We are doing well, very happy!” Lin Lan’s face was full of sweetness. Whenever Luo Xuan was mentioned, she would unconsciously straighten her back and arm herself, especially in front of Chu Yue. In fact, ever since the car accident, Luo Xuan had been truly good to her, attentive, gentle, and caring. Whenever he had time, he would accompany her with many caring words, showing a deeply affectionate couple’s appearance. Everyone praised their good relationship, and even the Zhong family elders were pleased with Luo Xuan’s behavior, only hoping that Lin Lan would soon have a child and continue the family line. Only Lin Lan herself knew clearly that everything Luo Xuan did was because he had promised Chu Yue, and she was merely benefiting from Chu Yue’s favor. Therefore, the more Luo Xuan was good to her, the more bitter she felt.
Lin Lan had her own pride and would not give up so easily. One day, she would make Luo Xuan truly fall in love with her and unable to leave her!
The two women, each with their own thoughts, had no common topics, and the atmosphere suddenly turned cold. Chu Yue felt somewhat sad. Once upon a time, they were so close, but now, they could only look at each other in silence.
Lin Lan’s sharp, penetrating words made Chu Yue fall into deep thought. This was the first time she had directly examined her feelings with Gu Yunzhi, and the first time she felt uncertain about their future.
Someone in the reader group suggested going to the countryside for the weekend to breathe fresh air, relax, and try some farmhouse cuisine. This proposal was approved by most group members, and the group owner “Love Fool” quickly finalized the list and invited Chu Yue to join.
Chu Yue had been troubled by Lin Lan’s words and wanted to go out and relax, so she agreed. She didn’t like lively scenes and rarely met her readers. Her book covers never printed her photo, and she never held book signings. In the group, she rarely spoke, so many people only knew her writing but had never seen her. When they heard she was coming, the group became noisy.
