"What a coincidence running into each other! It’s rare to see Lan Li alone with a girl; I thought Lan Li was dedicated to spending his whole life with the military!" Ding Long said, smiling at the girl across from Lan Li, "Lan Li is known as a great guy in the capital, if you et him, make sure to grab the opportunity!"
"Mr. Ding, you’re joking. This is my first ti eting Lan Li." The girl evidently also knew Ding Long and naturally recognized Ding Jinshi beside Ding Long, then stood up, "Is this the future Mrs. Ding? Mrs. Ding is much prettier than in the newspapers. I heard your wedding is less than a month away. Congratulations to you both!"
"Thank you!" Ding Long accepted the girl’s congratulations generously. Honestly, he quite liked this girl dining with Lan Li; her words were pleasant to hear.
Ding Long placed the wedding invitation he had hastily written earlier in front of Lan Li, saying, "Since we ran into each other here, Jinshi and I might as well deliver the invitation to you in person. Make sure to attend our wedding when the ti cos, and feel free to bring her along."
The ’her’ Ding Long referred to was the girl dining with Lan Li. Watching Lan Li crossing his fingers with his gaze fixed on the red invitation card, his expression growing colder, Ding Long felt increasingly satisfied inside.
The girl whom Lan Li disregarded, Ding Long cherished dearly in his heart.
After a while, Lan Li finally withdrew his gaze from the invitation, the na beside Ding Long’s, once belonged to him.
Groom, Ding Long; Bride, Ding Jinshi.
But now, none of this had anything to do with him anymore.
Lan Li slowly raised his eyes to look at Ding Jinshi, who had been standing beside Ding Long. Observing her slightly fuller face, he recalled what his comrades in the military ntioned, that after Ding Jinshi and Ding Long got engaged, they had been living together. Ding Long even learned to cook to take care of Ding Jinshi, who appeared well cared for, with a rosy complexion.
Lan Li’s gaze slowly shifted downwards, stopping on the hands Ding Long and Ding Jinshi were holding. This scene pricked his heart slightly.
The Ding Jinshi who used to blush just from holding hands with him, could now walk down the street holding hands with Ding Long without any change in expression?
Her relationship with Ding Long really seed to be as inseparable as people said.
"Congratulations." This was the only thing Lan Li said to Ding Long and Ding Jinshi, then he lowered his head, remaining silent.
"Thank you." Ding Long responded with a smile, then returned to his seat with Ding Jinshi.
Initially, after agitating Lan Li, Ding Long felt extrely pleased.
But upon seeing Ding Jinshi’s face void of any expression, Ding Long began to regret doing sothing so childish.
"Shall we eat sowhere else?" Ding Long asked quietly.
"No need." Ding Jinshi shook her head, smiling at Ding Long, "I’m fine. After the engagent party, I had already let go. It’s just that suddenly running into him stirred up so feelings, but now, I’ve realized that letting soone go isn’t as hard as it seems. At least I really feel I have, because seeing him now, this part of doesn’t ache anymore."
Ding Jinshi pointed to her chest with a faint smile, "We’ve been apart for so many years, each with our own lives. His congratulations were deserved. In fact, I should have congratulated him earlier too."
