Chapter 347
Ning Qing noticed the abnormalities between the two. She turned around and tried to get out of the dance floor.
But her little hand was grasped by the man. “Alright, don’t worry about other people’s affairs. Are you addicted to being a matchmaker?”
What was he saying?
Ning Qing looked back and glared at him fiercely. “Young Master Lu, that’s your third brother and my good friend. Should we not care about them? Besides, it’s everyone’s duty to help every couple live happily ever after.”
The little woman was emphasizing every word. It sounded a little sweet and charming to the man.
He raised his eyebrows and said, “Ning Qing, not all couples in the world can live happily ever after. There are obstacles between Luoxi and Miss Xia that can’t be crossed. It’s difficult for them to be together.”
Ning Qing listened and twisted her eyebrows slightly. She hummed and drew up her lips to laugh. “Yes, it seems that when we were together, we couldn’t overcome the obstacles.”
There was a lot of irony in her words.
Lu Shaoming: “…”
“Ning Qing, is it really you? You are more beautiful than on TV. My daughter likes you very much. She is your little fan. Can you give me your autograph?” Jian Han’s two female colleagues surrounded her excitedly.
“Sure.” Ning Qing nodded.
The female colleague took out her pen and paper and handed it to Ning Qing. “Ning Qing, I’ve heard that you and Jian Han are good friends, but I didn’t expect to see you today.”
Ning Qing signed her name, smiled, and said, “Yes, I’m good friends with sister Jian. You’ve known her for many years. Friends of friends are friends. We can go have tea when we’re free in the future.”
The female colleague was so flattered that she immediately said, “Of course, I have known Jian Han for six years. Back then, when her family moved to Singapore, I had found her house for her. Unfortunately, her parents had an accident on the high-speed railway and passed away.”
Ning Qing looked up and said, ” Jian Han’s parents had an accident on the high-speed railway?”
“Yes,” sighed the female colleague. “Six years ago, Jian Han had graduated from Oxford University in England. Somehow, she moved to Singapore with her parents. She went to Singapore before them to clean up her house. Her parents took the high-speed rail to the airport. However, before they reached the airport, they passed away. You don’t know how Jian Han had managed to survive those two years. She shut herself up in a small room all day and had serious mental problems. She refused to communicate with others and was very antisocial. Later, I met the hypnotist Bill in the hospital and took her to see the doctor. Not only had Bill cured Jian Han, but also successfully discovered the potential in her. Jian Han became Bill’s proudest pupil because of her talent in hypnosis.”
Ning Qing sighed. She never knew that Jian Han had such a painful past.
Jian Han had never told her about these things, even though they were so close now.
That past had been buried in Jian Han’s heart because it was too painful, so it was buried deep.
It couldn’t be revealed to outsiders.
Ning Qing suddenly remembered a key point — six years ago?
Six years ago, when Zhou Dayuan was in prison, Jian Han had left him.
Jian had once said that she was submissive to reality and could not overcome difficulties with Zhou Dayuan, so she left him, but she did not leave him to make a life for herself better?
Why had she moved with her family?
A serious mental problem?
What was the mental problem?
Had Jian Han really lived as well as she claimed in the past six years?
Ning Qing hooked her lips and laughed. “Those things are the past. Sister Jian is very happy now. I think Tang Fan is very kind to her. He’s her lifelong destination.”
“Yes, President Tang is sincere and kind to Jian Han. He has been accompanying her silently for years, but…” The female colleague shook her head. “If President Tang is Jian Han’s final destination, would Jian Han wait until now to marry? Jian Han’s 31 years old. How many women would wait until this age to get married after meeting their soulmate? Jian Han’s youth has slowly been spent.”
Ning Qing nodded in her heart. Tang Fan was a good man. If Jian Han could marry, she would have married long ago.
Ning Qing blinked wittily and pretended not to understand. “What do you mean? Sister Jian and Tang Fan are not in love? It’s a natural process from love to marriage.”
The female colleague put Ning Qing’s autograph in her bag. She went up in front of Ning Qing and whispered to her, “Ning Qing, let me tell you, I don’t think President Tang and Jian Han are in love.”
“Why?” Ning Qing was surprised.
“Because, people in love will have intimate behavior, but once in the office, I had unintentionally seen President Tang put one hand on the table and lean down to kiss Jian Han, but she refused.”
Ning Qing couldn’t help but lift her lips. “Really?”
“Of course it’s true. They’ve been in a relationship for years, and they don’t even have a normal kiss. That’s not normal.”
“Yes.” Ning Qing nodded. “It makes sense.”
At that time, Tang Fan came back with Jian Han, and the female colleague could not talk anymore. She and Ning Qing ended the conversation.
“Ning Qing, let’s go to the bar and have a drink.” Jian Han came up and held Ning Qing’s little hand.
“OK.” Ning Qing followed her.
When she came to Lu Shaoming and the others, Ning Qing suddenly stopped in front of them. She laughed and said, “Doctor Zhou, is this your girlfriend? It’s such a coincidence today that I’ve encountered so many acquaintances. Let’s have a drink together. Sister Jian, do you mind?”
Jian Han looked at Li Beibei and Zhou Dayuan with an impeccably polite smile on her face. “If Doctor Zhou doesn’t mind, let’s have a drink together.”
Zhou Dayuan looked at Li Beibei, inquiring like a gentleman.
Li Beibei laughed generously and brightly. “I have no objection. It’s livelier when everyone gets together.”
So they booked a long bar table, and some of the <Lurker> crew and colleagues from the hospital all came and sat down around the bar.
Then someone suggested, “Today’s Chinese Valentine’s day. Let’s play a game to liven up the atmosphere!”
“Alright, what game?”
“Truth or dare. We write all the questions on notes, then put them in a bamboo basket. We put a wine bottle in the middle and spin it, whoever it points to had to pick a note and answer them according to the questions on the note.
“OK, OK.” Everyone seconded.
So they began to play a round of truth or dare.
