Chapter 658: Lu Shaoxing

hat didn’t seem to work either. I'm just not cut out for it.”Then I truly understood, people have weaknesses. She lacks business acumen; if she really wanted to work hard and succeed in business, she...Dong Xin, in a well-fitted professional suit, walked calmly and confidently up the stairs.

"Do you know me" Meng Zheng was a little puzzled.

"Yes, I am Dong Xin, Mr. Lu's secretary."

"Well, thank you." Meng Zheng replied politely, still with grace and elegance.

Women's sixth sense is very accurate. Even if Dong Xin didn't say anything, sometimes a look could tell her a thing or two, especially since Meng Zheng was such a smart woman.

She was almost at Lu Shaohing's office, but suddenly she lost interest. She shouldn't have come today; there was nothing to talk about with this man. Her return to China was primarily to attend YaoYao's wedding. Today, she came proactively because she thought YaoYao made sense. She left too decisively back then and didn't give Lu Shaohing a chance to speak. That's why, over the years, he kept his anger bottled up with nowhere to release it, which is why he still couldn't let go.

He said at YaoYao's wedding that he wanted to have a good talk, although she knew the outcome wouldn't change. But considering their past love and for YaoYao's sake, she was willing to give him an outlet for his emotions.

Well, what's going on now

She had no intention of getting involved in any of his affairs, nor did she want any woman to see her as a rival.

Just as she was thinking, Lu Shaoheng's office arrived. Dong Xin knocked on the door, and a low voice, characteristic of a mature man, came from inside: Come in!

When he looked up and saw his ex-wife standing in the doorway, he was first stunned, then surprised. He hurriedly stood up from his desk. At this age, in front of her, he felt a little at a loss.

Meng Zheng nodded at him and then walked straight to the guest sofa in his office and sat down.

Beside her, Dong Xin asked her what she wanted to drink

"That's fine, thank you."

Lu Shaoxing also sat opposite the sofa. He had thousands of words he wanted to say, but at this moment, he suddenly didn't know where to begin.

Meng Zheng had nothing more to say. She sat there and took a sip of the coffee Dong Xin had made for her, sincerely praising it: "Thank you, this is very good."

Dong Xin smiled and went out to the secretary's office.

Lu Shaohang couldn't help but stare at his ex-wife. Time had treated her well, giving her a more composed and elegant demeanor. The confidence in her every gesture shone like a beam of light, making everyone around her seem pale in comparison.

She is composed and graceful, yet also passionate and unrestrained.

Lu Shaoxing had looked at the Moments Yao Yao posted on her phone. Her life was colorful and rich. She went diving, surfing, skiing, took her helicopter license test, and even dated a blonde-haired blue-eyed boyfriend. She bloomed like a rose, vibrant and passionate.

So he was still attracted to her, still heartbroken, wanting her back in his life.

Meng Zheng's attitude is generous: "Isn't there something to say"

Lu Shaoxing: “I think you know what I want to say. Zhengzheng, what do I have to do for you to come back”

Meng Zheng shook his head and smiled: "You know what I'm most grateful for these past few years It's that I chose to divorce back then."

Lu Shaoxing: "It was my fault back then, but it was all just for show. I never truly fell for anyone. The only person I've ever loved in my life is you."

"Xiao Xing, no matter what age we reach, we all have the right to love. But love isn't everything, is it Without me, you can still live a fulfilling life, and that's great. Your obsession with me is only because I left too decisively back then. If I had fought with you, gone hysterical, clung on endlessly, draining our feelings away, then you would have..."

He will want to get rid of me as soon as possible and will no longer have any obsession.

Lu Shaoxing couldn't imagine her making a fuss: "If you were willing to make a scene, it would be fine."

"To be honest, I wasn't just avoiding making a scene. Part of it was that I didn't want Yao Yao to see our vulnerabilities. Another part was that I wanted our relationship to stay in the most beautiful memories. Frankly, when I first divorced and moved abroad, I really hated it and was heartbroken. It took me half a year to recover. I even saw a therapist for a year before I truly accepted that we were separated." Meng Zheng is human too, with feelings. He had truly invested in a relationship, and it's impossible to just forget about it.

Lu Shaoxing was stunned. He thought she was free-spirited and wouldn't be hurt.

“I tell you this because I want you to let go of your resentment. I’m not as carefree as I appear. Our divorce didn't just hurt you; it hurt me too. You probably never truly loved me, but rather felt a sense of unwillingness to accept the situation. True love can be seen in my older brother. Regardless of whether his wife is alive or not, he has always been faithful. Or look at younger generations like Gu Ruandong and Lu Kuo – they are at least wholeheartedly devoted when they love someone.”

Meng Zheng never thought that at his age, he would still have to guide his ex-husband about love. Shouldn't they just each go their separate ways freely

Lu Shaoxing's mind was in a mess. He knew he wasn't as his ex-wife described, that it wasn't unwillingness or resentment, but that he was truly attracted to her. But at this moment, he understood one thing more clearly: his ex-wife was genuinely letting go of him and had no possibility of returning to his side when she could speak so openly and honestly to her.

I feel a bit relieved, but mostly I feel reluctant to let go.

"Can I have one last hug"

Meng Zheng smiled: "No need for a hug, just a handshake."

"Let's go."

She extended her right hand to him openly, and Lu Shaoxing also extended his right hand to shake hers.

Actually, Meng Zheng wanted to say that Dong, the secretary outside, was pretty good, but he held back in the end. Some people may live a long life, but they're still pathetic when it comes to love. He hasn't figured it out himself, so there's no point for outsiders to say anything.

She didn't stay at Yaoyao's home after coming to Senzhou, not wanting to disturb the newlyweds. She stayed at a five-star hotel nearby. On the eve of her departure, Yaoyao specially came to the hotel to sleep with her, sent by Gu Ruandong personally.

It had been years since the mother and daughter had been this close. Yaoyao snuggled up to her mother and asked, "Mom, do you have any feelings for Dad at all"

Meng Zheng: “To say there’s no emotion at all is a lie, but we are not a good match. It’s not just your father's issue, your mother has issues too. We are both self-centered and unable to make any changes for each other. So, Yaoyao, sometimes in relationships, your mother envies you.”

"Envy me"

"Well, you are braver than your mother, loving more boldly and passionately. You are also luckier than your mother, to have encountered Gu Ruan Dong who thinks what you think and cares for you as you need."

"I wouldn't deny it: he is really great, much better than the partner I imagined before."

Whenever someone mentions Gu Ruandong, warmth and love surge through her heart. It's like her life has been infused with a nutrient solution that continuously generates warmth, nourishing her every moment.

"Yayay."

"Hmm"

"Mom's only requirement for you before was to be happy and joyful. Now she wants to add one more: love yourself even as you love others."

"I know, he has his career, and I have mine. Our love is what makes our lives..."

"More depth and power, but not the whole story."

"Yao Yao has really grown up."

Meng Zheng finally felt at ease. him from causing a scene and embarrassing them at the emergency room.Looking around, everyone was worse off than her. There were also a few with high fevers who had come to the hospital, and they wer...
