The young lady seemed to have seen Lin Chen coming and smiled happily!
She quickly walked forward and came out from under the umbrella. She was indeed as Uncle Dong had said — obedient, cute, and very fair. She was wearing a blue tiffany dress, and her entire body glowed under the sunlight.
"Lin Chen!" The young lady called out to Lin Chen, then raised the bag in her hand. She said to Lin Chen, who was standing inside the door with both hands in his pockets, "This is my compensation for your watch. I'm very sorry that I broke your watch. I searched for a long time before I found the exact same one."
Lin Chen pursed his thin lips, his dark and deep eyes as calm as a mirror. He didn't reach out to take the bag from the young lady's hand and only said, "You don't understand what I'm saying?"
The young lady saw Lin Chen's stern expression and the accumulated anger in his eyes. She bit her lower lip. "I just want to return the watch to you! I broke the watch, so I … I have to pay for it!"
The young lady slowly retracted her raised hand and hugged the bag containing the watch in her arms. "Lin Chen, don't treat me like this, okay? I really like you!"
Lin Chen still had that profound and mature look on his face. He wasn't moved by the young lady's confession.
"I really don't know how to please you. I knew that you were competing with my family for that project, so I went to my brother to steal the low price report for you. Don't break your watch … I'll pay for it! You don't want it either! Lin Chen … can you tell me how I can please you … how I can make you like me!"
As the young lady spoke, she started to cry.
Even Liang Mulan, who was looking at the surveillance camera at the door, felt sorry for the young lady. Liang Mulan also had a daughter. If her daughter liked someone else like this and lowered herself, but the other person ignored her, her heart would definitely ache.
It was probably because Lin Ran had pursued Gu Shaoting previously that Liang Mulan could empathize with her.
She wanted to open the door and let the young lady in, but she felt that as an elder, it wasn't appropriate for her to interfere in young people's matters, so she held back.
"Jian Qiqi, it's not up to you whether you like someone or not! You're still young, and the world you've seen is too small. Perhaps, you don't even know what it means to like someone! Go back!" Lin Chen had a stone-hearted look on his face. "Don't come looking for me again!"
"You can't think that I don't know what it means to like someone just because I'm young! When I close my eyes, my mind is filled with you. If I don't see you for a day, I won't be able to eat or drink! The thought of you disregarding me makes my heart ache. I'm satisfied as long as I can see you once. If this isn't like, then tell me what is!"
Lin Chen, who was already in the battery-powered scooter, stepped on the ground with one foot and said in a magnetic and mellow voice, "If you like someone, you'll be satisfied as long as she's doing well and make her feel comfortable and happy. You shouldn't use unscrupulous means to trap her by your side."
When Liang Mulan heard Lin Chen's words, her heart trembled.
Could it be that Lin Chen has someone in his heart?
Who is it?
Liang Mulan doesn't even know who her son likes?
Could it be that all these years, Lin Chen hasn't been satisfied with anyone because there's someone else in his heart?
Liang Mulan suddenly recalled that Lin Chen seemed to have been very close to a girl named Lu Hanzi during his university days. Later on, he seemed to have kept in touch with Lu Hanzi.
This Lu Hanzi has been divorced and married several times. Could it be that Lin Chen likes her?
Just as Lin Chen was about to leave, Jian Qiqi suddenly shouted, "That's not liking you! That's cowardice! Since you really like that person, why don't you work hard to make you the source of her happiness? In the end, you still don't like her enough. If you like her enough and feel that losing her is like losing the whole world, what reason do you have to give up? Or do you not have confidence in yourself and feel that the person who can give her happiness can't be you?"
Jian Qiqi's clear voice was filled with determination. "Lin Chen, I don't just like you. That's why I want to do my best to pursue you! I believe that if you're with me, I'll definitely make you the happiest man in the world! This is my liking, my love! Lin Chen, I think this is love! This is liking!"
Lin Chen frowned slightly and said to the security guard, "Drive back!"
"Lin Chen, I won't give up on you!" Jian Qiqi shouted at Lin Chen. "Because if I miss you, I'll miss out on my entire world. I only have one life, and I don't want to do anything that I'll regret!"
After shouting, Jian Qiqi placed the watch inside the metal gate, then reluctantly turned around and left with her chauffeur.
Liang Mulan, who was hiding behind the surveillance cameras, felt as if she had seen a heart-wrenching drama. Her eyes turned red!
What a good girl!
She liked Lin Chen so much, but that rascal Lin Chen wasn't moved at all.
When Lin Chen returned, lunch was already ready. The security guard brought in the expensive watch that Jian Qiqi had left at the door and handed it to Uncle Dong to handle.
Uncle Dong didn't know Miss Jian, so he could only take it to the restaurant and hand it over to Lin Chen.
Looking at the packaging of the watch, Lin Jingquan could tell that it was worth a lot. He smiled and said, "Since she's not here to return the watch, she must be here to give it to you. It's a girl. Since Xiao Chen is your friend, why didn't you invite her in?"
"Not a friend!" Lin Chen said to Uncle Dong. "Uncle Dong, is Xiaobao back? This watch is for Xiaobao!"
Xiaobao was Uncle Dong's son. He had just returned from studying abroad.
Uncle Dong looked at Liang Mulan with a troubled expression. "This … this watch is too valuable!"
He didn't dare to take a watch that cost more than 600,000 yuan!
"Look at you! Uncle Dong is troubled!" Liang Mulan smiled and said, "Uncle Dong, give it to me!"
Uncle Dong felt as if he had been pardoned and quickly handed the watch to Liang Mulan.
Lin Chen didn't care about the watch, so he didn't ask. After Liang Mulan opened the packaging, she found a letter hidden in the watch box.
Liang Mulan opened the letter. "Ah! It's a love letter!"
This was the first time Liang Mulan had seen someone write a love letter to Lin Chen!
Of course, Lin Chen often received such things in school in the past. However, Lin Chen would always dispose of them before returning home.
"So, Xiao Chen and Nuan Nuan knew that Nuan Nuan often received love letters when they were young. I've never seen Xiao Chen receive a love letter before. I thought that Xiao Chen was ugly and wouldn't be able to receive a love letter in this lifetime. I didn't expect that he would receive a love letter at such an adult! I have to commemorate the first time I received a love letter!" Liang Mulan smiled.
Lin Nuan took a sip of water and said with a smile, "Mom, the love letters that Brother received in the past almost piled up into a small mountain. It's just that Brother is more meticulous than me. He would flip through the love letters in his books and throw them away before returning home!"
