Chapter 1848 - 1934: Relentless When in the Right
Destroying a person is really easy. They never dreamed that all of this stemmed from Chen Xiuhong’s relentless antics back then!
Of course, that was later. Right now, everything was just starting.
When Dong Jianwen returned to the hospital with some barbecue, he looked at Deng Xiaolu with surprise and told her what had just happened. Deng Xiaolu was also quite shocked when she heard about it.
"Didn’t you say Su Xuan was a foreman? How can a foreman from Junyue Group be so impressive!"
"I don’t know either, but he’s really amazing!"
Dong Jianwen thought Su Xuan was incredible, and even now he still hadn’t fully processed it.
"He probably isn’t a foreman. I think I’ve seen your friend before; he is definitely not a foreman!"
Xiaoyu felt like she’d seen Su Xuan before but couldn’t quite remember.
"Never mind whether he’s a foreman or not, he’s a brother anyway!"
Deng Xiaolu said gratefully.
"Yeah, he’s a brother. I’m really thankful to Su Xuan. Today was really satisfying!"
For Dong Jianwen, today was a happy day; it was a rare moment of triumph, seeing the retribution of that woman, Chen Xiuhong.
When Su Xuan got back home, he was quite exhausted. So much had happened today that he fell right onto the bed and started snoring away.
"Lazybones, wake up!"
In a half-dream state, Su Xuan felt something soft and fragrant touch him, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Cheng Ling patting him.
"Awake so early!"
Su Xuan gave a mischievous smile, his naughty hand pinching her firm cheek.
"I’m off today, let me treat you to a meal! I got my paycheck!"
Cheng Ling smiled as she spoke!
"Really? Alright then, I won’t hold back!"
Su Xuan said as he rolled over and pinned Cheng Ling beneath him, grinning wickedly.
"Let’s take care of business first, then eat!"
"Naughty..."
After Su Xuan and Cheng Ling left, Cheng Ling was driving a fairly basic domestic car that Su Xuan had given her, wearing a happy smile. Originally, Su Xuan wanted to buy her a better car, but Cheng Ling insisted on just having one worth several tens of thousands, so Su Xuan didn’t insist either. After all, Su Xuan himself thought of cars as merely transportation tools.
"Sweetheart, you’re pretty good at driving!"
Su Xuan said with a mischievous smile.
"Haha, they all call me an Old Driver!"
Laughing and joking, they arrived at a French restaurant. Cheng Ling had just received her paycheck yesterday, so the first thing that came to mind was to treat Su Xuan to a meal and then buy him a gift.
Even though Su Xuan was wealthy, it was his money, and Cheng Ling was very self-sufficient and independent.
Su Xuan and Cheng Ling sat at a spot off to the side in the restaurant, chatting and laughing. Just then, Su Xuan had a feeling that someone was looking at him. It was just a feeling.
Instinctively, he looked up and was shocked; there was indeed someone looking at him—a woman, a stunningly beautiful woman. When she stood among the crowd, she had a distinct presence.
With large, wavy curls that conveyed mature beauty, a tall and perfect figure, holding a handbag.
And the reason why Su Xuan felt shocked when he saw her was not because this woman was beautiful, but because he knew her, and she was his regret. This woman was none other than Pan Chenyu!
Two years had passed since Su Xuan last saw Pan Chenyu. Seeing her again, Pan Chenyu was even more mature, possessing a refined beauty that wasn’t there two years ago. Back then, she had straight hair; now, with some color and waves, she presented an intellectual allure.
Su Xuan could see tears in Pan Chenyu’s eyes. She seemed to have accidentally bumped into him; Su Xuan abruptly stood up.
"Ling’er, wait here for a moment!"
Su Xuan quickly said, chasing after her, because he noticed that when Pan Chenyu saw him, she quickly turned and left, seemingly avoiding him.
Although Su Xuan knew Pan Chenyu was getting engaged, he always wanted to understand why and also wanted to know if she was doing well.
Even if he couldn’t be with Pan Chenyu, he accepted it. Su Xuan just hoped that she would be doing well.
By the time Su Xuan chased after her, Peng Yuecheng had already disappeared into the crowd. Outside, there was originally heavy traffic and a sea of people; he didn’t even know where to start.
"Why walk away! Even if we can’t be lovers, can’t we even be friends?"
Looking at the vast sea of people, Su Xuan sighed helplessly, turned around, and went back inside the restaurant, feeling very dispirited. Su Xuan didn’t know why Pan Chenyu didn’t want to meet him. Was she resentful?
Returning to the restaurant, Cheng Ling looked at Su Xuan and asked curiously.
"Big Brother Su, what’s wrong?"
"I just met a familiar person, it’s nothing!"
His heart was still filled with unease. He had been in the Imperial Capital for a quite a while now and had never seen Pan Chenyu. Su Xuan even started doubting himself, wondering if Pan Chenyu wasn’t even here.
Though he was deeply conflicted in his heart, Su Xuan couldn’t figure out if he should meet with Pan Chenyu. Nowadays, Pan Chenyu was going to build her own family. Would it be inappropriate for him to disturb that? But seeing her again today, Su Xuan truly wanted to see her, to ask if she had been well all these years.
Back then, after giving Pan Chenyu thirty million for her to bring her brother back to their hometown so their father could make a comeback, they maintained frequent contact for some time. They often had late-night chats, and Pan Chenyu even told him their father’s business was picking up. Su Xuan was originally planning to go help them out and also meet Pan Chenyu’s parents.
But later, after Su Xuan went to Miaojiang, his phone got destroyed, and he lost all his contacts. He could only reach a few people. Subsequently, after wandering into the desert, two years had already passed in a blink. Throughout these two years, he had no idea what Pan Chenyu had gone through or what situation she was in. However, seeing her walk away upon spotting him today, Su Xuan felt really hurt!
Despite having many women around him now, Su Xuan truly couldn’t forget Pan Chenyu, the woman who stepped into his heart during their college days, yet upon seeing him, she turned away.
Because of this, Su Xuan wasn’t in much of a mood to hang out anymore.
