordered a table of dishes that she likes.

But all this seemed extremely ridiculous to her.

Meng Yanran didn't move her chopsticks.

Yan Jingheng also only drank a little soup, and the spicy dishes were not touched at all.

Yan Jingheng likes sweet and sour, but avoids spicy food.

It is the taste of Suzhou.

Neither of them spoke until Yan Jingheng finished the last sip of soup, and Meng Yanran stood up.

She said, "Since you don't like it, why did you order it?"

After Meng Yanran left, Yan Jingheng sat in the store for a long time.

After the customers who sat in the store left, the dishes in front of them had already cooled down.

He picked up the chopsticks, picked up a pepper and put it in his mouth.

The spicy taste overflowed in his mouth, which was a taste he never liked.

But he swallowed it anyway.

In fact, there is no such thing as dislike, just not used to it.

But the previous Meng Yanran never forced him to get used to things he didn't like.
