Chapter 252: We're Boyfriend and Girlfriend

he'd been down and even a bit self-deprecating for a while. He was working hard, trying to save the Lu family. After something like this happened, he needed time to come to terms with himself. Now it...Yi Muyang didn't have much experience chasing girls. Don't look at his carefree appearance now, in fact, he was very nervous inside. He had been on edge the whole way until Shu Tinglan placed her hand in his palm, and then the worry in his heart finally eased.

His sports car was parked outside the airport, and as he walked towards it, a wave of nervousness washed over him. He shouldn't have listened to his friends' advice and tried to create some romantic surprise.

His buddies told him that any girl would like him and fall deeply in love with him. He looked at Shu Ting, thinking she probably wouldn't be into this kind of "romance".

As he neared the car, he said...

“Shall we take a taxi back”

His sports car is just within reach, why bother with other transportation

Yimu Yang gritted his teeth and walked towards his sports car.

With a click of the car lock, his sports car door swung open, followed by the slow ascent of the car's sunroof.

As the ceiling opened, the colorful balloons inside seemed to have been holding their breath for a long time, whooshing up into the sky. There were at least dozens of them, very spectacular.

Although it was late at night, the airport's outdoor parking lot was bustling with pedestrians. His sports car was already eye-catching, but with those colorful balloons, it stood out even more.

Shu Tinglan stood there in shock.

Yi Muyang was also shocked and ashamed. These were all prepared for him by his friends.

Not only that, but the entire back seat was covered with about 999 red roses. It was so over-the-top, even greasy. He got goosebumps. Before coming here, he must have been possessed to do something like this.

Shu Tinglan, to his surprise, actually laughed.

“Thank you, I really like it.” After all, it's something they put their heart into.

"Tinglan, you are so kind." Yi Muyang could only sigh with emotion.

Two people got in the car. Yi Muyang stepped on the accelerator and drove extremely fast, especially with the rose incense in the car making him dizzy. He now wished he could throw away the car and disappear completely.

When she was with Zhuo Yuan before, Zhuo Yuan was a practical type. She remembered that he had given her many things, but never flowers.

After arriving at her home, Yi Muyang said:

“Both little kids are asleep, you should rest early too, see you tomorrow.”

"Oh, you're not taking me up there" she asked.

Yi Muyang's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly replied, "Okay!"

Shutinglan explained, "Help me move the flowers upstairs. I can't move them alone."

Yi Muyang was even happier, so she really liked it

The two moved the flowers home carefully, for the children and Auntie Liu were both asleep. The living room wasn't lit brightly; only a dim light from the lamp in the entryway illuminated the space. Surrounded by the scent of roses, Yi Muyang wanted to do something, but as this was their first day officially dating, he didn't know what.

So when it was time to leave, she simply hugged Shu Tinglan and whispered, "It was a happy day. Goodnight."

"Good night," she said, watching him leave the front door. She sat down by the roses, momentarily forgetting what to do next, her thoughts adrift in the dim light. She wasn't sure if this step was the right one or the wrong one.

She wished she had a good friend to talk to. She thought if Lin Zhixuan were here, it would be great. Lin Zhixuan always seemed to have a better understanding of relationships than she did. Back when she was with Zhuo YUAN, Lin Zhixuan had advised her to stay away, but she had jumped right in.

She shook her head, why was she thinking about the past all night

Perhaps it was because I spent the whole day at the competition at Zhuo Yuan Technology, which opened the floodgates of my memory.

If there was an opportunity, Lin Zhixuan would definitely be willing to help her solve her relationship problems. However, Lin Zhixuan couldn't find her, and he didn't even dare to look for her.

After that phone call with Cheng Chen, the two stopped contacting each other until Cheng Chen closed his company in Senzhou and returned to Qining. Then they made an appointment to meet up.

Without Shu Tinglan to mediate, the two of them held some disdain for each other, especially in recent years. It wasn't just disdain, but also a growing resentment.

Lin Zhiyao resented Cheng Chen's focus on his career and his failure to help Shu Tinglan when she needed him most;

Cheng Chen resented Lin Zhi's single-minded focus on romance. He even got into a fight with Shu Tinglan because of it, ignoring her completely.

If she cared for Tinglan even a little, how could she be unaware of her mother's passing

Cheng Chen has been in a daze ever since he saw that tombstone in the cemetery. He can't imagine how Tinglan, who used to be so gentle and weak, managed to return to Qining alone with her mother's ashes and bury her. Just thinking about it makes his heart ache.

"What's up" Lin Zhixuan saw Cheng Chen had lost a lot of weight, and while he wasn't truly resentful, he just didn't know what to say.

"I'm going back to Qining," Cheng Chen said, most likely never coming back to Senzhou for the rest of his life.

Lin Zhi's heart ached, an indescribable feeling. But his words were venomous.

“I told you so, chasing after Lu Kuo like this is hopeless. A man like him...never mind.” After some thought, she felt that Lu Kuo and Cheng Chen might not be a good match either. They had never been on the same page to begin with, destined to miss each other.

"He has nothing to do with this." When Lu Kuò refused her, she had already given up completely. After thinking about it, she realized that Lu Kuò's refusal was right. It wasn't a matter of love or not, but simply that they weren't compatible. Their views on life and values were not aligned. After what happened with Zhuo Yǔān and Shū Tínglàn, Lu Kuò had let go of Chéng Chén completely, unwilling for the two of them to end up like that in the future. Love alone wasn't enough to make a relationship work. Although there was regret, there was no hesitation at all.

Lin Zhihao then fell silent, patiently waiting for Cheng Chen to speak.

Cheng Chens thought long and hard before deciding to tell the truth.

During the Zhongyuan Festival, I went back to Qining to sweep my grandmother's grave and saw Tinglan's mother.

Lin Zhi's heart skipped a beat: "Did Tinglan go back to Qining with her mother" It shouldn't be so, she had gone to Qining to find her before.

Cheng Chen shook his head. "At the cemetery, her mother's grave."

Cheng Chen's eyes welled up as he spoke, unable to forget the pain he felt when he saw the tombstone.

Lin Zhixuan asked, "What do you mean"

Her mother passed away on December 20th, three years ago, less than a month after her divorce.

I'm back in Qingshui. If you find Tinglan, or if Tinglan comes to you, please let me know.

Lin Zhiyao didn't know how she walked back home. When she got home, she just cried non-stop, which scared Fu Shenyi. He hugged her tightly and asked her what was wrong

Lin Zhiyao didn't want to speak, and even seeing Fu Shenyi made her feel annoyed. If it weren't for dating him, she wouldn't have gotten angry with Tinglan, nor would she have misunderstood things, leading to her current helplessness.s from the airport along the route, they couldn't find any clues. 。And his men kept a 24-hour watch on Zhao Tingxing, monitoring all of his communication devices, but they found nothing. He had been...
