Chapter 460: Such a big matter, yet handled so hastily?

After Han Chunming finished speaking, he looked at Su Meng, picked up the menu in front of her on the table, and then said:

"Come on, everyone, take a look, see what you'd like to eat."

"I'll treat."

"This Beijing-style stir-fry is nothing ordinary."

"My ingredients, they're proper braised meat, fresh and tender..."

Li Yuan laughed: "Then I won't be polite."

Han Chunming: "Don't be polite, order whatever you want."

After eating.

Su Meng and Han Chunming went out for a walk.

Her mood now is also somewhat complicated.

She's getting older and older.

She had hinted to Lin Shengli, but Lin Shengli showed no reaction.

She didn't think someone as smart as Lin Shengli would be unaware that she likes him.

Although she didn't want to rekindle an old flame, Han Chunming, aside from Lin Shengli, was the best man she knew.

As for Han Chunming.

He has always loved Su Meng.

He loves her deeply.

Over these years he has rejected many women.

Just so he could reunite with Su Meng's old dream.

Back then, he and Su Meng were just a step away from marriage.

If it weren't for wanting to obtain the Liu landlord's family's treasure, he wouldn't have left without saying a word to Su Meng.

Su Meng asked while walking:

In the song "Looking Back Again", which lyric do you like best?

Han Chunming looked at Su Meng and said:

"I know which line you like best."

Su Meng smiled and said:

"Then say it for me to hear."

Han Chunming: "Dim and dim, repeating over and over, plain and simple, calm and composed..."

Su Meng laughed:

"Alright, you."

Han Chunming felt a surge of emotion:

"Because these two lines were written especially like our love story."

"Sometimes bright, sometimes dark."

"When talking about a romance, it's about repeated ups and downs, dark skies and dark earth."

"In the end, it turned into plain and simple friends."

"Calm and composed neighbors."

"Even the people in the courtyard find it unsurprising."

Su Meng: "Is that my fault?"

Han Chunming joked:

"How did it become blaming your mom?"

Su Meng laughed:

"What are you saying, really."

Han Chunming let out a long sigh and said:

"Can I blame myself?"

"Everyone blames me."

Su Meng: "That's how it is."

"If you hadn't disappeared without a word back then, we would have been together already."

Han Chunming let out another long sigh and said:

"Although I had some justification back then."

"I told you, but you didn't listen."

"But this matter really is my fault."

"Blame me for not thinking things through."

"Actually, if I had explained it to you afterward..."

Su Meng interrupted:

"Back then, if you had explained it to me, I wouldn't have been able to take in anything at all."

"So, if you had explained it to me back then, I probably wouldn't have listened either."

Han Chunming: "Forget it, it's already in the past."

"Let's not bring it up again."

"Can we look forward?"

Su Meng nodded and said:

Ah, let me tell you something.

Han Chunming: "Go ahead."

Su Meng glanced at Han Chunming, hesitated a moment, and said.

"I'm preparing... to quit my job and go into business."

Han Chunming was a little surprised: "Really?"

"You've been doing just fine all along, haven't you?"

Su Meng: "Tsk, you still don't believe me?"

Han Chunming: "No, I'm not doubting you; I just think..."

Saying this, he looked at Su Meng, shook his head, and continued.

"I'll be blunt: you're not really suited for the business world."

Su Meng: "You're underestimating me?"

Han Chunming: "I'm not underestimating you."

"It's just your personality."

"Not really suited for the business world."

Su Meng: "Then this time I'll let you see how this thirty-something, approaching-forty old woman goes into business and swims."

Han Chunming smiled and said:

"In my eyes, you're not old at all, just like before."

"Really, still just like before."

Su Meng hearing this, felt a little pleased.

She smiled and said:

"I feel like hearing that it's the lover's eye making Xi Shi appear."

Han Chunming laughed and said:

"I'm saying, you now admit I'm your lover?"

Su Meng looked at Han Chunming, then openly said:

"What's there to be embarrassed about admitting?"

"Don't even mention our Siheyuan."

"The whole hutong knows, ah, the whole Big Fence knows."

"I, Su Meng, and you, Han Chunming, are just a pair of lunatics."

Han Chunming: "How are you talking?"

"That's called love as strong as gold, devoted and faithful, really."

Su Meng laughed and said:

"Don't try that on me."

"In my view, you have an unusual relationship with that lobby Manager."

Han Chunming: "No, what are you saying she's up to?"

"I have nothing going on with her."

Su Meng: "Look at you, why are you in a hurry?"

Han Chunming: "Who's in a hurry?"

Su Meng: "We don't have anything between us, so don't look at me and get anxious."

Han Chunming: "Yeah, if Su Nainai were still alive."

"She could still say a few more good words for me."

"Maybe then we'd become a thing."

Hearing that, Su Meng's mood sank a little.

She missed her grandmother.

Han Chunming also noticed, so he hurriedly said:

"Um, I misspoke."

Su Meng, somewhat choked up, said:

"Don't say that; I really do miss my grandmother."

Evening.

When Su Meng returned home, her parents were about to eat.

"I'm back."

Mother: "Oh, you're back."

"Hurry up, wash your hands and eat."

Su Meng sat on the sofa and said:

"I'm not eating, I've already eaten."

"I ate with Li Yuan."

"Li Yuan told me she's going to become a Deputy Bureau Chief."

Hearing that, Su Meng's father and mother couldn't help but exchange a glance.

Su Meng poured herself a cup of water, took a sip, and said:

"Let me tell you something."

Mother asked.

"What's the matter again?"

Su Meng hesitated for a moment, then said:

I'm getting ready to quit my job and go into business.

Hearing this, Su Meng's father and mother both looked shocked.

Mom asked:

Hey, did your uncle say something to you again?

Su Meng shook their head and said:

What the uncle said is just secondary.

The main thing is that Li Yuan and I are both coworkers and good friends.

If she ends up being my boss in the future, what would happen?

It would be better to just stay friends, right?

Father: "No, you want to quit just because of this?"

You're joking about your future over this?

Su Meng: "Of course it's not just because of this."

Dad, Mom, I've made up my mind, so don't try to talk me out of it.

Hearing this, Su Meng's father and mother exchanged a glance.

They were also speechless toward their daughter.

How could she be so rash?

This is a big deal.

And she didn't even discuss it with them.

Does she not even regard them as parents anymore?

But they know their precious daughter too well.

Once she's made a decision, not even nine oxen could pull her back.
