Chapter 305: If you feel sad and painful, then that

~8 min read 1,421 words

The gazes of a few people fell upon Lu Qiao.

They were all in the same office and usually had a good relationship, so it was inevitable that they felt worried.

After Shen Yun said it out loud, she felt very smug.

She looked at Lu Qiao provocatively.

Let's see what you do now?

If you write it for me, will you feel sad, will you feel painful?

If you feel sad and painful, then that's exactly right!

If you don't write it, I'll shout it out immediately and make you lose all face!

Lu Qiao remained seated behind her desk, leaning back in her chair, looking straight at Shen Yun with a smile: "Comrade Shen Yun, having me write the marriage certificate for you and Lin Junan, that's no problem. I won't carry any personal emotions, and I guarantee I'll write it beautifully!"

After a pause, Lu Qiao's voice still carried a smile: "But the problem is, Comrade Shen Yun, every time you see the handwriting on the marriage certificate and remember that it was written by me, Lu Qiao, will you feel happy, or will you feel happy? If you're happy, then I'll write it for you."

Auntie Liu nodded with satisfaction.

That's right, our Lu Qiao doesn't care, so why do you care?

Shen Yun's expression changed instantly, and she stared blankly at Lu Qiao.

There was still no pain or sadness on her face.

Clearly, she had liked him so much before; can matters of the heart really be forgotten just like that?

Also, why was it that every time this person spoke, she was left with no room to refute, and even had the feeling of hitting cotton with a hammer?

Seeing Lu Qiao stand up and prepare to walk over, Lin Junan grabbed Shen Yun. Without looking at Lu Qiao, he said gently to Auntie Liu: "Please write it for us, thank you."

Lu Qiao curled her lips in disappointment.

She really wanted to write it for them.

She didn't like Lin Junan; she considered him less than a stranger, so how could she be heartbroken just by writing a marriage certificate for him?

You guys are overthinking it!

Lu Qiao sat back in her seat with no interest, not even lifting her eyelids, and continued her statistical work on the autumn bungalow residents' wintering.

Everyone in the large office was holding back laughter.

Someone looked at the pale-faced Shen Yun.

In the corner, Auntie Tong and Sister Qiao whispered to each other.

"Shen Yun looks very smart, so why does she seem so unintelligent? If it were me, I would choose to register when Lu Qiao isn't here. Why insist on doing this in front of Lu Qiao? It's as if our Lu Qiao takes her very seriously."

"Yeah, I don't understand either. She even asked Lu Qiao to write her marriage certificate. Does she think Lu Qiao will feel sad or painful?

She doesn't even look up to see what Lu Qiao's expression is; she's always so self-righteous."

"Exactly. She almost made a fool of herself. But it also proves that this person has a bad heart."

"Luckily these two are married, otherwise I'd really be worried that Lin Junan would see how excellent our Lu Qiao is and turn around to pester her."

Sister Qiao nodded quietly: "It's fine now, no need to worry."

This small disturbance passed quickly. Lin Junan never looked at Lu Qiao, and Shen Yun silently took the candies out of her bag and placed them on Auntie Liu's desk.

Looking at the completed marriage certificate, for some reason, Shen Yun didn't feel the joy she had imagined.

She really couldn't help but take another look at Lu Qiao.

Lu Qiao was still Lu Qiao!

But she was just different.

She couldn't help but recall the time she held her hand and whispered: "Xiao Yun, let's be good sisters for a lifetime, okay?"

What was she thinking in her heart at that time? Oh, she was calling her a big fool.

She even felt a secret pleasure.

Because before Lu Qiao said that, Brother Junan had just come back from watching a movie with her.

At the time, she was still thinking, is Lin Junan's grandfather sick in the head? Why did he have to set up a so-called arranged marriage for them?

Then she also thought, the Lu family is just greedy for vanity; such an arranged marriage should have been discarded, so why did they still have to fulfill the engagement?

Wasn't it because they had their eyes on the Lin family's capabilities and Brother Junan's excellence?

So, if you really want to talk about it, they were both the same; neither was more noble than the other.

She used to think everything was taken for granted.

Until everything was uncovered.

Shen Yun withdrew her gaze.

Lin Junan didn't want to delay either. After thanking everyone, he took Shen Yun's hand and left the neighborhood office.

He could even imagine how those older sisters were discussing him behind his back.

He wanted to blame Shen Yun, but as soon as he thought about how she would extrapolate countless possibilities and consequences, he felt a headache.

So he decisively shut his mouth.

Furthermore, from beginning to end, he refused to look at Lu Qiao.

Don't look, don't think, don't know!

Only by doing this could he avoid regretting being with Shen Yun.

No one in the large office discussed them; it was all in the past, especially given such an awkward relationship.

Auntie Liu said: "What about Shao Le? He's been on leave for so long, why hasn't he come back yet? Do you know what he's doing now?"

Lu Qiao knew this.

It was her most excellent little scout, Little Cangcang, who told her.

But she knew it too specifically.

And she had forgotten to share it with Sister Qiao and the others, so Lu Qiao decisively shut her mouth.

In such a large office, with over a dozen people here today counting data, someone must know.

But she didn't expect it to be Old Teng, who usually didn't like to talk much.

Old Teng was over forty and wore glasses. He was a statistician who dealt with data every day. Because all data reports were handwritten, it looked easy, but it was actually very hard work.

He said slowly and softly: "Shao Le went back to the Zhao family. He didn't change his name; he's called Zhao Shao Le. Isn't his father called Zhao Laolai Zi? As soon as Shao Le entered the door, he asked Shao Le for money."

"Who would have thought that Shao Le would walk around the house and yard, and then actually ask him for money, saying he was about to get married. Before, the Shao family managed things, but he didn't expect things to happen so suddenly, and he became a Zhao. Seeing that he wasn't married yet, as a father, shouldn't he care about his son's marriage?"

Although Old Teng didn't like to talk much on weekdays, his narrative ability was quite strong.

It caused everyone in the office to neglect their work, putting down what they were doing and running over to Old Teng's area to listen to the gossip.

Old Teng smiled and said: "That Zhao Laolai Zi clearly didn't expect this turn of events. Before he could ask for money again, Shao Le started calculating accounts with him. He hadn't been working for long, having only received two months of salary, and he had basically been using the Shao family's money."

"Shao Le said at the time, 'I've worked hard with Shao Yonggang all these years to support you, which is different. I was truly raised properly by the Shao family.'"

"'I've only earned some money these past two months; before that, I was eating and drinking for free. The Shao family has already done their best by not calculating accounts with me and asking you for money.'"

"'You say you're asking me for money now, where am I supposed to get it? Should I steal or rob? Or should I go smash a bank and say it was you, my father, who instigated me to do it? Then how about we both go to jail together?'"

Everyone in the large office went "Wow."

Auntie Liu clapped her hands with a beaming smile: "Oh my, I really didn't expect it. Shao Le, this kid, speaks so sharply; it sounds so satisfying." ===== CHAPTER 306 =====
