Chapter 440 - 418 How could he possibly like her?
Dudu was instantly stunned, swallowing his saliva, and for a moment, was at a loss for words.She felt that such words must be a joke. How could he possibly like her? She had once gone to such lengths but failed to move him. It couldn’t possibly be that after she left, he realized her importance because he felt uneasy?
How could such a thing happen to them? When she got married, he was indifferent. Even if it were true, it was probably just that he was annoyed by his grandmother’s arranged dates, casually finding someone he could easily handle, thinking she was easy to use and discard when he wanted. She wouldn’t be fooled so easily.
She stood up, walked to the cashier, paid the bill, and left him behind as she walked out. Shen Yiran sat at the table, sighed softly, turned his head to watch her departing figure through the window, and couldn’t help but lament. She had indeed changed, becoming more rational than before.
Dudu walked around the street. When enough time had passed, she returned to the teahouse, stood in a corner, and glanced at the previous seat, which was now cleaned up, and he was gone.
She inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief, but his words still stirred her thoughts. Although she didn’t know if he was sincere, she appeared calm and indifferent on the surface while her mind was in turmoil.
Sitting by the window, the afternoon sun gently fell on her, and it also shone on the small potted plant on the table.
The person for the blind date arrived on time, and Dudu absentmindedly dealt with it. After asking her a lot of information, he asked, "Are you a virgin?"
Dudu chuckled, looked back at him calmly, and answered, "No."
The man’s previously satisfied expression immediately turned to disappointment, and he began to find excuses to leave. Clearly, it was another failed blind date. However, it turned out just as Dudu wished. She even thought that if her mother arranged another blind date, she should just tell the person outright that she’s not a virgin. Wouldn’t that save more time?
From the warm afternoon to the cool evening, her holiday ended in such aimless idleness.
When did the carefree life turn into what it is now? She even forgot how to clear her mind. Even when she closed her eyes, annoying things filled her thoughts, tossing and turning throughout the night. By the time she went to work the next day, her mental state was no better.
"Su Yutong? Su Yutong?"
"Tongtong, the team leader is calling you!"
Being gently pushed by a coworker beside her, Dudu suddenly raised her head, stood up, and respectfully looked at the team leader. "Wh-What’s the matter?"
The team leader glared at her and said, "These are the materials needed for later. Take a good look at them, don’t make any mistakes, and don’t daydream."
Dudu took the materials, still confused, and started flipping through them absentmindedly, not knowing what the team leader had mentioned. She replied muddleheadedly, "Got it," and then immediately asked the coworker beside her, "What did the team leader ask me to do?"
"Are you even working seriously? The company is going to negotiate a cooperation project with Future Technology. Our department selected two technical staff to go, and you are one of them."
"Future Technology?" His company?
A place where she used to go to cause trouble whenever she had time, now she somewhat wanted to avoid it. Even though she still had some fantasies about him, she didn’t want to repeat her mistakes. So, what she could do was avoid contacting him. But it seemed things always went against one’s wishes.
