egant""Yes," Chongguang replied flatly.Xiao Huo immediately ran over and sat down, his back straight...Wen Manman was speechless.After washing up at night, she sat in front of her dressing table and a...The atmosphere was tense.

He attributed this to the fact that they had only broken up a month ago, and he hadn't yet adjusted to this new identity... He thought that in time, he would get used to it.

I'm used to being apart from her, used to coming home and finding her gone from the apartment, used to having other women around me, and most of all, used to the idea that Huo Jiao will belong to another man.

Jiang Lan's hand finally loosened completely!

He regained his composure and apologized to Huo Jiao in a low voice: "I really shouldn't have meddled in your private affairs!"

With him and Song Qingqing around, Huo Jiao naturally had no appetite. She got up and left with the young boy first.

After they left, Song Qingqing casually said when she was pointing at the meat, "Jiang Lan, listen. They're actually quite a good match. Miss Huo is well-maintained and you really can't tell much of an age difference. She just looks a few years younger!"

Jiang Lan listened, sitting at the small table. He was already in a bad mood, and Song Qingqing's words made it even worse. He lost all desire to eat barbecue and directly took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one up.

As far as the eye could see, Huo Jiao was following someone onto the bus.

It's still a black SUV, not cheap, at least 2 million starting.

Song Qingqing poked her head out and said, "It was bought by Miss Huo, wasn't it This car looks pretty expensive!"

Jiang Lan only thought of it at this moment, who was the boy just now It was the youngest son of the Sun family, who had just graduated from school. How did he get mixed up with Huo Jiao

He brushed some ash off his cigarette and said in a flat tone: “He’s the youngest son of the Sun family! This car is already quite understated.”

Song Qingqing was a little stunned.

Then she started to care a little, another wealthy family, and she wasn't from a wealthy family... Would Jiang Lan mind her background

Jiang Lan, seeing her expression, guessed her thoughts and said faintly, "The Jiang family doesn't need a marriage alliance."

Song Qingqing became sweet again.

Jiang Lan watched the smiling face in front of him, his mood somewhat complicated. He couldn't say it was good or bad, he just felt... different from what he had imagined.

Although he felt that at his age, romance shouldn't be earth-shattering anymore, there should still be some passion, but being with Song Qingqing was utterly calm and uneventful!

Every time he wanted to go on a date with her, it was just for the sake of going on a date, not because he was eager to see her.

He remembered when he first started dating Huo Jiao, back then they couldn't get enough of each other, spending every day together and almost every night at his apartment... Huo Jiao was very romantic, and they had done some crazy things.

Thinking about those things now, even just thinking about them, brings back a lot of feelings.

Perhaps it was because Song Qingqing was too virtuous and a good wife and mother Or perhaps, her appearance wasn't enough to ignite his passion and impulsiveness

Jiang Lan quickly found the reason. He thought to himself, he shouldn't compare Song Qingqing with Huo Jiao.

He didn't eat much at the barbecue.

Song Qingqing ate a lot, patting her belly and saying she was going to die from being fat, then packed the remaining barbecue to take home for supper....

Jiang Lan listened: Wasn't what you just ate supper

After getting in the car, Song Qingqing tried to probe a little. She wanted to spend the night at his place and take their relationship to the next level! But Jiang Lan feigned ignorance. He had decided to develop a Platonic relationship with Song Qingqing, engaging in no sexual activity before marriage and respecting each other.

Song Qingqing felt a little disappointed as she got out of the car.

She couldn't help but lean in and whisper to Jiang Lan, "We've been dating for a while now, Jiang Lan, listen. I feel like there might be something wrong between us."

Jiang Lan listened with one hand lightly caressing the steering wheel, calmly asking, "What's the problem"

Song Qingqing bit her lip, her pregnant belly slightly shy as she asked: "Isn't it said that men over 30 have big demands Why don't you have those thoughts about me, and last time you gave up so easily! Jiang Lan, do you think I'm not good enough physically"

Jiang Lan is a mature man, dealing with a young girl is more than enough for him.

With a snap, he unbuckled his seatbelt and leaned in to kiss her.

But before their lips could meet, he pulled back. His dark eyes locked onto her doe-like gaze as a low chuckle escaped his lips. "Smells like barbecue," he said, shaking his head. "Maybe not today. Some other time!"

Song Qingqing closed her eyes.

Right now, humiliated to death, she opened the car door and threw out a sentence: "Jiang Lan, you are really bad!"

Jiang Lan, you're so bad...

He stared at the ajar car door.

This sentence reminded him of his first time with Huo Jiao. She had a cold and was sick, and he took care of her at her apartment. He coaxed her to take medicine, and as he coaxed her, he took off her clothes and deeply connected with her.

At that moment, Huo Jiao was trapped under him.

She hugged his neck and whispered, "Jiang Lan, you're so bad!"

His heart ached slightly.

He thought, he had truly liked Huo Jiao, been deeply infatuated with her. He didn't know if in the future she would also be holding onto someone else's neck and saying that person was bad!

Wasn't she supposed to spend the night with someone tonight

Jiang Lan had also talked about a few girlfriends. He felt he shouldn't be such a conservative person. It was normal for men and women to break up and find someone who made them happy. It wasn't unusual at all to have sex. For example, if Huo Jiao hadn't intervened last time, he and Song Qingqing would have already been intimate.

He tried hard to convince himself that this was normal, but he couldn't help but feel bothered by it.

He minds Huo Jiao being with others.

Jiang Lan sat in the car, smoking four or five cigarettes. He finally understood, he couldn't give Huo Jiao a marriage, so he shouldn't care so much, and he shouldn't stop her from finding new happiness.

Thinking about it this way, he felt much better!

……

A week later, it was Grandpa Jiang's birthday.

Jiang Lan thought about taking Song Qingqing to visit the family. It was her birthday and there would be many people, so it would be lively. He figured the elder wouldn't make things difficult for them... Of course, Song Qingqing couldn't go as his fiancee. She could just say she was a friend.

He didn't worry when he attended banquets with Huo Jiao in the past. Huo Jiao would always dress up beautifully and enchantingly.

But Song Qingqing couldn't.

Song Qingqing needs to hone both her temperament and taste. In Anna's words, she needs a complete transformation, otherwise, she won't even catch the old man's eye in her current state.

That high-end salon is located on the ground floor of a building, beneath a retro coffee shop.

When Jiang Lan heard was taking Song Qingqing upstairs, she unexpectedly saw Huo Jiao... She was dressed very formally, in a black silk dress, wearing a set of pearl jewelry. Her fair skin exposed at the collarbone and chest was even more dazzling than the pearls.

She sat with her parents, facing the Sun family.

The person Huo Jiao went on a blind date with was Sun Simian, the second son of the Sun family. He is a well-known financial advisor in China and is also very handsome.

Just by looking, both sets of parents were very satisfied.

Huo Jiao is beautiful and has a good relationship with the two Sun siblings. Naturally, Sun Sannan is close to her and takes a liking to her. His eyes and demeanor are both elegant and courteous, giving the impression that he wants to pursue her.

Sun's wife covered her lips and smiled, she finally felt at ease. This picky second son finally had a girl who admired him.

She was delighted!

Jiang Lan had probably been reading for too long and was spotted. Huo Shaoting naturally called out, "Lan Ting, come out with your girlfriend"but went unanswered.After ringing for more than ten times, a mechanical voice came from the other end: 【Sorry, the person you called is unavailable right now. Please try again later.】I called several...
