When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase-Chapter 541: Return to the Sheng Family (Part 1)

"Speaking of which, I still owe you an apology."

"Hmm?"

Tang Yanqi was lost in her own thoughts, and suddenly heard this sentence, then looked up at Lu Qilin.

Lu Qilin’s face was as gentle as ever, but there was a fleeting trace of self-mockery in his eyes: "Do you remember that day I invited you to dinner?"

"Yes."

"Actually, that day, I invited you to come half an hour early."

Tang Yanqi frowned, what does it mean to come half an hour early?

"The time I told you that day was half an hour earlier than the time I told your roommates. I wanted to have some time alone with you, it was a selfish wish of mine, I’m really sorry."

Tang Yanqi was very surprised, she had never thought about it like that before, but thinking back, there were signs. No wonder they all were late that day, no wonder no one apologized for being late, they even said it was because we arrived early.

Back then, Tang Yanqi didn’t think much of it, but thinking about it now, it was indeed a bit unusual.

After a two-second silence, Tang Yanqi smiled: "It’s fine, it’s all in the past now."

Leaving the café, Lu Qilin and Tang Yanqi walked back to the entrance of the accounting firm together. Lu Qilin looked in that direction for a few seconds before drawing back his gaze: "Yanqi, I have some business to attend to, I’ll head off first." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

After speaking, Lu Qilin walked towards his car, opened the door, and before getting in, he turned to look at Tang Yanqi: "I hope you won’t tell her that I came here. It’s my fault towards her, and some things are better left unknown."

Tang Yanqi nodded slightly. She couldn’t understand Lu Qilin. His visit here was obviously because of Bai Bing, and from his words just now, Tang Yanqi could also tell that he was very familiar with Bai Bing’s after-work hours and the best places to eat and play around here.

This kind of knowledge couldn’t have been gained in just a day or two. Since he was so attentive to Bai Bing, why didn’t he say anything?

Though she couldn’t understand, Tang Yanqi would definitely not say much about it. Matters of the heart are between two people, and it’s best not to have a third person involved, regardless of whether the intentions are good or not.

If Lu Qilin didn’t intend to be with Bai Bing, there are indeed some things she better not know.

Having been best friends for so many years, Tang Yanqi knew Bai Bing’s character well. They were the same kind of people. They seemed carefree, but in reality, they weren’t carefree at all.

Watching Lu Qilin leave, Tang Yanqi walked inside. Bai Bing was on the second floor. Without going up, she sat down in the first-floor lobby, since it was almost time to get off work, she would just wait for her here.

Just after six o’clock, people began trickling down the hallway. Tang Yanqi glanced down at a magazine, occasionally lifting her eyes to look.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd. Outside, at some point, a car had stopped, and then a man about 1.7 meters tall walked in with a large bouquet of roses.

The man boldly stood in the middle of the lobby, completely indifferent to the whispers and finger-pointing from the people around him.

Is this a confession?

Tang Yanqi took a couple of glances before turning her gaze away. She couldn’t handle such a flamboyant approach. Sorry.

Sending flowers is fine, confessing is fine, but coming to someone’s workplace to do it is a bit speechless.

Tang Yanqi didn’t pay much attention and looked down at her phone. Bai Bing had sent a WeChat message saying she would be coming down soon.

[I’m in the lo...]

Tang Yanqi hadn’t even finished her reply when a voice echoed in the lobby: "Bai Bing, I like you, be my girlfriend."
