Qiao Shinian recognized the owner of the voice—Dr. Wen Jingli.

Is he back from abroad?

"Niannian, I'll call you later." Fu Tiantian said and hung up the phone.

Looking at Wen Jingli in front of her, who had lost weight and had a darker complexion, Fu Tiantian almost didn't recognize him.

"Doctor Wen, why are you here?" Fu Tiantian asked in surprise.

Compared to before, Wen Jingli no longer has the arrogance of a favored child of heaven, but instead looks a bit haggard and numb.

"I attended an academic conference and I'm a little hungry. I remember you mentioned before that this restaurant's stir-fried dishes are delicious, so I planned to come here to eat something. I didn't expect to meet you."

Wen Jingli's voice was also hoarse, "Tiantian, you haven't had dinner either, want to eat together?"

After all, he was the man she loved deeply, and Fu Tiantian felt a little bit reluctant to see him like this.

Without looking at him coldly, Fu Tiantian said to Wen Jingli as if she were talking to a friend, "No, I've already eaten. Lu Chennan just came back from a business trip and hasn't eaten yet, so I came here to pack him some food."

Wen Jingli didn't expect Fu Tiantian to talk to him so frankly about Lu Chennan. His numb heart still felt a little painful.

"Tiantian, how have you been lately?" Wen Jingli asked.

Fu Tiantian pretended not to notice the disappointment on Wen Jingli's face. She said in a relaxed tone, "It's fine. How about you? When did you return to Haicheng?"

"I've been back for a few days, but I've been busy with various things and haven't contacted my colleagues and friends."

Wen Jingli looked at Fu Tiantian, who was now dressed like a workplace elite, and said, "Tiantian, I heard that you resigned from the hospital. Are you adapting to your current job?"

Fu Tiantian nodded. "Not bad. Although there are many things I don't understand, the company has many experienced talents. I will learn while doing and slowly get the hang of it."

Wen Jingli is not good at small talk, especially with his ex-wife who has a partner. He doesn't know what to say naturally.

But Wen Jingli was reluctant to end the topic like this. He expressed his concern in an unskilled way, "Tiantian, don't make yourself too tired. Pay more attention to rest."

Fu Tiantian knew that Wen Jingli was trying to force a conversation, so she smiled and said, "Qiao Shinian asked me to invest some money. I am one of the shareholders of the medical beauty institution. It is equivalent to making money for myself. The hard work is worth it."

Wen Jingli wanted to say something when his video suddenly sounded. After looking at the contact, Wen Jingli's expression became numb and helpless again.

Fu Tiantian knew that the video was either sent by Wen's mother or Ni Manyao. Just as the waiter brought her the packed food, Fu Tiantian stood up and said, "Doctor Wen, you go ahead. I'm leaving first."

Wen Jingli stood up and wanted to keep her, but he knew he had no right to do so, so he could only nod woodenly.

When Fu Tiantian walked out of the restaurant carrying the dishes, she heard the voice of Wen Jingli's mother crying and wailing in his hands.

"Jingli, where have you been? Come back quickly. That bitch Ni Manyao wants to sneak out again. She is so restless. Take her to the hospital tomorrow and do a paternity test with the baby in her belly..."

No wonder Wen Jingli looked so haggard. He used to never care about any family affairs, but now he was entangled in all kinds of trivial matters, and even working with peace of mind became a luxury.

Fu Tiantian walked to the car while sighing, but saw a handsome man getting out of a blue car in front of him - Lu Chennan.

Lu Chennan was still wearing a formal suit. When he saw her, he couldn't wait to give her a hug, "Tiantian!"

Fu Tiantian leaned on Lu Chennan's arms with some surprise, "Didn't you say you would meet me directly? Why are you here?"

Lu Chennan lowered his head and kissed Fu Tiantian. "It feels like a long time since we last met. I haven't seen you for two days because I was on a business trip. I didn't want to wait any longer, so I came here to pick you up."

Fu Tiantian felt a little sweet in her heart. She glared at Lu Chennan and said, "You used to say that Mo Xiuyuan was a jerk, but aren't you the same?"

"How can Mo Xiuyuan compare to me!"

Lu Chennan wanted to kiss Fu Tiantian again, but when he saw Wen Jingli not far away, he paused slightly.

Fu Tiantian turned her head and found that Wen Jingli came out without eating.

He also saw them, and stood there motionless, looking sad as if he had been hit by something.

"Let's go." Fu Tiantian took Lu Chennan's hand.

Lu Chennan nodded.

In the car, Fu Tiantian told Lu Chennan that she had just encountered Wen Jingli.

Lu Chennan held her in his arms, "Tiantian, you don't need to explain to me. I'm just a little worried that you'll be soft-hearted. After all, Dr. Wen obviously still loves you."

Fu Tiantian rolled her eyes at Lu Chennan and said, "He already has a wife and children. Who are you trying to annoy by saying such things?"

Lu Chennan hugged Fu Tiantian tightly, "Then if you say a few words that you only love me, I won't worry anymore."

"..." Fu Tiantian.

……

That night, when Fu Tiantian and Qiao Shinian were video chatting, they saw Huo Yanci was also there.

Huo Yanci came to pick up the little queen. He was busy these days, so Aunt Wang helped take care of the kitten.

Fu Tiantian and Qiao Shinian talked about meeting Wen Jingli. Lu Chennan came over and put his arm around her shoulders. "Tiantian, the soup is ready. Would you like to eat some with me?"

"Tsk, Lu Chennan, you are so outstanding, gentle and considerate, and you can cook, leaving other men with no chance to survive." Qiao Shinian joked.

However, Lu Chennan said to Huo Yanci behind her with a little smugness, "Brother Ci, did you hear that? Shi Nian also recognizes me!"

Huo Yanci pursed his lips, walked over and hung up the video for Qiao Shinian, "Don't praise him, he gets carried away easily."

"..." Qiao Shinian.

The next day, when Qiao Shinian woke up, she found that Aunt Wang had not only prepared porridge, side dishes, and milk for her, but also a sandwich.

The sandwich contained vegetables, meat and eggs, but the appearance was really bad. The fried egg inside even had small burnt circles.

Hearing Qiao Shinian getting up, Aunt Wang walked into the restaurant.

Seeing Qiao Shinian looking at the sandwich, Aunt Wang said, "Miss Qiao, I usually make Chinese breakfast more often, so the sandwiches are not so pretty, but they taste pretty good. Would you like to try it?"

Qiao Shinian felt a little reluctant to refuse the hospitality, so she took a small bite. The taste was... hard to describe.

In order not to hurt Aunt Wang's face, Qiao Shinian said tactfully, "Aunt Wang, I don't like sandwiches either. You should just make it according to your habits in the future."

Aunt Wang nodded repeatedly, "I see, Miss Qiao, I'm going to the kitchen to get busy, call me if you need anything."

Watching Aunt Wang fleeing in panic, Qiao Shinian wondered, was it because her tone was too harsh?

After breakfast, Qiao Shinian called the driver. She planned to go to MQ. Her uncle said that he had found similar spices and asked her to go over to confirm.

When getting ready to get on the elevator, Qiao Shinian met Huo Yanci.

He was handsome and straight in his handmade suit, but his face was not so pretty, as if he was depressed about something.

"What's wrong? Has your dad given you a difficult problem again?" Qiao Shinian asked curiously.

Huo Yanci didn't want to talk about this at all, he just said calmly that it was okay.

Then he told Qiao Shinian a piece of news -

Li Shuyan rented a villa in the suburbs.
