Chapter 308: Chapter 308: Chance Encounter with Li Hengze
Although he was still chubby, he actually lost a lot of weight compared to the last ti I saw him, he weighed about 200 pounds last ti, now he should be only 180 pounds.
“You are Li…” Su ixi didn’t quite rember his na, as Xi Wanfen always referred to him as “my wronged brother-in-law” when she talked about him.
“I am Li Hengze.”
Li Hengze was very enthusiastic, and he pointed to a spot by the window, saying: “I’m having dinner with two friends, why not join us? They love making new friends.”
Just then, those two friends were also looking at them, and when Gu Wei and Su ixi turned to look at them, they waved over, apparently welcoming them to co over.
Both of them were n, Su ixi glanced at Gu Wei to seek his opinion, Gu Wei didn’t mind.
Traveling on vacation, after all, is about relaxing and eting new people.
Li Hengze called the waiter over to add two more chairs, they had just sat down not long ago, and not all dishes were served yet.
Then Li Hengze ordered another five or six dishes, while Su ixi kept saying, “Don’t order too much, we might not finish it all.”
Li Hengze laughed, “You might not be able to eat it, but Gu Wei should be able to, he’s so tall, he looks like he can eat for five.”
Gu Wei let out a light laugh, not taking Li Hengze’s words as offensive, but rather finding him straightforward and endearing.
Li Hengze went on to introduce them, “These two friends have been with here for a week, this one is Han Fengmao, and this one is Dong Xiangming.”
Dong Xiangming wore glasses, looking very gentle, and according to Li Hengze, he is a psychologist.
Han Fengmao is a lawyer, the two had been classmates who played together with Li Hengze since elentary school, not as wealthy as Li’s family, but also from elite families.
Then Li Hengze introduced his two friends to Su ixi and Gu Wei.
Hearing that Gu Wei had just changed his career, Han Fengmao asked, “So, do you plan to stay in Yun City?”
Gu Wei nodded, “Yes, at the S Commission.”
“S Commission? My elder uncle is also at the S Commission!” Han Fengmao said.
As they chatted, they discovered that everyone’s circle seed to have mutual acquaintances.
Gu Wei also knew Han Fengmao’s uncle, and the two were almost colleagues.
Now Han Fengmao greatly admired Gu Wei, “My uncle only reached that position at 50 years old, you’ve gotten there while in your 30s, truly a rare talent.”
Dong Xiangming seed to rember sothing, he quickly asked Li Hengze: “Hengze, isn’t Gu Wei the… real son-in-law you told us about?”
Li Hengze, always straight-forward, said, “Yes, that’s him. He has made many contributions, which is why he got appointed to that position imdiately after transferring careers.”
After this, the admiration Li Hengze and his two friends had for Gu Wei was beyond asure.
They were rely accompanying Li Hengze on a vacation. The reason Li Hengze needed a vacation, naturally, was due to the matters with Xi Wanlin, who had already signed the divorce agreent, and obtained the divorce certificate.
Then they looked at Su ixi again.
Su ixi smiled at them involuntarily. Unlike Xi Wanlin’s aloofness, she was completely down-to-earth.
For instance, just now, right after Li Hengze invited her, she ca over to join their dinner, whereas Li Hengze and Xi Wanlin never had a al with them from when they dated till they divorced.
At this mont, the dishes were served, and they chatted while eating.
The five of them were of similar ages and shared mutual acquaintances, enjoying a congenial conversation. It turned out they also knew Qiu Shuai, who was much younger than them, only an acquaintance, not close, but Qiu Shuai’s sister was impressive, very capable in business; she developed all the holiday resorts in this area.
After finishing the al and their chat, Su ixi thought of Chen izhi, she couldn’t help but turn to Dong Xiangming, the psychologist, and asked, “Mr. Dong…”
“Just call Xiangming, no need to be so polite,” Dong Xiangming said with a smile.
Su ixi then said, “I’d like to talk to you privately later for a bit. I have a psychological issue I’d like to consult with you about. It’s not about , but a girl I recently t. She seems quite pitiable.”
So might think Su ixi is a bleeding heart saint, and since she only had a fleeting encounter with Chen iting, why would she want to help her?
But this world is a human world, and there should be more than just indifference between people. If one has the capability, why not lend a helping hand?
Many entrepreneurs engage in a lot of charity to give back to society once they have achieved success, thus accumulating good deeds for themselves. Su ixi’s capabilities naturally can’t compare to those of entrepreneurs, but she has no financial worries right now; no elders to care for at the mont, and no children to look after, so she helps as much as she can.
Gu Wei understood Su ixi very well.
His girl, who always discerns right from wrong and is brave.
…
While Su ixi was outside the restaurant on the terrace talking to Dong Xiangming about Chen iting, Gu Wei was discussing interesting places nearby with Li Hengze and Han Fengmao.
Li Hengze, who often visited, knew the good spots and highly recomnded taking a boat ride on Er Hai, enjoying fresh flower cakes and drinking Pu’er Tea while on board.
Li Hengze was enthusiastic; having recomnded it, he offered full-package service. He imdiately contacted the private yacht they had used two days before, and even fought with Gu Wei over who would pay, but Gu Wei insisted on paying himself, otherwise he wouldn’t accept the help, and Li Hengze relented.
After Gu Wei and the others finished their discussion, Su ixi also finished hers.
Dong Xiangming added Chen iting on WeChat, planning to find her for a chat once he got back to Yun City. He usually charges by the hour, but because Su ixi asked, he gave a fifty percent discount. Su ixi asked him to accept a symbolic amount, and she would pay the rest.
…
After the al, Su ixi and Gu Wei went to the seaside to take photos and rented bicycles to ride around the sea.
When they got tired, they stopped to take pictures.
Because they added Li Hengze and others on WeChat, they could see Li Hengze’s social feed.
Li Hengze loved to post everything on his social feed, no matter how trivial.
Therefore, Su ixi knew they had returned to Yun City that night.
Li Hengze captioned his post: “Thankful for two good friends who ca out to play with , I’m much better now, my family can rest assured, I will strive hard moving forward.”
He had posted on his feed a week earlier: “What’s yours won’t go away, what’s not yours can’t be held on to even if you try.”
Perhaps he had already removed Xi Wanlin, so he made such a post.
…
Yun City.
Xi Wanlin had already been lying at ho for several days, only taking calls from her company’s secretary and ignoring all other calls, including from Lu Lei.
The child in her womb was still not aborted, and she was still in a quandary.
What if it’s Li Hengze’s child? As long as it’s from the Li Family bloodline, there should be a share for it, right?
But what if it’s Lu Lei’s?
Just then, the doorbell rang. Thinking it was the delivery she expected, she went to open the door.
But when she opened the door, the person outside was Lu Lei.
