Zhang Mingyang hid Xia Xingruo very well.

Xu Duanran never found traces of another girl on him.

Perhaps it was the rush of returning this time that allowed her to discover the clues.

She clearly knew that such a person existed.

But sometimes I still deceive myself and pretend that such a person never appeared.

The headband lay quietly in Xu Duanran's hand.

It is very common and can be bought casually on the roadside, but it is no longer common because of its owner.

Xu Duanran felt that he should have various emotions now.

Either sad, angry, or jealous.

But surprisingly, she is very calm now, surprisingly calm.

She was clearly holding Xia Xingruo's headband, but it didn't cause any waves in her heart.

Maybe she was numb, or maybe she really didn't think about anything.

She had been deceiving herself with her usual sweetness and importance, but these unintentional details that appeared in her life brought her back to reality.

After all, there is still a gap between them that can never be healed.

Xu Duanran held the headband and stood there in silence for a long time.

Although she was calm inside, she felt weak all over, and it took her a long time to finally take control of her body.

Facing the headband in her hand, she did nothing but put it back in place and tidied up her open wallet.

"Well, that's it."

I don’t know who I am talking to when I say this to myself.

"Why are you still in the room? Shen Congyi came over and said he was here to give you a mobile phone."

Zhang Mingyang walked out of the door and returned again.

At this time, Xu Duanran was already standing in front of the desk sorting out the books he had just rummaged through, as calm as if nothing had happened, as usual.

"I'll go down right away," she responded.

The moment Xu Duanran turned his head, Zhang Mingyang immediately noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with the eldest lady.

Having lived together since childhood, no matter how well she pretends, he can detect her mood swings immediately.

To a certain extent, it can be regarded as a tacit understanding.

Although he didn't know what happened, Zhang Mingyang knew what he should do now.

He took the initiative to walk to Xu Duanran and took her hand.

"Let's go down together."

"Um."

Xu Duanran agreed softly.

She wanted to pretend that she didn't find anything or see anything just now, but this was unrealistic.

She obviously felt surprisingly calm inside, but she just couldn't be happy.

It was so calm that not only was there no sadness, but even happiness seemed to have disappeared altogether.

On the way downstairs, the two of them didn't say a word, they just walked forward quietly holding hands.

Until Shen Congyi broke the silence between the two.

"Of course, I bought you a new mobile phone. Can you come over and take a look at this?"

She stood downstairs and waved to the two people on the stairs.

Xu Duanran's cell phone was broken when Shen Yuan pushed him.

It rolled on the ground several times, and finally fell down the stairs to the bottom floor, completely eliminating the possibility of being repaired.

After settling the matter with Shen Yuan, Shen Congyi immediately bought a new mobile phone, asked Jiang Wen for the address and delivered it to her door in person.

"Yeah, Sister Shen, I even said you don't need to buy it for me."

Facing Shen Congyi, Xu Duanran smiled and seemed to be back to normal.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Mingyang sighed silently. I don't know when the eldest lady learned to hide her emotions.

"Come and see if this works. If not, I'll go back and change it."

Xu Duanran was still evading, but Zhang Mingyang was not polite and directly opened the packaging box on the coffee table and took out the mobile phone inside.

This mobile phone is exactly the same as the one he bought for Liu Wenfu and his wife a few days ago.

After unpacking the box, he handed the mobile phone to Xu Duanran.

"They've all brought it to you, so don't take it for free."

Before Xu Duanran could shirk, Zhang Mingyang continued: "Stop standing here and go upstairs to eat together."

The change came so fast that neither of them could react.

Shen Congyi wanted to refuse, but just as he was about to speak, Zhang Mingyang had already pulled Xu Duanran upstairs.

"It just so happens that you have something to tell her, right?"

Zhang Mingyang didn't know why the eldest lady was depressed.

Maybe it's because of the eucalyptus thing?

Xu Duanran didn't say anything about letting Shen Congyi stay for dinner.

Out of politeness, she should be allowed to eat.

What she didn't know was that Zhang Mingyang kept Shen Congyi just to make her happy.

"Well, Sister Shen, I have some new ideas for your project. I just finished talking to Master and I just want to talk to you." Xu Duanran continued.

"Thanks a lot."

As for Shen Congyi, she didn't want to stay for dinner.

But because he didn't want to refute Zhang Mingyang's face, he had no choice but to stay.

Although Xu Duanran behaved normally, she was keenly aware that something might have gone wrong between the two of them.

In this way, the three of them went upstairs to eat together with different moods.

The dinner table is very lively today.

Not only because there are two more people who don't usually come here often, but also because Zhang Mingyang is here and he can't let the dinner table be silent.

Shen Congyi ate the meal very quickly, and except for occasionally communicating with Xu Duanran, she basically didn't speak.

The first thing she learned since she came to middle school was to observe more and talk less.

Through observation, she quickly understood the identities and relationships of the people present.

And discovered something that surprised her.

Among the people present, some seemed not to know that Xu Duanran was pregnant.

The children didn't know she could understand, but one of them looked like the nanny didn't seem to know either.

Perhaps Xu Duanran had no intention of telling the people around him from the beginning.

They also made an unexpected discovery today.

In the beginning, Shen Congyi did think so.

But for some reason, she always had a feeling.

Xu Duanran seemed to deliberately want her to know about this matter, and he continued to deepen her impression.

He had this thought until he walked out of the girl's room.

Although she had many doubts in her heart, she did not ask any questions.

After saying goodbye to Xu Duanran, he packed up his things and went downstairs.

"Ready to leave?"

As soon as she arrived at the door, she saw Zhang Mingyang sitting on the stair stool at the door.

"Thank you for what happened today."

Shen Congyi still did not forget to thank the person in front of him.

She thought about it and didn't leave in a hurry. Instead, she also sat on the stair stool at the door.

"Is there anything else you need to ask me? I'm still saying the same thing, just take some money and leave."

Zhang Ming thought Shen Congyi wanted to ask about the electronics factory.

After she sat down, she didn't speak in a hurry, but skillfully took out the cigarette case from her pocket.
