Chapter 123: Give Another Chance, Three Months

The small conference room, as the name suggests, is just a small living room.

After the whole family went in, the third Qin brother, who was walking last, casually closed the glass door.

In the small living room there was a rectangular conference table; for the family meeting, Xie Ningmeng was the host, sitting at the head of the table.

Then came Qin Siyuan, opposite him was Xie Wantang, beside Xie Wantang was Qin Muyang, and the second Qin brother and the third Qin brother sat on Qin Siyuan's side.

"Everyone is here; today's family meeting topic is Tang Bao."

"???"

Xie Wantang raised her head in doubt; the topic of the previous meeting was also her.

After such a long time, the family meeting is held again, and the topic is still her.

"What's wrong?" Xie Wantang asked proactively.

Last time's meeting was initiated by her asking Xie Ningmeng to host it.

"Tang Bao, what's going on between you and Lu Chen? I heard from your older brother that you two have feelings for each other—are you planning to get married?" Xie Ningmeng asked, getting straight to the point.

"..."

Um——

Xie Wantang glanced at her older brother.

Seeing Xie Wantang silent, Qin Siyuan explained: "Tang Bao, what Mom means is, if you two truly love each other and want to marry, our whole family has no objection."

"We think Lu Chen is not bad."

Qin Muyang nodded: "Tang Bao, the best way to forget Lu Yanshen is to start a new romance, and Lu Chen is so busy—who knows when he'll disappear into the lab again."

"While he's not so busy now, let's arrange your wedding—anyway, you never held a wedding with that Lu Yanshen kid, so this time we'll throw a big one."

"Dad, Mom, older brother, if I tell you that Lu Yanshen is Lu Chen and Lu Chen is Lu Yanshen, what would you do?" Xie Wantang finally spoke her mind.

It's the same person; when he is Lu Yanshen, her family does not accept him.

But when he is Lu Chen, her family greatly appreciates him.

"What does that mean?" the third Qin brother couldn't understand.

In the business world, he is a domineering tycoon, but his intelligence is entirely used to calculate gains and losses.

Now it's completely insufficient.

Thus, Heaven is still quite fair.

"Really just one person?" Apart from the third Qin brother, the others all questioned in unison.

"Hmm." Xie Wantang nodded.

"Then everything that happened before can be let go."

This sentence was what Xie Ningmeng said to Qin Siyuan.

"Yeah, I've always had doubts, but all the pieces were missing a crucial link—now that link has finally been established." Qin Siyuan nodded.

"He's hidden himself deeply; moreover, over these three years, how did he portray another man's persona so well? If he went into acting, he'd definitely win an Oscar."

After the second Qin brother figured it out, he also gave Lu Chen an evaluation.

The eldest Qin brother suddenly realized: "This guy is really good at deceiving people; at first I thought he was familiar, but he just wouldn't admit it—I really thought there were two of them in this world……"

In the world, there indeed is a person named Lu Yanshen, but three years ago, their family's Tang Bao married Lu Chen.

"Then let's get the certificate quickly; after that, we'll all arrange our work to free up time for your wedding—this will also make up for everyone's wish."

Xie Ningmeng's word was final; she prepared to adjourn the meeting.

"Mom, I didn't expect it to happen so fast." Xie Wantang pulled Xie Ningmeng's hand.

"Huh? You still want to date? Sure, tell us your plan, and we'll cooperate—okay?" Xie Ningmeng is the best mother in the world.

One glance revealed Xie Wantang's thoughts.

Also, three years ago they rushed to get the certificate because the other party was in a wheelchair, so they never managed to have a wedding.

Afterward, the First Love returned, and soon the two divorced.

Indeed, they never had time to date.

"What on earth are you talking about? Is anyone going to pay attention to me? I don't understand a thing." Seeing everyone talking to themselves, the third Qin brother was very troubled.

"You're silly—are you a tycoon or not?" The second Qin brother turned to respond to him.

By the way, he briefly described this relationship in his own way to the third Qin brother; the third Qin brother hadn't understood earlier, just because his mind hadn't caught up.

Now that he's turned his thinking around, he understands.

"So, is the real Lu Yanshen alive or dead?" The third Qin brother, now understanding, threw out an unanswerable question.

Everyone fell silent for a moment; finally, Xie Ningmeng gave a direction: "Regardless of whether that person is alive or dead, it doesn't concern us much—Tang Bao and Lu Chen's matter today will be decided by Tang Bao's own arrangement."

"Okay, Mom." The three Qin brothers replied in unison.

Xie Wantang's final decision was to give Lu Chen a three-month chance to pursue her again.

If she is satisfied, she will remarry him.

Anyway, she happens to be studying for three months under Professor Wu at LC Group.

……

An sen's case was resolved, and Xu Yanqiu's personal safety was secured.

Xu Yanqiu could move back into her previous apartment, but because the neighboring situation was like that, with Qin Muyang's help, she reached a settlement with the landlord, who agreed to refund two-thirds of the rent.

The remaining one-third is considered compensation for the landlord's loss during this period.

Xu Yanqiu also agreed.

Xu Yanqiu's manuscript passed review, and it is the original script for a short drama.

They need it urgently there, which means Xu Yanqiu's upcoming time won't be free or very regular.

In the Qin family, although servants attended to her three meals a day, their lives were too regular; Xu Yanqiu, living in the Qin family, had to match their schedule.

But the work she had to do next made it impossible for her to cooperate as before.

So she still decided to move out.

Xie Wantang couldn't persuade her, so she agreed.

This time, Xu Yanqiu found a relatively spacious two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment; the estate's security was very good, and moreover, it was a one-elevator-two-household layout, with the neighbor across the hall being a family of three.

The child is a girl attending junior high school, about thirteen or fourteen years old, very well-behaved and obedient.

After the girl goes to school, her parents also have to go to work, so no one is home during the day; Xu Yanqiu could sleep until dark and still not be disturbed.

She writes manuscripts at night, equally quiet, and won't disturb anyone.

Xie Wantang helped her check it out, and she was also very satisfied.

The landlord was also very easy to talk to, letting Xu Yanqiu choose the payment method, and accepting a one-month deposit with one-month payment.

Xu Yanqiu had learned to behave; although Qin Muyang was a very capable lawyer, she also didn't want to keep causing trouble for others, so she chose the one-month deposit, one-month payment option.

After settling Xu Yanqiu in, Xie Wantang's subsequent life became truly very regular and very stable.
