Chapter 381: Lu Kuò Has No Chance

her first job proactively, but the other two at Hongzheng Law Firm and Sun's Law Firm were due to unavoidable circumstances that she couldn't explain. All she could say was that it was for personal r...A family of four, dressed in bright and eye-catching colors, sat contentedly even within this old shop. 。The shop is very old, even the bowls used for rice noodles have the marks of time, but they are very clean, not a speck of grease, and the taste is as good as ever. Even two picky children enjoyed it immensely. This is probably the reason why this shop has been able to persist all these years. 。The boss and his wife sat beside them watching them laugh. 。I knew you guys would stay together. 。"These days, society is too superficial. It's rare to find people like you who cherish the past." 。Countless high school graduates have walked out of here, but few return to our little shop. 。Even those who cherish the past also long for love, and you will surely be happy. 。Yes, happiness! In the familiar small shop, eating hot noodles, with children and him beside her, Shu Tinglan truly felt happiness. It was as if all the hardships of her previous life were for this moment of joy. 。No need for mansions, no need for delicacies, as long as we are together, even in such an inconspicuous little shop, a bowl of rice noodles is enough to make her feel dizzy with happiness. 。She didn't wear makeup today, but her fair cheeks looked as if she had been rouged from eating powdered food. Her eyes were especially bright, and after finishing the meal, Zhuo Yu'an couldn't help but lean over and gently peck her lips. 。

Father secretly kisses mother all day long. The two children are already used to it. Before, Shu Xiaohua would still shout for her father to kiss her too, but later she stopped shouting. It's just that the siblings have accepted this fact: Father loves Mother more than he loves them. 。

Just like occasionally waking up in the middle of the night and seeing that mom and dad aren't there, they gradually stopped crying, turned over and continued to sleep. After all, the next morning, mom and dad would be back, pretending to have been with them all along, playing the roles of loving father and mother. They see through it but choose not to say anything. 。The owner and the proprietress of the tea shop are just like watching an idol drama. The best love, the best life they can imagine is nothing more than this. 。Zhuo Y uan didn't let them treat him to a meal. When he said goodbye to them, he secretly scanned the code to pay. 。On the fourth day of Lunar New Year, the whole family dressed up neatly, bought flowers and a few small cakes, and went to the cemetery. 。For several years, Shu Tinglan had a tough time and didn't want to worry her mother, so she hadn't come to visit. But today, she felt happy and content enough to finally muster the courage to come. 。I wanted to share my joy with Mom, but as I approached the cemetery, tears welled up in my eyes. It's just that Mom left too suddenly, without even a goodbye. 。

This is her eternal pain, and also a thorn in Zhuo Yu'an's heart. Every time she thinks back to that year, she feels heartbroken that he ignored her pleas for help and blocked her. 。Many things, once missed, are gone forever. Life offers no second chances. 。When the four arrived at the cemetery, they found a bouquet of fresh flowers on top of the grave. It was obviously placed there recently. Without a second thought, they knew it must have been Cheng Chen. 。She hurriedly glanced around and saw that Cheng Chen's family was also burning incense not far away. 。In Qīníng, it is customary to burn incense for deceased relatives on the third and fourth days of the first lunar month. 。Besides her parents, there was a strange man standing beside Cheng Chen. He was tall and strong, and although he was only standing sideways, he was very imposing. 。Shu Tinglan knew that it was Cheng Chen's wedding invitation, the other half. In person, he looked more masculine than in the wedding photo. 。Zuo Yu'an also saw the man, and a flash of Lu Kuò's death crossed his mind. 。。“A very considerate man nicknamed Shao Hui came over and said, 'Don't run away, be careful not to fall.’” 。Then naturally, he took Chen's hand and walked towards Shu Tinglan and Zhu Yu'an. 。Shutinglan, seeing their clasped hands, had the same thought as Zhuo Y uan—Lu Kuo was out of the running. 。Cheng Chen introduction:

"My best friend Shu Tinglan, has mentioned you to me >>> 。"This is my...husband...Shao Hui!" Cheng Chen intentionally bypassed Zhuo Yu'an, not wanting to introduce him, and didn't know how to. 。Shutinglan hurriedly reached out to greet Shaohui. "Hello hello" 。"It's been a while." 。Shu Tinglan remembered, Shao Hui's identity was a police officer Sure enough, the temperament of a people's policeman is different, very calm and composed. 。"Tinglan, why didn't you say anything before coming back" 。"

" was also a temporary decision 。And thank you too. 。She pointed to the flowers on her mother's grave. 。Whenever Cheng Chen's family comes to sweep the tomb, they always take the opportunity to visit her mother as well, making up for her absence these past few years. 。Zhuo Yu'an had nothing to say, so he brought the two children to offer flowers and put up a cake for their grandmother. 。Cheng Chen's parents saw Shu Tinglan and the children from afar and greeted them happily: "Tinglan, you guys will have dinner with Cheng Chen at our place later." 。"

Good!" Shu Tinglan agreed. 。

This meal wasn't at Cheng Chen's place, but was instead a treat by Zhuo Yu An at an outside hotel. I sincerely thank Cheng Chen and her family for their genuine help taking care of my mother these past few years. 。

Cheng Chen is a forthright person, they would politely let others leave without refusing. 。Shao Hui is a quiet person, very steady. Both his personality and appearance are a good match for Cheng Chen. 。During that period, Zhuo Yu'an asked: “Mr. Shao, what area are you in charge of”

"Criminal" 。A very brief answer, not convenient to reveal too much. 。Zuo Y uan is not nosy. If it weren't for Lu Kuò, he wouldn't be interested in getting to know strangers at all. 。

Cheng Chen's parents naturally adored Shao Hui. Over the meal, they showered him with praise, leaving Shao Hui blushing. Cheng Chen sat beside them, a small smile playing on his lips, without the former restlessness in his eyes. 。Shao Hui is a calm person and doesn't talk much, but he will silently help Cheng Chen get the dishes she can't reach that she loves to eat, and occasionally refill her parents' water. You can see his good character in these small details. 。Cheng Chen joked to Tinglan: "My status in the family has plummeted. Shao Hui is the real son they favor." 。"Mom Cheng said: 'You have the nerve to say that, your job is all laid-back and leisurely all day long. Little Shao works hard, you don't even know how to feel sorry for him.'" 。"Shao Hui: "Chen Chen's work is also very hard." 。Cheng Chen's current work difficulty is incomparable to her previous experiences in the real estate company or during her startup phase. Therefore, she handles her current work effortlessly and appears relaxed. 。But in fact, the pressure of interpersonal relationships at work for civil servants is also huge, and it's completely different from dealing with things in a private company before. 。Shu Tinglan looked at Shao Hui and felt satisfied. He was both firm and considerate, with a righteous bearing that was most suitable for Cheng Chen right now. 。Shu Tinglan took the opportunity to whisper to Cheng Chen as they went to the restroom together: "Shao Hui is very good..." 。"

This is the honest truth as a friend" 。"You've only just met him today and you can already tell he's bad news" Cheng Chen teased her. 。actually slept through it. 。When I woke up, Tinglan was gone. 。That day, he called her countless times, but she didn't answer. 。All the words I want to say to her have no place to go, so I can only e...
