Oh no! His rural wife is sweeter than a peach!

Zhou Yanjin was startled, somewhat bewildered, "Put down what?"

"cake."

Ying Yuchuan stared at him, his brows furrowed in displeasure, and reminded him in a stern voice, "This is my cake, put it down."

This food was served to him by his wife, not to an outsider like him.

"..."

what?

Zhou Yanjin was completely bewildered.

No, he won't even let him eat cake?

Under his sharp gaze, he dared not be presumptuous. His scalp tingled, and he obediently put the cake he was holding back in its original position.

However, he hadn't completely given up struggling, and he stuffed the piece from the fork into his mouth in one gulp.

"Hey, this matcha cake is really delicious. No wonder all the girls like matcha desserts."

He licked his lips with lingering satisfaction, which only made Ying Yuchuan's expression even more blank.

"Dude, you won't even let me eat cake, isn't that a bit heartless?"

"Can you leave now?"

"No, because I still have something to say."

"..."

Ying Yuchuan closed his eyes patiently.

"You have five minutes to finish speaking and get out!"

Zhou Yanjin didn't want to push his limits any further, so she told him about another important thing that had come this time.

"Li Wan asked me for your phone number and WeChat."

Someone shot her a cold glare, and Zhou Yanjin immediately surrendered, raising both hands to explain herself:

"I didn't give it to you, I didn't say a word."

He's smart to be sensible.

Ying Yuchuan's expression softened a bit.

"And I also need to prove one thing: I had no idea she was coming yesterday. You can't pin this on me, or I'll be wrongly accused."

He grumbled resentfully.

"She still has the nerve to call me; I'm thinking of blocking her."

"But, brother..."

He looked at him cautiously. "You really...have you let her go?"

As Ying Yuchuan's best friend and classmate for over ten years, Zhou Yanjin was incredibly curious.

Back when Li Wan and he were in school, they were always seen together, and many classmates thought they were a couple.

After graduation, Li Wan quietly left Nancheng. None of her classmates knew. It wasn't until the class monitor mentioned organizing a reunion that someone said she had returned to Beijing and could no longer be contacted.

So what's going on between her and Ying Yuchuan?

This was a question that Zhou Yanjin had always wanted to know the answer to.

A moment of silence fell.

Zhou Yanjin kept a close eye on his good brother's reaction and expression.

But he seemed somewhat disappointed; he didn't react strangely to his words.

In a short while.

"What is there to let go of?"

Ying Yuchuan originally didn't want to pay attention to this idiot, but he thought that after so many years, he didn't want him to continue being an idiot and coming to ask him these silly questions every day.

After coldly retorting, she gave a mocking laugh, "I had nothing to do with her to begin with, so what's this talk of letting go?"

"what?"

Zhou Yanjin was truly dumbfounded.

It's okay?

Those rumors that circulated back then...

Ying Yuchuan looked at him like he was an idiot. "Zhou Yanjin, stop chasing girls and eat more walnuts to nourish your brain. Don't get sold out and still have to count the money for the seller."

Faced with his cold words, Zhou Yanjin was truly confused.

What's going on?

Ying Yuchuan could tell from his bewildered look that he was truly incredibly stupid.

She didn't want to say anything more to him. He waved his hand and said, "Alright, you can go now. Don't interfere with my work. Also, please keep your mouth shut. Don't go around shouting at people, and don't mention the name Li Wan in front of me."

I glanced in the direction of the office door.

We mustn't let Lu Luozhi hear this.

He didn't want to cause any unnecessary misunderstandings.

And so, Zhou Yanjin arrived refreshed and left in a daze.

He really didn't understand.

What exactly happened between Ying Yuchuan and Li Wan?

They used to be really close friends. They would walk out of the school gate together after school, didn't they?

While waiting for the elevator, he subconsciously glanced at the secretary's workstation next to the office.

The new female intern secretary sat there, typing on the computer.

Suddenly, a strange feeling washed over me.

He couldn't quite figure out what was wrong with him.

Scratching her head, Zhou Yanjin, feeling a bit dazed, stepped into the elevator.

It seems he really needs to buy some walnuts to boost his brainpower.

Go now.
