The person over there seed to have seen her too and slowly stood upright.
Tang Yanqi paused for a mont and walked toward him.
It’s cool under the shade, and the heat seed isolated from here.
"Senior, long ti no see."
"Long ti no see."
Lu Qilin was still as gentle as he was in her mory, but inexplicably, there was an indescribable sense of unfamiliarity.
After all, a three-year gap stood there, making it feel like nothing had changed, yet everything seed to have changed.
In the past, Tang Yanqi wouldn’t feel awkward due to a lack of words in the presence of Lu Qilin. Now, there was a hint of that feeling. In fact, when she reunited with Qi Cheng and Bai Bing, she also felt a mont of awkwardness, but it was very brief. Only with Sheng Jianan did it feel like they hadn’t been apart for three years, but were just in a three-day cold war.
Tang Yanqi steadied herself and smiled: "Senior, did you co to see Bingbing?"
Lu Qilin pulled at the corner of his mouth: "Just passing by."
Passing by?
Would soone passing by wait here on purpose?
But Tang Yanqi didn’t expose him and smiled: "I was passing by too, and thought Bingbing would be off work soon, so I ca to have dinner with her."
Lu Qilin looked at the ti, not yet 4:30: "She still has so ti before she’s off work. We haven’t seen each other in a long ti, should we find a place to sit? There’s a nice Italian café nearby."
Tang Yanqi was slightly startled, then nodded: "Sure."
"I saw Mr. Sheng a couple of days ago and knew you were back. I didn’t expect to see you so soon."
"You’ve seen him?"
Lu Qilin took a sip of coffee, still wearing a gentle smile like a breeze: "Yes, I happened to settle a score with him and unexpectedly found out he seems to have misunderstood sothing."
"Settle a score? Misunderstanding?"
Lu Qilin nodded: "I once told him that if he made you sad, I would definitely take you away, no matter who he is, I’d do my utmost. But in the end, he did hurt you, and I couldn’t take you away."
These words might be a bit awkward coming from soone who once pursued her, but for so reason, Tang Yanqi didn’t sense any awkwardness from Lu Qilin’s mouth. It was as if he was just talking about sothing very ordinary, like "the weather will be nice tomorrow, so rember to use sunscreen."
He wasn’t awkward, and neither did Tang Yanqi feel awkward. She smiled lightly to change the topic: "And the misunderstanding?"
At this, Lu Qilin was silent for two seconds before speaking: "He seems to think you gave a sum of money."
"Money?"
"I don’t know the specifics either, but in short, he thought the money I started my business with ca from you, or sothing about selling a house."
Tang Yanqi was stunned, selling a house?
That’s right, she did sell a house, fifty million.
But it had nothing to do with Lu Qilin, so how did Sheng Jianan misunderstand?
The thought flashed like lightning, and fragnts of the past erged in Tang Yanqi’s mind.
She sold the house, gave the money to Tang Ruhai, and during that ti, Lu Qilin happened to be leaving B City to start his law firm. He then invited them for a al, and that day, Sheng Jianan was on a business trip, and she never managed to contact him again.
Later, Mr. Sheng passed away, and she was rejected by the Sheng Family, and after her mother died, she finally broke down and left.
Back then, it didn’t feel like that, but now thinking back, it seems like everything started with that farewell al with Lu Qilin.
It may seem a bit far-fetched saying that, but it really feels like everything started from that day.
