Chapter 912 Giving No Hope

"I've already gone abroad. I just wanted to call you and my senior to tell you how grateful I am for your help that night."

"If it weren't for you, I don't know if I would have been able to go abroad smoothly."

Shen Lu has been so busy with her own affairs these past few days that she really hasn't had time to take care of Chen Lan.

She knew that Chen Lan was also very smart, and since she had decided to break ties with that Editor-in-Chief Qi, she knew how to handle it.

So she didn't ask any further questions.

The key point is that if Sheng Qingyan doesn't care about Chen Lan's affairs, then it's pointless for her to care.

"This is all thanks to your own hard work, Sister Chen Lan. You are stronger and more capable than others can imagine."

Ordinary people would find it difficult to cope with this kind of workplace harassment, but Chen Lan had already come up with a plan to fight to the death.

Although going abroad will be more difficult for her, if she takes this path well, she will likely embark on a political career in the future.

Even if she doesn't pursue a career in politics, her future work will be very smooth.

So don't underestimate Chen Lan; she's a very shrewd person.

"The man surnamed Qi is in a terrible state now. Although I have collected some evidence, I certainly cannot do that."

"Someone must have helped me."

Shen Lu understood after hearing what Chen Lan said.

This is to ask if Sheng Qingyan is involved.

"They must be a kind person. Shall I ask around for you?"

Chen Lan smiled knowingly, feeling that Little Deer Sister was the truly kind-hearted person.

Xiao Lu must have understood what she meant to say she would help her find out.

She was really hoping it was made by her senior, but if it wasn't, she wouldn't be too disappointed.

After all, she had no expectations of her senior from the very beginning.

The senior is a really nice person, but if he didn't like her, he wouldn't help her unconditionally.

Doing a good deed might actually cause her to misunderstand.

Shen Lu was unaware of the inner conflict Chen Lan was experiencing.

She hung up the phone and immediately called Sheng Qingyan.

"Brother, Sister Chen Lan called me and said she has settled down abroad."

"From what she said, her trip abroad went smoothly, and that guy surnamed Qi has already received the punishment he deserved."

"However, she suspected that someone was helping her behind the scenes, because the evidence she had collected was not enough to get the man surnamed Qi in."

Sheng Qingyan knew what her sister wanted to ask: "I did help out a little."

"However, it's not just because of Chen Lan."

Sheng Qingyan has his own reasons.

He had the Qi family investigated and found out they were parasites, so he knew he couldn't let them get away with it.

The key point is that they also found out that Qi Zhigang bullied classmates during high school, and one female classmate went missing.

The female student has not been found yet. Her parents have not made any attempt to look for their daughter, and even moved away as soon as they received compensation from the school.

They were worried that the school would demand the compensation money back once their daughter returned safely.

So I ran away quickly.

It's also possible that they only wanted to raise their son after receiving the money, and didn't want to spend a single penny more on their daughter.

Whatever the reason, after the couple moved away with their youngest son, they never inquired about their daughter again, as if she had died outside.

But one person persisted in the investigation: the girl's deskmate at school.

The boy sitting next to her had been looking for this girl. He had a crush on her and simply couldn't believe she would run off with another man.

There were all sorts of rumors circulating at school, and every time the boys heard them, they would explode, frantically explaining to everyone that the girl couldn't have disappeared without a trace.

He believed that someone had harmed the girl.

He has been quietly searching for the truth and is getting close to it.

Even without Sheng Qingyan's help, this male classmate still managed to trace it back to Qi Zhigang.

His family has some influence, and he himself became a policeman after graduating.

He chose this career because of the girl he had a crush on.

Sheng Qingyan simply gave it a push, finding the crucial evidence and handing it to the policeman.

"Why don't you personally check on your junior?"

"It's so tough for a girl to go abroad as a war correspondent."

Shen Lu spoke a very true word for Chen Lan.

Sheng Qingyan was aware of this as well.

Chen Lan is outstanding; there is no doubt about that.

She is also very independent and strong-willed, and she was able to think of this method to get rid of Qi Zhigang's entanglement.

And she did it!

"No need, I'll contact her myself; that will distract her more."

Sheng Qingyan did pay more attention to Chen Lan, but that was all.

Shen Lu: "..." You really have a heart of granite, my big brother.

However, Sheng Qingyan is doing quite well this way.

Since he doesn't like her, he shouldn't leave any room for her to have any expectations, lest a girl's life be ruined by his favors.

Shen Lu just felt that Chen Lan might not be able to forget the charming Sheng Qingyan.

The more gentlemanly he is, the more her heart will flutter.

"I see."

Shen Lu didn't return Chen Lan's call, but only sent her a message.

Chen Lan was somewhat disappointed, but said nothing.

She's abroad, and her senior is in the country; any emotional ties between them are useless.

Let's talk about it after we get back to China.

However, Chen Lan was still very happy to hear that Sheng Qingyan had helped.

Little Deer Sister said her brother had a heart of granite, but that's not actually the case.

In Chen Lan's memory, her senior had always been a very gentle person.

When Shen Lu was chatting with Lu Xingye, she talked to him about the gossip about Sheng Qingyan and Chen Lan.

As a man, Lu Xingye also felt that Sheng Qingyan had done a great job.

"Your brother doesn't want to leave any room for others to fantasize, and it's also for that girl's own good."

Shen Lu understood, and she asked Lu Xingye in return, "What if it were you?"

“If it were anyone else, I would be even more ruthless than your brother.”

Lu Xingye's answer made Shen Lu instinctively feel that he had more to say.

Sure enough, the next second they heard Lu Xingye say, "But if it were you, my choice would be different."

He will let Shen Lu know his feelings without any hesitation.

Only by competing and fighting can you get what you want.

If you don't compete or fight, you'll only allow newcomers to surpass you.

Lu Xingye will not give anyone a chance to take advantage of loopholes.

Shen Lu: "..." Such sweet talk, who said Lu Xingye was a heartless money-making machine?

"Besides, if it were you, I wouldn't let you go abroad."

Shen Lu doesn't need to lift a finger to deal with these small fry; Lu Xingye will handle everything for her.

Shen Lu?

She also wanted to say that if it were her, she certainly wouldn't need to go abroad to become a war correspondent.

Shen Lu only sighed briefly before ending the conversation, but Sheng Yanran brought her the latest news about Yu Tong.

"He really listened to you and went to participate in the talent show."

Yu Tong is really going all out.

Sheng Yanran heard it from her teacher, who was somewhat angry when she mentioned it because Yu Tong had registered without her knowledge.

Now that he's in some kind of training camp and doesn't come to school for training anymore, there's one less male partner, so the teachers have to regroup him.
