I'm such a lovesick person.

Chapter 526

Zheng Qian was a year older than him and Wei Lin. She liked to mingle in various clubs and student unions and was enthusiastic about many campus activities.

Upon graduation, Zheng Qian was an important member of the student union, which also secured her a high-paying local job.

Wen Jinlong had always known that Zheng Qian valued her partner's family background highly when she was dating, while Wei Lin's family was already quite well-off during his student days.

In addition, Wei Lin was tall, handsome, and eloquent, and Teacher Wang was a senior professor at Linjiang University. With his matchmaking, the two quickly became very close.

However, their good fortune didn't last long. Zheng Qian, who was a year ahead of them, soon graduated and entered society with a youthful and beautiful demeanor.

Not long after, she and Wei Lin broke up, and Wen Jinlong still doesn't know who broke up with him first.

After a while, Zheng Qian got married early. Her husband's family was more well-off than Wei Lin's, but he was only seven or eight years older than Zheng Qian.

Now, Zheng Qian has a lovely little girl, and it seems that she and her boyfriend have parted ways.

"Zheng Qian must have gotten divorced. She learned from me that Wei Lin had also gotten divorced, which is why she inquired about Wei Lin's situation."

After thinking it over for a while, Wen Jinlong gave up the idea of ​​informing Zheng Qian. He then searched on the review website for a while and finally decided on a lakeside restaurant.

"Let's book a small private room; it'll show we're serious."

He immediately called the restaurant, saying he wanted a small private room for three or four people, but the restaurant told him that there was a minimum charge of 300 yuan per person for the small private room.

"300 it is! Reserve the private room for me, I'm coming right now!"

Wen Jinlong gritted his teeth, immediately found a decent-looking set of clothes, got on his electric scooter, and headed straight for the restaurant.

……

A quarter of an hour later.

The dark-skinned and thin Wen Jinlong arrived at the restaurant, confirmed the private room with the waiter again, and then called Wei Lin, saying with a smile, "I'm at the restaurant entrance, have you arrived yet?"

Wei Lin: "We live nearby, it only takes five or six minutes to get there!"

Wen Jinlong: "Hurry up, I'm waiting!"

It was lunchtime, and vehicles were constantly entering the parking lot at the entrance, including both local and out-of-town license plates.

Wen Jinlong secretly watched each car that came in.

His eyes darted around, noticing that there were fewer and fewer parking spaces in front of the restaurant, and he wondered if he should personally reserve a parking space for Wei Lin.

Just as he was hesitating, Wei Lin's loud voice rang out: "Gold!"

Wen Jinlong, who was still searching for an empty parking space, looked in the direction of the sound and saw the incredibly impressive Cullinan. He immediately exclaimed, "Damn it! How come you're driving such a nice car? Wei Lin, is this your car? I remember at the last gathering, you were driving that big Toyota SUV!"

His face was full of surprise and excitement. He rushed to the car, touched it, and then laughed without any politeness, "Open the door and let me sit in! I've never ridden in a car like this before!"

Wei Lin smiled brightly, unlocked the car door at the parking lot entrance, and let Wen Jinlong in.

"This is Liu Yue, my girlfriend."

“Wen Jinlong was my best friend back in college.”

Wei Lin explained.

Liu Yue smiled demurely and reservedly, displaying the demeanor of a well-bred lady: "Hello, I often hear Wei Lin mention you."

"Hello, sister-in-law. I'm a few months older than Wei Lin. You can call me Brother Long."

Wen Jinlong grinned, grabbing and touching everything in the car without any restraint. He slapped his leg and shouted, "Wei Lin, you've struck it rich, haven't you?! If you really have, remember to give me a hand, I'm currently unemployed!"

Wei Lin laughed heartily: "To be honest, I'm actually doing quite well! If it weren't for your WeChat Moments, where you look like a complaining woman, I wouldn't have come to Liangxi City!"

Wen Jinlong was somewhat touched, but he said, "Let's park the car first, go inside and have a drink and a bite to eat. You probably can't find a designated driver for this car. Are you free to drink, kid?"

Wei Lin said, "I can drink. I'll have Liu Yue open it later!"

Liu Yue paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, I'll drive it. You keep an eye on it for me later."

Her family is well-off, and she has ridden in and driven many luxury cars, but she has never actually driven a Cullinan.

Seeing that Wei Lin didn't seem to care, she wasn't afraid of any problems and readily agreed.

Looking curiously at Wen Jinlong through the rearview mirror, she felt a little strange.

Wen Jinlong didn't shy away from admitting he was unemployed, and shamelessly asked Wei Lin for a hand. He also showed no jealousy or fear of Wei Lin's luxury car, which she found quite unbelievable.

She could tell at a glance that Wen Jinlong's conditions were not good, and he was probably much worse off than Wei Lin was now.

When she arrived, she was worried that Wei Lin might be too high-profile driving this car, and suggested that she call a car from the hotel, but Wei Lin laughed and said it was unnecessary.

"strangeness."

Liu Yue muttered to herself, somewhat unsure of the nature of their relationship and unable to see through it. As they parked, Wei Lin casually asked, "Jinzi, do you still remember Wang Xiaolong?"

"I remember him. He's from Shanghai and I think he works at a promising game company."

Wen Jinlong looked envious and sighed, "He used to be a rather quiet person, and our relationship was just so-so. Why did you suddenly bring him up?"

After parking the car, Wei Lin didn't get out immediately. Instead, he smiled and said, "I have shares in Wang Xiaolong's company. I'm currently the second-largest shareholder. Are you interested in going there?"

Wen Jinlong's major was also Computer Science and Technology, and he worked in a related field after graduation. As his best friend, Wei Lin also knew that he was quite skilled.

He was laid off by the company, and Wei Lin would only think that it was the company's problem and loss, not that he had any problems.

During their university years, Wen Jinlong was Wei Lin's best friend, while his relationship with Wang Xiaolong was merely casual.

Even now, Wei Lin still holds this view.

So when Wei Lin learned that he was in a bad situation, he immediately extended an olive branch, wanting him to go to Kunpeng Games.

Liangxi City is adjacent to Shanghai. It takes less than an hour by high-speed rail and about two hours by car.

Wen Jinlong is still unmarried, and Wei Lin sees no obstacle in him going to work in Shanghai, which is why he made this suggestion.

"Kunpeng Games? That company's been really popular lately!"

Wen Jinlong suddenly became excited and said in a low voice, "Wei Lin, are you kidding me? You're one of the owners of this company? That guy Wang Xiaolong, you didn't put him in here either, did you? When did you two become so close?!"

He is unmarried and childless, and he usually plays games after get off work. Since his industry is related to game companies, he knows about Kunpeng Games.

Wei Lin laughed and said, "Let's eat and talk!"

Wen Jinlong: "Okay!"

Before long, he led Wei Lin and the other man into a private room, ordered a few dishes with a budget of 300 yuan per person, and then asked for a dozen beers.

Before the cold dishes were even served, the two of them each drank a bottle of beer. Wei Lin then explained the reasons for his collaboration with Kunpeng Games.

"Since you have a part in the company, I'm willing to go and help you!"

Wen Jinlong quickly made a decision, rubbing his hands together with a hint of excitement, and said, "The game company is related to my previous work, so I can get started quickly. I parted ways with my previous company because I couldn't stand some people and didn't get along with a certain leader."

Wei Lin smiled calmly: "I know your personality and abilities all too well over the years, you don't need to explain to me."

Wen Jinlong laughed heartily and urged, "Come on, let's drink!"

As the dishes were served one after another, the two drank and chatted idly, reminiscing about their university days, occasionally letting out knowing, quirky laughs.

Liu Yue listened with a smile, and as soon as she saw that their glasses were empty, she got up to pour them more wine.

She seemed quite interested, occasionally asking about Wei Lin's activities during his university years, and expressing admiration and respect for many of the things Wei Lin had done.

Around 1:00 AM, when Wei Lin and the other person had just stopped eating and were only raising their glasses to drink, she got up and went to the restroom.

"Your new girlfriend is pretty good. If it were Liu Qi, she wouldn't have poured us drinks, and she'd have kept urging us to drink less," Wen Jinlong commented, then lowered his voice and asked, "Are you still in contact with Zheng Qian?"

Wei Lin shook his head: "We haven't been in contact since we broke up."

“I saw her the other day, and she asked me about you. Although she didn’t say much, I felt that she was probably divorced, just like you.” Wen Jinlong took a sip of his drink, glanced at the door, and seeing that Liu Yue hadn’t come over yet, said, “Do you want to see her?”

Wei Lin shook his head again, and said with a smile, "We parted amicably. We were both very calm when we broke up because I couldn't give her the kind of life she was looking for."

Wen Jinlong was silent for a moment, then said, "You can give it to me now."

Before Wei Lin could speak, he chuckled and said to himself, "But it really isn't necessary. You have money and a woman like Liu Yue, why go looking for a divorced woman with a child? What I mean is, if you have any unresolved issues, it wouldn't hurt to see her once."

Wei Lin thought about it carefully and said, "There's really nothing to worry about. Let's just not see each other."

Wen Jinlong: "Alright then."

Fifteen minutes later, seeing that he had almost finished eating and even the drinks he had ordered, he got up slightly unsteadily and went to the bar to pay the bill.

"Sir, your private room has already been paid for."

The baby-faced waitress, dressed in a black suit, said with a smile.

Wen Jinlong was taken aback, and was somewhat displeased: "Who paid the bill?"

The waitress thought for a moment and explained, "A very beautiful woman, the one in your private room. She just came out and asked us to settle the bill."

Upon hearing this, Wen Jinlong immediately realized that it wasn't Wei Lin, but Liu Yue who had done it under the pretense of going to the restroom.

Just then, Liu Yue gracefully walked out, smiled at Wen Jinlong, and said, "Brother Long, it's a pleasure to meet you! It doesn't matter who pays, please don't take it to heart."
