Four years single, three years widowed

Li Can's counterattack that day did not have any effect, Zhang Yan was very disapproving, and when he took Duan Wenzheng's luggage, he acted like a winner.

He probably thought that as long as he lived with Duan Wenzheng, no one could take Duan Wenzheng away.

Seeing Zhang Yan's appearance, Li Can felt a little funny, but couldn't laugh.

Near the water tower first get the month.

Who said that Zhang Yan's ideas don't make sense?

"Get off work, Manager Li?" When Secretary Kong was packing his backpack, he noticed Li Can coming out of the office.

"En." Li Can closed the office door smoothly.

Walking up to them with her bag on her shoulders, Aya said, "Hey, I heard that there is a newly opened hot pot restaurant on Zhongshan Road, which offers a [-]% discount, do you want to try it?"

"Yes." Secretary Kong readily agreed.

"I can't." Andy made a cross gesture, "I have an appointment with my boyfriend."

Aya pouted, then turned to look at Sister Chen: "Where is Sister Chen?"

"I can't either." Sister Chen's expression was unlovable, "I have to go back and help my daughter with her homework."

"Okay..." Aya looked disappointed.

Blinking at Li Can, Secretary Kong asked, "Does Manager Li want to come together?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Aya cast an expectant look at Li Can.

"I do not……"

"Ring ring ring!" The rapid ringing interrupted Li Can's refusal.

Taking out his phone, Li Can glanced at the caller ID, hesitated for a few seconds, put it to his ear: "Hello?"

"It's me, didn't I bother you?" Duan Wenzheng on the other end of the phone asked politely.

"No." Li Can paused, "Tell me."

"I have an appointment."

Duan Wenzheng was of course referring to the time of the Civil Affairs Bureau.

In fact, Li Can had already guessed the reason why Duan Wenzheng called him, but when he really heard it, his sadness was a hundred times stronger than he imagined.

"Tomorrow afternoon at 04:30." Duan Wenzheng continued.

The Adam's apple rolled, and Li Can summoned up his courage: "I—"

"That--"

They happened to speak at the same time, Li Can was interrupted by such an interruption, and the courage that had been brewed with great difficulty retreated like a tide.

"I'll see you then." After Duan Wenzheng said, he quickly cut off the call.

The interface jumped back to the main screen, Li Can lowered his eyelids, and slowly put the phone back into his pocket, unable to hide his depression.

Seeing this, Andy cleared his throat and said, "My boyfriend is waiting for me downstairs, so I'll go first, bye."

"I should go too." Sister Chen immediately picked up her bag and waved to Aya and the others, "See you tomorrow."

Andy and Sister Chen left with the crowd, and after a while, people in the entire office area left in disorder.

"Why don't I think it's better to forget today?" Secretary Kong winked at Aya quietly.

After successfully receiving the signal, Aya hurriedly nodded and agreed: "Uh, forget it." She patted her belly carelessly, "You say I gained six or seven catties after the Spring Festival, and I still want to eat hot pot, Crazy, I hahahaha..."

"Yeah, I've also gained a lot of weight." Secretary Kong pushed the chair into the office, "It's better to go another day."

"What's the name of that hotpot restaurant?" Li Can said abruptly.

Aya was taken aback: "Huh?"

Li Can looked up at them: "I want to eat."

So, Aya and Secretary Kong finally got into Li Can's car and set off for the hot pot restaurant.

Driving out of the company garage, the scenery on both sides of the road passed by, and the car was extremely quiet, and this quietness was the last thing Li Can wanted to face at this time.

"Why don't you talk?" Li Can pretended to ask casually.

The two girls sitting in the back seat looked at each other and saw surprise on each other's faces.

"A little hungry." Aya laughed, "I don't want to talk when I'm hungry."

"Then eat more later."

"Don't worry about that." Aya said, "When did I become soft-spoken when I was eating?"

Secretary Kong smiled helplessly: "Here we go again."

"What's coming again?" Aya looked innocent.

"You pretend to be good at eating every time, but I end up eating more than you every time." Secretary Kong complained.

Li Can raised the corners of his lips slightly, he could testify to Secretary Kong about this matter, Aya was indeed more talkative than eating.

"Then what can I do?" Aya defended herself, "My stomach is only so big, and I have more energy than I want."

"That's what you call, eye, greedy!" Secretary Kong commented.

"Greedy is greedy." Aya shrugged nonchalantly, "After all, who can resist the power of delicious food? Isn't that right, Manager Li?" She threw the question to Li Can.

"Don't call me Manager Li." Li Can changed the subject, "Call me by name."

Hearing this, Secretary Kong hesitated: "It's not very good..."

"I think it's okay." Aya's attitude was opposite.

Li Can glanced at Secretary Kong through the rearview mirror: "Remove the word manager, not only you, I can relax a little."

"That's right." Aya patted Secretary Kong lightly, "It's already off work, so don't be so tense."

Secretary Kong thought for a while, then smiled slightly: "Okay."

The atmosphere in the car finally became active, and Li Can's mood improved a little bit. He tried not to let himself think about Duan Wenzheng, or what will happen tomorrow.

The business of the newly opened hot pot restaurant is booming, and the long queue has reached the side of the road. Aya looked at it, pointed at the hot pot restaurant and punched the secretary, and said, "See? This is the power of delicious food."

"I know, I know." Secretary Kong replied dotingly.

"Wait?" Li Can asked their opinions.

He didn't care, he could wait or not, for fear of starving Aya and Secretary Kong to death.

"Wait!" Aya made a final decision.

The people who come to eat hot pot are in groups of three or four. The long queue looks scary, but it doesn't take long before it's their turn.

The waiter led them to the seats, and the three of them found a place to sit down. Without talking nonsense, they went directly to the ordering session.

"Okay, that's all." Aya finished a long list of dishes and closed the menu with satisfaction.

Picking up the teacup, Li Can took a sip, his eyes wandered around the brand new decoration in the store, and accidentally saw two acquaintances.

One of them had his back turned to him, but he could confirm it just from that back view.

Putting down the teacup, his feet took a step ahead of his reason, and Li Can went straight to the table, leaving the two girls behind.

"What a coincidence." Li Can stared straight at Duan Wenzheng.

After munching the food, Duan Wenzheng raised his head, dumbfounded.

"Hey! Xiaocan!" Lao Ding exclaimed in surprise, and quickly stood up, "Sit together?"

Li Can looked back at Secretary Kong and the others, suppressed the reluctance to miss the opportunity, and said, "No, I came with my friends."

"Friend?" Lao Ding looked in the direction he was looking at just now, "Those two beauties?"

Hearing these words, Duan Wenzheng finally came to his senses, turned his head and looked at the friend Li Can was talking about from head to toe.

"Yes." Li Can replied.

Soon recognizing a girl as Li Can's secretary, Duan Wenzheng swallowed the food in his mouth with peace of mind, and said, "Don't disturb others, we've almost eaten enough."

"Where is it similar?" Lao Ding retorted, "I'm not full yet."

Duan Wenzheng glared at him: "Then you don't sit down and eat quickly!"

Dare to be angry and dare not speak, Lao Ding muttered silently, and sat back on the stool.

Li Can was dissatisfied with Duan Wenzheng's bad temper, but he knew that he was the trigger, so he had no choice but to say to Lao Ding: "I'm going back, Brother Ding, take your time."

"Hey, good."

Turning around, Li Can raised his feet and walked back to his seat.

As soon as he approached, Aya and Secretary Kong stopped whispering, and both of them brushed their hair calmly, which was very unnatural.

"What are you talking about?" Li Can focused more on Secretary Kong.

"Nothing." Aya answered first, "We're talking about cosmetics."

Secretary Kong's coping ability was much worse than Aya's, her eyes were flickering, and she didn't dare to speak, which made it easy for Li Can to guess what they were talking about just now.

Secretary Kong has met Duan Wenzheng and knows about Duan Wenzheng's relationship with him. She probably told Aya about it.

Li Can didn't really care about this, what he cared about at this moment was only Duan Wenzheng.

Holding her chin with her hand, Aya tentatively asked Li Can: "Meet a friend?"

"Ah."

"How about we eat together?" Aya suggested.

Li Can was very moved by her proposal, but after much deliberation, he did not want to upset Duan Wenzheng.

"They're almost done." Li Can rejected Aya's proposal with Duan Wenzheng's words.

"Oh……"

Aya and Secretary Kong were quite disappointed.

"Eat quickly." Li Can picked up his chopsticks with a flat face.

Li Can was absent-minded after eating this hot pot, he glanced at Duan Wenzheng not far away from time to time, a little afraid that Duan Wenzheng would suddenly disappear in the next second.

No, this thing really happened, but it was not Duan Wenzheng who disappeared, but Lao Ding.

"Your other friend seems to have left." Secretary Kong saw through his doubts and whispered.

"Thank you." Li Can pursed his lips and continued to pay attention to Duan Wenzheng.

Soon after finding Duan Wenzheng leaning on crutches and leaving the stool, Li Can stood up immediately: "Have you finished eating?"

Hastily stuffing the blanched tripe into her mouth, Aya said vaguely, "Okay, okay."

"Let's go then."

Striding forward, Li Can stood in front of Duan Wenzheng: "I'll see you off."

"No need." Duan Wenzheng said, "I'll take a taxi myself."

"I'll see you off." Li Can's eyes were full of persistence.

"Li Can..."

"Hi!" Aya arrived in time with Secretary Kong on her arm, and greeted Duan Wenzheng enthusiastically.

With their help watching, Li Can was not afraid that Duan Wenzheng would sneak away, so he went to the cashier to pay the bill without worry.

I don't know what Aya and Secretary Kong said, anyway, two women against one man, Duan Wenzheng was completely defeated, so he had to compromise obediently and sit in Li Can's co-pilot.

In order of distance, send Secretary Kong first, then send Aya, Duan Wenzheng is ranked last.

The car parked steadily on the side of the road, and Aya in the back seat opened the door and got out of the car.

"See you tomorrow." She smiled and waved her hand.

"See you tomorrow." Li Can said warmly.

Turning the steering wheel to the left, the car returned to the road and drove towards Duan's house.

"They are all my colleagues." Li Can took the initiative to break the silence.

"I know." Duan Wenzheng looked out the car window.

"It's also my friend." Li Can's tone was subconsciously smug.

Unable to bear turning his head, Duan Wenzheng looked at him silently.

"Some time ago I signed up for a cooking class and learned several dishes. The best one is tomato scrambled eggs, because it is relatively simple. But now I often cook, and I plan to try cooking boiled beef in two days, no I know if I can do it well." Li Can eloquently said, "By the way, I still plan to raise a dog, but I have no idea which breed to raise right now. I don't know whether to raise a small dog like Beer or a large dog. ...Maybe I shouldn't be too entangled, any breed is fine, as long as you like it."

Duan Wenzheng frowned more and more, and asked in a deep voice: "Li Can, what do you want to say?"

A "squeak" cut through the night, and the front of the car barely stopped behind the white line.

"I don't want a divorce."
