Minghai, calling him "Daddy Daddy" with glee. Shu Minghai affectionately replied with "Baby Baby," showering her with love. Their heartwarming father-daughter relationship was truly touching to witnes...Even ten minutes late, she met him. 。Zuo Yu'an didn't come to her house often, only occasionally once in a while. He would help her open the windows for ventilation and arrange for the aunt to come over to clean. Besides that, he didn't do anything else. 。Every time I come back, I just sit quietly on the sofa in the living room, looking at every corner of the house and reminiscing about the past. 。Their story began here, with too much sweetness; and it ended here, with great pain. 。Now he was like someone with a terminal illness, afraid to seek her out. Only these lingering memories kept him company. 。After sitting for a while, Lu Ku's message came in on WeChat:

Wen Jian had dinner with Tan Dong from Hengsheng Investment tonight. The fish has been hooked. 。After he finished reading, without replying. As expected of him, Wen Jian's own money should also be spent almost. Xin Rui Vision, under the sniping of Zhuo Yuan Technology, is now a bottomless pit. Throwing more money in it is like throwing it into the sea, not even a ripple. She was at her wit's end and would inevitably seek help from capital. 。Wen Jian had always been arrogant, she always felt that there was nothing she couldn't do. 。

In her career, she accompanied Zhu YUAN on his entrepreneurial journey with Zhu Yuan Technology back then, and helped it go public all the way. 。

To make Zhu Yu'an get a divorce in life, they have to get a divorce. 。But she didn't know that Zhuoyuan Technology's IPO had nothing to do with her. 。Her skills were cultivated by Zhuo Yuanan himself. Her business acumen was also taught to her step-by-step by Zhuo Yuanan. Without his platform, she would be nothing. 。As for the divorce, she did play a role in igniting it, leading to such a tragic ending for Zhuo Yunan and Tinglan. 。So now, she has to bear all of Zhuo Yu'an’s dealings with her. 。Zuo Yu'an held his phone, twirling it in his hand unconsciously. He just felt that something was off about sitting in the living room tonight. His heart wouldn't settle down, always feeling adrift. 。

It was a sensitive feeling, like the air was different, as if someone had been there. 。He suddenly looked under the shoe rack in the hallway, his gaze was instantly drawn to the slippers, his heart almost jumped out, he hurried to the bottom of the shoe rack and took a look. 。

Yes, that's right, something was off from the moment I walked in and saw these slippers. 。

Those are Tinglan's slippers. She has a very strange habit: when others take off their shoes, they face the shoe rack with the toe inward and the heel outward. 。And she liked to take her shoes off leaning against the shoe cabinet, with the direction of her shoes opposite to everyone else's. 。Zoe Yu has a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder, so every time she goes out, she always has to arrange her slippers with her hands in the same direction as hers before she feels comfortable. 。And now, those slippers are facing the other way. 。His heart pounded like a drum, leaping with excitement. He strode towards the master bedroom and the spare room, flipping on every light switch, searching every corner meticulously. He just had to be sure she had been here, perhaps even just recently. 。Because there was still water stains in the sink, she had just been here. 。This heart ached so badly at this moment, he didn't even think, just got up and chased out, all the way from the unit door to the entrance of the community. The road outside the community was bustling with traffic, where could her shadow be He even didn't know which direction to go in order to catch up with her. 。So what if I catch up He thought dejectedly, the heart that had been frantically beating just moments ago now fell back into place, aching, but no longer vibrantly alive, like a stagnant pool. 。。Without him, without the disturbance of the Zhuo family, she could live a good life. 。Her home is in Senzhou. She never thought she would leave Senzhou. 。Lin Zhiyao: "She's back to Senzhou"

"Hmm!" Hearing her tone, Ting Lan didn't seem to have looked for her either, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. 。Lin Zhizhuo immediately changed her clothes and went out to find Shu Tinglan. But Senzhou was so big, where could she possibly find him She, just like Zhuo Y uan, stood on the street, looking around in a daze, her heart feeling incomplete. 。She called Cheng Chen and asked, "

“Has Tinglan contacted you”

"

Cheng Chen was in Qining at the time, returning to sweep his ancestors' graves for the Zhongyuan Festival. The custom in Qining is to sweep the graves of deceased relatives during the Zhongyuan Festival.

This year marks the tenth anniversary of her grandmother's passing, so her mother made her come back. 。To begin with, I was already in a terrible mood. I hadn't spoken to Lin Zhixuan in ages, and suddenly hearing her question made me angry.

“What do you want from me Why would she contact me!” Cheng Chen had been struggling with his business for the past few years, barely keeping his company afloat. The stress had taken its toll on him, making him short-tempered. 。After hanging up Lin Zhi's phone, I felt even more down. 。She knew Lin Zhiyao had always blamed her for not taking good care of Tinglan and losing him. 。These past few years, every time I think back to the last time I saw Tinglan, it's her picking up Mom from the hospital and taking her home. But she was busy with work and didn't take good care of her mother. And the last time we spoke, she said she was getting divorced and taking her mother out to relax, telling me not to worry. She really didn't contact me again. When I tried to reach her later, she was gone. 。

This group of them all feel guilty towards Tinglan. They are ashamed to find her, and even more ashamed to say they are her best friends. This guilt, over time, has turned into fear and a lack of courage. 。So every time she brought up Tinglan with Lin Zhixuan, it was a complaint against each other, and they would end on bad terms, never to contact each other again. 。The next day, under her mother's urging, she bought flowers and snacks that her grandmother liked and went up the mountain to sweep the grave. This cemetery was the best in Qīngníng, nestled among mountains and beside water with beautiful scenery and good management. 。She used to come with her mother every year on the Mid-Autumn Festival, but these past few years, she hasn't returned because she's been starting a business in Senzhou. 。This year marks the tenth anniversary of Grandma's passing, and Mom insisted she had to come back. 。Following mother's instructions, she offered flowers in an orderly manner, placed snacks neatly, and chatted with her grandmother about recent events for a while. Then, her grandmother sat aside to wait for her mother to finish. 。On the other side of her grandmother's grave, a new tomb was added. Because of its unique shape, it was shaped like a lotus flower, and she couldn't help but take another look. 。Just that one look, and she got goosebumps all over. Then, she felt a chill run down her spine. 。That lotus-shaped grave, the photo in the center, couldn't be anyone else but Shu Tinglan's mother. She hurried over and, at close range, confirmed it several times - it was indeed Tinglan's mother. 。

The pictures and names all match. 。"Where are you going" her mother called out to her. 。She could hear nothing, only seeing on the tombstone, "Daughter Shu Tinglan," and the date of death. 。More than three years ago, after she made her last phone call. 。Cheng Chen rarely cried, even during the three years she went to Senzhou to start a business. When she failed, she found the reason and persevered gritting her teeth. Even later, when she confessed to Lu Kuò, he rejected her, she didn't shed a single tear, but now she was crying uncontrollably, just feeling too sorry for Ting Lan. 。. Snowflakes landed on her shoulders, and within seconds, a small cluster had settled there. Song Jingye couldn't bear to see it. Just as he was about to take off his own coat for her, his hand sudden...
