Chapter 121: You're Smarter Than Your Mother

of them walked slowly down, stopping for a while and then continuing, it was quite pleasant. 。Actually, Shu Tinglan didn't say that the glass plank road where they took their wedding photos was very...Wenlan just smiled: "Lanlan, you're smarter than I imagined, and even smarter than your mother." 。"My mom isn't unintelligent, she's just too kind." 。As they spoke, Zhuo Yu'an and Wen Jian returned one after the other. It seemed they had no communication throughout the entire process. 。Wen Jian eats a vegetarian diet, so breakfast is just a glass of orange juice and a slice of whole wheat bread. 。Give Wenlan a little more, a cup of milk, an egg, and a small plate of salad plus a slice of bread. 。On the other hand, Shu Tinglan's breakfast was much more plentiful, mainly consisting of Chinese dishes. There was everything you could imagine, carefully arranged in small plates for her. 。"You really think you're feeding pigs" she muttered under her breath. It's a buffet, what if you can't finish it

"It's fine, just try everything, I'll eat whatever you don't." 。"

That's alright" 。"Waste not, want not" 。Breakfast, well, I was in a hurry to get to work, so I ate it quickly. 。Just as she was about to leave, Wen Lan suddenly said:

"Lanlan, last time Xiao Jian started the fight with you first. Your aunt scolded her at home. Don't hold it against her. For your aunt's sake, please forgive her." 。If you're really mad, you can slap her. 。 。Shutinglan sneered inwardly. Wenlan's words weren't necessarily meant for her, but more likely for Zhuo YUANAN. After all, when it came to cultivating an image of a cultured and generous woman in front of men, she was the best. 。Wen Jian wore an icy expression, and she didn't agree with her mother's way of handling the problem. She still had her own pride; she would take responsibility for her actions, but she would never say sorry to Shu Tinglan. 。She turned and stormed off. 。Shu Tinglan smiled at Wen Lan. This kind of trick, when she was a child, she didn't understand the difference and thought her aunt was kind. Now, of course, she wasn't moved. 。Zhuo Yu'an nodded to Wen Lan, then put his arm around Shu Tinglan's shoulder and walked towards the underground car park. 。

“You did a great job today” 。 。"" Zhu Yunan was puzzled, after all, he wanted to hear praise from her, which was unheard of. 。He guessed, "Was it because you were satisfied with my performance last night"

Still have a face Shu Tinglan's eyes almost rolled out of her head. 。He continued, "We can do better tonight." 。"

“Get out!” Buckle up and turned to look out the car window, ignoring him. " 。She was referring to his performance just now. At least in front of Wen Lan and Wen Jian, he made his stance very clear, standing by her. He handled the closeness and distance with everyone perfectly. 。Shu Tinglan no longer dwells on the details. The world of adults is not black and white. Zhuo Y uan and Wen Jian have a long history of friendship, and there are company interests involved. It's unrealistic to expect him to sever ties completely. 。Zuo Yu'an just smiled with a smirk, and stopped talking. He felt this was really good, really good, that everything had a chance to start over. 。Taking a turn, they arrived at Hongzheng Law Firm's office building. Shu Tinglan hurriedly told the driver to stop on the side of the road so she could get out and walk in separately from him. 。"There's no need for that, right" Although Zhuo Yu'an said this, he knew her stubborn temper and slowly parked the car on the side of the road to let her out. 。

"Be careful" 。He rolled down the car window and instructed the person who had already gotten out of the car. 。She was long gone, the click of her high heels fading as she carried her computer bag and disappeared into the crowd, leaving only a shrinking silhouette behind. 。He shook his head and smiled wryly. He really was acting like an old father right now, constantly worried about her. Afraid she'd twist her ankle in those high heels, afraid she wouldn't look both ways before crossing the street... there was just no end to his worries. 。。Driving back to Zhuoyuan Technology, I saw Wen Jian discussing problems with the engineers in the research and development room. All the smiles disappeared. 。"Wen Jian!" he called her name expressionlessly at the entrance of the laboratory, then walked towards his office. 。Wen Jian briefed the engineers for a few moments, took off his glasses and followed him to his office. 。The atmosphere was tense. During breakfast, the two of them refrained from communicating with each other due to Wen Lan and Shu Tinglan's presence. They kept all their unspoken words bottled up. 。I asked Cui Jie to buy you a ticket, now I'm going back to headquarters. 。He was uncompromising and left no room for negotiation. 。

"An, you have no right to interfere with my freedom" 。"Wen Jian went all out, this morning looking at his attitude, he was completely defending Shu Tinglan." 。She found herself both ridiculous and pathetic. After all these years, from high school to university to starting a business together, she had silently supported him, giving everything she had for him. Yet this was the outcome. She felt completely brokenhearted, utterly indifferent. 。Zuo Yu'an looked at her with cold eyes, no longer showing the friendliness he once had towards a friend. His gaze and every movement were icy cold. 。Wen Jian continued, "

“I thought you were different from other men. You’ve always been rational, career-driven, and never succumbed to romance. But now you’re suppressing me, marginalizing me within the company, trying to freeze me out at the American headquarters forever. Do you have any old feelings left An, I’m a person, not a tool.” >>> 。Zuo Yu'an kept looking at her, waiting for her to finish all her words before he spoke. "If I wasn't rational enough, didn't prioritize my career, or didn't cherish our past feelings, Wen Jian, the place you're staying now would be prison." 。"

A very calm sentence, the warm and simple face instantly turned pale" 。"What does that mean" she asked. 。You know what's in your heart. 。Wen Jian, thinking back to our friendship, the things you've done, I've kept them hidden for you, not even telling Wang Yan. 。But you are no longer suitable to manage the technology department. 。" Wen Jian's brain was blank, still struggling to survive: "I don't understand what you mean" 。“You still want to understand what What did you set up in Shu Tinglan’s smart home system If I hadn’t found out early, if anything had happened to Shu Tinglan at all, your death wouldn’t even be enough to atone for your sins!” 。"

Wen Jian was dejected.

"I didn't, I didn't" 。“Wen Jian, I trained you myself. Your skills and professional knowledge were all taught by me. Do you think you can fool me”Actually, Zhuo Yu'an was stopped by Wang Yan at the time and didn't enter the customer's backend database to check. Originally, he was just guessing, but later, he disconnected all of Shu Tinglan's smart devices from the network and used them in single mode. After that, Shu Tinglan's condition improved a lot. 。Before that, for two days, he purposely left her home alone to sleep, and she didn't show any abnormalities. 。She felt it was the result of seeing a psychiatrist, but he was certain it was because he had turned off his smart devices. 。Only Wen Jian has the capability to tamper with the system. 。After he said all that, his brain buzzed. This wasn't just about Shu Tinglan's mental and emotional well-being; it also involved the safety and trust of Zhuo Yuan Technology's users. 。If word got out that Zhuoyuan Technology's CTO could freely install hypnotic tools in clients' systems, the fallout would be catastrophic. 。Wenjian doing such a thing was completely beyond his expectations. 。he lead actress because they are afraid of unexpected situations. It's just how realistic society is.After finishing the costume drama with the lead female role, she was almost idle.The agent was afra...
