The speakerphone made it clear to both Liang Qing and Song Zhiji. Liang Qing was surprised that Su Heng would call her, while Song Zhiji suddenly sat up, but her expression remained unchanged.

"Su Heng?" Liang Qing paused for a moment, then asked, "Is there something you need?"

"Do you know about the magazine?" Su Heng's voice came softly from the other end.

"Are you referring to the announcement that's supposed to be made at noon today?"

"Ah."

"I already know about this. Is there anything else?"

Su Heng replied, "There's a banquet tomorrow night, hosted by the company. I think you'll receive the invitation today."

Did Su Heng call specifically to tell her this?

After thinking for a moment, Liang Qing politely thanked him, "Okay, thank you."

After Liang Qing finished speaking, Su Heng didn't reply; there was only the buzzing sound of electricity.

Just as Liang Qing was about to speak again, Su Heng also spoke up: "Will you go?"

I'll go if I have time.

Su Heng replied quickly this time: "If you want to go, contact me and I'll pick you up."

"Wouldn't this be too much trouble for you?" Liang Qing carefully chose her words. "I can go by myself."

"I think it would be better if I picked you up, and besides, I have something to tell you in person."

Liang Qing remained silent for a while. Had something happened to Su Heng?

Why did he seem much more composed during this conversation?

Although Liang Qing didn't know exactly what had happened, he couldn't deny that this banquet was an opportunity.

Liang Qing glanced at Song Zhiji, who was engrossed in eating, and then immediately replied to Su Heng, "Okay, I'll call you if I need to go."

"Okay, goodbye then."

After explaining his purpose, Su Heng seemed to have nothing else to say. He had nothing to say, and Liang Qing didn't have anything else to say in return.

So Liang Qing said goodbye and hung up the phone, then continued eating her breakfast.

While she was talking to Su Heng, Song Zhiji kept his head down, seemingly focused on eating his breakfast, but in reality, he was listening intently to their conversation.

During this time, he wanted to make a sound countless times, to create a little accident so that Su Heng would find out that he was with Liang Qing, but given his current relationship with Liang Qing, doing so would be going too far.

Moreover, deep down he felt that this approach was somewhat despicable and dishonorable, so he chose to remain silent.

In fact, it was very impolite to eavesdrop on other people's phone calls. He knew he should have gotten up and left to give Liang Qing some private space to talk to Su Heng, but his feet felt like they were made of lead and he wouldn't move.

First, Su Heng had repeatedly caused trouble for Liang Qing, and he was worried that Su Heng would harm Liang Qing. Second, Su Heng had previously liked Liang Qing just like him, which made him feel threatened.

If he could fall in love with Liang Qing a second time, why couldn't Su Heng do the same?

Judging from Su Heng's tone just now, he didn't seem to be there to cause trouble for Liang Qing.

Then things get a bit tricky. Su Heng said on the phone just now that he had something to say to Liang Qing. What was it that he wanted to say?

What if Su Heng still has feelings for Liang Qing and takes the opportunity to confess to her?

Just thinking about it made him restless.

He pondered for a while, then felt that he was being too narrow-minded. So what if Su Heng wanted to confess to Liang Qing? Liang Qing would never agree to Su Heng; she clearly didn't like him.

But what if there's even a one in ten thousand chance?

What to do about his resolute decision, his abandoned past, and his feelings for Liang Qing?

After all, he wasn't Liang Qing; he couldn't make the choice for her.
