Chapter 441: Chapter 441 Old Lovers Meet

Because of his leg, most of the female colleagues at the unit used to be wary of him, but now that Lu Yichen’s leg had healed, many had started to take an interest in him. It wasn’t long before someone approached him.

One day, not long after he arrived at the unit, Auntie Cao from the household registration department came looking for him, "Little Lu, are you busy?"

"Auntie Cao, what brings you here?"

"Little Lu, you’re not young anymore; it’s time to settle down. How about I introduce someone to you?"

As soon as Lu Yichen heard Auntie Cao’s intention, he said, "Auntie Cao, there’s no need for you to trouble yourself with this. I already have someone in my heart, though I haven’t won her over yet. But still, thank you."

Auntie Cao laughed, "Oh, is that so? That’s a pity, then. Alright, Little Lu, you’d better put in some extra effort. We’re all looking forward to celebrating your wedding."

Lu Yichen smiled, "Alright, you’ll be the first to know if there’s any news."

At lunchtime, when he was about to leave for break, a girl in charge of internal affairs ran up to him, "Comrade Lu, I have a few words I’d like to say to you."

Lu Yichen said, "Just speak your mind."

The girl glanced at the bustling doorway and said, "Comrade Lu, can we change the location?"

Lu Yichen’s face turned cold instantly, "Are you suggesting we talk about something secretive? Sorry, then I can’t agree to change locations. If something happens, I’m afraid it won’t look good."

Seeing that Lu Yichen was unmoved, the girl blushed and said, "I admire Comrade Lu and would like to date you. What do you think?"

Lu Yichen replied, "Sorry, but I have someone I like. I’ll be leaving now if you’ll excuse me."

Having said that, he turned and walked away, leaving those hiding and eavesdropping by the corner of the gate exchanging glances. When did Brother Lu start liking someone?

Latter on, people in the bureau started gossiping that Lu Yichen had someone he liked, yet there was one person who was somewhat skeptical, thinking that Lu Yichen was using it as an excuse to fend off match-making attempts.

That person was none other than Cai Yajing, the precious daughter of the deputy director. When Lu Yichen had just transferred to the bureau, she had noticed him, but his leg had prevented her from making a move, though she’d never put it out of her mind.

Now she insisted on having her father play matchmaker, refusing to listen to any objections. Deputy Director Cai Xinmin called Lu Yichen into his office, "Little Lu, how old are you this year?"

Lu Yichen answered, "Twenty-four."

Deputy Director Cai smiled as he poured a cup of water, "That’s not young; it’s time you found yourself a partner."

Lu Yichen understood Deputy Director Cai’s purpose as soon as he heard these words, "I have someone I like; it’s just that she’s still in school, so I’m waiting for her to grow up."

Deputy Director Cai hadn’t expected Lu Yichen to respond like that, "Marriage isn’t child’s play. It’s better to find someone of a similar age, otherwise you won’t have much in common."

Lu Yichen smiled, "Deputy Director Cai, if there’s nothing else, I have quite a bit of official business to take care of. Actually, being young is quite alright. As long as I like her, that’s all that matters. I’ll just spoil her."

These words made Deputy Director Cai somewhat embarrassed. He felt he was meddling too much and wouldn’t have if it weren’t for his daughter hounding him until he could no longer stand it.

Lu Yichen stood up, "Deputy Director Cai, I’ll take my leave now."

Cai Xinmin had no choice; Lu Yichen had someone he liked, so it wouldn’t be right to break them up. He waved his hand for Lu Yichen to leave.

In Capital City, Ning Xueling had just come out of a meeting at the bureau and looked up to see a man she hadn’t seen in a long while. Her heartbeat skipped, and her eyes reddened.

The man had also looked over and was stunned for a moment, "Xueling, is that you?"

Ning Xueling stood frozen on the spot. They had not seen each other for twenty-five years, and she had thought they might never meet again in this lifetime. Yet, unexpectedly, they had run into each other here.

The man was Wei Zixiong, Ning Xueling’s first love. Back then, the matriarch of the Wei family had looked down on the pampered Ning Xueling, forcing Wei Zixiong to marry Kong Danyang, a distant niece from his mother’s side of the family. In a fit of anger, Ning Xueling had agreed to marry Luo Haotian, who had been introduced to her by her family.

After a mishap within the Wei family, there were no further updates about them. Unexpectedly, Wei Zixiong had returned to Capital City.

The two found a teahouse and chatted for an entire afternoon, only then learning that Wei Zixiong’s wife, Kong Danyang, had passed away and that Wei Zixiong had suffered a great deal over the years.
