"As long as it's you, I don't think my answer needs to be thought through."

"I thought I told you." During lunch, Liang Chen sat across the dining table and said with a nonchalant expression.

Cheng Yan raised his eyes to look at the other party, and then continued to lower his head and put the order into the bowl.

To be honest, when he was discovered by Liang Chen in the morning, he felt his cold sweat dripping down, but he never thought that Liang Chen didn't take it seriously.

"It scared you all in the morning," Liang Chen bit his chopsticks and laughed, and said calmly, "I know who said it, and I didn't hide this from the people in the original department. They all know that it will be a matter of time before they pass."

"..." Cheng Yan didn't know how to answer this for a while, and then heard her say again: "Besides, it was a normal thing at first, but maybe I remembered it wrong and forgot to tell you."

"When?" Cheng Yan waited for a while, then suddenly said.

"Huh?" Liang Chen looked at him, "Do you say confession or love?"

This way of distinguishing... Cheng Yan was silent for a while, and then asked, "I mean... I like it."

"I like him, so I'll just come to this company. You know, when I first started, didn't I go to the famous old Yan as an assistant? After a few contacts, I felt that this man was quite a gentleman, so I was a little tempted." Liang Chen said with a smile, "You know, my family is not urging me. I think it is inevitable to encounter such a man at this age. Thought, he looks good and has a warm personality like him, and it can be regarded as the ideal type in everyone's mouth."

Indeed, Cheng Yan immediately sighed in his heart, after all, it was expected that Huo Sheng would be popular with women, but he never thought that Liang Chen would be included in it.

He sighed slightly: "You're right."

Unexpectedly, this reaction made Liang Chen laugh out loud, and even asked quickly, "Ayan, what's wrong with you?"

"What's wrong?" Cheng Yan didn't understand.

"It's not like you," the person on the opposite side smiled and put down his chopsticks, then put his arms around his arms, with a very interested expression: "You are usually not interested in these things, but I haven't been with you for so many years. It can be seen that you still have a heart of gossip."

"Although," Liang Chen paused and said to himself with a smile, "the object of this gossip is your only friend - me."

"So... Could it be that you suddenly have new thoughts about me?" She suddenly changed her clothes and looked slightly terrified. After speaking, she quickly took a breath as if she couldn't believe it, and then quickly shook her head. , completely lost her usual ladylike manner and said, "I don't want to eat your way. We are good sisters and brothers for a lifetime."

It was as if he was still in junior high school. Cheng Yan was speechless, opened his mouth back and forth, tried to refute it several times, but was unable to speak.

Seeing his appearance, Liang Chen laughed again like he did in school, then waved his hand and said, "It's alright, I'm not kidding you, why are you still so dumb, I just thought After teasing you once, I finally succeeded."

Cheng Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked softly, "Then... Then what do you think?"

When the words fell, Liang Chen fell silent unexpectedly, and after a while, she spoke again.

"Hey, it's a bit complicated to talk about." The smile that was still on her face just now was completely taken in, and the whole person's sitting posture became slightly more upright.

"Well, it's actually Mr. Huo's personal affair, and I heard about it," Liang Chen said, "I heard from an old employee who came with him before."

"What is it?" Cheng Yan asked slightly hastily.

Liang Chen was a little surprised, paused, but still said, "Have you heard about his wife?"

Cheng Yan was slightly startled after hearing this, and then shook his head after thinking about it.

Upon seeing this, Liang Chen took the chopsticks back into his hands, took two small bites of the dishes, and then said, "Mrs. Huo died in a car accident. I heard that he was very depressed for a while, saying that he has not been invited. All the annual leave that I have passed is used up in one go."

"I heard about it at the time, but I gave up in my heart." When she said this, she couldn't help laughing at herself. "You know, women are a little bit particular."

"Pay attention?" Cheng Yan didn't understand.

"How can I say it, it is true that such a man is not easy to meet, and I will definitely want to cherish it when I meet it, but," Liang Chen sighed, "How can a living person compare to the one who has passed away?"

Cheng Yan's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, but when he thought about it, it was indeed the same.

It's just that when he heard it on Friday, he didn't think about it. After all, it was impossible for the other party to be with him, let alone make a comparison.

But... if it's me...

"Of course others may accept it," Liang Chen's voice sounded across the dining table again, "but I can't, I can't accept this. I will hope that the person I love is also single-minded towards me, I don't want him to pretend to be in his heart. There is another existence, no matter who I can compare to."

After listening, Cheng Yan raised his eyes and looked at the other party, but did not make a decision.

Just like the question he wanted to ask himself, what would he choose if it was placed on him? In fact, the answer doesn't even need to be thought about. It's just that it's not him who has the power to choose now. In a completely impossible matter, how can you talk about power without power.

He slightly twitched the corner of his mouth and said to Liang Chen, "Then you still choose to be his assistant."

"Then why not," Liang Chen blinked, "Whether he is suitable for a partner is not the same as whether he is suitable for being a boss."

"Yes." Cheng Yan smiled, the answer was indeed Liang Chen's style.

"It's you, how have you been recently?" Liang Chen asked him instead.

"How about what?" Cheng Yan replied.

"Don't your family urge you to get married?" The person on the other side couldn't help but be surprised, and after a while, he said helplessly: "My mother has been nagging to death recently, and my family has arranged a blind date, and I am so worried. "

Cheng Yan laughed out loud, "I never thought you would have such a day when I was in school."

"Yeah, I didn't think about it either," Liang Chen sighed, "I really don't know if I don't live in society. The time period when I can meet many excellent men is actually in college."

"Really?" Seeing that the conversation was almost over, Cheng Yan waved to the waiter while answering.

After the bill was settled, both of them stood up, only to hear Liang Chen say again, "Yeah, everyone is well-dressed now, and it's exhausting to judge."

Cheng Yan heard these words in his ears and didn't care too much.

But she didn't want to wait until the two were about to walk to the office, when Liang Chen suddenly pulled his arm to stop him, and after a brief stillness, she suddenly pulled Cheng Yan closer, her eyes narrowed slightly, "I seem to remember something."

"What's the matter?" Cheng Yan was puzzled.

"I did forget about this detail when we talked about it at the dinner table just now," Liang Chen's tone was a little uncertain, "Didn't I hear about her wife at the time? I remember someone else. He told me that something big happened to him and his wife half a year before the car accident."

event? As soon as Cheng Yan asked a question in his heart, he saw Liang Chen pat him again, and then smiled and said, "Forget it, I won't tell you, maybe I remembered it wrong." Then he opened the office door. , go inside.

And Cheng Yan, who stayed outside, just lowered his eyes and thought about it, and then walked in.
