Lan Lan felt that Yu Ran's understanding of Liang Yufeng was too superficial. A man like him would never have a peaceful breakup; the dog man was incredibly petty.
Since Yu Ran had already guessed their relationship, Lan Lan didn't hide the past from her. She explained her relationship with Liang Yufeng during college. Yu Ran looked surprised, "What, you and Xiao Liang were together in college?"
"During freshman year," Lan Lan said, "We broke up later. I initiated it. Men, you know, their pride was wounded, and they hold grudges."
"Then why did you break up?" Yu Ran was curious about the reason. Liang Yufeng was so easy to get along with; he must have treated Lan Lan extremely well back then. Their relationship couldn't have had major problems.
"I didn't like him anymore." Lan Lan thought Yu Ran's question was unnecessary. Didn't Ms. Yu understand her attitude in relationships? She was someone who needed novelty, and her relationships never lasted long. But if she went by the timeline she mentioned, wouldn't Liang Yufeng have liked her for a long time?
Such a devoted person encountering Lan Lan was like Mars colliding with Earth.
"If you don't like Xiao Liang, then don't provoke him," Yu Ran said, making a request about Lan Lan's feelings for the first time. "Otherwise, you will definitely hurt him."
Liang Yufeng clearly appeared to be someone who took relationships very seriously. He probably didn't think their relationship was merely superficial like Lan Lan did, otherwise, he wouldn't have come to meet her and Lan Zhong.
Lan Lan replied with an "Mm." She agreed with Yu Ran. She and Liang Yufeng were not the same kind of people. She had wanted to end it long ago, but now that they had signed an agreement...
It was difficult to tell Yu Ran about the agreement, and also about Liang Yufeng's fiancée. If Yu Ran found out, her good impression of Liang Yufeng would likely be shattered.
Therefore, Lan Lan didn't say anything more. She agreed with Yu Ran to break up with Liang Yufeng as soon as possible. Anyway, Yu Ran and Lan Zhong would be returning to their hometown soon, and they wouldn't visit Nanjiang often. As long as they didn't let them meet Liang Yufeng again in the future, it would be fine.
Yu Ran and Lan Zhong stayed in Nanjiang City for two days before departing. Lan Lan's annual leave also ended. After resting for over a month, she had become quite lazy. When she returned to work, it took her half a morning to get back into her work.
Lan Lan bought gifts for her close colleagues and superiors. After giving them out, she won everyone's favor. When Liang Yufeng came to Xinhe for a meeting, he happened to overhear some Xinhe colleagues discussing the gifts Lan Lan had given.
"General Manager Lan is so thoughtful. She actually bought me black tea. I loved it the most when I was studying in London. I can't believe she still remembers."
"I casually mentioned once that I liked handmade soap, and she actually brought me some!"
"No wonder General Manager Lan is General Manager Lan, and we are still ordinary employees. This is the difference."
Liang Yufeng glanced at those colleagues a few more times. He recognized them as colleagues who were usually close to Lan Lan. She had always been generous, so buying gifts wasn't surprising. But to remember each person's preferences so accurately...
He felt a strange sense of jealousy. Since she returned from her trip, she hadn't mentioned any gifts to him, even though she had said she would give him a gift before she left.
The day he went to deliver her car, he had already started looking forward to it. However, until he finished his meal and left, and even today, Lan Lan hadn't mentioned it.
After Liang Yufeng finished his meeting, he went to Manager Liu's office and saw the gift Lan Lan had given him: a football club jersey and memorabilia. She truly remembered everyone's preferences so clearly...
Liang Yufeng became even more jealous. As he left Manager Liu's office, he happened to run into Lan Lan. Upon seeing him, Lan Lan instinctively smiled and greeted him. However, Liang Yufeng merely glanced at her indifferently and then walked past her.
Lan Lan felt it was inexplicable but didn't ask anything. Liang Yufeng's temper was so peculiar these days, getting angry for no reason, not for the first time.
Lan Lan didn't dwell on it and didn't consider it an argument. After work on Friday, she went to Liang Yufeng's place, bringing the gift for him.
The last time Liang Yufeng went to deliver the car keys, she hadn't finished organizing the items, and the timing wasn't right, so she didn't give him the gift. Later, it was a workday, and she couldn't find time. Lan Lan had originally planned to give it to him when she stayed over at his place, and also to see him try it on to satisfy her visual desire.
When Lan Lan arrived at Liang Yufeng's villa, he hadn't returned yet. She went to the restaurant to find some fruit to eat while waiting for him.
About half an hour later, Liang Yufeng finally returned. The moment he entered the door, he saw Lan Lan sitting on the sofa eating strawberries. He immediately remembered the "gift incident," and Liang Yufeng's expression gradually turned unpleasant. He ignored her and went to change his slippers.
"Are you in a bad mood?" Lan Lan sensed his emotions. "Who upset you? Is work not going smoothly?"
Liang Yufeng didn't reply. He expressionlessly put on his slippers. He was always like this, and Lan Lan had gotten used to it. "Mr. Liang, would you do me the honor of coming over here for a moment."
She smiled and beckoned to him. Liang Yufeng subconsciously walked towards her. After taking a step, he realized he had been manipulated by her senses again!
Facing her, he always lost his head. No matter how many emotions he had, with a simple beckoning gesture from her, he would forget himself and run towards her.
Regret was useless. As he approached, Lan Lan grabbed his wrist. Distracted, she pulled him forcefully onto the sofa.
Liang Yufeng sat down. When his attention returned, he saw the item in her hand, a delicate bag, which seemed to contain a box.
"This is for you." Lan Lan handed the item to him and urged, "Open it and see."
A gift? Liang Yufeng's heart suddenly trembled, but his surface remained calm, appearing uninterested in her gift. He simply asked indifferently, "What is it?"
"You'll know when you open it! Hurry and unwrap it, it suits you very well." Lan Lan was eagerly anticipating seeing him in the suit.
Under Lan Lan's expectant gaze, Liang Yufeng opened the box and saw the suit and tie inside. The suit was clearly custom-made. Beside it was a matching tie, and a leather wallet, which also seemed to be handmade.
Liang Yufeng hadn't expected Lan Lan to give him such a gift.
"How is it, do you like it?" Lan Lan introduced to Liang Yufeng, "The suit and wallet are handmade by a master craftsman from a famous custom shop in London. It was almost too late to make it, but this suit happened to be your size. My taste is good, right?"
Size?
Liang Yufeng's focus suddenly shifted. "You know my size?" He shouldn't have mentioned such things to her.
