The people at the next table were all from some of the most prestigious families in the capital.

There are actually thin fir trees.

It's been so long since I've seen her, she's lost so much weight, she looks almost as thin as Jiang Fanxing.

It seems like they're not doing too well.

Could it be that she confessed her feelings to Xie Yanhuai and was rejected, which is why she is so depressed?

When Lin Wu first broke up with Bo Shan, she silently cursed her for having terrible luck.

Upon discovering that she was not doing well, Lin Wu's first reaction was not relief, but rather a feeling of sullenness.

"..."

Lin Wu slapped his thigh in frustration.

The person next to them was startled. "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing," Lin Wu said. "I was just a little distracted."

Xu Jingwang stared at her for a couple of seconds, but didn't believe her. So he looked in the direction she had just been looking.

The thin cedar stood out in the crowd.

He seemed to understand, "It's alright, the Bo family is stable now, no need to worry too much."

He was unaware that Lin Wu and Bo Shan had broken up, and thought Lin Wu was worried about her girlfriend.

To his surprise, Lin Wu looked at him with a surprised expression, "What? It's stable now?"

"The Bo family was in chaos for a while," Xu Jingwang explained patiently. "The old lady of the Bo family was so angry that she stayed in the hospital for more than half a year, and your friend was also locked up. But fortunately, she has now overcome the difficulties and taken over the Bo family ahead of schedule."

Lin Wu was taken aback, her tone somewhat urgent, "When did this happen?"

Xu Jing pondered for a moment, "It should be... around the same time as when your family had that accident."

"..."

Lin Wu remained silent for a long time.

Her heart was beating very fast.

Around the same time...

Does that mean that there might be a misunderstanding between her and Bo Shan?

Perhaps she doesn't like Xie Yanhuai...

She licked her dry lips, momentarily forgetting about the meal, her mind filled with the last time she saw Bo Shan.

It was just an ordinary afternoon.

There was neither wind nor rain, and people on the street went to work and school as usual.

Only Lin Wu's little world collapsed.

It wasn't just the collapse of families, but also of friendships.

Xie Yanhuai's change of expression and indifference did not actually cause Lin Wu much harm.

On the contrary, it's thin cedar.

It gave her countless nightmares over the past year.

Every time I wake up, I feel depressed all day.

Breaking free from friendships is even harder.

At least that's the case for Lin Wu.

We used to be so close, we grew up together, I trusted and relied on you so much.

What if... it's a misunderstanding?

What if she was in dire straits, barely able to save herself?

This guess ignited a small flame in Lin Wu's heart. She was restless and thought about going to find Bo Shan, but she hesitated.

What if that's the outcome?

What if she's just imagining things?

Xu Jingwang seemed to notice something was wrong with her. "What's wrong?"

"I……"

Lin Wu briefly explained the situation, "...Do you think there might be some misunderstanding?"

Xu Jingwang looked at her silently.

Lin Wu was also looking at him.

His big, round eyes were full of hope and anticipation.

Xu Jingwang doesn't actually believe that misunderstandings can occur between people.

Even if there's a misunderstanding, once it's missed, it's missed.

People come and go in his life, but he never tries to keep anyone.

He couldn't say a word about Lin Wu's eyes, he just smiled and said, "I think so, go ask her."

"What if she mocks me if I don't have one?" Lin Wu hesitated again.

"Let her mock you if she wants to," Xu Jingwang said. "The worst outcome is that she mocks you, and the best outcome is that you two clear up the misunderstanding and make up. Both outcomes are in front of you. If you can bear the worst outcome and the best outcome is very attractive, then take the risk and give it a try."

Lin Wu was convinced, her eyes shining, "Okay."

Xu Jingwang peeled an orange for her and asked, "If the worst happens, will you cry?"

"How is that possible?" Lin Wu scoffed.

She lowered her head, ate a small segment of orange, chewed and swallowed it, and then whispered, "Okay, I'll cry."

Xu Jingwang leaned back in his chair. "What should we do then? I can reluctantly try to coax you then."

"Pah!" Lin Wu glared at him. "Reluctantly? If that really happens, you should be secretly happy."

"Um."

He smiled and didn't refute.

Lin Wu felt a strange heat in her ears.

She lowered her head uncomfortably and continued eating the orange.

The oranges were peeled very cleanly, and even the white pith was removed.

I ate the meal absentmindedly.

The two people who got engaged today were also absent-minded, and it's unclear what they were thinking.

After the engagement party ended, the guests left one by one.

Bo Shan remained seated without moving, and Lin Wu couldn't find an opportunity to intervene.

As the number of people around him dwindled, Usugi picked up his bag, seemingly about to leave.

Lin Wu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, and in desperation, she called out, "Bo Shan."

The girl in the distance suddenly froze and turned her head sharply.

Eyes facing each other.

She lost her grip on the bag and it fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Xu Jingwang smiled and nudged Lin Wu, "Go on, let's have a good talk."

……

Today is a beautiful sunny day.

Xu Jingwang lowered the car window and tapped his fingers on the handrail.

He was thinking, wondering if Lin Wu would still need his help if she reconciled with Bo Shan.

The answer is obvious: it's not needed.

The atmosphere in the carriage was silent and suffocating.

The driver stared ahead in despair.

I don't know how long it took, but the back door was opened.

Lin Wu fastened his seatbelt. "Let's go."

The driver dared not move, glancing at Mr. Xu through the rearview mirror.

Mr. Xu ignored him.

He just turned his head and stared blankly at Miss Lin.

Lin Wu frowned. "What's wrong?"

Xu Jingwang: "You...you and she didn't make up?"

"We've made up." Lin Wu smiled, overjoyed. "She was afraid of implicating me back then, and she's been looking for me lately. She was crying her eyes out just now. I'd never seen her before."

Xu Jing tried to laugh, but couldn't manage it. "Congratulations."

"Hehe." Lin Wu tilted her head. "By the way, give me an account number, and I'll transfer the money to you."

"..."

Xu Jingwang stared straight ahead and said, "Hmm."

Lin Wu gripped her phone. "Then give it to me. I can transfer the money to you right now."

Her tone was cheerful and lively; it was clear she had become wealthy.

Xu Jingwang: "..."

He pursed his lips. "Do you really have to give it to me right now?"

"..." Lin Wu thought for a moment, "I'll give it to you now. I'm used to being poor now, and I'm not used to having so much money on my card."

"it is good."

Xu Jingwang lowered his head and sent the bank card number to Lin Wu.

In his eyes, Lin Wu was eager to get rid of him.

Thinking about it carefully, it's actually quite normal.

Lin Wu disliked him from the very beginning.
