just fall in love with you

Chapter 24

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the office, Zheng Weiqian watched the sunset outside the window dye the sky red. He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had seen the sunset so well. Before, he would give himself a vacation and go to a small town to stay with his grandma for a few days , although he didn't really leave his job there, but the environment and atmosphere of the small town can make him relax.Now that grandma is here, so naturally he has one less good excuse to relax his emotions.

Shanghai is a fast-paced city. Once you stop for a long time, you will be overwhelmed by crowds, and the same is true for shopping malls.How many companies are staring at the 'prey' in your hand, ready to launch the 'prey' in your hand at any time, so he must remind himself not to slow down at all times, otherwise he will be overwhelmed by the crowd, so he He learned to hide his emotions, he learned not to let anyone or anything affect him, even his feelings.

Zheng Weiqian withdrew his gaze, returned to his seat after relaxing and picked up the meeting report he had just read halfway through.

Time passed little by little, and the gorgeous sunset was replaced by the dark night with a few faint stars. The only thing that remained unchanged was the man who worked hard at the desk.

bell... bell...

A crisp phone ring suddenly broke the silence of the room, and also made the man who had been buried in his work pull his thoughts out of the pile of documents.

"Hello, Mom." After answering the phone, Zheng Weiqian's voice was slightly tired.

"Weiqian, where are you now? Are you still in the company? Didn't I agree with you yesterday that grandma's birthday will come back early today?" Zhang Haiying's voice came from the phone.

The memory is rewinding. Yesterday, my mother confirmed with him that today is grandma’s birthday and asked him to go back to eat early, because grandma likes to be quiet, so everyone decided that today the family can have a quiet meal together.And it seems that Xiaoya also called him before leaving get off work to ask him to go back early today.

Zheng Weiqian rubbed his eyebrows angrily, and said, "I'll go back right away." How could he forget about this.

Pack up your files and bring along the ones you haven't finished reading.

Driving the car out of the garage, it happened that Fang Yan had just left the company and was about to solicit a taxi at the door, with an anxious expression on his face.

Zheng Weiqian looked at the woman who had been waving towards the road, and looked intently, but did not drive forward.In the past, he would definitely step forward, but now it seems that there is no need.Withdrawing his gaze, he restarted the car and left. The car passed by Fang Yan without stopping, and he didn't even look at her, just drove by in a hurry.

Looking at the car driving away, Fang Yan felt a little lost, did he not see himself just now?Looking back, since there is no ride, it seems that I can only accept my fate and continue to stop the car.

I just received a call from my grandma saying that it's her birthday today and I asked her to come to my house for a light meal.When I left the company, I didn't stop the car. I suddenly saw Zheng Weiqian's car driving by. I wanted to say that we just happened to be together casually, but I didn't expect that he looked cold and stunned because he didn't see me.

When Zheng Weiqian walked into the house, everyone was still chatting and listening in the living room, talking and laughing, the atmosphere was very good.

"I'm sorry grandma, I've been too busy recently, I won't do it next time." Putting down his briefcase, Zheng Weiqian took the initiative to admit his mistake to grandma.

"There are some things that can be done by the people below, so don't take care of them all by yourself. You are old enough to think about your own affairs." The old lady was most concerned about his marriage.

"Let's eat then, grandma must be hungry after waiting for so long." Not wanting to discuss too much about his own affairs, Zheng Weiqian hurriedly changed the subject, "Sister-in-law Wang, let's serve dinner."

"Wait a minute, there are still people not here." The old lady stopped.

"There are still people." Zheng Weiqian was puzzled, "Isn't it just our family?" Who has such a big name and hasn't come yet.

The doorbell rang at this time, and it wasn't long before Fang Yan entered the room with a smile on his face.He greeted those present with a smile.The old lady was even more happy to take her to talk about homework.

Zheng Weiqian didn't expect grandma to ask her to come to the house for dinner, so she stopped the car in a hurry just now to come here.

"I didn't know that today is grandma's birthday, so I didn't prepare any gifts." Fang Yan said embarrassedly.

"I don't want you to come, I don't want your gift, I will be very happy if you come to have a meal with me." The old lady took her hand and patted it gently.

After Fang Yan said this, Zheng Weiqian realized that he also forgot to prepare a gift for grandma.

"Everyone is here, Mrs. Wang, let's serve dinner." Zheng Jialun, the head of the family, said.

"Yes, Mom, let's eat first, and we'll talk after eating." Zhang Haiying stepped forward to help the old lady walk to the restaurant.

Fang Yan turned around and was about to walk towards the restaurant, happened to meet Zheng Weiqian's eyes, and wanted to say hello, but unexpectedly he turned his head and walked straight towards the restaurant.

Fang Yan is a sensitive person, and she can clearly feel his alienation from his attitude tonight, unlike the past where he always greeted each other even if they bickered.Today he clearly saw himself, but he still turned a blind eye and drove past her, and now since she entered the door just now, he has not greeted her, nor has she smiled.However, this sense of alienation made her feel very uncomfortable, and she couldn't explain why.

Even though the dinner was home-cooked, the atmosphere was quite good, and there was a lot of laughter after the meal.After the meal, Mrs. Zheng likes to chat with Fang Yan as usual, and because she is the birthday star today, she asks other people to accompany her, occasionally interjecting a few words.

Good times are always short-lived, and before you know it, it's late at night, and it's time for Fang Yan to bid farewell to everyone.The old lady was worried that she would go back alone, so she insisted on asking Zheng Weiqian to see her off.Although Zheng Weiqian intended to alienate her, he had no doubts about sending her back.

In the car, Zheng Weiqian looked ahead seriously and drove his car carefully.Beside him, Fang Yan sensed his deliberate alienation and did not want to make fun of himself, so he turned his head and kept looking out the window.Although she didn't understand why he was like this, her pride made her not ready to ask him why.

"I didn't know grandma invited you, so I didn't invite you to the car." Perhaps because he couldn't stand the silence, Zheng Weiqian said suddenly.

"It's okay, I didn't want to take your car." As proud as she was, even if she really wanted to take his car at the beginning, Fang Yan would never admit it now.

Zheng Weiqian glanced at her and said nothing until he sent her to the door of his house.

Fang Yan thanked him politely, and turned to go in.The moment she turned around, Fang Yan felt her heart was sore, so sore that she wanted to cry.

Zheng Weiqian watched her go in, and stayed there for a while before driving away again.
