Keeping the promise

Zheng Wancheng gently patted Yang Wenju's shoulder, his eyes full of understanding and care, and said softly: "Wenju, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Love can't be rushed, let's take it slow, step by step."

Zhong Chunjie also came over and held Yang Wenju's other hand, her tone firm and warm: "Yes, Wenju. People who truly love each other will not stop loving each other because of the past. Your past is just an experience in your life and cannot define you completely."

Zheng Wancheng continued, "Besides, since Qu Yichen can make your heart beat faster and get along so well with you, it means that he has seen the shining points in you. Those beautiful qualities are what really attract people."

Zhong Chunjie nodded repeatedly: "That's right. You have to believe that you deserve to be loved and deserve a bright future. Don't miss out on the happiness in front of you because of the shadow of the past."

Zheng Wancheng smiled and encouraged, "Let's take it step by step. Don't think too much about establishing a relationship. Let things flow naturally and let time prove everything."

Zhong Chunjie responded: "Yes, maybe in this process, you will find that your worries are unnecessary, and Qu Yichen is the one who can accompany you through your life."

Yang Wenju listened to the caring consolation from her friends, tears welled up in her eyes and her voice choked up a little: "Thank you, I feel more at ease with you by my side."

Zheng Wancheng and Zhong Chunjie smiled at each other, hugged Yang Wenju tightly, and gave her endless warmth and strength.

At this time, Qu Yichen strode over. Yang Wenju was still immersed in the touching feeling brought by her friend's comfort, but when she looked up and saw Qu Yichen, her eyes immediately changed. They were full of panic and shyness, mixed with a hint of joy that was difficult to conceal.

Zheng Wancheng and Zhong Chunjie keenly captured Yang Wenju's instant change, and they exchanged understanding glances.

Zheng Wancheng raised the corners of his mouth slightly and raised his eyebrows slightly, while Zhong Chunjie pursed her lips with a smile in her eyes.

Afterwards, both of them laughed secretly, and that smile contained both teasing for Yang Wenju and blessings and expectations for her relationship.

Qu Yichen approached and saw the meaningful smiles on the faces of the three women. He was confused and asked in confusion: "What are you laughing at?"

Zheng Wancheng quickly waved his hands and said, "Nothing, nothing, I just thought of something fun."

Zhong Chunjie also echoed: "Yes, yes, it's just a little joke."

Yang Wenju's face turned red instantly. She secretly glared at her two friends, but she knew in her heart that they were happy for her.

As Qu Yichen looked at Yang Wenju's shy appearance, he found her even cuter and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.

Zheng Wancheng and Zhong Chunjie understood what he meant and ate faster. Zheng Wancheng ate the food in his bowl with big mouthfuls, and looked up at Yang Wenju and Qu Yichen from time to time, with a hint of cunning in his eyes.

Zhong Chunjie also quickly finished the food on the plate, occasionally exchanging a tacit glance with Zheng Wancheng.

After a while, both of them put down their chopsticks. Zheng Wancheng wiped his mouth with a napkin and said, "Oh, I suddenly remembered that I have something to deal with. I have to go first."

Zhong Chunjie immediately agreed, "Me too. I have to go with her. I'm worried about her being alone. Wenju, take your time eating."

When Yang Wenju heard this, her face turned red and she said angrily, "This is too sudden."

Zheng Wancheng smiled and waved his hands: "It's not sudden, it's not sudden, I just remembered it."

Zhong Chunjie also blinked mischievously: "Yes, I will go to protect her safety."

After saying that, Zheng Wancheng and Zhong Chunjie hurriedly got up and quickly left the restaurant, leaving time and space to Yang Wenju and Qu Yichen.

Yang Wenju looked at the two people's backs as they hurriedly left, feeling both angry and amused, while Qu Yichen looked at her tenderly.

The atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly became a little subtle. Yang Wenju lowered her head slightly and fiddled with the tableware in her hands, trying to break the awkward silence: "The two of them are always so impetuous."

Qu Yichen smiled softly: "But it's good this way, it gives us some time alone."

Yang Wenju blushed slightly, not knowing how to respond. Seeing this, Qu Yichen took the initiative to bring up the topic: "What are your plans for the next two days?"

Yang Wenju nodded gently: "Well, Zhong Chunjie is planning to hold an anniversary celebration, so she might be busy for a while."

The two chatted casually, and the atmosphere gradually became relaxed and harmonious.

On the other side, after Zheng Wancheng and Zhong Chunjie walked out of the restaurant, they did not really do anything, but found a quiet corner and secretly observed the movements in the restaurant.

"Do you think they can succeed?" Zhong Chunjie asked in a low voice.

Zheng Wancheng smiled confidently: "I think there's a chance. Look at how shy Wen Ju is. She must be thinking about Qu Yichen."

Zhong Chunjie nodded: "Yes, I hope they can have a good result."

After a long while, Zheng Wancheng looked at the time and said, "Okay, let's stop peeking here and go do our own things."

Zhong Chunjie responded, "Okay, I hope to hear good news from Wen Ju next time I see her."

The two then left and went to do their own things.
