Yan Shaoqing was stunned for a few seconds when Shen Rou greeted him. He then nodded and said, “Mm. Rourou, long time no see. Are you alright?”
“I’m fine.” Shen Rou smiled. “We haven’t seen each other in a while. How have you been?”
Yan Shaoqing nodded. “Mm, I’m fine too.”
“Shaoqing, are we still friends?” Shen Rou suddenly asked.
Yan Shaoqing was stunned for a few seconds before nodding. “Of course.”
“That’s good. I was worried that you wouldn’t want to be friends with me anymore because of my relationship with Ah Si.” Shen Rou looked a little lonely. “Shaoqing, thank you. Thank you for being friends with me.”
“Uh…”
Yan Shaoqing suddenly felt sorry for her.
He was a very protective person.
He had known Shen Rou for so many years.
Although Yan Shaoqing knew that Mo Yesi and Shen Rou were on bad terms, he never thought of alienating her.
He didn’t contact Shen Rou much because they rarely did.
He didn’t deliberately alienate her.
Yan Shaoqing had nothing against Shen Rou.
He couldn’t understand why Mo Yesi and Gong Zeli would fall out with her.
They used to be so close.
“Of course we’re still friends.” Yan Shaoqing couldn’t bear to see women cry. He sighed and said, “Rourou, we’ve always been friends. I don’t know what happened between you and Ah Si. I tried to persuade him, but…
“You know Ah Si’s personality. He can’t be persuaded. I can’t do anything about it.”
Shen Rou’s expression stiffened.
Looking a little innocent and aggrieved, she bit her lip and said, “There was a misunderstanding between Ah Si and me. I thought that it would be fine to explain it clearly. I didn’t expect Ah Si to cut ties with me because of that.
“If I knew that the consequences would be so serious, I definitely wouldn’t have done that.
“Sigh, forget it. What’s the point of saying this now? Ah Si and I are already…” She seemed so upset that she didn’t want to continue.
“As for me and Zeli…” Shen Rou kept quiet for a few seconds before smiling bitterly. “We had some misunderstandings. Sigh. Shaoqing, the four of us grew up together and used to be best friends. I didn’t expect you to be the only one who doesn’t despise me and is willing to continue being friends with me.”
Yan Shaoqing looked a little embarrassed.
“Rourou, don’t say that…”
“Shaoqing, we’re still friends, right?” Shen Rou asked, looking straight at him.
“Of course.” Yan Shaoqing nodded.
“Then, can you do me a favor?” Shen Rou asked.
Yan Shaoqing was stunned. “Favor? What do you want me to help you with?”
“You just have to answer me one question.”
“Answer a question? What do you want to know?”
Shen Rou pursed her lips and kept quiet for a few seconds before saying, “Shaoqing, you’ve always had a good relationship with Zeli, and you’ve contacted him the most in private. So, no one knows more about Zeli than you.
“Do you know if there’s anyone special around him recently?”
