When Rong Dai saw how determined she was, she didn't say anything more. After confirming the time to go to Huo's Photography Studio in the afternoon and sorting out some details, Lu Nianzhi left.
Rong Dai sat in her office thinking for a while, then took out her phone and browsed the news on Ning Yue Fashion.
Ling Yan was an international supermodel who hadn't been famous for very long, only about a year. So not many people in China knew about her.
However, in order to increase popularity and compete for attention for the fashion show, Ning Yue Fashion publicized Ling Yan's career very eagerly.
In a short time, both Ling Yan and Ning Yue Fashion received double exposure.
Looking at the Ling Yan on the screen, she was indeed extremely beautiful and charming. No wonder little Xu Heng, although his eyes and brows resembled Xu Chuan, his face actually looked more like Ling Yan.
She glanced out the window at Lu Nianzhi who had returned to her desk and continued working. Although she had said earlier that this kind of thing wouldn't get her down.
But Rong Dai could see that she had still been affected.
Even if it had happened to her instead, she probably wouldn't have been able to take it lightly either.
She thought for a few seconds, then sent a text message to Huo Shao Ting.
Huo Shao Ting, who was working, received her message. His mood had been pretty good originally, but when he saw she was asking about Xu Chuan and Ling Yan's matters, his expression immediately changed.
He didn't reply, but instead instructed his assistant Zhang: "Go tell Xu Chuan that research is suspended until family matters have been dealt with at home."
Zhang was stunned for a moment. What was the Chairman trying to stir up?
"Go tell him Ling Yan is back."
Seeing that he hadn't moved, Huo Shao Ting felt it was also inappropriate to just suspend cooperation. So he added that sentence.
Zhang nodded and then went to the research lab to inform Xu Chuan.
Upon hearing this, Xu Chuan's brows immediately furrowed. He went to the cabinet to take out his phone and as expected, saw Ling Yan's smiling face.
His eyes instantly turned sinister. He quickly closed the webpage and immediately called Lu Nianzhi.
Last time under Rong Dai's matchmaking, the two of them had talked for a very long time.
Although this knot in the heart couldn't be untied for the moment, at least Nianzhi had allowed him to call her now.
Except the number of calls was limited, to twice a month.
Sitting in her office, Lu Nianzhi would have been restless. Ling Yan was back, and they had such a big son between them. Not to mention Xu Chuan used to have feelings for Ling Yan.
Wasn't it very normal for these old feelings to reignite?
Xu Chuan had only explained to her what happened that night. He hadn't explained anything else, and she didn't feel right to ask more.
The knot in her heart still couldn't come undone.
Xu Chuan only felt that he had wronged her and felt guilty toward her.
After being separated for five years, there was nothing left between them.
While between Xu Chuan and Ling Yan, there was still a child.
Lu Nianzhi felt grieved and pained in her heart, like a knife twisting!
While she was lost in thought, she saw Xu Chuan's incoming call.
She froze for a moment. The ringtone kept ringing, already affecting the other colleagues in the office.
"Sister Nianzhi? Do you want to answer the call first?"
Huo Mei Shu looked at her worriedly and gently reminded.
"Sorry, I'll take this outside."
Only then did Lu Nianzhi come to her senses. She grabbed her phone and immediately went out of the office to the yard to answer the call.
"Nian Nian...how are you?"
On the other end of the phone, Xu Chuan also didn't know what to say. He hesitated a bit before uttering this sentence.
What had happened five years ago was a scar in Nianzhi's heart. She was unwilling to touch it, and so was he.
It seemed that every time it was touched, it made the distance between him and Nian Nian grow even more distant.
He had lost her for five years. This time...he really didn't want to endure such excruciating pain again.
