"Then I can finally wait for good news from you two."

"Don't tell her about this." Li Jingchen became serious.

"I absolutely won't tell you." Song Qingyi promised.

He wasn't so tactless. He had already mentioned the past, and how could he say that the proposal was a surprise? Besides, Zheng Yan's illness hadn't been cured yet, but Song Qingyi saw that Li Jingchen looked confident.

"If you don't know how to propose, I can help you plan it."

Li Jingchen raised his thin lips and shook his head slightly, "Thank you, but it's not necessary."

"That's right," Song Qingyi clinked glasses with Li Jingchen again, "You are no longer the same person you were back then, so you have to give Jiang Tong a grand proposal."

……

Jiang Tong's side.

Xu Miaomiao went to have dinner with Jiang Tong again. She had already planned to break up with Luo Yubai.

She is almost 30 years old and can't continue to waste time on a man with no future in sight. Although falling in love is beautiful, Xu Miaomiao longs to be cherished deep down.

"I plan to tell him on the winter solstice."

Jiang Tong looked at the calendar on her phone. Next week?

Xu Miaomiao nodded. "Xiaobai and I were planning to go on a trip during Christmas, but now we don't have to go."

Actually, it’s still a bit sad.

Xu Miaomiao lowered her head with a lonely look in her eyes.

Jiang Tong thought for a moment and said, "If you have made up your mind, follow your heart."

She didn't know what to say. Whether to persuade them to break up or to reconcile, Xu Miaomiao had already made up her mind.

"Yeah, a short pain is worse than a long one. You eat first, I'll go to the bathroom."

Jiang Tong stared at Xu Miaomiao's back. It is better to suffer a short pain than a long one. Jiang Tong understood this truth better than anyone else.

Her phone vibrated twice. It was a news link sent by her son.

Jiang Mianyang said that Li Zi’s father has returned to China and attended a speech today. He looked very handsome.

Jiang Mingyang is just like a star's sidekick. No matter what activities Li Jingchen participates in, as long as there is news about it, he knows about it.

After hearing what her son said, Jiang Tong couldn't control her hands and curiosity, so she opened it and took a look.

Jiang Tong saw that Li Jingchen went back to his alma mater to attend an annual financial academic conference.

It turns out he is in Beijing now.

Seeing him wearing a black suit, looking calm and well-dressed, the incandescent light shining on his broad shoulders, his deep brows and eyes also reflected a little more ripples.

Jiang Tong couldn't help but look at it a few more times.

I heard him tell the younger students present that there will always be opportunities and opportunities. Times create heroes and heroes create times. There are outstanding people in every era.

He also said that he was not a very outstanding person, and he would make mistakes and get confused.

He said that we should not regard him as a target, because everyone present here believes that it is possible to surpass his current achievements. No matter what achievements we make, we must not forget our original intention.

"Tongtong, what are you looking at?" Xu Miaomiao came out of the bathroom and patted Jiang Tong on the shoulder.

"Nothing, just watching some videos." Jiang Tong quickly turned off the screen and put away her phone.

"Are you looking at Li Jingchen? I seemed to see his face just now."

"Mian Yang sent it to me. He went to Beijing to attend the annual meeting of his alma mater. I took a quick look at it."

Jiang Tong took a sip of coffee and lowered her head, with a hint of loneliness between her brows.

Xu Miaomiao really didn't want to see Jiang Tong like this.

She is Jiang Tong... the most beautiful, popular, generous, and innocent rich second-generation girl in their department.

"Tongtong, don't forget that you married Li Jingchen before. You were in a high position while he was in a low position. Now he is indeed rich and in a high position. You are not bad either. You are not without money. How are you worse than him?"

"Don't be so humble, okay? If he doesn't want to remarry you, then forget it. Who cares?"

"It wasn't your fault that we got divorced. You didn't do anything to let him down. It was his mother who treated you like that. Who could bear that? Now that his mother is sick, is it all written off? Do you still want you to talk about remarrying? Why?"

"Miaomiao, don't get excited. I'm really fine." Jiang Tong handed Xu Miaomiao a glass of water.

"I can't help but get excited," Xu Miaomiao clenched her hands, her eyes reddening, "Zheng Hong treated me like that, I couldn't stand it even before we got married. Now I understand how difficult it is for you in your marriage."

Marriage is a besieged city. Those who enter want to get out, and those who leave want to get in.

What's more, Zheng Yan and Zheng Hong, two difficult women, put Jiang Tong and Xu Miaomiao in trouble.

"Just live your own life now and don't bother with him. You even went to cook for his mother before. You're so stupid. The more you do this, the more his mother will disrespect you after she recovers from her illness. She'll just bully you."

"I know."

Jiang Tong sighed. She had already made it very clear to Li Jingchen last time.

She just looked at him twice.

"Don't watch any videos or news about him. You can't continue like this, Tongtong. You have to cheer up, stay single, raise your kids, and work on your career. Then you can marry a better man."

"It is true that you can start a business."

Jiang Tong came back to her senses and thought that this year was about to pass by unknowingly, and her birthday was approaching, so she had to make some good plans for herself.

……

After Li Jingchen attended the annual meeting, he had dinner at the China World Trade Center with a CEO with whom he had a good relationship.

Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, the night view of Liangma River comes into view. The capital city is a bit chilly at night. With the temperature outside below zero, a few snowflakes are floating in the sky.

"Boss Li, have a bowl of ginger soup to warm yourself up."

The steaming warm soup contains red dates and wolfberries, and the rich aroma of ginger is fragrant.

Li Jingchen stared at the ginger soup in a daze.

"What's wrong, Mr. Li? You don't like the taste of ginger?"

"No," Li Jingchen drank a sip of ginger soup, and the warm ginger soup immediately warmed his heart and lungs.

“I really like the taste of ginger.”

The other person smiled, not knowing why there was a sudden flash of tenderness in Li Jingchen's eyes.

"Mr. Li," the other party got back to the point.

"In fact, your investment in AS Pharmaceutical Research Laboratory is a bit risky. If you want to make a long-term investment and commercialize the research results, I'm afraid... there will be risks."

“I have no intention of profiting from this.”

Li Jingchen stared at the night view outside the window with deep eyes.

"This is just a desperate move on my own behalf. I have already made all the best plans. If there are any consequences during the process, I will bear them myself."

Of course, the best outcome would be that the new drug research is successful and Zheng Yan's disease is cured, so he can remarry Jiang Tong without any burden.

By that time, Yuan Gang's body must have almost recovered...

Just like Song Qingyi said, if they didn't remarry after this year, he was afraid that her heart would no longer be with him.
