At 3: 30 in the afternoon, Chen Lan was tricked by Chen Hansheng to look for Xiao Rongyu. She didn't know anything and thought that her brother and Little Yu 'er's sister-in-law still had a good relationship.
Xiao Rongyu wasn't hard to find. She was usually at Dong University or Rongsheng Law Firm in Xinjiekou. Chen Lan didn't need to call in advance to make an appointment. She went directly to the 1802 Law Firm in the Guomao Building.
It was almost the end of the year, and the law firm was much more relaxed. Chinese people were more traditional. They didn't want to cause trouble before the Spring Festival. Even if there were conflicts, they would wait until the next spring to file a lawsuit or go to court.
Gao Wen was drinking coffee in her office. She was in a good mood. Rongsheng Law Firm's reputation was growing, and their income was increasing. Their business had changed from civil cases to financial disputes, and there were even a few cases involving foreign countries.
They were able to achieve this because of the international marriage lawsuit, Professor Sun Biyu's support, and now the boss of Nutshell Electronics, Chen Hansheng.
For some business cases, Chen Hansheng would not only provide business advice, but also find some friends to help persuade them, such as Cheng Dejun and Wang Zhijie. He even knew many of the giants in the internet industry, such as Hangzhou Ma, Shenzhen Ma, NetEase Ding, and so on.
Gao Wen was the last to react. In a few years, Chen Hansheng might very well be one of the "Big Shots".
Ding dong!
The doorbell rang. Gao Wen tilted her head and saw that it was Chen Hansheng's sister, Chen Lan. She was probably here to look for Xiao Rongyu.
Chen Lan was as brave as her brother. She ran to Xiao Rongyu's office as if no one was around. When she realized that Xiao Rongyu wasn't there, she asked, "Sister Wen Wen, where's my sister-in-law?"
"Your sister-in-law asked for leave."
Gao Wen smiled and said, "She came back to Hong Kong two days ago. Didn't your brother tell you?"
"No."
Chen Lan was puzzled. She felt that something was amiss.
"Ask Shishi about it."
Gao Wen pointed at Bian Shishi's office. "She should be in the bathroom."
While the two were talking, Bian Shishi came out of the bathroom. When she saw Chen Lan, she was surprised. "Why are you here?"
"What?"
Chen Lan was even more puzzled. "Can't I come, Sister Shishi?"
"Well …"
Bian Shishi choked. Judging from Chen Lan's reaction, she probably didn't know what was going on between Chen Hansheng and Little Yu'er.
"Come to my office first."
Bian Shishi called out. Without Little Yu 'er's permission, she didn't tell Senior Sister Gao Wen and Senior Sister Li Na about the Asura Field for the time being.
Bian Shishi asked Chen Lan in a separate office with a panoramic view of Xinjiekou. "Does Chen Hansheng know that you're here?"
"I know."
Chen Lan said, "I came from Nutshell Electronics Factory."
"If he knows … What does Chen Hansheng want to do?"
Bian Shishi murmured in a low voice as she looked at Chen Lan from head to toe.
"What's wrong, Sister Shishi?"
Chen Lan pouted. "I just miss Little Yu'er, so I came to see her. Can't I?"
"Well …"
Bian Shishi didn't know how to explain it.
"Is she angry because I didn't come over a few days ago? But I was studying for the final exam."
Chen Lan said with a wronged expression.
"That's not the reason …"
Bian Shishi was also in a dilemma.
"Okay, I get it."
Chen Lan stood up. She rubbed her eyes. "My sister-in-law must think that I'm too naughty, so she doesn't like me anymore. I'll leave now. Anyway, my parents don't like me, and my older brother doesn't like me either. I thought I met my sister-in-law who cares about me the most in the world, but I didn't know that you were all lying to me.
Life is cruel … "Chen Lan was about to leave, but she didn't move at all. She was waiting for Gu Ning to say," Show mercy. "
As expected, Bian Shishi shook her head and said, "Don't think too much. You're just a freshman. You don't have to be so sad. Wait a second. I'll call Little Yu'er."
Bian Shishi then walked out. Chen Lan frowned. She was just going to see Little Yu'er. Why did she have to call Chen Hansheng? She took out her phone and sent a message to Chen Hansheng.
Chen Lan: Brother, I feel that something is wrong.
Chen Hansheng: What's wrong?
Chen Lan: "Did you quarrel with Sister-in-law Xiaoyu 'er? I feel that something is off."
Chen Hansheng: Don't talk nonsense. I have a good relationship with her. We show off our love every day.
Chen Lan: Okay, I know.
Chen Hansheng: What do you know?
Chen Lan: As long as I reverse what you said, it will be the correct answer. You really did have a fight with Little Yu'er!
This time, Chen Hansheng took a little longer to reply to the message. Two minutes later, he replied with a "ding".
Chen Hansheng: Sister, you're so smart. I admit that we did have a fight. If you can help me to appease her, I can promise you one thing.
Chen Lan: What kind of brother is this? You sent your sister here to explore the road after a fight. No wonder you offered to give me money and said that prisoners on death row have to eat a full meal before they are beheaded. So this is what you meant.
Chen Hansheng: Just tell me. Do you have anything you want?
Chen Lan: I want to learn how to drive, but my father doesn't agree.
Chen Hansheng: I'll persuade him. If he still doesn't agree, I'll sign you up with money.
Chen Lan: Okay. Keep your promise. I hope you can be more sensible in the future and live a good life. Don't make us worry.
… ….
After a while, Bian Shishi finished her phone call outside. She picked up her bag and said, "Let's go back to school. Your sister-in-law, Little Yu'er, is in the dormitory. She said that since Chen Hansheng doesn't want to tell you, she will tell you the truth."
"Oh."
Chen Lan nodded obediently. She was smart enough to know that it was just a fight.
They took the bus back to Eastern University. It was almost 5 pm, the time when the students went to the cafeteria for dinner. They talked about how to celebrate the New Year while walking.
Chen Lan listened happily with a yearning expression on her face. Bian Shishi couldn't bear to see her like this.
If the girl knew that Chen Hansheng and Xiao Rongyu had broken up, she would be at a loss.
When they got back to the dormitory, Xiao Rongyu was sitting in front of the desk. It seemed that she had been waiting for them.
"Sister-in-law!"
Chen Lan called her affectionately.
However, Xiao Rongyu didn't respond as enthusiastically as before. Her lips moved a little. She was a little absent-minded for a moment, probably because the word "sister-in-law" reminded her of the past.
"Didn't your brother tell you about what happened between him and me?"
Xiao Rongyu asked calmly after coming back to his senses.
"No, my brother didn't tell you."
Chen Lan answered with certainty.
She was smart. She found out the information by herself. It wasn't Chen Hansheng who told her, so it wasn't a lie.
"Well … I'll tell you then."
Xiao Rongyu let out a long breath. It was obvious that she was a little emotional. Her high ponytail swayed slightly. When she calmed down, Xiao Rongyu said softly, "I broke up with your brother."
"What?!"
Chen Lan was shocked. Didn't they say that they had a fight? Why did they break up in the blink of an eye?
"Sister-in-law, please don't joke with me."
Chen Lan grabbed Xiao Rongyu's wrist and said in panic, "It was just a fight. Why did you break up with me?"
"Lan, we really broke up."
Xiao Rongyu's eyes turned red. Her voice was choked with sobs. "I'm not your sister-in-law anymore. You don't have to come to me …"
Xiao Rongyu's "You don't have to look for me anymore" was a little too resolute. With Xiao Rongyu's personality, he really couldn't say that to Chen Lan.
"Lan, they really broke up with each other."
Bian Shishi added, "You have to accept the fact. As for the reason, you can ask your brother."
In fact, Bian Shishi already knew what was going to happen next. Chen Lan hugged Xiao Rongyu and cried loudly. After that, they would say goodbye to each other unwillingly. From then on, they would be strangers and never have anything to do with each other again.
In this life, they were destined to be sisters-in-law.
However, Bian Shishi was greatly surprised by Chen Lan's reaction.
When Chen Lan confirmed that her older brother had really broken up with Little Yu 'er, she was a little confused at the beginning, but when she got her mind back, she suddenly rushed to hug Xiao Rongyu and said loudly, "I don't care. It's your business to break up with my older brother. Anyway, you'll always be my sister-in-law."
Xiao Rongyu was obviously struck dumb for a second. According to their current relationship, she should push Chen Lan away, but Xiao Rongyu subconsciously held Chen Lan's shoulders to comfort her.
"This logic and approach is indeed worthy of being the descendant of the Chen Hansheng family."
Bian Shishi clicked her tongue and exclaimed.
Wang Zibo had heard Chen Hansheng's evaluation before. This sister of his was like a "brother", and Wang Zibo often praised her. Ah Lan was very smart. If she studied seriously, she should be able to get into a 985 university.
This was the case now. Xiao Rongyu didn't harden his heart to reject Chen Lan. This allowed the "younger sister card" to be established.
